Active clinical trials for "Lung Diseases, Obstructive"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the systemic exposure and pharmacodynamics of two doses of nebulized fluticasone/formoterol combination as compared to the monocomponents.

This study compares indacaterol with tiotropium in terms of bronchodilation over 52 weeks

To evaluate a novel advanced physiological monitoring system to improve nocturnal non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in Neuromuscular disease (NMD), Chest wall disease (CWD), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome (OHS) patients. By enhancing sleep comfort, adherence to ventilation will increase which, in turn, will improve ventilatory failure, quality of life and reduce length of admission during initiation of therapy. We aim to incorporate this technology into routine clinical practice.

Patients with COPD experience exacerbations that are a major cause of morbidity. Exacerbations are associated with increased airway and systemic inflammation and those experiencing frequent exacerbations demonstrate increased inflammation in the stable state. Tiotropium has been shown to reduce exacerbation frequency and it might be postulated that this is due to a reduction in inflammation. The study will compare airway inflammation and exacerbation frequency in patients with COPD on tiotropium or placebo.

To demonstrate the non-inferiority of QVA149 110/50 µg o.d. to fluticasone/salmeterol 500/50 µg b.i.d. in terms of trough Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) (mean of 23 hours 15 min and 23 hours 45 min post QVA149 dose) following 26 weeks of treatment in patients with moderate to severe COPD

To demonstrate the free combination of budesonide and indacaterol is as efficacious as fluticasone and salmeterol in patients with COPD

The objective of this pivotal study is to evaluate the relative bioavailability of Synflutide HFA 250/25 Inhaler and SeretideTM 250 EvohalerTM in healthy volunteers with charcoal block.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether AZD7624 can reduce acute Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) exacerbations in patients on COPD maintenance therapy with a history of frequent acute exacerbations.

The primary objective of this study was to investigate patients acceptability / preference of Berodual® Respimat® inhaler as compared to the conventional Berodual® Metered Aerosol (MA) inhaler. Ease of handling and assembling the Respimat® inhaler at home under real life conditions was also evaluated.
