The purpose of the study is to investigate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the integrated care program of a statutory health insurance offering additional homeopathic treatment to their members
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of different doses and regimens of dupilumab in patients with moderate to severe uncontrolled asthma Secondary Objective: To evaluate different doses and regimens of dupilumab in patients with moderate to severe uncontrolled asthma, with regard to: - Safety and tolerability - Dupilumab systemic exposure and anti-drug antibodies
Influenza disease causes significant morbidity and mortality in the Unites States each year. Although influenza can cause morbidity in otherwise healthy individuals, adults with chronic lung disease have significantly increased rates of hospitalization from influenza-related illnesses compared to healthy adults. Influenza vaccination is the primary means of preventing influenza disease. Annual influenza vaccination is recommended for all individuals 6 months of age and older in the United States. Influenza vaccination rates are sub-optimal, however. Patient reminder/recall has been shown, in multiple studies across a variety of age groups and health conditions, to increase immunization rates. However, the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of different types of reminder/recall has not been well-studied, particularly in adults. In the fall of 2012, the Population and Prevention Services (PPS) Department at Kaiser Permanente Colorado (KPCO) is using 3 different reminder strategies for influenza vaccination among adults with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The objective of this study is to provide a rigorous evaluation of which strategy is more effective and more cost-effective, to promote influenza vaccination.
The rationale is to investigate the systemic availability of BDP/B17MP and formoterol after single oral inhalation of CHF 1535 50/6 pMDI vs the free combination of approved BDP and Formoterol pMDIs, in asthmatic children (5 to 11 years old).
The investigators will perform a pilot study of daily treatment with oral sulforaphane (SFN) for 3 days to determine if Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (NRF2) induction is possible with this supplementation regimen in individuals with allergic asthma.
This is a phase I, single-center, randomized, double-blind, dose escalation study without therapeutic benefit, in which PBF-680 will be administered as single oral ascending dose to young male healthy volunteers. Up to four different rising doses will be tested in groups of 8 participants. Thus, four groups will participate but each one participating only once. For each dose level / group the participants will be randomized to active or placebo with 2 participants being randomly assigned to placebo and 6 to the active drug. First, one volunteer will receive active drug (subgroup 1); after 48h of safety and tolerability assessment a second subgroup of 3 volunteers will receive 2 active drug and 1 placebo; after 48h of safety and tolerability parameters assessment a third subgroup of 4 volunteers will receive 3 active drug and 1 placebo. After evaluation of safety parameters of dose level the process will replicate one week afterwards in the following dosages. The aims of this study are: Primary: - To assess the safety and tolerability of single escalating oral doses of PBF-680 in young male healthy subjects leading to the determination of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Secondary: - To assess the pharmacokinetics of PBF-680 after single rising oral doses in healthy young male subjects. - To asses the preliminary pharmacodynamic effects. - To evaluate the adenosine A1 receptor antagonism in blood samples of healthy volunteer caused by the PBF-680 administration
The purpose of this study is to assess whether the risk of serious asthma-related events (asthma-related hospitalizations, asthma related intubations, and asthma related deaths) in adolescents and adults (12 years of age and older) taking inhaled formoterol fumarate/fluticasone propionate combination is the same as those taking inhaled fluticasone propionate alone.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of Albuterol Spiromax® and ProAir HFA after administration of a single inhaled dose of 180 mcg albuterol base from each product.
This is a multi-centre, open-label long-term safety study of 100 milligram (mg) mepolizumab administered subcutaneously (SC) every 4 weeks for 12 months in addition to standard of care in subjects who have severe, refractory asthma and a history of eosinophilic inflammation. Subjects who completed either MEA115588 or MEA115575 will be offered the opportunity to consent for this study.
