Filter by:Although patients with bronchiectasis tend to have non reversible obstructive patterns on pulmonary function tests (PFTs), reversible obstruction is not uncommon. While bronchodilator response (BDR) is a main characteristic of asthma, the pathophysiology causing this phenomenon in bronchiectasis patients is less clear. The goal of this clinical trial is to assess BDR in patients with bronchiectasis. The main aims of this study: 1. To evaluate the role of bronchodilators in BDR testing of patients with bronchiectasis. 2. Characterize and compare BDR between different subgroups of patients with bronchiectasis, and compared to patients without bronchiectasis (healthy controls). 3. Identify demographics and other clinical variables associated with positive BDR Participants will be taking a series of three spirometry tests: After the first spirometry testing, patients will be randomly assigned to receive bronchodilators as per bronchodilator response protocol (Salbutamol, 100 mcg, 4 puffs via spacer) or four puffs of placebo. After a waiting time of 15 minutes, spirometry will be repeated. Following the second spirometry testing those who received salbutamol will now receive placebo and those receiving placebo will receive Salbutamol. After a second period of 15 minutes, a third series of spirometry will be recorded.
Currently, there is no official recommendations for the respiratory surveillance of patients with PID.However, it is recommended to perform a chest CT scan each 5 years or before any significant therapeutic change. The methods of surveillance need to meet two contradictory imperatives: - monitor frequently enough not to diagnose with delay an aggravation of bronchiectasis or interstitial pneumonitis, an infectious complication by a slowly growing pathogen such as a non-tuberculous mycobacterium, or lymphoid proliferation. - do not expose these often young patients to significant irradiation by a considerable number of scans during their life. In addition, some patients with PID have increased radiosensitivity without a safe irradiation threshold having been determined. To make thoses requirements effective, the solution is to combine radiological monitoring and absence of irradiation. Therefore, it makes sense to study whether chest scans can be replaced by MRI, non-irradiating imaging. But the question that needs to be answered is whether the information provided by the chest MRI is not inferior to that provided by the scanner. The objective of this study is to assess the ability of MRI performed with ultrashort echo time to analyze the extent and severity of bronchial and pulmonary parenchymal lesions during the follow-up of patients with primary immunodeficiency, comparing them to those of the chest CT scan.
The goal of our study is to assess the cellular immune responses of participants with antibody deficiency disease before and after immunization with SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines.
This is a Phase IV, multicenter, open-label study of Asceniv™ administered as an intravenous infusion of Asceniv™ (IGIV) 300-800 mg/kg every 21 or 28 days in approximately 12 pediatric subjects with Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases (PIDD). The study will be conducted at 5-7 centers in the United States, with subjects receiving six (28 day cycle) or seven (21 day cycle) doses of Asceniv™ during the study.
Though common, morbidities related to upper airway disease in primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and primary immunodeficiencies (PID) have not been fully characterized. These conditions can be difficult to distinguish due to their overlapping phenotypes. The sinonasal and middle ear features are often identified as most problematic by patients and their families, and optimal, highly effective treatment regimens have not been established. The main objective of this project is to characterize and compare the upper airway phenotypes in individuals with confirmed diagnosis of PCD and PID, and to collect critical data to inform the design of future clinical trials of treatment of the upper airway diseases. The investigators anticipate that these investigations will discern the clinical, anatomical, and pathophysiological phenotypes of paranasal sinus disease in PCD and PID, identifying disease endpoints and biomarkers that differentiate these two overlapping disorders. Findings from these studies will also enhance our understanding of middle ear disease and associated hearing loss in a cross-sectional cohort of patients with PCD and PID. Ultimately, the long-term goal of our Consortium is to elucidate underlying phenotypes and genotypes of these diseases, potentially leading to novel therapeutics that will improve the lives of affected individuals. Given the COVID pandemic, certain procedures will have the option to be converted to telehealth visits to ensure compliance with local guidelines and participant safety.
The study team plans to establish a bioregistry of patients receiving biologic therapy as part of their standard treatment at the Mount Sinai Therapeutic Infusion Center and affiliated practices. The study team will to apply state-of-the-art approaches to assessing and predicting immunological and clinical responses associated with these standards and prescribed treatments. The approach is twofold. The first component is to establish a robust and flexible biorepository and database that includes demographic, immunologic, exposure and clinical records, and can facilitate research across disciplines, and across other registries affiliated with Mount Sinai. The second component is to address specific key research questions focused on using novel diagnostics to increase the effectiveness of biologic treatment. Most patients will be recruited from the Mount Sinai Therapeutic Infusion Center (TIC), although others receiving infusions elsewhere or at home will be recruited from outpatient Sinai affiliated clinical practices.
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).
Prospective, open-label, single-arm, multicentre Phase 3 study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, tolerability, and safety of subcutaneous human immunoglobulin (Newnorm) in patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human) GC5107 in pediatric subjects with Primary Humoral Immunodeficiency (PHID).
With the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 and the COVID-19 pandemic, there is an urgent need to understand the impact of infection on immunodeficient individuals. Whilst co-morbidities (such as diabetes, cancer, arterial hypertension, heart disease...) have been documented in people infected with SARS-CoV-2, there is currently no information on the consequences and outcomes for individuals with primary immunodeficiencies (PID). Following the 1st phase of the survey (launched by Isabelle Meyts (ESID), Nizar Mahlaoui (CEREDIH & IPOPI) and Kate Sullivan with Stuart Tangye (IUIS), that gave an idea of the number of affected PID patients and the impact of SARS-CoV-2 and directly focusing on obtaining this top level of information), we are launching the 2nd phase: "COPID19". COPID19 survey is a secured online GDPR compliant platform based in Paris (Imagine Institute). It has been approved by the Paris-Necker-Enfants malades IRB and Ethics Committee. However, this retrospective survey is designed for global distribution. Data can be entered by a health care professional (mostly clinicians) through a personal login and password. Each documenting person will have access to his/her own patients' data. COPID19 require a greater level of information than the 1st phase. The eCRF will be open to evolutions depending on progresses in our knowledge of this pandemic.
