Hypersensitivity pneumonitis

This study tests an inhaled form of pirfenidone (AP01) in 375 adults with progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF), a condition where lung scarring worsens over time. Participants receive either a high dose, low dose, or placebo twice daily for 52 weeks, alongside their usual care. T…

This phase 4 trial tests whether adding mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) to standard prednisolone treatment works better than prednisolone alone for fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, a lung condition where scarring makes breathing hard. About 144 adults with at least 40% predicte…

This study tests whether using a portable oxygen concentrator (a lightweight, battery-powered device) during walking or exercise helps people with interstitial lung disease (ILD) or COPD feel less breathless and be more active in their daily lives. Twenty-four participants will t…

This pilot study tests whether home-based or video-supervised exercise programs are acceptable and helpful for people with chronic lung diseases like IPF, sarcoidosis, bronchiectasis, asthma, and other interstitial lung diseases. Fifty participants will be randomly assigned to on…

This study tests a new injection called LP-003 in 6 teenagers aged 12 to 18 who have allergies like hay fever, asthma, or eczema. The main goal is to check if the drug is safe and how the body processes it. This is an early-stage trial, so it focuses on safety and drug levels rat…

This study tests whether a radioactive tracer called 68Ga-FAPi-46 can light up areas of scarring (fibrosis) in the lungs of people with interstitial lung disease. Participants receive the tracer and undergo a PET/CT scan to see where it collects. The goal is to understand how the…

This study tests whether low-intensity aerobic exercise with blood flow restriction (BFR) is safe and effective for people with interstitial lung disease (ILD). BFR uses a cuff to partially block blood flow, which may help build muscle with less strain. Thirty participants will t…

This study looks for biological markers in blood and lung samples from people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and other interstitial lung diseases. The goal is to find markers that can predict how the disease will progress and to group patients into subtypes. Researchers…

This study at Duke University tests whether a special MRI scan using inhaled xenon gas can detect changes in lung function over time in people with progressive pulmonary fibrosis. Sixty adults with various types of lung scarring will have MRI scans before starting anti-fibrotic m…

This study looks at how things in the environment and at work might affect people with interstitial lung diseases (a group of lung conditions). Researchers will ask 1,000 adults with a new diagnosis about their exposures to things like pollution, chemicals, and dust. The goal is …

This study is looking for markers in the blood that can predict whether a person's chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis will get worse over time. Researchers will follow about 137 patients at 7 U.S. centers for 24 months, tracking lung function, symptoms, and CT scans. The goal i…
