The goal of this clinical study is to learn about the diagnostic effectiveness, safety, and influencing factors of transbronchial cryobiopsy（TBLC）in progressive pulmonary fibrosis. The main question it aims to answer are: • Determine the prognosis, health economics, and therapeutic strategy changes of patients with TBLC retrograde malleable pulmonary fibrosis. Participants will be randomly divided into two groups, and received TBLB or TBLC.
This study is open to adults with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who are 40 years and older. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called pirfenidone changes the amount of a medicine called BI 1015550 in the blood. Some people may take more than one medicine at a time. Therefore, it is important to understand how different medicines influence one another. Participants take one dose of BI 1015550 as a tablet. Participants then take one tablet of pirfenidone 3 times a day for one week. The dose is then increased to 2 tablets 3 times a day for the second week. In the third week the dose is increased further to 3 tablets 3 times a day. Participants then take another dose of BI 1015550 as a tablet. Participants are in the study for a little over 1 month. During this time, they visit the study site 15 times. Two of the visits include overnight stays at the study site. The study staff also contacts the participants by phone. During the visits, the doctors collect information about participants' health and take blood samples from the participants. They compare the amount of pirfenidone and BI 1015550 in the blood. Doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This study is open to people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF). They can only take part if they have completed treatment in a previous study with a medicine called BI 1015550 (study 1305-0014 or 1305-0023). The goal of this study is to find out how well people with pulmonary fibrosis tolerate longterm treatment with BI 1015550. The study also tests whether BI 1015550 improves lung function and prolongs the time until symptoms get worse, participants need to go to the hospital, or die. Every participant takes BI 1015550 as tablets for up to 1 year and 10 months. The participants may also continue their regular treatment for pulmonary fibrosis during the study. Participants visit their doctors regularly. During these visits, the doctors collect information on any health problems of the participants. Participants also regularly do lung function tests.
This study is a prospective observational study for subjects with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or non-IPF interstitial lung diseases (ILD). The purpose of this study is to compare whether imaging patterns from high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) at baseline can predict worsening. Single Time point Prediction (STP) is a score derived from an artificial intelligenc/ machine learning (AI/ML) using the radiomic features from a HRCT scan that quantifies the imaging patterns of short-term predictive worsening.
The aim of this study is to validate the six minute Stepper Test (6MST) and the 5-repetition chair lift test (5STS) as measures of exercise tolerance and muscle power, respectively, in patients with chronic respiratory disease. As the reproducibility of the tests has been studied and validated in previous studies, the objective is to investigate the validity of the 6MST and 5STS in comparison with their respective gold standards.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare REBUILD-SM (a purpose-built smartphone app and self-management package) with standard care in people with interstitial lung disease (ILD). The main question it aims to answer is: • Does REBUILD-SM improve health-related quality of life, symptoms, anxiety, self-efficacy and physical activity for people with ILD? Participants in the intervention group will work through the self-management package with support from a healthcare professional via phone or Zoom. They will also enter deidentified health data into the RE-BUILD smartphone app to track their progress over time. Participants in the control group will use a reduced functionality version of the smartphone app only. Researchers will compare both groups to see if there is any difference in health-related quality of life, symptoms, anxiety, self-efficacy and level of physical activity.
This trial was performed in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of different doses of TDI01 Suspension, compared with control, for the treatment of patients with IPF.
This study capitalizes on the emerging technology of 19F MRI, using conventional 'thermally' polarized perfluorinated gas (perfluoropropane, or PFP) mixed with oxygen and studied with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to visualize ventilation. This technique has not been studied in children. Children and adolescents (6-17 years old) with cystic fibrosis (CF) who have normal spirometry will undergo 19F MRI with the inhalation of an inert contrast gas to study ventilation. Comparisons will be made to a cohort of healthy children (6-17 years old) who will perform the same measures. The primary outcome measure is the feasibility of conducting these studies in the pediatric population. Parallel performance of multiple breath nitrogen washout (MBW) and spirometry will be used to compare the sensitivity of these outcomes to the presence of mild lung disease in these children. Finally, the investigators will compare data obtained during standard breath holds with a novel "free-breathing" technique that will eliminate the need for breath holds during MRI acquisition.
The Londrina Activities of Daily Living Protocol was first developed for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease patients and was found to be valid and reliable, but there is no validity and reliability study of the Londrina Activities of Daily Living Protocol in IPF patients. The purpose of the study is to Examine the Validity and Reliability of the Londrina Activities of Daily Living Protocol in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) patients.
