Summary

This study looks for early signs that a treatment called ECP is working in people who have had a lung transplant and developed chronic rejection (CLAD). Researchers will collect blood samples and, for some, lung MRI scans before, during, and after ECP therapy. The goal is to find markers that show if the treatment is helping, so doctors can adjust care sooner. This is an observation-only study — participants receive the same ECP their doctor already prescribed.
