•-Ability to understand the study information and study objectives
•-Hemodynamic criteria: will be measured during right heart catheter examination: pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) > 240dyn x sec x cm-5, mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) = 25mmHg

•-Simultaneous participation in another drug therapy study,
•-Simultaneous participation in another non-drug study, which would oppose participation in this study
•-Participation within one month after completion of another therapy study
•-Severe hepatic impairment
•-Existing increase in liver aminotransferase values (aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and / or alanine aminotransferase (ALT))> 3 × ULN
•-Systolic blood pressure <95 mmHg at the beginning of treatment
•-Pulmonary hypertension associated with idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (PH-IIP)
•-anemia (Hb <10 g / dl)
•-Accompanying medication with potential interaction with macitentan and riociguat in accordance with the relevant information of the specialist information
•-Severe renal impairment
