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.
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, …
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 …
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 …
Hyperpolarized 129Xe MR Imaging of Lung Function in Healthy Volunteers and Subjects With Pulmonary Disease
The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate the usefulness of hyperpolarized (HP) 129Xe gas MRI for regional assessment of pulmonary function.
Fibrotic Disease Activity in Cardiopulmonary Disorders Using 18F-Fibroblast Activation Protein Inhibitor (18F-FAPI-74) PET/CT Imaging
Background Injury or diseases of the heart and lung can sometimes cause scar tissue (fibrosis) to build up in those organs. Current imaging scans can see this scar tissue once it has formed, but researchers want to find a way to detect the fibrosis in its earliest stages, while there …
A Study of Mosliciguat in Combination With Inhaled Treprostinil in PH-ILD
This is a Phase 2, open-label, multi-center clinical study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of inhaled mosliciguat in participants with pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD) on a background inhaled treprostinil.
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.
Hypnosis on Breathlessness Mastery in Patients With Persistent Dyspnea
Persistent dyspnea is a debilitating symptom, that is common and difficult to treat. This symptom is found in many different diseases including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), interstitial lung disease (ILD), chronic heart failure (CHF), and metastatic cancer. Dyspnea is associated with many other symptoms, including anxiety, depression, and fatigue …
