Active clinical trials for "Asthma"

This is a study to investigate the reliability, ruggedness and safety of the top mounted actuation indicator (TMAI) when used with Levalbuterol HFA MDI.

The purpose of this study is to assess the treatment effect of montelukast 10mg on the primary endpoint of Asthma Control Questionnaire(ACQ), over a 8-week period, in persistent asthma patients with or without allergic rhinitis.

Asthma is a common, serious illness among children in the United States. While a low dose of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) may effectively control symptoms, some children may require additional medications to maintain adequate asthma control. This study compares the effectiveness of a higher dose of ICS, ICS combined with a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA) medication, and ICS combined with a leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA) medication at reducing the impact and severity of asthma exacerbations that occur in children with mild to moderate persistent asthma.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of the fixed combination asthma drug FlutiForm HFA MDI with its two components administered alone, fluticasone propionate and formoterol fumarate, and with placebo in adult and adolescent patients with mild to moderate asthma.

This is a randomized, multi-center, parallel-group, active-controlled, double-blind study evaluating the effects of mometasone furoate (MF) dry powder inhaler (DPI) on bone mineral density (BMD) in subjects with asthma. The mean percent change in lumbar spine BMD from the averaged baseline value (the average of the two scan results prior to treatment) to the endpoint of treatment time point (the average of the last two valid post-baseline scan results during treatment) for the comparison of MF DPI 400 mcg daily in the evening versus montelukast (ML) 10 mg daily in the evening.

The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and tolerability of the fixed combination beclomethasone/formoterol pMDI with that of fluticasone/salmeterol pMDI in patients with moderate to severe asthma

Primary purpose of the protocol is to determine if IMA-638 prevents a mild asthma attack by a subject with mild asthma inhaling an allergen.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of Alvesco® (Ciclesonide) compared with usual asthma care in the primary care setting. Patients with a history of asthma for at least 6 months and who, in the opinion of the physician, meet the clinical requirements for treatment with inhaled steroids (ICS) will be enrolled. They will either receive Alvesco® or usual care.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of SYMBICORT® pMDI (a medication approved by the Food and Drug Administration(FDA)) in the Hispanic population.

The primary purpose of this study is to gather additional safety data for subjects who previously completed the one-year study entitled: "Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial of the Alair System for the Bronchial Thermoplasty Treatment of Asthma" (Protocol #0602-20, NCT00214526) sponsored by Asthmatx, Inc. Study Subjects who were assigned to the Control Group who elect to participate in this extension study will be followed for an additional two (2) - year period beyond the PREDECESSOR STUDY'S one-year endpoint. Subjects treated with the Alair System who elect to participate in this extension study will be followed for an additional four (4)- year period beyond the PREDECESSOR STUDY'S one-year endpoint. All treatments with the Alair System were completed in the PREDECESSOR STUDY (NCT00214526). The current study is designed solely to collect longer-term follow-up data on the effects of the treatments. The data will be of the same type that was collected in the PREDECESSOR STUDY (NCT00214526), including spirometry, physical examinations, review of symptoms, use of maintenance and rescue medications, and response to Methacholine challenge.
