Bronchoscopic Lung Volume Reduction in Management of Localized Emphysema
Emphysema is a progressive phenotype of chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), poses a significant global health burden characterized by irreversible lung parenchymal destruction and airspace enlargement. In recent years, bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) has considerable interest as a minimally invasive approach to reducing hyperinflation and improving lung function in …
Combined Zephyr Valve System With Inter-lobar Fissure Completion for Lung Volume Reduction in Emphysema
The purpose of this protocol is to perform a pilot prospective randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the potential role of lung fissure completion strategy (experimental intervention) in addition to endobronchial valve (EBV) placement (representing "standard-of-care") in select patients with severe COPD/emphysema and with evidence for <95% fissure completion between …
Inter-lobar Fissure Completion in Patients With Failed Bronchoscopic Lung Volume Reduction
The purpose of this protocol is to perform a pilot prospective controlled clinical trial to evaluate the potential role of lung fissure completion with pleural adhesiolysis strategy (experimental intervention) in severe emphysema/COPD patients with failed bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) via the use of endobronchial valves (EBVs) therapy. In select …
Airway Bypass - Safety and Feasibility Study
The objective of this study is to evaluate its safety and feasibility of the Airway Bypass Stent System in patients with severe emphysema. The study will collect clinical data through 12 months to assess procedural and device safety.
Clinical-ultrasonographic Assessment of Pulmonary Emphysema
The goal of this clinical trial is to identify correlations among data deriving from lung ultrasonographic (LUS) and tomographic evaluations of patients with panlobular or paraseptal emphysema, to improve the comprehension of acoustic information derived from ultrasound evaluation. The main question it aims to answer is: what are the correlations …
Supporting Evidence-based Responses to Emotional Needs in Emphysema
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand how a Coping Skills Training program can reduce depression and anxiety in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), particularly those who face health disparities, including those with low income, different racial backgrounds, or those living in rural areas. The main …
Surgical Compared to Bronchoscopic Lung Volume Reduction in Patients With Severe Emphysema
The investigators plan to perform a randomized controlled trial that compares bilateral lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS) with bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) using endobronchial valves in terms of efficacy and patient safety.
An Evaluation of the AeriSeal System for CONVERTing Collateral Ventilation Status in Patients With Severe Emphysema
This is a prospective, open-label, multi-center, single-arm study planned to enroll 200 subjects with heterogeneous emphysema and collateral ventilation (CV) in the target lobe. Subjects will undergo instillation of AeriSeal Foam in the target lobe and subsequent assessment of CV status using Chartis Pulmonary Assessment System. Subjects with CVstatus will …
BENTO - Bronchoscopic Lung Volume Reduction in Severe Emphysema Using Thermoablation
Prospective, 2-arm, randomised (2:1), multicentre, open-label clinical trial in patients with severe emphysema. The intervention arm will be treated with Bronchoscopic lung volume reduction in severe emphysema using thermoablation.The interventional treatment (bronchoscopic lung volume reduction) is compared with the usual conservative standard therapy (GOLD guidelines).
Doxycycline for Emphysema in People Living With HIV (The DEPTH Trial)
The purpose of this study is to determine if doxycycline will reduce progression of emphysema in people living with HIV. The secondary objectives are to examine the effects of doxycycline on change in quantity of emphysema, six minute walk distance, patient reported outcomes, ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 …
