Can a new pill help slow lung changes in people with family risk?
This trial tests a new drug called nerandomilast to see if it can slow down early lung changes in people who have a close family member with a type of lung scarring called pulmonary fibrosis. You may join if you are 40 or older, have a parent, sibling, or child with this condition, and have early signs of lung changes on a CT scan.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT07366034RecruitingPhase 3
Testing nerandomilast for children with lung scarring
This trial tests a new oral medicine, nerandomilast, to see if it helps children and teens (ages 2 to under 18) who have a type of lung disease that causes scarring (interstitial lung disease). The study monitors how well patients tolerate the drug and whether it improves their breathing.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 2–17 - NCT04905693Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Extension inhaled treprostinil study for fibrotic lung disease
This is an add-on (extension) study testing whether continuing inhaled treprostinil can help people with fibrotic lung disease who took part in earlier related studies. It mainly continues treatment and follow-up for eligible participants.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT07473700RecruitingPhase 2
Study of TX000045 for lung scarring and high blood pressure in the lungs
This trial tests a new medicine called TX000045 for people who have both lung scarring (interstitial lung disease) and high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary hypertension). It aims to see if the drug can help improve breathing and daily function.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT04925375RecruitingPhase 2
Abatacept for children with CVID and lung scarring

San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 4 years+ - NCT05878717RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Belimumab for adults with scleroderma lung scarring
This Phase 2/3 study tests whether belimumab can improve outcomes and safety in adults with systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) that has caused lung scarring. It may help by reducing active or worsening immune-driven disease in the lungs.
Upland, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05892614RecruitingPhase 2
Efzofitimod for early systemic sclerosis lung scarring
This trial tests efzofitimod to see if it can improve or slow lung disease caused by systemic sclerosis (scleroderma), and to check safety and side effects. It focuses on people with relatively early disease and measurable lung involvement on lung scans.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06195072RecruitingPhase 2
Platform study for scleroderma with lung disease
This trial tests new treatments for people with scleroderma-related lung disease. You may be eligible if you have systemic sclerosis with lung scarring, your symptoms started within the last 7 years, and you have not had certain prior treatments or transplants.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06388421Recruiting
PH-ILD patient registry: tracking real-world outcomes
This study tracks people with both lung scarring and high blood pressure in the lungs (Group 3 PH-ILD) to better understand the disease and how treatments like Tyvaso work in real life. It may help you and your doctor make more informed decisions about your care.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06397677Recruiting
Study of Progressive RA Interstitial Lung Disease
This study is looking at people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who also have interstitial lung disease (ILD), a condition that causes scarring in the lungs. It aims to understand how the disease changes over time by using imaging and blood tests, without providing any new treatments right now.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT06572384RecruitingPhase 3
Belimumab for lung scarring in autoimmune disease
This study tests whether a drug called belimumab can help people with lung scarring caused by certain autoimmune diseases (like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus). If you have active lung disease despite standard therapy, this trial may be an option.
Upland, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05001009Enrolling by invitation
Goals of care conversation support for certain serious illnesses
This study helps primary care clinicians and their patients have structured “goals of care” conversations (about what matters most and care preferences). It may help you get clearer, earlier planning—especially if you have a serious illness and higher risk of hospitalization or death.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04930289Enrolling by invitation
Lung transplant registry for better donor lung preservation
This study builds a worldwide database to track and improve how donor lungs are preserved before transplant. Your information may help doctors choose and manage donor lungs more effectively.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05943535RecruitingPhase 3
Breathing treprostinil to slow progressive lung scarring
This Phase 3 trial tests whether inhaled treprostinil can slow progression of lung fibrosis (scarring) that keeps getting worse despite standard care. It also looks at safety, because inhaled medicine can cause side effects and needs careful monitoring.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06129240Recruiting
Study of a new inhaled treprostinil powder for PH-ILD
This study tests a new dry powder inhaled medicine called LIQ861 for people with pulmonary hypertension related to lung scarring (PH-ILD). If you are already taking an inhaled treprostinil treatment but need better control, this trial may help you switch to a potentially easier-to-use version.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT05922761RecruitingPhase 2
Belumosudil for lung scar prevention or treatment after transplant
This Phase 2 study tests belumosudil to treat or prevent bronchiolitis obliterans (BOS), a lung complication that can happen after a stem cell transplant. If you qualify, you would be checked closely with breathing tests and scans, and watched for safety and whether lung function improves or stays stable.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06772623RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of telisotuzumab adizutecan plus immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination treatment for people with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer who haven't received prior therapy for advanced disease and don't have specific gene changes. The treatment includes an antibody-drug conjugate (telisotuzumab adizutecan) plus an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor) to see if it helps shrink tumors and improve outcomes.

What taking part in a interstitial lung disease study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
