Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

This is a Ph 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled global multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of PIPE-791 in participants with a diagnosis of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) with or without background treatment.

ORJ-001 is a new class of drugs intended for the treatment of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This is a Phase 2 study in two parts; the objective of Part A will determine if ORJ-001 is well-tolerated by patients and how long the drug stays in the body. Part B will test how well the drug affects lung function. Animal models of IPF have shown that ORJ-001 can repair damaged lung tissue and improve markers of lung function.

The primary purpose is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NAL ER for the treatment of chronic cough in participants with IPF.

This study is based on the previously constructed digital rehabilitation management platform, scientifically evaluating the clinical efficacy of guided technology in improving IPF exercise endurance, and forming high-quality clinical evidence.

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.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Rentosertib (INS018\_055) administered orally in Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if Rentosertib (INS018\_055) works to treat patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis in adults. It will also learn about the safety of Rentosertib (INS018\_055). In this study, Rentosertib (INS018\_055) will be compared to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to investigate if Rentosertib (INS018\_055) works to treat Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.

Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) results from a diverse group of health conditions and affects the lives of patients (including those who are post lung transplant), caregivers and family members. The Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation Community Registry will offer an online portal where participants can self-enroll and directly contribute information about their experience with PF to be compiled into a longitudinal data set for use by researchers.

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the inspiratory flow rate capability in patients with pulmonary fibrosis (IPF or PPF) when using inhaler devices with different resistances. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the peak inspiratory flow rate (PIFR) that patients with pulmonary fibrosis can achieve through a medium-resistance inhaler device? What is the peak inspiratory flow rate (PIFR) that patients with pulmonary fibrosis can achieve through a high-resistance inhaler device? What is the inspiratory time (EIT) for each resistance level? Participants will use a portable device called In-Check™ DIAL G16, which simulates the resistance of different dry powder inhalers. Each participant will perform two breathing tests at a medium-resistance setting and two breathing tests at a high-resistance setting, with a 2-minute rest between settings. The device measures how fast air is breathed in and how long each breath lasts. This study will enroll 60 patients diagnosed with IPF or PPF at Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital. Participants will be involved for approximately 30 to 60 minutes, including training on how to use the device and the breathing tests. The study involves no drugs or invasive procedures.

This trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety and preliminary efficacy of inhaled Nintedanib Dry Powder Inhalation (DPI) in adults with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Participants are randomized to receive either 2 mg BID, 4 mg BID, or matching placebo for 12 weeks, followed by a 24-week open-label extension in which all participants receive active treatment. The primary focus is on safety-particularly bronchospasm events, lung function changes (FEV1, FEV1/FVC), and adverse event rates and assessing the effectiveness of nintedanib DPI in treating IPF.

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of metformin in 400 participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who are at high risk of adverse clinical outcomes based on a proteomic classifier. The primary objective is to assess the safety and efficacy of metformin compared to placebo in participants with IPF who are at high-risk for adverse clinical events. Approximately 800 participants with IPF will be screened. 400 participants who are at high risk for adverse clinical events (proteomic signature present) will be randomized into receiving metformin (n\~200) or matching placebo (n\~200). Participants that meet the eligibility criteria but do not have the proteomic signature (proteomic signature absent) will be contacted by phone at 12 and 24 months to review medical history.

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a rare, long-lasting lung disease that causes scarring of lung tissue, shortness of breath, and loss of lung function. IPF leads to significant loss of quality of life and shortened lifespan. This study is a platform study evaluating different types of treatments in patients with IPF. A platform study is a type of study that uses a single master protocol to evaluate different study treatments allowing for new study treatments or substudies to be added or closed over time. The main goals of the study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability (the degree to which the adverse symptoms can be handled by the patients during the study) and efficacy (how well study treatment works) of the study treatments, including ABBV-142 in Substudy 1 (SS1). ABBV-142 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of IPF. In SS1, participants will be randomly assigned to one of the 2 groups to receive either ABBV-142 or a matching placebo. This study is "double-blind", meaning that neither the participants nor the study doctors know who is given which study treatment. Approximately 165 adult participants with IPF will be enrolled in approximately 125 sites across the world. Participants will receive ABBV-142 or matching placebo for 52 weeks during the double-blind treatment period. Eligible participants may receive ABBV-142 for 52 weeks in open-label treatment period. All participants will be followed for 120 days. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

