Collagen-targeted Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Imaging for Assessment of EGCG Effect

Description

The primary purpose of this substudy is to determine if collagen-targeted PET using the type 1 collagen-targeted PET probe, Gallium-68 (68Ga)-labeled collagen binding probe 8 (CBP8) can inform as to drug effect of EGCG and assist in dose selection.

Conditions

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
