About this study

Current diagnostic tools used in interstitial lung disease (ILD) do not meet the challenges set by the complex pathophysiology of this heterogenous group. The investigators therefore aimed to evaluate novel or not widely used diagnostic approaches for the detection and therapeutic monitoring of patients with various ILDs.

Being tested
multiple breath washout tests, impulse oscillometry, body plethysmography
Medical subject headings
Lung Diseases, Interstitial, Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, Sarcoidosis, Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis

What is being measured

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

  1. lung clearance index (LCI) as determined by multiple breath washout

    Measured: 30 minutes

  2. airway resistance and reactance (R5, X5, R-D5-20) as determined by impulse oscillometry

    Measured: 30 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. repeatability of lung clearance index (LCI)

    Measured: 30 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Healthy Controls and Interstitial Lung Disease, run by Universitätsmedizin Mannheim at 1 site in Germany.

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 2 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 24 Mar 2020. 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 Germany. 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?

Contact Frederik Trinkmann, Dr. (+496213833879, frederik.trinkmann@umm.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

lung clearance index (LCI) as determined by multiple breath washout (time frame: 30 minutes). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 Mar 2020.
