Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether nocturnal environmental control with Temperature controlled Laminar Airflow (TLA) is effective as add on treatment in patients with perennial allergic asthma.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the concordance of the most frequently used words by the patients and the physicians to express asthma symptoms and the limitations of daily activities caused by asthma.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ABT-308 in healthy volunteers and patients with mild to moderate controlled asthma.
The aim of the study is to measure the inspiratory flow that the different patient groups (asthmatic children, adults and elderly, as well as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients) generate through empty Easyhaler (two versions) and Turbuhaler inhalers. In addition, the handling and acceptability of the inhalers will be compared in asthmatic children.
This Phase II, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, parallel-group study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of huMAb OX40L administered to patients by IV infusion for the treatment of allergen-induced asthma.
The purpose of this study is to determine the role of versican and hyaluronan measurements in induced sputum as biomarkers of asthma. Enroll 10 subjects with mild persistent asthma who are not receiving treatment with a controller therapy.
The study is a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of selected doses and dose intervals of the novel long acting beta agonist (LABA), GW642444 in asthmatic subjects ≥18 years of age who are currently receiving inhaled corticosteroid treatment.
This three-year, grant funded project will be conducted by the Division of Clinical Informatics in the Department of Community and Family Medicine at Duke University Medical Center. The project seeks to improve care quality and safety in an ambulatory care setting through clinical decision support for evidence-based (EB) pharmacotherapy delivered as point-of-care reports to clinic-based practitioners and as population health-based alerts to care managers. This project will build upon a regional Health Information Exchange (HIE) network created to connect providers serving 37,000 Medicaid beneficiaries from both rural and urban settings in a 5 county region in the Northern Piedmont of North Carolina. This network includes 16 private practices, 3 federally qualified health centers, 5 rural health centers, 3 urgent care facilities, 10 government agencies, 5 hospitals, and 2 cross-disciplinary care management teams. The proposed information system will be based on an emerging standard for decision support and will utilize routinely available claims and scheduling data in order to serve as a replicable model for broader use of decision support for medication management. Increased availability and use of decision support tools for medication management can be expected to reduce medication errors, improve health care quality at an acceptable cost, and augment disease management for patients and populations.
The study null hypothesis is that vitamin D supplementation will not influence time to upper respiratory tract infection or time to severe asthma exacerbation in adult and adolescent patients with asthma.
Mometasone furoate (MF) is a new potent synthetic corticosteroid. Internationally, MF is administered by a breath-actuated DPI and supplied in multidose devices. Capsules to be administered through a monodose device that would offer an alternative to MF DPI multidose treatment in terms of cost-effectiveness were developed in Brazil. The aim of the present non-inferiority clinical study was to evaluate both devices in terms of efficacy and safety.
