Filter by:PIPF-016 (ASCEND) is a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled, Phase 3 Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Pirfenidone in Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. The study objectives are to confirm the treatment effect of pirfenidone compared with placebo on change in percent predicted forced vital capacity (%FVC) in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and to confirm the safety of treatment with pirfenidone compared with placebo in patients with IPF.
The study consists of 2 parts: Part A is a randomized, multiple-dose, double-blind, placebo-controlled sequential dose escalation study to evaluate GS-6624 in subjects with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and was completed in October 2011. Part B is a randomized, two-dose, open-label dose expansion study to evaluate GS-6624 in subjects with IPF and is currently enrolling.
The MUSIC OL study is an open-label extension study, in which all eligible patients having completed the double-blind AC-055B201/MUSIC study as scheduled receive macitentan 10 mg once daily. The study objective is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of macitentan in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic disease of unknown cause that results in scarring of the lung and there is a high unmet medical need for effective treatment to halt lung function decline, delay or avoid exacerbation (flare-ups), and ultimately to reduce the death rate. In a large Phase 2 trial (1199.30) (NCT00514683), investigating the effects of 52 weeks of treatment with BIBF 1120 in patients with IPF, a positive effect was seen on lung function of patients treated with high dose of BIBF 1120 compared to placebo. Hence it is the purpose of this trial to investigate and confirm the efficacy and safety of BIBF 1120 at a high dose in treating patients with IPF, compared with placebo. The trial will be conducted as a prospective, randomised design with the aim to collect safety and efficacy data. Respiratory function is globally accepted for assessment of treatment effects in IPF patients. The chosen endpoint (Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) decline) is easy to obtain and is part of the usual examinations done in IPF patients.

The investigators aim to evaluate the role of 68Ga-DOTA-NOC PET/CT in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, in particular in patients with a diagnosis of IPF/UIP (idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, diagnosed based in the American Thoracic Society and European Respiratory Society criteria) and in forms of NSIP (non-specific interstitial pneumonia). PET/CT imaging data will be compared with HRCT (high-resolution computed tomography) findings to assess disease extension, early disease detection and to non-invasively detect somatostatin receptors expression at lung level in these patients, with potential therapeutic implications.
This is an open-label Phase I/II trial to assess the feasibility and safety of combined plasma exchange (PEX), rituximab, and conventional corticosteroid administration on the outcome of hospitalized patients with acute IPF exacerbations. The specific aims of this study are: 1. To assess the feasibility and safety of combined PEX, rituximab, and conventional corticosteroid administrations for the treatment of hospitalized patients with acute IPF exacerbations by monitoring indices of respiratory (PaO2) and cardiovascular function during the treatment interval. 2. To assess the efficacy of combined PEX, rituximab, and conventional corticosteroid administrations for the treatment of hospitalized patients with acute IPF exacerbations on patient survival in comparison to historical controls. Patient survival for this investigation will be defined using the composite outcome of 60 day survival and/or survival to lung transplantation. Subjects between 18 and 80 years of age who have a confirmed diagnosis of IPF, and meet all the study requirements will be enrolled in this study. A total of 10 subjects of both genders and all ethnic backgrounds with acute IPF exacerbations hospitalized at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center will be enrolled in this study.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of QAX576 in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
A Phase 2 open label, dose escalation study to find the minimally and maximum effective dose (dose beyond which no further effect on PVR is seen) of inhaled nitric oxide generated by the GeNOsyl® System compared to placebo.
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of FG-3019 in subjects with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and the efficacy of FG-3019 for attenuating fibrosis in these subjects.
