Telerehabilitation in Patients With Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Diseases
The aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of different exercise programs applied to 3 groups randomly formed in patients with fibrosing interstitial lung disease (FILD). Secondary purpose: To determine the feasibility and effectiveness of telerehabilitation in FILD cases.
Effects of Tofacitinib vs Methotrexate on Rheumatoid Arthritis Interstitial Lung Disease
Pulmonary abnormalities are present in up to 60% of patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and up to 10% of the patients will develop clinical interstitial lung disease (ILD). Recent data indicate that inhibition of Janus kinase is beneficial for this extra-articular manifestation. Our goal is to determine whether tofacitinib …
Powered Assist Hip Exoskeleton to Improve Ambulation in Severe Lung Disease
Chronic respiratory disease (CRD) is among the most prevalent and growing diseases worldwide with disabling consequences. Many with a compromised respiratory system cannot support the metabolic energy demands of walking causing them to walk slowly and stop often. Those with CRD could receive substantial benefit from a powered wearable exoskeleton …
Hyperpolarized MRI of Lung Transplants
Chronic complications such as chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) remain the leading cause of death and the primary limitation to long-term survival for lung transplant recipients. CT is currently use for longitudinal assessment in the pediatric population with lung transplant. However, it uses radiation that has been related to increase …
Osimertinib In EGFR Mutant Lung Cancer
This research study is studying a targeted therapy as a possible treatment for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) with an EGFR mutation. The names of the study drug involved in this study is: Osimertinib (Tagrisso)
Noninvasive Early Detection of Lung Allograft Dysfunction After Lung Transplantation With Multiple Breath Washout Test
Chronic rejection, more commonly called bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), is the leading cause of death beyond the first year post lung transplantation. The diagnosis of BOS is typically made by clinical, physiological, and radiographic parameters. Early detection would be desirable since it allows treatment modification to stop or delay the …
Oligo-Fucoidan Decrease Lung Radiation Damage
Fucoidan is FDA approved and in common use for treatment of angina. These studies will advance that work to human use. Successful mitigation of lung radiation damage and heart toxicity will improve the quality of life in veterans and non-veterans who are treated for lung cancer by radiation, and may …
Bronchoscopic Cryo-Immunotherapy of Lung Cancer
This is a safety and feasibility study of bronchoscopic cryo-immunotherapy (BCI) of peripheral lung tumors in advanced non-small cell lung cancer for the intention of inducing anti-tumor immune responses. The sample size for this study will be 15 patients. Pre- and post- BCI peripheral blood samples will be analyzed to …
CIETAI and Sequential Radiotherapy in Squamous Lung Cancer
Central-type lung cancer refers to lung malignancies originating from the segmental bronchi and above. The most common tissue type is squamous cell carcinoma. Patients often present with cough, hemoptysis, hoarseness and also some critical conditions including superior vena caval obstruction syndrome. Therefore, effective treatment should be implemented as early as …
Prolonged Air Leakage After Major Lung Resection
The goal of this prospective randomized controlled trial is to investigate the clinical effects of autologous blood pleurodesis in the treatment of pulmonary air leaks on the first postoperative day following VATS pulmonary resections. Patients will through web-based randomization be randomly assigned into intrapleural instillation of autologous blood (intervention) or …
