NCT ID NCT07269262
First seen Dec 10, 2025 · Last updated May 21, 2026 · Updated 20 times
Summary
This study is testing whether a mobile app called SUPPORT-T can help people with progressive pulmonary fibrosis (a type of lung scarring) and their caregivers get easier access to palliative care — care that focuses on comfort and quality of life. About 170 patients and their caregivers from rural South Carolina and New York City will use the app for 9 weeks, guided by a nurse, and join virtual support groups for a year. The goal is to see if this digital approach is practical and helpful, so it can be tested in a larger future study.
