The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai will conduct a randomized controlled trial of a self-management support intervention for predominantly minoritized and low-income adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The trial will focus on comprehensive screening and targeted management of barriers to COPD control, incorporating home-based pulmonary rehabilitation and oral steroid and antibiotic prescribing for pre-emptive treatment of COPD exacerbations. The research team will compare this intervention with an attention control group to evaluate the effects on medication adherence, COPD symptoms, inhaler technique, physical activity and exercise capacity at 6 months, and at 12 months to examine sustainability of treatment effects. The research team will also examine hospitalizations and emergency department visits at 12 months. The study will recruit 300 participants from the Mount Sinai Health System in Manhattan, Queens, and Brooklyn, ensuring diverse representation. Health coaches from the VNS Health will deliver the intervention, guided by a detailed training manual. Weekly conference calls will address logistical and protocol-related issues.
The investigators will conduct a Type I hybrid effectiveness-implementation study to test an integrated telehealth intervention among 400 overweight and obese patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). The investigators will include eligible participants receiving primary care at one of five Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical centers and their community-based outpatient clinics. The investigators will randomize patients in a 1:1 ratio to the multi-component intervention or "enhanced" usual care, stratifying by age (≥65 vs. \< 65) and site. Participants randomized to the intervention will receive an integrated, telehealth-delivered intervention composed of a self-directed lifestyle program and supervised pulmonary rehabilitation. At the end of 3 months, the investigators will offer to enter a recommendation for weight management medications on behalf of eligible intervention participants. In the post-core period (months 4-12), participants will continue to have as-needed access to the lifestyle coach. For participants randomized to the "enhanced" usual care group, study staff will prompt the patient's primary care provider to refer them to existing weight loss management and pulmonary rehabilitation programs. Follow-up will occur at virtual visits at 3 and 12 months. The primary effectiveness outcome at 1-year is quality of life measured by the SF-12 Physical Component Summary Score. Secondary effectiveness outcomes will include other measures of quality of life (including sleep related impairment), sleep disturbance, disease severity (COPD exacerbations and respiratory event index for OSA), depression, social support, weight loss and cardiovascular risk. In addition to assessing effectiveness, investigators will also conduct a concurrent implementation process evaluation using the RE-AIM framework.
This is a multi-center randomized, sham-controlled clinical trial to determine the effectiveness of an air cleaner intervention aimed at improving indoor air quality on reducing COPD exacerbation risk and improving quality of life, functional status, rescue medication use.
This study will evaluate the effect of triple ICS/LAMA/LABA therapy with BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 μg on cardiopulmonary outcomes relative to LAMA/LABA therapy with GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 μg in a population with COPD and elevated cardiopulmonary risk.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare responses to bronchodilator treatment delivered by three different aerosol delivery methods in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The main question it aims to answer is whether there are differences in lung ventilation following treatment with each of the three methods as measured using hyperpolarized Xe 129 with MRI. Participants will: Receive a standard dose of albuterol delivered using each of 3 aerosol delivery devices. In total, participants will receive three treatments separated by at least 1 week each. Following each treatment, participants will have inhale an MRI contrast agent called hyperpolarized Xe 129 and will have images of their lungs taken with an MRI. Researchers will compare the different lung images taken after each treatment to see if there are differences in the distribution of air in the lungs (known as ventilation).
The primary objective of the study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of ascending doses of GSK3862995B following single dose in healthy participants and repeat doses in participants with Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
This study will investigate the effect of Budesonide, Glycopyrronium, and Formoterol Fumarate (BGF) metered dose inhaler (MDI) compared with Placebo MDI, and Budesonide and Formoterol Fumarate (BFF) MDI on isotime inspiratory capacity (IC) and exercise endurance time.

This study gathers information for the development of a COPD care pathway for patients with cancer that reduces the treatment burden of patients, implements critical components of COPD care, and overcomes common barriers to COPD care in the community oncology clinic.
The investigators will study whether the drug tadalafil improves shortness of breath in 126 Veterans with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and high blood pressure in the lungs. The investigators will also assess whether tadalafil improves quality of life, home daily physical activity, exercise endurance, the frequency of acute flares of COPD, blood pressure in the lungs, and lung function. Veterans who enroll in the trial will be allocated by chance to either active tadalafil or an inactive identical capsule (placebo). Neither the Veteran nor the investigator will know whether the Veteran is taking tadalafil or placebo. Veterans will be followed closely in clinic or by telephone at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 months, with attention to side effects and safety. At 1,3, and 6 months the investigators will repeat the questionnaires and testing of blood pressures in the lung and lung function. The investigators anticipate that the results of this study will determine whether tadalafil improves shortness of breath when added to usual medications for COPD.
The goal of this fully-remote randomized controlled trial is to test the efficacy of Mindful Steps in facilitating physical activity compared to usual standard of care among 136 patients with COPD and/or HF. The main question it aims to answer is can this intervention promote physical activity as measured by daily step counts in sedentary patients with COPD and/or HF. Participants will be randomized (1:1 ratio) to receive either the Mindful Steps intervention or usual care for 12 months, with both arms receiving a Walking for Health education booklet.

