NCT02808819
The purpose of this study is to continue to characterize the safety profile of benralizumab administration and monitor the pharmacodynamic activity of the drug in those asthma patients who remain on treatment for at least 16 weeks and not more than 40 weeks in the predecessor study D3250C00021 (BORA, NCT02258542).
NCT04332991
ORCHID is a multicenter, blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial evaluating hydroxychloroquine for the treatment of adults hospitalized with COVID-19. Patients, treating clinicians, and study personnel will all be blinded to study group assignment.
NCT00990119
The aim of this study is to see if the Vapotherm High Flow Therapy (HFT) device is effective to provide breathing support to patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease or COPD. The investigators believe that patients using HFT will not require as much use of therapies that provide pressure through a face mask, and are already recognized by FDA as support therapies for respiratory insufficiency.
NCT01784991
This is a study about the efficiency and safety of a 1mg+1mg hydromorphone pain management protocol for the treatment of moderate to sever pain in the Emergency Department. Appropriate patients 60 years and older who present with a condition that causes moderate to severe pain, according to the attending physician's judgment, in which the physician would order the use of parenteral analgesia will be enrolled in one of two study arms, "1+1" versus usual care group. 1+1 patients will receive 1mg hydromorphone followed by another 1mg after 15 minutes if pain persists. Usual care group patients will have pain treated per the discretion of the attending physician. Respiratory status, vital signs, and pain scores will be monitor to assess the efficiency of pain control as well as the safety of pain medicine administration in terms of respiratory depression.
NCT02258542
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety profile of benralizumab administration in asthma patients who have completed one of the three predecessor studies: D3250C00017, D3250C00018 or D3250C00020.
NCT01253603
This study will assess the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of QAW039 in steroid-free patients with mild to moderate persistent asthma.
NCT01202279
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with Mucinex D lowers the use of antibiotics in the treatment of upper respiratory infection when compared to placebo
NCT01628523
Despite its life-saving potential, the mechanical ventilator has great potential to do harm. Despite years of research, the mortality in acute lung injury (ALI) remains very high. Treatment options after ALI onset are very limited, therefore prevention may be the best option. Unfortunately, the emergency department has not been studied with respect to mechanical ventilation practices, and its contribution to ALI is unknown. The investigators hypothesize that mechanical ventilation is frequently used in the ED and for a variety of reasons, and that ED mechanical ventilation has an effect on long term outcomes.
NCT01437735
This study aims to demonstrate a clinically significant improvement in Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) in moderate to severe allergic asthmatics inadequately controlled by Inhaled Corticosteroid (ICS) therapy. Patients will be treated with QAW039, an active comparator, or placebo. This will be a randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging, multi-centre trial.
NCT02554786
The purpose of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different doses of QMF149 (QMF149 150/160 µg and QMF149 150/320 µg via Concept1) over two respective MF doses (MF 400 µg and MF 800 µg via Twisthaler® (total daily dose)) in poorly controlled asthmatic participants as determined by pulmonary function testing, and effects on asthma control
NCT03281876
The purpose of this study is to test if the vaccine is working well in COPD patients aged 40 to 80 years old to reduce episodes of worsening symptoms ("exacerbations") and to gather further information on safety and immune response. In the current study, COPD patients with a history of acute exacerbations will receive 2 doses of the investigational vaccine or placebo intramuscularly according to a 0, 2 month vaccination schedule, in addition to standard care. The effect of vaccination against two pathogens known to cause exacerbations (Non-typeable Haemophilus influenza \[NTHi\] and Moraxella catarrhalis \[Mcat\]) will be evaluated at pre-defined timepoints (scheduled study visits). In addition to the scheduled study visits, additional study visit(s) and/ or phone contact(s) will take place for each acute exacerbation of COPD occurring from first vaccination up to study conclusion.
NCT03096314
Vitamin D deficiency is a common, potentially reversible contributor to morbidity and mortality among critically ill patients. We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial of early vitamin D3 supplementation in critically ill, vitamin D-deficient patients who were at high risk for death. Patients screened as vitamin D deficient (\<20 ng/mL) were randomized. Randomization occurred within 12 hours after the decision to admit the patient to an intensive care unit. Eligible patients received a single enteral dose of 540,000 IU of vitamin D3 or matched placebo. The primary end point was 90-day all-cause, all-location mortality.
NCT02135692
This is a multi-center, open-label, long-term study of subcutaneously (SC) administered mepolizumab 100mg in addition to standard of care (SOC), in subjects with severe eosinophilic asthma. This study will enroll a subset of subjects from Study MEA115661 who have demonstrated clear benefit from therapy and who without continuation of mepolizumab therapy are individuals at greatest risk of serious deterioration of their health status. In order to target individuals at greatest risk for serious deterioration of their health status, only subjects from the MEA115661 study with a history of life-threatening or seriously debilitating asthma, will be allowed to participate. Subjects meeting all of the eligibility criteria for the study will be offered the opportunity to consent for this study of up to 128 weeks in length (including the Follow-Up Visit). This study will give opportunity to extend the collection of clinical data for long-term use and further assess the sustainability of efficacy in a population likely to experience significant loss of asthma control and the need for higher doses of systemic steroids if returned to SOC only.
NCT04540185
In this randomized double blind Phase 3 clinical trial we will study the efficacy and safety of oral polio vaccine with and without NA-831 versus placebo.
NCT01130064
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of 24 weeks intravenous treatment with QAX576 in patients with persistent asthma not adequately controlled with inhaled corticosteroids and long acting beta2-agonists.
NCT03528577
To Evaluate the Pharmacodynamic Equivalence of Albuterol Sulfate Inhalation Aerosol, eq 90 mcg base (Sun Pharmaceuticals Industries Limited) to PROAIR® HFA (albuterol sulfate) Inhalation Aerosol, eq 90 mcg base (Teva Respiratory, LLC) in Subjects With Stable, Mild Asthma
NCT03243292
To confirm the long-term efficacy and safety of Bronchial Thermoplasty (BT) at 10 years follow-up or beyond in subjects previously enrolled in any of the following Boston Scientific-sponsored, controlled pre-approval studies: AIR, RISA and AIR2.
NCT02224157
The purpose of this study is to test if Symbicort (budesonide/formoterol) Turbuhaler is effective in treating asthma when used 'as needed' in patients with milder asthma. The efficacy of Symbicort 'as needed' will be compared with Pulmicort (budesonide) Turbuhaler twice daily plus terbutaline Turbuhaler 'as needed'
NCT02892019
This study is designed to explore lung function effects of two doses of indacaterol acetate, 75 μg and 150 μg, in pediatric asthma patients 6-11 years old, and to compare the systemic exposure to indacaterol in plasma with historical data in adults, to identify an appropriate dose to Phase III evaluation.
NCT03771040
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of masitinib (6 mg/kg/day) in severe persistent asthma, uncontrolled with high dose of inhaled corticosteroid and with elevated eosinophil levels.
