About this study

Official title: Efficacy, Safety, Immune Function of Pirfenidone in the Treatment of Connetive Tissue Disease -Related Interstitial Lung Disease(CTD-LID)

A single-center randomized controlled study will be used to observe the efficacy and safety of pirfenidone on CTD-ILD patients for 24 months.

The main research endpoints is the lung function (FVC) at 6 months. The clinical dyspnea score, 6-minute walking distance, index of lung function and imaging indicators are evaluated, as well as primary disease activity and adverse reactions of therapy with glucocorticoid and immunosuppressants up to 24 months.

Read the detailed description

A total of 120 Chinese patients with connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD), including inflammatory myopathy (IIM), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic sclerosis (SSc), and other connective tissue diseases, will be enrolled to use Pirfenidone or not in this study according to 2:1 random entry. Glucocorticoid and immunosuppressants worked as background treatment.

The main research endpoint is the lung function (FVC) at 6 months. The clinical dyspnea score, 6-minute walking distance, lung function and imaging indicators, primary disease activity index are evaluated regularly until 24 months. The relationship of pirfenidone concentration, clinical effect and safety, immune function will be analyzed also.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Pirfenidone and glucocorticoid and immunosuppressant in people with Pirfenidone and Connective Tissue Diseases, run by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University at 1 site in China.

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 0 inclusion and 16 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Qiang Shu, Dr (0086-0531-82169654, shuqiang@sdu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in FVC% (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 30 Nov 2022.
