Experimental: Treprostinil Palmitil
Participants will be administered TPIP once per day at a starting dose of 80 micrograms (μg). Participants will be titrated up to the highest tolerated dose for each individual participant of between 80 μg and 640 μg during the initial 3 weeks of treatment. The overall treatment period will be 16 weeks.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years to 75 Years (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Males and females must be ≥ 18 to ≤ 75 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent form (ICF).
- Diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with interstitial lung disease (ILD) (including idiopathic interstitial pneumonia [IIP], idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [IPF], connective tissue disease [CTD], sarcoidosis).
- Male and female participants must use contraceptives that are consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
- Male participants:
Male participants who are not sterile, with female partners of childbearing potential, must be using effective contraception from Day 1 to at least 90 days after the last dose of study drug.
Male participants with women of child bearing potential (WOCBP) partner must use a condom in order to avoid potential exposure to embryo/fetus.
- Female participants: Women must be postmenopausal (defined as no menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause), surgically sterile, (ie, post-tubal ligation for at least 12 months) or using highly effective contraception methods (ie, methods that alone or in combination achieve <1% unintended pregnancy rates per year when used consistently and correctly) from Day 1 to at least 90 days after the last dose of study drug.
- Capable of giving signed informed consent that includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the ICF and in this protocol.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Primary diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
- Allergy, or documented hypersensitivity or contraindication to TPIP or treprostinil (TRE) or mannitol (an excipient of the TPIP formulation).
- Received or currently treated with riociguat, endothelial receptor antagonists, selexipag, phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitors and/or prostacyclin analogues within 30 days prior to Screening.
- Started therapy with pirfenidone or nintedanib < 90 days prior to Screening, OR, if already receiving either medication, there is a dose change within 30 days of Screening Visit
- Any known ventricular or supraventricular tachyarrhythmia (except for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation), and/or any symptomatic bradycardia.
- History of heart disease including left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 40% or clinically significant valvular, constrictive, or symptomatic atherosclerotic heart disease (eg, stable angina, myocardial infarction, etc).
- Participation in a cardiopulmonary rehabilitation program within 30 days of the first Screening Visit.
- Acutely decompensated heart failure within 30 days of Screening Visit.
- Active and current symptomatic COVID-19 and/or previous diagnosis of moderate to severe disease, or hospitalization due to COVID-19.
- Supplemental oxygen requirement > 10L/min at Screening.
- Exacerbation of underlying lung disease or active pulmonary or upper respiratory infection within 30 days of the first dose of study drug (may be rescreened at appropriate time).
- Current or recent (past 30 days) lower respiratory tract infection (may be rescreened at appropriate time).
- Any form of congenital heart disease or congenital heart defect (repaired or unrepaired) other than a patent foramen ovale.
- History of alcohol or drug abuse within 6 months prior to Screening.
- Current use of cigarettes (as defined by Center for Disease Control (CDC)) or e-cigarettes
- Participants who currently inhale marijuana (recreational or medical).
- Acute or chronic impairment (other than dyspnea), limiting the ability to comply with study requirements, in particular with 6-minute walk test (6MWT) (eg, angina pectoris, claudication, musculoskeletal disorder, need for walking aids).
