Title: A Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Six Months Treatment With the Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor STI571 for the Treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)
Brief Summary: This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of imatinib mesylate in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension

Mean pulmonary artery pressure greater than or equal to 25 mmHg; Pulmonary vascular resistance greater than 3 mmHg/L/min; Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure or left ventricular end diastolic pressure less than 15 mmHg;

* 6-minute walk distance of at least 150 meters, but no more than 450 meters;
* Total lung capacity greater than or equal to 70% and FEV1 greater than or equal to 65% of predicted normal;

Exclusion Criteria:

* Portopulmonary hypertension;
* Subjects with PAH due to or associated with coronary artery disease, left heart disease, interstitial lung disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, veno-occlusive disease, chronic thromboembolic disease, or sleep apnea;
* Bosentan (Tracleer®), sildenafil (Viagra®), or chronic prostanoid therapy within 4 weeks of screening;
* Serum ALT or AST lab value that is greater than 1.5 times the upper limit of normal;
* Contraindication to treatment with an endothelin receptor antagonist;
* Subject with cardiovascular, hepatic, renal, hematologic, gastrointestinal, immunologic, endocrine, metabolic, or central nervous system disease that may adversely affect the safety of the subject;
* Participation in a clinical study involving another investigational drug within 4 weeks of screening.
B: Main Inclusion Criteria:

* Male or female of at least 18 years of age
* Confirmed diagnosis of portopulmonary hypertension

Main Exclusion Criteria:

* Severe hepatic impairment
* Severe obstructive or restrictive lung disease
* Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease

* ALT/AST \>= 3 x ULN
* Bilirubin \>= 3 mg/dL at Screening
* Any known factor or disease that might interfere with treatment compliance, study conduct, or interpretation of results
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Diagnosis of PAH of either primary (idiopathic), familial or secondary to systemic sclerosis (excluding those with marked pulmonary fibrosis) according to World Conference on Pulmonary Hypertension classification (Venice, 2003).
* Symptoms with a WHO class of II-IV

Exclusion Criteria:

* Use of unspecific phosphodiesterase inhibitors (for example, pentoxyfillin, enoximon, milrinone or pimobendan) during the study

* Pre-existing lung diseases, including parasitic diseases affecting lungs, asthma, congenital abnormalities of the lungs, chest, and diaphragm.
* Pulmonary artery or valve stenosis; pulmonary venous hypertension; chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension
* Acute heart failure or chronic left sided heart failure; congenital or acquired valvular or myocardial disease
* Severe (systemic) arterial hypertension (\> 200 mmHg (systolic) or \> 120 mmHg (diastolic)) Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply

2. Six-minute walk test (6MWT) distance ≥ 150 m and ≤ 450 m
3. PAH confirmed by right heart catheterization (RHC) performed at the study site within 3 months of the randomization visit and defined as:

   * Mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) ≥ 25 mmHg
   * Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) ≤ 15 mmHg measured by RHC or left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) ≤ 15 mmHg measured by left heart catheterization, if PCWP measurement is not reliable
   * Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) at rest ≥ 160 dyn.sec/cm5
