Despite increasing therapeutic options and evolving treatment strategies, including targeting 3 therapeutic pathways, in the management of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), morbidity and mortality have remained unacceptably high. Sotatercept is a first-in-class, novel activin signaling inhibitor approved for treating PAH based on evolving efficacy and safety evidence. This state-of-the-art review summarizes the current understanding of the mechanism of action, the impact on outcomes that improve how patients feel, function, and survive, and the safety and adverse event profile to inform readers of this breakthrough novel therapy.
