To Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of BBT-877 in Patients With IPF
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of 200 mg twice daily (BID) of BBT-877 in patients with IPF, with or without AF approved background therapies (pirfenidone or nintedanib).

Tofacitinib in the Treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis-related Interstitial Lung Disease.
Nowadays, no single drug is approved to treat rheumatoid arthritis-related interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD). The medical management of this clinical condition is empirical and controversial. There is preliminary data that tofacitinib may have a beneficial effect in treating RA-ILD. Tofacitinib may have a double role in treating RA-ILD: treat RA disease activity and an anti-fibrotic possible impact. Moreover, tofacitinib may be used as monotherapy for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) This is a phase IIa clinical trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of tofacitinib in RA-ILD patients.

Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Efficacy of ZSP1603 in Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)
This study was divided into two parts. The first part was a dose escalation study: a open label dose escalation design was used to evaluate the safety, tolerance and pharmacokinetic characteristics of ZSP1603 in IPF patients. The second part was a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled design was used to preliminatively investigate the efficacy and safety of ZSP1603 in the treatment of IPF at the target dose.

Treating People With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis With the Addition of Lansoprazole
IPF is a progressive scarring lung condition causing coughing and breathlessness. IPF patients often have reflux disease meaning stomach acid may be breathed into the lungs, potentially damaging them. Medicines which stop stomach acid production, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), can be used to reduce reflux symptoms including heartburn. Some researchers suggest PPIs also reduce IPF progression. This research aims to see if IPF progresses slower if treated with PPIs. Based on the results, we will be able to recommend whether or not IPF patients should take PPIs. This trial will involve 298 IPF patients from approximately 37 UK...

Trikafta Exercise Study in Cystic Fibrosis
Shortness of breath (dyspnea) during exercise is a major source of distress and is a commonly reported symptom in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). A recent drug treatment option known as Trikafta, which contains elexacaftor, tezacaftor, and ivacaftor, may be used in patients with CF to help improve lung health. However, the effects of this combination therapy on dyspnea and exercise performance, a known predictor of survival in CF, are not clear. The investigators aim to understand the effects of Trikafta on these symptoms and to gain new insight into the potential health improvements in CF from using this treatment option.

Turkish Validity and Reliability of SGRQ-I
The Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) questionnaire is a frequently used questionnaire in the respiratory patient group, and the Turkish version of this questionnaire, which was created for use in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients, is not available. There is no commonly used quality of life questionnaire in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The aim of the study is to translate and validate the SGRQ idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis version of questionnaire into Turkish.

Validation of the Risk Stratification Score in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is characterized by a poor prognosis, with a progressive decline in lung function and a considerable variability in the disease's natural history. Besides lung transplantation (LTx), the only available treatments are anti-fibrosing drugs, which have shown to slower the disease course. Therefore, predicting the prognosis is of pivotal importance to avoid treatment delays, which may be fatal for patients with a high risk of progression. Previous studies showed that a multi-dimensional approach is practical and effective to create a reliable prognostic score for IPF. In the RIsk Stratification scorE ...

Xenon-129 Lung Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Study of Healthy Volunteers and Participants With Pulmonary Disease
Aim of this study is to evaluate image quality and reproducibility of Xenon-129 Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and to evaluate changes in lung structure and function in participants with cystic fibrosis (CF) and asthma compared to healthy controls using Xenon-129 MRI.

Xenon MRI and Progressive ILD
The XENON ILD study is a single arm, un-blinded study at Duke University enrolling patients with non-idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) progressive fibrosis (PF) interstitial lung disease (ILD). Patients who meet criteria for ILD-progression (defined below in inclusion/exclusion criteria) will be consented prior to the initiation of anti-fibrotic therapy. Subjects will undergo an approximately hour long comprehensive MRI protocol, including administration of multiple doses of hyperpolarized 129Xe. The subjects will have this initial study prior to initiation of anti-fibrotic therapies and repeat MRI studies at 3, 6 and 12 months...

19F MRI in Healthy Children and Children With Mild Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease
This study capitalizes on the emerging technology of 19F MRI, using conventional 'thermally' polarized perfluorinated gas (perfluoropropane, or PFP) mixed with oxygen and studied with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to visualize ventilation. This technique has not been studied in children. Children and adolescents (6-17 years old) with cystic fibrosis (CF) who have normal spirometry will undergo 19F MRI with the inhalation of an inert contrast gas to study ventilation. Comparisons will be made to a cohort of healthy children (6-17 years old) who will perform the same measures. The primary outcome measure is the feasibility of...
