A Study of 2 Doses of MAP0010 in Asthmatic Children
AsthmaThe purpose of this study is to examine the safety of two doses of MAP0010 in asthmatic children, 12 months to 8 years of age, over a 40-week period.
Dietary Interventions in Asthma Treatment: Sprouts Study
AsthmaAllergySulforaphane (SFN) is a naturally occurring isothiocyanate that is a potent inducer of Phase II enzymes which play a critical role in preventing oxidative stress (via activation of Nrf2). Broccoli sprouts (BS) contain the richest source of SFN. The main objectives of this study are to test the effect of broccoli sprouts (BS) on biomarkers of oxidative stress (OS), inflammation, basophil activation, and clinical outcomes in mouse allergen-induced asthma by (1) determining if BS improves lung function and airways symptom responses in mouse-sensitized adults with asthma undergoing environmental mouse allergen challenge (EMAC), (2) examining the effect of BS on OS, inflammation, and basophil activation, and (3) examining the effect of BS on changes in OS, inflammation, and basophil activation after EMAC.
Treatment of Ragweed-Allergic Asthma With an Immunostimulatory Drug
AsthmaAllergy4 moreThis study will test the effectiveness of an investigational treatment for patients with ragweed-induced asthma, sometimes called fall seasonal asthma. The treatment being tested is a series of anti-ragweed shots. The purpose of the study is to determine whether a short series of injections with Amb a 1-immunostimulatory oligodeoxyribonucleotide conjugate (AIC) can cause a long-lasting reduction in the symptoms of asthma that are caused by fall hay fever allergies.
Safety and Efficacy Study of the Use of Sodium Pyruvate Bronchodilation in Asthmatics
Moderate AsthmaSodium pyruvate in sodium chloride solution will be delivered by nebulization to the lungs. It is believed that this administration will produce bronchodilation in asthmatics as determined by improvement in FEV1. FEV1 is a measure of lung function, and will be determined after administration of sodium pyruvate. The study is a blinded, so subjects may receive either the sodium pyruvate or a sodium chloride placebo. The primary endpoint will be the improvement of FEV1 after 15 minutes in subjects receiving sodium pyruvate compared to the FEV1 of subjects receiving the sodium chloride placebo.
Prevention of Asthma With Levocetirizine (36 Month Treatment) in Young Children Suffering From Eczema...
AsthmaProlongation of the EPAAC™ trial - NCT00152464 (The Early Prevention of Asthma in Atopic Children). 36 months study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of levocetirizine (LCTZ) in preventing the onset of asthma in young atopic children.
Effect of Anti-IgE in Non-Allergic Asthma
AsthmaThe purpose of this study is to find out if omalizumab is effective in treating non-allergic asthma. The US Food and Drug Administration has approved the use of omalizumab to treat moderate to severe allergic asthma.
Inducible Laryngeal Obstruction in Severe Asthma in Severe Asthma
Asthma ChronicVocal Cord DysfunctionThe first part will be a comparative cross-sectional study to identify the frequency of ILO and other comorbidites among participants with asthma compared to a group of reference subjects without asthma, matched for age- and gender and race. The second part will be a longitudinally observational study study following participants for one year after the cross-sectional study. The Maat-scores ILO-symptoms and asthma-outcomes longitudinally will be evaluated, .
First-In-Human Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Immunogenicity, and Pharmacokinetics...
AsthmaThis is Phase I first-in-human trial evaluating the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and pharmacogenomics of LQ036 via inhalation and IV infusion. The study will be divided into 4 parts: Single Ascending Dose, Multiple Ascending Dose, and Intra Venous with a target of 88 healthy volunteers and 30 patients with mild Asthma.
Teva Asthma Predictive Analytics Study
AsthmaThis trial is being completed to determine baseline inhalation parameters and patterns of use in patients receiving treatment with TEVA digital inhalers, to develop predictive models for asthma exacerbations and response to biologics using data collected from these devices. Enrolled participants will complete questionnaires along with other study specific procedures. Additionally, in-person and phone visits will be performed.
Inflammatory and Immune Profiles During a Severe Exacerbation in Preschool Asthmatic Children (<5...
AsthmaAsthma/wheeze begins in the first years of life and is the most common chronic disease in preschool children (< 5 years). Different phenotypes have been suggested: Episodic-Viral Wheeze (EVW), absence of symptoms between exacerbations, among which Severe Intermittent Wheeze (SIW); and Multiple-trigger wheeze (MTW). The determinants of these different clinical phenotypes and their evolution have been poorly studied. The purpose of this study is to assess preschool wheezers at the time of a severe exacerbation: clinical features and biological determinants (virus/bacteria, molecules and cells involved in the inflammation) and at steady state (8 weeks later) and to follow them up until the age of 7. The investigators hypothesize that the nature of the inflammation at the time of the exacerbation is different between these clinical phenotypes and may be associated with different clinical and functional trajectories
