Advancing IPF Clinical Research: A Global Perspective

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive lung disease characterized by the scarring of lung tissue and a steady decline in respiratory function, most commonly affecting individuals between the ages of 60 and 70. Novotech’s latest report identifies more than 800 industry-sponsored IPF clinical trials launched globally since 2020, reflecting strong research momentum and a growing commitment across the biotech and pharmaceutical sectors to address the increasing burden of this serious condition.

Key insights:

  • Global Clinical Trial Activity: The Asia-Pacific region accounts for the largest share of global IPF clinical trials at 44%, primarily driven by significant activity in Mainland China. North America follows with 23%, led by the United States, while Europe contributes 21%, with notable trial concentration in the United Kingdom and Germany.
  • Emerging Therapeutic Innovations: The development pipeline is advancing with novel therapeutic approaches, including RNA interference (RNAi)-based therapies, PDE4 inhibitors, cell-based treatments, and monoclonal antibodies—signaling promising progress in IPF management and patient outcomes.
  • Advancements in Trial Design and Biomarkers: Precision medicine and patient-centric trial methodologies, coupled with the integration of key biomarkers, are improving diagnostic accuracy, disease monitoring, and the assessment of therapeutic efficacy in IPF studies.
  • Investment and Funding Landscape: Strong venture capital activity is fueling early- and mid-stage IPF drug development, particularly in the United States and Europe. Public-sector contributions, including funding from the EU Horizon 2020 program and the U.S. Department of Defense, are also instrumental in supporting innovation.
  • Addressing Racial and Ethnic Disparities: The report highlights the critical need for greater diversity in IPF clinical trials and calls for equitable care strategies and targeted education to reduce treatment disparities across racial and ethnic populations.
