Nodule IMmunophenotyping Biomarker for Lung Cancer Early Diagnosis Study
NIMBLE is a prospective study for blood biomarker study of lung nodules alongside analysing data which has been collected routinely as part of patient care. The primary aim of NIMBLE is to assess whether artificial intelligence and machine learning based radiomics approaches can be used to distinguish between benign disease …
Lung Transplant READY CF 2: CARING CF Ancillary RCT
Lung transplant is an option for treating end-stage lung disease in cystic fibrosis (CF). In the United States, more people with CF and low lung function die each year than undergo lung transplant. More than half of people with CF who die without a lung transplant were never referred for …
Evaluation of Membrane Lung Function in High-altitude Regions
Over the last 20 years, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been used to support adult patients with respiratory or cardiac failure who are unlikely to survive conventional treatment methods. ECMO circuit, pump, and oxygenator technology improvements permit safer perfusion for extended periods. The prolonged use of an ECMO circuit increases …
Lung Nodule Detection Using Ultra-long FOV PET/CT
Indeterminate lung nodules (6-15mm) are frequent findings in patients undergoing chest CT scanning, but adequate follow-up imaging is currently not in place to facilitate early detection, diagnosis and decision making regarding treatment. The introduction of long Field-Of-View PET/CT scanners could make a difference in this matter due to the substantial …
Risk Factors and Biomarkers for Post-tuberculosis Lung Damage
This prospective study aims to determine the incidence of Post-tuberculosis lung damage (PTLD), examine trends in the changes in lung function, and investigate the impact of smoking and other factors on respiratory symptoms, lung function, and chest CT findings, which will aid in the development of prognostic and therapeutic strategies …
Dose Attenuated Chemotherapy in Compromised Patients With Lung Cancer
This is an open-label, non-randomized, single-center, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy, toxicity and, tolerability of pre-specified dose attenuated chemotherapy regimens in lung cancer patients with comorbidities.
A Study of Latin Dance for Post- Lung Transplant
The purpose of this research study is to see if participating in Latin dance for 12 sessions can improve wellbeing in several areas including balance, fear of movement, anxiety, depression and spirometry.
Chest Physiotherapy and Lung Function in Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare disease, caused by impairment of the motile cilia. Patients present with chronic upper and lower respiratory tract infections. The therapy is mainly supportive and based on that of cystic fibrosis. Chest physiotherapy is one of the cornerstones of the therapy, however the influence …
Lung Recruitment During Chest Physiotherapy in Mechanically Ventilated Patients
In intensive care, respiratory physiotherapy is an integral part of the daily care of patients under invasive mechanical ventilation. Its goals are to improve the clearance of bronchial secretions to allow for the resolution of atelectasis and alveolar recruitment, thereby enhancing respiratory mechanics and gas exchange. The most widespread technique …
EGFR-mutated Lung Cancer in Randomized Investigator-Initiated Study
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the optimal sequence of EGFR-inhibitors in lung cancer patients with EGFR-positive tumors not amenable for curative treatment. Life quality, adverse effects and tumor response will be evaluated and analyses of obtained blood and tumor samples will be performed to identify molecular profiles …
