Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

This trial tests whether a combination of plasma exchange, rituximab, and intravenous immunoglobulins can improve survival in people hospitalized in intensive care with a severe acute exacerbation of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). IPF is a progressive lung disease, and thes…

This phase 3 trial tests whether an inhaled combination of budesonide (a corticosteroid) and formoterol (a bronchodilator) can prevent acute respiratory failure in hospitalized adults with pneumonia and low blood oxygen levels. Participants receive either the active treatment or …

This clinical trial is testing an investigational drug called bexotegrast (PLN-74809) in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a disease that causes progressive lung scarring and breathing difficulties. The study will compare different doses of bexotegrast against a pl…

This study tested a new medicine, GSK3915393, in 158 people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a chronic lung disease that causes scarring and breathing difficulty. The goal was to see if the drug could slow lung function decline compared to a placebo. The trial was termin…

This study tested the drug vixarelimab against a placebo in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD). The goal was to see if it could preserve lung function over 52 weeks. The trial was terminated early, …

This study tested new single treatments for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a lung disease that causes scarring and makes breathing hard. It included 46 adults aged 40 and older with mild to moderate IPF. The main goal was to see if the treatments improved lung function, mea…

This study tested an experimental drug called HZN-825 in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a lung disease that causes scarring and makes breathing hard. The trial aimed to see if the drug could slow the decline in lung function over a year. About 153 adults with IP…

This study tested an experimental drug called BI 1839100 in adults with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) who have a chronic cough. Participants took different doses of the drug or a placebo for 12 weeks. The goal was to see if the drug c…

This study aimed to see if a tiny camera on a thin tube (bronchoscopy) could help doctors diagnose diffuse lung diseases without needing a surgical lung biopsy. The camera takes live microscopic images of the air sacs. The study was stopped early, but it involved 38 adults with c…

This study looked at whether using a CPAP machine at night could reduce abnormal acid reflux and lung inflammation in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who also have sleep apnea. Only 7 people enrolled before the study was terminated early. The goal was to measure c…
