About this study

Official title: Assessment of Lung Movement With CT in Healthy Subjects and Patients With ILD

The purpose of this study is to determine whether patient with ILD have altered lung compliance on chest CT before they have macroscopic structural changes on CT.

Read the detailed description

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a group of lung disorders in which the lung tissues become inflamed and then damaged. Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is one of the subtypes of ILD which has characteristic histological and CT features. It is well known that microscopic fibrosis occurs in the lungs of IPF patients well before the structural changes of fibrosis become apparent on CT. By combining sophisticated image analysis with CT scans obtained at full inspiration and full expiration, it may be possible to detect earlier changes of IPF than currently possible by looking at macro structural features alone. With the recent development of new therapeutics for IPF, early detection of the disease and improved monitoring of treatment efficacy will become important. Using CT to assess regional lung compliance has the potential to become an easily translated clinical tool.

What is being measured

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

  1. Lung Motion as Assessed by CT

    A computer algorithm will compare the inspiration and expiration CT scans to determine regional lung motion.

    Measured: Study visit 1 of a single visit study

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Lung Motion: Lobar Strain Which is a Ratio

    Lobar strain (S): the volumetric strain of each lobe i [i = Right Upper (RU), Right Lower (RL), Left Lower (LL), and Left Upper (LU)] as the difference in lobe volume between the expanded and contracted states, normalized by the lobe volume in the expanded state

    Measured: Study visit 1 of a single visit study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Chest CT and Pulmonary Function Testing in people with Interstitial Lung Disease, run by University of Missouri-Columbia 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 2 inclusion and 1 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 1 May 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 1 May 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Lung Motion as Assessed by CT (time frame: Study visit 1 of a single visit study). 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 1 May 2020.
