In the Elevate Study, we are evaluating an investigational drug that works in a similar fashion as one of the
currently approved drugs for IPF but is designed to have fewer and less severe side effects. We are seeking
people who have not yet begun treatment for their IPF to participate in the Elevate Study.
Currently approved drugs for IPF can slow down the rate at which the symptoms become worse. However,
some people who take these drugs cannot tolerate them because of the side effects.
This is why it is important for medical researchers to look for new and, hopefully, better treatments for
individuals with IPF.
Before new medications can be approved for public use, they must be tested in research studies like this one.
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with IPF and not yet started treatment, please read on to learn
more about participating in our study.
Approximately 240 people are expected to participate in the Elevate Study.
All study-related medical examinations and study treatments are provided to qualified participants at no cost.
