From the Research

What is Winrevair used for

  • Winrevair, also known as sotatercept, is used for the treatment of adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) Group 1, on top of background PAH therapy 2, 3, 4
  • The primary goal of using Winrevair is to increase exercise capacity, improve WHO functional class, and reduce the risk of clinical worsening events in patients with PAH 2, 3, 4
  • Winrevair works by sequestering free activins, which helps to restore the balance between the activin proliferative pathway and the bone morphogenic protein (BMP) antiproliferative pathway in the pulmonary arterial circulation 2
  • Winrevair has been shown to significantly improve the 6-min walk distance in patients with PAH after 24 weeks, with a mean change increase of 40.1 meters in the experimental group versus 1.4 meters decrease in the placebo group 3
  • Common adverse events associated with Winrevair include epistaxis, telangiectasia, increased hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell levels, and dizziness 3, 4
