NCT04963764
This pilot study will evaluate study processes and feasibility of a future large-scale clinical trial that proposes to test whether low-risk children managed as outpatients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and procalcitonin (PCT) levels \<0.25 ng/mL treated with placebo have a similar clinical response to those treated with antibiotics and fewer adverse effects.
NCT04379544
This is a protocol-driven observational study of lung ultrasound and focused echocardiography images obtained in the Emergency Department (ED) and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) settings as a part of existing standard of care. The objectives of this study are as follows: 1. To characterize various clinical and cardiopulmonary ultrasound findings and describe their relationship with the clinical course of patients with COVID-19 in the ED and ICU. 2. To describe, develop, and validate a prediction tool that can accurately predict the need for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) and acute respiratory failure in COVID-19 patients using clinical, laboratory, and ultrasound data.

NCT05077969
This study is designed to test the efficacy and safety of combinations of two well-understood agents - famotidine and celecoxib. Each of these agents separately demonstrate clinical activity in mitigating COVID-19 disease symptoms or severity, and each of which appear to have separate and complementary mechanisms of action.
NCT04410523
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of multiple CSJ117 doses (0.5; 1; 2; 4 and 8 mg) inhaled once daily compared with placebo, when added to standard-of-care (SoC) asthma therapy in adult patients with uncontrolled asthma with respect to change from baseline in FEV1 at the end of 12 weeks of treatment.
NCT04388813
This is a longitudinal, multi-center, observational study collecting diverse biological measurements and clinical and epidemiological data for the purpose of enabling a greater understanding of the onset of severe outcomes, primarily acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and/or mortality, in patients presenting to the hospital with suspicion or diagnosis of COVID-19. We seek to understand whether there are early signatures that predict progression to ARDS, mortality, and/or other comorbid conditions. The duration of the study participation is approximately 3 months.
NCT04517695
In patients with SARS-CoV-2 or bacterial infection admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), the state of the intravascular volume, the characteristics of the blood volume components, and the development of a vascular leak is currently unknown. The relationship of these parameters with parameters of cardiac performance, lung edema and sublingual microcirculatory perfusion parameters have never been studied.
NCT05319236
Subjects will use the Gabi system on a daily basis for 3 months, each time the subject is resting or asleep. The Gabi system will recording the SpO2, pulse rate, respiratory rate and movements of the subject. The objective of this study is to perform a first assessment of the range of most potentially clinically relevant indications for use of the Gabi system for children \< 6 years old with underlying medical conditions. This is performed by asking HCPs to review the data measured by the Gabi system after taking a medical decision independently from the Gabi data and to assess the potential clinical utility of the Gabi system. The usability of the system will also be assessed throughout questionnaires filled out by the HCPs and by the caregivers. \*During this study, the data collected by the Gabi system are not intended to be used by caregivers or HCPs to take any (medical) decisions.
NCT03213184
The environment during the prenatal period and in early life is a major contributor to the risk of developing childhood asthma. Birth cohort studies from single research centers have identified several factors that affect the risk for developing childhood asthma, including being exposed in early life to allergens, pollutants, viruses and bacteria, and psychosocial stress. Despite such advances, further progress in understanding the root causes of asthma have been hampered by the small size of previous studies, which makes it difficult to: 1) identify asthma risk factors with certainty, 2) know how environmental factors across the United States (U.S.) affect asthma, and 3) whether there are critical ages when pregnant mothers, infants and young children are particularly susceptible to these influences. Furthermore, different research groups tend to use different methods to study asthma, making it difficult to either compare or pool findings. One other challenge is that there are several types (i.e. phenotypes, endotypes) of childhood asthma, but these are poorly understood. To help overcome these challenges, investigators leading 12 asthma birth cohorts across the U.S. have established the Children's Respiratory Research Workgroup (CREW) consortium. CREW proposes to identify specific types of childhood asthma, develop an understanding of what early life environmental influences cause these different types of asthma and when, and identify targets for future efforts aimed at preventing childhood asthma.
NCT03471247
Patients who survive critical illness usually experience long-lasting physical and psychological impairments, which are often debilitating. Rehabilitation interventions started in the ICU may reduce this morbidity. In-bed cycling, which uses a special bicycle that attaches to the hospital bed, allows critically ill patients who are mechanically ventilated (MV) to gently exercise their legs while in the ICU. The main goal of this study is to determine whether critically ill MV adults recover faster if they receive early in-bed cycling than if they do not. Another objective is to determine whether in-bed cycling is a cost-effective intervention. 360 patients admitted to the ICU and receiving MV will be enrolled in the study. Following informed consent, patients will be randomized to either (1) early in-bed cycling and routine physiotherapy or (2) routine physiotherapy alone. Patients' strength and physical function will be measured throughout the study. If early in-bed cycling during critical illness improves short-term physical and functional outcomes, it could accelerate recovery and reduce long-term disability in ICU survivors.
NCT04629703
The study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-center, Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fostamatinib in COVID-19 subjects.
NCT04933968
A study to evaluate ALVR106; an allogeneic, off-the-shelf multi-virus specific T cell therapy that targets four community acquired respiratory viruses: respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), influenza, human metapneumovirus (hMPV), and/or parainfluenza virus (PIV) following hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) and solid organ transplant (SOT).
NCT05757908
The goal of this interventional study is to compare at-home mobile spirometry to in-clinic spirometry in participants with moderate asthma while taking a long-acting beta agonist (LABA). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do at-home mobile spirometry and in-clinic spirometry assessments show a similar treatment effect (measured changes in FEV1) with the addition of LABA? * Is at-home mobile spirometry as accurate as in-clinic spirometry in showing treatment effects (changes in FEV1)? Participants will be asked to: * Take standard of care LABA treatment once or twice a day * Complete at-home mobile spirometry testing twice a day * Complete asthma questionnaires twice a day * Complete device use questionnaires * Wear a wrist device (like a watch) to track physical activity and vital signs * Visit the clinic for in-clinic spirometry testing once a week for 8 weeks

Up to approximately 80 sites globally will participate in this study. Approximately 228 participants will be randomized to 3 treatment groups in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive MEDI3506 dose 1, MEDI3506 dose 2, or placebo.
NCT02871856
People who may be at increased risk of lung cancer due to age and smoking history will be invited to participate in this international study to determine the best way of using computed tomography (CT) of the chest to screen for early lung cancer. Overseas data show that CT screening (screening tests can find diseases early, when they're easier to treat) can reduce deaths from lung cancer and this study will help determine who is most likely benefit from screening.
NCT06147674
The goal of this observational study is to compare pulmonary health parameter measurements from the VQm PHM™ to existing clinical measurements. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Confirm the performance of non-invasive pulmonary health parameter shunt fraction value found on the VQm PHM™ when compared to available reference measurements. * Confirm the performance of non-invasive pulmonary health parameter pulmonary blood flow, functional residual capacity and physiological dead space found on the VQm PHM™ when compared to available reference measurements.
