Study Summary

This trial is testing a new way to detect disease activity in interstitial lung diseases using MRI.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with Interstitial Lung Disease diagnosed by a specialist. Participants must be able to consent and follow the study plan. It's not for those with low oxygen levels, recent respiratory infections, MRI contraindications, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or individuals unable to hold their breath for 15 seconds.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study aims to perfect a noninvasive lung imaging technique using Hyperpolarized 129Xe gas exchange MRI. This method could help visualize how ILD responds to treatments across multiple centers involved in this NIH-sponsored research.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves an MRI scan using a special gas called Hyperpolarized Xenon-129, side effects might include discomfort from holding one's breath during scanning and potential claustrophobia inside the MRI machine.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is there available capacity for new enrollees in this trial?

"Affirmative. Clinicaltrials.gov data affirms that the trial, initially posted on November 12th 2021 is still actively recruiting patients. The study requires 147 participants from 4 distinct sites to be enrolled by its completion date."

Answered by AI

What is the current enrollment rate for this clinical trial?

"To carry out this trial, we require 147 participants who qualify for the stated inclusion criteria. Patients can take part in this research from a variety of places including Duke University Medical Center and University of Iowa."

Answered by AI

Has the FDA approved any treatments for Interstitial Lung Disease patients?

"Based on the currently available data, our team at Power rated the safety of ILD patients a 2 out of 3. This estimation is due to it being a Phase 2 trial which has shown some evidence for safety but not efficacy."
