New treatment option for Age-Related Lung Function Decline
Official title Ongoing Lung Decline With Age Intensified Response
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07676435
What this study is testing
What is Fisetin?
Fisetin is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for age-related lung function decline.
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 Phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study will evaluate the effects of fisetin, a senolytic flavonoid compound, on lung function and biomarkers of cellular senescence in older adults aged 60 years and older. Participants will include individuals with a history of at least 10 pack-years of smoking as well as age-matched never-smokers.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
