A double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of BI 1015550 over at least 52 weeks in patients with Progressive Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Diseases (PF-ILDs)

Principal Investigator: Hyun Kim

Currently Recruiting

Description: The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of BI 1015550 9 mg bid and 18 mg bid compared to placebo in patients with progressive fibrosing ILDs in addition to patient’s standard of care over the course of at least 52 weeks. New treatments with better tolerability are needed for patients with ILDs to further reduce the decline in lung function and improve quality of life. Based on its anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic properties and the preliminary clinical evidence described, BI 1015550 may provide an additional treatment option to patients with progressive pulmonary fibrosis irrespective of concomitant treatment with standard of care.

Strength and Muscle Related Outcomes for Nutrition and Lung Function in CF (STRONG-CF)

Principal Investigator: Joanne Billings

Currently Recruiting

Description: There are currently two main ways of measuring nutrition in the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) population: body mass index (BMI) and laboratory values. This study plans to look at more ways to measure nutrition, and body composition, like the percentages of fat, bone and muscle in your body. One of the ways we will measure these items is by using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan, which is a type of x-ray. This study hopes to provide researchers with more detailed information about nutrition and body composition in adults with CF.

Description: We are studying a new medication, namilumab, given to treat Chronic Pulmonary Sarcoidosis. We are looking at the effectiveness, how well the drug is tolerated, and the side effects that occur. For the first part of the study, some people will receive the namilumab; the others will receive an inactive (placebo) drug. In the second part of the study, everyone may receive the namilumab.

RARE-OB-16: Rare CFTR Mutation Cell Collection Protocol (RARE) (RARE)

Principal Investigator: Joanne Billings

Currently Recruiting

Description: We are doing the RARE study to learn more about Cystic Fibrosis (CF). CF is caused by mutations in a gene that produces a protein called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). In people with CF, the CFTR does not function correctly. Medications are being developed to help the CFTR function better, but those medications mostly benefit people with common CFTR mutations. There are more than 1,900 mutations of the CF gene. Some of these mutations are rare and found only in a few people. The goal of this research study is to collect specimens (blood, nasal cells, rectal cells) from people with rare CFTR mutations. Another purpose of this study is to create induced pluripotent stem cells or iPS cells. “Pluripotent” stem cells are cells that can be changed into almost any cell type of the body (such as lung or intestine). They can be kept alive and stored indefinitely. There are different kinds of pluripotent stem cells. Inducted pluripotent stem cells can be created from many different kinds of specimens (such as blood, nasal cells, rectal cells). This is different from embryonic stem cells, which can only be derived from embryos. The specimens collected during this study and iPS cells created from them will be stored for use in future research to learn more about CF and study the effect of new medications. This could identify new medications that may help people with rare CFTR mutations.

Senolytics To slOw Progression of Sepsis (STOP-Sepsis) Trial

Principal Investigator: David Wacker

Currently Recruiting

Description: The long-term goal is to test the clinical efficacy of senolytic therapies to reduce progression to and severity of sepsis in older patients. The central hypothesis is that a threshold burden of SnCs predisposes to a SASP mediated dysfunctional response to PAMPs, contributing to a disproportionate burden of sepsis in older patients. The study hypothesizes timely treatment with fisetin will interrupt this pathway.

A multicenter, randomized, adaptive allocation clinical trial to identify the most efficacious dose of the senolytic fisetin to reduce the composite cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal sequential organ failure assessment score at 1 week, and predict the probability of success of a definitive phase III clinical trial.
