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

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of a-12-week virtual reality exercise program, applied as tele-exercise, on the exercise capacity of children with cystic fibrosis, whose physical activity level is further restricted during the pandemic. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does aerobic tele-exercise increase functional capacity in cystic fibrosis patients? Will there be a difference in treatment outcomes between the virtual reality group and the online exercise group? Participants will be randomized into two groups; virtual reality group and online group. Physical activity will be provided to the virtual reality group in the form of team activities in a virtual environment, and the other group will be provided online exercises at their home. For this purpose, virtual reality headsets will be provided to patients to give the impression of a natural, immersive environment and realistic experience. Researchers will compare exercise compliance and functional capacity between the virtual reality group and the online group.

Cesarean section is a major abdominal surgery and major challenge of it is to manage the pain and make the patient mobile .In spite of the advantageous effects of kinesio taping and diaphragmatic breathing, limited, data reported to study analgesic effects on pain management and mobility restoration in acute phase of cesarean section.. This study will aim to meet the dares which are associated with cesarean section by reducing the incisional pain associated with improvement in physical mobility as a non-pharmacological treatment.

The main objective is to evaluate the overall effectiveness of MAD therapy as a first line treatment, including both efficacy in terms of reduction in OSA severity as well as objective compliance, in patients recently diagnosed with moderate to severe OSA, waiting for a new CPAP device. Upon completion of MAD-therapy, patients will be put on CPAP, allowing for comparison of MAD effectiveness versus the overall therapeutic effectiveness of CPAP therapy in the same patient. Finally, patients' preference for either therapy will be evaluated.

This study is proposed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the RUTI vaccine in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Therapeutic vaccination of RUTI would stimulate the immune response not only against growing bacteria, but also against bacteria in a latent state that are less sensitive to antibiotic treatments. Therapeutic vaccination in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis could improve the speed of recovery of patients without inducing the appearance of drug resistance.

We conduct this study to investigate the efficacy of triple therapy (high-dose glucocorticoids + cyclophosphamide + calcineurin inhibitor) compared with dual-therapy regimens (high-dose glucocorticoids + cyclophosphamide/calcineurin inhibitor) and whether it reduces the risk of poor pulmonary prognosis in patients with moderate to high risk anti-MDA5+ DM.

350 participants will be enrolled in this study. The target population are patients newly diagnosed with OSA and starting CPAP treatment. User accessible customizable comfort settings (Response setting, expiratory pressure relief (EPR) on/off and EPR level, and Ramp) will be set to either default (control group), or personalized for that participant (active treatment group). Usage will be recorded for the first 1 month of CPAP treatment, to determine if customizing comfort settings can improve CPAP compliance

In the COVID-19 pandemic era, a convenient and effective treatment for pediatric patients is unavailable. A multi-center Chinese clinical trials with the aim to using Interferon-α2b spray inhalation to develop new treatment strategies for the treatment of pediatric patients with mild or moderate type of COVID-19. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy for Interferon α2b spray inhalation as first line treatment.

EGFR mutated NSCLC patiens with CNS metastases have poor prognosis. High-dose furmonertinib (160mg/day) have produced high CNS PFS and ORR in second-line for EGFR T790M mutated NSCLC. Whether EGFR mutated NSCLC with CNS metastases can benefit from first-line treatment of high-dose furmonertinib has not been reported. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of high dose furmonertinib in first-line treatment of EGFR mutated NSCLC patiens.

This is a Phase II, single-Arm, prospective study of neoadjuvant Ensartinib for the treatment of patients with ALK positive, resectable for stage II to IIIB(N2) Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

The purpose of this study is to determine if doxycycline will reduce progression of emphysema in people living with HIV. The secondary objectives are to examine the effects of doxycycline on change in quantity of emphysema, six minute walk distance, patient reported outcomes, ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 second and forced vital capacity. Secondary objectives will also describe the safety and tolerability of doxycycline and determine if doxycycline is associated with development of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections.
