New study aims to tame Nintedanib's gut side effects in lung disease
NCT ID NCT06714812
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study observes 100 adults with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who are taking the drug nintedanib. The goal is to understand who is more likely to get diarrhea as a side effect and to see if lowering the dose helps. Researchers will track diarrhea severity and how dose changes affect patients.
