Testing olokizumab for progressive lung scarring diseases
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a drug called olokizumab to see if it can slow down worsening lung scarring (fibrosis) in people with certain types of progressive interstitial lung diseases. It's for patients whose lung function has declined despite current treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a type of lung scarring (pulmonary fibrosis) that is getting worse.
- You are 18 or older.
- Your lung function (FVC) is between 45% and 80% of normal, and your DLCO is at least 30% of normal.
- You have not taken certain medicines like rituximab (within the last year) or high-dose steroids recently.
- You are willing to avoid pregnancy during and for 3 months after the study.

This study tests whether a combination of two drugs, nintedanib and tocilizumab, can help people with systemic sclerosis (a condition that causes skin and organ hardening) who also have lung scarring (interstitial lung disease). The goal is to find a treatment that can slow down the disease.
This study tests whether a new drug called nerandomilast can slow down scarring in the lungs for people with certain types of fibrosing interstitial lung disease (a condition where lung tissue becomes thick and scarred). You may qualify if you have lung scarring that is getting worse and haven't tried this or similar drugs before.
This trial tests if a combination of three drugs (azithromycin, hydroxychloroquine, and prednisone) can help people with a genetic form of lung scarring. The goal is to see if these medicines calm the immune system and slow down the disease.
This study tests whether a new drug called HSK44459 can slow lung scarring (idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis or IPF) and improve your ability to breathe. You'll receive either the drug or a placebo while your lung function is monitored over time.
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.
This trial tests a new medicine called HSK44459 for people with progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF). It aims to see if the drug can help slow lung damage and improve breathing. You may join if you are not taking certain other fibrosis drugs or have been on a stable dose for at least 12 weeks.
