Testing an Inhaled Study Drug Treprostinil for People with Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis
(IRB#: IRB_00173081)
Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis is a disease scarring the lungs causing shortness of breath. The disease worsens over time. This study will test an inhaled (to breathe in) study drug called Treprostinil to treat people with this disease. The study wants to see if the drug will help people with the disease and is safe. People in the study will be randomly chosen to be treated with inhaled Treprostinil or placebo. The placebo looks like the study drug but does not have the medication. Being in the study requires 8 in-person study visits at the study clinic for up to 58 weeks. Medical tests will be done to track the health of participants.
