Mycophenolate Mofetil in Systemic Sclerosis With Subclinical Interstitial Lung Disease
The goal of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility of a larger study on the efficacy of mycophenolate mofetil in people diagnosed with systemic sclerosis with mild lung involvement. Participants will be recruited over 12 months at 3 academic centers and assigned randomly to receive either mycophenolate mofetil …
Nebulized Human Amniotic Fluid in Patients With Interstitial Lung Disease
This is a Phase I, pilot clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and exploratory efficacy of nebulized diluted amniotic fluid, Matrix (HAF-Matrix) in adults with interstitial lung disease (ILD). ILDs are progressive fibrotic disorders characterized by aberrant wound-healing responses, chronic inflammation, and dysregulated fibroblast activation, ultimately leading to impaired …
Reducing Respiratory Symptoms of Pulmonary Irradiation in Interstitial Lung Disease
In this double-blind phase II randomized controlled trial, patients with lung cancer or ≤2 oligometastatic pulmonary lesions and a concomitant diagnosis of ILD who are planned for radical Radiation Therapy (RT) will be randomized using a 2 x 2 factorial design to oral N-acetylcysteine (NAC) versus placebo, and also to …
Exploring How Viral Infections Affect People With Chronic Lung Disease
Many people with chronic lung disease have disease flare-ups. It was previously believed that these were mainly caused by bacteria but recent evidence suggests that viruses could be an important trigger. This study will recruit volunteers with chronic lung disease and take samples both when well (at baseline) and during …
Emapalumab MDA5 Rapidly Progressive Interstitial Lung Disease (RP-ILD) Study
This is a proof of concept study to determine if Emapalumab appears effective for the treatment of anti-MDA5 antibody positive rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (MDA5 RP-ILD). Emapalumab is a medication that is currently used for a severe problem with the immune system, called macrophage activation syndrome, and this disease …
Cognitive Screening in Lung Cancer Patients
This study aims to investigate the occurrence of cancer and adjuvant therapy-related cognitive impairment in patients with both NSCLC and SCLC. The primary endpoint measure will be the presence of cognitive impairment during the first year after enrollment through the administration of a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment.
Exercise Performance on Ambient Air vs. Low-Flow Liquid Oxygen Therapy in Chronic Lung Diseases
The investigators aim to study the effect of liquid oxygen therapy (4l/min, nasal) )in Swiss residents with pulmonary vascular diseases (PVD) defined as pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH).
Clinical Utility of LIBS Multi-Element Imaging and the IFF Algorithm in Chronic Lung Diseases
PNEUMO-LIBS is a multicenter, non-interventional observational study designed to evaluate whether multi-element tissue imaging by Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), combined with an artificial intelligence-based analysis tool called Interesting Features Finder (IFF), may help physicians better understand the possible causes of chronic lung diseases. The study focuses on adult patients with …
Breathlessness Perceptions Within Respiratory Diseases
Breathlessness is a complex symptom that results in poor quality of life, increased hospitalisations and increased mortality. Breathlessness is influenced by physiological, psychological and functional factors but these are poorly explored. There are also unexplored phenomenon's such as breathing pattern. Therefore, this study aims to understand the influences of physiology, …
Effects of Oxygen Supplementation During the 6-Minute Walk Test in Chronic Respiratory Failure or Exertional Hypoxemia
The aim of this multicenter crossover trial is to describe the effect of adding a therapeutic dose of exertional oxygen therapy, in terms of exercise performance, gas exchange, heart rate, symptoms perception and subjective easiness of performance, in a cohort of subjects hospitalized in specialized pulmonary rehabilitation centers with a …
