Active clinical trials for "Cystic Fibrosis"

It is the goal of the proposed study to compare the efficacy, as assessed primarily by sputum weight, of these two different devices (the Electroflo 500 and VEST therapy) for airway clearance (AC) in CF patients with mild to moderate lung disease, who have stable lung health and perform AC at home as part of their routine therapeutic regimen.

Safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics following single doses

The Lung Clearance Index (LCI) is a non invasive measure of lung function that is more sensitive than FEV1. It can be used to measure lung function in children younger than 6 years of age. Therefore, it has a future role in assessing novel therapeutics in the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) population. As such, determining if it can be used as a short term pharmacodynamic biomarker is paramount.

This Phase 1 study in F508del-CFTR homozygous CF patients is being conducted to assess the pharmacokinetics and absorption dynamics of N91115 compared with healthy subjects in order to identify an initial starting dose for Phase 2 trials.

The purpose of this study is to assess whether inhalation of 7% hypertonic saline (HS) twice daily for 48 weeks reduces structural lung disease as assessed by computed tomography (CT) in comparison with inhalation of 0.9% isotonic saline (IS) in preschool children (ages 3 to 6) with cystic fibrosis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacodynamic (PD) and pharmacokinetic (PK) effect of VX-561.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of VX-121 combination therapy in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF).

The study will assess if administration of high-dose vitamin D and a commonly used prebiotic (inulin) is effective to reduce gastrointestinal dysbiosis and to improve critical intestinal functions in Cystic Fibrosis with the additive or synergistic effects of the combination of vitamin D + inulin.

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of ABBV-3067 given alone and in combination with various doses of ABBV-2222 in adults with Cystic Fibrosis who are homozygous for the F508del mutation.

Regular bronchial clearance is essential in patients with cystic fibrosis for their bronchial health. SIMEOX® (Physio-Assist, Aix en Provence, France) is an innovative medical device for the drainage of the bronchial tree. By changing the rheological properties of mucus, SIMEOX® helps to mobilize secretions and assists their transport to the upper airways. This technology is based on fundamental research on bronchial mucus rheology. At the present time, SIMEOX® device is mainly used over a short period at the time or after an exacerbation in healthcare structures (hospitals, physiotherapy practices, postcare, and rehabilitation units, etc…). The clinical effects observed in the short term encourages long-term autonomous use by the patients themselves. The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the efficiency and acceptability of SIMEOX® used at home by the patient himself for bronchial clearance in patients with cystic fibrosis.
