Interstitial lung disease includes a heterogeneous group of chronic lung conditions that is characterized by exertional dyspnoea and poor health related quality of life . includes idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis of unknown cause And another groups are caused by occupational, inorganic or organic exposure, drug- induced toxicities, or are secondaries to connective tissue disease The clinical course and outcome of interstitial lung diseases are highly variable between different sub types, but survival after diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is only 2.5 to 5 years is a progressive and fibrosing lung disease that is characterized by...
This is a perspective, Phase IV, multi-center, single arm, open-label, interventional study in adult participants with Wegener's granulomatosis (granulomatosis with polyangiitis [GPA]) or microscopic polyangiitis. Participants will be treated with rituximab (Ristova) and glucocorticoids. Rituximab will be administered by intravenous (IV) infusion at a dose of 375 milligrams per meter square (mg/m^2) body surface area once weekly during Weeks 1 to 4. Participants will also receive one or three pulses of methylprednisolone (1000 milligram [mg] each), followed by a tapering dose of oral prednisolone (start dose of 1 mg per kilogram per day)....
Oral selexipag is commercially available in several countries for the treatment of a particular group of pulmonary hypertension (PH) called pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The aim of the present study is to investigate whether selexipag could be helpful to treat patients with another form of PH called sarcoidosis-associated pulmonary hypertension (SAPH).
To investigate the efficacy and safety of Nalbuphine ER (NAL ER) tablets in subjects diagnosed with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and evaluate it's treatment of cough in these patients. This is a two-treatment, 2-period crossover study. Subjects will be randomized in Treatment Period 1 to either NAL ER or matching placebo and evaluate for approximately 21 days. After completion of the first phase, subjects who received NAL ER will crossover to placebo and subjects who received placebo will crossover to NAL ER to complete Treatment Period 2.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of the drug candidate IDL-2965 and to see how it is absorbed, processed, and removed by the body.
We propose to acquire data and blood samples on all patients being cared for by the Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) program. Additionally, we will collect data and blood samples from a control group for comparator purposes. In doing so, we will be able to describe the "phenotypic" expression of these diseases.
The main objectives of this study are to characterize the PK of BMS-986278 after administration of a single dose of BMS-986278 alone or in combination with pirfenidone, as well as to characterize the PK of pirfenidone after administration of a single dose of pirfenidone alone or in combination with BMS-986278
This is a multicenter, single-arm, unblinded/open-label study of the effect size of HRCT endpoints in response to glucocorticoid induction therapy in subjects with a diagnosis of pulmonary sarcoidosis who have not received glucocorticoid as initial sarcoidosis therapy (≥ 20 mg/day prednisone or prednisolone) or other sarcoidosis therapy for at least 3 months prior to enrollment. This study will enroll a total of approximately 24 subjects.
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), quality of life and exploratory pharmacodynamics (PD) of two treatment doses of CC-90001, 200 mg and 400 mg, compared with placebo, when delivered once daily per os (PO) in subjects with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This study is designed to assess response to treatment by using measures of lung function, disease progression, fibrosis on radiography, and patient-reported outcomes. It will also assess dose response.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2b trial in subjects with IPF (idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis) investigating the efficacy and safety of TD139.
