Advanced Imaging for Pulmonary Fibrosis
Who can join
Ages 18 to 80 · All sexes
Full eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age 18-80 with a diagnosis of chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, connective tissue-associated ILD (due to rheumatoid arthritis, systemic sclerosis, mixed connective tissue disease), or undifferentiated ILD. 2. On stable dose immunosuppression treatment (with prednisone, mycophenolate mofetil, mycophenolate sodium, and/or rituximab) for at least 3 months. 3. Pulmonary fibrosis, defined as honeycombing, traction bronchiectasis, or reticular opacities on HRCT performed within 1 year to or at Visit 1. 4. FVC of \>/= 45% and DLCO \>/= 25% predicted on PFTs performed at Visit 1. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Current or prior exposure to FDA approved anti-fibrotic therapy. 2. Extent of emphysema greater than extent of fibrosis. 3. Pregnancy or plans to become pregnant at baseline or during follow-up. 4. Contraindications to MRI. 5. Contraindications to receiving gadolinium-based contrast agents. 6. Research-related radiation exposure exceeds 50 mSv in the prior year. 7. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 30 mL/min (only for individuals with a history of chronic kidney disease). 8. Clinically significant PH defined by use of pulmonary vasodilatory therapy. 9. Respiratory infection within the prior 6 weeks. 10. Smoking of any kind within the prior 6 months.
About the study
The purpose of this study is to determine if measurements of active collagen deposition using \[68Ga\]CBP8 positron emission tomography (PET) and tissue injury using dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) can predict an individual patient's pace of disease progression in non-idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis interstitial lung disease (non-IPF ILD) and identify which individuals will develop progressive pulmonary fibrosis.
