Study Summary

The main purpose of this clinical trial is to examine the feasibility and effects of fulvestrant in post-menopausal women with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The study will evaluate how well the drug is tolerated. The study will evaluate changes in circulating hematopoietic progenitor cells, plasma hormone levels, NT-proBNP, and other plasma biomarkers after the administration of fulvestrant. Changes in tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion, stroke volume index, right ventricular fractional area change, and other echo parameters after fulvestrant administration will be evaluated as well as changes in distance walked in six minutes.

Primary Outcome

Plasma estradiol levels are obtained and measured from blood samples collected from each participant. Difference in change from baseline to 9 weeks in plasma estradiol levels
