The Cardiovascular Consequences of Sleep Apnea Plus COPD (Overlap Syndrome)
Major progress has been made in the area of cardiovascular disease, but we believe that further progress will involve mechanistically addressing underlying respiratory causes including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The most common cause of death in COPD is cardiovascular, although mechanisms are unknown. OSA …
Association of Psychological Distress in Patients With Lung Cancer
Psychological distress is a multi-factorial experience of a psychological, social, spiritual, and/or physical nature that may interfere with one's ability to cope effectively with cancer, physical symptoms and treatment. Psychological distress is common and affects the efficacy and prognosis of patients with lung cancer. The systematic anti-tumor therapy may effectively …
Plasma Metabolomics as a Tool to Distinguish PET-positive Malignant From PET-positive Benign Nodules
Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is an important technique in lung cancer staging, where almost no lung lesion goes undetected. However, PET-CT often fails to discriminate between malignant and non-malignant PET-positive solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) with a specificity of only 23%. 40-50% of those patients are advised to repeat their …
Investigating Health Related Quality of Life in Patients With Chronic Respiratory Failure
To determine the quality of life of patients living with chronic respiratory failure and the impact interventions have on it.
Breathe Easier With Tadalafil Therapy for Dyspnea in COPD-PH
The investigators will study whether the drug tadalafil improves shortness of breath in 126 Veterans with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and high blood pressure in the lungs. The investigators will also assess whether tadalafil improves quality of life, home daily physical activity, exercise endurance, the frequency of acute flares …
Biology of Young Lung Cancer Study: The YOUNG LUNG Study
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about lung cancer (NSCLC or SCLC) diagnosed in adults at ages 45 or younger.
DREAM: Double Lung Transplant REgistry Aimed for Lung-limited Malignancies
This is a prospective observational registration trial for patients who undergo lung transplantation for the treatment of the select groups of medically refractory cancers affecting the lungs alone without extrapulmonary nodal and distant metastasis.
Monitoring of the End-tidal Carbon Dioxide (EtCO2) as a Severity Criterion in COPD Exacerbations
Although we know that these numbers are underestimated, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common chronic respiratory disease that affects between 8 and 12% of adults. According to a 2020 WHO report, it is the third most common cause of mortality in developed countries. This disease is punctuated by …
Effects of Bright-light Exposure Combined With Specific Exercise Training (BEST) Program in Patients With Cancer
This study plans to investigate the effectiveness of six-week light exposure combined with an exercise training program on improving sleep-wake rhythm, physical and mental symptoms, quality of life, one-year recurrence rate, and one-year survival rate of patients with lung and esophageal cancer.
AVENTINE-1: Study of AVZO-1418 as a Single Agent and in Combination Therapy in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors (AVZO-1418-1001)
This study, the first clinical trial of AVZO-1418, aims to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, maximum tolerated dose, and antitumor activity of AVZO-1418 when administered intravenously as a monotherapy and potentially in combination therapy to patients with locally advanced or metastatic epithelial solid tumors.
