September 21, 2019 updated by: Rania Othman Ibrahim, Cairo University

Vitamin D Deficiency in Interstitial Lung Diseases

This study evaluates serum level of Vitamin D in Interstitial Lung Diseases in patients with Interstitial Lung Diseases other than connective tissue diseases associated-Interstitial Lung Diseases and effects of its supplementation.

All patients will receive the standard regimen of treatment (corticosteroids and immunosuppressive drugs)and will be randomly assigned to either Group 1:who will receive Vitamin D supplementation (Interventional group)or Group 2:who will not receive Vitamin D supplementation(Control group).

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

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.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Pulmonary fibrosis was due to chronic inflammation and disordered wound healing in response to damage induced by a variety of agents such as viral infection and radiotherapy or environmental toxins.it is characterized by accumulation of myofibroblasts and excessive deposition of the extracellular matrix.Epithelial cells undergoes epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Supplementation with vitamin D or its analogs suppresses lung fibrosis via triggering anti-fibrotic effect through attenuation of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-B).vitamin D can reduce TGF-B expression and attenuate TGF-B induced epithelial mesenchymal transition in lung fibroblast and epithelial cells.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 75 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

patients who will be diagnosed as interstitial lung disease by multidisciplinary approach based on clinical, functional, radiological and pathological diagnosis when needed.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who have other diseases affecting Vitamin D levels like chronic liver diseases, chronic kidney diseases and malignancy.
  • patients who will be unable to do pulmonary functions or 6-minutes walk test.
  • patients with ischemic heart diseases and congestive heart failure.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Interstitial lung patients with low vitamin D
Arm 1:(interventional group): interstitial lung diseases patients with low vitamine D will receive Vitamin D supplementation in form of Vitamin D3 (1.25(OH)2 cholecalciferol) in dose of 200.000 IU intramuscular injection every 2 weeks for 3 months for deficient vitamin D level patients and every month for 3 months for insufficient vitamin D level patients beside ca supplementation in form ca carbonate 600 mg oral capsule once daily for 3 months for all patients in addition to current treatment.
Dietary supplement: Vitamin D3 (1.25 (OH)2 cholecalciferol)

Vitamin D 3 in a dose of 200.000 IU intramuscular injection every 2 weeks for 3 months for Vitamin D deficient interstitial lung disease patients and every month for 3 months for vitamin D insufficient interstitial lung disease patients.

calcium supplementation in form of ca carbonate 600 mg oral capsule once daily for 3 months for all patients.

Other Names:
  • calcium carbonate
No Intervention: interstitial lung diseases patients with low vitamin D
Arm 2(control group): interstitial lung diseases patients with vitamin D deficient / insufficient will receive their current treatment only without vitamin D supplementation.

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
change in lung functions (spirometric data) from baseline i.e change of Forced vital capacity (FVC) percent predicted values from baseline
Time Frame: baseline and 12 week (measurement at enrollment and end of study)
functional improvement via improvement of pulmonary function parameters as regard to volumes like {forced vital capacity(FVC) percent predicted value} .
baseline and 12 week (measurement at enrollment and end of study)
change in lung functions (spirometric data) from baseline i.e change of Forced expiratory volume in 1st second (FEV1) percent predicted values from baseline
Time Frame: baseline and 12 week (measurement at enrollment and end of study)
functional improvement via improvement of pulmonary function parameters as regard to volumes like {forced expiratory volume in 1st second(FEV1) percent predicted value} .
baseline and 12 week (measurement at enrollment and end of study)
change in lung functions (spirometric data) from baseline i.e change in forced expiratory flow at 25% (FEF25%) percent predicted values from baseline
Time Frame: baseline and 12 week (measurement at enrollment and end of study)
functional improvement via improvement of pulmonary function parameters as regard to velocity like {forced expiratory volume in 1st second(FEV1) percent predicted value} .
baseline and 12 week (measurement at enrollment and end of study)
change in 6-minutes walk distance
Time Frame: baseline and 12 week (measurement at enrollment and end of study)
change in 6-minutes walk distance walked by the patient for 6 minutes
baseline and 12 week (measurement at enrollment and end of study)

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
change in dyspnea score grading from baseline
Time Frame: baseline and 12 week (measurement at enrollment and end of study)
dyspnea score will be evaluated by Modified Medical Research Council(mMRC) scale which consist in 5 statements that describe almost the entire range of dyspnea from none (G 0) to almost complete in capacity ( G 4).
