Filter by:This is a prospective, observational study examining the impact of highly effective cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators on chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and olfactory dysfunction (OD) in young children with cystic fibrosis (YCwCF). This study involves two groups: children 2-8 years old, inclusive at initial visit, receiving highly effective modulator therapy (HEMT), and a control group of children 2-8 years old, inclusive at initial visit, not receiving HEMT. Outcomes will include sinus magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, olfactory tests, and quality of life surveys obtained over a two-year period.
No studies in the literature have investigated the simultaneous effects of cognitive function, exercise capacity and arterial stiffness in adult patients with CF. The study aims to compare the cognitive function, exercise capacity, exercise muscle oxygenation, and arterial stiffness of adult patients with CF and healthy subjects.
In this exploratory study, the hormonal responses to a mixed meal will be examined in people with cystic fibrosis. The aim of this study is to find correlates with impaired glucose tolerance that is associated with this population.
CMTX-101 is a bacterial biofilm disrupting monoclonal antibody being developed as an adjunctive therapy to standard of care antibiotics. The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and tolerability of CMTX-101 in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Are single doses of CMTX-101 IV infusion safe and tolerated - What is the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of single doses of CMTX-101 - Do single doses of CMTX-101 induce development of anti-drug antibodies (ADA) and neutralizing antibodies (Nabs)
The purpose of the study is to evaluate safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of VX-828 in healthy participants.
This will be a placebo-controlled, randomized, double blind, crossover study with a 4 week wash out period. Collect pilot data on the safety, tolerability, and feasibility of empagliflozin therapy in overweight/obese patients with CFRD to support a future larger randomized controlled trial.
The number of CF adults is increasing year after year (61.7% in 2021) confirming that patients are living longer. These data do not leave aside the desire to see CF patients "age well" considering of all the comorbidities linked to aging. Among these comorbidities, the oral repercussions of cystic fibrosis and its treatments remain to this day little investigated. We know, however, that oral health, and periodontal health, is closely linked to general health. Indeed, the oral cavity presents one of the richest microbiota in the body, made up of bacteria, viruses, yeasts and archae organized into a biofilm at the interface of periodontal tissues. Periodontal diseases are partly linked to an imbalance in and loss of diversity within the commensal periodontal flora, aggravated by risk factors such as diabetes, which affects many CF adults. Early detection and treatment of periodontal diseases are therefore of primary interest in patients at increased risk of respiratory infections such as CF patients. This transversal research project aims to study the oral repercussions, notably periodontal disease prevalence in cystic fibrosis (CF) adult patients. Thus, this program will allow, on the one hand, the acquisition of clinical and biological data on periodontal and/or dental pathologies from which adult CF patients may suffer. These data will be accessible through an oral and periodontal clinical examination that will allow the identification of diagnostic clues. The quality of life related to oral health will also be investigated using a self-administered questionnaire. Clinical and biological data commonly recorded in the context of the medical follow-up of CF patients (ventilatory capacity, glycemic status, cytobacteriological examination of sputum, etc.) will also be taken into account in order to study any correlations with periodontal status. On the other hand, on a more fundamental level, this work aims to investigate the impact of CFTR protein dysfunction on the local immunity of the oral cavity and more particularly on the expression of antimicrobial peptides at the level of the periodontium. Thus this project is articulated around a strong axis which is "aging well" for adult CF patients thanks to the improvement of knowledge and ultimately the prevention of comorbidities linked to aging in CF adult patients and particularly those related to oral health.
The study was conducted in the age range of 18-45 December, who were diagnosed with Cystic fibrosis.
Psychological distress (anxiety and depression) is common in and experienced differently by people living with long-term health conditions (LTCs). Being able to measure whether psychological distress is related to living with a LTC would allow researchers and clinicians to provide interventions specifically tailored to the challenges of living with a LTC and therefore provide the most appropriate support for these patients. Such a measure would also be useful in research to identify the presence of illness-related distress in different patient groups. This project will therefore create a new measure of illness-related distress that has applications for both research and clinical practice. This will involve the psychometric validation of the new illness-related distress measure to test how valid and reliable the measure is. The aim of the project is to provide initial validation of the Illness Related Distress Scale in a community sample, recruited through online platforms. The objective of the study is to gather initial validity and reliability data for the scale.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common hereditary disease in Central Europe. The disease is caused by a mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR). In the liver, fibrotic remodeling can lead to liver cirrhosis in the long term. Early detection of CF hepatopathy is essential to therapeutically slow down the progression of fibrotic remodeling mechanisms. Newborns suffering from CF have a significantly increased risk for the occurrence of meconium ileus and also with advancing age there are symptoms ranging from chronic constipation to Distal Intestinal Obstruction Syndrome (DIOS), due to a reduction of intestinal motility. In this study, the degree of liver fibrosis will now be investigated in adult patients with cystic fibrosis using Multispectral Optoacoustic Imaging (MSOT). In addition, gastrointestinal passage will be studied non-invasively to investigate another affection of the gastrointestinal system.
