DETACT sEvere asThmAtiC paTients - a Pilot Study
The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of dupilumab treatment on mucus plugging in severe asthma patients with severe eosinophilic asthma. Therefore, the investigators plan to apply computer tomography to investigate mucus plugging and thoroughly examine different airway samples from Type 2-high severe asthmatic patients at a …
NIOSH R21 WTC Asthma
Aim 2: Conduct a pilot RCT of SaMBA-WTC to determine feasibility and preliminary impact in preparation for a fully powered trial. (7M-24M) The investigators will conduct a pilot RCT (n=58) of the SaMBA-WTC model vs. an attention control. Data will be collected on the primary outcomes (asthma control [asthma control …
Biomarkers of Response to Mepolizumab Treatment in Patients With Nasal Polyps With or Without Bronchial Asthma
Mepolizumab is a biologic agent already approved for severe asthma. Recently, there is increasing evidence concerning the benefit of anti-IL5 treatments upon patients with nasal polyposis with or without severe asthma. The novelty of this project is that no biologic agent has yet been fully investigated to identify any biomarkers …
Exploring the Lived Experience of Young Adults With Severe Asthma
Asthma is a serious long-term lung condition caused by swollen airways that narrow. This causes wheezing, chest tightness, and breathlessness. Most asthma is well-controlled with medication. However, 5-10% of asthmatics have severe asthma where treatment does not control symptoms and up to 67% of asthmatics have uncontrolled asthma, caused by …
Pulmonary Condensate: Non-invasive Evaluation of Pulmonary Involvement in Asthma and Cystic Fibrosis.
Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) represents a rich source for countless biomarkers that can provide valuable information about respiratory as well as systemic diseases. Finding non-invasive methods for early detection of lung injury, inflammation and infectious complications in chronic diseases like (CF) Cystic fibrosis or (AB) Bronchial asthma would be highly …
Expressions of Ezrin and Pip5k1α Proteins in Airway Smooth Muscle of Asthmatic Patients
Asthma, a prevalent chronic respiratory affliction, significantly impinges upon the quality of life for affected individuals. Timely and appropriate diagnostic measures, coupled with efficacious therapeutic interventions, are paramount in mitigating exacerbations of symptoms and enhancing the life quality of patients. Ezrin plays an important role in maintaining cell morphology, cell …
IL13 Signaling in Allergic Asthma
This study will investigate the role of dupilumab in the treatment of asthma with comorbid obesity. It is hypothesized that in airway epithelial cells, unique transcriptomic and proteomic expression patterns distinguish allergic and non-allergic patients with asthma and obesity and drive significant differential responses to dupilumab. It is further hypothesized …
Post-authorization Safety Study in North America to Monitor Pregnancy and Infant Outcomes Following Administration of Dupilumab During Planned or Unexpected Pregnancy
The objective is to evaluate the potential effect of exposure to dupilumab in pregnancy compared to the primary comparison group of disease-matched pregnant women who are not exposed to dupilumab, and the secondary comparison group of healthy pregnant women. The primary outcome of the study is major structural defects, and …
Vitamin C to Decrease Effects of Smoking in Pregnancy on Infant Lung Function (VCSIP) Longer Term Follow Up
The overall aims of this protocol are to determine whether prenatal supplementation with vitamin C to pregnant smokers can improve pulmonary function at 10 years of age in their offspring. This is an additional continuation of the Vitamin C to Decrease Effects of Smoking in Pregnancy on Infant Lung Function …
Microbes and Respiratory Illnesses
This study is called the Microbes and Respiratory Illnesses (MARI) Study. Children growing up on farms are exposed to many types of microbes that could be beneficial. It is thought that increased exposure to certain types of microbes early in life helps to develop a healthy immune system and reduce …