Ifetroban prevents and treats lung fibrosis due to multiple causes (bleomycin, genetic, radiation). The safety and efficacy of oral ifetroban will be assessed in patients with IPF.

The purpose of the study is to identify genetic and biologic markers that may predict the loss of lung function due to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The studies will compare genetic and biologic markers of samples to changes in symptoms. The ultimate goal is to predict if or when patients are likely to experience a rapid decline in lung function due to disease progression.

The CT-IPF ANTHEM study is designed to prospectively compare PCDCT to HRCT scan in the identification of specific ILD diagnosis discussed during the multidisciplinary discussion to increase diagnostic confidence and reduce unclassifiable ILD cases.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic lung disease characterized by progressive scarring. Sometimes, patients experience a sudden and severe worsening of their symptoms, known as an acute exacerbation (AE-IPF), which carries a high risk of mortality. Currently, doctors lack reliable bedside tools at the time of hospital admission to predict which patients will improve with standard care and which will require early escalation of treatment. This prospective observational study aims to determine if simple, widely available blood tests can be used as biomarkers to predict patient outcomes during an acute exacerbation. Researchers will focus on complete blood count (CBC)-derived inflammatory indexes, which are calculated ratios of different types of blood cells (such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio). Participants hospitalized with AE-IPF will have their blood cell counts and oxygen levels (PaO2/FiO2 ratio) monitored on days 0 (admission), 3, 7, and 14. The study will evaluate the correlation between the change in these inflammatory indexes and the change in oxygen levels over the first week of hospitalization. Additionally, it will assess how accurately the admission blood test values, compared to the changes seen by day 3, can predict in-hospital clinical deterioration (such as the need for a ventilator, transfer to the intensive care unit, or death). The aim is to find out if tracking changes in these simple blood test indexes can provide clinicians with a cost-effective, early-warning tool to guide treatment decisions for patients suffering from AE-IPF.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety, tolerability, PK and immunogenicity of SV001 compare to placebo in Chinese healthy adult volunteers.

This is a cross-sectional study that will be conducted across Japan using an online patient-reported outcome questionnaire. This study tries to find out the attitudes toward and experiences of the emotional and/or social impact of side effects associated with antifibrotic (AF) treatment among Japanese patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)/Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis (PPF), and how are these attitudes associated with patients' individual characteristics.

The purpose of the study is to see if imaging with fluorine-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose (\[18F\] FDG) and fluorine-18 Displacement Per Atom (\[18F\]DPA-714) using positron emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT) will show lung inflammation and fibrosis in patients diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This study may help physicians and researchers better understand how best to treat patients with IPF in the future.

A Phase 2a, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of the Safety and Efficacy of MTX-463 in Participants with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic progressive fibrotic lung disease resulting in increasing shortness of breath, cough, and low oxygen levels as a result of lung tissue scarring . This will be a single-center randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study of 20 weeks including up to 4 weeks for screening, followed by 12 weeks of oral artesunate treatment across 3 dose levels (dose escalation every 4 weeks), and 4 weeks of a washout (follow-up) period in participants with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of artesunate at 3 dose levels, and to select the dose(s) to carry forward into additional clinical testing. The secondary objective includes exploring the blood biomarkers present in participants with IPF at baseline and to investigate how those biomarkers change following artesunate treatment. The exploratory objectives include assessing the changes in the K-BILD and Leicester cough questionnaire scores and change in pulmonary function after artesunate administration.

