Daewoong begins administration in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis trial

 Bersiporocin's Phase II clinical trial for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis has begun, according to Daewoong Pharmaceutical.

The purpose of the multinational Phase II clinical trial is to determine whether Bersiporocin is safe and effective in modifying the improvement rate of forced vital capacity (FVC) after 24 weeks of treatment with Bersiporocin or a placebo.

Nearly 30 institutions in the Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Drugs development Market have carried it out, and 102 people have signed up to take part in the trial.

By the following year, the company intends to finish administering Bersiporocin to the participants and evaluate the results.

In the upcoming multinational Phase II clinical administration, it intends to demonstrate the improvement in pulmonary function and the antifibrotic efficacy of Bersiporocin.

Bersiporocin's potential as a treatment for numerous uncommon fibrosis diseases will be further investigated if it proves effective.

Toby Maher, a clinical medicine professor at the Keck School of Medicine at USC Los Angeles, stated: We are putting in a lot of effort to come up with a new treatment for people who have idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

"An important step in the development of treatments that address the shortcomings of existing anti-fibrotic therapies is the Phase II clinical trial of Bersiposocin by Daewoong Pharmaceutical."

Bersiposocin is a first-in-class candidate that can treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a condition in which the lungs harden and fibrous tissue builds up too much.

According to Daewoong Pharmaceutical, the company will continue to develop treatments for patients with fibroid lung disease and will expand its focus to include other progressive rare fibrosis diseases of the liver, skin, heart, lung, and kidney.

A company representative stated: By registering the first candidate and completing the Phase II clinical administration of Bersiporocin, the self-developing first-in-class treatment, Daewoong Pharmaceutical has made a significant first step for patients.
