NCT06600126
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand how a Coping Skills Training program can reduce depression and anxiety in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), particularly those who face health disparities, including those with low income, different racial backgrounds, or those living in rural areas. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How does the Coping Skills Training program help reduce stress and anxiety in patients? * What causes variations in the effectiveness of the Coping Skills Training program? * What are the barriers and facilitators to the uptake of the Coping Skills Training program? Researchers will compare a 12-week Coping Skills Training program with a COPD Education program to see if the training leads to better health outcomes for participants. Participants will: * Take part in weekly 30-minute sessions for 12 weeks if assigned to the Coping Skills Training group. * Take part in weekly 10-minute sessions for 12 weeks if assigned to the COPD Education group. * Complete surveys before, during, and after the intervention. * Patients and caregivers, including those who chose not to enroll, as well as clinicians, will be invited to participate in interviews to share their perspectives.
NCT01969344
SPIROMICS I, SPIROMICS II, and SPIROMICS III are longitudinal observational studies of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) cohort. SPIROMICS I had two primary aims: (1) To find groups of patients with COPD who share certain characteristics; (2) To find new ways of measuring whether or not COPD is getting worse and to provide new ways of testing whether a new treatment is working. SPIROMICS II had three primary aims: (1) To define the natural history of "smokers with symptoms despite preserved spirometry" and characterize the airway mucus abnormalities underlying this condition; (2) To determine the radiographic precursor lesion(s) for emphysema and identify the molecular phenotypes underlying airway disease and emphysema; (3) To advance understanding of the biology of COPD exacerbations through analysis of predisposing baseline phenotypes, exacerbation triggers and host inflammatory response. SPIROMICS III has three primary aims: (1) To identify the main forms of smoking-related airway disease that are caused by pathological airway mucus, their biological underpinnings, and their physiological significance; (2) To identify longitudinal trajectories in established and novel CT measures of emphysema, test how they predict COPD progression, and define their underlying biology; (3) To identify environmental and social determinants of health that impact disease severity and progression and their influence on lung structure, biology, and health disparities in COPD.
NCT05612035
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.
NCT04053634
Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a benralizumab in patients with moderate to very severe COPD with a history of frequent COPD exacerbations and elevated peripheral blood eosinophils (≥300/μL). Eligible patients must have a history of ≥2 moderate and/or severe COPD exacerbations in the previous year despite receiving triple (ICS/LABA/LAMA) background therapy for at least 3 months and ICS-based dual inhaled treatment for the remainder of the year. Eligible patients must also have an elevated blood eosinophil count. The treatment period will be of variable duration and will continue until the last patient has the opportunity to complete a minimum of 56 weeks, at which point all patients will complete the study. The primary endpoint will be analyzed at Week 56.

NCT05611125
In prior work, this research team developed a telehealth primary care model (TIPC), designed in close partnership with patients and clinicians to address a widespread increase in telehealth use during the COVID-19 pandemic. Researchers will test the TIPC intervention to assess palliative care (PC) support for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) among a population of urban-dwelling, African American (AA) persons over the course of 15 months. The aims of this study are to 1) evaluate patient, caregiver, and clinical team perspectives of feasibility and acceptability of the TIPC model with urban-dwelling AAs with advanced COPD, and 2) explore the impact of TIPC intervention on knowledge and completion of advanced care planning (ACP) and on hospice and healthcare utilization patterns in the target population, as well as on additional quality of life (QOL) endpoints, and compare these between individuals participating in the intervention group and control group.
NCT02760329
The NOVEL Observational longiTudinal studY (NOVELTY) is an observational study of obstructive lung disease and is a multi-country, multi-centre, prospective, longitudinal cohort study which will recruit patients with a diagnosis, or suspected diagnosis, of asthma and/or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Patients will undergo clinical assessments and receive standard medical care as determined by their treating physician. Patients enrolled in NOVELTY will be followed up yearly by their treating physician for a total duration of three years. In addition, patients will be followed up remotely every 3 months. The NOVELTY study will collect data currently lacking to allow for multinational data collection to fill regional/local gaps and improve comparability across regions.

NCT05937854
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.

NCT01558817
Outcomes after in-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are very poor, particularly in patients with oxygen dependent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or metastatic cancer. Recent work found that in-hospital CPR is being performed more often before death with unchanging survival and that fewer CPR survivors are being discharged home, thus suggesting that CPR is increasingly performed without benefit and that the burden of this ineffective treatment is increasing. Unlike other medical procedures, CPR has become the default provided to all patients even those with tremendously poor outcomes. It is time to change the paradigm of CPR. Through comparing an innovative "informed assent" approach toward in-hospital CPR (informing patients that their underlying chronic illness makes outcomes of CPR so poor that CPR is not performed while allowing them to disagree) versus usual care in a group of chronically ill patients with reduced life expectancy, the investigators aspire to demonstrate that CPR delivery can be reduced. And in addition that DNR status increases, while preserving patient quality of life and decreasing the burden of this ineffective treatment to both patients and families. If effective, this informed assent intervention has the potential to revolutionize how the investigators discuss CPR with the investigators chronically ill patients.
NCT02984124
This multicenter RCT of 200 hospitalized patients and their family members evaluates an "informed assent" approach to discussing cardiopulmonary resuscitation, compared to usual care, in older seriously ill hospitalized patients with severe life-limiting illness or severe functional impairment.
