Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 90 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Participants having experienced episode of breathlessness during the past 12 months triggering interaction with a health care professional.

Who may be able to join

  • Aged 18-90 years.
  • Has experienced episode of breathlessness during the past 12 months triggering interaction with a health care professional. Self-reported breathlessness using any of the following words to describe symptoms will qualify as a presentation of breathlessness regardless of aetiology or severity of symptoms: shortness of breath, tight chest, trouble breathing, breathlessness, dyspnoeic, breathless, asthmatic, suffocating, wheezing, fighting for breath or any equivalent word. Breathlessness does not have to be the primary presenting symptom.
  • Deemed clinically sufficiently stable to participate according to health care practitioner.

Who cannot join

  • Inability to understand written local language at a year 5 level.
  • Not being confident in use of digital technology (smartphone and/or tablet). This will become evident through an inability to use the system.
  • Inability to enter required study sample data due to diminished consciousness and/or physical or mental capacity regardless of whether this is associated with the breathlessness event.
  • Received an investigational medical product in the context of a Clinical Trial during the 28 days prior to first probe administration.

Mild BreathlessnessBreathlessness not requiring any medical intervention within 24 hours other than a dose change in the individuals pre-established pharmacological treatment plan
Receives: Other: Biomarker tests for participant profiling

What is being measured

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

  1. Physician assessed severity of breathlessness

    Breathlessness requiring admission or supplementary oxygen, breathlessness requiring intervention < 24 hours, Breathlessness requiring medical intervention within 24 hours without meeting the criteria for severe breathlessness, Breathlessness not requiring any medical intervention within 24 hours other than a dose change in the individuals pre-established pharmacological treatment plan

    Measured: 1 day (One-time assessment during a participant reported episode of breathlessness)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breathlessness and COPD, run by Sanome.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 2022. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Physician assessed severity of breathlessness (time frame: 1 day (One-time assessment during a participant reported episode of breathlessness)). 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 NCT05304494, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 13 May 2022.
