```

## Arms

- **Inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO)** (ACTIVE_COMPARATOR) — Pulsed inhaled iNO30, 45 and 75 mcg/kg Ideal Body Weight (IBW)/hour (hr)
- **Placebo** (PLACEBO_COMPARATOR) — Pulsed inhaled N2, 99.999% gas
- **Long Term Follow Up** (ACTIVE_COMPARATOR) — Pulsed inhaled iNO30, 45 or 75 mcg/kg IBW/hr

## Interventions

- **INOpulse®** (COMBINATION_PRODUCT) — Patients will be treated by means of an INOpulse® device using an INOpulse® nasal cannula
- **Placebo** (COMBINATION_PRODUCT) — Patients will be treated by means of an INOpulse® device using an INOpulse® nasal cannula
- **Long Term Follow Up** (COMBINATION_PRODUCT) — Patients will be treated by means of an INOpulse® device using an INOpulse® nasal cannula

## Primary Outcomes

- **Efficacy of escalating doses of iNO in patient's life participation as assessed in minutes per day of moderate to vigorous activity.** _(time frame: Change from baseline to week 8 or 16)_ — Part 1 - Blinded Treatment Period
