About this study

Hypothesis: Low dose aspirin does not change exhaled inflammatory breath mediators in normal subjects.

Read the detailed description

Aim:

  1. To study the effect of low dose aspirin on exhaled breath inflammatory mediators
  2. To compare the change to that seen in diseased states such as asthma and Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM)

We will interview healthy volunteers to confirm that they do not have any major underlying medical conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, stroke and bleeding disorders. We will collect breath condensate before and after two weeks of low dose over the counter enteric coated aspirin 81 mg/day therapy. Side effects are extremely rare at this dose, but include bleeding, heart burn and allergic reaction.

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?

Change in Exhaled Inflammatory Mediator Levels (time frame: baseline and 6 months). 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 25 Sep 2015.
