Eligibility:

Brief Summary

This is a 3 year longitudinal study to identify novel endpoints and compare these with standard measures such as forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) for their ability to measure and predict CO...

  • Current or ex-smokers with a smoking history of at least 10 pack-years (number of pack years = (number of cigarettes per day / 20) x number of years smoked e.g., 20 cigarettes per day for 10 years, or 10 cigarettes per day for 20 years).
  • A signed and dated written informed consent is obtained prior to participation
  • Able to comply with the requirements of the protocol and be available for study visits over 3 years
  • Control Subjects - Current/Ex Smokers

  • Male or female subjects, aged 40-75 years inclusive, who are free from significant disease as determined by history, physical examination and screening investigations
  • Baseline (post-bronchodilator) FEV1 \>85% of predicted normal. FEV1/FVC ratio \>70%
  • Current or ex-smokers with a smoking history of at least 10 pack-years (number of pack years = (number of cigarettes per day / 20) x number of years smoked e.g., 20 cigarettes per day for 10 years, or 10 cigarettes per day for 20 years).

  • Non-smokers with a smoking history of \< 1 pack-year (number of pack years = (number of cigarettes per day / 20) x number of years smoked).
  • A signed and dated written informed consent is obtained prior to participation.
  • Able to comply with the requirements of the protocol and be available for study visits over 3 years
  • Exclusion Criteria:
  • COPD Subjects
  • A COPD subject will not be eligible for inclusion in this study if any of the following criteria apply:
  • Known respiratory disorders, or disorders identified at screening/visit 1 (including identification on the first CT scan), other than COPD (e.g.: lung cancer, sarcoidosis, tuberculosis, lung fibrosis, cystic fibrosis)
  • Known history of significant inflammatory disease, other than COPD (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis and Lupus)
  • Known to be severely alpha-1-antitrypsin deficient (PI SZ or ZZ)

  • Have received a blood transfusion in the 4 weeks prior to study start
  • Has experienced a moderate or severe exacerbation (requiring oral corticosteroid, antibiotics or hospitalisation) within the last 4 weeks. All courses of oral corticosteroids and antibiotics must be completed at least 2 weeks before study start
  • Is on long term oral corticosteroids (long term is considered use for more than 3 consecutive months)
  • Unable to walk
  • Subject is a participating investigator, sub-investigator, study co-ordinator, or employee of a participating investigator, or is an immediate family member of the aforementioned.
