This study is open to adults who had an acute stroke caused by a clot blocking a blood vessel in the brain (acute ischemic stroke). This study is for people who had an acute stroke or woke up with a stroke and were last seen well more than 4.5 hours before joining the study. Participants need to have imaging that shows there is brain tissue that can still be saved. They also should not be planned to receive a procedure to remove the blood clot. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called tenecteplase helps people recover from an acute stroke. Tenecteplase is already used to treat people within 4.5 hours after they had a stroke. This study tests if tenecteplase also helps if it is given more than 4.5 hours after the stroke. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group gets tenecteplase as a single injection into a vein. The other group receives standard medical practice. Participants have an equal chance of receiving tenecteplase or the standard treatment. Participants are in the study for about 3 months. In the beginning, participants stay in the hospital for about 1 week. During the study, participants have 7 clinical examinations or visits. The last 2 of these visits will likely be done from home, allowing participants to complete certain assessments remotely. Doctors regularly test participants' recovery using a scale that measures the level of disability or dependence in daily activities. The results are compared between the 2 groups to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.Show more

This study is open to people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF). They can only take part if they have completed treatment in a previous study with a medicine called nerandomilast or BI 1015550. The goal of this study is to find out how well people with pulmonary fibrosis tolerate long- term treatment with nerandomilast. The study also tests whether nerandomilast improves lung function and prolongs the time until symptoms get worse, participants need to go to the hospital, or die. Every participant takes nerandomilast as tablets for up to 1 year and 10 months. The participants may also continue their regular treatment for pulmonary fibrosis during the study. Participants visit their doctors regularly. During these visits, the doctors collect information on any health problems of the participants. Participants also regularly do lung function tests.Show more

PODOMOUNT-pFSGS This study is open to adults and adolescents with a kidney condition called focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 764198 helps people with FSGS. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. Every participant has an equal chance of being in each group. One group takes BI 764198 tablets, and the other group takes placebo tablets. Placebo tablets look like BI 764198 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take a tablet once a day for up to 2 years. All participants also continue their standard medication for FSGS. Participants are in the study for up to 2 years. During this time, they visit the study site about every 3 months. Participants regularly collect urine samples. This is done to check their kidneys. The results are compared between the two groups to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.Show more

Nerandomilast is being developed to help people with systemic sclerosis by potentially improving symptoms and slowing disease progression. This study is open to adults who are at least 18 years old and have systemic sclerosis (SSc). People can join the study if they have limited or diffuse cutaneous SSc with disease onset within 7 years of the first non-Raynaud's symptom. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called nerandomilast helps people with systemic sclerosis. This study also aims to find out how well nerandomilast is tolerated in people with systemic sclerosis. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group takes nerandomilast tablets and the other group takes placebo tablets. Placebo tablets look like nerandomilast tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take the tablets twice a day. Participants are in the study for 1 to about 4 years. During this time, they visit the study site regularly and get phone calls from the site staff. During study visits participants regularly have blood samples taken and doctors check changes in skin thickening, lung function, and internal organs, overall health and the safety and tolerability of study treatment in people with SSc. The results are compared between the groups to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.Show more

This study is open to people aged 40 years or older who have at least 1 family member with pulmonary fibrosis. Pulmonary fibrosis is a condition where lung tissue becomes scarred, making it harder to breathe. People can join if a lung scan shows early changes in the lung, called interstitial lung abnormalities, which may lead to lung scarring. People with family members who have pulmonary fibrosis are more likely to develop it themselves. That is why it is important to check early for lung changes and find ways to prevent the condition from getting worse. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called nerandomilast can help slow down changes in the lung in people with a family history of pulmonary fibrosis. Participants are put into one of 2 groups randomly, which means the group is chosen by chance. One group takes nerandomilast tablets, and the other group takes placebo tablets. Placebo tablets look like nerandomilast tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take a tablet twice a day for about 2 to 3 years. There is a 3 out of 5 chance that participants will receive nerandomilast instead of the placebo. Participants are in the study for about 2 to 3 years. Participants visit the study site multiple times: more frequently during the first 2 years (about every 3 months), and then every 6 months thereafter. In the 3rd year, participants also have phone calls with the site staff every 3 months. Doctors regularly test lung function and take chest scans to see if the treatment works. The results are compared between the 2 groups to see if nerandomilast helps. The doctors also check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.Show more

The goal of this clinical trial is to test efficacy of different investigational products (IPs) compared with placebo on the change from baseline to the end of the treatment period at Week 52 in lung capacity in participants with Interstitial Lung Disease Secondary to Systemic Sclerosis.Show more

This is a cross-sectional study that will be conducted across Japan using an online patient-reported outcome questionnaire. This study tries to find out the attitudes toward and experiences of the emotional and/or social impact of side effects associated with antifibrotic (AF) treatment among Japanese patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)/Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis (PPF), and how are these attitudes associated with patients' individual characteristics.Show more
