NCT00565266
Typically, people with asthma are initially prescribed a low dose of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) medication to control asthma symptoms. If a low dose of ICS is ineffective at controlling symptoms, the addition of a second controller medication is recommended. This study will examine the effectiveness of the medication tiotropium bromide combined with a low dose of ICS at maintaining asthma control in people with moderately severe asthma.

NCT03248869
Mobile health applications (MHA) are increasingly being explored as tools to assist in management of chronic diseases. Little is known regarding which characteristics of MHAs are effective and there is limited data suggesting a real-world impact on health outcomes. Asthma is one of the most common and costly of the chronic diseases, impacting a broad range of the population including both children and adults. It is a variable disease necessitating regular medication use, monitoring of symptoms, and avoidance of specific triggers. These characteristics of asthma make it a chronic disease that is particularly amenable to having an MHA facilitate active monitoring outside of periodic traditional medical visits. The study team has designed a MHA focused on asthma subjects to test the feasibility of an asthma mobile health application (AMHA). The AMHA 2.0 study is the result of a collaboration between MHA developers and Mount Sinai faculty with expertise in the fields of asthma, research design, data storage, and data analysis. AMHA 2.0 incorporated elements of usual clinical care (that may take place during typical office visits), such as medication reminders, a daily asthma diary to track asthma control (AC) and medication use, patient education and assessments of quality of life (QoL), and health care utilization (HCU).
NCT02692573
Investigators will compare 500 full term babies delivered by SCD randomized into two groups, prone or supine position. Investigators will use a Panda warmer with built in Nellcor pulse oximeter. Each infant will have heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation via pulse oximetry, respiratory rate and respiratory effort documented every 1 minute for the first 5 minutes of life; beyond the initial 5minutes of life, monitoring as well as infant's management will be done as per current Weiler hospital protocols. The intervention group will be placed in prone position for first five minutes immediately after birth, and then changed to supine position. The control group will be placed supine from birth. Investigators will check for the incidence and severity of RD, supplemental oxygen need and duration, positive pressure ventilation (PPV) need and duration or other use of respiratory support (intubation). Additionally, investigators will record the number of infants requiring admission to the NICU in each group, days of ventilatory support as well as the length of hospitalization.
NCT00605696
Acute Lung Injury/Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ALI/ARDS) is a severe lung condition that causes respiratory failure. Symptoms usually develop within 24 to 48 hours of an original injury or illness, and people with ALI/ARDS typically require care in the intensive care unit (ICU). Little is known about how to prevent the onset of ALI/ARDS. The purpose of this study is to examine if early infusions of insulin, known as intensive insulin therapy (IIT), can help prevent ALI/ARDS in hospitalized patients with high levels of blood sugars and severe infections.
NCT01086384
This study will establish the safety as well as demonstrate benefit of the addition of a LABA to an ICS by utilizing an endpoint (time to first severe asthma exacerbation) that informs on both safety and efficacy.
NCT03137784
The purpose of this trial is to characterize the bronchodilator effects and safety of 25 ug and 50 ug o.d. NVA237 (glycopyrronium bromide) doses compared to placebo in asthma patients
NCT01730027
This randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ADC3680 administered once daily as an add-on therapy to inhaled corticosteroids and when co-administered with montelukast in patients with inadequately-controlled asthma. Patients will be randomised to 3 Arms to receive ADC3680, placebo or montelukast.
NCT01000506
The purpose of this study is to show whether mepolizumab given every 4 weeks intravenously (i.v.) can reduce the frequency of asthma exacerbations in subjects with severe asthma despite receiving high doses of standard asthma medications. The study will look at different doses of mepolizumab in comparison to a placebo.
NCT00005776
Respiratory failure in term newborns is associated with increased rates of death and long-term neurodevelopmental problems. This large international multicenter trial randomized newborns who had failed to respond to intensive care, including high levels of ventilator support, to receive either inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) or 100 percent oxygen to test whether iNO would decrease their risk of dying or requiring temporary lung bypass. Infants were followed during their initial hospitalization; their outcome was assessed at 18 to 24 mos of age.
NCT00016523
This multicenter trial tested whether inhaled nitric oxide would reduce death or the need for oxygen in preterm infants (less than 34 weeks gestational age) with severe lung disease.
