Genetic Variation in IgG in Alpha 1 Antitrypsin Deficiency
The goal of this study is to learn whether patients who have a genetic mutation in the genes that cause alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency also have genetic variation in nearby genes that can increase risk for reduced immune function and respiratory infections. To investigate this hypothesis, we will compare immune …
Lung and Bone Marrow Transplantation for Lung and Bone Marrow Failure
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a lung transplantation prior to bone marrow transplantation (BMT) would allow for restoration of pulmonary function prior to BMT, allowing to proceed to BMT, to restore hematologic function.
In Vivo Lung Perfusion (IVLP) for Colorectal Cancer Metastatic to Lung
This study is investigating a new technique for delivering chemotherapy directly into the lungs at the time of surgery. Delivering chemotherapy directly to the lungs could potentially kill any microscopic cancer cells that are present in the lungs at the time of surgery, while sparing other major organs in the …
Lung Surgery With Enhanced Recovery VS. Lung Surgery Without Enhanced Recovery
Objective: The adoption of Enhanced Recovery Surgery programs in lung resection is relatively recent with limited outcome data. This study aimed to determine the impact of an Enhanced Recovery Surgery pathway on short- term and long- term results in patients undergoing lung resection for primary lung cancer. Methods: A Randomized …
Reducing Breathlessness With Dronabinol in COPD Patients
This clinical trial examines whether Dronabinol, which contains the synthetic psychoactive compound tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), can alleviate severe breathlessness in patients with severe and very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Liquid Biopsy-Based Pre-Screening to Streamline LDCT Lung Cancer Screening in High-Risk Individuals
This study evaluates the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of using a blood-based liquid biopsy assay as a pre-screening tool before low-dose CT (LDCT) for lung cancer screening. By identifying individuals unlikely to have lung cancer, this approach aims to reduce unnecessary LDCT scans, radiation exposure, and healthcare costs, while improving early …
Erector Spinae Block for Thoracic Surgery
The aim of this study is to determine if erector spinae injections with bolus infusions with local anesthetic decrease postsurgical pain and opioid consumption in patients undergoing pulmonary resection surgery.
Incentive Spirometry to Improve Outcomes in Lung Cancer Patients Undergoing Concurrent Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using an incentive spirometer can reduce lung problems in people with advanced lung cancer who are receiving chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Does using an incentive spirometer lower the chances of developing …
Multidimensional Approach for COPD and High Complexity
The MACH Study trial will examine the impact on high complexity COPD patients of a multidimensional approach (moderate-intensity physical activity program and clinic-therapeutic re-evaluation of the participants)
The Development of an Integrated Physical Activity and Mental Health Intervention for Veterans With COPD, Emotion Distress, and Low Physical Activity
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is prevalent and debilitating chronic disease in Veterans. COPD is highly co-morbid with depression and anxiety conferring greater morbidity and mortality risk. Physical activity is a modifiable behavior that can improve COPD outcomes. However, to date, interventions targeting physical activity have not addressed the high …
