The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of sotatercept (MK-7962, formerly called ACE-011) treatment (plus background pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) therapy) versus placebo (plus background PAH therapy) on time to clinical worsening (TTCW) in participants who are newly diagnosed with PAH and are at intermediate or high risk of disease progression.

5. Diagnosis of PAH within 12 months of screening and on stable doses of a double or
triple combination of background PAH therapies and diuretics (if any) for at least
90 days prior to screening

6. Six-minute walk distance ≥ 150 m repeated twice at screening at least 4 hours apart,
but no longer than 1 week apart, and both values are within 15% of each other
(calculated from the highest value)

7. Females of childbearing potential must meet the following criteria:

prior to starting study drug administration; she must agree to ongoing urine or
serum pregnancy testing during the course of the study and until 8 weeks after
the last dose of the study drug

- If sexually active with a male partner, have used highly effective
contraception without interruption, for at least 28 days prior to starting the
investigational product AND agreed to use the same highly effective
contraception in combination with a barrier method during the study (including
dose interruptions) and for 16 weeks (112 days) after discontinuation of study
treatment

duration of the study and for at least 16 weeks (112 days) after the last dose
of study treatment

- Agree to use a condom, defined as a male latex condom or nonlatex condom NOT
made out of natural (animal) membrane (e.g., polyurethane), during sexual
contact with a pregnant female or a female of childbearing potential while
participating in the study, during dose interruptions, and for at least 16
weeks (112 days) following investigational product discontinuation, even if he
has undergone a successful vasectomy
