Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this clinical trial is to see if mirivadelgat will work in patients with Pulmonary Hypertension Associated with Interstitial Lung Disease (PH-ILD). It will also learn about the safety of mirivadelgat. The main question it aims to answer is if mirivadelgat will improve pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). Pulmonary vascular resistance is a way to measure blood flow in the lungs.

Researchers will compare mirivadelgat to a placebo (a look-alike capsule that contains no drug) to see if mirivadelgat works to improve the symptoms of PH-ILD. The symptoms of PH-ILD that are being looked at are exercise tolerance, heart function, and general well-being.

Participants will:

Take mirivadelgat or a placebo once a day for 12 weeks

Visit the clinic once every 4 weeks for checkups and tests

Receive phone calls every one or two weeks to check on how things are going

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study is a phase 2, multinational, double-blind, 3-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mirivadelgat, an aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 activator, in adult subjects (aged 18 to 85 years) with PH-ILD. Subjects must have a confirmed diagnosis of ILD as defined by the American Thoracic Society (ATS), European Respiratory Society (ERS), Japanese Respiratory Society (JRS), and/or Latin American Thoracic Society (ALAT) guidelines (Raghu, 2018). The diagnosis is based on a HRCT either performed at screening or within 180 days prior to screening or a historical surgical biopsy (or other appropriate tissue sampling (e.g., cryobiopsy)) and an RHC performed at screening. Subjects who also have connective tissue disorders can comprise up to 20% of the study population.

To be eligible for the study, a subject must be willing to undergo a Right Heart Catheterization (RHC) during screening and at the Week 12 Visit (at the end of study treatment). Subjects on chronic treatment for underlying pulmonary diseases must be on a stable/optimized dose for ≥30 days prior to screening and have been receiving treatment for ≥90 days prior to screening.

The study will enroll approximately 126 subjects, assuming a drop-out rate of 20%, to obtain 99 evaluable subjects (33 evaluable subjects in each cohort).

Study visits will include a Screening Visit; Visit 2 (Study Day 1); Weeks 2, 3, 4, 6, 8,10, and 12 Visits (+/ 3 days); and a safety Follow-up Visit (+/ 3 days) after the Week 12 Visit. Visits on Weeks 2, 3, 6, and 10 will be conducted by phone calls.
