SC1011 (sufenidone) is a novel pyridone derivative with therapeutic potential for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Two Phase 1 studies evaluated the safety and pharmacokinetics of single (SAD) and multiple ascending doses (MAD) of SC1011 immediate-release (IR) and modified-release (MR) oral formulations in healthy adult subjects. In Phase 1a, subjects were randomized to receive oral SC1011 IR or placebo in SAD (50 mg-300 mg) or MAD (100 mg and 200 mg) twice daily for 7 days.

Introduction: Social determinants of health (SDH), including age, sex, ethnicity, socioeconomic status and rurality, influence health outcomes. Clinical trials investigating antifibrotic agents for people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) have been conducted in predominantly White and male populations; it is unclear whether other SDH have been considered. This study aimed to investigate active consideration and reporting of SDH in clinical trials of antifibrotic agents for people with IPF.

Human lungs contain unique cell populations in distal respiratory airways or terminal and respiratory bronchioles (RA/TRBs) that accumulate in persons with lung injury and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a lethal lung disease. As these populations are absent in rodents, deeper understanding requires a human in vitro model. Here we convert human pluripotent stem cells (hPS cells) into expandable spheres, called induced respiratory airway progenitors (iRAPs), consisting of ~98% RA/TRB-associated cell types.

Introduction: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive lung disease characterized by distorted alveolar structure and reduced lung compliance, and impaired ventilation-perfusion. Small airway disease (SAD) is often termed a 'quietzone' due to its asymptomatic nature. Around 30-40% of IPF patients exhibit SAD, which is associated with worse prognosis, higher fibrosis and emphysema scores, and elevated mortality risk.

Introduction: The choice of treatment strategy in patients with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH)/HPAH/DPAH (Hereditary pulmonary arterial hypertension/ Drug-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension) II-III functional class (FC) (WHO) based on an acute vasoreactive testing result (VRT). Positive VRT (VRT+) is an indication for calcium channel blockers therapy. Long-term vasoresponders demonstrate sustained low-risk status and the highest survival among all PH subtypes.
