Active clinical trials for "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).

A phase 2b, open label study to assess the safety and efficacy of increasing doses of pulsed, inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) in subjects with pulmonary fibrosis and sarcoidosis on long term oxygen therapy followed by a long term extension study

Background: It is important to accurately assess the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of patients with liver diseases, particularly cirrhosis, to deliver care and adjust the drugs' posology. Purpose: The frequency of chronic renal failure is underestimated in patients with advanced liver disease and the difficulty to assess kidney failure justifies the investigator's study, which aims to describe, by means of a population pharmacokinetic model, the evolution of plasma and urinary concentrations of iohexol, an effective non-ionic, water-soluble contrast agent which is used in radiographic procedures, in cirrhotic patients.

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.

Aim of this study is to investigate the effects of an Oxymizer pendant nasal cannula in hypoxemic patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis during walking.

This study evaluates the effects of a structured exercise (The LFN-exercise protocol) program plus diet, on cerebral hemodynamics (cerebral blood flow) and hepatic hemodynamics (portal pressure), as well as on nutritional status (body composition and nutritional markers) in order to facilitate the prescription of exercise in patients with cirrhosis.

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.

This study aims to assess the effects of a resistance exercise training program on heart rate variability in a group of children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis. The study design is a randomized controlled trial.
