Study Summary

The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and device performance of the GeNO nitrosyl delivery system during RHC. Secondary considerations are to confirm that inhaled NO generated by the GeNO nitrosyl delivery system, reduces PVR in patients with reversible PH, contains levels of NO2 well below the upper level of acceptable exposure. Further, the study aims to demonstrate that patient response to inhaled NO can be used as a diagnostic tool with which to determine the proper course of medical action in patients with chronic heart failure. Patients with chronic heart failure accompanied by pulmonary hypertension and increased pulmonary vascular resistance have a number of possible medical therapies available to them. The least invasive, and therefore most appealing, option is standard management with medication and observation. Alternatively, implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) may be considered, either as a permanent solution or as a bridging strategy to the final option, orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT). It is often unclear which route is the best medical choice, and a tool to help physicians and patients choose between these alternatives would be greatly beneficial. It has been shown that chronic heart failure patients that demonstrate irreversible pulmonary hypertension, even in the presence of vasodilators, exhibit adverse outcomes after OHT (Tsai et al., 2002; Ericson et al., 1990; Murali et al., 1996). It follows that patient response to pulmonary vasodilators can, and should be used to classify patients as potential candidates for OHT. In particular, patient response to inhaled NO, a known pulmonary vasodilator, can be used as a diagnostic tool to assist in deciding which medical route to take. With this in mind, the current study aims to demonstrate whether or not NO generated by the GeNO nitrosyl delivery system effects a reduction in pulmonary hypertension due to increased pulmonary vascular resistance
