The goal of this observational study is to identify early biomarkers that can predict the development of progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) in participants with interstitial lung diseases (ILDs). The participant population includes adults diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), familial pulmonary fibrosis (FPF), other fibrotic ILDs, and interstitial lung abnormalities …
The main goal of this prospective non-interventional exploratory study is to characterize the tumor micro-environment of advanced NSCLC in single-cell resolution, prior to immune checkpoint blockade exposure, and correlate the findings to clinical outcome. This approach will allow to generate new hypotheses regarding mechanism of action of ICI and (primary) …
The aim of this study is to determine whether an intervention with frequent thermotherapy will be able to reduce the amount of colonizing bacteria in the bronchoalveolar lavage sample and eradicate the colonizing bacteria.
The principal objective of the study is to measure parameters of inflammation, oxidative stress, and vascular, respiratory, and peripheral muscle function parameters, and identify parameters indicative of evolving cardiovascular risk (CVR) in COPD patients, using multivariate analysis.
This study collects data on microbiological factors and lung function parameters (e.g. spirometry, body plethysmography, lung-MRI) to assess their interaction on the lung growth and lung development of infants and children with Cystic Fibrosis (CF).
Climate change is characterized by global temperature increase, melting of glaciers and increasing temperature of ocean waters. Increase in greenhouse gases such as nitrogen and carbon dioxide negatively affects air and water quality. Extreme events such as extreme heat waves, floods and hurricanes are events seen with climate change. It …
Healthy adults will be enrolled into this open-label, Phase 1 research study. Participants will spend about 9 nights and 10 days in the clinical research unit (CRU) and the total time in the study will be about 11 weeks. The goal of this clinical trial is to compare how much …
Despite a number of prospective studies already initiated in the past years, the current epidemiology and course of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with connective tissue disease (CTD) is still not well defined, particularly regarding its prevalence, incidence and the management of a broad spectrum …
Prospective observational study to determine if the PVD-B65 risk score for one-year mortality in patients with chronic lung disease and pulmonary hypertension (CLD-PH) can accurately risk stratify these patients and successfully predict one-year mortality from time of pulmonary hypertension diagnosis. PVD-B65 risk score was developed in a retrospective cohort of …
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), , secondary to smoking, is a major public health issue with very high direct and indirect costs. The impact on the health system of undiagnosed patients, up to 70% of patients, is increasingly documented. However, systematic spirometry screening remains controversial among smokers in the absence …
