Filter by:Study of the clinical evolution at 10 years of children from the SAMP cohort (severe asthma, eosinophilic or not, allergic or not) in order to understand the different possible evolutions of these phenotypes at different ages.
Asthma is severe when it cannot be controlled with maximum-dose inhaled therapies while management of comorbidities and other precipitating or aggravating factors has been optimized. Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a complex bronchopulmonary disease resulting from immunological reactions against Aspergillus Fumigatus. The development of a model of bronchial epithelium generated from patients with chronic lung disease will allow the modeling of bronchial tissue to understand the formation of these mucus plugs. This study aims to validate this model The investigators propose to verify the feasibility of obtaining and comparing two epithelia in two populations based on the following experiments: Differentiation of an Induced Pluripotent Stem cell (iPSC) clone derived from blood sample (Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells) of Type 2 inflammation (T2) severe asthma and Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis (ABPA) in order to obtain differentiated bronchial epithelia in vitro.
This study aims to generate real-world data on the characteristics of patients receiving benralizumab to assess early PRO parameters as well as long-term treatment effects in the Gulf cooperative council (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Oman, and Qatar), Latin America (Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia), and India. It is anticipated that the data generated will provide practical, patient-focused real-world evidence and enhance communications between patients and physicians in an objective and structured manner to ensure better disease control in patients under benralizumab treatment.
To evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and immunogenicity of BAT2606 in healthy China male subjects.
This is a phase II, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, parallel group, placebo-controlled clinical study to evaluate the effect of three doses of TQC2731 on Annualized Asthma Exacerbation Rates(AAER) in adult subjects with poor control of severe asthma. It is estimated that 220 subjects will be included. The subjects will receive TQC2731 (70 mg Q4w, 210 mg Q4w, 420 mg Q4w) or placebo (Q4w) administered by Subcutaneous (SC) in the ratio of 1:1:1:1. The study comprised a 5 to 6-week screening period, a 52-week treatment period and a 12-week follow-up period. During the treatment period, the study drug will be administered from day 0 until week 48. The study drug was not administered at the 52nd week.
Rationale: Dupilumab has proven to be effective and safe in several large randomized controlled trials. However, study populations in RCT's represent only a small proportion of severe asthma patients treated in real life circumstances. Therefore, real-life studies provide data complementary to RCT's derived from a more diverse and heterogeneous group of patients. This study is unique in that it represents a large population of European patients that are not represented in the Global Registry. Objective: To collect and analyse efficacy and safety data in severe asthma patients treated with dupilumab in a real-life setting. Study design: Single center, retrospective cohort analysis of severe asthma patients treated with dupilumab, as decided by the treating physician. Setting: Severe Asthma Expert Center Franciscus Gasthuis & Vlietland, Rotterdam Study population: All patients that started with dupilumab from jan 2019 (early access program) until June 2020 are eligible for the study. They should be 18 years or older, with severe T2 high asthma and treated with at least one dose of dupilumab. Main study parameters/endpoints: - Primary endpoint: To assess changes in annual exacerbation rate between baseline and after 12 months treatment in severe asthma patients treated with dupilumab. - Secondary endpoints: To collect data on ACQ, OCS use, FEV1, treatment response rate, influence of co-morbidities and safety. Methods: Exacerbation history and patient characterization will be done at baseline. We aim to include patients in the analysis that had at least one administration of dupilumab (intention-to-treat). Treatment response evaluation is done at 12 months. Final evaluation of efficacy and safety is done at 12 months of treatment. We aim to enroll at least 120 patients in the study. Data collection will be done in Castor Electronic Data Capture. Of the 120 patients scheduled for inclusion, all have already started treatment and data will be collected retrospectively at the predefined time points. Patient data will be handled confidentially. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Since this is a retrospective cohort analysis there are no extra visits, interventions or procedures needed. Therefore, there is no increased burden or risk for the patients involved.
The Korea-UK Precision Medicine Intervention in Severe Asthma (PRISM) study aims to identify molecular phenotypes of severe asthma by analyzing multi-omics data including genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metagenomics, and metabolomics.
Eosinophilic inflammation in the small airways of patients with severe asthma is considered to be an important marker of disease severity. In clinical trials, treatment with mepolizumab reduces exacerbation rates by almost a half along with modest improvements in symptom scores and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) early after the first month of commencing mepolizumab treatment. However, there is an apparent discrepancy between major patient-reported outcomes and lung function that should be explored. It has recently been reported that mepolizumab improves small airway function in severe eosinophilic asthma as detected by multiple-breath nitrogen washout test. The improvement in small airway function was seen rapidly after the first mepolizumab injection and was associated with a sustained response in the majority of patients. However, gaps in knowledge about the choice of device, gas, and standardization across systems are key issues leading the committee to conclude that multiple-breath nitrogen washout test is not ready for use as a clinical trial endpoint in asthmatics. The investigators hypothesize that early improvement in small airway function may be a significant contributor to the therapeutic response of anti-IL-5 monoclonal antibody therapy in patients with severe uncontrolled eosinophilic asthma. The investigators speculate that SAD could be effectively evaluated using IOS. Consequently, this study could lead to novel SAD subtypes with possible clinical relevance in the context of treatment with anti-IL-5 factor. The investigators hypothesize that healthy individuals and patients with severe controlled asthma would disclose a lesser extent of SAD than patients with severe uncontrolled eosinophilic asthma with or without fixed airway obstruction.
Most of clinical cohorts focused on the course of asthma over time and on the different phenotypes of asthma have investigated children and adults separately. The passage from childhood to adulthood is scarcely explored. In this context, we decided to explore the course of asthma severity from teenage to adulthood in children with severe asthma. The secondary objectives are to assess the quality of life and socioeconomic status in adulthood. This study will be both retrospective (data collected during childhood) and prospective (data collected during adulthood), multicentric and observational
This is a randomized, placebo controlled and double blind study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and clinical activity of FB704A in adult patients with severe asthma. The study comprised a 4-week screening period, a 8-week treatment period and a 12-week follow-up period.
