Active clinical trials for "Cystic Fibrosis"

This study evaluated the long-term safety and tolerability of elexacaftor (ELX), tezacaftor (TEZ), and ivacaftor (IVA) triple combination (TC) treatment in participants with cystic fibrosis (CF).

This is a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label and roll-over study in subjects who are 12 to <24 months of age at initiation of Lumacaftor/Ivacaftor (LUM/IVA) treatment.

CHF 6333 is a medicinal product on development for the treatment of cystic fibrosis and non-CF bronchiectasis and undergoing clinical testing. It has not yet been approved by the authorities for the treatment of these diseases. CHF6333 is an inhaled anti-inflammatory which mechanism of action is based on the inhibition of Human Neutrofil Elastase. The safety and tolerability of single and repeated ascending doses of inhaled CHF 6333 was previously investigated in healthy subjects: information was gathered on the uptake, distribution and excretion of the medicinal product being tested (pharmacokinetics). In this current clinical trial CHF 6333 will be tested in patients(CF and NCFB) for the first time. Three dose level will be tested during the first part of the study, as single administration. One repeated dose will be administered in the second part of the study.

Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) is a condition that is caused by the inadequate pancreatic enzymes needed for normal digestion and is commonly associated with a wide range of chronic diseases, including cystic fibrosis (CF), chronic pancreatitis (CP), and pancreatic cancer. This study will assess clinical symptoms when participants with CF or CP are treated with Creon with alternate source of active drug. Creon is an approved drug for the treatment of EPI due to CF or CP. This study is subject-blinded which means participants will not know the source of the study drug they are given. Approximately 30 adult participants with CF or CP will be enrolled at approximately 15 sites across the Unites States. Participants will receive oral capsules of CREON for 112 days and will be followed for 30 days. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic or via telemedicine. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

This is a single center, randomized, double-blind, cross-over trial (with a follow-on single-blind safety evaluation stage), assessing a ready-to-drink nutritional supplement used without PERT ("PERT-free"), nutritional supplement for blood lipid levels, safety and tolerability compared to a standard of care nutritional supplement used concomitantly with PERT.

This study will evaluate the effects of elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ELX/TEZ/IVA) on cough and physical activity using wearable technology in CF participants.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of elexacaftor (ELX)/tezacaftor (TEZ)/ivacaftor (IVA) in participants with CF who are 12 years of age or older.

Evaluate the feasibility of a randomized controlled trial of non-surgical urinary incontinence (UI) management options for women with CF. The investigators will complete a pilot, feasibility study (n=30) to compare tolerability and symptom relief in women with CF and UI. Subjects will be recruited from the University of Pittsburgh Cystic Fibrosis Center after demonstrating bother from UI on initial phone script. Participants will undergo UI questionnaires and undergo a pelvic examination, non-invasive bladder scan ultrasound and a provocative stress test and then be randomized to either a disposable urethral support device (Impressa®), an absorbent product (Speax Reusable Underwear), or Pelvic floor muscle therapy. The primary outcome will be to determine the feasibility and tolerability of these options. Hypothesis: All three non-surgical UI management options for women are feasible (as measured by 80% adherence to treatment assignment over 7 days) and tolerable (as measured by patient report via questionnaire). The results from the proposed aims will provide important information about the experiences and symptom burden of women with CF and UI. Importantly, the investigators will also be able to answer the important questions of "Can it work?" and "Does it work?" as the investigators seek to construct the definitive, adequately powered trial of these therapies in women with CF and UI.

Cystic Fibrosis is the most prevalent fatal genetic disease affecting Canadian children and it primarily characterized by a thickening of pulmonary secretions and impaired mucociliary clearance. Chest physiotherapy has been widely used as a standard treatment for sputum mobilization and clearance for individuals with CF. Percussion is one such technique of chest physiotherapy for loosening trapped music within the lungs and can be completed manually or facilitated with a percussion cup. Unfortunately, the exclusive Canadian supplier for the widely use percussor cup has stopped distributing the cups, leaving many hospitals and therapy clinics searching for alternatives to continue airway clearance treatment. The goal of this project is to compare alternative palm cup solutions to the standard, and recommend safe alternative(s) that caregivers can have easy access to.

This is a first in human study of ETD001 a new drug being developed for the treatment of cystic fibrosis. The study is a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind interventional study to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of single and multiple ascending doses of inhaled ETD001in healthy male and female subjects.
