The purpose of this study is to determine if BC residents receive, understand and implement public health messages related to wildfire smoke exposures, and to better understand the reach of these messages and identify opportunities for future improvement.
The purpose of this study is to understand how patients with asthma and COPD have been affected by the changes to the health care system as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
This extended access study will assess the long-term safety and tolerability of bardoxolone methyl in qualified patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) who previously participated in controlled clinical studies with bardoxolone methyl.
To demonstrate the effectiveness of riociguat as replacement of phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (PDE-5i) therapy in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients
This study assesses the safety and efficacy of bardoxolone methyl relative to placebo in patients with connective tissue disease-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension to determine the recommended dose range and evaluate the change from baseline in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) following 24 weeks of study participation.
This study aims to determine the efficacy and safety of QAW039 (Dose 1 and Dose 2), compared with placebo, when added to GINA steps 4 and 5 standard-of- care (SoC) asthma therapy (GINA 2015) in each of the groups (patients with severe asthma and high eosinophil counts and all patients with severe asthma).
The objective of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy and safety of an initial triple oral treatment regimen (macitentan, tadalafil, selexipag) versus an initial dual oral treatment regimen (macitentan, tadalafil, placebo) in newly diagnosed, treatment-naïve patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension.
A Multicentre, Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel Group, Placebo Controlled, 12-Week, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Effect of Tralokinumab on Airway Inflammation in Adults with Asthma Inadequately Controlled on Inhaled Corticosteroid.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate specific alterations in immune cell mechanisms related to neutrophil function as detected by PI3Kdelta-dependent changes in messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) extracted from induced sputum in patients experiencing an exacerbation of COPD, with or without treatment with GSK2269557. The efficacy of treatment with GSK2269557 will also be measured using functional respiratory imaging (FRI) and spirometry. This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study.
Primary Objective:
To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab (SAR231893 [REGN668]) in patients with persistent asthma.
Secondary Objectives:
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of dupilumab. To evaluate the effect of dupilumab in improving patient-reported outcomes including health-related quality of life.
To evaluate dupilumab systemic exposure and incidence of antidrug antibodies.
The overall objective is to assess the effect of once daily tiotropium + olodaterol fixed dose combination compared to 5 µg tiotropium (both delivered with the Respimat® inhaler) on moderate to severe COPD exacerbation in patients with severe to very severe COPD
Prospective, single-arm, longitudinal, international, multicentre study in a real-world cohort of adult severe asthma participants being conducted to assess the relationships between asthma biomarkers and asthma-related health-outcomes for a period of 52 weeks.
The disease being studied is asthma. The main objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of the recruitment goals and also the logistical issues related to use of tele-health technology in developing electronic asthma action plan (eAAP) and communicate with asthma patients in a time period of 24 months. The goals are: 1) enable asthma patients to self-manage their asthma symptoms. The secondary, 2) help care providers to intervene appropriately based on the patient's health status.
