Subjects are between 18 and 75 years of age, have a minimum weight of 40 kg and a Body Mass Index (BMI) <45kg/m2 , have a diagnosis of idiopathic or familial PAH, PAH associated with collagen vascular disease or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, or PAH associated with appetite suppressant or toxin use or PAH associated with repaired congenital systemic-to-pulmonary shunts (repaired >5 years). The baseline 6-minute walk distance must be between 150 and 425 meters, inclusive. Subjects are receiving an approved ERA and/or an approved PDE-5 inhibitor for at least 90 days prior to randomization and are on a stable dose for 30 days.
1)The subject is pregnant or lactating
2)The subject has received epoprostenol, treprostinil, iloprost, beraprost or any other prostacyclin therapy within 30 days of baseline (Except if used during acute vasoreactivity testing)
3)The subject has previously used UT-15C SR
4)The subject has had previous intolerance or significant lack of efficacy to an oral or parenteral prostacyclin analogue that resulted in discontinuation or inability to effectively titrate that therapy
5)The subject has any disease associated with PAH other than collagen vascular disease, HIV infection, or apetite suppressant/toxin use or repaired congenital systemic-to-pulmonary shunts (repaired >5 years) (e.g. portal hypertension, chronic thromboembolic disease, pulmonary veno-occlusive disease etc) or has had an atrial septostomy
6)The subject has a current diagnosis of uncontrolled sleep apnea as defined by their physician
7)The subject has chronic renal insufficiency as defined by either a Screening creatinine value greater than 2.5 mg/dL or the requirement for dialysis
8)The subject has liver function tests (AST or ALT) greater than three times the upper limit of normal at Screening
9)Has anemia as defined by a Screening hemoglobin value of less than 10g/dL, active infection, or any other condition that would interfere with the interpretation of study assessments
10)The subject has musculoskeletal disorder
11)The subject is receiving an investigational drug, has an investigation device in place or has participated in an investigational drug or device study within 30 days prior to screening