Sensorum Health (Sensorum) is conducting a pilot study to determine if Sensorum's proprietary passive sensor network can be used to identify signals of early health decompensation in subjects prior to a hospitalization for chronic disease exacerbation or other ambulatory care sensitive conditions. Successful early detection would provide a window of opportunity to intervene outside of the acute setting in future interventional studies.
Subjects who completed either OBERON or TITANIA will be offered the opportunity to consent for this Multicentre, Double-blind, Randomised, Placebo controlled, Parallel Group, Phase 3, extension study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Tozorakimab in adult participants with symptomatic COPD.
Background: Over 26 million Americans have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which is the third leading cause of death in the United States. Unfortunately, few patients receive proven therapies and many receive therapies known to have safer alternatives. One major reason is the competing demands of primary care providers (PCPs) who manage 90% of patients with COPD. The research team has developed a population management approach where pulmonary specialists provide evidence-based recommendations as an E-consult with unsigned orders to PCPs. PCPs can then quickly review the E-consult and sign, modify, or discontinue these orders. The investigators found this intervention led to marked improvements in the quality-of-care delivered and patients' COPD-related quality-of-life. While promising, this approach is limited by a paucity of pulmonary providers nationwide. Clinical pharmacists are 20 times more prevalent as pulmonary specialists and some regions of VA (VISN 17, COPD Cares) have assigned clinical pharmacists a role in the management of patients with COPD. However, the relative effectiveness of pharmacist-led management is yet to be established. Study Description: This study tests population management for COPD provided by pharmacists relative to pulmonary specialists. The investigators are conducting a cluster randomized clinical trial at five medical centers and their associated clinics within the Department of Veterans Affair. Study staff will randomize PCPs to population management conducted by either pulmonary specialists or pharmacists. Within PCPs' panels, study staff will use VA electronic health record to identify patients with evidence of COPD. Pulmonologists and pharmacists will review these patients and provide guideline-based recommendations to PCPs. Pulmonary specialists and pharmacists will then deliver evidence-based recommendations through E-consults coupled with unsigned orders for primary care providers to sign, modify or decline. Outcomes: Investigators will assess if proactive, population management recommendations by clinical pharmacists and pulmonary specialists lead to non-inferior outcomes for patients with COPD. The primary outcome will be a composite endpoint of COPD exacerbation, pneumonia, hospitalization, or death six month after intervention. Secondary outcomes will include 1) the proportion of guideline recommended therapies received by patients, 2) COPD-related quality-of-life as measured by the Clinical COPD Questionnaire, and 3) PCP acceptance of recommendations, 4) each individual outcome within the primary composite endpoint above, and 5) patient- and caregiver-incurred costs.
Researchers are looking for ways to treat pulmonary hypertension (PH) caused by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The goal of the study is to learn if people who take frespaciguat can walk farther in 6 minutes at Week 24 compared to people who take placebo.
The study objective is to determine whether an ICS added for 4 weeks to a baseline treatment with a Long-Acting Beta-adrenergic Agonist (LABA) and Long-Acting Muscarinic Antagonist (LAMA) combination improves pulmonary vascular endothelial function as assessed by the vasodilator response to inhaled albuterol (endothelium-dependent vasodilation) in stable COPD patients treated with a LABA/LAMA without an ICS for at least one month.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of astegolimab compared with placebo in participants with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who are former or current smokers and have a history of frequent exacerbations.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), one of the leading causes of death in the US, disproportionately affects low socioeconomic communities. While few interventions effectively modify the course of COPD and improve outcomes, pulmonary rehabilitation is the one notable exception. However, implementation of this resource-intensive program in real-life settings, and in particular, for underserved communities, has proven to be challenging. Safety-net centers that serve primarily under-insured populations lack financial resources to provide pulmonary rehabilitation. The 10-week COPD Wellness and Plus+ Program directly addresses this gap, and yet, programs like these do not automatically lead to improved outcomes, which leads to the implementation of a Health Advocates program to address participant's social needs and barriers to healthcare.
This prospective, observational study is designed to investigate clinical outcomes and collect patient feedback on the use of Wellinks, an integrated virtual chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) management solution, for patients recently discharged from the hospital due to an acute exacerbation of their COPD.

A randomized controlled trial of a food delivery dietary intervention targeting increased omega-3 intake to determine whether dietary modifications can improve Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) outcomes and attenuate the adverse effects of particulate matter on respiratory health. Investigators believe that study results will comprehensively address the impact of an evidence-based nutrition intervention on COPD health and provide a framework for dietary intervention within other chronic diseases disproportionately impacting susceptible, low-income populations.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the fourth leading cause of death in the United States. Current treatments for COPD focus on inhaler therapies that do not address manifestations of the disease on other organ systems. Platelets, which are small blood cells that typically help with clotting, are also involved in generalized inflammation and dysfunctionality of immune cells when these cells become activated. Activated platelets have long been known to play a role in the development of cardiovascular disease. However, there is recent evidence that activated platelets may be involved in worse respiratory symptoms in COPD independent of cardiovascular disease. Individuals with COPD who are taking aspirin, which is an antiplatelet agent that blocks activation of platelets, have been shown to have improved respiratory symptoms, fewer COPD flares, and lower mortality. The investigators' ultimate goal is to study whether aspirin use improves respiratory symptoms independent of cardiovascular disease. The investigators are conducting the current pilot trial to determine the optimal dose of aspirin that blocks platelet activation in this population and investigate whether there are any blood or urine tests that can help with understanding response to therapy. The results will inform the design of a larger trial investigating clinical outcomes. The investigators hypothesize that daily low-dose aspirin will not be sufficient to adequately suppress platelet activation and that an aspirin dose of at least 162mg daily will be necessary.
