A Study to Test Whether BI 1839100 Improves Cough in People With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis or Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis
Adults 40 years of age and older with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or 18 years and older with progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) can participate in this study. Only people who have a chronic cough can take part. The purpose of this study is to find out how well BI 1839100 helps reduce coughing in people with IPF or PPF. Participants who have IPF are put into 4 groups by chance. Participants in 3 groups get different doses of BI 1839100. Participants in 1 group get placebo. Placebo looks like BI 1839100 but does not contain any medicine. Participants take the treatment for 3 months. After 1 month of treatment, participants...

Automated Oxygen Titration During Walking in Patients With Lung Fibrosis (OXYWILD)
Fibrotic lung disease is a group of severe scarring lung diseases with a dismal prognosis, often leading to respiratory failure and need for oxygen treatment. The symptom burden is often extremely high with dyspnea at rest and increasing dyspnea with exertion. Patients will often need more oxygen during activity thus repeatedly adjustments of oxygen flow rates are required to target an acceptable saturation at rest and during activities. This is impractical and can lead to an undesirable focus on oxygen levels as well as reduced use of the oxygen treatment in everyday life. There is an urgent need for oxygen equipment that is easy...

Diagnostic and Prognostic Model of Pulmonary Fibrosis After COVID-19 Pneumonia and Mechanism Study
The infection of COVID-19 has caused serious threat to the life and health of all mankind and increased huge economic burden. According to the current statistics, the incidence of pulmonary fibrosis after COVID-19 infection is about 27.7% -87%, 81% of severe patients and 37% of moderate patients have residual lung lesions, and 53% of patients still have residual lung abnormalities one year after infection, resulting in restrictive pulmonary dysfunction and affecting the health and life of patients. Therefore, it is very important to study the diagnostic and prognostic markers of pulmonary fibrosis after infection of COVID-19. At ...

Early Detection of Pulmonary Exacerbations in Non-cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the use of equipment to monitor health at home in participants who have non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - How acceptable participants find using home monitoring equipment. - To find out if the data collected from home monitoring can help to detect chest infections (exacerbations) before participants get symptoms they are aware of. Participants will be provided with - - a handheld spirometer to record FEV1 (lung function) - a Fitbit, or other compatible activity monitor, to record activity and heart...

Efficacy and Safety of ME-015 (Suplatast Tosilate) in Cough Related to Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (COSMIC-IPF)
Orally administered ME-015 (Suplatast Tosilate) has been available on the market as a prescription drug for allergy-related conditions in Japan since 1995 with a very good safety and tolerability profile. There is preclinical and exploratory clinical evidence suggesting that ME-015 may be effective in treating cough caused by idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF-cough). 80% of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are affected by a devastating dry cough that is often not responsive to standard cough treatments and causes significant psychological and physiological suffering as well as reduced quality of life. As of...

Exercise Tolerance and Lower-limb Muscle Power in Patients With Chronic Respiratory Disease
The aim of this study is to validate the six minute Stepper Test (6MST) and the 5-repetition chair lift test (5STS) as measures of exercise tolerance and muscle power, respectively, in patients with chronic respiratory disease. As the reproducibility of the tests has been studied and validated in previous studies, the objective is to investigate the validity of the 6MST and 5STS in comparison with their respective gold standards.

Faecal Microbiota Transplantation to Ameliorate Nintedanib-induced Diarrhea in Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
This is a multicentric, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that will consist of two consecutive phases: 1. First phase: faecal samples will be collected in patients diagnosed with Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis treated with nintedanib. 2. Second phase: double-blind, randomised, clinical trial of autologous faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) vs placebo in Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients who will experience nintedanib-induced diarrhea within 8 weeks of baseline visit. Follow-up visits will be scheduled at 1, 4 and 12 weeks after randomization. The main aim of the study is to...

FIBRotic Interstitial Lung Disease With Nocturnal hypOXaemia and EXercise Induced desaTuRAtion
This is an observational clinical research study investigating patients with fibrotic interstitial lung disease (fILD), also known as pulmonary fibrosis. It is not known why some patients with fILD clinically deteriorate. This study will investigate whether measuring oxygen levels during sleep or exercise can help identify patients who are at increased risk of clinical deterioration.

Frequency-time Analysis of Pathological Lung Sounds: Detection and Quantification of Pathological Sounds in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis, Pulmonary Fibrosis or COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)
The main objective of the study is to assess the potential of time-frequency representation and analysis of pulmonary sounds collected with an electronic stethoscope, as part of the routine monitoring of patients with cystic fibrosis, COPD or pulmonary fibrosis.
