Active clinical trials for "Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive"

This study will assess the effects of single oral doses of SB681323 and prednisolone on biomarkers in induced sputum and blood COPD patients

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group study. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of umeclidinium/vilanterol (UMEC/VI) and fluticasone propionate/salmeterol (FSC) in subjects with COPD. Subjects who meet the eligibility criteria at Screening will complete a 7 to 14 day Run-in period. At the end of the run-in period, approximately 710 eligible subjects will be equally randomized (to complete at least 568 evaluable subjects) to one of the 2 treatment groups for 12 weeks: 1. UMEC/VI 62.5/25 micrograms (mcg) administered as one inhalation once-daily in the morning via the Novel dry powder inhaler (NDPI) + placebo administered as one inhalation each morning and evening via single multidose powdered inhaler (ACCUHALER/DISKUS) or 2. FSC 250/50 mcg administered as one inhalation each morning and evening via ACCUHALER/DISKUS + placebo administered once-daily in the morning via NDPI. A safety Follow-up assessment will be conducted approximately 7 days after the end of the study treatment (Early Withdrawal, if applicable). The total duration of subject participation will be approximately 15 weeks.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic condition. Its evolution can be aggravated in some periods by an increase of the symptoms (above all the cough, the dyspnoea and the quantity of sputum purulence). This is known as exacerbation and it is the most frequent cause of hospital stay, urgences services and death in COPD. A physiotherapy program is carrying out in patients attending to the Hospital because of an exacerbation. The hypothesis of this study is that a physiotherapy program added to a medical treatment increase the ventilatory function, the physiques variables, decrease depression and anxiety and improve the quality of life. Additionally, it is going to be assessed the effect of physiotherapy in time using phone calls and visits to the patient's home.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of ASM-024 administered as a dry powder for inhalation formulation to patients with GOLD 2 or GOLD 3 COPD.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of JNJ 49095397 in participants with symptomatic moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy, safety and tolerability of aclidinium bromide/formoterol fumarate and salmeterol/fluticasone propionate in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

Many individuals with chronic lung disease have night time symptoms that disrupt their sleep. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of an air purifying device (PureNight, Halo Innovations, Minneapolis, MN) on sleep disruptions measured by a "sleep watch" (actigraph) and individual perception of sleep quality.

This will be a Phase IIIb multicentre, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, 12-week parallel group study evaluating the effects of once daily in the morning treatment of FF/VI Inhalation Powder versus Fluticasone Propionate/Salmeterol Inhalation Powder twice daily on lung function in COPD subjects. Subjects will be screened and will enter a 2-week, single-blind (placebo), Run-In Period to evaluate the subject's adherence with study treatment, study procedures and assessment of disease stability. At the end of the Run-In Period, subjects will return to the Clinic and who meet all of the Randomization Criteria will be randomized to double-blind study medication (12-week treatment period). Subjects will be randomized to receive either FF/VI 100/25 via NDPI or Fluticasone Propionate/Salmeterol 250/50mcg via ACCUHALER/DISKUS. Matching placebos will be available in NDPI and ACCUHALER/DISKUS. Each morning (approximately 6-10 AM) subjects will take 1 inhalation from the NDPI followed by 1 inhalation from the ACCUHALER/DISKUS. Each evening (approximately 6-10 PM), approximately 12 hours after the morning dose with blinded study medication, subjects will take 1 inhalation from the ACCUHALER/DISKUS. Subjects will return to the clinic at the end of the treatment period. A follow-up phone contact will be performed approximately 7 days after the last clinic visit. The overall study duration (Screening to Follow-up) for each subject is approximately 15 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of single doses of LAS190792 administered by inhalation to patients with mild persistent asthma and moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and also to assess the ability of LAS190792 to produce bronchodilation (opening of the airways).

Targeted Lung Denervation (TLD) Therapy will be a safe method to ablate the airway nerve trunks that travel parallel to and outside of the main bronchi and into the lungs to achieve targeted lung denervation and potentially improve breathing and quality of life for patients suffering from COPD. Use of the IPS System will be technically feasible in accessing the target treatment location and delivering RF energy to the target treatment location.
