NCT02634268
Symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and high body mass index (BMI) overlap. The investigators are trying to find out if a program proven to help people lose a modest amount of weight and increase their physical activity will improve COPD symptoms for those with a high BMI. The program uses a series of video sessions and self-study handouts focused on healthy eating and increasing physical activity, and encourages participants to monitor their weight, diet, and physical activity for one year. For those who want to, they will be able to work with a health coach to help meet weight and activity goals. We hope that the program will lead to improved exercise tolerance, body weight, dyspnea, generic health-related quality of life, and major cardiovascular risk factors (central obesity by waist circumference, Framingham Risk Score, and blood pressure) through 12 months of follow-up. To be in the study, participants will need to have COPD, high BMI, history of smoking, shortness of breath, and be at least 40 years old.
NCT02178722

NCT02922881
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease primarily involving the colon and has long been considered to be due to a dysregulated immune response targeting the colon, and involves unknown environmental factors. Currently, no effective therapy targets the microbiota or its interaction with the colonic epithelium. Diet has a significant impact on the composition of the microbiota; however, no dietary intervention to date has proven effective for induction of remission. The primary objective of this study is to determine whether the Ulcerative Colitis Diet (UCD) can induce remission or response in pediatric UC patients with active mild to moderate UC on a stable medication.
NCT02315469
This research trial studies comprehensive patient questionnaires in predicting complications in older patients with gynecologic cancer undergoing surgery. Comprehensive patient questionnaires completed before surgery may help identify complications, such as the need for assistance in taking medications, decreased mobility, decreased social activity, and falls, and may improve outcomes for older patients with gynecologic cancer.
NCT03391141
This study aims to validate whether the pattern of airway collapse recorded during Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE) mirrors that of natural sleep, and to develop a model for airway collapse. Sensors will be placed in subjects' upper airways during DISE and then during in-lab sleep studies. The sleep study results will be compared with OR findings to create an aerodynamic model for natural sleep and to assess whether airway observations during DISE were valid representations of natural sleep.
NCT02435992
The purpose of this study is to determine whether RPC1063 is effective in the treatment of Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
NCT01507987
The Cardiac Lead Assessment Study (CLAS) is designed as a prospective, non-randomized, multi-center, international postmarket surveillance study under 522 Order PS120111 (August 16, 2012).
NCT04496908
This randomized controlled trial of consenting women undergoing induction of labor with combined combination Foley catheter and pharmacologic cervical ripening seeks to efficacy of early amniotomy. This project will include 157 women presenting at Christiana Care Health System. Women will be included if they are at least 37 weeks gestation, have a singleton pregnancy, have intact membranes and are undergoing an induction of labor using a Foley catheter combined with either misoprostol or pitocin. Following admission, women will be randomized into either early or delayed amniotomy Women will be randomized with equal probability to the intervention group using block randomization stratified by party. Prior to discharge from the hospital, baseline demographic and clinical data will be obtained via chart review
NCT01346969
The study will investigate the efficacy of various doses and regimens of EXC 001 in reducing skin scarring in subjects undergoing revision of scars from prior surgery. The study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of EXC 001 and placebo.
NCT02636946
This study will evaluate the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effect and safety of Bimatoprost SR compared with selective laser trabeculoplasty in participants with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who are not adequately managed with topical IOP-lowering medication for reasons other than medication efficacy (e.g., due to intolerance or nonadherence).
NCT03474081
COPD is a progressive disease characterized by increasing obstruction to airflow and the progressive development of respiratory symptoms including chronic cough, increased sputum production, dyspnea and wheezing. Once-daily triple therapy of an Inhaled Corticosteroid/ Long-acting Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists/ Long Acting Beta-Agonist (ICS/LAMA/LABA) that is combination of FF/UMEC/VI in a single device is being developed with the aim of providing a new treatment option for the management of advanced COPD. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate lung function and health related quality of life (HRQoL) after 84 days of treatment with a single inhaler triple therapy combination of FF/ UMEC/VI once daily via the ELLIPTA® dry powder inhaler (DPI) compared with tiotropium once daily via HANDIHALER®, in subjects with COPD. Subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive FF/UMEC/VI or tiotropium in the morning for 84 days. Subjects will also receive albuterol/salbutamol as a rescue therapy throughout the study. Approximately 848 subjects with advanced COPD will be enrolled in the study. The total study duration will be approximately 17 weeks including, 4-week run-in period, 12-week treatment period and a 1-week follow-up period. ELLIPTA is a registered trademark of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) group of companies. HANDIHALER and RESPIMAT are registered trademarks of Boeringher Ingelheim.
NCT03269695

NCT03688074
A phase 2, multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the effect of tezepelumab on airway inflammation in adults with inadequately controlled asthma.
NCT02344108
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects up to 1% of the general pediatric population and is associated with adverse behavior and quality of life, as well as long term cardiopulmonary system complications. Trisomy 21 (Down Syndrome) is the most common chromosomal disorder, with a incidence of approximately 1 per 660-800 births. Patients with Down Syndrome have a higher incidence of OSA than the general pediatric population, with rates of 30-60%, resulting in increased morbidity and decreased quality of life for affected individuals. In children, adenotonsillectomy (T\&A) is often a contributing factor to OSA, and adenotonsillectomy is a first line treatment. Children with Down Syndrome often undergo T\&A for obstructive sleep apnea, however 30-50% will have persistent obstructive sleep patterns requiring continuous positive pressure airway support (CPAP) or tracheotomy. Persistent obstruction is attributed to anatomic and physiologic differences in this population, including reduced muscular tone, macroglossia, maxillary hypoplasia, and lingual tonsil hypertrophy. This pilot study is designed to determine if the Inspire® Upper Airway Simulation System, Model 3024 IPG, and any subsequent iteration thereof that are approved under P130008 for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea, which has already been approved for use in adults with OSA, can be safely implanted and used in adolescents and young adults with Down Syndrome.
NCT02522780
The purpose of this trial was to investigate the safety and efficacy of mesalamine 2 g extended release granules (sachet) once a day (QD) for maintenance of clinical and endoscopic remission in subjects with UC. The duration of treatment for each subject was 6 months.
NCT04084990
This study aims to evaluate the association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and fetal growth restriction (FGR) and to assess the role of auto-titrated positive airway pressure (aPAP) as antenatal therapy in these patients. Pregnant patients with diagnosed FGR will be screened for OSA first by screening questionnaire and then by home sleep monitor. Of those patients diagnosed with OSA, half will be assigned to use aPAP each night when sleeping and half will not (standard care).
NCT02790138
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of vedolizumab intravenous (IV) and placebo in terms of the percentage of participants with chronic or recurrent pouchitis achieving clinically relevant remission.
NCT02315144
The primary objective of the study is to characterize the safety profile and duration of bronchodilation of a single dose of inhaled TV48108.
NCT02365480
This randomized, pilot phase I trial studies the side effects of berberine chloride in treating patients with ulcerative colitis and who are in remission (a decrease in or disappearance of signs and symptoms of cancer) to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer. Patients with ulcerative colitis are at increased risk for colorectal cancer. Chemoprevention is the use of drugs, such as berberine chloride, to keep a disease/condition from forming or coming back. The use of berberine chloride may keep colorectal cancer from forming in patients with ulcerative colitis.
