NCT ID NCT05310669

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether the effort it takes to breathe can cause further lung damage in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Researchers will measure breathing effort using a simple nose pressure test before and after exercise. The goal is to find patients whose breathing effort is high and may be at risk for faster disease progression. 100 adults with IPF will take part.
