Trial summary

It is well known that some chronic respiratory pathologies such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis, due to the pathology itself and the therapies implemented (per-os or inhaled corticosteroids). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Opportunistic Screening for Vertebral Osteoporotic Fractures on Chest CT Scan Evaluation of Patients With Interstitial Lung Disease : COLIBRI Based Retrospective Study

It is well known that some chronic respiratory pathologies such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis, due to the pathology itself and the therapies implemented (per-os or inhaled corticosteroids). Osteoporosis leads to an increased risk of fragility fracture, with an increased morbidity and mortality associated with severe fractures such as vertebral fractures. Also, osteoporotic vertebral fractures often occur at the thoracolumbar hinge, resulting in worsening of the thoracic kyphosis. However, to the best of our knowledge, the prevalence of osteoporotic vertebral fractures measured by CT scan in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) is not known. For these patients who already have impaired respiratory function, the appearance of vertebral fractures could impact their management and worsen their prognosis (additional restrictive syndrome, difficulties in analgesics management because of respiratory contraindications, difficulties in wearing a corset, etc...). In this context, it appears interesting to define the prevalence of osteoporosis and osteoporotic vertebral fractures at the thoracic spine and the thoraco-lumbar hinge in a population of patients followed for ILD. So, the main objective of this study is to describe the prevalence of vertebral osteoporotic fractures in an overall cohort of patients with ILD.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Chest CT Scan examinationOther

    Double examination of chest CT scan on sagittal section after multiplanar reconstruction

What is being measured

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

  1. Presence or absence of vertebral fracture in the global cohort

    a vertebral fracture is considered if a decrease in height of the vertebral plateau by more than 20 % on an examination of chest CT scan on sagittal section after multiplanar reconstruction is observed.

    Measured: 6 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Presence or absence of vertebral fracture in subgroups

    a vertebral fracture is considered if a decrease in height of the vertebral plateau by more than 20 % on an examination of chest CT scan on sagittal section after multiplanar reconstruction is observed.

    Measured: 6 years

  2. To compare bone mineral density in Hounsfield Unit of patients with or without at least one vertebral fracture.

    Bone mineral density in hounsfield unit is evaluated by measuring trabecular attenuation in an ovoid region of interest on axial T12 section

    Measured: 6 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoporosis and Interstitial Lung Disease, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice at 1 site in France.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Apr 2025. 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 France. 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?

Presence or absence of vertebral fracture in the global cohort (time frame: 6 years). 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 Apr 2025.
