Clinical trials

This prospective open-label matched-control pilot study evaluates whether inhaled treprostinil improves exercise pulmonary vascular resistance and functional outcomes in adults with interstitial lung disease or connective tissue disease and exercise-induced pulmonary hypertension. Participants will receive inhaled treprostinil plus standard care or standard care alone and will be followed for 6 months, with an optional extension to 12 months.

The purpose of the research is to determine the highest dose of an oral compound called zeaxanthin that can be safely taken each day in patients with advanced cancer, the toxicity profile of zeaxanthin, and the dose of zeaxanthin to use in future cancer clinical trials.
