Filter by:Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which is caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in an ongoing global pandemic. It is unclear whether the relatively low number of reported cases of COVID-19 in people with CF (pwCF) is due to enhanced infection prevention practices or whether pwCF have protective genetic/immune factors. This study aims to prospectively assess the proportion of pwCF, including both adults and children with CF who have evidence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies over a two-year period. This study will also examine whether pwCF who have antibodies for SARS-CoV-2 have a different clinical presentation and what impact this has on their CF disease. The proposed study will recruit pwCF from paediatric and adult CF centres in Europe. Serological testing to detect antibodies will be performed on blood samples taken at month 0, 6, 12, 18 and 24 with additional time-points if bloodwork is available via normal clinical care. Clinical data on, lung function, CF-related medical history, pulmonary exacerbations, antibiotic use, and microbiology and vaccination receipt, will be collected during routine clinical assessments. Associations will be examined between socio-demographic and clinical variables and serologic testing. We will also examine the effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on clinical outcomes and analyse end-points to explore any age-related or gender-based differences, as well as subgroup analysis of outcomes in lung-transplant recipients and pwCF receiving CFTR modulator therapies. As pwCF receive COVID-19 vaccination we will perform a comparison of the development and progression of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in pwCF following natural infection and vaccination SARS-CoV-2 over time.
This study evaluates the effect of antioxidant docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in patients with cystic fibrosis. Half of participants will receive DHA, while the other half will receive placebo.
The purpose of this prospective study is to analyze function and phenotype of blood neutrophils in cystic fibrosis patients and the impact of Pseudomonas aeruginosa chronic infection, treatment with CFTR modulators and acute exacerbation on blood neutrophils phenotype and function.
This study will evaluate the effects of elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ELX/TEZ/IVA) on cough and physical activity using wearable technology in CF participants.
This is a single center, randomized, double-blind, cross-over trial (with a follow-on single-blind safety evaluation stage), assessing a ready-to-drink nutritional supplement used without PERT ("PERT-free"), nutritional supplement for blood lipid levels, safety and tolerability compared to a standard of care nutritional supplement used concomitantly with PERT.
This study will provide: (1) new insights in the prevalence of Aspergillus infection in children and adolescents with CF aged 8-17 yrs; (2) an in silico modelled dose of posaconazole for children and adolescents with CF and Aspergillus infection aged 8-17 yrs; (3) an intensive sampling PK study to define the optimal dose in a limited number of children and adolescents with CF and Aspergillus infection aged 8-17 yrs; (4) a prospective clinical validation to reduce the residual variability and to allow investigation into PK-PD; and (5) an efficacy evaluation of this dosing regimen to treat Aspergillus infection in children and adolescents with CF to inform future primary efficacy trials.
The study aims to investigate the sustainability of Bottle-PEP in patients with cystic fibrosis
This study aims to evaluate the pharmacokinetic changes during pregnancy, postpartum, and in breast milk in cystic fibrosis patients receiving a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CTFR) modulator, including Elexacaftor, Tezacaftor, Ivacaftor, or Lumacaftor.
This study will examine the effects of a novel ketone monester supplement on patients with cystic fibrosis experiencing an acute pulmonary exacerbation requiring hospitalization. Patients will undergo standard testing along with blood sampling to examine concentrations of inflammatory markers. Patients will then receive the ketone supplement for 5 days followed by post-testing to examine changes in pulmonary function and inflammatory markers
The objective of this registry is to collect and evaluate various clinical effectiveness parameters in patients with transplanted donor lung that were preserved and transported within the LUNGguard system, as well as retrospective standard of care patients
