Using Indoor Air Filtration to Slow Atherothrombosis Progression in Adults

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This double-blind, randomized, crossover trial aims to test the hypothesis that longer-term indoor air filtration intervention can slow atherothrombosis progression by reducing indoor fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure in adults with ischemic heart disease history.

Clinical Trial Description

This double-blind, randomized, crossover trial will recruit 112 adults with ischemic heart disease history and will investigate potential benefits of indoor high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration on ameliorating the progression of atherothrombosis. Participants will be contacted and recruited to the study based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. After consenting, participants will go through a total of 21-month study period comprised of true HEPA filtration and sham filtration, each of 9-month in duration, and a 3-month wash-out period. After 3-month wash-out period, participants will be switched to the other arm of the intervention. During the trial, project specialists will complete a series of home visits before, in the middle, and after each intervention session to set up air purifiers and indoor and outdoor air pollution monitors, as well as conduct interview to collect questionnaire data, measure vascular function, blood pressure, and collect biospecimens. Participants will self-monitor their daily blood pressure through out the intervention periods. In aim 1, researchers will assess the effect of a 9-month residential HEPA intervention on atherothrombosis progression in 112 participants. In aim 2, the researchers will examine the association between reduction in indoor PM2.5 exposure brought by the intervention and the changes in atherothrombosis progression indicators adjusting for outdoor PM2.5 exposure. In aim 3, researchers will examine atherothrombosis responses (both levels and slopes of change) to the HEPA intervention within four subgroups of participants: 1) non-Hispanics, 2) Hispanics, 3) females, and 4) males. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
