LUNG DISEASES, INTERSTITIAL

This early-stage study tests whether inhaling a mist made from donated amniotic fluid is safe for people with interstitial lung disease (ILD), a condition that scars the lungs and makes breathing hard. About 50 adults aged 40-90 with mild-to-moderate ILD will receive the treatmen…

This study tests an oral drug called H01 (hymecromone) in 37 adults with interstitial lung disease, a condition that causes lung scarring and often leads to death within 3-5 years. Participants take the drug twice daily for 12 weeks. The goal is to see if H01 can lower a marker o…

This study tests if the drug belimumab can help adults with lung scarring (interstitial lung disease) caused by connective tissue diseases like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus. The goal is to see if it can stabilize or improve lung function and reduce symptoms like shortness of bre…

This study looks at lung scarring (interstitial lung disease) that can happen in people with rheumatic diseases like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus. Researchers will track 312 Mexican patients over time to see how their lung disease progresses and what factors might make it worse.…

This study aims to develop a simple, non-invasive test for lung diseases like cancer by analyzing cough samples. Researchers will collect coughs, mouthwash, and lung fluid from 2,000 adults to see if genetic material from the lungs can be detected in breath. The goal is to create…

This study is creating a large database of medical information from up to 5,000 adults with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Researchers will use this registry to better understand the disease and improve future treatments. Participants simply allow their existing medical records…

This study compares two ways to perform a lung biopsy for people with undetermined interstitial lung disease. One method uses a breathing tube and general anesthesia, while the other keeps the patient awake with local anesthesia. The goal is to see which approach provides a clear…

This study is creating a database to help doctors find interstitial lung disease (ILD) earlier in people who have other systemic diseases that put them at risk. Researchers will track lung function tests like DLCO and FVC in 412 adults to see if a screening program can catch ILD …
