The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if bronchoscopic lung volume reduction with endobronchial thermal liquid ablation (ETLA) works to treat severe emphysema in terms of feasibility and safety. Participants will: Have up to two ETLA procedures Complete five clinic follow-up visits and two virtual follow-up visits.
This is a prospective, randomized, parallel group, sham-controlled, multicenter clinical trial. The objective is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of pulsed electric field ablation system manufactured by Suzhou Hengruihongyuan Medical Technology Co., Ltd. for the treatment of the symptoms of chronic bronchitis in adult COPD patients with moderate to …
Chronic lung diseases affect one in five Canadians, causing symptoms such as cough, breathlessness, and wheeze. Despite advancements in medical care, these conditions not only impact individuals and their close circles but also present substantial clinical and economic challenges at a national level. This grant is dedicated to addressing three …
A study taking place at multiple sites in the United States, Europe and Brazil to evaluate how well a new therapy for severe COPD/emphysema works, and how safe it is.
This prospective randomized controlled trial evaluates whether a specialized "COPD flare-up clinic service" improves outcomes in patients following an acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). Patients presenting to the emergency department with AECOPD and discharged or hospitalized will be randomized 1:1 to either structured follow-up in a dedicated …
This study is open to children and adolescents aged 2 to 17 years with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Nerandomilast has just been approved in some countries to help adults with a lung condition called idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The purpose of this study is to understand how nerandomilast is tolerated and …
This study plans to learn about heart function among individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In particular, the investigators want to understand the different patterns of right ventricular response during rest and moderate- vs high-intensity exercise. By identifying patterns of right ventricular dysfunction, this study will help identify better …
The AYLo study (AutoimmunitY and Loss of y - Investigating the Role of Hematopoietic Mutations and Mosaic Mutation in the Y Chromosome in Autoimmune Rheumatologic Diseases) aims to systematically investigate hematopoietic mutations, such as hematopoietic (mosaic) loss of the Y chromosome (mLOY), focusing on their underlying causes, pathophysiological significance, patterns …
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the new asymmetric nasal high flow interface with the conventional high flow nasal cannula in patients with COPD exacerbation. The main questions the study aims to answer are: • Does the use of the asymmetric interface lead to: A greater decrease …
Spirometry is now the gold standard technique for assessing lung function in humans. From the shape of a flow-volume curve measured while the patient, trained by the practitioner, performs forced breaths, the forced vital capacity (FVC) and the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) can be deduced and the …
