Active clinical trials for "Bronchiolitis Obliterans"

Bronchiolitis Obliterative Syndrome (BOS) is the primary noninfectious pulmonary complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and usually carries a poor prognosis. It occurs in about 10% of children underwent HSCT. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) published guidelines and criteria for the diagnosis of BOS. BOS defined by spirometric criteria according to modified NIH consensus guidelines: FEV1 < 75% predicted and a greater than 10% decline from pretransplant baseline, and FEV1/FVC <0.7 (FCV: Forced Vital Capacity). Nevertheless Cheng and al. indicate that the magnitude of FEV1 decline before diagnosis exceeded the diagnostic requirement of a greater than 10% decline compared with baseline FEV. Moreover, the decline in FEV1 prior to BOS diagnosis appeared to occur within 6 months for those patients. Recent studies suggest that any intervention should be targeted during the FEV1 decline, and before the diagnosis of BOS. For this, inhalated treatment are used: Bergeron et al. reported improvements in symptoms as well in FEV1 one month followed treatment including formoterol and budesonide in a prospective trial including adults (12% increase of FEV1 for 62% adults). Williams and al. in another prospective adult's cohort, showed that the association between fluticasone, montelukast and azythromycin was associated with stable lung function, reduced systemic corticosteroids, and improved quality of life at 3 months for adults with BOS. In our national French prospective cohort which include 300 children with HSCT from 2014 to 2017 (RESPPEDHEM Programme Hospitalier de Recherche Clinique 2012), 35% of children presented a decline of FEV1≥ 10% without BOS criteria (FEV1 < 75% and FEV1/FVC <0.7). Among them, some received combination of corticoids and long acting beta agonists for 6 months. Children with this type of inhalated treatment improved their FEV1 to 88.1% predicted while children without any treatment have a FEV1 at 80.7% predicted. Our hypothesis is that association of Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol can be used as a treatment of the decline of FEV1 for children and so prevent BOS.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare ARINA-1 plus Standard of Care vs Standard of Care alone. The main question it aims to answer are: Evaluate the effectiveness of ARINA-1 in preventing bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) progression in participants with a bilateral lung transplant To evaluate the effectiveness of ARINA-1 on improving quality of life decline and preventing or delaying the use of augmented immunosuppression in participants with pre-BOS relative to SOC. Participants will have clinic visits at screening, randomization (day 1) and weeks 4, 12, 18, and 24. After week 24, participants will have clinic visits at weeks 32, 40, and 48. Participants will also have a telehealth visit on day 2 and phone calls to assess adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and review patient education will occur during weeks 5, 8, 36, and 44.

Although patients with bronchiectasis tend to have non reversible obstructive patterns on pulmonary function tests (PFTs), reversible obstruction is not uncommon. While bronchodilator response (BDR) is a main characteristic of asthma, the pathophysiology causing this phenomenon in bronchiectasis patients is less clear. The goal of this clinical trial is to assess BDR in patients with bronchiectasis. The main aims of this study: To evaluate the role of bronchodilators in BDR testing of patients with bronchiectasis. Characterize and compare BDR between different subgroups of patients with bronchiectasis, and compared to patients without bronchiectasis (healthy controls). Identify demographics and other clinical variables associated with positive BDR Participants will be taking a series of three spirometry tests: After the first spirometry testing, patients will be randomly assigned to receive bronchodilators as per bronchodilator response protocol (Salbutamol, 100 mcg, 4 puffs via spacer) or four puffs of placebo. After a waiting time of 15 minutes, spirometry will be repeated. Following the second spirometry testing those who received salbutamol will now receive placebo and those receiving placebo will receive Salbutamol. After a second period of 15 minutes, a third series of spirometry will be recorded.

The research is being conducted to develop new imaging methods that are sufficiently sensitive to allow for early diagnosis of BOS, a chronic allograft rejection affecting 50-60% of lung transplanted recipients who survive 5 years after transplant. Although lung transplantation has evolved into an effective therapeutic option for a large number of pediatric patients with end-stage pulmonary disease, long-term survival after lung transplantation is far worse than after the transplantation of other solid organs. This research may improve patient outcomes through earlier diagnosis of changes leading to BOS by obtaining image guided research biopsies of transplanted lung. Biopsies may be used for future research of ex vivo biomarkers of BOS and in the development of treatments through future clinical trials.

Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS) is a major complication of Hematopoietic Stem cell Transplantation (HSCT) occurring in the context of chronic GVHD and associated with a poor prognosis. The diagnosis of BOS is based on functional (Pulmonary Functional Tests) and morphological criteria (chest CT-scan). Early diagnosis of BOS represents an unmet need and would facilitate early therapeutic interventions. Lung MRI has been recently developed with new sequences facilitating morphological and functional lung analysis in various inflammatory contexts. The goal of this study is to compare the morphological performances of chest CT-scan and MRI

The objective of the trial is to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of L-CsA plus Standard of Care (SoC) in the treatment of BOS in single (SLT) and double lung transplant (DLT) recipients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of itacitinib in participants with post-lung transplant bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS).

The objective of the trial is to assess efficacy and safety of add-on aerosolized liposomal cyclosporine A (L-CsA) to Standard of Care (SoC) therapy as compared to SoC therapy alone in the treatment of Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) in single lung transplant recipients.

The primary aims of this study is to determine the efficacy and tolerability of Extracorporeal Photopheresis (ECP) for the treatment of either Refractory Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS) patients (258 at cessation of enrollment April 7, 2022) or Newly Diagnosed (22 as of enrollment Hold February 2022) Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome patients after lung transplantation. In compliance with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' (CMS) Coverage with Evidence Development (CED) decision, the study will collect specified demographic, comorbidity, treatment, and outcome data exclusively for Medicare beneficiaries who are treated with ECP for either refractory or New BOS.

The objective of the trial is to assess efficacy and safety of add-on aerosolized liposomal cyclosporine A (L-CsA) to Standard of Care (SoC) therapy as compared to SoC therapy alone in the treatment of Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) in double lung transplant recipients.
