Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This multi-center, prospective cohort study focuses on patients with early Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). It aims to investigate the decline in lung function and its relationship with smoking and other risk factors. The study will analyze various biomarkers and imaging results from chest CT scans to better understand lung health in these patients. By gathering data from multiple centers, the study seeks to provide a comprehensive view of early COPD progression.
