Official title
Long Term Follow up of the Lung Transplant Outcomes Group Cohort
Overview
The purpose of the study is to follow participants who enrolled in the Lung Transplant Outcomes Group. Clinical data, functional assessments, and surveys will be collected to determine long term graft function and functional status of lung transplant recipients.
Detailed description
This project will involve both retrospective and prospective data collection from participants enrolled in the LTOG cohort studies. We will perform long-term Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction (CLAD) phenotyping of lung transplant recipients who participated in the LTOG cohort studies utilizing data collected for routine clinical visits. Surviving lung transplant recipients who participated in the LTOG cohort studies will be recruited to enroll in the longitudinal portion of the project. The longitudinal component will include follow-up data collection at 6 month intervals while alive until study termination, study withdrawal, or no longer being seen for follow-up at the participating center. Follow-up data collection will include clinical data collected by study coordinators by reviewing medical records, functional assessment through administration of the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), blood collection and surveys. Data from this project will be linked to data and samples collected during the LTOG cohort or ancillary studies.
Primary outcome measures
- Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction (CLAD) phenotyping [Time frame: From date of transplant to the development of CLAD, up to 25 years]
- Functional status phenotyping [Time frame: From date of transplant to until study termination, withdrawal, or no longer being seen for follow-up at the participating center, up to 25 years]
- Well being phenotyping-LT-VLA [Time frame: From date of transplant to until study termination, withdrawal, or no longer being seen for follow-up at the participating center, up to 25 years]
- Well being phenotyping-LT-QOL [Time frame: From date of transplant to until study termination, withdrawal, or no longer being seen for follow-up at the participating center, up to 25 years]
