This study is exploring a potential new therapy aimed at helping slow disease progression and improve outcomes for people living with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. This research is made possible with Healthy Volunteers.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, or IPF, is a long-term lung condition where the tissue in the lungs slowly becomes scarred and stiff.
Normally, your lungs are soft and stretchy, which makes it easy to breathe and for oxygen to pass into your blood. With IPF, scar tissue builds up in the lungs over time, making them thicker and harder. As this scarring increases, it becomes more difficult to breathe and harder for the body to get the oxygen it needs.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how the experimental drug is processed in the body and to assess potential interactions between the study drug and medications currently approved for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
