A Comparison of a Medication Adherence Platform (FORTISKAP™) vs. Usual Care in Subjects on Oral Medications for the Treatment of Interstitial Lung Disease, Sarcoid and Pulmonary Hypertension (NCT07613216)

🟡 Not Yet Recruiting Interventional Protocol 📊 Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: Cosmos Rx, Inc

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This study will evaluate whether participants with serious lung diseases such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, sarcoidosis, and pulmonary hypertension who use the FORTISKAP™ smart medication cap - a bottle-top device that tracks prescription bottle openings and sends dose reminders to participants and their care team - take their medications more consistently and experience better health outcomes compared to similar participants receiving standard care without the device. Participation requires no changes to prescribed medications, testing or clinical visits beyond what is already part of routine care; participants use a modified medication bottle equipped with the FORTISKAP™ cap for nine months.
