PureTech to Present Deupirfenidone as Potential New Standard for IPF Treatment
PureTech Health is set to present its deupirfenidone (LYT-100) program at the American Thoracic Society International Conference. Deupirfenidone is being developed as a potential new standard of care for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a progressive and fatal lung disease. The presentations will highlight the drug's differentiated approach and its potential to improve upon current treatments. The Phase 3 SURPASS-IPF trial aims to demonstrate deupirfenidone's superiority over existing therapies, addressing the unmet need for more effective IPF treatments. The drug has shown promise in stabilizing lung function with a favorable safety profile in earlier trials.
