Phase 2 open label extension study to evaluate INBRX-101 in adults with AATD emphysema
Prospective, 2-arm, randomised (2:1), multicentre, open-label clinical trial in patients with severe emphysema. The intervention arm will be treated with Bronchoscopic lung volume reduction in severe emphysema using thermoablation.The interventional treatment (bronchoscopic lung volume reduction) is compared with the usual conservative standard therapy (GOLD guidelines).
Some sparse scientific data support the hypothesis that otherwise unexplained emphysema may be associated with FLNA mutation. This prospective, monocentric, cross-sectional study aimed to describe the frequency of emphysema in patients carrying an FLNA mutation. Patients with FLNA mutations who accept the study will benefit from a chest physician's clinical examination, respiratory function tests and a chest scan. The primary endpoint is to describe emphysema's frequency in patients carrying FLNA mutation. The other objectives are to describe emphysema's features in these patients and to describe their lung function abnormalities. The final goal is to confirm the association between unexplained emphysema and FLNA mutation.
This study is designed to prospectively document changes in FEV1 and health-related quality of life 12 months following sequential segmental treatment with InterVapor® in patients with heterogeneous emphysema with upper lobe predominance. For validity of the study, the results will be compared to patients that receive optimal medical therapy.
The purpose of this study is evaluating the safety of endobronchial transplantation of autologous mesenchymal stem cells derived bone marrow in patients with emphysema.
This study will test that hypothesis that endoscopic lung volume reduction therapy performed using emphysematous lung sealant treatment can be improved using smaller doses delivered to more a larger number of treatment sites.
COPD is a progressive pulmonary disease that is characterized by an inflammatory process in the airways and the lungs which leads to progressive airway obstruction. The inflammation is associated with tissue loss and remodelling. The investigators hypothesized that doxycycline reduces neutrophilic airway inflammation in patients with COPD. Therefore the investigators will conduct a randomized trial of doxycycline in 30 patients.
