An announcement from PureTech Health ( (GB:PRTC) ) is now available.

PureTech Health announced promising results from its Phase 2b trial of deupirfenidone (LYT-100) for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The trial demonstrated that deupirfenidone significantly slowed lung function decline compared to placebo, with the 825 mg dose showing a robust 80.9% treatment effect. The drug was well-tolerated with fewer gastrointestinal side effects than the current standard-of-care, pirfenidone. These findings support further development and suggest deupirfenidone could become a new standard-of-care for IPF, marking a potential breakthrough in the treatment landscape for this severe lung disease.
