Hyperpolarized Xenon Functional Lung Imaging in COPD Patients Undergoing Targeted Lung Denervation

NCT05816616 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

Last updated 2026-01-20

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Targeted Lung Denervation (TLD) Therapy is intended to improve airway smooth muscle relaxation from the site of treatment all the way to the lung periphery, which may be beneficial in the treatment of patients with COPD. To better understand the physiological effects of this therapy, the investigators intend to conduct a functional magnetic resonance imaging study of the lung with HP 129Xe study in COPD patients undergoing this procedure. HP 129Xe provides valuable regional information about ventilation and gas exchange in both healthy and diseased lung.

Functional imaging of the lungs using MagniXene (hyperpolarized xenon-129) MRI

Patients for this observational study will be selected on a voluntarily basis from the ongoing Airflow-3 interventional clinical trial at Temple University Hospital. For this observational sub-study, patients will have their lung function measured using hyperpolarized xenon-129 MRI prior to TLD treatment, and 90 days post-treatment for a better understanding of treatment effects. This sub-study does not influence in any way the patient treatment or the outcomes for the main Airflow-3 TLD clinical trial.
