A Phase 2 interventional study of Opelconazole and Standard of Care in Pulmonary Aspergillosis, sponsored by Pulmocide Ltd. Completed at 19 sites in 2 countries. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-04-30.
Sponsored by Pulmocide Ltd · Phase 2, Interventional, and Prevention
A study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of opelconazole for the prevention of fungal aspergillus infections in the lung in participants who have received a lung transplant.
Part 1 of the study comprises a 12 week Prophylaxis or Pre-emptive Therapy Phase. Part 2 comprises a 4-week Safety Follow-Up Phase.
The study will screen single or double lung transplant recipients due to receive a mold-active antifungal: either as de novo prophylaxis or as pre-emptive therapy (for participants with Aspergillus spp. colonization of the respiratory tract but no evidence of pulmonary fungal disease). Only participants who fulfill all the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be randomized.
78 studies on the registry are indexed under Pulmonary Aspergillosis; 9 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 102 is above the median of 60 across 38 interventional studies indexed under Pulmonary Aspergillosis.
