Active clinical trials for "Lung Diseases"

The purpose of this study is to determine the triple combination of beclometasone dipropionate+Formoterol fumarate+Glycopyrrolate bromide is effective for the treatment of severe COPD patients (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)

Umeclidinium/vilanterol (UMEC/VI) is a combination product under development that is used for the treatment of airflow obstruction in patients with COPD. Fluticasone propionate/salmeterol (FSC) is an approved drug that is already in use for the treatment of COPD. This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of UMEC/VI 62.5/25 microgram [mcg] once daily administered via Novel Dry Powder Inhaler (NDPI) compared with fluticasone propionate /salmeterol (FSC) 250/50 mcg twice-daily when administered via ACCUHALER/DISKUS inhaler over a treatment period of 12 weeks in subjects with COPD. Eligible subjects will be equally randomized to UMEC/VI 62.5/25 mcg or FSC 250/50 mcg for 12 weeks. A safety follow-up assessment will be conducted approximately 7 days after the end of the study treatment.

This study investigates the effects of targeted re-treatment of patients who do not recover from an exacerbation of COPD. Half of the patients will receive ciprofloxacin while the other half will receive a placebo.

This study evaluates whether individualized dosing schedule of inhaled bronchodilator is more effective than fixed dosing in reducing airway resistance of intubated COPD patients.

This is a multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, two way cross-over, 12 weeks noninferiority study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of FSC 250/50 mcg capsule-based inhaler and a multi-dose inhaler administered BID in adults with COPD. The primary objective of this study is to establish the non-inferiority of the efficacy of the FSC 250/50 mcg capsule-based inhaler compared to the FSC 250/50 mcg multi-dose inhaler administered BID. The study consists of 6 phases: Pre-screening, Screening/Run-in (3 weeks), Treatment Period 1 (12 weeks), Washout (minimum 4 weeks), Treatment Period 2 (12 weeks) and Follow-up (1 week). The total duration of the study for each subject will be at least 32 weeks.

The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 12 weeks once daily treatment with orally inhaled tiotropium + olodaterol FDC (delivered by the Respimat inhaler) compared with tiotropium and placebo in patients with COPD.

To evaluate in patients with stable Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) the efficacy of statins (simvastatin) on: (1) endothelial function; (2) systemic inflammation; (3)BODE (B: body mass , O: bronchial obstruction, D: dyspnea and, E: exercise tolerance) index; (4) Uric acid; and, (5)vascular growth factors. Design: a 12 weeks randomized (1:1), double-blind, placebo control study. Population: 18 males with stable COPD between 40-80 years of age, exsmokers, with Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) between 30 and 80% predicted post-bronchodilation.

A first sub-analysis of the BACE trial will address physical activity levels in a subgroup of the intervention study with portable validated activity monitors.

The study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-dose, pilot study of orally-administered ivacaftor in subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Subjects will be administered the study drug ivacaftor 150 mg (or placebo) twice daily (BID).

This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of once and twice daily TD-4208 and placebo when administered using a jet nebulizer for 7 days in a cross-over design to patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
