Filter by:Study VX16-661-114 (Study 114) is a Phase 3b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study in subjects aged 12 years and older with CF who are homozygous for the F508del mutation on the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) gene and who discontinued treatment with Orkambi due to respiratory symptoms considered related to treatment. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor (TEZ/IVA).
This trial will consist of two parts: Part 1 and Part 2. Part 1 will enroll adult healthy volunteers (HV) into four treatment groups. The first group will enroll HV into a single ascending dose (SAD) treatment group consisting of three cohorts. The second group will enroll HV into a multiple ascending dose (MAD) treatment group consisting of three cohorts. The third group will enroll HV into a food effect (FE) treatment group consisting of one cohort. The fourth group will enroll HV into a drug-drug interactions (DDI) treatment group consisting of one cohort. Approximately 76 subjects will be enrolled in Part 1. Part 2 Cohorts 1 through 3 will enroll adult subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) currently on stable ivacaftor/lumacaftor background therapy for a minimum of three months. Part 2 Cohorts 4 and Cohort 5 will enroll adult subjects with CF not currently receiving cystic fibrosis conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapy within 30 days prior to Day 1. Part 2 Cohort 6 will enroll adult subjects with cystic fibrosis on stable tezacaftor/ivacaftor background therapy. Approximately 104 subjects will be enrolled in Part 2.
People with CF have elevated rates of anxiety and depression when compared to the general population. Anxiety and depression can have a negative impact on adherence and disease self-management, leading to worse CF health outcomes such as respiratory symptoms, functional capacity, and health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Project UPLIFT is a group mental health intervention that can be delivered by telephone or Web, though for this study the intervention will be web based only. Project UPLIFT was originally developed as a depression treatment and prevention program for people with epilepsy and was shown to be effective in reducing depression and increasing knowledge and skills. Recently, Project UPLIFT was revised to help people with CF manage their depression and anxiety and shown to be apparently successful in a pilot study that included adolescents and adults with CF. The goals of this project are to determine the effectiveness of Project UPLIFT in reducing anxiety and depression in adolescents and adults with CF, as well as increasing their quality of life and other physical health-related disease outcomes.
A Rollover Safety Study of Lumacaftor/Ivacaftor in Subjects Aged 2 Years and Older With Cystic Fibrosis, Homozygous for F508del.
Approximately half of the variation in the presentation and disease status of patients with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is secondary to non-genetic variables.[1] These include household income, compliance with therapy, second hand smoke exposure and possibly exercise (although exercise has less evidence to support its influence on disease status). Recently increased attention has been focused on the role of exercise and quality of life for patients with CF. This study will evaluate the role of exercise in relation to the patient's perception of their quality of life. The primary outcome will be the overall change in the patient's Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire - Revised (CFQ-R) over a one year period during which the participants are encouraged to exercise and use a personal fitness device to track their exercise. This is a prospective single group non-blinded study. Participants will be asked to wear a personal fitness device for 11-13 months. The change in CFQ-R score is the primary outcome and other secondary outcomes will include; (1) exacerbations of cystic fibrosis (through use of antibiotics), (2) change in subject's FEV1, (3) inpatient admission rates, (4) change in BMI and (5) change in 6 minute walk test. The study will take place at the Adult CF Clinic on the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center campus.
This is a Phase IIa, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate 4 different doses of GLPG2222 administered for 4 weeks to adult subjects with a confirmed diagnosis of CF and homozygous for the F508del Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator (CFTR) mutation.
The investigators know that peripheral muscle weakness and exercise intolerance are prevalent (56%) in cystic fibrosis (Trooster et al, 2009). Physical inactivity is likely to be an important underlying factor. Those conditions are associated with a poor prognosis (Nixon et al, 1992). The effect of intravenous antibiotherapy on peripheral muscle and physical activity remains unclear. The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of intravenous antibiotherapy on peripheral muscular strength in patients with cystic fibrosis (adults and children) who receive intravenous antibiotherapy for an acute exacerbation or electively (decline in lung function without exacerbation).
Physical activity (PA) in individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) improves exercise capacity, slows decline in lung function, increases mucus clearance and improves health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Establishing and maintaining an exercise routine remains challenging and programs promoting PA in people with CF have poor participation. Moreover, while the positive effects of physical conditioning on lung function have been well reported, conventional measurements of lung function may lack the sensitivity to reveal improvement in mild lung disease. This randomized control trial (RCT; N = 60) evaluates the Do More, B'More, Live Fit, a 6-month fitness program designed to optimize exercise habits of 12-21 year-olds with CF through structured exercises with personalized coaching, exercise equipment including the FitBit Flex, online support and motivational messages delivered electronically. The intervention incorporates fitness preferences and encompasses endurance, strength and flexibility exercises while adjusting to physical fitness needs. The hypothesis is that intervention participants will have increased and sustained engagement and better health outcomes compared to control group participants. The investigators' specific aims are to: 1. Increase daily PA and measures of fitness 2. Improve lung clearance index (LCI) and participant HRQoL 3. Demonstrate feasibility, accessibility and satisfaction of intervention using semi-structured interviews The results of this pilot evaluation of the Do More, B'More, Live Fit program will offer novel insight into factors that sustain engagement in exercise programs and identify if LCI is an appropriate clinical outcome to assess PA interventions. Results will inform future RCT of interventions to optimize exercise habits of adolescents with CF.
The goal of this study is to define 25(OH)D3 catabolism in CF patients using gold standard pharmacokinetics studies. Specifically, the investigators will evaluate the metabolic clearance of 25(OH)D3 among participants with CF and matched control subjects. The goal of this work is to provide the first comprehensive characterization of vitamin D metabolism in CF patients and promote novel hypotheses for subsequent studies.
Studies demonstrate that exercise increases the maximal oxygen uptake, peak oxygen consumption, reduce effort-induced lactic acid production, and increase skeletal muscle oxidative capacity, as well as psychological aspects such as increased self-esteem and improvement of the quality of life. In the literature there is only one study involving rehabilitation in hospitalized pediatric patients with cystic fibrosis. Thus, more information on in-hospital rehabilitation is required in adult cystic fibrosis patients. The present study aims to evaluate the effects of an early rehabilitation program, based on aerobic training and muscle strength training, in adolescent and adult patients with cystic fibrosis hospitalized at Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre for exacerbation of lung disease.
