Abstract

Interstitial lung diseases (ILD), including those related to connective tissue disease (CTD), and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) carry high morbidity and mortality. Great efforts are under way to develop and investigate meaningful treatments in the context of clinical trials. However, efforts have been challenged by a lack of validated outcome measures and by inconsistent use of measures in clinical trials. Lack of consensus has fragmented effective use of strategies in CTD-ILD and IPF, with a history of resultant difficulties in obtaining agency approval of treatment interventions. Until recently, the patient perspective to determine domains and outcome measures in CTD-ILD and IPF had never been applied. Efforts described here demonstrate unequivocally the value and influence of patient involvement on core set development. Regarding CTD-ILD, this is the first OMERACT working group to directly address a manifestation/comorbidity of a rheumatic disease (ILD) as well as a disease not considered rheumatic (IPF). The OMERACT 11 proceedings of the CTD-ILD Working Group describe the forward and lateral process to include both the medical and patient perspectives in the urgently needed identification of a core set of preliminary domains and outcome measures in CTD-ILD and IPF.

Abstract

Rationale: Clinical trial design in interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) has been hampered by lack of consensus on appropriate outcome measures for reliably assessing treatment response. In the setting of connective tissue diseases (CTDs), some measures of ILD disease activity and severity may be confounded by non-pulmonary comorbidities. Methods: The Connective Tissue Disease associated Interstitial Lung Disease (CTD-ILD) working group of Outcome Measures in Rheumatology-a non-profit international organisation dedicated to consensus methodology in identification of outcome measures-conducted a series of investigations which included a Delphi process including >248 ILD medical experts as well as patient focus groups culminating in a nominal group panel of ILD experts and patients. The goal was to define and develop a consensus on the status of outcome measure candidates for use in randomised controlled trials in CTD-ILD and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Results: A core set comprising specific measures in the domains of lung physiology, lung imaging, survival, dyspnoea, cough and health-related quality of life is proposed as appropriate for consideration for use in a hypothetical 1-year multicentre clinical trial for either CTD-ILD or IPF. As many widely used instruments were found to lack full validation, an agenda for future research is proposed. Conclusion: Identification of consensus preliminary domains and instruments to measure them was attained and is a major advance anticipated to facilitate multicentre RCTs in the field.

Abstract

Using high-resolution real-time two-dimensional ultrasound, we have investigated the role of red cells in the growth of already established platelet aggregates under controlled flow conditions. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) was circulated in vitro in horizontally and vertically arranged tubing at mean shear rate ranging from 60 to 0 sec- , and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) was used to induce platelet aggregation. ADP-induced platelet aggregates grew in size and tende to sediment ps shear rate decreased, in particular, below 10 sec. At 0 sec −1 (stasis), large clusters of platelet aggregates formed. The addition of washed red cells to produce a hematocrit of only 2% significantly interfered with the growth and sedimentation of platelet aggregates as shear rate was reduced. Formaldehyde-hardened erythrocytes had a similar effect in preventing the growth of platelet aggregates, suggesting that mechanical collision of red cells with platelet aggregates may be the cause of growth inhibition. Therefore, the thrombotic process may be enhanced in red cell poor zones in circulation resulting from flow disturbances associated with vascular stenosis or within artificial organs and extracorporeal systems. The present study also suggested that red cell free PRP should be carefully administered therapeutically.
