Filter by:Recruitment of a carefully characterized cohort of chILD patients, to generate a database and biobank via collecting data on chILD in China. Importantly, compatibility with ongoing United States and Europe chILD data base developments will be factored in.
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are a heterogeneous group of disorders, which encompass a wide range of conditions. In some patients with fibrosing ILDs, a progressive phenotype similar to that observed in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) may develop during the course of the disease (PF-ILD), including patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc)-related ILD. The aim of the study is to estimate the incidence and prevalence and to describe the characteristics of patients diagnosed with non-IPF PF-ILD and SSc-ILD, to describe the natural course of disease, and to explore the correlation between mortality and Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) of the patients with non-IPF PF-ILD. This study will be based on two data sources: the French national medico administrative database (SNDS) and the ILD cohort from the National French center for rare pulmonary diseases in Lyon, France.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pirfenidone in subjects with dermatomyositis interstitial lung disease

This Expanded Access Program is intended to facilitate the availability of OFEV to patients suffering from non Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis-Interstitial Lung Disease (non IPF-ILD) with a progressive clinical course despite Standard of Care treatment and for whom no satisfactory authorised alternative therapy exists or who cannot enter a clinical trial.
Molecular diagnosis of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias is an innovative way to potentially improve the diagnostic accuracy of surgical lung biopsies (SLBs), introducing molecular classifiers of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) vs. non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) vs. chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (CHP). The investigators hypothesize that pre-defined gene expression profiles previously identified on large lung explants can still be identified and reproducible on smaller, clinically available surgical lung biopsies (SLBs), and can be used to increase diagnostic accuracy during multi-disciplinary discussion. The investigators also hypothesize that the expression level of individual, preselected genes that accurately differentiate IPF from NSIP and CHP on lung explants can be reproduced on SLBs. The investigators will isolate RNA from SLBs obtained from patients with IIP and perform microarray analysis to verify the reproducibility of gene expression profiles on SLBs. Individual genes expression levels will be determined by RT-PCR. The diagnosis will be determined by MDD and further validated by prospective follow-up of patients for a period of 3 years. The investigators will assess the impact of molecular diagnostic techniques on interobserver agreement during multi-disciplinary discussion. The investigators will prospectively follow the clinical course of patients after SLB for a period of 3 years to validate the diagnosis, and asses the diagnostic accuracy of molecular techniques.
The purpose of this study is to explore the role of low-dose immediate-release oral morphine as a novel adjunct pharmacotherapy to enable symptomatic adults with advanced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial lung disease (ILD) to exercise at higher intensities for longer durations and maximize the psycho-physiological benefits of a supervised exercise training program. We hypothesize that, compared to placebo, exercise training with oral morphine will result in relatively greater improvements in exercise endurance time and intensity ratings of perceived breathlessness during constant-load cardiopulmonary cycle exercise testing (CPET) at 75% of peak power output (PPO).
The purpose of this proposed research is to investigate the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine sulfate (HCQ, Quensyl) for pediatric ILD(chILD) caused by pulmonary surfactant-associated genes mutations.
The main objective is to assess long term tolerability and safety of treatment with oral nintedanib in patients with Progressive Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease (PF-ILD) who have complete (and did not prematurely discontinue trial medication in) the phase III parent trial, INBUILD® (trial 1199.247).
