About this study
In plain language
This study tests whether L606 is safe and helps adults ages 18 to 80 with high blood pressure in the lungs caused by interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD). It will check how far people can walk in six minutes and how long it takes for their disease to get worse. People will be assigned by chance to get L606 or a placebo, which has no active medicine.
The purpose of this study is to find out if L606 is safe and if it helps people with high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary hypertension) caused by interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD, WHO Group 3). One of the main ways the study will check this is by seeing if people can walk further in six minutes (called the "six-minute walk test"). Another important (secondary) goal is to see how long it takes for PH-ILD to get worse while people are taking L606. One way the study will measure this is by looking at the distance people walk at different times in the study on different doses of L606. Throughout the study, doctors will also closely monitor for any side effects people have to make sure L606 is safe. People who decide to join this study will be randomly (like tossing a coin) placed into one of two groups: one group will get L606 and the other group will get a placebo, which will look like L606 but will not contain any active medicine. At the end of the initial blinded portion of the study, study participants may have the opportunity to enroll in an open-label extension portion of the study where all participants will receive L606.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- Are 18 to 80 years old.
- Have interstitial lung disease, which affects tissue in the lungs, confirmed by a detailed chest CT scan.
- Have high blood pressure in the lungs confirmed by a right heart catheter test, which measures pressure using a thin tube.
- Have resistance to blood flow in the lungs of at least 4 Wood units.
- Have an average lung artery pressure of at least 25 mmHg.
- Have a heart filling pressure, measured as PCWP or LVEDP, of 15 mmHg or less.
- Have a breathing test ratio called FEV1/FVC above 0.70.
- Can walk at least 150 meters in six minutes.
Who can't join
- Have high blood pressure in the lungs in WHO Group 1, 2, 4, or 5, rather than Group 3.
- Have significant disease on the left side of the heart shown by a heart ultrasound.
- Have a history of atrial fibrillation, an irregular heartbeat, that is ongoing, permanent, or not controlled.
- Have severe obstructive sleep apnea, which causes breathing to stop and start during sleep.
- Have had a flare-up of lung disease or an active breathing infection needing antibiotics.
- Are starting pulmonary rehabilitation, a program to help with breathing and activity.
