FEED-Cystic Fibrosis (FEED-CF)
The goal of this study is to determine the extent to which excess dietary sugars serve as a precipitating factor in glucose intolerance in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF), a population at especially high risk for a unique form of diabetes (CF-related diabetes, CFRD) and with standard-of-care dietary recommendations (high-calorie, …
Continuous Glucose Monitoring and OGTT Screen for Cystic Fibrosis Related Diabetes in Cystic Fibrosis
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) related diabetes (CFRD) is a unique form of diabetes mellitus, different from type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. The diagnosis of CFRD is associated with a decline in pulmonary function, decreased nutritional status, and increased mortality. CFRD is extremely common in people with CF, occurring in …
Electrical Impedance Tomography for Assessment of Pulmonary Hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension is a serious and progressive disease that is difficult to treat and diagnose, mainly because its symptoms are nonspecific and often delay recognition. Early diagnosis is a major challenge. Although several tests may suggest the disease, the definitive diagnosis still requires right heart catheterization, an invasive procedure that …
Understanding Inflammation, InFection and Interventions in Severe Exacerbations of Cystic Fibrosis
The UNIFIED-CF study is an observational study designed to investigate the impacts of treatment given for severe pulmonary exacerbations in people living with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). Exacerbations are episodes when pwCF become more unwell, typically characterised by increased cough, sputum, and breathlessness and treated with a combination of oral and/or …
Physical Impairments in Children With Cystic Fibrosis
It is aimed to reveal impairments regarding urinary incontinence, dyspnea, muscle strength, functional capacity or quality of life in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis compared to healthy children and adolescents.
Identifying the Causes and Risk Factors of Pulmonary Exacerbations in Cystic Fibrosis
The CF-Tracker study is a community surveillance study, designed to understand the causes of exacerbations in people with cystic fibrosis (CF) (pwCF). These are episodes when pwCF become more unwell, typically characterised by increased cough, sputum, and breathlessness, and requiring prolonged courses of oral or intravenous antibiotics. This observational study …
PD-L1 Antibody (TQB2450) Plus Chemotherapy for Previously Untreated Limited- Stage Small-cell Lung Cancer
This is a non-randomized, open-label, single-center, phase II trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of surgery or radiotherapy after PD-L1 inhibitor (TQB2450) and chemotherapy induction therapy followed by maintenance therapy as first-line treatment in patients limited-stage SCLC.
Fluorine-18-AlphaVBeta6-Binding Peptide Positron Emission Tomography in Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This study investigates fluorine-18-AlphaVBeta6-BP (\[18F\]-αvβ6-BP) as a Positron Emission (PET) imaging agent in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases. Investigators hypothesize that \[18F\]-αvβ6-BP PET/Computed Tomography (CT) is a sensitive tool for disease assessment in patients with metastatic NSCLC, including those with brain metastases.
Extracellular Vesicles and Particles (EVP) as Biomarkers of Recurrence in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
The purpose of this study is to find out if fluid rinsed from peoples' airways (bronchial washing samples) during routine surgery to remove (resect) their non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors contains enough vesicles to do testing that may help the researchers learn more about their NSCLC.
The Level of Patient Participation in Lung and Esophageal Cancer Patients Treated With Definitive Radiochemotherapy.
This study aims to assess the level of participation of thoracic cancer patients undergoing definitive radiotherapy and chemotherapy ± immunotherapy in their medical processes and the association between the level of participation and patients' side effects, quality of life, and long-term survival. Additionally, this study will rate the level of …
