Health Outcomes of Parents With Cystic Fibrosis-Aim 2
The goal of this observational prospective study is to determine the health impact of parenthood on United States (US) people with CF in the era of CF transmembrane regulator protein (CFTR) modulators. The investigators will collect physical and mental health data to comprehensively evaluate the impact of parenthood in CF …
Respiratory Muscle Structure and Function in Mechanically Ventilated Patients and Long-term Outcomes
Air is normally pumped in and out of the lungs by the muscles that contribute to inhalation and exhalation, called the respiratory muscles. The abdominal muscles help by forcing air out of your lungs during exhalation; whereas the diaphragm, the main muscle used for breathing, contracts to get air into …
Infectious Complications After Esophagectomy
Infectious complications represent the most common postoperative adverse events following esophagectomy for cancer, such as pneumonia (15% of cases). These complications increase immediate risks, lengthen hospital stays, and worsen patient quality of life. The population includes patients admitted to intensive care after esophagectomy for cancer between January 1, 2017, and …
Longitudinal Evaluation of Microbial and Host Signatures During Immunotherapy for Lung Cancer
This study will prospectively collect airway, stool, and blood samples on 80 subjects with lung cancer undergoing immunotherapy. Investigators will evaluate airway/stool microbial signatures associated with local (lower airway) and systemic (blood) immune tone.They will then study whether microbiota and/or host signatures predict subjects' response by longitudinal assessment of the …
Heterogeneity of Dendritic Cells in Colon and Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Prospective study with the use of biological samples. The centers involved are the Thoracic Surgery and Surgery 1 Units of the San Gerardo Hospital in Monza.
CANPOS: Predictive Biomarkers of Tumor Progression in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
CANPOS is a non-interventional study aiming at evaluate at the time of initial surgery the value of new serum markers to predict the occurrence of metastases in patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. This would represent a rational to develop personalized follow-up and prevention strategies
Quantifying 18kDa TSPO Expression in the Lung in Pulmonary Artery Hypertension (PAH)
The aim of this study is to determine whether there is an increase in the TSPO PET signal (measured with the radioligand [11C]PBR28) in the lungs of patients living with PAH relative to age matched controls. If so, TSPO PET may be a useful technique to non-invasively monitor response to …
PET/CT Imaging of Small Cell Lung Cancer Using 89Zr-DFO-SC16.56
The purpose of this study is to look at how safe 89Zr-DFO-SC16.56 is, and how it is processed by the body in people with small cell lung cancer.
Novel Pulmonary Imaging of Lung Structure and Function in E-cigarette Smokers
This is a longitudinal study of the long-term health impact of e-cigarette smoking on the lungs. Participants will be followed over a period of 5 years, and impacts of e-cigarette smoking on the lungs will be measured with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using hyperpolarized xenon-129 gas, pulmonary function tests, exercise …
Cardiopulmonary Monitoring in Lung Cancer Patients Receiving Combined Thoracic Radiotherapy and Immunotherapy
The overall purpose of this study is to evaluate cardiopulmonary toxicity in patients with lung cancer (NSCLC or SCLC) undergoing combined thoracic radiotherapy ± chemotherapy and immunotherapy through timed monitoring and blood sample collection and to identify correlative biomarkers for predicting cardiopulmonary adverse events.
