Filter by:This study aims at collecting the information related to the safety and effectiveness in the pancreatic exocrine insufficiency patients due to cystic fibrosis receiving the treatment with LipaCreon in order to evaluate the effective and safe use of LipaCreon.
The purpose of this study is determine if high-dose vitamin D supplementation improves clinical outcomes related to lung function and immunity in patients with Cystic Fibrosis who are admitted to the hospital with an acute lung infection.
Primary objective of this study is to investigate the long-term tolerability and safety profile of BIBF 1120 on top of pirfenidone treatment in patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis who have completed a prior clinical trial of BIBF 1120 (1199.31). Secondary objectives are to assess effects on some efficacy criteria during long term treatment with BIBF 1120 on top of pirfenidone.
This was an open-label, multicenter study in children ≤ 12 years of age with cystic fibrosis (CF) and chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) infection in the lower airways using three 28-day courses of Aztreonam for Inhalation Solution (AZLI) 75 mg three times daily, each followed by 28 days off AZLI. The total treatment duration was to be 6 months.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether measurement of body composition has a prognostic value on clinical and overall outcome in pediatric patients with cystic fibrosis.
Treatment of new Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) infection in cystic fibrosis (CF) can postpone chronic infection. Aim of the study: compare 2 Pa eradication regimens in children with new Pa infection.
The primary objective of this study is to establish the feasibility and safety of infusions of placental Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSC) from related or unrelated HLA identical or HLA mismatched donors in the treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). The secondary objectives are to document changes in lung function, 6 minute walk distance (6MWD), gas exchange and radiological appearance following infusion of MSC over a six month evaluation period.
This experiment is designed to test the effectiveness of a new electronic nose device, which allows a non-invasive breath test for markers of lower respiratory tract infection, which may predict the probability of bacterial organisms in the lower respiratory tract. It consists of: - A breath collection apparatus for collection of volatile organic compounds in breath onto a sorbent trap and Tedlar bag, as well as for the collection of a separate sample of room air. - Analysis of the volatile organic compounds in breath and room air by short acoustic wave/gas chromatography. - Interpretation of the volatile organic compounds with a proprietary algorithm in order to predict the probability of lower respiratory tract colonization and infection. This study will test the hypothesis that the investigators can identify the presence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa by sampling the "head space" above culture media of sputum provided by patients with cystic fibrosis. This study will test the additional hypothesis that the investigators can identify the presence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa by sampling exhaled breath from the patient providing the sputum.
A phase IV clinical trial, multicentric (3 Hospitals in Madrid) controlled, prospective, open and randomized of long-term treatment with hypertonic saline in cystic fibrosis patients. The purpose of this study is to verify if the long term inhalation (48 weeks) of major volume (10 ml) increases the free time without pulmonary exacerbation, and if this increase is superior to the obtained with the inhalation of the standard volume (5 ml) that has been advocated.
This is an open-label, multi-center study in pediatric patients age 3 months to less than 18 years with cystic fibrosis (CF) and newly detected Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) pulmonary colonization/infection. All eligible participants will be treated with a 28-day course of Aztreonam for Inhalation Solution (AZLI) 75 mg 3 times daily. After completion of study drug, subjects will be followed up through Day 196 for safety and recurrence of PA. The primary objective is to evaluate the proportion of participants with PA-negative cultures at all time points during a 6-month monitoring period (through Day 196) after cessation of AZLI treatment. Microbiological cultures will be obtained at Baseline, Day 28 (end of AZLI treatment), Day 56 (1 month after completing AZLI treatment), Day 112 (3 months after completing AZLI treatment), and Day 196 (6 months after completing AZLI treatment).
