Active clinical trials for "Respiratory Tract (Lung and Bronchial) Diseases"

This phase II trial tests the safety of positron emission tomography (PET) guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and how well it works to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), melanoma, and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that has up to 5 sites of progression (oligoprogression) compared to standard SBRT. SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. A PET scan is an imaging test that looks at your tissues and organs using a small amount of a radioactive substance. It also checks for cancer and may help find cancer remaining in areas already treated. Using a PET scan for SBRT planning may help increase the dose of radiation given to the most resistant part of the cancer in patients with oligoprogressive NSCLC, melanoma, and RCC.

The Randomized Controlled Trial of Bleep DreamPort-Eclipse Study is a two-arm, randomized, prospective, non-blinded study to assess the effectiveness of the novel CPAP human interface design to improve leak, AHI, and pressure compared to a traditional nasal mask.

This is a phase I/II, open-label, study of twice-daily oral ladarixin with sotorasib in participants with advanced KRASG12C mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

COVID-19 can trigger a dysregulated immune response, and previous studies have shown that immune modulation can improve outcomes in hospitalized patients. This trial is designed to determine whether intensification of immune modulation early in the course of the disease (while patients are on low flow oxygen) with abatacept (active arm) combined with standard of care (SOC) improves recovery as compared with placebo + SOC (placebo arm). For both groups, intensification of immunomodulation will be provided as part of SOC in case of signs of disease progression (patient requires high flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) or more support) and/or if the patient has rapidly increasing oxygen requirement.

Although non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), c-ros oncogene 1(ROS1), and ret proto-oncogene (RET) gene fusions initially respond well to tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapies, acquired resistance is inevitable. In many of these cases, increased activation of the erythroblastic leukemia viral oncogene homologue (ERBB) or cMet pathways appears to be a bypass signaling mechanism that allows these cancer cells to circumvent the selective pressure from TKIs. Recent data have suggested that these pathways compensate for each other in situations where one pathway is inhibited, leading to "kinase switch" drug resistance. Thus, the expected inhibition of both pathways via treatment with the amivantamab and combination TKI combination may improve overall efficacy by limiting the compensatory pathway activation.

Although most infected people survive the infection, many have persistent sequelae or symptoms, which cause disability or decreased quality of life. The World Health Organization has called on countries to prioritize the rehabilitation of the consequences of COVID-19 in both the medium and long term, as this chronicity is expected to impact the health public and the economy in the coming years. RehabCOVID (also referred to as RehabNautilus) is born from the need to provide solutions to persistent cognitive impairment symptoms of people who have suffered from COVID-19. Thus, we will offer people with long COVID that accomplish inclusion/exclusion criteria to participate in a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive stimulation therapy combined with physical exercise and mindfulness. The current project is a single-blind randomized control study, where we will compare two combined interventions with a control group that will encompass different functional, structural, and biochemical changes and interactions in the brain. We will study the effects that this combined intervention produces in the brain. We expect to gain more insight into the specific neuroplasticity mechanisms of cognitive persistent COVID symptoms.

This is a phase I, open-label, dose-escalation trial of TG6050 administered by single or repeated IV infusion(s).

The objective is To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nasal spray and mouth spray application with hypochlorous acid-containing solution versus placebo as a curative treatment for hospitalized SARS-CoV-2 positive patients And for symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 positive patients followed as outpatients

This study will evaluate the efficacy of two dosing regimens of adagrasib (600 mg BID versus 400 mg BID) in patients with NSCLC with KRAS G12C mutation.

Acute respiratory failure (AFR) is a serious condition that requires prompt and appropriate intervention to prevent further deterioration and improve outcomes. Bronchoscopy is a commonly used diagnostic and therapeutic procedure in patients with respiratory failure. However, traditional low-flow oxygen supplementation during bronchoscopy may not provide adequate oxygenation and ventilation, leading to complications and worsening of the patient's condition. High-flow nasal cannula therapy has improved oxygenation and ventilation in critically ill patients, making it a promising alternative to traditional oxygen supplementation during bronchoscopy. The bronchoscope is passed through the nose during all procedures in our center. HFNC oxygen therapy is applied to both nostrils. The bronchoscope occupies one of the nares receiving oxygen therapy during bronchoscopy. As a result, the application of HFNC needs to be optimized. Therefore, the investigators designed a modified HFNC with a single cannula. However, limited data exist on the safety and efficacy of modified HFNC therapy in patients with respiratory failure undergoing bronchoscopy. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of modified HFNC therapy on the outcomes of undergoing bronchoscopy in patients with ARF. The findings of this study will contribute to understanding the role of modified HFNC therapy in managing ARF and inform clinical practice.
