Patient Education
At Endeavor, we believe that advocating for yourself as a patient is important. Here are some tools to help get you started. As always, we encourage discussing any and all information provided below with your doctor.
What help can Endeavor Offer?
Endeavor is conducting a Phase 2 clinical trial to study our investigational therapy, ENV-101, to potentially help better the lives of those who are living with IPF. ENV-101 acts on a protein in the body that is thought to be involved in the scarring of the lungs. By blocking this process, ENV-101 may slow progression of the disease, which may improve the symptoms of IPF.
Enrollment for this trial is currently closed. If you are interested in more information about our Phase 2b study please contact EBMClinical@endeavorbiomedicines.com.
