1 Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Jaime Palomino, MD Pulmonary/CCM Tulane University

2 INTRODUCTION COPD is the most important lung disease in U.S.
25% of ED visits for Dyspnea 4th cause of death

3 Definition Disease state characterized by airflow obstruction that is no longer fully reversible and is usually progressive Accelerated declined in FEV1 from 30ml/year after 30y to 60ml “Preventable and treatable”

5 Epidemiology COPD is the fourth leading cause of death in the US.1
>25 million people in US have impaired lung fxn Annual cost of COPD in the US ~ $30.4 billion (ALA) office visits, diagnostic procedures, medications, and emergency and hospital services 1.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Mortality patterns—US, MMWR. 1999;48:

7 COPD – Pathogenesis Cosio et al. NEJM 2009;360:2445-54
In the specimen of the small airways (membranous bronchioles) from the healthy lung of a nonsmoker (Panel A), the airway walls are thin, and intact alveoli are attached along its circumference. In a comparable specimen from the lung of a smoker with COPD (Panel B), the diameter of the airway is narrowed, the airway wall is thickened, and many of the alveolar attachments are broken. CD8+ T lymphocytes (in red) infiltrate the airway wall in the specimen from the smoker with COPD (Panel B) but not in the specimen from the nonsmoker (Panel A) (immunostaining with antihuman CD8; counterstained with hematoxylin). Images courtesy of Dr. Fiorella Calabrese. Cosio et al. NEJM 2009;360:

8 A 100-μm slice from the whole lung shows centrilobular emphysema, which is more prominent in the upper lobes (no staining). The square inset shows centrilobular destruction and enlargement (hematoxylin and eosin). The oval inset shows a severe inflammatory infiltrate, consisting of alveolar macrophages, CD8+ T lymphocytes (immunostaining with antihuman CD8; counterstained with hematoxylin), and other cells, involving the alveolar wall and surrounding air spaces.

9 COPD – Immunology Cosio et al. NEJM 2009;360:2445-54
Cigarette smoke injures epithelial cells, which release “danger signals” that act as ligands for toll-like receptors (TLRs) in the epithelium. These actions trigger the production of chemokines and cytokines, which results in an innate inflammation. Products from the inflammatory cells may injure the extracellular matrix, leading to the release of TLR ligands and consequent TLR activation, which will promote further inflammation, tissue injury, and the production of antigenic substances. This chain of events may cause dendritic cells to mature and migrate to local lymph organs, where, if the conditions are favorable, T-cell activation may result, with progression of the disease. If the innate inflammation in step 1 is minimized or controlled, the inflammation will not progress to adaptive immunity, and the disease may be arrested. These processes are typical of smokers who have neither COPD nor Gold stage 1. GM-CSF denotes granulocyte–macrophage colony-stimulating factor, HSP heat-shock protein, ICAM-1 intercellular adhesion molecule 1, MCP-1 monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, and TNF tumor necrosis factor. Cosio et al. NEJM 2009;360:

10 When step 1 is successful, mature dendritic cells migrate to local lymphatic organs, whereupon stimulation by toll-like receptors (TLRs) leads to the expression of CD80–CD86 and cytokines, creating a propitious milieu for Tcell antigen presentation and proliferation into effector CD4+ type 1 helper (Th1) T cells and cytolytic CD8+ T cells. Interleukin-6, secreted by the dendritic cells, favors the production of effector T cells by overcoming the signals from regulatory T (Treg) cells. Upon activation, effector T cells express tissue-specific chemokine receptors. Immune regulation or tolerance mechanisms will determine at this stage the degree of proliferation of T-cell effectors, homing, and eventually, disease severity. An absence of tolerance is associated with Gold stage 3 or stage 4, moderate tolerance with Gold stage 2, and full tolerance with Gold stage 1. MHC denotes major histocompatibility Complex. Cosio et al. NEJM 2009;360:

11 With the failure of tolerance or immune regulation in step 2, an adaptive immune inflammation (autoimmune) develops in the lung, consisting of CD4+ type 1 helper (Th1) T cells, cytolytic CD8+ T cells, and IgG-producing B cells. Regulatory T cells (Treg) and γδ CD8+ T cells could modulate the severity of the adaptive immune inflammation. The resulting immune inflammation, induced by CD4+ Th1 T cells and consisting of activated innate immune cells producing oxidative stress and proteinases, along with cytolytic CD8+ T cells and B cells, leads to cellular necrosis and apoptosis, immune and complement deposition, tissue injury with airway remodeling, and emphysema, as well as the release of additional antigenic material, which perpetuates the process. In step 3, the full autoimmune process has developed, producing the most severe disease (Gold stage 3 and stage 4). NO denotes nitric oxide, and ROS reactive oxygen species. Cosio et al.

