Compares treatment options for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)
Official title Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of LYT-100 (Deupirfenidone) Compared to Pirfenidone in Adults With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07284602
What this study is testing
What is Deupirfenidone?
Deupirfenidone is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (ipf).
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a study for adults with a lung disease called idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The main purpose of this study is to look at how well deupirfenidone improves lung function and how safe it is for people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) when compared with pirfenidone.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- Time commitment: about 52 weeks
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
