Filter by:Background Nebulised hypertonic saline (HS) is an established basic airway clearance treatment in Cystic Fibrosis (CF). However, there is scarce evidence regarding the practical implementation and administration of different HS volumes, including physiotherapy and aspects of breathing pattern. The aim of the study was to implement standardised and age-adjusted nebulised volumes of hypertonic saline in cystic fibrosis patients, included in physiotherapy and lung drainage techniques.
Ivacaftor will restore CFTR function in treated CF patients with the G551D mutation. Improvement in ventilation, salt balance and well-being will contribute to better exercise capacity at all levels of lung function. While potential improvements may be variable across the spectrum of lung function, even small gains at low levels of FEV1 may have significant benefit for some subjects.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of long-term treatment with lumacaftor in combination with ivacaftor in people 12 years and older with Cystic Fibrosis.
We are the missing link in clinical trials, connecting patients and researchers seamlessly and conveniently using a mobile health platform to advance medical research. We make it easy for patients to contribute to research for medical conditions that matter most to them, regardless of their location or ability to travel.
This is a double-blind randomised controlled crossover study to investigate whether high frequency airflow oscillation (HFAO), delivered using Aerosure, improves sputum clearance in patients admitted to hospital with infective exacerbations of cystic fibrosis (CF). This study will test the hypothesis that the wet weight of sputum expectorated is greater following the use of Aerosure than following the use of a sham Aerosure device.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the drug Plerixafor (Mozobil) can lead to clinically relevant efflux of CD117+ stem cells from the bone marrow to the peripheral blood of normal controls and patients awaiting lung transplantation. The investigator's hypothesis is that Plerixafor (Mozobil) will lead to significant mobilization of CD117+ stem cells to the peripheral blood.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of the global approach to the pain in cystic fibrosis patients with chronic or intermittent pain. The patients will receive in addition to an usual pharmacological and psychological management, sophrology sessions at home. The results of this study will provide a new strategy of management of the patient's pain.
This study is designed to evaluate the effect of multiple doses of lumacaftor in combination with ivacaftor on cardiac repolarization, as detected by QT/QTc interval corrected for heart rate in healthy subjects.
This study is designed to investigate the effect of food on the relative bioavailability of 2 different strengths of fixed-dose combinations of lumacaftor and ivacaftor tablet formulations.
This is a Phase 3, 2 part (Part A and Part B), open label, multicenter study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of lumacaftor in combination with ivacaftor in subjects with cystic fibrosis aged 6 to 11 years who have the F508del-mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene.
