Most exacerbations are not treated until they cause increased symptoms, and patients seek medical attention. This proposal details a study of home lung function and symptom monitoring. Subjects will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) home monitoring, in which spirometry and symptoms are recorded; or 2) standard care. The home monitoring data will be transmitted electronically to the study center. If spirometry or symptoms have deteriorated substantially, treatment for a CF pulmonary exacerbation will be initiated. It is anticipated that use of home monitoring will lead to earlier, more reliable recognition and treatment of exacerbations, which will translate into better lung health.', 'detailedDescription': 'Individuals with CF develop chronic lung infections and suffer intermittent exacerbations, which require intensive treatment with antibiotics. The most common and useful objective measure of CF lung disease is spirometry. Chronic treatment of CF lung disease requires airway clearance, mucolytics and antibiotics. These treatments have been quite successful and there is evidence that early, aggressive treatment of lung disease results in better outcomes. Unfortunately, most exacerbations are not treated until they cause pronounced deterioration in symptoms, which prompts patients to seek medical attention. Self-monitoring of clinical status has improved outcomes in many other disorders such as asthma, diabetes mellitus, and lung transplantation. This is an important, randomized trial of home lung function and symptom monitoring in CF. Subjects will be assigned to one of two groups: 1) Home monitoring, in which spirometry and symptoms are recorded daily; or 2) Standard Care. The home monitoring data will be transmitted electronically twice weekly to the study center, where the results will be reviewed. If spirometry or symptoms have deteriorated substantially below baseline, treatment for a CF pulmonary exacerbation will be initiated. It is anticipated that use of home monitoring will translate into better clinical outcomes. We will test the hypothesis that if pulmonary exacerbations are identified and treated earlier than the current standard of care, the progression of lung disease will be slowed.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '14 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* CF diagnosis confirmed with sweat test, abnormal nasal potential difference and/or genetic testing\n* Age 14 and older\n* Able to perform spirometry\n* Clinically stable without antibiotic treatment for a pulmonary exacerbation in the two weeks prior to the screening visit\n* Forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) greater than 25% of predicted at screening\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* History of solid organ transplant\n* Participation in any interventional trial within the last 30 days\n* Inability to speak and read the English language well enough to complete questionnaires\n* Colonization with Burkholderia cepacia genomovar III within the last 24 months\n* Currently receiving antimicrobial treatment specifically used to treat active non-tuberculosis mycobacterium\n* Confirmed diagnosis of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) as defined by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF) guidance document that is being actively treated'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01104402', 'acronym': 'eICE', 'briefTitle': 'Early Intervention in Cystic Fibrosis Exacerbation', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Johns Hopkins University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Early Intervention in Cystic Fibrosis Exacerbation', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'NL001'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'LECHTZ10A0', 'type': 'OTHER_GRANT', 'domain': 'Cystic Fibrosis Foundation'}, {'id': 'R01HL103965', 'link': 'https://reporter.nih.gov/quickSearch/R01HL103965', 'type': 'NIH'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'Standard Care', 'description': 'Subjects will receive education about signs and symptoms indicative of worsening CF.'}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Home monitoring', 'description': 'Subjects will be randomized to monitor home spirometry and symptoms using a handheld device.', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Home lung function and symptom monitoring']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Home lung function and symptom monitoring', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'otherNames': ['Jaeger AM2 monitor'], 'description': 'subjects in the intervention arm will measure spirometry and CF symptoms with the use of a handheld device.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Home monitoring']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '21205', 'city': 'Baltimore', 'state': 'Maryland', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'Johns Hopkins University CF Clinic', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 39.29038, 'lon': -76.61219}}, {'zip': '98104-2499', 'city': 'Seattle', 'state': 'Washington', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'University of Washington', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 47.60621, 'lon': -122.33207}}, {'zip': '98105-5371', 'city': 'Seattle', 'state': 'Washington', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': "Seattle Children's Hospital", 'geoPoint': {'lat': 47.60621, 'lon': -122.33207}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Noah Lechtzin, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Johns Hopkins University'}, {'name': 'Christopher Goss, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'University of Washington'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Johns Hopkins University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'University of Washington', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'National Institutes of Health (NIH)', 'class': 'NIH'}, {'name': 'Cystic Fibrosis Foundation', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI)', 'class': 'NIH'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
