Colchicine and Post-COVID-19 Pulmonary Fibrosis
Pulmonary fibrosis is a sequela to adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). 40% of patients with corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) develop ARDS, and 20% of them are severe. Clinical, radiographic, and autopsy reports of pulmonary fibrosis were commonplace following SARS and MERS, and current evidence suggests pulmonary fibrosis could complicate infection by SARS-CoV-2 too. Colchicine has a direct anti-inflammatory effect by inhibiting the synthesis of tumor necrosis factor alpha and IL-6, monocyte migration, and the secretion of matrix metalloproteinase-9. It suppress secretion of cytokines and chemokines as well as in vitro platelet aggregation. All these are potentially...

Comparison of Pulmonary Telerehabilitation and Physical Activity Recommendations in Patients with Post Covid Fibrosis
Rehabilitation plays a very important role in the management of patients with COVID-19, focusing on respiratory and motor functions, and therefore the importance of establishing treatment strategies to ensure optimal recovery of these patients has been emphasized. It has been stated that physical activity recommendations should be clarified for the management of symptoms associated with prolonged COVID-19 Syndrome and for the continuation of activities of daily living. It has been stated that after COVID-19 pneumonia, it is necessary to evaluate the physical functions of patients with long-term follow-up and to establish rehabilitation programs. The importance of being included...

Diarrheal Adverse Events in Caucasian Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Undergoing Treatment With Nintedanib
The goal of this observational study is to to identify the demographic and clinical characteristics associated with the development of diarrheal adverse events in a Caucasian population with IPF undergoing treatment with nintedanib. Additionally this study aims to evaluate the different therapeutic strategies for dose reduction of nintedanib and assess the effectiveness of these strategies in reducing the occurrence of diarrhea.

Digital Modeling of Thoracic CT and Pulmonary Fibrosis
Currently, to our knowledge, there is little data on the combination of tools based on a similar concept to understand and evaluate ILDs. It is expected that this portfolio of multi-tool software implemented in radiology departments, applied to routine thoracic TDM, will provide additional qualitative and quantitative information in real time that will be of great help for diagnosis, prognosis prediction, and treatment decision-making in ILDs.

Genentech Xenon MRI Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
The purpose of this study is being done to determine whether magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using inhaled hyper-polarized 129 Xenon gas can help visualize impaired lung function to detect changes over time in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) patients receiving approved IPF treatments. Subjects will undergo an approximately hour long comprehensive MRI protocol, including administration of multiple doses of hyper-polarized 129 Xenon. The subjects will have this initial study prior to initiation of IPF therapies. Then the subjects will have repeat studies at 3, 6 and 12 months following the initiation of therapy. Additional studies including pulmonary function studies, serum...

INCHANGE - Nintedanib for Changes in Cough and Dyspnea in Patients Suffering From Chronic Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease With a Progressive Phenotype in Everyday Clinical Practice: a Real-world Evaluation
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the correlation between changes from baseline to 52 weeks in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) [% pred.] and changes from baseline to 52 weeks in dyspnea score [points] or cough score [points] as measured with the living with pulmonary fibrosis (L-PF) questionnaire over 52 weeks of nintedanib treatment in patients suffering from chronic fibrosing Interstitial lung disease (ILD) with a progressive phenotype (excluding idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF)).
