About this study

Official title: Screening Evaluation for Studies of COPD

This research is being done to study mechanisms of progression of COPD and to develop treatments for it. The investigators are doing the present study to identify people age 40 and older with mild to moderate COPD who will qualify for such studies to include in a database. The study will include establishing a screening evaluation or characterization of the following two studies:

  • Emphysema Progression in COPD- Losartan's Effects on Airway Parameters - NA_00009980
  • Sleep-Related Physiology and Inflammation in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease - NA_00001771
Read the detailed description

This is a program to recruit and screen participants for clinical trials or more detailed observational studies of COPD. There are no interventions or comparative results to be published from this study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Establish a screening evaluation or characterization

    We are doing the present study to identify people to include in a database who are age 40 and older with mild to moderate COPD and who will qualify for studies of COPD. The study will include establishing a screening evaluation or characterization for the following three studies.

    • Emphysema Progression in COPD- Losartan's Effects on Airway Parameters - NA_00009980
    • Sleep-Related Physiology and Inflammation in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease - NA_00001771
    • Genetic Epidemiology of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease - NA_00011524

    Measured: Determined during screening clinical visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Johns Hopkins University at 1 site in United States.

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 8 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2018. 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 United States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Establish a screening evaluation or characterization (time frame: Determined during screening clinical visit). 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 12 Mar 2018.
