Medical uses

Nerandomilast is indicated for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and for the treatment of progressive pulmonary fibrosis. [1] [5] [7]

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis affects the tissue surrounding the air sacs, or alveoli, in the lungs. [6] It develops when this lung tissue becomes thick and stiff. [6] Over time, these changes can cause permanent lung scarring (fibrosis) that makes it more difficult to breathe. [6]

Progressive pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic disease characterized by gradual, irreversible scarring of the lungs, which can lead to progressive breathing difficulties. [5] Progressive pulmonary fibrosis is an umbrella term that can describe progressive lung scarring in many interstitial lung diseases. [5]

Side effects

Side effects include diarrhea, decreased weight, decreased appetite, and nausea. [5]

History

The efficacy of nerandomilast for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis was evaluated in two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials of adults with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. [6]

The efficacy of nerandomilast for the treatment of progressive pulmonary fibrosis was demonstrated in FIBRONEER-ILD (NCT05321082), a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that enrolled 1,178 adults with progressive pulmonary fibrosis. [5] Participants were randomly assigned 1:1:1 to receive twice daily administration of nerandomilast 9 mg, nerandomilast 18 mg, or placebo, for at least 52 weeks. [5]

Society and culture

Nerandomilast was approved for medical use in the United States in October 2025. [8] [9]

The US Food and Drug Administration granted the application for nerandomilast an orphan drug designation for the idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis indication [10] and breakthrough therapy designation for the progressive pulmonary fibrosis indication. [5]
