Filter by:Study RIN-PF-301 is designed to evaluate the superiority of inhaled treprostinil against placebo for the change in absolute forced vital capacity (FVC) from baseline to Week 52.
The purpose of this study is to establish a clinical database for patients bearing at risk for ILD (Interstitial Lung Disease) and to set up a prospective ILD Screening program for these patients.
The primary objective of this study is to determine if a sputum colour chart can aid patient self-management of COPD exacerbations, such that use of the chart is non-inferior to usual care with respect to hospital admissions. There are also a range of other secondary objectives as detailed in the secondary outcomes section. An integral pilot phase, economic evaluation and process evaluation are also included.
The investigators will utilize a systematic approach for the diagnostic evaluation of patients to identify characteristics which may distinguish between Primary Immunodeficiency (PID) disorders versus Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD).
Primary Objective: Evaluate the efficacy of itepekimab compared with placebo on the annualized rate of acute moderate-or-severe COPD exacerbations in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD Secondary Objectives: - Evaluate the efficacy of itepekimab compared with placebo on pulmonary function in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD - Evaluate the efficacy of itepekimab compared with placebo on occurrence of acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD - Evaluate the efficacy of itepekimab compared with placebo on severe AECOPD in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD - Evaluate the efficacy of itepekimab compared with placebo on corticosteroid-treated AECOPD in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD - Evaluate the efficacy of itepekimab compared with placebo on respiratory symptoms in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD - Evaluate the efficacy of itepekimab compared with placebo on Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) slope in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD - Evaluate the efficacy of itepekimab compared with placebo on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) as assessed by St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD - Evaluate the safety and tolerability of itepekimab in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD - Evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of itepekimab in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD - Evaluate immunogenicity to itepekimab in former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD
This study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to compare sleep and health-related functioning in Veterans with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and insomnia receiving an Internet-based behavioral treatment for insomnia versus online insomnia patient education. Participants will undergo a sleep and health assessment that will be performed at baseline, post-treatment, and 3-months later. Participants will be randomly assigned to either Internet-based behavioral treatment for insomnia or online insomnia patient education.
This Phase 3, 2-part, open-label, multicenter study aims to demonstrate the safety and tolerability of L606 in patients with PAH or PH-ILD. The study will determine the short-term and long-term safety and tolerability of L606 in this patient population; also evaluate the steady-state pharmacokinetics (PK) of L606 as compared to Tyvaso, effects on exercise ability, quality of life, and treatment satisfaction with L606.
This multi-arm, multi-site study investigates the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of stem cell therapy for the treatment of various acute and chronic conditions. Clinically observed initial findings and an extensive body of research indicate regenerative treatments are both safe and effective for the treatment of multiple conditions.
Humidified High Flow Nasal Cannula (HHFNC), with optional supplemental oxygen delivery, has evolved in recent years with an increasing number of papers that show a better meet with respiratory demand, decrease oxygen dilution, increased Functional Residual Capacity (FRC), dead space washout, more tolerate than Non Invasive Ventilation (NIV) and provide heated and humidified gas. HHFNC is mainly used in intensive care settings or in acute respiratory diseases for the treatment of mild to moderate acute hypoxic respiratory failure and ventilator weaning. The aim of this study is to evaluate, in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in nocturnal NIV, according to the European Respiratory Society (ERS) and American Thoracic Society (ATS) guidelines, whether HHFNC during rehabilitation has an additional effect in increasing the distance in 6 Minute Walking Distance (6MWD) compared to the control group with nocturnal NIV without HHFNC treatment. As secondary objectives, we expect a decrease in Emergency Department (ED) accesses, General Practitioner (GP) unplanned visits, hospitalizations and an improvement of the quality of life and patient satisfaction.
Radiology is an important component of the multidisciplinary team. The primary goal of this project will be to create a tool using findings on chest computed tomography (CT) for nearly 300 patients with the most common types of fibrosis. The tool will be tested using chest CT scans of an additional 100 patients with the 3 most common diagnoses of fibrosis. The second objective will be to further validate the tool by performing a reader study with 3 co-investigating radiologists and ask them to look at 100 CT scans of patients with fibrosis without tool and then with tool and see if accuracy of diagnosis improves compared to the working diagnosis when using the tool.
