About this study

Official title: Study of Bronchoalveolar Lung Remodeling in Subjects From 60 Years Free of Progressive Lung Disease: Structure-function Analysis

The aim of the study is to investigate the relationship between aging and morphological changes in the lung. 120 consecutive healthy volunteers over 60 years will be enrolled for this trial.

Read the detailed description

Chest multidetector CT without injection and spirometry data will be obtained from a multicentric sample of individuals between 60 and 95 years of ageExclusion criteria were current smoking, history of smoking within the past 10 years, any known chronic or acute pulmonary disease. Individuals treated with Amiodarone, Bleomycin or methotrexate were excludedOutcome

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing EFR and TDM in people with Aging, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 1 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Nov 2021. 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.

The study was stopped early. 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?

Bronchial wall thickness (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01230879, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 30 Nov 2021.
