NCT ID NCT02811588

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at whether using a breathing machine (non-invasive ventilation) at home, with remote monitoring, can help people with advanced COPD avoid hospital visits. It tracks how often patients need unplanned hospital care and whether the monitoring data can predict problems early. The goal is to see if this approach improves daily life and reduces the burden on healthcare systems.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) with home tele-monitoring
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better ways to monitor COPD patients at home, potentially reducing hospitalizations and improving quality of life.
What could go wrong
The study is observational and early, so it may not prove that tele-monitoring improves outcomes. Also, remote monitoring might not reliably predict all health declines.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Approximately 550 adult female and male patients with COPD eligible for NIV treatment will be enrolled, out of which 231 patients have been enrolled within the phase 1 of the study. If a patient is enrolled into the study but is never using the prescribed device (i.e. refusal of prescribed therapy) he/she will be replaced. If a patient, who has already started NIV therapy, is enrolled, the start of therapy must not be longer than 7 days before enrolment. Within this study population, data of a maximum of about 100 patients will be added by the French ANTADIR registry in line with in- and exclusion criteria of this observational study.
