Filter by:Protocol 0000498: Multicenter, open label study to evaluate the effect of sustained RELiZORB (immobilized lipase) cartridge use during enteral feeding on fat absorption, as well as safety and tolerability of sustained RELiZORB use, in patients with cystic fibrosis and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency.
Liprotamase consists of 3 soluble, non-porcine digestive enzymes, lipase, protease, and amylase, combined in a fixed ratio. Liprotamase is stable in the stomach and can be formulated without enteric coating for administration either as a capsule or as a dosing solution dissolved in water or juice. The purpose of the present study is to provide efficacy and safety data for a new, soluble formulation of liprotamase, Liprotamase Powder for Oral Solution, in Cystic Fibrosis patients with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI).
The primary purpose of study is to evaluate the treatment effect of tezacaftor in combination with ivacaftor (TEZ/IVA) on chest imaging endpoints using low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) at Week 72, and to evaluate the safety of TEZ/IVA through Week 72.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety of ivacaftor treatment, and PK of ivacaftor and metabolites in participants with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are <24 months of age at treatment initiation and have an ivacaftor-responsive CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene mutation.
Cystic fibrosis-related diabetes is a late cystic fibrosis (CF) associated comorbidity whose prevalence is increasing sharply lifelong. Guidelines for glucose metabolism (GM) monitoring relies on oral glucose tolerance test . However, this test is neither sensitive nor specific. The aim of this study is to compare sensitivity and specificity of different methods for GM monitoring in children and adolescents with CF. Continuous GM system (CGMS) will be used as the reference method. Results will be compared to those of oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), intravenous glucose tolerance test (IGTT), homeostasis model assessment index of insulin resistance (HOMA-%IR) , homeostasis model assessment index of beta-cell function (HOMA-%B) and HbA1C dosage (glycated haemoglobin A1C). Patients will be classified into three groups according to CGMS: normal glucose tolerance, impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of this study is to confirm the long-term safety and effectiveness of Kalydeco® (ivacaftor) in US CF patients with the R117H-CFTR mutation <18 years of age and to describe the long-term safety and effectiveness of Kalydeco in CF patients with the R117H-CFTR mutation overall and in patients ≥18 years. The long-term safety and effectiveness of Kalydeco will be examined in totality through the evaluation of the primary outcome measures.
This is a randomised controlled cross-over trial involving adult cystic fibrosis (CF) patients from the Royal Brompton Hospital, London investigating outcome measures used in airway clearance trials. Each participant will attend the research facility for two visits. Participants will be randomly assigned to the order that they perform the study sessions. Visit A will involve a period of rest for up to 60 minutes in-between assessments; Visit B will involve a session of airway clearance (ACT) utilising ACBT supervised by a specialist physiotherapist in adult CF. Participants will perform the outcome measure (OM) tests of impulse oscillation system (IOS), lung clearance index (LCI), and spirometry, then either rest (visit A) or perform a supervised ACBT session (visit B) using electronic impedance tomography (EIT) during the session. IOS, LCI and spirometry will be repeated after the session. Sputum will be collected throughout the ACT or rest sessions and for 30 minutes after each of these sessions is completed. Questionnaires asking patient views on the OMs will be completed at the end of each study visit. Analysis will be based upon differences in outcome measures and in-between study days.
This trial will consist of three arms: Part A, Part B, and Part C. Part A has two groups. The first group will enroll adult subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) into a single ascending dose (SAD) treatment group. The second group will enroll adult subjects with CF, including those on background treatment with ORKAMBI® and those not on a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator, into a multiple ascending dose (MAD) treatment group. Part B will enroll adult subjects with CF currently on stable ORKAMBI® background therapy for a minimum of 3 months into a Phase II treatment group consisting of two cohorts. Part C will enroll adult subjects with CF, including those on background treatment with KALYDECO® and those not on a CFTR modulator, into a Phase II treatment group consisting of three cohorts. Approximately 136 subjects will be enrolled.
Fitness in patients with Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an important biomarker associated with higher survivability and improved quality of life. CF patients are encouraged to maintain an active lifestyle, however, while physicians are able to prescribe airway clearance measures or specific medications, there is no prescription for exercise or avenue to promote exercise outside the clinic or hospital.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of treatment with VX-371 in hypertonic saline compared to hypertonic saline alone in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are ≥12 years of age, homozygous for the F508del-cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutation, and being treated with Orkambi
