Treatment of severe stable COPD: the multidimensional approach of treatable traits

Abstract: Now that additional treatment options for severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have emerged in recent years, patients with severe COPD should not be left in the rather hopeless situation of “there is nothing to improve” any more. Inertia or fatalism is a disservice to our patients. Ranging from advanced care planning to quite intense and demanding therapies such as multidisciplinary pulmonary rehabilitation, (endoscopic) lung volume reduction, chronic noninvasive ventilation and lung transplanta… Show more

“…Basic elements for a successful program are dedication, COPD expert knowledge, access to interventional pulmonology, access to multimodality treatments for COPD (other bronchoscopic and surgical LVR techniques, 47 pulmonary rehabilitation, noninvasive ventilation, and lung transplantation), 21 , 48 well-organized in-house logistics and facilities (radiology, pulmonary function testing, anesthesia, thoracic surgery), and a solid referral network. Participation in scientific efforts can be important for advancing the BLVR field and getting the exposure needed for patient referrals.…”

“…[5] This indicates the need for personalized management, for example using a treatable traits approach to assessment, classification, and management of COPD. [6,7] Three large observational studies, Evaluation of COPD Longitudinally to Identify Predictive Surrogate End-points (ECLIPSE) [8], Genetic Epidemiology of COPD (COPDGene) Study [9], Subpopulations and Intermediate Outcomes in COPD Study (SPIROMICS) [10] were designed to address the complexity and heterogeneity of COPD, but they were all conducted in North America and Europe. A fourth study in individuals with obstructive lung disease (NOVELTY) is ongoing and includes patients in Asia.…”

“…Careful patient selection for the different treatment options is very important for treatment success and including different disciplines in the multidisciplinary team emphysema expert meeting is key to ideal treatment allocation. This meeting could even be expanded when including more disciplines and treatment options like in a recently described multidimensional respiratory failure meeting [ 12 ]. Consequently, this indicates that it is important to have specialised emphysema treatment centres who have experience with the disease and have access to the different treatment options, which will lead to the potential most ideal treatment option for the patient.…”
