PureTech Health (PRTC) presented promising Phase 2b ELEVATE IPF trial results for deupirfenidone (LYT-100) at the 2025 ATS Conference. The drug demonstrated significant efficacy in treating idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). At 825 mg TID dosing, deupirfenidone showed an 80.9% treatment effect vs. placebo, approximately 50% greater than pirfenidone's 54.1% effect. The drug slowed lung function decline to -21.5 mL over 26 weeks and preliminary 52-week data showed -32.8 mL decline, comparable to healthy older adults' natural decline. Importantly, deupirfenidone maintained favorable tolerability despite 50% higher drug exposure compared to pirfenidone. PureTech plans to meet with the FDA by Q3 2025 and aims to initiate Phase 3 trials by year-end.

PureTech Health (NASDAQ: PRTC) has published new research in BMC Pulmonary Medicine revealing critical insights into the experiences of people living with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). The study, conducted with 106 IPF patients across the US, highlighted significant challenges in diagnosis, treatment, and quality of life.

Key findings include varied diagnosis timelines with frequent delays, low antifibrotic treatment uptake, and challenges in managing multiple health conditions. Nearly 90% of participants reported managing additional health challenges alongside IPF. The research also revealed that while supplemental oxygen therapy provides symptom relief, patients face logistical, financial, and emotional challenges.

The study, led by Dr. Camilla Graham and conducted in collaboration with experts from the University of Alabama, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, and the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation, emphasizes the need for enhanced disease awareness, streamlined diagnosis, and patient-centered treatment approaches.

The company maintained a robust financial position with $366.8 million in cash at PureTech level as of December 2024, providing operational runway into 2027. Notable achievements include their Founded Entity, Seaport Therapeutics, raising over $325 million.
