88 Clinical Trials for COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)
Depemokimab is being developed as a treatment for individuals with moderate to severe COPD. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of depemokimab as an add-on medicine in participants with uncontrolled moderate to severe COPD with type 2 inflammation.
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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and to explore the efficacy of astegolimab in participants with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who have completed the 52-week placebo-controlled treatment period in parent studies GB43311 or GB44332.
This study will determine the functional status of the nasal immune environment with LAIV exposure in COPD persons with frequent exacerbations (defined as individuals with two or more episodes of worsening in COPD symptoms requiring treatment with antibiotics and/or steroids in the prior 12 months) and COPD persons without frequent exacerbations to determine acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD)-associated dysfunction in a) cytokines and immune effector cells of the nasal mucosa and b) viral replication. The investigators hypothesize that: 1) COPD frequent exacerbators, compared to COPD infrequent exacerbators, will demonstrate altered mucosal immune responses to LAIV exposure, and 2) COPD frequent exacerbators, compared to COPD infrequent exacerbators, will demonstrate increased markers of influenza viral replication after LAIV exposure.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is often caused by cigarette smoking, but genetic predisposition also influences COPD susceptibility. The purpose of this study is to identify genetic factors that predispose some individuals to develop COPD.
Purpose and objective: This project aims to evaluate photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) quantitative accuracy using COPDGene subjects. The goal is to establish acquisition protocols for PCCT scans with proper post-processing (e.g., reconstruction parameters and harmonization techniques) that enable reproducible measurements of emphysema metrics (e.g., Perc15, LAA-950, HU accuracy) and airways (Pi10, WA%) in the lungs. Study activities and population group: The study will recruit subjects from a current study at Duke (COPDGene Phase 4, Pro00113442). Here are the aims: * The research team will request consent from participants to acquire PCCT scans at their Phase 4 COPDGene visit. Scans will be performed using a PCCT-specific protocol. * Reconstruct the PCCT images with multiple post-acquisition parameter settings. Apply harmonization techniques that are recently developed by the investigators of this study. Data analysis: * Identify the reconstruction and harmonization conditions that enable reproducible measurements of emphysema metrics (perc15, LAA-950, HU accuracy) and airways (Pi10, WA%), when compared to the counterpart EICT scans. * Demonstrate the non-inferiority and potentially improved capabilities of PCCT scans in cross-sectional and longitudinal studies. Risk/safety issues: The participants are asked to get an additional CT scan with a PCCT scanner at their COPDGene Phase 4 visit. This additional CT scan will be done using an inspiratory chest protocol with a total of 3 mGy (\~1.5 mSv) radiation dose. This is roughly equivalent of 6 month of background radiation. Women who are pregnant will not have a chest CT scan done until they are confirmed to be not pregnant.
The COPD in LCS Registry will identify and characterize individuals who have functional or radiographic evidence of COPD and are receiving lung cancer screening. Clinical information will be obtained from study participants including symptom burden, lung cancer risk, spirometry, imaging characteristics, and peripheral blood eosinophils.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is highly prevalent globally, with considerable morbidity and mortality associated. In the US, it is the 4th leading cause of death, as well as contributing to significant costs on healthcare utilization including hospitalization. Population-based screening for COPD has not been recommended by the US Preventative Services Task Force (USPSTF). However, LDCT screening for lung cancer in patients aged 50- 80 with ≥ 20 pack year smoking has been shown to improve survival. COPD is highly prevalent within LCS programs, with estimated rates of obstructive lung function of up to 59% and evidence of emphysema on CT scan in around 70%.

A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel Group, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Tezepelumab in Adults with Moderate to Very Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
The purpose of this study is to test the uptake, effectiveness, and patient-caregiver-provider experience of a crucial treatment not provided in rural areas: pulmonary rehabilitation.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The purpose of this study is to obtain biologic materials from the blood, airways and/or urine of normal individuals and individuals with lung disease. The normal are used to establish a set of normal ranges for various parameters. These provide control information when compared to individuals with various pulmonary diseases, and will help in understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of various lung diseases. The underlying hypothesis is that the pathologic morphological changes in the airway epithelium must be preceded by changes in the gene expression pattern of the airway epithelium and potentially in macrophages.
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Automatic Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure (Auto-EPAP) feature versus manual expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP) in the Vivo 45 LS Ventilator.
The PROACT LUNG study is a prospective multi-center observational study to validate a blood-based test for the early detection of lung cancer by collecting blood samples from high-risk participants who will undergo a routine, standard-of-care screening Low-Dose Computed Tomography (LDCT).
This is a single-arm, prospective, multi-center, Registry study to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of the Spiration Valve System (SVS) for the treatment of severe emphysema in a post-market setting.
A biomarker cohort study design is proposed to study whether specific airway microbiota alterations are associated with pulmonary Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) disease. In a cohort of 200 subjects suspected of having pulmonary NTM disease, the investigators will evaluate the airway microbiome using an aliquot of the induced sputum and upper airway samples. Since induced sputum may reflect different regions of the upper/lower airways, the investigators will evaluate the upper and lower airway microbiome in a subgroup (case-control group) of patients using samples obtained through upper airway sampling and bronchoscopy, respectively.
This is a cross sectional case controlled study to assess lung microbiome and inflammation in smokers with and without Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Investigators will look at active bacterial metabolic pathways in the lower airways using metagenomic and metabolomic approaches an assess relationships among microbiome, metagenome, metabolome and host immune responses in COPD and controls. Investigators believe COPD cases will have higher prevalence of pneumotype supraglottic predominant taxa (SPT) than matched controls.
COPD is the third leading cause of combined morbidity, disability, and mortality in the United States and is often associated with cognitive impairment. The goal of the proposed project is to examine novel pulmonary and vascular physiological mechanisms that contribute to structural brain abnormalities and cognitive dysfunction early in the course of COPD. The project will generate information to ultimately inform the development of interventions to delay or prevent cognitive dysfunction.
The purpose of this cross-sectional, observational study is to evaluate the site and mechanism(s) for expiratory airflow limitation in chronic, treated, current or former smokers (\>15 pack years) with COPD, Emphysema, and Asthma-COPD Overlap with mild to severe expiratory airflow limitation. Treatment may include short and long acting inhaled beta2agonists, short and long acting inhaled muscarinic receptor antagonists, inhaled and or oral corticosteroid, oral antibiotic, supplemental oxygen, and PDE type 4 inhibitor. In some cases, the patient may have had a history of asthma preceding the development of COPD (Asthma COPD Overlap).
This is a Phase 2, multicenter study in adult participants with an acute COPD exacerbation and type 2 inflammation
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of verekitug (UPB-101) in participants with moderate-to-severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), an inflammatory lung disease.
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.
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).
