A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 2 Clinical Trial of the Efficacy and Safety of MNKD-201 (Nintedanib Dry Powder Inhalation) in Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Followed by an Open-Label Extension

🟢 Recruiting Phase2 💊 Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Mannkind Corporation

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety and preliminary efficacy of inhaled Nintedanib Dry Powder Inhalation (DPI) in adults with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Participants are randomized to receive either 2 mg QID, 4 mg BID, or matching placebo for 12 weeks, followed by a 24-week open-label extension in which all participants receive active treatment. The primary focus is on safety-particularly bronchospasm events, lung function changes (FEV1, FEV1/FVC), and adverse event rates and assessing the effectiveness of nintedanib DPI in treating IPF.

Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (13 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (27 items).
