Airway Clearance Therapy on Hyperpolarized 129Xenon & MRI

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This is an observational cohort study building on an existing protocol at our institution recruiting CF patients who are 6-21 years old with one or two copies of the F508del CFTR mutation. That existing protocol seeks to enroll a total of 38 subjects; it includes three to four (three scheduled, with a fourth optional) study visits, with spirometry, LCI, UTE MRI, and 129Xe MRI being performed at each visit. This present study will utilize existing study visits for the NHLBI study, with a sub-set of 20 subjects opting-in to have all of the procedures performed twice, with an intervening ACT, during one of their study visits.

Clinical Trial Description

This is an observational cohort study building on an existing protocol at our institution recruiting CF patients who are 6-21 years old with one or two copies of the F508del CFTR mutation. The existing protocol is funded by the NHLBI under R01-11863962 (PIs Woods, Clancy, and hereafter referred to as "the NHLBI study" for simplicity), and seeks to enroll a total of 38 subjects; it includes three to four (three scheduled, with a fourth optional) study visits, with spirometry, LCI, UTE MRI, and 129Xe MRI being performed at each visit. This present study will utilize existing study visits for the NHLBI study, with patients opting-in to have all of the procedures performed twice, with an intervening ACT, during one their study visits. The target enrollment is 20 subjects. Airway clearance therapy (ACT) is used for treating cystic fibrosis (CF). It is known to impact measures of lung function, and while an increasing number of lung function measures are used in clinical trials, there has been no direct comparison of the effects of ACT across the different modalities. This study is actively investigating the relationship between different measures of lung function, comparing a spirometric measure (FEV1 percent-predicted) with measures of whole-lung ventilation (lung clearance index, or LCI) and regional assessments of both structure (with ultra-short echo time magnetic resonance imaging, or UTE MRI) and function (with hyperpolarized xenon, or 129Xe, MRI). Performing these assessments on CF patients will help to elucidate the relative sensitivity of each measure to intra-individual changes within the lung and will help guide the selection of lung function measures in future studies. ;

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.
