Active clinical trials for "Cystic Fibrosis"

This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, crossover study that will evaluate the efficacy of LUM/IVA in subjects with CF 12 years of age and older who have at least one A455E mutation.

This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study. Enrollment is planned to occur at approximately 14 global sites. Approximately 24 subjects with CF.

The investigators know that peripheral muscle weakness and exercise intolerance are prevalent (56%) in cystic fibrosis (Trooster et al, 2009). Physical inactivity is likely to be an important underlying factor. Those conditions are associated with a poor prognosis (Nixon et al, 1992). The effect of intravenous antibiotherapy on peripheral muscle and physical activity remains unclear. The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of intravenous antibiotherapy on peripheral muscular strength in patients with cystic fibrosis (adults and children) who receive intravenous antibiotherapy for an acute exacerbation or electively (decline in lung function without exacerbation).

28-Day double-blinded efficacy and safety trial of SPX-101 Inhalation Solution in adult subjects with cystic fibrosis.

Part 1 of this trial will enroll healthy volunteers into a single ascending dose (SAD), multiple ascending dose (MAD), and Food Effect (FE) treatment groups. The SAD treatment group is comprised of at least 3 ascending dose level cohorts where healthy adult subjects will be randomized to receive a single dose of either PTI-808 or placebo and will be followed for 7 days post dose. A safety review committee (SRC) will convene after the completion of each cohort to evaluate safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) data. Following the conclusion of the respective SAD level dose groups and after sufficient review of study data and approval by the SRC, a second set of healthy adult subjects will participate in an assigned MAD treatment group. The MAD treatment group is comprised of 3 ascending dose level cohorts where subjects will be randomized to receive either PTI-808 or placebo daily for 7 days and will be followed for 7 days after receiving the last dose. Also following the conclusion of the respective SAD level dose groups, healthy adult subjects will participate in the FE treatment group. Part 2 of this will enroll healthy volunteers to assess the safety, tolerability, and PK of PTI 808 co administered with PTI 801 and PTI 428 to HVs with daily dosing for 7 consecutive days. Part 3 will enroll adult subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) into a MAD treatment group consisting of 2 cohorts. Subjects will receive PTI-808 co-administered with PTI-801 and PTI-428. PTI-808 will be administered daily for 7 consecutive days followed by PTI-808 + PTI-801 + PTI-428 administered daily for 14 consecutive days. Part 4 will enroll adult subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) into 28-day cohorts. Subjects will receive PTI-808 co-administered with PTI-801 with or without PTI-428 versus matching placebo.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of postural exercise program added to pulmonary rehabilitation program on quality of life, exercise tolerance and postural stability in children with Cystic Fibrosis.

The purpose of this study is to find the safest and most effective way to administer IV antibiotics to treat acute pulmonary exacerbations (APEs) in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) that are caused by pathogens, like Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This study will test the safety and effectiveness of two commonly prescribed IV antibiotics: tobramycin and colistin. Though regularly used, not much is known about how these drugs compare with each other in terms of their toxicities, both during short term treatment of an APE and after many treatment courses with these drugs over many years. There are currently no guidelines on the safest and most effective antibiotics to use when treating APEs. We will study kidney function, sputum cultures, and treatment outcomes in patients receiving routine administration of one of these two IV antibiotics. We will also test these outcomes in patients receiving a less frequent dosing schedule for IV colistin. The hope is that this new schedule for IV colistin, which is twice a day and adjusted based on blood and urine tests, will reduce harmful side effects, such as kidney damage, while still being a powerful treatment against CF microbial pathogens.

This postmarketing N of 2 study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of open-label ivacaftor treatment in two sisters with cystic fibrosis and pancreatic sufficiency.

This is a Phase 2, randomized, double blind, placebo and active-controlled, parallel group, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VX-152 in Triple Combination (TC) with tezacaftor (TEZ; VX-661) and ivacaftor (IVA; VX-770) in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are heterozygous for the F508del mutation and a minimal function (MF) CFTR mutation not likely to respond to TEZ and/or IVA therapy (F508del/MF), or who are homozygous for the F508del mutation of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene (F508del/F508del).

This pilot interventional cohort study will examine the effects of intravenous iron in adults with cystic fibrosis and iron deficiency.
