New inhaled therapy aims to slow lung scarring in progressive fibrosis

NCT ID NCT06329401

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

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. The main goal is to see if AP01 can preserve lung function, measured by forced vital capacity (FVC).

Inclusion Criteria: * Participant meets criteria for PPF, as follows: * In subjects with interstitial lung disease (ILD) of known or unknown etiology other than idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who have radiological evidence of pulmonary fibrosis, PPF is defined as: Physiological evidence of disease progression with at least 1 of the following criteria despite treatment with approved or unapproved medications commonly used in practice (per Investigator): 1. Relative decline in FVC ≥10% predicted within the previous 24 months based on documented historical spirometry assessments 2. Relative decline in FVC ≥5% to \<10% predicted within the previous 24 months based on documented historical spirometry assessments with at least 1 of the 2 following criteria: * Worsening respiratory symptoms (Note: Changes attributable to comorbidities e.g., infection, heart failure must be excluded) OR * Radiological (HRCT) evidence of disease progression per a local or central radiologist (from historical HRCT taken up to 24 months prior to Screening Visit 1), for example: * Increased extent or severity of traction bronchiectasis and bronchiolectasis * New ground-glass opacity with traction bronchiectasis * New fine reticulation * Increased extent or increased coarseness of reticular abnormality * New or increased honeycombing * Increased lobar volume loss 3. Worsening of respiratory symptoms (Note: Changes attributable to comorbidities e.g., infection, heart failure must be excluded) AND radiological (HRCT) evidence of disease progression per a local or central radiologist * Meeting all of the following criteria during the Screening Period: a. FVC ≥45% of predicted normal at Screening Visit 1, b. Forced expiratory volume at 1 second (FEV1)/FVC ≥0.7 or ≥age-adjusted lower limit of normal at Screening Visit 1, c. Diffusing capacity of lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) ≥30% of predicted, corrected for hemoglobin at Screening Visit 1, d. Acceptability: Participants can perform acceptable spirometry (i.e., meet American Thoracic Society (ATS)/ European Respiratory Society (ERS) acceptability criteria at both Screening Visits). • For subjects already on nintedanib (up to 30% of subjects): Must have been on nintedanib for at least 6 months prior to Screening with or without dose adjustments and/or drug interruptions during that period. For subjects who have discontinued nintedanib prior to Screening: Must have been off of nintedanib for a minimum of 12 weeks. Exclusion Criteria: * Current treatment with oral pirfenidone or treatment with oral pirfenidone within 3 months prior to Screening. * Elevated liver enzymes and liver injury at Screening defined as: 1. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ˃ 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) 2. Bilirubin \>2.0 x ULN * Renal disease with a creatinine clearance \< 30 mL/min, calculated according to the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration formula. Retesting is allowed once. * Diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) based on the ATS diagnostic algorithm for IPF. UIP that is not idiopathic, for example related to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), familial interstitial lung disease (ILD), or other is not exclusionary. * Greater extent of emphysema than of fibrotic ILD on HRCT. Note: CT results must be confirmed through the central over read process. * Significant clinical worsening of PPF between Screening * Participants who cannot meet protocol-specified Baseline stability criteria. FVC Baseline stability is defined as the FVC assessments at Visit 3 being within ±12% of the mean of the FVC assessments obtained at the 2 preceding visits. At Visit 3, if the pre-dose FVC is outside of ±12% range, the participant will not be randomized and will be considered a screen failure.
