Advanced Imaging to Assess the Effect of Immunosuppression on Progressive Fibrosis

Q: Who can participate in NCT07572383?

Eligibility for this trial depends on the specific inclusion and exclusion criteria set by the sponsor. The plain-English summary above translates the most important criteria into accessible language; the official clinical text is preserved in the collapsible section underneath. Whether you fit any specific trial is a medical decision your doctor needs to confirm — bring the trial information to your treating physician for a full review against your medical history.

Q: How do I contact the trial site for NCT07572383?

Contact information registered with ClinicalTrials.gov is shown in the sidebar of this page. Before reaching out, confirm with your treating physician that this trial is appropriate for your situation. The trial site will then walk you through the screening process to determine final eligibility.

Q: Is participating in a clinical trial safe?

Clinical trials in the United States are regulated by the FDA and overseen by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) that review the protocol for safety. Risk varies by trial — Phase 1 studies test new treatments in humans for the first time, while Phase 3 trials use treatments that have already passed earlier safety screening. The informed consent document for any specific trial details the known risks and what to expect. Discuss those risks with your physician before deciding whether to participate.

Advanced Imaging to Assess the Effect of Immunosuppression on Progressive Lung Fibrosis in Participants With Non-Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Interstitial Lung Disease

Advanced Imaging to Assess the Effect of Immunosuppression on Progressive Fibrosis (NCT07572383) is a Phase 2 interventional studying Interstitial Lung Disease and Pulmonary Fibrosis, sponsored by Peter Caravan. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

About This Trial

The purpose of this study is to investigate how immunosuppression treatment affects measurements of active collagen deposition using \[68Ga\]CBP8 positron emission tomography (PET) and tissue injury using dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) in individuals with non-idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis interstitial lung disease (non-IPF ILD).

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 2 trials evaluate whether a treatment actually works against Interstitial Lung Disease and continue monitoring side effects. Phase 2 enrolls larger groups (typically 100–300 patients) and produces the first real efficacy signal. A successful Phase 2 readout is what unlocks the much larger Phase 3 confirmatory trials needed for FDA approval.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

With a target enrollment of 15 participants, this is a small study — typical of early-phase research, rare-disease trials, or pilot studies designed to generate preliminary signal before a larger study is launched.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: 1. Age 18-80 with a diagnosis of chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, connective tissue-associated ILD (due to rheumatoid arthritis, systemic sclerosis, mixed connective tissue disease), or undifferentiated ILD. 2. Starting immunosuppression treatment with mycophenolate mofetil, mycophenolate sodium, and / or prednisone for clinically indicated non-IPF ILD treatment. 3. Pulmonary fibrosis, defined as honeycombing, traction bronchiectasis, or reticular opacities on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) performed within 1 year to or at Visit 1. 4. Forced vital capacity (FVC) of \>/= 45% and diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO) \>/= 25% predicted on PFTs performed at Visit 1. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: 1. Current or prior exposure to FDA approved anti-fibrotic therapy. 2. Extent of emphysema greater than extent of fibrosis. 3. Pregnancy or plans to become pregnant at baseline or during follow-up. 4. Contraindications to MRI. 5. Contraindications to receiving gadolinium-based contrast agents. 6. Research-related radiation exposure exceeds 50 millisievert (mSv) in the prior year. 7. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 30 mL/min (only for individuals with a history of chronic kidney disease). 8. Clinically significant pulmonary hypertension (PH) defined by use of pulmonary vasodilatory therapy. 9. Respiratory infection within the prior 6 weeks. 10. Smoking of any kind within the prior 6 months. Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