Background: Interstitial lung disease affects the tissues that aid the transfer of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the air and the bloodstream. The disease can cause fibrosis, a thickening and scarring of lung tissue. Fibrosis often continues getting worse, and most people with this disease die in 3 to 5 years. Objective: To test a study drug (hymecromone) in people with interstitial lung disease or lung fibrosis. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with interstitial lung disease or lung fibrosis. Design: Participants will have at least 7 clinic visits over 5 months. Participants will have screening and baseline visits. They will have blood tests and tests of their heart function. They will give a sputum sample. Other tests will include: Spirometry: Participants will breathe in and out through a mouthpiece to measure how much air they can hold in their lungs and how hard they can breathe. Diffusion capacity of lungs for carbon monoxide: Participants will breathe in a gas that contains a small amount of carbon monoxide. Then they will breathe through a mouthpiece. This test measures how well oxygen moves from the air into the blood. Resting energy expenditure. Participants will lie still for 30 minutes with a clear dome over their head. This test measures the calories their body burns at rest. 6-minute walk test. Participants will walk at their normal pace for 6 minutes. Their vital signs and blood oxygen levels will be checked. Hymecromone is a tablet taken by mouth. Participants will take 2 tablets every morning and 2 tablets every night for 12 weeks. Participants who decide to continue longer may enter an optional 12 week extension phase, for a maximum treatment time of 24 weeks. Tests will be repeated at study visits.

People with interstitial lung disease (ILD) can sometimes experience a sudden and severe worsening of their breathing. While this can be caused by a flare-up of the lung disease itself, it can also be caused by a blood clot in the lungs, known as a pulmonary embolism (PE). It is often difficult for doctors to tell the difference between these two emergencies because their symptoms, such as shortness of breath and low oxygen levels, are very similar. Traditional scoring systems used to predict blood clots are often less accurate for patients who already have chronic lung diseases like ILD. The main goal of this observational study is to find better, more reliable ways to predict which ILD patients with worsening breathing symptoms actually have a pulmonary embolism. Researchers will observe 70 adult patients with ILD who come to the hospital with a sudden worsening of their symptoms (such as shortness of breath, chest pain, or low oxygen) and who require a specific type of CT scan (Computed Tomography Pulmonary Angiography, or CTPA) as part of their standard medical care to check for blood clots. The study will compare the patients whose CT scan confirms a blood clot to those whose scan does not show a clot. By comparing these two groups, the research team will evaluate various clinical signs, routine blood tests, novel inflammatory markers, and heart/lung imaging details. Identifying strong predictors of pulmonary embolism in this specific group of patients could help doctors diagnose lung blood clots faster and more accurately, leading to better clinical decision-making and improved patient outcomes

Inflammatory lung diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), are major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Their development and progression are influenced by environmental exposures, such as cigarette smoking and air pollution, as well as genetic susceptibility. Despite advances in disease management, early diagnosis, accurate differential diagnosis, personalized treatment, and continuous monitoring remain significant clinical challenges. This project aims to improve the management of inflammatory lung diseases through the development and validation of innovative diagnostic, monitoring, and therapeutic approaches. The study will identify and validate multi-omics biomarkers for the differential diagnosis and prognosis of COPD, IPF, and related respiratory diseases, using machine learning techniques to develop diagnostic and prognostic biochips. Environmental determinants, including indoor and outdoor exposome factors, will be assessed to better understand their contribution to pulmonary inflammation and disease progression. The project will also develop nanotechnology-based therapeutic formulations combined with precision inhalation devices and integrate a telemedicine platform for real-time monitoring of clinical and environmental data, enabling the early detection of exacerbations and supporting personalized disease management. The expected outcomes include improved diagnostic accuracy, enhanced risk stratification, personalized therapeutic strategies, reduced disease exacerbations, and improved quality of life for patients with inflammatory lung diseases.

This study will explore how adults in Japan with pulmonary fibrosis decide whether to continue or discontinue antifibrotic therapy after experiencing antifibrotic therapy-related adverse events.
