Background PAH therapy should be stable at least 90 days prior to screening and remain stable throughout the study~ * Stable diuretic therapy is defined as no addition of a new diuretic and no switching of a pre-existent oral diuretic to parenteral administration; however, dose adjustments (up or down) in pre-existent oral diuretics are acceptable~* 6-Minute Walk Distance (6MWD) ≥ 150 and ≤ 500 m repeated twice at screening (measured at least 4 hours apart, but no longer than 1 week), and both values are within 15% of each other (calculated from the highest value)~* Females of childbearing potential must:~  * Have 2 negative urine or serum pregnancy tests as verified by the investigator prior to starting study therapy; she must agree to ongoing urine or serum pregnancy testing during the study and until 8 weeks after the last dose of the study drug~ * If sexually active, have used, and agree to use, highly effective contraception without interruption, for at least 28 days prior to starting the investigational product, during the study (including dose interruptions), and for 16 weeks (112 days) after discontinuation of study treatment~ * Refrain from breastfeeding a child or donating blood, eggs, or ovum for the duration of the study and for at least 16 weeks (112 days) after the last dose of study treatment~ * Male participants must:~ * 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~ * Refrain from donating blood or sperm for the duration of the study and for 16 weeks (112 days) after the last dose of study treatment~ * Ability to adhere to study visit schedule and understand and comply with all protocol requirements~ * Ability to understand and provide written informed consent~Key Exclusion Criteria:~* Diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension WHO Groups 2, 3, 4, or 5~* Diagnosis of the following PAH Group 1 subtypes: human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated PAH and PAH associated with portal hypertension. Exclusions in PAH Group I should also include schistosomiasis associate PAH and pulmonary veno occlusive disease~* Hemoglobin (Hgb) at screening above gender-specific upper limit of normal (ULN), per local laboratory test~* Baseline platelet count \< 50,000/mm\^3 (\< 50.0 x 109/L) at screening~* Uncontrolled systemic hypertension as evidenced by sitting systolic blood pressure \> 160 mmHg or sitting diastolic blood pressure \> 100 mmHg during screening visit after a period of rest~* Baseline systolic blood pressure \< 90 mmHg at screening~* Pregnant or breastfeeding women~* Any of the following clinical laboratory values at the screening visit:~  * Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 30 mL/min/m2 (as defined by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease \[MDRD\] equation)~ * Serum alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, or total bilirubin levels \> 3 × ULN (bilirubin criterion waived if there is a documented history of Gilbert's syndrome)~* Currently enrolled in or have completed any other investigational product study within 30 days for small molecule drugs or within 5 half-lives for biologics prior to the date of signed informed consent~* Prior exposure to sotatercept (ACE-011) or luspatercept (ACE 536) and/or excipients or known allergic reaction to either one~* History of full pneumonectomy~* Pulmonary function test (PFT) values of forced vital capacity (FVC) \< 60% predicted at the screening visit or within 6 months prior to the screening visit. If PFT is not available, a chest CT scan showing more than mild interstitial lung disease (ILD) at the screening visit or 1 year prior to it~* Initiation of an exercise program for cardiopulmonary rehabilitation within 90 days prior to the screening visit or planned initiation during the study (participants who are stable in the maintenance phase of a program and who will continue for the duration of the study are eligible)~* History of more than mild obstructive sleep apnea that is untreated~* Known history of portal hypertension or chronic liver disease, including hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C (with evidence of recent infection and/or active virus replication), defined as mild to severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class A-C)~* History of restrictive, constrictive or congestive cardiomyopathy~* History of atrial septostomy within 180 days prior to the screening visit~* Electrocardiogram (ECG) with Fridericia's corrected QT interval (QTcF) \> 500 ms during the screening period~* Personal or family history of long QT syndrome (LQTS) or sudden cardiac death~* Left ventricular ejection fraction \< 45% on historical echocardiogram within 6 months prior to the screening visit~* Any symptomatic coronary disease events (prior myocardial infarction, percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, or cardiac anginal chest pain) within 6 months prior to the screening visit. Note: Anginal pain can be ignored as an exclusion criterion if coronary angiography shows no obstructions~* Cerebrovascular accident within 3 months prior to the screening visit~* Acutely decompensated heart failure within 30 days prior to the screening visit, as per investigator assessment~* Significant (≥ 2+ regurgitation) mitral regurgitation or aortic regurgitation valvular disease~* Received intravenous inotropes (e.g., dobutamine, dopamine, norepinephrine, vasopressin) within 30 days prior to the screening visit
