Active clinical trials for "Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive"

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, 3-way crossover study to evaluate the lung function response to UMEC 62.5 mcg, VI 25 mcg, and UMEC/VI 62.525 mcg, administered once-daily via a novel dry powder inhaler (NDPI) over 14 days in subjects with COPD. The study consisted of Run in Phase (5 to 7 days), Treatment Phase (made up of 3 treatment periods of 14 days each separated by 10 to 14 days Washout Period) and Follow-up Phase (7 to 9 days after completion of final visit or premature discontinuation). Eligible subjects will be randomized to a sequence of UMEC 62.5 mcg, VI 25 mcg, and UMEC/VI 62.5/25 mcg such that all subjects will receive each treatment. Serial spirometry assessments will be conducted on Day 1 and Day 14 and trough spirometry will be conducted on Day 2 and Day 15 of each treatment period. On Day 1 and 14 of each treatment period vital signs will be assessed and adverse event (AE)s will be recorded throughout the total duration of the study (approximately 12 weeks).

This study is a 12-week, multicenter, randomized, double blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled study. The purpose of this study is to replicate the therapeutic benefit of UMEC/VI 62.5/25 microgram (mcg) on health-related quality of life as reflected by St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) scores and symptoms as reflected by rescue medication use observed in the 6 month placebo controlled study (DB2113373). Lung function will be assessed as it provides an objective measure to support the subjective patient reported outcomes of SGRQ and rescue medication use. The study is intended to provide additional evidence to support the use of UMEC/VI for the maintenance treatment of COPD Approximately 496 subjects will be randomized from approximately 62 centers in order to ensure 422 subjects complete 12 weeks of treatment. Eligible subjects will be randomized to UMEC/VI 62.5/25mcg or placebo in a 1:1 ratio. All treatments will be administered once-daily in the morning via a Dry Powder Inhaler (DPI). There will be a total of 5 clinic visits. The total duration of study participation will be approximately 15 weeks. All subjects will be provided with albuterol/salbutamol to use as needed for the relief of COPD symptoms throughout the run-in and double-blind treatment periods.

This study will characterize the dose response of TD-4208 after 7 days of dosing in subjects with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

The investigators designed the current study with the main objective of determining whether Whole Body Vibration Training (WBVT) alone improves muscular force and/or modifies the functional capacity parameters in severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients referred to a rehabilitation programme.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a disease characterized by small airways inflammation and obstruction. The small airways disease produces hyperinflation (air trapping), which increases with exercise. Continuous positive airways pressure may reduce small airways obstruction and therefore air trapping. Pulmonary function tests including lung volumes at rest and and after exercise will be measured. In addition, exercise endurance time before treatment and after treatment will be measured.

Capnometry-Assisted Breathing Training for COPD (CATCH) is a behavioral intervention that aims to promote optimal, self-regulated, mindful breathing. A portable capnometer is used in-session to provide continuous visual feedback of Respiratory Rate (RR), End-Tidal Carbon Dioxide Tension (ETCO2), and breathing pattern. The tailored CATCH intervention will emphasize a slow, quiet, regular, nasal breathing pattern, as well as pursed lips breathing (PLB). CATCH is once weekly for 6 weeks, for a total of 6 sessions; each session is approximately 60 minutes long. The principal investigator will implement the CATCH intervention. The principal investigator will implement the CATCH intervention. Patients will use the Address Stress app on a smart phone or computer tablet as part of their home breathing exercises.

This is a multicenter study in Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infected adult patients who also have advanced cardiac disease or advanced lung disease.

The objective of this pivotal study is to evaluate the relative bioavailability of SYN010 HFA Inhaler and Symbicort 160/4.5μg in healthy volunteers with charcoal block.

This study is evaluating the use of a respiratory device, the Acapella Vibratory Positive Expiratory Pressure (PEP) Therapy device, in patients admitted to the hospital with a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation.

This study is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group study to compare once daily nebulized Revefenacin with Spiriva once daily delivered via the HandiHaler® on lung function in subjects with COPD and a Low Peak Inspiratory Flow Rate.
