Development of a New Method for Steady-State Measurement of NO Lung Diffusing Capacity in Healthy Subjects

A Phase 1 study testing Nitric oxide, Carbon monoxide, Helium in people with Pulmonary Diffusing Capacity, run by University Hospital Tuebingen at 1 site in Germany.

Trial summary

Using a rapidly responding nitric oxide analyzer in a new developed modular lung-function-setup we are going to measure steady-state NO diffusing capacity in 107 healthy subjects (age 6-45 years). The results will be compared to those measured by using carbon monoxide single-breath estimates. Read more about this study

About this study

Using a rapidly responding nitric oxide analyzer in a new developed modular lung-function-setup we are going to measure steady-state NO diffusing capacity in 107 healthy subjects (age 6-45 years). The results will be compared to those measured by using carbon monoxide single-breath estimates. We like to show that the new method is sufficient to measure exactly lung diffusion capacity in this collective.

Being tested
Nitric oxide, Carbon monoxide, Helium

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Nitric oxide, Carbon monoxide, Helium in people with Pulmonary Diffusing Capacity, run by University Hospital Tuebingen at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jun 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Tobias Pantalitschka, MD (+49 70712984711, tobias.pantalitschka@med.uni-tuebingen.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

TLNOss. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jun 2007.
