The Clinical Value of Serum KL-6 Changes on Evaluating Disease Development in Different Diffuse Parenchymal Lung Disease

April 11, 2017 updated by: chen miao, The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University
Diffuse Parenchymal Lung Disease(DPLD) is a chronic progressive fibrosis lung disease that with a highly variable clinical process.Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) is a high-molecular-weight glycoprotein, classified as human MUC1 mucin, that is produced mainly by regenerating type II pneumocytes.Serum levels of KL-6 have been shown to be elevated in patients with DPLD and could predict progress, but unaware of the differential threshold. The objective of this study was to perspectively and sequentially monitor serum KL-6 levels in patients with different DPLD,then analyze its clinical value and find the differential threshold.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

Subjects and Method: Recruiting different DPLD patients in our hospital between 2013 February and 2016 October, including polymyositis/dermatomyositis related interstitial lung disease (PM/DM-ILD), rheumatoid arthritis related interstitial lung disease (RA - ILD), interstitial pneumonia with autoimmune features(IPAF) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis(IPF), following up for enery 3 to 6 months. Once condition deteriorated, patient could return at any time if necessary according to our clinical physician judgment. Tumor markers，pulmonary function test(PFT); chest thin-section CT examination and CT scores; serum KL-6 levels were acquired in all patients at baseline and follow-ups. Serum KL-6 was measured on LUMIPULSE G System(FUJIREBIO, JAPAN) by chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay. All follow-up patients will be respectively divided into improved,stable and deteriotated group according to the official ATS/ERS statement.

Inclusion criteria: (1)patient with PM/DM-ILD, RA-ILD, IPAF, IPF.The diagnosis of patient were according to the official ATS/ERS statement and the American College of Rheumatology/European League standard;(2)18 to 80 years old.

Exclusion criteria: (1)conbination with pulmonary tubenculersis,pulmonary infection,tumor;(2)no serum KL-6 or pulmonary function test or chest thin-section CT examintion ;(3)patient with severe hepatic and renal dysfunction,heart disease or receiving hemodialysis treatment;(4)pregnant or plan to be pregnant

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
improved group
defined by two or more of the following: A decrease in symptoms, specifically an increase in the level of exertion required before the patient must stop because of breathlessness or a decline in the frequency or severity of cough Reduction of parenchymal abnormalities on chest CT scan Physiologic improvement defined by > 10% increase in FVC (or at least > 200-ml change) or > 15% increase in single-breath DLCO (or at least > 3 ml/min/mm Hg)
deteriorated group
defined by two or more of the following: An increase in symptoms, especially dyspnea or cough; An increase in opacities on chest CT scan, especially the development of honeycombing ; deterioration in lung function with > 10% decrease in FVC ( or > 200ml change) or > 15% decrease in DLCO (or at least > 3ml/min/mm Hg change).
stable group
not included in improved group or deteriorated group

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Serum KL-6
Time Frame: 3 years
serum samples were prospectively cellected from 180 patients at baseline and follow-ups. Serum KL-6 was measured on LUMIPULSE G System(FUJIREBIO, JAPAN) by chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay.
3 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Forced vital capacity（FVC）
Time Frame: 3 years
All patient were underwent spirometry examination on COSMED spirometer at baseline and follow-ups.Forced vital capacity（FVC）and the percentages of predicting value (FVC%pre) were recorded.
3 years
Diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide（DLCO）
Time Frame: 3 years
All patient were underwent diffusion capacity examination by intra-breath method on COSMED spirometer at baseline and follow-ups.Diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide（DLCO）and the percentages of predicting value (DLCO%pre) were recorded.
3 years
CT score
Time Frame: 3 years
All chest CT was obtained with 1 or 2 mm sequentially throughout the entire lung at baseline and follow-ups.CT scans were reviewed independtly by two thracic radiologists without knowledge of clinical,physiologic,or pathologic parameters,at a window level of -650 H and a window width of 1200 H. Obsevers were also kept unaware of patient diagnose.The whole lung were divided into six areas at the level of the aortic arch and inferior pulmonary vein.Each erea was scored on a scale of 0-10.
