NCT02481817

Brief Summary

The study is aimed at answering the questions; (1) How well do the most commonly used treatments in iSGS work? and (2) What quality-of-life trade-offs are associated with each approach? With the results of this trial, the investigators hope to provide information to iSGS patients: (1) Given my personal characteristics, conditions, and preferences, what should I expect will happen to me? and (2) What are my options, and what are the potential benefits and harms of these options?

Study Arms (1)

iSGS patients

Participants will receive standard of care treatment at the respective center and will be followed longitudinally for symptom changes, need for further treatment, complications, and will have Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) administered at a priori determined intervals.

Procedure: Endoscopic dilation of subglottic stenosisProcedure: Endoscopic resection of the stenosisProcedure: Tracheal Resection

Interventions

This is accomplished with rigid instruments or inflatable balloons.

iSGS patients

This is accomplished with C02 lasers and paired with prolonged medical therapy after surgery.

iSGS patients

Resection of the affected tracheal segment with end-to-end anastomosis

Also known as: Cricotracheal Resection, Open Airway Surgery
iSGS patients

Biospecimen

Retention: SAMPLES WITH DNA

Biospecimens collected during routine standard of care from each patient (such as tracheal biopsies obtained during surgery, or surgical specimens generated thru open reconstructive surgeries), will be annotated in the EDC with such data including specimen collection, specimen type (e.g., frozen biopsy tissue; FFPE block), and storage location. We may examine excess tissue obtained at standard of care surgical biopsy. Additionally if blood is collected during standard of care (i.e., medically indicated labs, operative or office-based procedures), we will ask participants to provide a one-time, 30 mL blood specimen for research.
