Hyperpolarized Xenon MRI in Adults With Pulmonary Hypertension in Interstitial Lung Disease and Systemic Sclerosis

Harmonized Hyperpolarized 129Xe MRI for Noninvasive Assessment of Pulmonary Hypertension in Interstitial Lung Disease and Systemic Sclerosis (ILD-PH/SSc)

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study aims to evaluate a noninvasive magnetic resonance imaging technique using hyperpolarized xenon gas to measure lung function in adults with interstitial lung disease, pulmonary hypertension, and systemic sclerosis. Researchers will assess whether MRI measurements correlate with clinical measures of lung and vascular function.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Concurrent enrollment and participation in a study which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would interfere with the study compliance, or outcome assessments or would prohibit the collection of the required data points.

Other illness

  • Any condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would make it unsafe or unsuitable for the participants to undergo MRI (for example: presence of an implanted or external MRI unsafe device that cannot be removed, body weight exceeding table limitations, inability to lie flat, or severe claustrophobia).
  • Active pulmonary infection or lung cancer.
  • Recent respiratory infection or pulmonary disease exacerbation within 4 weeks of screening.

Other

  • Inability to hold breath for 10-15 seconds for required imaging or for completion of DLCO measurements.
  • Participants who are known to be pregnant or lactating.

Who the study is looking for

  • Age ≥18 years at enrollment.
  • Participant is willing and able to provide written informed consent.
  • Able (in the Investigator's opinion) and willing to comply with all study requirements.
  • Participant has or is suspected to have one of the following pulmonary conditions:
  • Healthy volunteers: aged 18-30 years; no known cardiopulmonary disease; has not smoked tobacco products in the previous 5 years; smoking history, if any, is less than or equal to 5 pack-years; no history of using other inhaled products more than 1 time per week for \> 1 year OR
  • ILD-PH: ≥18 years; ILD diagnosis; precapillary PH by RHC (mPAP \>20 mmHg, PVR \>2 WU, PCWP ≤15 mmHg) within the specified window OR
  • SSc: systemic sclerosis diagnosis with or without PH

Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Accepts healthy volunteers
