Response to Exercise and Nitric Oxide in PAD
Recruiting
RESIST PAD is a randomized trial of 200 PAD patients to establish: 1) whether a 12-week exercise intervention significantly increases Δ nitrite at 12-week follow-up, compared to control; 2) whether exercise "responders" have greater Δ nitrite increases compared to "non-responders"; 3) among non-responders, whether supplementing exercise with nitrate-rich beetroot juice between weeks 13-24 increases Δ nitrite and improves 6-minute walk at 24-week follow-up.

Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Efzofitimod in Patients With Systemic Sclerosis (SSc)-Related Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) (SSc-ILD)
Recruiting
This is a 2-Part study with Part A, a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, PoC study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of efzofitimod in patients with SSc-ILD.
