Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the new inhaler, Bevespi improves lung function. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using inhaled hyperpolarized 129Xe gas, that can provide useful images of the functioning of the lung will be used as a new measure to determine change in function. The investigator anticipate these images will provide more specific information about lung disease than standard lung function tests in response to treatment.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Clinical diagnosis of COPD confirmed by post-bronchodilator spirometry demonstrating (forced expiratory volume at 1 second(FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) 10 mg/day of prednisone
- Chronic oxygen use (intermittent or continuous)
- Previous lung resection surgery or decortication
- Previous history of pneumothorax
- Evidence of interstitial, occupational or chronic infectious lung disease by imaging studies
- History of exposure to occupational or environmental hazards that are known to cause lung diseases
- For women of child bearing potential, positive pregnancy test
- Major chronic illnesses which in the judgement of the study physician would interfere with participation in the study
- Patients who are not willing to withhold COPD inhalers for the run-in period.
- MRI is contraindicated based on responses to MRI screening questionnaire
- Subject is pregnant or lactating
- Respiratory illness of a bacterial or viral etiology within 30 days of MRI
- Subject has any form of known cardiac arrhythmia
- Subject does not fit into 129Xe vest coil used for MRI
- Subject cannot hold his/her breath for 15 seconds
- Subject deemed unlikely to be able to comply with instructions during imaging
