Filter by:The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the severity of fibrosis in the lung tissue and EGFR positivity in patients who died due to covid-19 pneumonia, with the demographic characteristics, comorbidities, biochemistry values, treatments they received, and radiological appearances. Transthoracic tru-cut biopsy will be performed on patients who have died in the intensive care unit with the diagnosis of Covid 19 pneumonia. EGFR positivity will be evaluated in the material taken. The relationship between the severity of fibrosis and the demographic data of the patients, the drugs used and their radiological appearances will be analyzed statistically.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by alterations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene, characterized by multisystemic alterations, mainly in the lung, intestine, sweat, and bile ducts. In addition to pulmonary involvement, the presence of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency also increases the risk of survival, as it is associated with malnutrition and deficiency of fat-soluble vitamins, such as vitamin D. Vitamin D, in addition to its role in bone health, in the case of CF patients with chronic inflammation, it has been suggested that many of the cytokines that regulate the inflammatory response contain elements that respond to vitamin D, so vitamin D could play an essential role in the regulation of the inflammatory response in CF, which could favor lung function. However, more than 50% of CF patients present vitamin D insufficiency or deficiency, despite the different schemes suggested for supplementation in different age groups, which suggests that new strategies are needed to normalize vitamin D levels, which will allow us to see its clinical effect on the inflammatory response, by decreasing the number of exacerbations and thus perpetuating or improving lung function, as well as on bone mineral health.
Study RIN-PF-303 is a multinational study designed to evaluate the superiority of inhaled treprostinil against placebo for the change in absolute forced vital capacity (FVC) from baseline to Week 52.
This is a Phase 1/2 multicenter, open-label, single dose trial of 4D-710 investigational gene therapy in adults with CF who are ineligible for or unable to tolerate CFTR modulator therapy.
The XENON ILD study is a single arm, un-blinded study at Duke University enrolling patients with non-idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) progressive fibrosis (PF) interstitial lung disease (ILD). Patients who meet criteria for ILD-progression (defined below in inclusion/exclusion criteria) will be consented prior to the initiation of anti-fibrotic therapy. Subjects will undergo an approximately hour long comprehensive MRI protocol, including administration of multiple doses of hyperpolarized 129Xe. The subjects will have this initial study prior to initiation of anti-fibrotic therapies and repeat MRI studies at 3, 6 and 12 months following the initiation of therapy. If subjects do not decide to initiate anti-fibrotic therapy per discussion with their physician, then the 3, 6 and 12 months repeat studies will initiate based on time after enrollment.
The primary purpose of this multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging Phase I study is to assess the safety of a purified from green tea, EGCG, in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) as a potential novel treatment for pulmonary fibrosis.
Following whole blood stimulation with mesenchymal stem cell derived exosomes, immune phenotype, cytokine release and mRNA expression patterns from critically ill patients with COVID-19 will be determined.
It is to determine the effectiveness of different telerehabilitation exercise programs received to 2 groups randomly formed in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) patients. The cases meeting the inclusion criteria will be randomized and divided into two groups, the groups will be named as Telerehabilitation Exercise Group (TGr) and Video Group (VGr).
This is a single arm prospective pilot trial that evaluates the ability of a novel imaging agent (68Ga-FAP-2286) to identify pathologic fibrosis in the setting of hepatic, cardiac and pulmonary fibrosis. FAP-2286 is a peptide that potently and selectively binds to Fibroblast Activation Protein (FAP). FAP is a transmembrane protein expressed on fibroblasts and has been shown to have higher expression in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), cirrhosis, and cardiac fibrosis.
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.
