About this trial
MKC-NI-002 is a Phase 1b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of nintedanib inhalation powder (MNKD-201) in patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). The trial consists of Multiple Ascending Doses (MAD) with the primary objective to evaluate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of MNKD-201 compared to placebo in patients with IPF.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Is ≥40 to ≤85 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent form.
Diagnosis of IPF
Either treatment-naive or is currently on background pirfenidone or nerandomilast on a stable dose for at least 3 months prior to Screening.
Has FVC >45% of predicted of normal, as determined by the central spirometry reader, during Screening.
Disqualifiers
Known explanation for interstitial lung disease, including but not limited to radiation, sarcoidosis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, and bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia.
Diagnosis of any connective tissue disease, including but not limited to scleroderma/systemic sclerosis, polymyositis/dermatomyositis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and rheumatoid arthritis, regardless of whether or not it is presumed to be related to their pulmonary fibrosis diagnosis.
Major extrapulmonary physiological restriction (e.g., chest wall abnormality, large pleural effusion), as determined by the investigator.
