The purpose of this study to find out whether giving BIO 300 in combination with thoracic radiation therapy is effective in preventing pneumonitis in people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and interstitial lung disease (ILD).
The aim of this study was to conduct a prospective randomized controlled trial to design simulator and in vitro lung standardized training, to perform a learning curve evaluation of transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) operating physicians, and to assess the role of standardized training in TBLC.
This study aims to better understand the role of immune system cells in lung diseases such as lung cancer, sarcoidosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The investigators are studying how these immune cells can sometimes help the body defend itself, but in other cases may contribute to cancer growth …
The understanding of haemostasis and inflammation cross-talk has gained considerable knowledge during the past decade in the field of arterial and venous thrombosis. Complex and delicately balanced interaction between coagulation and inflammation involve all cellular and humoral components. Elements of the coagulation system such as activated thrombin, fibrinogen or factor …
The RMD-mILDer trial is a home monitoring strategy trial aiming to improve management of interstitial lung disease related to rheumatic diseases applying eHealth technology. It is planned as a 2 arm 54 week multi-centre randomised controlled trial to assess outcome of home monitoring with bi-weekly serial forced vital capacity- and …
The investigators plan to conduct a study to find out if giving portable oxygen therapy (during physical activity) to patients with interstitial lung disease will improve quality of life, exercise tolerance, shortness of breath, and blood vessel function. Oxygen will be provided for a period of 8 weeks. Additionally, the …
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if N-acetylcysteine (NAC) works to prevent post-tuberculosis lung disease (PTLD) in patients with severe pulmonary impairment. It also aims to assess the safety of NAC. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Does NAC improve lung function (FEV1%) over …
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a global burden. Treatment options have improved in recent years, pulmonary rehabilitation plays a key role. Oxygen therapy is recommended in patients with a low saturation at rest, but no clear guidance is given for patients who desaturate during exercise. The effect of ambulatory …
The OPTIMIZE-ILD-2 trial is a prospective, randomized, open-label clinical trial designed to evaluate the impact of a coordinated follow-up pathway on patients with established interstitial lung disease (ILD). In routine clinical practice, follow-up workflows for ILD are frequently fragmented, requiring multiple hospital visits for pulmonary function tests, laboratory analysis, treatment …
Connective tissue disease (CTD), an autoimmune and inflammatory disease, usually accompanied by lung interstitial/alveolar inflammation and fibrosis (so called interstitial lung disease, ILD). The prevalence and mortality rate of CTD-ILD increase in recent several years. Although the use of corticosteroids and strong immunosuppressants can improve ILD in some patients with …
