Summary: The CR-AZI Study will assess the immunomodulatory effects of Azithromycin for pediatric Critical Asthma.

Summary: The goal of this Phase 3 clinical trial is to compare ARINA-1 (a nebulized immunomodulatory agent) plus Standard of Care vs Standard of Care alone. The main question it aims to answer are: * Evaluate the effectiveness of ARINA-1 in preventing bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) progression in participants with a bilateral lung transplant * To evaluate the effectiveness of ARINA-1 on improving ...

Summary: This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multinational, multicenter, parallel-group, Phase 3, 2-arm, study will investigate the efficacy and safety of belumosudil compared with placebo, both administered on top of azithromycin and standard-of-care regimen of immunosuppression in male or female participants at least 1 year after bilateral lung transplant, who are at least 18 years of age ...

Summary: Bronchiectasis is a chronic inflammatory respiratory disease defined as the irreversible dilatation of one or more bronchi and is associated with chronic and frequently purulent expectoration, multiple exacerbations and progressive dyspnea. Bronchiectasis has a large heterogeneity. Different patients with bronchiectasis may have different etiology, clinical manifestations, and imaging features. Pr...

Summary: This randomized controlled trial evaluates the therapeutic role of azithromycin in acute exacerbations of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (AE-IPF). Baseline classification and randomization were guided by the SCALE-IPF framework (Severity Classification and Lung Evaluation for Prognosis in IPF; locked April 2023) to ensure balanced disease severity across arms. End-of-study analyses included descrip...

Summary: Men who have sex with men (MSM) are at high risk for gonorrhea and chlamydia in Kenya, where nucleic acid amplification testing is not feasible and most infections therefore go undiagnosed. We propose an open-label randomized clinical trial with 2900 participants assigned to WHO-recommended periodic presumptive treatment (PPT) or doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis (doxyPEP), compared to standar...

Summary: MAC lung infections are a growing public health problem. The ATS / IDSA 2007 guidelines for the treatment of these non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections recommend the use of a macrolide or azalide (clarithromycin or azithromycin), rifampicin or rifabutin and ethambutol. For MAC disseminated infections, several studies have compared combinations containing clarithromycin or azithromycin and foun...

Summary: Malnutrition underlies 45% of child deaths, and has far-reaching educational, economic and health consequences. Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) affects 17 million children globally and is the most life-threatening form of malnutrition. Community-based management of acute malnutrition using ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) has transformed outcomes for children with uncomplicated SAM, but those ...

Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of azithromycin in the eradication of nasopharyngeal carriage of N. meningitidis

Summary: While asthma therapy is becoming more individualized based on asthma phenotypes, more research is needed to tailor newer therapies to individuals. Inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) medications are the foundation of care for all individuals with persistent asthma. But ICS use is not without possible long term side effects. This study will compare two currently available approaches to reduce AEX in prima...

Summary: Amoxicillin is recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) as adjunctive therapy for the treatment of uncomplicated severe acute malnutrition (SAM). Because children with uncomplicated SAM may have asymptomatic infection due to immune suppression, presumptive treatment with a broad-spectrum antibiotic may be beneficial by clearing any existing infection and improving outcomes. Two randomize...

Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding contezolid works to shorten the length of treatment in mycobacterium avium pulmonary disease in adults. It will also learn about the safety of extended usage of contezolid. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does adding contezolid to standard regimen decrease the bacterial load, lesion severity and improve the life quality of patients wi...
