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 …
Inhaled Treprostinil in Sarcoidosis Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of inhaled treprostinil in subjects with sarcoidosis-associated interstitial lung disease and pulmonary hypertension.
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 …
Integrating Palliative Care Education in Pulmonary Rehabilitation
Living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or interstitial lung disease (ILD) imposes enormous daily challenges, especially at advanced stages, not just to patients but also to informal caregivers. Their needs are not fully addressed by disease-modifying treatments. A key strategy to improve their well-being is the early integration of …
The Effect of Exercise Training on lncRNA Expression in Rheumatoid Arthritis
The goal of this observational study is to examine the effects of traditional respiratory rehabilitation and respiratory muscle strengthening training added to this program at the genetic level in in patients with rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does respiratory muscle strengthening exercise …
Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Systemic Sclerosis
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a regimen of high-dose immunoablative therapy will demonstrate safety that is consistent or improved with other published regimens in SSc patients, while maintaining a treatment effect.
Ultrasound and Respiratory Physiological Signals in Lung Diseases
The use of lung ultrasound is instrumental in the evaluation of many chest pathologies and its ability to detect pleuro-pulmonary pathology is widely accepted. However, the use of ultrasound to explore the state of the peripheral lung parenchyma, when the organ is still aerated, is a relatively new application. Horizontal …
Pulmonary Hypertension SOLAR
The main goal of this study is to develop a noninvasive signature for pulmonary vascular remodeling in Group 3 PH patients, using hyperpolarized 129Xe magnetic resonance imaging (129Xe MRI). Such a signature may identify Group 3 PH responders to PAH-specific therapies. PAH's unique 129Xe MRI signature has been shown in …
129Xe MRI Cardiopulmonary
The goal of this NIH-sponsored study is to characterize three biomarkers derived from 129Xe gas exchange MRI and to understand how they change in response to interventions.
Feasibility of Semaglutide in Advanced Lung Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether semaglutide, an FDA-approved treatment for diabetes and obesity, is feasible and tolerable in patients with advanced lung disease. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Are patients with advanced lung disease able to tolerate semaglutide therapy? Are we able …
