New Meds, Trials, and Studies
MAC Lung Infection
Have you been recently/newly diagnosed with a MAC lung infection? MAC is the most common form of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). NTM are bacteria commonly found in the environment. MAC can get inside your lungs when you breathe them in and can affect certain people more than others. Most people who come in contact with MAC do not develop an infection. However, some individuals are at a greater risk of developing an infection called MAC lung disease. MAC lung disease is a serious condition. If untreated, it can cause damage to the lungs.
A new study is looking for individuals with newly diagnosed MAC lung disease who may be interested in participating in a clinical study that is evaluating a drug for potential treatment of MAC lung infections and for the potential to improve symptoms of MAC lung infection including decreased respiratory discomfort and decreased fatigue.
Your participation in the study could potentially contribute to advancements in MAC lung disease research.
You can visit https://www.patientwing.com/ntmstudy-arise-encore-COPD for more information and to see if you may qualify. If you qualify to enroll, and decide to participate, you will be assigned to one of two studies investigating MAC lung disease.

LEEP Losartan Effects on Emphysema Progression LEEP is a randomized clinical trial evaluating the effect of Losartan in helping people
with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) with emphysema – a disease of the lungs. We are looking for adults 40
years of age or older, current or former smokers, with COPD to join our study. The study is conducted in different states
across the country.
🚬
Insight COPD Intervention Study In Overweight Patients with COPD We are trying to find out if a program proven to help people lose a modest
amount of weight and increase their physical activity will improve COPD symptoms for those with a high BMI. To be in the study, you will
need to have COPD, high BMI, history of smoking, shortness of breath, and be 40 years or older.
🚬
RETHINC REdefining Therapy IN early COPD The purpose of the RETHINC study is to determine whether symptomatic current and former smokers
with normal lung function will benefit from the use of bronchodilator therapy currently used to treat patients who have Chronic Obstructive
Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
