Lung Immune Challenge Study: Controlled Exposure to Inhaled Resiquimod (R848)
Respiratory viral infections can be a cause of significant illness, particularly in vulnerable individuals as seen in the COVID-19 pandemic. An underactive or overactive immune response can lead to ineffective resolution of inflammation after an infection, especially in people with airway diseases such as asthma. A better understanding of immune …
Impact of the Implementation of a Telemedicine Program on Patients Diagnosed with Asthma
Introduction: Asthma is one of the most common chronic respiratory diseases worldwide. Despite the extensive knowledge of the condition and available therapeutic options, severe asthmatic patients have poor disease control in 50% of cases. Objective: To assess the impact of implementing a mobile application (ESTOI) in patients diagnosed with asthma …
Individualized Diagnosis and Treatment of Extraesophageal Reflux in Patients With Chronic Cough
Chronic cough is a very unpleasant symptom, significantly reduces the patient's quality of life, and bothers the neighborhood. A very common cause or co-factor of chronic cough is extraesophageal reflux (EER). The aim of the project is the precise diagnosis of EER in patients with chronic cough (in patients with …
Viral Mucosal Reprogramming
This is a mechanistic, controlled, open-label, single-site study to evaluate the effects of RG-RV16 inoculation on airway mucosal gene expression and airway remodeling in 25 healthy controls (HC), in 25 allergic rhinitis subjects (AR) with cat dander allergy, and in 25 allergic asthmatic subjects (AA) with cat dander allergy. Three …
Effect of CPAP Treatment in Patients With Severe Uncontrolled Asthma: The ASTHMA-SLEEP Trial
The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of CPAP treatment on asthma control in patients with severe uncontrolled asthma and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)
Canadian Consortium on Airway Mucus Occlusions in Asthma, COPD and Chronic Cough
Chronic lung diseases affect one in five Canadians, causing symptoms such as cough, breathlessness, and wheeze. Despite advancements in medical care, these conditions not only impact individuals and their close circles but also present substantial clinical and economic challenges at a national level. This grant is dedicated to addressing three …
The Effects of Positive Airway Pressure on the Mucolytic Effects of NAC (TEAM)
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if positive pressure during inspiration will improve penetration of aerosolized N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) into airway mucus plugs in the lungs of patients with asthma or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does delivery of aerosolized …
APP-based Medical Device for Education and Training of Inhalation Technique
Primary aim: To investigate if app-based education and training of inhalation technique improves the rate of successful inhalation techniques compared with control group at 6-12 weeks follow-up visit. Secondary aims: To evaluate the feasibility, usability, and safety of the investigational during the study period. Study design: Two-armed, parallel-designed, individual single-blinded …
Evaluation of 3D Magnetic Resonance Spirometry: Comparison with Spirometry in Healthy Subjects and Patients with Respiratory Pathologies (asthma, COPD, Bilateral Lung Transplant)
Spirometry is now the gold standard technique for assessing lung function in humans. From the shape of a flow-volume curve measured while the patient, trained by the practitioner, performs forced breaths, the forced vital capacity (FVC) and the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) can be deduced and the …
Early Diagnosis and Treatment of Undiagnosed Asthma or COPD: THE UCAP 2 TRIAL
Our research group has found that Canadians with undiagnosed asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have increased respiratory symptoms and worse health-related quality of life. The investigators recently developed and validated an on-line questionnaire to accurately identify these symptomatic, undiagnosed individuals. The investigators will advertise in the community asking …
