Skeletal Muscle Function in Interstitial Lung Disease
Dyspnea (i.e. breathlessness) and exercise intolerance are common symptoms for patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), yet it is not known why. It has been suggested that muscle dysfunction may contribute to dyspnea and exercise intolerance in ILD. Our study aims to: i) examine differences in the structure and function of the leg muscles in ILD patients, ii) determine if leg muscle fatigue contributes to dyspnea and exercise limitation in patients with ILD, and iii) determine the effects of breathing extra oxygen on leg muscle fatigue, as well as ability to exercise in ILD patients.

Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of Treamid for Patients With Reduced Exercise Tolerance After COVID-19
The innovative drug Treamid is planned for use in the treatment of patients with persistent lung damage and reduced exercise tolerance exertion after COVID-19 pneumonia in a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase IIb/III clinical study to assess the efficacy and safety of Treamid during a 28-day treatment. The primary objective of the study is to prove that in the Treamid group, the proportion of patients achieving clinically significant load tolerance is statistically significantly higher than in the placebo group. The secondary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety of Treamid and achievement...

The Role of Quantitative CT and Radiomic Biomarkers for Precision Medicine in Pulmonary Fibrosis
This observational study involves obtaining 2 chest CT scans; a historical baseline CT within ±1 year of enrollment into PRECISIONS, and a follow-up CT (either historical or prospective) 12 months ± 180 days after the baseline CT. Many IPF patients will have a CT scan every 12 months for disease monitoring and cancer screening. Participants will have the option to share historical CTs only or they can choose to have a research CT done for the follow-up scan, if a scan for clinical purposes is not available.

Ventilation Using Radiographic Examination: Functional Lung Imaging Techniques for the Reduction of Toxicity in Functional Avoidance Radiation Therapy
The goal of this observational validation study is to determine the best implementation of fluoroscopic and CT ventilation imaging in patients having non-stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (non-SABR) radiotherapy for stages II-IV lung cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Assess the dosimetric variation in functional avoidance radiation therapy (RT) plans produced using these ventilation imaging techniques, - Establish a quality assurance procedure for functional lung avoidance radiation therapy, and - Evaluate the clinical acceptable thresholds for accuracy of the method. ...

Infusion of Allogeneic Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Patients With Diffuse Cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis With Refractory Pulmonary Involvement
Progressive SSc is an entity with limited therapeutic alternatives and with asurvival rate of less than 45% in the first 3 to 5 years. The disease causessevere limitation in quality of life ranging from functional limitation to depression. Up to 20% of patients will be refractory to conventional treatment with diseasemodifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and cyclophosphamide therapy.This favors the progression to visceral involvement including gastrointestinal,lung and pulmonary hypertension. The latter being a poor prognostic factor,increases mortality in this group of patients and drastically affects their qualityof life. For...
