Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Prospective Outcomes Registry (IPF-PRO) and Interstitial Lung Disease Prospective Outcomes (ILD-PRO) Registry

Date Added
May 13th, 2014
PRO Number
Pro00033910
Researcher
Timothy Whelan

List of Studies


Keywords
Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)
Summary

The purpose of this research registry is to better understand the natural history of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and current practice patterns. The IPF-PRO registry will be used to collect data and biological samples that will support future research studies by identifying disease biomarkers for IPF. Through these studies, researchers hope to find new ways to detect, treat, and maybe prevent or cure health problems. Some of these studies may be about how genes affect health and disease, or how a person's genes affect their response to a treatment. Some of these studies may lead to new products, such as drugs or tests for diseases. We are asking you to let us collect and store some of your blood and health information so they might be used in these kinds of future studies.

If you are newly diagnosed with IPF and are eligible for participation in IPF-PRO, you will be asked to sign a consent form to become enrolled if you agree to be in this registry. At enrollment a member of MUSC research staff will collect information from you and about your medical history and medical care, as well as information about the types of health insurance (public or private) that you have. As part of your participation in this registry, you will be required to sign a medical release form giving permission for your medical records to be reviewed for the purposes of data collection for the registry. This is an observational registry which means you will not receive any investigational treatments or investigational drugs, and only minimally invasive procedures will be performed (blood draws) at scheduled clinic visits. In addition to the face to face visits for self-administered participant reported questionnaires and blood collection, at roughly 6-month intervals, sites will review the participant's medical records. Your disease management and treatment decisions will be determined by you and your health care professional. Subjects will be followed until the last enrolled subject has been followed for 3 years up to a maximum of 5 years.

Multiple Patient Program for Lamprene® (clofazimine) for the treatment of Non-Tuberculous Mycobacterial (NTM) Infections

Date Added

PRO Number
Pro00065207
Researcher
Patrick Flume

List of Studies


Keywords
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM)
Summary

Lamprene®/Clofazimine, is a product of the pharmaceutical company named Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation. Lamprene®/Clofazimine is approved by FDA (the U.S Food and Drug Administration) for the treatment of leprosy. It is being tested in non-Novartis clinical studies for drug resistant tuberculosis and non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM).

If you have been diagnosed with NTM, then your doctor may decide that this infection can be treated with Lamprene®/Clofazimine. This medicine is provided to you in an expanded access program. This means that this medicine is not registered for the treatment of NTM, but it can be used in special situations where there are no other possible treatments. For example, this may be because you have a type of Mycobacterial infection that is resistant or failed to respond optimally to other drugs, or because you have had side effects that prevent the use of other drugs.

Sarcoidosis
Summary

This is a trial for cardiac sarcoidosis in patients seen during routine clinical care who have not been clinically suspected to have cardiac sarcoidosis according to conventional criteria. The addition of echocardiogram and ambulatory ECG to usual clinical follow-up will be compared. This is a multicenter study, coordinated by the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research. Up to 12 sites in the US and Europe will participate. Each site will enroll 50 consecutive consenting individuals to a total of 600 enrolled subjects in a randomized trial of additional screening versus usual care.

Pulmonary Hypertension Association Registry (PHAR)

Researcher
Rahul Argula

List of Studies


Keywords
Pulmonary Hypertension
Summary

The PHAR is a multicenter, prospective registry of newly evaluated patients at PHCCs in the United States who have either PAH or CTEPH. Baseline information will be collected at the time of initial evaluation at the PHCC (within six months of the initial outpatient PHCC visit) with follow-up data collected at approximately 6-month intervals. This study will determine how patients with PH are evaluated, tested, and treated, and will observe how well patients do. The goal of the project is to see if patients with PH are treated according to recommended guidelines and to see if there are certain factors which lead to better or worse outcomes in patients with PH. There is no intervention or study medication used and there is no limitation to how a patient is treated in this study.

INDUCTION STUDY #1 - A PHASE 3, MULTICENTER, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED STUDY OF ORAL OZANIMOD AS INDUCTION THERAPY FOR MODERATELY TO SEVERELY ACTIVE CROHN'S DISEASE

Date Added
January 26th, 2021
PRO Number
Pro00102262
Researcher
Erin Forster

List of Studies


Keywords
Crohn's Disease
Summary

The purpose of this study is to see whether Ozanimod is safe and effective for treating Crohn's disease. Participants who are aged 18 to 75 years with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease may be eligible.

To do this, a comparison will be made between subjects who receive active drug and subjects who receive placebo (a ‘dummy treatment' that looks like the active drug but contains no active ingredient). The chance of being randomized (like drawing names out of a hat) into ozanimod group and receiving ozanimod is 67%. The chance of being randomized into placebo group and receiving placebo is 33%.

This study is designed to last up to 30 weeks, including 2 screening visits, 4 study visits, and 2 follow-up visits. The study drug may improve participant's Crohn's disease condition, but this cannot be guaranteed.
