Here is the Answer to your Question:

The element you referred as find_element_by_id("submit-download-list") actually downloads a PDF file. So for the benefit of future programmers and readers of this question/post/thread/discussion, you may consider to change your question header to Download and Save PDF file using selenium and python from popup

Here is the code block to Download and Save PDF file using selenium and python from popup:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_binary import FirefoxBinary
from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

binary = FirefoxBinary('C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe')
newpath = 'C:\\home\\DebanjanB'
if not os.path.exists(newpath):
    os.makedirs(newpath)

profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
profile.set_preference("browser.download.dir",newpath)
profile.set_preference("browser.download.folderList",2)
profile.set_preference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk", "text/plain,text/x-csv,text/csv,application/vnd.ms-excel,application/csv,application/x-csv,text/csv,text/comma-separated-values,text/x-comma-separated-values,text/tab-separated-values,application/pdf")
profile.set_preference("browser.download.manager.showWhenStarting",False)
profile.set_preference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.openFile","text/plain,text/x-csv,text/csv,application/vnd.ms-excel,application/csv,application/x-csv,text/csv,text/comma-separated-values,text/x-comma-separated-values,text/tab-separated-values,application/pdf")
profile.set_preference("browser.helperApps.alwaysAsk.force", False)
profile.set_preference("browser.download.manager.useWindow", False)
profile.set_preference("browser.download.manager.focusWhenStarting", False)
profile.set_preference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.openFile", "")
profile.set_preference("browser.download.manager.alertOnEXEOpen", False)
profile.set_preference("browser.download.manager.showAlertOnComplete", False)
profile.set_preference("browser.download.manager.closeWhenDone", True)
profile.set_preference("pdfjs.disabled", True)

caps = DesiredCapabilities.FIREFOX
browser = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=profile, capabilities=caps, firefox_binary=binary, executable_path='C:\\Utility\\BrowserDrivers\\geckodriver.exe')
browser.maximize_window()
browser.get("https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?cond=&term=lomitapide&cntry1=&state1=&SearchAll=Search+all+studies&recrs=")
browser.find_element_by_id("save-list-link").click()
download_link = WebDriverWait(browser, 10).until(
    EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//input[@id='submit-download-list']"))
)
download_link.click()

You are getting the exception ElementNotInteractableException because the element will be accessible after once the popup opens up. You are missing to click the download link which opens up the popup. please try the following,

from selenium import webdriver
fp=webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
fp.set_preference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk","text/csv")
browser = webdriver.Firefox(fp)
browser.get("https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?cond=&term=lomitapide&cntry1=&state1=&SearchAll=Search+all+studies&recrs=")
browser.find_element_by_id("save-list-link").click()
browser.find_element_by_id("submit-download-list")
