NCT01728220
This is a placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel, randomized, two-part, dose-confirming clinical study characterizing the pharmacodynamic effects of pulsed iNO using the combination product, inhaled nitric oxide/INOpulse DS-C vs. placebo in subjects with World Health Organization (WHO) Group 3 pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) on Long Term Oxygen Therapy (LTOT).
NCT03546907
Primary Objective: To investigate effects of SAR440340 (anti-interleukin-33 \[IL-33\] monoclonal antibody \[mAb\]) compared with placebo, on the annualized rate of moderate-to-severe acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) over up to 52 weeks of treatment. * Moderate exacerbations were recorded by the Investigator and defined as AECOPD that require either systemic corticosteroids (such as intramuscular, intravenous or oral) and/or antibiotics. * Severe exacerbations were recorded by the Investigator and defined as AECOPD requiring hospitalization, emergency medical care visit or resulting in death. Secondary Objectives: To investigate effects of SAR440340 compared with placebo, on improving respiratory function, as assessed by pre-bronchodilator forced exploratory volume in 1 second (FEV1). To evaluate effects of SAR440340 compared with placebo, on post-bronchodilator FEV1. To evaluate effects of SAR440340 compared with placebo, on duration from baseline to first moderate or severe AECOPD event. To evaluate effects of SAR440340 compared with placebo, on safety and tolerability.
NCT03255057
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of using the Hemolung RAS to provide low-flow extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) as an alternative or adjunct to invasive mechanical ventilation for patients who require respiratory support due to an acute exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). It is hypothesized that the Hemolung RAS can be safely used to avoid or reduce time on invasive mechanical ventilation compared to COPD patients treated with standard-of-care mechanical ventilation alone. Eligible patients will be randomized to receive lung support with either the Hemolung RAS plus standard-of-care mechanical ventilation, or standard-of-care mechanical ventilation alone.
NCT03084796
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dose-response of different doses of CHF 5259 pMDI on lung function and other clinical outcomes, to identify the optimal dose(s) in terms of benefit/ risk ratio for further development in the target subject population.
NCT02138916
The purpose of the study is to determine if benralizumab reduces COPD exacerbation rate in symptomatic patients with moderate to very severe COPD who are receiving standard of care therapies
NCT02988388
The LTRC will facilitate histopathological research of pulmonary diseases by collecting lung tissues from donors and preparing and distributing collections of tissue specimens to researchers within and outside the LTRC. Collections of specimens will be linked to individual clinical data appropriate to the particular disease. The primary goal of the LTRC is to identify participants with suspected lung cancer or metastatic disease who are willing to provide informed consent for research use of their specimens and data. Secondarily, the LTRC investigators intend to collect clinical data, limited exposure data, physiologic studies, and radiographic studies from these participants.
NCT02864342
A randomized clinical study to assess the impact of Symbicort® pMDI medication reminders on adherence in COPD patients
NCT02487498
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the efficacy of the combination product QVA149 is similar to the efficacy of the combination product umeclidinium/vilanterol on a pre-specified endpoint of FEV1 AUC0-24h while maintaining an acceptable safety profile.
NCT04535986
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ensifentrine in patients with moderate to severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
NCT02238483
The purpose of this study is to determine whether AZD7624 can reduce acute Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) exacerbations in patients on COPD maintenance therapy with a history of frequent acute exacerbations.
NCT02596087
The overall goal of the IQ-MAPLE project is to improve the quality of care provided to patients with several heart, lung and blood conditions by facilitating more accurate and complete problem list documentation. In the first aim, the investigators will design and validate a series of problem inference algorithms, using rule-based techniques on structured data in the electronic health record (EHR) and natural language processing on unstructured data. Both of these techniques will yield candidate problems that the patient is likely to have, and the results will be integrated. In Aim 2, the investigators will design clinical decision support interventions in the EHRs of the four study sites to alert physicians when a candidate problem is detected that is missing from the patient's problem list - the clinician will then be able to accept the alert and add the problem, override the alert, or ignore it entirely. In Aim 3, the investigators will conduct a randomized trial and evaluate the effect of the problem list alert on three endpoints: alert acceptance, problem list addition rate and clinical quality.
NCT02505035
This is a large pragmatic, randomized controlled trial to test the real-world effectiveness of inpatient palliative care consultative services in improving a number of patient- and family-centered processes and outcomes of care among seriously ill hospitalized patients. The investigators hypothesize that improved patient-centered outcomes can be achieved without higher costs by simply changing the default option for inpatient palliative care consultation for eligible patients from an opt-in to an opt-out system. To test this hypothesis the investigators will conduct a clinical trial at 11 hospitals using the same electronic health record within Ascension Health, the largest non-profit health system in the U.S.
NCT02347761
This is a trial of 12 weeks of treatment with nebulized SUN-101 using an Investigational eFlow® Closed System (CS) nebulizer in subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD 2014) guidelines.
NCT03137992
The purpose of this study is to show bioequivalence of test product to reference product based on baseline-adjusted forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1).
NCT02552732
The aim of this feasibility study is to provide data for a subsequent randomized controlled trial to investigate if patient outcomes will be improved after an acute COPD exacerbation using domiciliary nasal high flow therapy (NHF) compared to standard care. This feasibility study will investigate the following: process, resources, management and scientific aspects of delivering NHF as an adjunct therapy in COPD patients.
NCT02343458
A chronic dosing (24 weeks) study to assess the efficacy and safety GFF MDI; PT003), FF MDI; PT005, and GP MDI; PT001) in subjects with moderate to very severe COPD, compared with placebo.
NCT02632552
Transition from hospital to home places patients in jeopardy of adverse events and increases their risk for rehospitalization. CHF is the most prevalent chronic condition among U.S. adults and COPD is the third leading cause of death in the U.S. Both CHF and COPD represent significant burdens for the VHA healthcare system. Care transitions can be supported through multi-component interventions, but are costly to implement. Virtual nurses provide an effective medium for explaining health concepts to patients, and previous work indicates patients find virtual nurses acceptable. The investigators will implement and evaluate a virtual nurse intervention to provide automated, tailored, and timely support to Veterans transitioning from hospital to home. As effective care transition interventions incorporate both inpatient and outpatient components, the virtual nurse will first engage with patient onscreen during their inpatient stay and then via text message post-discharge. This project has the potential to improve the care transition experience for patients, caregivers and healthcare providers.
NCT00570778
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of QVA149 in patients with moderate to severe COPD.
NCT02315144
The primary objective of the study is to characterize the safety profile and duration of bronchodilation of a single dose of inhaled TV48108.
NCT04928417
Observational, cross-sectional study with retrospective data collection from medical records. During the cross-sectional study visit, data will be captured through the use of electronic Case Report Forms (eCRFs). As there will be only one study visit, no prospective data collection will take place, nor collection of data that are not part of the routine clinic visit. For understanding the burden of severe exacerbations of COPD and the association between frequency of severe exacerbations and clinical and health-care utilization outcomes in less well-resourced countries
