Filter by:This research is a study to test the reliability of Hyperpolarized Xenon MRI (HXe MRI) as a biomarker in interstitial lung disease. The study is a non-randomized study to evaluate the test-retest performance of HXe MRI in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and chronic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis (cHP) as a non-invasive biomarker of disease severity and prognosis. The study will include approximately 15 subjects with IPF, 15 subjects with cHP and 10 sex and age-matched normal controls performed across 3 sites.
Radiology is an important component of the multidisciplinary team. The primary goal of this project will be to create a tool using findings on chest computed tomography (CT) for nearly 300 patients with the most common types of fibrosis. The tool will be tested using chest CT scans of an additional 100 patients with the 3 most common diagnoses of fibrosis. The second objective will be to further validate the tool by performing a reader study with 3 co-investigating radiologists and ask them to look at 100 CT scans of patients with fibrosis without tool and then with tool and see if accuracy of diagnosis improves compared to the working diagnosis when using the tool.
A study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Longidaze for the prevention and treatment of post-inflammatory pulmonary fibrosis and interstitial lung disease following COVID-19.
This Phase 1b trial is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of oral ORIN1001 at 25 mg, 50 mg or 100 mg administered daily for up to 28 days in adult subjects with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) alone or in conjunction with local Standard of Care for IPF (pirfenidone or nintedanib). A maximum of 24 evaluable subjects will be required to complete the study. The study will consist of 3 dose cohorts each enrolling a maximum of 8 subjects randomized either to the active (5 subjects) group or placebo (3 subjects) group. Each subject will receive daily oral doses of ORIN1001 or placebo for 28 days. The safety and pharmacokinetic profile will be evaluated in this study and will include cardiovascular and pulmonary endpoints.
TELO-SCOPE is a national, multi-centre, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised (2:1) trial which will test the hypothesis that, compared to placebo, the addition of danazol to standard of care in pulmonary fibrosis associated with short telomeres is safe and will result in reduced telomere attrition.
This is a collaborative study between Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals and up to 9 other clinical centers across the US to determine the effect of nintedanib on slowing the rate of lung disease in patients who have been diagnosed with COVID-19, and have ongoing lung injury more than 30 days out from their diagnosis. Required one of the following after diagnosis with SARS-CoV-2: supplemental oxygen by nasal cannula, high flow oxygen, non invasive ventilation such as CPAP or BIPAP, or mechanical ventilation or a history of desaturation below 90%.
Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis(IPF) is the most common idiopathic interstitial lung disease whose cause is unknown. With age and gender, socio-economic factors are the most influential indicators of health. At present there is very little data on socio-economic factors in the IPF. The investigators hypothesize that a lower socio-economic level and / or exposure to various air pollutants may influence the IPF's natural history, including the severity of diagnosis and prognosis of the IPF. The investigators also hypothesize that the deleterious effect of air pollutants is modulated by individual susceptibility (shorter telomeres) and that this effect is related to oxidative stress and shortening of telomeres.
To better understand the clinical characteristics of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) / Systemic Sclerosis-associated-Interstitial Lung Disease (SSc-ILD)/ Progressive Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease (PF-ILD) patients treated with nintedanib and biomarkers associated with the disease course, a non-interventional, 3-year, prospective study will be conducted to collect the long-term real-world clinical data on IPF/SSc-ILD/PF-ILD patients newly administered with nintedanib in Taiwan
Study population: Patients with fibrotic lung sequelae after recovery from acute phase of severe COVID19 pneumonia Objectives: To evaluate the effect of pirfenidone administered for 24 weeks in patients who have pulmonary fibrotic changes after suffering severe COVID19 pneumonia, analysed by - % change in forced vital capacity (FVC) - % fibrosis in high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the lung
Scarring of the lung, termed pulmonary fibrosis (PF), is a chronic, progressive, and usually fatal disorder. While two anti-fibrotic drugs have been approved for treating PF of unknown cause (idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis or IPF), neither drug is curative, and nearly 40% of patients stop taking the prescribed drug within a year because of side effects. The study includes the use of saracatinib, an investigational drug originally developed to treat certain types of cancers, in the treatment of IPF in a Phase 1b/2a clinical trial. The objectives of this study are to: i) evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, and to explore the efficacy of saracatinib in IPF; ii) identify biomarkers of Src kinase activity and fibrogenesis linked to pulmonary fibrosis; and iii) explore the application of these biomarkers to assess the anti-fibrotic effect of saracatinib in IPF patients
