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

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of orally administered nirmatrelvir/ritonavir compared with placebo/ritonavir to improve quality of life in non-hospitalized adult participants suffering from post-acute COVID-19 syndrome.

This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (UCMSC)-derived extracellular vesicle nebulization inhalation therapy for the treatment of chronic cough after COVID-19 infection. The main objective is to assess whether UCMSC-derived exosome nebulization inhalation therapy alleviates chronic cough after COVID-19. Participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire to help researchers evaluate their cough severity and to record their scores before nebulization inhalation of UCMSC-derived exosomes. Participants will receive either continuous nebulized inhalation of UCMSC-derived exosomes for 5 days, twice daily, or no treatment. Researchers will compare the experimental and control groups to evaluate the safety and efficacy of UCMSC-derived exosomes for the treatment of chronic cough after COVID-19 infection.

A new drug called azeliragon could be used to treat patients with COVID-19 but the researchers don't know. In this study, they are learning the effects of azeliragon patients hospitalized for COVID-19.

The consequences of the Intensive Care Unit and the Covid-19 disease are still uncertain. However, many studies are bringing out often psychological and dramatic consequences for many COVID-survivor patients. Among the ex-covid patients discharged from our Intensive Care Unit and with at least one covid-related psychological consequence, we want to evaluate the effectiveness for long-term consequences of COVID-19 of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) or usual care.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and objective response rate of SKB264 as combination with therapy in subjects with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.

The study is researching an investigational drug called fianlimab (also called REGN3767) with two other medications called cemiplimab and chemotherapy, individually called a "study drug" or collectively called "study drugs" in this form. 'Investigational' means that the study drug is not approved for use outside of this study by any Health Authority. Examples of chemotherapy drugs include the following: Paclitaxel plus carboplatin, and Pemetrexed plus cisplatin. The study is being conducted in patients who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of the study is to see how effective the combination of fianlimab, cemiplimab, and chemotherapy is for treating advanced NSCLC, in comparison with cemiplimab and chemotherapy. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: What side effects may happen from taking the study drugs How much of each study drug is in your blood at different times Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drugs (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects) How administering the study drugs might improve your quality of life

Individuals affected by SARS-CoV-2 infection may subsequently be affected by the so-called post-COVID syndrome. The aim of the present study is to investigate the effects of a multimodal 10-week group program consisting of self-help strategies based on complementary medicine approaches of TEM (Traditional European Medicine), TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), and TIM (Traditional Indian Medicine) in addition to treatment as usual versus treatment as usual alone (no active study intervention/waiting list). Endpoints of the study include subjective quantitative and qualitative as well as objective (physician-reported) variables.

This is a clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of LAM-001 as an add-on therapy for the treatment pulmonary hypertension.

The study is researching an investigational drug, called BNT116, in combination with cemiplimab. BNT116 and cemiplimab will each be called a "study drug", and together be called "study drugs" in this form. The study is focused on patients who have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aims of the study are to see how safe and tolerable BNT116 is in combination with cemiplimab and to see how effective BNT116 in combination with cemiplimab is compared to cemiplimab by itself at treating your cancer. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: What side effects may happen from receiving the study drugs How much study drug is in your blood at different times Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug(s) (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)

The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is high in the United States and is a major health concern. This disorder is linked to numerous heart, blood vessel and nervous system abnormalities, along with increased tiredness while performing exercise likely because of a reduced blood supply to skeletal muscles. The gold standard treatment of OSA with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in many cases does not lead to significant improvements in health outcomes because the recommended number of hours of treatment per night is often not achieved. Thus, development of novel treatments to eliminate apnea and lessen the occurrence of associated health conditions is important. The investigators will address this mandate by determining if repeated exposure to mild intermittent hypoxia (MIH) reduces heart and blood vessel dysfunction and tiredness/ fatigue experienced while exercise performance. The investigators propose that exposure to MIH has a multipart effect. MIH directly targets heart and blood vessel associated conditions, while simultaneously increasing upper airway stability and improving sleep quality. These modifications may serve to directly decrease breathing episodes and may also serve to improve usage of CPAP. Independent of its effect, MIH may serve as an adjunctive therapy which provides another path to reducing heart and blood vessel abnormalities that might ultimately result in improvements in exercise capacity and reverse performance fatigue in individuals with OSA.
