A Study Evaluating Vitamin D in Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis Complicating Asthma

על הניסוי

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a immunological pulmonary disorder caused by hypersensitive reaction to spores of Aspergillus fumigatus. The prevalence of disease is about 1-2% in asthmatics and 2-15% in patients with cystic fibrosis. The interest in ABPA stems from the fact that the disease is glucocorticoid-sensitive and early treatment can prevent progression to end-stage lung disease. Recently anti-Th2 therapies have been suggested as treatment for ABPA. Vitamin D has been shown to suppress the Th2 responses and decrease the levels of Th2 interleukins. Hence, the investigators propose to assess the role of vitamin D in treating ABPA.
