Filter by:Prospective, 2-arm, randomised (2:1), multicentre, open-label clinical trial in patients with severe emphysema. The intervention arm will be treated with Bronchoscopic lung volume reduction in severe emphysema using thermoablation.The interventional treatment (bronchoscopic lung volume reduction) is compared with the usual conservative standard therapy (GOLD guidelines).
Prolonged air leak is reported in up to 60 to 75% of patients after lung operation in the presence of severe lung emphysema. The effect of the non-powered AEONTM Endostapler as compared to the Echelon FlexTM Powered plus stapler on the volume and duration of air leak and on the time to chest drain removal after lung operation in the presence of severe lung emphysema will be investigated in a randomized, prospective, single-blinded clinical trial.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of e-cigarettes and continued smoking on pulmonary and cardiac outcomes in a population with established pulmonary disease.
This is an Expanded Access Program (EAP) for eligible participants with Pulmonary Hypertension associated with Interstitial Lung Disease (PH-ILD) designed to provide access to Inhaled Treprostinil. Availability will depend on territory elegibility.
This is a 6 week crossover study in former smokers with and without COPD to evaluate whether 2 weeks of dual antiplatelet therapy (aspirin 81mg and clopidogrel 75mg) improves pulmonary perfusion (i.e. blood flow in the lungs measured on a contrast CT scan) compared to placebo.
Some sparse scientific data support the hypothesis that otherwise unexplained emphysema may be associated with FLNA mutation. This prospective, monocentric, cross-sectional study aimed to describe the frequency of emphysema in patients carrying an FLNA mutation. Patients with FLNA mutations who accept the study will benefit from a chest physician's clinical examination, respiratory function tests and a chest scan. The primary endpoint is to describe emphysema's frequency in patients carrying FLNA mutation. The other objectives are to describe emphysema's features in these patients and to describe their lung function abnormalities. The final goal is to confirm the association between unexplained emphysema and FLNA mutation.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of RYMPHYSIA [Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor (Human)] compared to another available alpha-1 proteinase Inhibitor (A1PI) in adults with A1PI deficiency and COPD-emphysema. In Part A of the study, participants will be randomly assigned to receive either RYMPHYSIA or another available A1PI for 104 weeks. Participants who were randomized to another available A1PI will enter a 2-week follow-up period after the treatment phase is completed; participants who were randomized to RYMPHYSIA will enter Part B. In Part B, participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups and will receive either the same dose of RYMPHYSIA as in Part A or a different dose for an additional 104 weeks, followed by a 2-week follow-up period.
The purpose of this study is to determine if doxycycline will reduce progression of emphysema in people living with HIV. The secondary objectives are to examine the effects of doxycycline on change in quantity of emphysema, six minute walk distance, patient reported outcomes, ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 second and forced vital capacity. Secondary objectives will also describe the safety and tolerability of doxycycline and determine if doxycycline is associated with development of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections.