38 Figure 1: Kaplan-Meier estimate of risk of pneumonia as an (A) adverse event or (B) serious adverse event between patients given inhaled budesonide or control treatment (formoterol or placebo). Data pooled from 7 trials: Budesonide w/wo formoterol Vs placebo or formoterol in patients with stable COPD and at least f/u x 6months Primary outcome: risk of pneumonia as an adverse event or serious adverse event Conclusion: No difference in risk of pneumonia btwn budesonide group and control group (F/u x 12 months) FEV1: L (36-80% pred) Total: 1.34L (46% pred) 51% current smokers Budesonide is more rapidly cleared from airways than fluticasone, difference magnified in extensive airflow obstruction. Therefore less down-regulation of local immunity and less bacterial proliferation with budesonide (Hypothesis) Serious adverse event: adverse event that resulted in death or hospital admission.

39 UPLIFT = Understanding Potential Long-Term Impacts on Function with Tiotropium
Randomized, double-blind trial, follow up 4 years Tiotropium Vs placebo in patients with COPD who were permited to use all respiratory medications except inhaled anticholinergic drugs. Primary endpoint: Rate of decline in the mean FEV1 5993 patients, FEV1: 1.32L (48%pred) Tashkin et al. NEJM 2008;359:

40 Panel A shows the probability of treatment discontinuation in the tiotropium group and the placebo group. Panel B shows the estimated mean forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) before and after bronchodilation from day 30 to the end of the study. Before bronchodilation, the annual rates of decline were the same in the tiotropium group and the placebo group: 30±1 ml per year. After bronchodilation, the annual rate of decline was 40±1 ml per year in the tiotropium group, as compared with 42±1 ml per year in the placebo group. Panel C shows the mean forced vital capacity (FVC) before and after bronchodilation from day 30 to the end of the study. Before bronchodilation, the annual rate of decline was 43±3 ml per year in the tiotropium group and 39±3 in the placebo group. After bronchodilation, the annual rates of decline were the same in the tiotropium group and the placebo group: 61±3 ml per year. Panel D shows the healthrelated quality-of-life score from month 6 to the end of the study, as measured on St. George’s Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ), which ranges from 0 to 100, with lower scores indicating improvement. The annual rate of change was 1.25±0.09 units per year in the tiotropium group, as compared with 1.21±0.09 units in the placebo group. Repeated-measure analysis of variance was used to estimate means. Means are adjusted for baseline measurements. For FEV1 and FVC, patients with three or more acceptable pulmonary-function tests afterday 30 and no missing baseline values were included in the analysis. For the SGRQ total score, patients with two or more acceptable scores after month 6 and no missing baseline values were included in the analysis. The I bars represent standard errors, and the horizontal dashed lines represent baseline levels. Asterisks denote P<0.001, the dagger P = 0.002, and the double dagger P = 0.04. Conclusion: Tiotropium did not significantly reduce the rate of decline in FEV1, but was associated with improvements in lung function, quality of life and exacerbations during 4-year period.

45 Number of Severe Exacerbations Changes in Lung Function
Improvement in FEV1 in triple therapy group as well as less exacerbations Figure 4. Change in lung function. (A) Predose FEV1 at the clinic: visit geometric means and percentage mean change from baseline. (B) Onset of effect, measured by FEV1 at bedside in the morning at Weeks 1 and 12. BUD/FORM5 budesonide/formoterol; PBO 5 placebo; TIO 5 tiotropium. Circles represent BUD/FORM1 TIO; squares represent PBO 1 TIO. The graphs illustrate absolute pre- and postdose values at Weeks 1 and 12. The onset was calculated as change from predose to 5 and 15 minutes postdose, corresponding to differences between treatments of 70 and 90 ml, respectively, at Week 1 and 100 ml at both time points at Week 12 in favor of budesonide/formoterol added to tiotropium versus tiotropium alone (P , 0.001).

55 Pulmonary Rehabilitation
Exercise training does not improve lung function, but it does ease other manifestations of COPD, increasing exercise tolerance, reducing dyspnea, and improving quality of life. Improved skeletal-muscle function is related, in part, to a reversal of deconditioning. Exercise training improves aerobic function of the muscles of ambulation. Dyspnea is mitigated by the reduction in dynamic hyperinflation that occurs when exercise induced increases in the rate and depth of breathing result in inadequate time for full expiration, given the high expiratory airflow resistance. End-expiratory lung volume rises, and exercise is terminated when end inspiratory lung volume approaches levels at which the high elastic work of breathing causes severe dyspnea. Exercise training reduces the ventilatory requirement and respiratory rate during heavy exercise, prolonging the time allowed for expiration and reducing dynamic hyperinflation. Desensitization to dyspnea occurs centrally as a result of exercise training; the underlying mechanism is uncertain. Decreased anxiety and depression are thought to result from increased exercise capacity and consequent increases in activities of daily living, coupled with feelings of mastery. Casaburi et al. NEJM 2009;360:
