Efficacy and Safety Study of Orvepitant for Chronic Cough in Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Study Purpose
ORV-PF-01 is a two way, placebo controlled, cross-over study, to evaluate the effect of two
doses of orvepitant on cough in patients with IPF.
Recruitment Criteria
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms
No
Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.
An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria
Key
Inclusion Criteria:

such as chronic bronchitis or bronchiectasis
Trial Details
Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.
Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.
Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.
Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Cough, Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Additional Details
The study will be a multi-center, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled 2-period
cross-over study in subjects with chronic cough due to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
Subjects will participate in one of two cohorts (Cohort 1 and Cohort 2). Cohort 1 will
evaluate a 30 mg orvepitant dose and Cohort 2 the 10 mg dose. Within each cohort, subjects
will be randomised to receive either orvepitant or placebo in the first treatment period
(Treatment Period A) followed by the alternate treatment in Treatment Period B. There will be
a wash-out period of 3 weeks between the two treatment periods. Subjects will be randomised
1:1 to each of the two treatment orders and 1:1 to each cohort.
Subjects will enter a screening period of between 14 and 28 days to determine eligibility.
Eligible subjects will be randomised at the Baseline visit and will participate in two
identical 28 day treatment periods with the wash-out period between them. There will be a
total of 8 visits including the Screening, Baseline and final Follow-up visits.
