Emphysema

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and performance of the PneumRx, Inc. Lung Volume Reduction Coil (LVRC) in a population of patients with emphysema. The PneumRx, Inc. LVRC is used as a less invasive alternative to lung volume reduction surgery.

Evaluation of the PneumRx Lung Volume Reduction Coil to Treat Emphysema

Emphysema

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety of the PneumRx Lung Volume Reduction Coil (LVRC) in a population of patients with emphysema. The PneumRx, Inc. LVRC is a used as a less invasive alternative to lung volume reduction surgery. The PneumRx LVRC is designed as an alternative to lung volume reduction surgery, potentially achieving the desired reduction in lung volume limiting the risks associated with major surgery, such as illness or death. This device is deployed through a bronchoscope and requires no incision.

A Safety and Feasibility Study of Re-treating Patients With Severe Emphysema With the RePneu LVRC...

COPDEmphysema

Rationale: The combined data from 3 studies outside the Unites States investigating the Lung Volume Reduction Coil system (RePneu LVRC) showed statistically significant improvements in pulmonary function, exercise capacity and quality of life at both 6-Months and 12-Months post treatment. 24 months post treatment the improved pulmonary function and exercise capacity are slightly decreasing. Retreating the patient with the LVR coil system in other parts of the lung could potentially lead to new improvements in lung function, dyspnea, exercise capacity and quality of life and may reduce the rate of decline. Objective: To investigate the safety and feasibility of re-treating patients with severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) with the RePneu LVRC system.

Belimumab Treatment of Emphysema Patients With Anti-GRP78 Autoantibodies

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary DiseaseEmphysema

This is intended to be an initial "proof-of-concept" study to show feasibility, validate assays and approaches, and explore dosing and safety of belimumab in pulmonary emphysema patients who have clinically relevant (and quantifiable) autoimmune responses. The primary goal is to determine effects of belimumab on levels of autoantibodies against glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP78) among patients with pulmonary emphysema attributable to cigarette smoking. The investigators hypothesize that belimumab treatment will safely reduce circulating levels of autoantibodies that are associated with emphysema, and comorbidities of this lung disease, including atherosclerosis.

Randomized Comparison of Awake Nonresectional Versus Nonawake Resectional Lung Volume Reduction...

Pulmonary Emphysema

Lung volume reduction surgery is effective in improving pulmonary function and quality of life in selected patients with severe emphysema although the morbidity of this surgical procedure is still considerable. Morbidity is mainly addressed to general anesthesia-related adverse effects and surgical trauma deriving from lung resection. Having developed an awake nonresectional lung volume reduction surgery technique, which is performed under sole thoracic epidural anesthesia, we have hypothesized that it could offer satisfactory clinical results and reduced morbidity rate when compared with the conventional surgical procedure.
