Active clinical trials for "Cystic Fibrosis"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate in patients with cystic fibrosis the effect of Lactobacillus Reuteri (LR) on the rate of respiratory exacerbations and of the infections of both upper respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ivacaftor in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) who have the R117H-CFTR mutation.

The purpose of this study will be to evaluate the effects of a modified formulation of AquADEKs (AquADEKs-2) on markers of inflammation, antioxidant levels and oxidative stress. Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a disease that affects the organs in the body such as the lungs. Some of the damage to the lungs of CF patients may be caused by something called oxidant/antioxidant imbalance and oxidative stress. Oxidation in the body is kind of what happens to an apple when it turns brown after being cut. And, just as a squeeze of lemon juice stops the oxidation of an apple, antioxidants can stop the rusting (or damage) inside our bodies by unstable oxygen molecules called free radicals. Free radicals can help fight off bacteria and viruses but too many of them do damage instead. Our bodies need antioxidants to keep things in balance so we have the right amount of free radicals. Many CF patients also have trouble digesting food and absorbing nutrients like vitamins. Many of the vitamins we rely on are antioxidants, like vitamins A, D, E, K and beta-carotene. In some people with CF, even though they take multivitamins and pancreatic enzymes, they still have low amounts of antioxidants. The investigators are looking to see if taking more vitamins and antioxidants will help CF patients. AquADEKs-2 is an investigational new drug (a drug that has not received approval by the Food and Drug Administration [FDA]). This research study is being done with the AquADEKs-2 compared to a control multivitamin. The study drug, AquADEKs-2 contains standard amounts of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) that are contained in typical CF multivitamin supplements plus several antioxidants including beta-carotene, mixed tocopherols (different forms of vitamin E), coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), mixed carotenoids (lutein, lycopene and zeaxanthin), and the minerals zinc and selenium. The control multivitamin contains standard amounts of vitamins A, B, D, E, and K without additional antioxidant supplementation.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of long-term treatment with lumacaftor in combination with ivacaftor in people 12 years and older with Cystic Fibrosis.

This study will determine the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a single dose of GS-5737 administered with a 2.8% saline solution vehicle in adult subjects with CF.

To evaluate the effect of ciprofloxacin on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ivacaftor and on the pharmacokinetics of VX-661 when administered in combination with ivacaftor

Study to obtain information about the safety and tolerability of tiotropium bromide administered via the Respimat® inhalation device in pediatric (≤11 y.o.) and adolescent/adult (≥12 y.o.) cystic fibrosis (CF) patients after single and multiple doses as well as to obtain pharmacokinetic data for tiotropium in CF patients after single and multiple doses

Aspergillus infection is an infectious complication which frequently occurs in cystic fibrosis. The efficacy of azole therapy in patients with cystic fibrosis with persistent positive sputums for Aspergillus is still unknown. Furthermore, the efficacy of itraconazole and voriconazole in this indication has never been evaluated in a large prospective controlled clinical trial, even though many teams already use it. The ATCF study aims to assess in patients with cystic fibrosis with persistent Aspergillus positive cultures the efficacy of itraconazole and voriconazole on the negativisation of the sputum cultures for Aspergillus.

This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose escalation study to assess the safety and tolerability of 100 mg and 200 mg of inhaled Alpha-1 HC administered once a day for three weeks in subjects aged 18 years and older with cystic fibrosis (CF). The treatment duration in this study was intended to provide multi-dose safety information prior to proceeding to longer durations of exposure.

This study is a multiple within participant crossover study to evaluate the effect of ivacaftor on lung function in participants aged 12 years and older with cystic fibrosis (CF) who have phenotypic or molecular evidence of residual CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) function.
