What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 portable oxygen during physical activity can improve quality of life, exercise ability, and shortness of breath in people with mild-to-moderate interstitial lung disease. Participants will receive oxygen for 8 weeks, and some will also get extra support from a respiratory therapist. The goal is to see if this approach is helpful and practical.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Individuals with fibrotic ILD (all sub-groups of ILD) who have normal oxygen saturation at rest (SpO2 \> 90%) but develop exertional hypoxemia as demonstrated by a SpO2 = 80-89% with activity (measured during 6MWT). Exclusion Criteria: * Use of home oxygen therapy within the previous year for the management of ILD, co-morbid conditions that may require oxygen therapy (such as COPD, cardiovascular disease, or other illnesses), or individuals that require the use of non-invasive ventilation. Additionally, individuals with significant cardiovascular, metabolic, neuromuscular or any other disease that could contribute to dyspnea or abnormal cardiopulmonary responses to exercise will be excluded. Individuals with musculoskeletal injuries that prevent them from completing cycle ergometry exercise trials and ambulation will also be excluded. Individuals with peripheral vascular disease will be excluded from measurement of vascular function (flow mediated dilation).