NCT01335932
To evaluate whether administration of ganciclovir reduces serum IL-6 levels (i.e. reduction between baseline and 14 days post-randomization) in immunocompetent adults with severe sepsis or trauma associated respiratory failure. Primary Hypotheses: \- In CMV seropositive adults with severe sepsis or trauma , pulmonary and systemic CMV reactivation amplifies and perpetuates both lung and systemic inflammation mediated through specific cytokines, and contributes to pulmonary injury and multiorgan system failure, AND \- Prevention of CMV reactivation with ganciclovir decreases pulmonary and systemic inflammatory cytokines that are important in the pathogenesis of sepsis and trauma related complications.
NCT02586506
Asthma is a chronic disease of the lungs characterized by airway inflammation, bronchoconstriction and increased airway responsiveness. Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), alone or in combination with inhaled long-acting beta-adrenergic agonists (LABA), are considered a mainstay of treatment for treatment. For inhaled medications, the choice of inhalation device is an important consideration because an inadequate technique reduces the delivery of medicines and effects of inhalation. Therefore, the development of an easy-to-use inhaler that delivers the drug to the lungs effectively, is important. This study is designed to assess the correct use of the ELLIPTA inhaler in subjects with asthma and also to assess ease of use of the ELLIPTA inhaler, as rated by those subjects determined to be using the inhaler correctly. Study will be divided into two visits i.e. Screening/Visit 1 (day 1) and Visit 2 (Day 28 +/-2) with a phone call on Day 8+/-2 days of Visit 1 to assess safety. In this multi-center, single-arm, randomised (to receive one of two versions of the ELLIPTA inhaler Ease of Use questionnaires), open-label, placebo study, only subjects who are have never used the ELLIPTA inhaler before and have an established diagnosis of asthma and receiving asthma therapy and are able to demonstrate correct use of the ELLIPTA inhaler at Visit 1 will be considered eligible to participate in this study. Approximately 252 subjects will be screened with an expectation of 208 subjects completing the study while demonstrating correct ELLIPTA inhaler use at visit 2.

NCT02066129
The objective of this study is to determine whether, in children receiving low-dose inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), quintupling the dose of inhaled corticosteroids at the onset of symptoms previously associated with upper respiratory illnesses and subsequent asthma exacerbations reduces the rate of severe asthma exacerbations treated with oral corticosteroids.
NCT02230332
Beta-2-agonists are effective in reducing airway narrowing in asthma and protecting against stimuli that produce bronchoconstriction. The combination of long-acting beta agonists (LABA) and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) has become the most commonly used asthma controller medication class in the United States, but unfortunately, even when LABAs are added to ICS and used regularly, 58-81% of patients with asthma fail to achieve total control. Regular use of beta-agonists, both short and long-acting, reduces the ability of these agents to protect against the airway narrowing that occurs in asthma in response to bronchoconstrictor stimuli. We refer to this reduced effect as loss of bronchoprotection. In this proof of concept trial we aim to determine if alendronate, which diminishes beta-2 adrenergic receptor internalization, can reduce the loss of bronchoprotection that occurs with regular use of LABAs, even when used in combination with ICS.
NCT02794519
Sirukumab is a fully human anti interleukin (IL)-6 immunoglobulin G1-kappa monoclonal antibody (MAb) which is in development for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The continuing unmet need in subjects with asthma refractory to corticosteroid therapy and increased understanding of asthma pathogenesis have stimulated the development of targeted biologics based on predictive biomarkers. The majority of approaches to date have targeted T Helper 2 (Th2) cytokines or their downstream effects. Targeting IL-6 in severe asthma represents an unprecedented approach that has potential to address non-Th2 drivers of severe asthma. This multicenter, randomized, double-blind (sponsor-unblind), placebo-controlled, parallel group study will investigate the efficacy of sirukumab compared to placebo in subjects having uncontrolled severe asthma despite use of high dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) in combination with long-acting Beta-agonist (LABA). The study will employ a variable treatment period for individual subjects. Dosing will continue every 4 weeks until week 44 (inclusive), or until 24 weeks after the final subject has been randomized, whichever the sooner. Upon receiving the final dose of study medicine or placebo, subjects will enter a 16 week Follow Up period. Overall, the duration of participation for subjects who complete the full 44-week treatment period and Follow Up period may be up to 64 weeks. Approximately 175 subjects will be randomized such that 140 evaluable subjects complete the study.
NCT02918071
The purpose of the study is to assess functionality, performance, and reliability of an single-use auto-injector (AI) with benralizumab administered subcutaneously (SC) in an at-home setting reported by the patient or caregiver, and to confirm the safety and clinical benefit of benralizumab administration in asthma patients with severe asthma
