Filter by:The aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of different exercise programs applied to 3 groups randomly formed in patients with fibrosing interstitial lung disease (FILD). Secondary purpose: To determine the feasibility and effectiveness of telerehabilitation in FILD cases.
The purpose of this Phase III study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tozorakimab Dose 1 and Dose 2 administered subcutaneously (SC) in adult participants with symptomatic COPD and history of ≥ 2 moderate or ≥ 1 severe exacerbation of COPD in the previous 12 months. Participants should be receiving optimised treatment with maintenance inhaled therapy (ICS/LABA/LAMA triple therapy, or dual therapy if triple is not considered appropriate) in stable doses throughout at least 3 months prior to enrolment.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the correlation between changes from baseline to 52 weeks in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) [% pred.] and changes from baseline to 52 weeks in dyspnea score [points] or cough score [points] as measured with the living with pulmonary fibrosis (L-PF) questionnaire over 52 weeks of nintedanib treatment in patients suffering from chronic fibrosing Interstitial lung disease (ILD) with a progressive phenotype (excluding idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF)).
COPD patients often experience multiple symptoms (e.g. dyspnea, cough, and deteriorating quality of life) and have imposed a substantial economic and social burden on health care. The current proposal is to explore the information needs of COPD patients and to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a smartphone-based instant messaging self-management support program to improve the quality of life in patients with COPD.
This trial will study the safety and efficacy of intravenous infusion of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of Pulmonary Diseases
This is a single center, single surgeon, prospective, randomized trial examining the addition of Cryo Nerve Block during robot assisted thoracoscopic anatomic lung resection surgery
Cognitive and physical function impairments are common in patients diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Research has shown that cognitive and physical exercise training may be a beneficial strategy to improve physical and cognitive performance in COPD patients; however, interventions combining physical and cognitive training have not been evaluated in this population. The objectives of this research are i) to evaluate the feasibility of an 8-week home-based cognitive-physical training program in COPD patients; and ii) to derive preliminary estimates on intervention efficacy with cognitive-physical training on dual-task performance, physical function, activities of daily living, and health-related quality of life. Related to our research objectives, we hypothesize that i) it will be feasible to safely recruit COPD patients into a home-based cognitive physical training program with 75% adherence and high satisfaction ratings with the prescribed training; and that ii) the combination of cognitive and physical training will be superior to physical training alone for improving dual-task and cognitive performance, physical function, activities of daily living, and health-related quality of life.
The main goal of this phase llb study is to compare the efficacy and safety of two doses of HEC585 tablets with placebo which is a look-alike substance that contains no active drug in patients with progressive fibrosing interstitial lung diseases. This study is divided into two stages, i.e. main study stage with 24 weeks treatment duration followed by up to 96 weeks treatment extended study stage.
The purpose of this study is to gather information on the effectiveness of a home-based pulmonary rehabilitation program with health coaching and tele-monitoring for improving patient-reported respiratory-related quality of life and physical activity in patients with fibrotic Interstitial Lung Diseases (f-ILD).
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a common pulmonary manifestation of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM). The overall 5-year mortality is 50%. The prognosis is poor and the treatment is challenging.At present, according to the consensus of IIM-ILD experts, glucocorticoids as first-line treatment are often used in high doses and have a variety of adverse reactions. Previous studies have shown that cyclophosphamide (CYC) is effective for IIM-ILD and tends to be used in rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease(RP-ILD)or refractory ILD. However, CYC is an alkylating agent with many toxic and side effects. It is prone to gonadal inhibition, infection, tumor, hemorrhagic cystitis and other risks. At present, Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) has been widly used in the treatment of IIM, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), ANCA associated vasculitis (AAV). The observational research on MMF in the treatment of IIM-ILD shows that it can delay the progress of pulmonary fibrosis and can be used as the first-line treatment of IIM-ILD. Moreover, immune tolerance caused by defects in the number and/or quality of regulatory T cells (Treg) is considered to be a key source of autoimmune diseases. However, it is unclear whether MMF can improve the immune status of IIM-ILD by increasing Treg cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of MMF for IIM-ILD and its effcts on Treg through a prospective open single arm study, and provide a theoretical basis for the individualized treatment of IIM-ILD, which has important clinical significance.
