United Therapeutics Corporation Presents New Data Spanning Pulmonary Hypertension Treatment, Lung Donor Expansion, and Xenotransplantation at ISHLT 2026
An interim analysis of the PHINDER study identifies non-invasive measures that may facilitate earlier detection and management of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD)
An interim analysis from the ARTISAN study indicates that early, high-dose treatment with treprostinil reduced afterload, improved right ventricular function, and reversed cardiac remodeling in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)
Additional presentations include comparing real-world outcomes for patients with ILD with and without PH after lung transplantation and data from
"The data from ARTISAN and PHINDER suggest that earlier detection and intervention are key to improving outcomes for patients with PH. Whether it is identifying PH sooner in patients with ILD or indicating that aggressive, early treatment with treprostinil can meaningfully reverse right heart remodeling in PAH, we believe these findings have the potential to reshape how these devastating diseases are managed,” said

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements included in this press release that are not historical in nature are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, among others: our expectation that an interim analysis of the PHINDER study identifies non-invasive measures that may facilitate earlier detection and management of PH in patients with ILD; the potential that earlier detection and intervention will improve outcomes for patients with PH; our belief that early treatment with treprostinil can meaningfully reverse right heart remodeling in PAH; our expectation that findings from the ARTISAN and PHINDER studies have the potential to reshape how PAH and PH-ILD are managed; and our goals of expanding the supply of transplantable organs, developing practical technologies that can save lives, creating long-term shareholder value, and operating with sustainable practices. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, such as those described in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, that could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results. Consequently, such forward-looking statements are qualified by the cautionary statements, cautionary language, and risk factors set forth in our periodic reports and documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K.
