What information should we be collecting from clinical trials to better inform drug development in this space? That’s the question our PH community explored to close out the Symposium. Looking at how the right data can help us understand whether new treatments are working, who they may help most, and how they could shape future PH therapies. #PVRISymposium

Welcome to Genetics-inspired Therapeutics for PH! Today we’re celebrating it being 25 years since the identification and publication of mutations in BMPR2 in PAH. A discovery that transformed how we understand the genetics of PH. Today we’ll explore what that means now, and where the field goes next, including: ▪️ Genetic insights into pulmonary vascular disease ▪️ Therapeutic agents targeting the TGF-β/BMP pathway ▪️ Developing therapeutic agents to target other genetically validated pathways We’re delighted to begin with leadership from Brad Maron, setting the tone for a focused day of science and collaboration. #PVRISymposium
