About this study

Respiratory related diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and neuromuscular diseases remain a major public health issue affecting millions of people worldwide. More than 15 million people are estimated to be diagnosed with COPD in the US alone. In the US, the direct and indirect costs associated with COPD are estimated to be about $50 billion. Clinical studies have shown that by providing ventilation to reduce respiratory insufficiency symptoms such as dyspnea, patients may become more tolerant to exercise and be able to increase their participation in activities of daily living resulting in an overall positive impact in their quality of lives. The Life2000 Ventilation System, with the smallest tubing and comfortable interface solutions, is the only ventilator to simultaneously provide full ventilatory support and enable patients to ambulate.

The Life2000 Ventilation System is an FDA-cleared critical care ventilator (K141943/S003, June 2015) indicated for use for adult patients who require positive pressure ventilation delivered invasively or non-invasively. The device, classified by FDA as a continuous ventilator, can treat both acute and chronic respiratory failure and is suitable for use in home and institutional settings by qualified, trained personnel under the direction of a physician.

The Life2000 Compressor is intended to provide a 50-psi pressure source to the ventilator and is currently in the FDA premarket notification (510 k) clearance process, so its use is considered investigational.

Read the detailed description

This will be a single-center, open-label, pilot study in 10 stable COPD subjects to assess the ventilatory efficacy of the Life2000 Ventilation System, as compared to a control group. Other important secondary endpoints as listed in this document will also be measured and reported. Prospective participants are all current participants in the ongoing CATCH program study. Subjects will be randomized to either continued monitoring alone or monitoring with the use of the Life2000 Ventilation System for a period of six months.

Initial BODE Index (BMI, airway Obstruction, Dyspnea, Exercise intolerance), CO2 (carbon dioxide) measurements, and questionnaires and surveys are captured prior to therapy initiation. Thereafter, subjects will be randomly assigned to the Life2000 Ventilation System or their routine plan of care, as determined previously by the CATCH program, and followed for a period of six months. Both end tidal CO2 readings and the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE) results will be captured at pre-assigned intervals during the study. Monthly phone assessments will be conducted with the subjects to track progress. An additional BODE Index measurement will be taken at Day 90, the study mid-point. At the end of six months, all baseline procedures and questionnaires will be repeated and the subject will be discharged from the study.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Open Ambulatory VentilationExperimentalmonitoring with the use of the Life2000 Open Ventilation System for a period of six months with measures of nutrition, feeling of breathlessness, exercise tolerance, and quality of life. BODE Index B - BMI - BMI stands for body mass index, a calculation made by comparing height vs weight. O - Airway obstruction - Airway obstruction is measured by evaluating FEV1 - the amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in 1 second after a deep breath. D - Dyspnea - Dyspnea refers to the degree of breathlessness someone experiences while living with COPD. E - Exercise tolerance - Exercise testing refers to how well some does on a 6-minute walk test. Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale
Receives: Device: Ventilation

What is being measured

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

  1. BODE Index change

    Score can range from 0 to 10. Higher score is associated with increased survival.

    B - Body Mass Index Values 0 points for a BMI greater than 21 1 point for a BMI less than 21 O - Airway Obstruction Values 0 points for an FEV1 greater than 64%

    1 point for an FEV1 of 50-64% 2 points for an FEV1 of 36-49% 3 points for an FEV1 of less than 36% D - Dyspnea Values 0 points for a dyspnea index of 0-1

    1. point for a dyspnea index of 2
    2. points for a dyspnea index of 3
    3. points for a dyspnea index of 4-5 E - Exercise Tolerance Values

    0 point if able to walk over 349 meters

    1. point if able to walk 250-249 meters
    2. points if able to walk 150-249 meters
    3. points if able to walk 150 meters or less

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. pre vs. on-ventilator days' change

    Secondary endpoints will compare mean pre vs. on-ventilator days' differences in:

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Borg Dyspnea Scale -

    Borg scale a numerical scale for assessing dyspnea, from 0 representing no dyspnea to 10 as maximal dyspnea.

    Measured: prior to start of therapy, upon therapy initiation, and again at Days 1, 30, 90, and 180.

  3. VENTILATOR USAGE

    Average daily ventilator usage (acquired during monthly phone questionnaire)

    Measured: Monthly for six months

  4. PASE

    Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE) - Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE) is a brief (5 minutes) and easily scored survey designed specifically to assess physical activity in epidemiological studies of persons age 65 years and older.The PASE score combines information on leisure, household and occupational activity. High Score is associated with good health.

    Measured: prior to therapy initiation (baseline) and again at Days 30, 90, and 180.

  5. HEALTH CARE COSTS

    Change in healthcare utilization and costs. Examples of healthcare utilization parameters would include emergency room visits and/or hospitalizations due to exacerbations and unscheduled office visits

    Measured: Six months prior to initiation and at 180 days

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 14 inclusion and 0 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 3 Oct 2018. 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?

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?

BODE Index change (time frame: 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 3 Oct 2018.
