Filter by: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 study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of QAX576 in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and PK profile of CC-930 in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients.
We hypothesize that a peripheral blood biomarker or biological signature (gene or protein expression pattern) of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) will simplify and improve the accuracy of diagnosis of IIP and diagnose individuals at an earlier, more treatable, stage of their disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether combination therapy with sildenafil and losartan can improve function and exercise tolerance in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
This study will test the effectiveness of warfarin in patients with IPF. Approximately 256 patients will be randomized 1:1 to either warfarin or placebo. Patients will return at week 1 for a safety review and every 16 weeks for 48 weeks. The primary endpoint in the study is the time to either death, non-bleeding/non-elective hospitalization, or a drop of greater than 10% in forced vital capacity (FVC) from baseline.
Ambrisentan is an endothelin receptor antagonist used for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension (PH). Based on research suggesting a role for endothelin-1 in the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and the poor prognosis for patients with IPF who are also diagnosed with PH, this study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ambrisentan in that patient population.
The ARTEMIS-IPF study was conducted to determine if ambrisentan was effective in delaying disease progression and death in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), to evaluate its safety, and to evaluate its effect on development of pulmonary hypertension, quality of life, and dyspnea (shortness of breath) symptoms in this participant population. Participants were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive ambrisentan or placebo, respectively. Participation in the study was to be up to 4 years, depending on how long it would take to enroll participants and observe study events. After randomization, visits to the clinic took place every 3 months, and laboratory procedures were performed every month.
The purpose of this study is to establish single-dose tolerability of inhaled treprostinil sodium in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) patients with pulmonary hypertension, and to explore the acute hemodynamic effects over a range of tolerable doses. The safety and pharmacodynamic information obtained from this study will inform the design and conduct of future studies in inhaled treprostinil sodium in this population.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether lozenges containing interferon-alpha can reduce the frequency and severity of coughing in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
