NCT05550844

Brief Summary

Some sparse scientific data support the hypothesis that otherwise unexplained emphysema may be associated with FLNA mutation. This prospective, monocentric, cross-sectional study aimed to describe the frequency of emphysema in patients carrying an FLNA mutation. Patients with FLNA mutations who accept the study will benefit from a chest physician's clinical examination, respiratory function tests and a chest scan. The primary endpoint is to describe emphysema's frequency in patients carrying FLNA mutation. The other objectives are to describe emphysema's features in these patients and to describe their lung function abnormalities. The final goal is to confirm the association between unexplained emphysema and FLNA mutation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Frequency of emphysema in patients carrying FLNA mutation

    The presence or absence of emphysema is determined by the chest CT scan.

    Baseline

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Morphological of emphysema

    Baseline

  • Topographical characteristics of emphysema

    Baseline

  • The severity of emphysema

    Baseline

  • Descriptive analysis of functional respiratory abnormalities measured by the functional respiratory test

    Baseline

  • Frequency of unexplained emphysema in patients carrying a FLNA mutation

    Baseline

Interventions

Chest HRCTRADIATION

A chest HRCT to identify emphysema

If emphysema is identified, a blood analysis will be performed to exclude known causes of emphysema (Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, PTPN6 mutation)

Lung function tests will be performed in accordance with ATS/ERS technical standard
