A Study of Pirfenidone in Patients With Unclassifiable Progressive Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease
Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pirfenidone in participants with fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD) who cannot be classified with moderate or high confidence into any other category of fibrosing ILD by multidisciplinary team (MDT) review ("unclassifiable" ILD).
