Measured: 0, 4, 12, 24 weeks of treatment
To evaluate the potential effect of each AF on PK of BBT-877 in patients with IPF
Pre-dose and 4 hr-post dose of plasma concentrations.
Measured: 0, 4, 12, 24 weeks of treatment
To assess the safety of BBT-877 compared to placebo
The investigator will be asked to provide an assessment of the severity of the AE using the following categories:
Mild: Usually transient and may require only minimal treatment or therapeutic intervention. The event does not generally interfere with usual activities of daily living.
Moderate: Usually alleviated with additional specific therapeutic intervention. The event interferes with usual activities of daily living, causing discomfort but poses no significant or permanent risk of harm to the patient.
Severe: Interrupts usual activities of daily living, significantly affects clinical status, or may require intensive therapeutic intervention.
Measured: over 24 weeks

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing BBT-877 in people with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, run by Bridge Biotherapeutics, Inc. at 44 sites in 5 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 44 sites in United States, South Korea, Israel, Australia, Poland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
In patients with IPF by measuring the reduction in forced vital capacity (FVC) in mL decline compared to placebo (time frame: After 24 weeks of treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05483907, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Apr 2025.
