Summary

This early-stage study is testing an extended-release tablet called nalbuphine ER in 10 people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The main goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it affects breathing function. Researchers will monitor oxygen levels, breathing rate, and side effects as doses increase.
