Active clinical trials for "Lung Diseases"

The purpose of the study is to prove the clinical superiority of respiratory rehabilitation software "Redpill Breath" and evaluate the clinical improvement effect by 6-minute walk test of the software, compared to the manual rehabilitation management for those who need respiratory rehabilitation(COPD, Asthma, Lung Cancer, etc.)

TQC3721 suspension for inhalation is a PDE3/4 inhibitor developed by Chia Tai Tianqing Pharmaceutical Group Co., LTD., which can simultaneously achieve bronchial smooth muscle relaxation and anti-inflammatory effects. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-parallel, phase II trial of the efficacy and safety of inhaled TQC3721 suspension/placebo at different doses in patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Objective To evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of TQC3721 inhalation suspension in the treatment of moderate to severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

This study is open to children and adolescents with interstitial lung disease (ILD) that causes lung fibrosis. This is a study for people who took part in a previous study (study 1199-0337, InPedILD™) and for people who are between 6 and 17 years old and have fibrosing ILD. This study tests a medicine called nintedanib. Nintedanib is already used to treat different types of lung fibrosis in adults. The purpose of the study is to find out how well long-term treatment with nintedanib is tolerated in children and adolescents. All participants take nintedanib capsules twice a day. Participants are in the study for at least 6 months or until nintedanib or other treatment options become available outside of this study. During the first 2 years, they visit the study site between 9 and 11 times. Afterwards, they visit the study site every 3 months. The doctors collect information on any health problems of the participants.

Beyond pulmonary complications, COPD presents with extrapulmonary manifestations including reduced cognitive, cardiovascular, and muscle function. While exercise training is the cornerstone in the non-pharmacological treatment of COPD, there is a need for new exercise training methods. The COPD-HIIT trial intend to investigate the effects and mechanisms of 12 weeks supramaximal high-intensity interval-training (HIIT) compared to moderate intensive continous training (MICT) in people with COPD and matched healthy controls on important clinical outcomes. The trial also intends to compare the effects of 24 months of exercise training (supramaximal HIIT or MICT) to usual care in people with COPD on brain health, cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle power; in people with COPD.

To compare the safety/efficacy of the robotic-assisted lobectomy/segmentectomy (RAL/S) with the video-assisted lobectomy/segmentectomy (VAL/S) for lung resection. Video-assisted lobectomy/segmentectomy (VAL/S) for lung resection is divided into uniport group and multiple- port group.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of PRA023 in participants with SSc-ILD .

Main objective: To compare the level of physical activity (PAL) at 12 months in patients with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) between those who completed a health education program and those who did not. Study patients. Subjects older than 35 years; diagnosis of moderate to very severe COPD (FEV1 <80% predicted), established at least 3 months; current or former smoker with an accumulated consumption >10 packs x year; and hospital admission for COPD exacerbation. Design. Randomized, parallel and open-label clinical trial, controlled with conventional treatment. Intervention: During hospitalization, selected patients will receive conventional treatment. At discharge, they will be randomized (1:1) to control group [treatment and follow-up according to conventional clinical practice] or intervention group [in addition to conventional treatment and follow-up, the patients will be referred to a nursing consultation for perform two health education sessions, at 15 and 30 days after hospital discharge]. Measurements. At 15 days and 12 months after discharge, the following determinations will be made: anthropometric characteristics; clinical evaluation (smoking history, date of COPD diagnosis, comorbidities, current medication; health care utilization; moderate or severe COPD exacerbations); questionnaires (mMRC, Charlson, COPD-specific co-morbidity test (COTE), COPD Assessment Test (CAT) and LCADL), spirometry and six-minutes walking test; and evaluation of daily physical activity using an accelerometer.

"Antisynthetase syndrome (ASS) is one of the most severe inflammatory myopathy (IM), due to pulmonary involvement (interstitial lung disease, ILD). Until now, the most commonly used immunosuppresive therapy in Europe is Cyclophosphamide followed by different immunosuppressive drugs as maintenance therapy, including Azathioprine (and so called " European Strategy "). In the USA however, the first-line immunosuppressive treatment is Tacrolimus (so called " American Strategy "). None of these two different strategies has ever been studied prospectively, and there is no clear comparison of short and long-term treatment efficacy and tolerance. Thus, there are yet no evidences helping the clinicians in the therapeutic management of patients with ASS-related ILD. The aim of this study is therefore to compare both strategies as first line treatments or in relapsing patients : CATR.PAT study is a 52 weeks, randomized, comparative, controlled, open-labeled, phase III, therapeutic clinical trial, comparing two treatment strategies."

Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a benralizumab in patients with moderate to very severe COPD with a history of frequent COPD exacerbations and elevated peripheral blood eosinophils (≥300/μL). Eligible patients must have a history of ≥2 moderate and/or severe COPD exacerbations in the previous year despite receiving triple (ICS/LABA/LAMA) background therapy for at least 3 months and ICS-based dual inhaled treatment for the remainder of the year. Eligible patients must also have an elevated blood eosinophil count. The treatment period will be of variable duration and will continue until the last patient has the opportunity to complete a minimum of 56 weeks, at which point all patients will complete the study. The primary endpoint will be analyzed at Week 56.

The clinical significance of pulmonary embolism (PE) limited to the subsegmental pulmonary arteries, so called isolated subsegmental pulmonary embolism (SSPE), remains controversial. Whether isolated SSPE represents "true" PE, a clinically more benign form of PE, a physiologic lung clearing process, or a false positive result (artifact) is currently unclear and hence, whether patients with isolated SSPE benefit from anticoagulant treatment is uncertain. Despite growing evidence from observational studies that withholding anticoagulation may be a safe option in selected patients with isolated SSPE (i.e., those without concomitant deep vein thrombosis, cancer, etc.), most patients with isolated SSPE receive anticoagulant treatment, which is associated with an increased risk of bleeding. The overall objective of the randomized controlled SAFE-SSPE trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of clinical surveillance without anticoagulation compared to anticoagulation treatment in low-risk patients with isolated SSPE.
