The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability at Week 24 of 2 doses of CHF10067 (zampilimab) in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
It is a phase IIb, multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-arm parallel-group study.
A total of 240 participants with IPF (Idiomatic Pulmonary Fibrosis) will be randomised in approximately 150 investigational sites in North and Latin America, Europe, Asia, and Oceania.
Informed consent: Participant's written informed consent obtained prior to any study-related procedure.
Sex and age: Male or female, of any race and ethnicity, aged ≥40 years with a life expectancy of at least 1 year at screening in the opinion of the Investigator.
Body weight ≥45 kg.
Diagnosis of IPF: Diagnosis as defined by the 2018 and 2022 American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society/Japanese Respiratory Society/Latin American Thoracic Society Guidelines for a maximum 8 years before screening. The most recent High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) ≤6 months prior to screening, reviewed by central reading, should be used to confirm the diagnosis.
Participant with a documented diagnosis of coeliac disease.
Low respiratory tract infection: Documented low respiratory tract infection in the last 4 weeks prior to screening or documented acute exacerbation of IPF (defined as acute worsening or development of dyspnoea typically <1 month duration;
Lung cancer: Active diagnosis or history of lung cancer.
Emphysema: HRCT (refer to inclusion criterion [Diagnosis of IPF]), reviewed by central reading, shows the presence of emphysema ≥20% or that the extent of emphysema is greater than the extent of fibrosis.
