Filter by:Introduction and Objectives:IPF, characterized by shortness of breath and progressive deterioration in lung function.Baduanjin (BJ) is a mindbody health exercise that combines physical exercise with psychological properties to maximize both physical and mental health.The aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of these exercises in patients with IPF and to present an alternative in terms of the applicability of BJ exercises as a new treatment method Methods: 28 volunteers were invited to the study.These patients were randomly divided into 2 groups.The subjects in the exercise group were given 24 sessions of supervised online BJ exercise training, 3 days a week, for 8 weeks. The patients included in the control group did not receive any training during the 8 week period
General description of the study This is a prospective, multicenter, expanded access interventional study of subjects recovered from COVID-19 pneumonia to assess their response to intravenous administration of adipose-derived autologous SVF. Primary objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety of single intravenous injections of autologous adipose-derived SVF produced using the GID SVF-2 device system for the treatment of secondary respiratory distress associated with COVID-19. Secondary objective To evaluate the efficacy of the initial treatment with SVF IV.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic profiles of SC1011,in health conditions. The main questions it aims to answer are: Safety and tolerability profiles in healthy subjects.Pharmacokinetic profiles in healthy subjects.Food effect in healthy subjects.Participants will complete the study including screening period, dosing period, and observation period. Researchers will compare the inhibitory activity of SC1011 tablets with pirfenidone capsules against the same biomarkers(e.g. blood TNFα) to see if they are different between the two drugs.

Based on preclinical data, investigators hypothesize that apoptosis resistance in monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) have a decisive role in the development of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Specifically, macrophages from subjects with IPF have increased expression of Bcl-2 in mitochondria. In preclinical models of IPF, a conditional deletion of Bcl-2 in MDMs reverses established fibrosis by inducing apoptosis. Additional evidence to suggest that Bcl-2 expression in MDM mitochondria is a therapeutic target for IPF as administration of the Bcl-2 inhibitor, ABT-199 (Venetoclax), showed marked efficacy in preclinical models of IPF by inducing apoptosis of MDMs and reversing established fibrosis. ABT-199 is an orally available mimetic of the BH3 domain of Bcl-2, which is the domain the anchors Bcl-2 in the mitochondria to inhibit apoptosis. ABT-199 has shown therapeutic efficacy and good safety and tolerability in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Investigators anticipate that treatment with ABT-199 could result in significant benefit for IPF patients that have a life expectancy of 3-5 years. As there is no curative therapy for IPF, this clinical trial has the potential to substantially alter treatment approaches in patients with IPF.
This study has two objectives: 1. To assess the association between nintedanib adherence trajectory group (as measured from a Group-based Trajectory Modelling (GBTM)) and health care resource use, with a focus on inpatient hospitalization, among patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). 2. To assess the association between a patient's nintedanib adherence trajectory group (as measured from a GBTM) and their medical costs among patients with IPF.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the potential effect of ENV-101 (taladegib) on the pharmacokinetics of nintedanib (an approved treatment for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis) when the two compounds are dosed together in healthy subjects. Participants in this study will receive ENV-101 and/or nintedanib on various days throughout a 10-day period during which they will reside at the clinical trial site.
The purpose of this study is to compare AI performance to doctor's performance in the evaluation of IPF/UIP and ILDs without UIP(proven by biopsy).
The overarching aim of our study is to assess the incidence of dose reduction and discontinuations for pirfenidone and nintedanib.
Approximately 1 in 5 (or 12.7 million adults) in the UK have longstanding respiratory illnesses, and 6.5 million patients report taking prescription medication to ease the burden. Many patients suffer from lung tissue damage, which impairs adequate blood oxygenation and reduces blood saturations, and causes breathlessness. The current method of treatment is palliative - with the patient breathing supplemental oxygen through an oxygen cylinder and tube. This severely compromises patients' quality of life, as they are tethered to a heavy, unwieldy oxygen cylinder, limiting their ability and willingness to leave home. Several recent studies in both animals and humans have indicated that orally administered oxygenated nanobubbles is a safe intervention that can improve tissue oxygenation. This randomized, double-blinded, cross-over, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the effect of an oxygen nanobubbles drink on the exercise performance of patients with chronic lung disease, such as pulmonary fibrosis. Patients will conduct the 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT) twice, once with a placebo drink and once with the oxygen nanobubbles drink, based on a double-blind randomization protocol, and this study will evaluate the distance walked, heart rate, oxygen levels, breathlessness, and time to recovery in both cases. The investigators hypothesize that drinking the oxygen nanobubbles drink will improve the delivery of oxygen to vital organs, improving the distance a patient can cover in the 6 Minute Walk Test by 30m, which is the minimum clinically important difference.
