The goal of this clinical trial is to help adolescents and young adults between the ages of 13-25 with Cystic Fibrosis (CF), medically stable, able to speak and read English, and are not experiencing a CF - related exacerbation, who are already active to remain, or gradually encourage them to increase their levels of physical activity Participants will be asked to utilize a smartphone program, called NUDGE that we have developed. NUDGE is a chatbot with evidence-based features known to help teens make progress toward health goal: * Set and review goals * Self-monitor progress * Provide feedback on goal attainment * Revise future goals
NCT07454681
This study is being done to determine whether MRI can produce high quality lung and airway images in healthy and CF patients and if MRI can be used to evaluate size and shape of the airways with computer assistance. This study will also repeat MRI experiments two years after the initial MRI scan to see if changes to airway size and shape are seen over time. In a subset of participants, we will investigate whether MRI results are repeatable and reproducible in the short-term one week after the initial MRI visit. This study will help understand if MRI based measurements of airway size and shape can be used as a monitoring tool that does not use x-ray radiation in patients with CF.
NCT07442682
This research project aims to better understand the consequences of diabetes on the quality of life, respiratory function, and nutritional status of patients with cystic fibrosis followed at a Belgian reference center and to compare the quality of life of patients with cystic fibrosis depending on whether or not they have diabetes.
NCT07108153
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of SION-719 when given to people with CF who are already taking Trikafta.
NCT07303621
Cystic fibrosis is a rare, progressive genetic disease caused by a mutation in the CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene. Respiratory and nutritional effects are crucial to patients' prognosis. Since the early years of 2010, etiological treatment has been based on the use of CFTRm (CFTR modulator), which aim to restore the function of the mutated protein. Initially used as monotherapy and targeting a limited number of patients, CFTRm has gradually been extended to a larger number of patients, to the point where it now concerns 9 out of 10 patients, through the use of triple therapy with Elexacaftor-Tezacaftor-Ivacaftro (ETI) or Kaftrio(R). The efficacy of triple therapy is spectacular, revolutionizing the prognosis of the disease. However, the potential for neuropsychological side-effects (20-50% depending on age, but more frequent in young children under 5) and hepatic side-effects (hepatic cytolysis) must be taken into account. A better understanding of pharmacokinetic variability in children, as well as the relationship between exposure to therapeutic effects and adverse reactions, is therefore particularly important. The aim of this study is to measure the association between the pharmacokinetic parameters of Elexacaftor, Tezacaftor and Ivacaftor (plasma clearance and volume of distribution) and therapeutic or adverse effects in pediatric patients with cystic fibrosis treated with the combination.
NCT07417267
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether using a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) air purifier can improve respiratory health in children and adults with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) or Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD). The main questions it aims to answer are: Can using a HEPA air purifier at home reduce respiratory symptoms in people with CF or PCD? Can it improve lung function and overall health? Researchers will compare participants' health outcomes before and after the use of the HEPA air purifier to see if cleaner indoor air makes a measurable difference. Participants will: Visit the clinic for baseline health assessments (such as lung function and symptom questionnaires). Have two HEPA air purifiers installed in their home. One device will be placed in the main living area and one in the bedroom. Undergo exposure assessments during home visits to measure indoor air quality.
NCT07314229
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder affecting the entire body and associated with respiratory exacerbations, impaired quality of life and reduced life expectancy. The therapeutic management of cystic fibrosis has been profoundly changed by the recent arrival of a combination of highly effective cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators, Elexacaftor-Tezacaftor-Ivacaftor (ETI), which improve quality of life, respiratory function and reducing the number of exacerbations. The impact of these treatments on exercise adaptation has not been clearly identified. The main objective is to estimate the prevalence of ventilatory reserve amputation during submaximal exercise testing assessed by the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) in patients with cystic fibrosis treated with ETIs.
NCT07304362
This randomized controlled experimental study is planned to examine the effect of an online education program provided to school-age children aged 6-11 years diagnosed with cystic fibrosis and their parents on health literacy levels. The study population will consist of 123 school-age children with cystic fibrosis and their parents who are followed at the Cystic Fibrosis Outpatient Clinic of Marmara University Pendik Training and Research Hospital. The study sample will include 104 children and their parents, who will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group (n = 52) or the control group (n = 52). Data will be collected using the Introductory Information Form, the Health Literacy Scale for School-Age Children, and the Turkey Health Literacy Scale-32. Following the pre-test assessments, an online education program developed by the researcher will be delivered to the intervention group. The control group will not receive any additional intervention. Both groups will complete post-test assessments four weeks after the pre-test.
NCT07163078
The goal of this study is to learn if one nutrition supplement formula works better than a different formula in adults with cystic fibrosis. The main question being addressed is: Will certain atypical versions of certain nutrients outperform typical versions of these nutrients? This will be determined by examining blood measures of nutrient levels and/or indications of nutrient function indicators pre- and post-intervention. Participants will take the supplements for 6 weeks with a blood draw before and after that time.
NCT07148362
The number of studies evaluating respiratory functions and upper extremity functional exercise capacity in patients with CF and PCD is limited in the literature. There are no studies comparing upper extremity functional exercise capacity and upper extremity muscle oxygenation in patients with CF and PCD. The aim of our study is to compare respiratory function, upper extremity functional exercise capacity, peripheral muscle strength, muscle oxygenation, and balance in CF, PCD, and healthy children.
NCT07035990
The purpose of Parts D and E of this Phase 1 study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of multiple dose combinations of SION-451 and complementary modulators SION-2222 and SION-109 in healthy participants.
NCT07027553
With advances in genetic therapies, many people with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) are living longer. With the improvement in life expectancy has emerged an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Factors such as insulin resistance, reduced physical activity, rising blood pressure from newer medications, and changes in body mass index have made cardiovascular health a growing concern in CF care. This study aims to assess whether a remotely delivered, monitored exercise programme can increase physical activity levels in adults with CF. Secondary outcomes will explore whether the intervention improves key CVD risk factors. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a control group or an intervention group, which will complete an 8-week home-based aerobic and resistance exercise programme. Exercise intensity will be tailored using the Rate of Perceived Exertion scale. Key outcomes include weekly physical activity levels, body mass index, waist circumference, lung function (spirometry) and blood biomarkers. Home-based capillary blood tests, analysed pre- and post-intervention, will measure cholesterol, lipid profiles, inflammation and other relevant hormones.
NCT05818319
In cystic fibrosis (CF) renal base excretion is impaired, due to mutations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator (CFTR) gene, since CFTR function is crucial in regulation of the kidney's HCO3- excretion. The investigators suggest that challenged urine HCO3- excretion is a biomarker of CFTR function, which can be used to evaluate the extent of CFTR dysfunction and the possible correcting effects of CFTR modulating therapy. This study aims to evaluate changes in challenged urine HCO3- excretion in CF patients, who are currently in treatment with the triple CFTR modulator combination therapy, Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI), before, during, and after a short treatment pause.
