Blood biomarker may spot early IPF

NCT ID NCT03457935

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

Summary

This study looks at whether a molecule called miR200 in the blood can help detect idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a lung-scarring disease, at an early stage. Researchers will compare miR200 levels in 450 people: those with IPF, those with other lung diseases, and healthy volunteers. The goal is to find a simple blood test for earlier diagnosis.
