The SHIELD Study-silicosis
An observational cohort study to derive biomarkers which are able to more accurately diagnose silicosis, as well as predict disease progression, assess response to treatment, and hasten therapeutic discovery.

The TELO-SCOPE Study: Attenuating Telomere Attrition With Danazol. Is There Scope to Dramatically Improve Health Outcomes for Adults and Children With Pulmonary Fibrosis
TELO-SCOPE is a national, multi-centre, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised (2:1) trial which will test the hypothesis that, compared to placebo, the addition of danazol to standard of care in pulmonary fibrosis associated with short telomeres is safe and will result in reduced telomere attrition.

The UK Interstitial Lung Disease Long-COVID19 Study (UKILD-Long COVID): Understanding the Burden of Interstitial Lung Disease in Long COVID.
Prospective observational study of hospitalised and non-hospitalised patients post- infection with SARS-CoV-2. The study aims to recruit 2000 individuals, with proven COVID-19, who were not hospitalised but presented to Long-COVID clinics with persistent respiratory symptoms such as breathlessness or cough and are referred for cross-sectional imaging (computer tomography, CT) at baseline (3 months weeks after their first COVID-19 symptoms). The study will run for 18 months.

To Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and PK Characteristics of FCN-159 in Pediatric Patients With Refractory/Recurrent LCH
This is a rare disease, single-arm, open-label,multi-center, non-randomized Phase 2 clinical study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetic characteristics of FCN-159 monotherapy in pediatric patients with refractory/recurrent Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH).

To Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of BBT-877 in Patients With IPF
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of 200 mg twice daily (BID) of BBT-877 in patients with IPF, with or without AF approved background therapies (pirfenidone or nintedanib).

Tofacitinib in the Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis-related Interstitial Lung Disease.
Nowadays, no single drug is approved to treat rheumatoid arthritis-related interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD). The medical management of this clinical condition is empirical and controversial. There is preliminary data that tofacitinib may have a beneficial effect in treating RA-ILD. Tofacitinib may have a double role in treating RA-ILD: treat RA disease activity and an anti-fibrotic possible impact. Moreover, tofacitinib may be used as monotherapy for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) This is a phase IIa clinical trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of tofacitinib in RA-ILD patients.

Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Efficacy of ZSP1603 in Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)
This study was divided into two parts. The first part was a dose escalation study: a open label dose escalation design was used to evaluate the safety, tolerance and pharmacokinetic characteristics of ZSP1603 in IPF patients. The second part was a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled design was used to preliminatively investigate the efficacy and safety of ZSP1603 in the treatment of IPF at the target dose.

Treating People With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis With the Addition of Lansoprazole
IPF is a progressive scarring lung condition causing coughing and breathlessness. IPF patients often have reflux disease meaning stomach acid may be breathed into the lungs, potentially damaging them. Medicines which stop stomach acid production, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), can be used to reduce reflux symptoms including heartburn. Some researchers suggest PPIs also reduce IPF progression. This research aims to see if IPF progresses slower if treated with PPIs. Based on the results, we will be able to recommend whether or not IPF patients should take PPIs. This trial will involve 298 IPF patients from approximately 37 UK...
