研究概览
简要总结
Clinical response, as defined by improvement in asthma quality of life, to bronchial thermoplasty in patients with severe refractory asthma can be predicted through the use of clinical, physiologic, biologic and imaging markers.
详细描述
Primary Aim To assess the relationship between baseline clinical, physiologic, biologic and imaging markers and response to bronchial thermoplasty, defined by improvement in asthma quality of life, in patients with severe refractory asthma.
Secondary Aims
- To assess the relationship between baseline clinical, physiologic, biologic and imaging markers and response to bronchial thermoplasty, defined by reduction in severe exacerbations or healthcare utilization, in patients with severe refractory asthma.
- To evaluate if baseline clinical, physiologic, biologic and imaging markers are related to safety of bronchial thermoplasty in patients with severe refractory asthma.
- To evaluate and validate statistical models that predict response to bronchial thermoplasty in patients with severe refractory asthma.

入选标准
- •Males or females age 18 or greater and less than 65
- •Subject has asthma and is taking regular maintenance medication for past 12 months that includes:
- •Inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) at a dosage greater than 1000μg beclomethasone per day or equivalent, AND long acting ß2-agonist (LABA) at a dosage of ≥100μg per day Salmeterol or equivalent.
- •Other asthma medications such as leukotriene modifiers, or anti-IgE, are acceptable (Subjects on Xolair® must have been on Xolair for greater than 1 year).
- •Asthma confirmed by: (a) b-agonist reversibility of FEV1 ≥ 12 % following 360mcg albuterol OR (b) methacholine FEV1 PC20 ≤ 8 mg/ml if not receiving an ICS or ≤ 16 mg/ml if receiving an ICS.
- •FEV1 ≥ 50% predicted pre-bronchodilator.
- •Asthma symptoms on at least two days or one night per week over the last 2 weeks.
- •Subject is a non-smoker for 1 year or greater (if former smoker, less than 10 pack years total smoking history).
- •Ability to undergo bronchoscopy in the opinion of the investigator.
- •Ability and willingness to provide informed consent.
排除标准
- •Asthma exacerbation (ED visit, hospitalization, course of increased systemic steroids, or urgent health care visit for asthma) during the prior four weeks.
- •Subject has 3 or more hospitalizations for exacerbations of asthma in the previous year or 1 or more ICU admission for asthma in the previous year.
- •Chronic oral steroid therapy greater than 30 mg per day
- •Subject has other respiratory diseases including interstitial lung disease, emphysema, cystic fibrosis, vocal cord dysfunction, mechanical upper airway obstruction, untreated obstructive sleep apnea, Churg-Strauss syndrome, cardiac dysfunction, and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (total IgE of >1000 Units/mL with positive specific IgE to aspergillus and evidence of central bronchiectasis) that in the opinion of the investigator would prevent participation in the trial or put the participant at risk by participation.
- •Subject has segmental atelectasis, lobar consolidation, significant or unstable pulmonary infiltrate, or pneumothorax, confirmed on x-ray.
- •Subject has clinically significant cardiovascular disease, including myocardial infarction, angina, cardiac dysrhythmia, conduction defect, cardiomyopathy, aortic aneurysm, or stroke.
- •Subject has uncontrolled hypertension (>200mm Hg systolic or >100mm Hg diastolic pressure).
- •Subject uses an internal or external pacemaker or cardiac defibrillator.
- •Chronic diseases (other than asthma) that in the opinion of the investigator would prevent participation in the trial or put the participant at risk by participation, e.g. chronic diseases of the lung (other than asthma), heart, liver, kidney, or nervous system, or immunodeficiency
- •History of cigarette smoking with > 10 pack years total
- •Use of investigative drugs or intervention trials in the 30 days prior to enrollment or during the duration of the study
- •Any condition or compliance issue which in the opinion of the investigator might interfere with participation in the study
