- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Fold Change in Pulmonary Vascular Resistance Index (PVRI) Week 24 PVRI fold change at Week 24 is calculated as 100\*(PVRI at Week 24 divided by PVRI at baseline).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change from Baseline at Week 24 in Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory version 4.0 (PedsQL 4.0) Generic Core Scales Short Form (SF-15) Baseline and Week 24 The PedsQL 4.0 SF-15 is a questionnaire for quality of life assessment which will assess the general physical, emotional, social and school functioning (15 questions). The questionnaires are adapted for different age groups: toddlers (2-4 years of age), young children (5-7 years of age), children (8-12 years of age), and adolescents (13-14 years of age). It is rated on the scale of 0 to 4 where 0=never, 1=almost never, 2=sometimes, 3=often, and 4=almost always.
Change from Baseline at Week 24 in Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR) Baseline and Week 24 Change from baseline at Week 24 in PVR as a part of pulmonary hemodynamic parameter will be reported.

Change from Baseline at Week 24 in Mean Pulmonary Arterial Pressure (mPAP) Baseline and Week 24 Change from baseline at Week 24 in mPAP as a part of pulmonary hemodynamic parameter will be reported. mPAP is calculated as (2\*diastolic pulmonary arterial pressure plus systolic pulmonary arterial pressure) divided by 3.
Change from Baseline at Week 24 in Cardiac Index (CI) Baseline and Week 24 Change from baseline at Week 24 in CI will be reported. CI is calculated as cardiac output divided by body surface area.
Change from Baseline at Week 24 in Cardiac Output (CO) Baseline and Week 24 The CO was a measured cardiopulmonary hemodynamic parameter. It is the volume of blood expelled by the ventricles of the heart with each beat. It was calculated as the product of stroke volume (output of either ventricle per heartbeat) and the number of beats per minute.
Change from Baseline at Week 24 in Total Pulmonary Resistance (TPR) Baseline and Week 24 TPR is a measured hydrodynamic parameter. Change from baseline at Week 24 in TPR will be reported.
Change from Baseline at Week 24 in Mixed Venous Oxygen Saturation (SvO2) at Rest Baseline and Week 24 SvO2 is a measured hydrodynamic parameter. Change from baseline at Week 24 in Svo2 at rest will be reported.
Improvement in World Health Organization (WHO) Functional Class (FC) from Baseline at Week 24 Baseline and Week 24 Improvement in WHO FC from baseline at Week 24 will be assessed as per the low (I, II), intermediate (III), and high-risk category (IV).
Improvement in Panama FC from Baseline at Week 24 Baseline and Week 24 Improvement in Panama FC from baseline at Week 24 will be assessed as per the low (I, II), intermediate (III), and high-risk category (IV).
Change from Baseline at Week 24 in Physical Activity as Measured by Accelerometry Baseline and Week 24 The physical activity (counts/minute) of the participant is assessed via accelerometer. It is used as a tool to assess functional capacity, disease severity, and prognosis.
Plasma Concentration of Macitentan and Aprocitentan Day 1 and Week 12 Plasma concentration of macitentan and active metabolite (aprocitentan) at all assessed timepoints will be reported.
Change from Baseline to all Assessed Timepoints in Exercise Capacity (6MWD, as Measured by the 6MWT) Baseline up to Week 52 Change from baseline to all assessed timepoints in exercise capacity (6MWD, as measured by the 6MWT) will be reported.
Change from Baseline at Week 24 in Exercise Capacity (6-Minute Walk Distance [6MWD] as Measured by the 6-Minute walk Test [6MWT]). Baseline and Week 24 The 6MWT is a non-encouraged test that measures the distance covered by the participant during a 6-minute walk in developmentally capable children equal or above 6 years of age.
Change from Baseline at Week 24 in N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) Baseline and Week 24 The quantitation of NT-proBNP plasma levels will be performed and reported.
Change from Baseline at Week 24 in Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion (TAPSE) Measured by Echocardiography Baseline and Week 24 TAPSE is a dimension used to evaluate right ventricle (RV) longitudinal systolic function; it measures the extent of systolic motion of the lateral portion of the tricuspid ring towards the apex.

If perception or feeling is stronger than 10, "Maximal" - it can vary beyond 10, example, 12 or still higher (that's why "Absolute maximum" is marked with a dot "•").
