Active clinical trials for "Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis"

The purpose of this clinical trial is to administer a sodium pyruvate nasal spray that eliminates nasal oxidative stresses, caused by oxygen radicals, and demonstrate the efficacy of sodium pyruvate to reduce coughing and increase lung functions in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. This will be a 21-day double-blinded randomized placebo-controlled trial designed to determine if patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis treated with 20mM sodium pyruvate in 0.9% sodium chloride nasal spray solution will have reduced chronic coughing, as well as increased lung function (FEV1, FVC endpoints of 12% or more within the first week) and improved FEV1/FVC ratios.

This is a Phase 2a, single -center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate type 1 collagen deposition in the lungs following once-daily treatment with PLN-74809 for 12-weeks. This study is occurring at Massachusetts General Hospital.

A participant- and investigator-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter, platform study to investigate efficacy, safety, and tolerability of various single treatments in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Based on preclinical data, investigators hypothesize that apoptosis resistance in monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) have a decisive role in the development of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Specifically, macrophages from subjects with IPF have increased expression of Bcl-2 in mitochondria. In preclinical models of IPF, a conditional deletion of Bcl-2 in MDMs reverses established fibrosis by inducing apoptosis. Additional evidence to suggest that Bcl-2 expression in MDM mitochondria is a therapeutic target for IPF as administration of the Bcl-2 inhibitor, ABT-199 (Venetoclax), showed marked efficacy in preclinical models of IPF by inducing apoptosis of MDMs and reversing established fibrosis. ABT-199 is an orally available mimetic of the BH3 domain of Bcl-2, which is the domain the anchors Bcl-2 in the mitochondria to inhibit apoptosis. ABT-199 has shown therapeutic efficacy and good safety and tolerability in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Investigators anticipate that treatment with ABT-199 could result in significant benefit for IPF patients that have a life expectancy of 3-5 years. As there is no curative therapy for IPF, this clinical trial has the potential to substantially alter treatment approaches in patients with IPF.

Main purpose -To explore the safety and tolerance of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Secondary purpose To explore the preliminary efficacy of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and to recommend the appropriate dose of cell therapy for subsequent clinical studies. To explore the immunogenicity of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell injection in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This study adopts a clinical research design of multi center, single dose and increasing dose. 18 qualified IPF subjects will be included in this study.

The use of Anlotinib hydrochloride capsules for the treatment of IPF/PF-ILDs, with FVC as the primary efficacy endpoint to evaluate its effectivenes

The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of vixarelimab compared with placebo on lung function in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and in participants with systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD). Participants who complete 52-weeks of treatment in the Double-blind Treatment (DBT) period can choose to enroll in the optional Open-label Extension (OLE) period to receive treatment with vixarelimab for another 52 weeks.

This study a randomized, double-blind, four arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LYT-100 compared to pirfenidone or placebo in adults with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous SHR-1906 in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The study is divided into four stages: screening period, baseline period, treatment period and safe follow-up period. It is planned that 108 patients will be randomly assigned to the following three treatment groups for treatment

IPF is a progressive scarring lung condition causing coughing and breathlessness. IPF patients often have reflux disease meaning stomach acid may be breathed into the lungs, potentially damaging them. Medicines which stop stomach acid production, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), can be used to reduce reflux symptoms including heartburn. Some researchers suggest PPIs also reduce IPF progression. This research aims to see if IPF progresses slower if treated with PPIs. Based on the results, we will be able to recommend whether or not IPF patients should take PPIs. This trial will involve 298 IPF patients from approximately 37 UK hospitals. At the beginning of the study, we will ask patients to start performing weekly breathing tests at home using equipment provided, and ask those with a cough to use a device to count the number of times they cough in 24hours. We will ask them to answer two questions rating their coughing and breathlessness, and complete questionnaires on their coughing, IPF, sleep habits and general condition. People will be given a PPI, called lansoprazole, or dummy tablets, twice per day for 12 months. They will be given a leaflet telling them what to do about reflux symptoms. At the end of the study, we will repeat these tests and analyse the results. We will record any side effects people may get. If people suffer side effects, they can reduce the dose. People taking medicines that interact with PPIs or have other serious medical conditions won't be able to participate. People receiving PPIs will only be able to participate if they can stop taking their medication without their heartburn returning.
