Active clinical trials for "Cystic Fibrosis"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate of the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of lumacaftor (VX-809) alone and when coadministered with ivacaftor (VX-770) in participants with cystic fibrosis, homozygous or heterozygous for the F508del-CFTR mutation.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of denufosol 60 mg TID in pediatric CF patients 2 to 4 years of age

OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the safety and efficacy of gene transfer into the nasal epithelium using Ad5-CB-CFTR, an E1-deleted adenovirus vector containing the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene, in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). II. Determine whether ion transport abnormalities in CF airway cells can be corrected.

This is an open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Aptalis' (formerly Eurand) pancreatic enzyme product (PEP) microtabs in pediatric participants under age 7 with cystic fibrosis (CF) and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI).

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the effects of multiple doses of rifampin on the single-dose pharmacokinetics of VX 770.

This study is designed to show how well tobramycin inhalation powder works and how safe it is when produced by a modified manufacturing process

This study assesses the aerosol delivery characteristics (measured by nebulization time, serum and sputum tobramycin pharmacokinetic parameters) and safety of tobramycin administered for inhalation by PARI eFlow rapid electronic nebulizer (no compressor) vs. PARI LC PLUS Jet Nebulizer (with compressor) in subjects with cystic fibrosis.

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is an inherited disorder in which mucus-secreting glands in the lungs produce considerable quantity of thick, sticky secretions that clog the airways, promote bacterial growth and lead to chronic obstruction, inflammation and destruction of the airways. The purpose of this study is to collect data about the resolution of the chronic inflammatory state in addition to assure the safety of the therapy in CF patients.

This is a study to determine the safety and tolerability of 28 days of daily dosing of 560 mg of Arikayce™ versus placebo and daily dosing of 70 mg and 140 mg of Arikayce™ versus placebo in patients who have Cystic fibrosis (CF) and chronic infection due to pseudomonas aeruginosa.

The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of 26 weeks treatment with inhaled mannitol in subjects with cystic fibrosis. Previous studies have demonstrated improvements in lung function, mucociliary clearance, changes in physical properties of mucus, 24 hour sputum weight and quality of life. The results of this study are to further investigate and confirm these findings in addition to examine the effect on antibiotic use and chest infections. It is hypothesised that inhaled mannitol will have beneficial effects compared to a control treatment. An open label phase of 26 weeks duration will follow the blinded 26 week phase. During the open label phase all subjects will receive active treatment.
