Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: We plan to assess the value of novel MRI techniques to image the lungs of people with CF and bronchiectasis. Our main aims are to see how they compare to current measurements of lung function/structure and check that they give us useful information. Overall, we hope to identify the best MRI scanning methods for assessment of these lung diseases and employ those techniques in future clinical trials. In CF, there is great interest in newer treatments that can improve lung function. At present, we use relatively simple measures such as blowing tests to assess and monitor the efficacy of these therapies. These measurements may not always be sensitive enough to detect changes in the lungs, so newer tests that are more sensitive are required. The lung disease in bronchiectasis is similar to CF and so studying both patient groups will highlight the utility of lung MRI in a broader population. Following this study, we aim to run a clinical trial that will use our lung MRI scanning expertise ; Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of this study are to assess how feasible the different types of MRI scans are for our participants and check how consistent the scans are between different study visits. We will perform different types of MRI scans and what we learn about participant comfort/tolerability as well as imaging quality will greatly assist in the design of future lung MRI studies. We are not sure how much the different MRI scans will change when repeated over time. As such, we will invite participants to be scanned on multiple occasions and then compare their lung images longitudinally. ;Primary end point(s): Success of acquiring 129Xe, OE and UTE MRI lung images from patients with CF and non-CF Bronchiectasis and produce baseline data for these groups to inform future clinical studies.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: We aim to have completed r

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The same timepoints for both primary and secondary outcomes will be used (see above). ; Secondary end point(s): 1) To assess the ability of participants of each group to adhere to the protocols, thus informing the study design of future trials 2) To assess repeatability of MR outcomes across study visits for those subjects undertaking more than one MR scanning visit.
