Abstract Text
The overall objective of the Feasibility of Retinoic Acid Treatment in Emphysema (FORTE) study is to conduct preliminary studies at 5 clinical centers preparatory to conducting a randomized, controlled, clinical trial on the efficacy of retinoic acid therapy in the management of emphysema. Objectives are to identify optimal patient populations, drugs and dosing schedules, and outcome measures for a large study, if indicated. This project serves as a clinical center for the study.

Publications
Publications are associated with projects, but cannot be identified with any particular year of the project or fiscal year of funding. This is due to the continuous and cumulative nature of knowledge generation across the life of a project and the sometimes long and variable publishing timeline. Similarly, for multi-component projects, publications are associated with the parent core project and not with individual sub-projects.
