| Scientific title | On demand prostacyclin inhalation in obstructive pulmonary disease and pulmonary hypertension: a single centre prospective randomised double-blind crossover study |
| Study acronym | The OPTION pilot study |
| Study hypothesis | We hypothesise that inhalative iloprost improves the exercise capacity in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with secondary pulmonary hypertension (PH). |
| Ethics approval(s) | Ethics Committee of Basel (Ethikkommission Beider Basel, Switzerland) approved on the 10th August 2009 (ref: EKBB 190/09) |
| Condition | Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with secondary pulmonary hypertension |
| Intervention | In every of the three study visits the patient will inhale one of the following in a randomised manner prior to the exercise test: 1. 0.9% saline (2 ml) 2. 10 μg iloprost diluted in 0.9% saline (2 ml) 3. 20 μg iloprost diluted in 0.9% saline (2 ml) All study visits have to be done on different days within one month. |
| Intervention type | Drug |
| Pharmaceutical study type(s) | |
| Phase | Not Applicable |
| Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Iloprost |
| Primary outcome measure | Six-minute walking distance (6MWD) test, measured during the three study visits, after every inhalation. |
| Secondary outcome measures | Measured during the three study visits, after every inhalation: 1. Oxygen consumption 2. Oxygen saturation 3. Ventilation 4. Carbon dioxide production 5. Arterial oxygen content 6. Alveolar-arterial gradient 7. BORG score |

Eligibility
| Participant type(s) | Patient |
|---|---|
| Age group | Adult |
| Sex | Both |
| Target number of participants | 17 |
| Participant inclusion criteria | 1. Patients with diagnosed COPD (Global initiative for chronic Obstructive Lung Disease [GOLD] I - IV) 2. Confirmed disproportional pulmonary arterial hypertension (mean pulmonary artery pressure of over 45 mmHg during exercise and/or over 30 mmHg at rest) 3. Aged above 40 years, men and women |
| Participant exclusion criteria | 1. Mental disorder preventing appropriate judgment concerning study participation 2. Significant comorbidity resulting in reduced life expectancy (lower than 6 months) 3. Significant exacerbation of COPD within the last month 4. Decompensated heart failure (left ventricular ejection fraction below 30%) 5. Present pulmonary embolism 6. PH explained by another cause than COPD 7. Pregnant and breastfeeding women |
