About this study

Official title: The Clinical Effectiveness of PSG Versus Limited Respiratory Polygraphy During NIV Set up in COPD-OSA Overlap Syndrome: A Randomised Controlled Trial

The study aims to compare 2 different strategies used to setup non-invasive ventilation in patients with OCPD-OSA overlap.

Read the detailed description

With limited comparative data to support the different strategies, there is substantial variation across Europe and the United States in the methods used by clinicians to set up home non-invasive ventilation (NIV) for patients with chronic respiratory failure as a consequence of sleep disordered breathing. Indeed with few data to support the practice, many centres employ full montage polysomnography, which is not only a significant physical burden to the patient but also a financial burden to the healthcare provider in terms of the facilities required, staff training and equipment.

The investigators propose to undertake a randomised controlled trial to compare the clinical effectiveness, in terms of the change in daytime arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) at 3 months, of limited respiratory polygraphy and full polysomnography to set up NIV in patients with COPD-OSA overlap. Secondary outcome measures at 3 months will include overnight control of gas exchange, subjective sleep quality, health related quality of life and ventilator adherence. COPD-OSA overlap are a patient group that have a rising prevalence with limited data currently available detailing NIV set up, which wholly supports the rationale of using this increasingly important group as a target population for this trial.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Full polysomnography and Oximetry-capnography in people with COPD and OSA, run by Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust.

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 4 inclusion and 6 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 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

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?

PaCO2 (Arterial blood gas analysis) (time frame: 3 months). 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 NCT02444806, 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 12 Jul 2016.
