Filter by:To compare the efficacy and safety profiles of Beclomethasone dipropionate Inhalation Aerosol, 40 mcg (test product) and QVAR 40 mcg (beclomethasone dipropionate HFA), Inhalation Aerosol (reference product) and to demonstrate that the efficacy of the 2 active products is superior to that of placebo in the treatment of subjects with asthma.
This study is multicenter, double-blinded parallel group design, where participants with moderate to severe asthma with AFAD will be enrolled. Participants will receive three doses of 10 milligrams/kilogram (mg/kg) of GSK3772847 every 4 Weeks versus placebo along with standard of care. Participants will be randomized in 1:1 ratio to receive either 10 mg/kg GSK3772847 intravenously (IV) or matching placebo IV. Participants will receive study treatment on Week 0 (Day 1), Week 4 and Week 8. The total duration of the study will be 28 Weeks and approximately 46 participants will be randomized.
The main purpose of this open randomized, ex-vivo comparative study, is to assess and to compare the inhalable dose of inhaled corticosteroid collected through a nasal filter and a mouth filter located in a partitioned face mask and delivered to an infant with asthma via a Tipshaler® holding chamber
Insomnia is commonly reported by adults with asthma. Insomnia can worsen asthma patients' quality of life and increase the risk for asthma attacks.This clinical trial will compare sleep and asthma control in adults with asthma and insomnia who receive either an internet-based intervention for insomnia or an educational video about insomnia.
This will be a randomized, open-label, active-controlled, single dose crossover study with either three or four treatment periods. Investigational treatment is with Dance 501 Human Insulin Inhalation Solution (Dance 501) and the comparator is Insulin Lispro (Humalog®). Target population will be Non-Diabetic individuals with mild to moderate asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and non-diabetic individuals without underlying lung disease (healthy subjects).
Asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases affecting children in the UK. Poorly controlled asthma manifests with chronic cough, wheeze and shortness of breath which in-turn has a significant negative impact on a child's quality of life, interfering with sleep, impairing exercise ability and resulting in frequent school absences and hospital admissions. Management of paediatric asthma in the UK is directed by the British Thoracic Society (BTS) Guidelines, which recommend a stepwise (one to five) treatment plan. Step three of the management guideline for children aged 5-12 years of age recommends the addition of the preventer inhaled medication, including long-acting β2 agonists such as salmeterol. However, there is a wide variation in response to this medication with approximately one in seven people, with a specific genetic change, found to have an increase in asthma symptoms in association with the use of thisiss medication. A related medicine, formoterol, is used less commonly in children with asthma. In this study, the investigators will aim to identify children with asthma whose symptoms are poorly controlled on inhaled long-acting beta2 agonists. Via a simple saliva test, the investigators will identify the presence or absence of the specific genetic change potentally influencing the effectiveness of treatment with salmeterol or related longacting beta2 agonists thus enabling the investigators to recommend either salmeterol or an alternative medication for the treatment plan such as montelukast. The investigators will randomise the patients into two groups; to receive "personalised care" where the choice of controller medication would be based on the child's gene test results and predicted response to long-acting beta2 agonists, or "standard care" following the BTS guidelines at the clinician's discretion without knowledge of the gene test results. The investigators aim to measure whether this individualized approach to asthma prescribing results in improved control of asthma symptoms and overall quality of life. Targeting treatment to a child's specific genetic make-up is a concept known as "personalised medicine".
This is a prospective, randomized multi-center trial investigating the impact of lower airway infection with P. aeruginosa in COPD patients. The aim of the study is to evaluate if targeted antibiotic therapy against P. aeruginosa can improve the prognosis in patients with COPD. non-CF bronchiectasis (BE) and asthma.
This research is being done to evaluate the feasibility of a prudent versus Western diet feeding study in women with asthma in Baltimore City. The results of this research will provide data to appropriately design a definitive study looking at the differential effects of these two diets on asthma health.
This is a prospective study comparing 4 groups: (1) non-smoking controls, (2) smokers without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), (3) smokers with COPD, (4) severe asthma. Bronchial biopsy specimens from each subject will be obtained to produce air-liquid-interface cell cultures. These will then be used to make observations concerning cilia and mucus rheology. This is a first pilot study. The working hypothesis is that the largest group differences will be found for cilia densities; the latter metric was thus chosen as a primary criterion.
In this integrated, multi-part, Phase I study, the safety, tolerability, food effect, pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) properties of single and repeated doses of AZD9898 will be investigated.
