About this study

Official title: Long-term Oxygen Treatment (LTOT) in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Factors Influencing Survival: Survival Factors in COPD Treated by Long-term Oxygen Therapy

The purpose of this prospective cohort study is to determine factors involved in survival in new COPD patients treated by long-term oxygen therapy.

Background: long-term oxygen therapy is indicated in patients with severe COPD. No studies have been performed in the past 20-25 years to examine the results of early clinical trials. Further studies are necessary to understand the utility of oxygen therapy in severe COPD.

Read the detailed description

long-term oxygen therapy prolongs life in patients with severe COPD and severe resting hypoxemia. The objective of this study is to measure the survival in relation to the level of initial resting hypoxemia, serious co-morbidities, and nutritional status in COPD patients treated by long-term oxygen therapy. After enrollment at the beginning of oxygen therapy, following data will be collected during 3 years. Lung function, blood gas analysis, exercise capacity measured by the 6-Min Walk Distance test (6-MWD), dyspnea scale, BODE index, quality of life, indirect and direct costs will be analyzed every year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Association Nationale pour les Traitements A Domicile, les Innovations et la Recherche at 1 site in France.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 23 Jun 2015. 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 France. 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.

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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Survival in function of initial hypoxemia, body mass index and cardiovascular events (time frame: 3 years). 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 23 Jun 2015.
