Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Willing and able to provide informed consent and to participate in the study
  • Age \> or = 40 years at the time of the screening
  • Advanced upper lobe predominant emphysema by CT scan
  • Two (2) subsegments appropriate for treatment based upon CT scan in 2 different upper lobe segments in each lung (total 4 available subsegments)
  • MRCD questionnaire score of 2 or greater at screening
  • Failure of medical therapy to provide relief of symptoms
  • Spirometry 15 minutes after administration of bronchodilator (BOTH):
  • FEV1 \< 50% predicted
  • FEV1/FVC ratio \< 70%
  • Lung volumes by plethysmography (BOTH):
  • TLC \> 100% predicted
  • RV \> 150% predicted
  • DLco \> or = 20 and \< or = 60% predicted
  • Oxygen saturation (SpO2) \> 90% on \< or = 4 L/min supplemental O2, at rest
  • Six-Minute Walk Test distance \> or = 150 m
  • +1 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Prior lung volume reduction surgery, prior lobectomy or pneumonectomy, prior lung transplantation, prior airway stent placement, prior pleurodesis, or prior endobronchial lung volume reduction therapy of any type
  • Requirement for ventilator support (invasive or non-invasive)
  • Three (3) or more COPD exacerbations requiring hospitalization within 1 year of Screening visit or a COPD exacerbation requiring hospitalization within 8 weeks of Screening visit
  • α-1 antitrypsin serum level of \<80 mg/dl (immunodiffusion) or \<11µmol/L (nephelometry) at Screening visit in the absence of enzyme replacement therapy. Patients with documented α-1 antitrypsin deficiency requiring replacement therapy are excluded from the study participation.
  • Pulmonary hypertension, defined as:
  • Echocardiogram with estimated peak systolic pressure \> 45 mmHg in the presence of tricuspid valve regurgitation stated in the echocardiogram report
  • If the echocardiogram shows peak systolic pressure \> 45 mmHg, right heart catheterization is required to rule out pulmonary hypertension, defined as peak systolic pressure \> 45 mmHg or mean pressure \> 35 mmHg
  • Clinically significant asthma (reversible airway obstruction) or bronchiectasis
  • CT scan: Presence of the following radiologic abnormalities:
  • Pulmonary nodule on CT scan greater that 1.0 cm in diameter (Does not apply if present for 2 years or more without increase in size or if proven benign by biopsy/PET)
  • Radiologic picture consistent with active pulmonary infection, e.g., unexplained parenchymal infiltrate
  • Significant interstitial lung disease
  • Significant pleural disease
  • Giant bullous disease (a predominant bulla \> 10 cm in diameter)
  • Use of systemic steroids \> 20 mg/day or equivalent, immunosuppressive agents, heparins, oral anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin, dicumarol; note: antiplatelet drugs including aspirin and clopidogrel are permitted) and investigational medications within 4 weeks of screening
  • +11 more criteria
