Study of Oral Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in IPF Patients

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The primary purpose of this multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging Phase I study is to assess the safety of a purified from green tea, EGCG, in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) as a potential novel treatment for pulmonary fibrosis.

Official Title

Dose Ranging Study of Oral Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) Given Daily for 12 Weeks to Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) Evaluating Safety, PK Interactions With Standard of Care Drugs, and Biomarkers of Drug Effect

  4. 4. Participant has IPF satisfying the 2022 ATS diagnostic criteria, confirmed by enrolling investigator at Visit 1.
  5. 5. Participant must have been on a stable dose of nintedanib twice daily or pirfenidone three times daily dose for at least 12 weeks prior to baseline (Visit 2).
  6. 6. Participant has a FVC ≥ 50% predicted using the global lung function initiative (GLI).

Adequate methods of contraception include use of oral contraceptives or Depo-Provera, with an additional barrier method (diaphragm with spermicidal gel or condoms with spermicide), double-barrier methods (diaphragm with spermicidal gel and condoms with spermicide), partner vasectomy, and total abstinence.
  9. 9. Participant has a life expectancy of at least 9 months at Visit 1.
  10. 10. Ability to take oral medication and be willing to adhere to EGCG regimen.
  11. 11. Agreement to refrain from drinking green tea in excess of a cup a day or eating green tea extract for 4 weeks before baseline and during the trial.
  1. 1. AST, ALT, or direct bilirubin above upper limit normal from any cause at the Screening Visit.

  7. 7. Participant has any concurrent condition other than IPF that, in the Investigator's opinion, is unstable and/or would impact the likelihood of survival for the study duration or the participant's ability to complete the study as designed, or may influence any of the safety or efficacy assessments included in the study.
  8. 8. Participant has baseline resting oxygen saturation of \< 89% on room air or need for continuous oxygen use at baseline visit (Visit 2).
