Impact of the Ex-vivo Pulmonary Perfusion System on the Microbiome of Lung Grafts and Their Inflammatory Reaction.

ExBioma
Start date: June 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

It is known that the interactions of the graft and recipient microbiome are capable of modulating immune responses, inducing resilience or exacerbation of various inflammatory or fibrotic processes, therefore variations in the lung microbiome are associated with immunological changes in the transplanted lung. The main objective is to understand the impact of new systems for conditioning and improving suboptimal lung grafts with ex vivo perfusion(EVLP) on the lung microbiome and its association with tissue inflammation. The hypothesis is that manipulation of lung grafts and perfusion with broad-spectrum antibiotics during EVLP conditioning changes the lung microbiome, conditioning a less pro-inflammatory environment. The methodology: This is a single-center prospective observational study. 7 consecutive brain-dead donors who do not meet the criteria to be lung donors will be included in the study. They will be carried out: - P1. Detection: The donor without criteria to be a lung donor or rejected by all the transplant teams. - P2. Extraction. - P3. Cold preservation: The left lung will be cold-preserved - P4. EVLP Conservation: The right lung will be prepared and conditioned for 3 hours using EVLP The following samples will be taken at two times: - T0: At the end of the extraction - Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL): Before tracheal clamping, BAL will be taken from the left main bronchus using bronchoscopy. The BAL will be performed on the right lung just before starting P4. - Lung biopsy: Lung biopsy of the lower lobe of both grafts will be performed - Preservation liquid or Perfusion liquid: 20 mL of preservation liquid that is in contact with the left graft before storage, as a sterility control (P3) and 20 mL of perfusion liquid before conditioning, as a sterility control (P4). - T1: At the end of the conservation protocols (P3 or P4). - B.A.L. - Lung biopsy: left lower lobe. - Preservation liquid or Infusion liquid: 20 mL of preservation liquid that is in contact with the left graft or 20 mL of perfusion fluid. Due to the manipulation of the grafts during extraction and use of the technique, which involves extubating the donor and subsequently intubated again the grafts, as well as perfusion for a minimum of 3 hours with antibiotics, the use of EVLP could alter the microbiome of the grafts. This alteration could impact the obtaining of viable organs for transplant, in the immediate postoperative period as well as in the long-term results. There are no studies that analyse the change in the microbiome after conditioning with EVLP or its relationship with inflammatory parameters.

Respiratory Physiotherapy as a Tool to Increase the Number of Solid Organ Donors

Start date: November 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The main objective of the project is to determine the variation of PaO2 / FiO2 (PaFi) after the use of mechanical insufflation-exsufflation (MI-E) or mechanical cough assistant in the donor in brain death (DBD) and in the potential donor in control donor after circulatory death (cDCD) It is a randomized prospective multicentre study. Four centres with a solid organ donation program will participate in the study, the Hospital Clínic i Provincial de Barcelona (HCB), the Germans Tries y Pujol Hospital (HGTP), the Marqués de Valdecilla Hospital (HMV) and the Vall d'Hebron Hospital (HVH). One hundred and sixty consecutive eligible donors will be included in DBD and cDCD older than 18 years. - P1: Eighty donors will be maintained following national guidelines. - P2: Eighty donors will be maintained following national guidelines and: - Manual techniques of secretion drainage - Two sequences separated for 1 min of 6 cycles each of MI-E(Cough Assist E70, Respironics Philips. Demographic variables of the donor and recipient will be collected, as well as differences in PaFi, static compliance, and radiographic changes between P1 and P2 donors. The percentage of lung donors recovered by P2 with respect to P1 will be analyzed.

Biomolecular Phenotyping of Lung Transplant Recipients

LUTX_phenotype
Start date: January 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is a common problem after a lung transplant. It's a sudden lung injury that affects around 30% of patients within 72 hours of getting a new lung. PGD can vary in severity, from mild issues seen on X-rays to severe lung problems, and it can also affect other parts of the body, like the heart and kidneys. The investigators believe that using precision medicine can identify different groups of patients with varying levels of inflammation and provide them with treatments tailored to their specific conditions. This approach has been successful in treating other serious conditions like acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Currently, researchers haven't classified lung transplant patients in this way, and there's limited information on early blood markers for PGD. In an upcoming study, the investigators aim to group lung transplant patients based on their blood markers related to inflammation, blood clotting, and blood vessel problems. The investigators also want to see if these groups are linked to their overall outcomes, especially when it comes to PGD.

Cytokine Filtration in Lung Transplantation: A Swedish National Study (GLUSorb)

Start date: September 7, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Lung transplantation (LTx) remains the gold standard for treating patients with irreversible end-stage pulmonary disease. Of the major organs transplanted, survival in LTx recipients remains the lowest (mean 5 years). Despite improvements, primary graft dysfunction (PGD), as defined by respiratory insufficiency and edema up to 72 hours post LTx, remains the leading cause of early mortality and contributes to the development of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) which is the leading cause of late mortality. PGD develops within the first 72 hours after LTx. The development of CLAD increases quickly with cumulative incidence of 40-80 % within the first 3-5 years. There is a general lack of efficient treatments for PGD and CLAD. Prevention of PGD is therefore of crucial importance and has a direct impact on survival. The present study is a randomized controlled study which aims to compare patients undergoing LTx with and without the utilization of cytokine adsorption.

Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarkers of Transplant Dysfunction in the Context of Lung Transplantation

DATACOL
Start date: March 17, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Transplant results vary considerably from one organ to another. Lung transplantation has poorer long-term outcomes than other solid organ transplants, with a current median post-transplant survival of 6.0 years. Allograft rejection remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in all organ groups and is the leading cause of death, accounting for more than 40% of deaths beyond the first year after lung transplantation. Each dysfunctions impacts the fate of the graft and therefore the survival of the recipient. Their early and precise diagnosis is therefore a major issue. The identification of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying these different subtypes of dysfunction (transcriptomics, polymorphism of target genes of the immune system or tissue repair, cell phenotyping) is an essential step. It can only be done on the basis of a collection of samples linked to a clinical database allowing to contextualize each sample.
