Active clinical trials for "Fibrosis"

This is a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label and roll-over study in subjects who are 12 to <24 months of age at initiation of Lumacaftor/Ivacaftor (LUM/IVA) treatment.

This study aimed to evaluate whether synchronous vagus nerve-preserving laparoscopic splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection with intraoperative endoscopic variceal ligation (SVEL) is effective and safe, and to determine whether SVEL can effectively decrease the incidence of postoperative esophageal variceal re-bleeding.

The purpose of this study is to provide an initial evaluation of the effectiveness of BMS-986278 in participants with lung fibrosis, to demonstrate the safety of BMS-986278, and provide information on the drug levels of BMS-986278 in these participants.

Blood products are commonly used before invasive procedures in patients with end-stage liver diseases despite cirrhosis being a thrombophilic state. Traditional coagulation tests [namely International Normalised Ratio (INR) and Platelets count] are known to be unreliable in predicting bleeding risk before invasive procedures and in representing the real coagulation status of cirrhotic patients. Notwithstanding they are still used to guide blood products administration before invasive procedures. Rotational Thromboelastometry ( ROTEM) has been shown to be effective in detecting signs of hypo-hypercoagulability possibly being an alternative method to guide blood products transfusion. The aim of this randomized controlled study is to evaluate the efficacy of ROTEM as a guide for blood products transfusion in cirrhotic children undergoing invasive procedures.

A Phase 2a, multicenter, 4-part, randomized, double-blind, dose-ranging, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of once-daily treatment with PLN-74809 in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Part 1 is a study to demonstrate that Creon (pancrelipase) delayed release (DR) capsules manufactured with a modernized process (MP) is non-inferior to currently marketed pancrelipase DR capsules in participants with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) due to cystic fibrosis (CF), as measured by coefficient of fat absorption (CFA). Part 2 is a study to demonstrate that Creon (pancrelipase) manufactured with an alternate active pharmaceutical ingredient site (AAPIS) is non-inferior to currently marketed active control (Creon®) in participants with EPI due to CF, as measured by CFA. Safety is evaluated in each part.

This study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacodynamic effect of VX-445, tezacaftor (TEZ), and ivacaftor (IVA) when dosed in triple combination (TC) in Cystic Fibrosis (CF) subjects 6 through 11 years of age with F/F and F/MF genotypes.

"This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled multi-centre study to investigate safety and tolerability and to provide pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics information of orally inhaled multiple doses (80 mg, 160 mg or 320 mg) of the nebulised neutrophil elastase inhibitor POL6014 in patients with Cystic Fibrosis. The controlled inhalation will occur via the eFlow® nebuliser system (manufacturer: PARI Pharma GmbH, Germany)".

This is a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, multicenter, exploratory Phase 2 study including participants with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), investigating GLPG1205 in addition to the local standard of care (defined as receiving nintedanib, pirfenidone, or neither nintedanib nor pirfenidone).

Although some studies have brought some evidences about the efficacy of positive expiratory pressure (PEP)-mask therapy as an airway clearance technique, yet it is not clearly understood what is the contribution of this technique in modifying peripheral ventilation inhomogeneity, a typical feature of patients with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). The aim of this study is to investigate how PEP-MASK affects ventilation inhomogeneity in children and adolescents, with moderate to normal CF lung disease by the change in acinar airways (Sacin), lung clearance index (LCI) and conductive airways (Scond) indexes derived from nitrogen multiple-breath washout test (N2MBW).
