Female or male subjects with potential fertility agree and commit to taking effective contraceptive measures from the time of signing the informed consent form until 30 days after the last administration of the investigational drug; at the same time, avoid sperm/egg collection, sperm/egg donation;

8. According to the assessment by the investigator, the subjects are willing and able to comply with the requirements of the protocol and attend the visits.

Exclusion Criteria

3. Abnormalities in the lungs or chest that are clinically significant and judged by the researchers to potentially affect the trial results.

4. Within one month before randomization, any active infection requiring systemic treatment (such as oral or intravenous administration) in the form of activity (including bacterial, viral, parasitic or fungal infections).

5. Expected to undergo lung transplantation during the course of the study.

6. Expected survival period less than 6 months.

7. History of malignant tumors within the previous 5 years (excluding localized cancers such as basal cell carcinoma).

2. Myocardial infarction;

3. Congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization or NYHA III/IV grade;

4. Uncontrolled severe arrhythmia.

10. Unable to perform the 6MWT or pulmonary function test, such as if the patient is mentally unstable and unable to cooperate, etc.;

11. Allergic to any component of Ifinonate Hydrochloride Tablets (except the active ingredient, the excipients include microcrystalline cellulose, pre-gelatinized starch, cross-linked povidone, povidone, dibutyl hydroxytoluene, colloidal silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, talc and titanium dioxide) or pirfenidone tablets;

12. The last administration of the study drug for other clinical trials occurred within 4 weeks before randomization or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer);

13. Pregnant or breastfeeding;

14. Within 3 months before screening, had a smoking history or was unwilling to maintain a smoking-free status during the study;

15. Within 6 months before screening, frequently drank alcohol [average weekly alcohol consumption exceeding 21 units (1 unit = 360 mL of beer, or 150 mL of wine, or 45 mL of 40% alcohol spirits)];

16. Had a history of drug abuse within 6 months before screening;

17. Has a family or personal history of long QT interval syndrome;

18. The investigator believes that the subject has conditions that may compromise their safety or compliance, significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of the drug, or prevent them from completing the study.

19. During the screening period, liver function test values exceeded any of the following standards: total bilirubin > 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN); aspartate aminotransferase or alanine aminotransferase > 2 times ULN;

20. During the screening period, glomerular filtration rate < 45 mL/min/1.73 m2, calculated using the CKD-EPI (based on serum creatinine) formula ;
