25 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The mortality rates associated with COVID-19 related ARDS (COVIDARDS) have varied from observational reports from around the world. This has ranged from 44% (28 day mortality) in the UK to 36% (28 day mortality from ICU admission) in Italian studies, to 32% (all-cause 28 day mortality) in Spain. Predictive models have identified risk factors for COVID-19 hospitalized patients' mortality to include male sex, obesity, age, obesity, comorbidities including chronic lung disease and hypertension, as well as biomarkers including high levels of D-Dimer, LDH and CRP. In addition, practice patterns, such as drugs that were administered, timing of mechanical ventilation and adherence to established lung protective ventilation protocols are known to be variable across sites and have changed over time. The investigators propose to analyze outcomes for patients with COVIDARDS within the NorthCARDS dataset (a dataset of over 1500 patients with COVID-19 related ARDS across the Northwell Health System in the NYC metropolitan region and Long Island, NY) to understand differences in hospital survival and in the time to liberation from mechanical ventilation, specifically looking at the associations between baseline patient factors, changes in biomarkers, respiratory function and hemodynamics over time, and treatments administered. The analyses will be based on three hypotheses: H.1. Worsening trajectories of: oxygenation index (OI), respiratory system compliance (C), and inflammatory markers will be associated with lower hospital survival. H.2. Higher duration of deep sedation and paralytics will be associated with greater time to liberation from mechanical ventilation. This risk will be increased in patients with worsening trajectories of OI, C, and inflammatory markers over time. H.3. Type of mechanical ventilator, specifically the time on portable mechanical ventilator, is associated with hospital mortality and with inability to liberate from mechanical ventilator despite controlling for risk factors of changes in OI, C and Inflammatory markers over time, and the use of paralytics and deep sedation.

It is hypothesized that instillation of Liothyronine Sodium (T3) into the airspace will be safe, well tolerated, and will increase alveolar fluid clearance and decrease inflammation in patients with ARDS, reflected in improved oxygenation index (OI) and oxygenation saturation index (OSI).
The histologic hallmarks of lung inflammation include accumulation of inflammatory cells in the airspaces and interstitium, injury to alveolar epithelial and endothelial cells, loss of epithelial-capillary integrity and accumulation of edema fluid in the interstitium and airspaces. Accordingly, for alveolar repair to occur inflammation must be halted, debris and inflammatory cells removed, injured tissue cells replaced, and capillary barrier function re-established. Macrophages are key players in all of these. Here the investigators hypothesize that resident alveolar macrophages and recruited macrophages serve completely different functions, acting independently (i.e. division of labor) yet cooperatively (synergism).
The goal of this interventional crossover study, in intubated and mechanically ventilated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) patients, is to compare two positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration techniques regarding: respiratory mechanics, gas exchange, changes in aeration, ventilation/perfusion matching its impact on cardiac function, especially the right heart (RH). The PEEP titration techniques are: PEEP selection based on low PEEP/high FiO2 table ("PEEPARDSnet") and lung recruitment maneuver (LRM) plus PEEPdec titration based on the best compliance of the respiratory system("PEEPLRM").

The study is a prospective, randomized, controlled investigation designed for comparison of two groups for the reduction of respiratory distress in a CoViD-19 population, using gammaCore Sapphire (nVNS) plus standard of care (active) vs. standard of care alone (SoC), the control group. The gammaCore® (nVNS) treatments will be used acutely and prophylactically. The aims of this study are to summarize and compare the incidence of clinical events and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in patients randomized to use of gammaCore Sapphire plus standard of care vs standard of care alone in patients hospitalized for CoViD-19. Secondary objectives are demonstrate the safety of gammaCore Sapphire use in patients hospitalized for CoViD-19.
This study uses the AirGo band to monitor changes in tidal ventilation in spontaneously breathing patients with COVID-19 associated respiratory failure. It aims to recognize patterns of ventilation associated with worsening respiratory failure in this patient population. If successful, this study will lead to the development of new robust methods for real-time, continuous monitoring of respiratory function in patients with respiratory failure. In turn, such monitoring methods may enable improvements in the medical management of respiratory failure and timing of interventions.
The purpose of this research study is to learn about the safety and efficacy of human umbilical cord derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (UC-MSC) for treatment of COVID-19 Patients with Severe Complications of Acute Lung Injury/Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ALI/ARDS).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether fish oil (containing omega-3 fatty acids) given enterally is safe and effective in reducing lung and systemic inflammation seen in acute lung injury.
Acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) is a severe lung condition that causes respiratory failure. Individuals with ALI/ARDS often require the use of a respirator or artificial breathing machine, known as a mechanical ventilator, while in an intensive care unit (ICU). Past research has shown that improved short-term clinical outcomes result from the use of a protective mechanical ventilation technique for the lungs. This study will evaluate the effects of lower tidal volume ventilation, and other aspects of critical illness and ICU care, on the long-term clinical outcomes of individuals with ALI/ARDS.

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the safety of giving mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to patients who have ARDS. Researchers also want to learn if these cells can help control ARDS when given with drugs that are routinely used to treat ARDS. In this study, participants will receive 1 infusion of MSCs. This is an investigational study. MSC infusions for the treatment of ARDS is investigational. Up to 20 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.
This is a Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study to assess the safety and efficacy of a single dose of Allogeneic Bone Marrow-derived Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (hMSCs) infusion in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). This study is the extension of the Phase 1 pilot study (NCT01775774) and Phase 2a study (NCT02097641).
Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) is a multi-factorial disease process that is the end result of an immature, surfactant deficient lung that has been exposed to hyperoxia, mechanical ventilation and infection. These conditions initiate an inflammatory response characterized by elevated inflammatory cell infiltrates and proinflammatory cytokines that lead to the development of significant acute and chronic lung injury. The study drug, rhCC10, is a recombinant version of natural human CC10 protein. Native CC10 is produced primarily by non-ciliated respiratory epithelial cells, called Clara cells and is the most abundant protein in the mucosal fluids in normal healthy lungs. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, tolerability and anti-inflammatory effects of a single intratracheal (IT) dose of rhCC10 to intubated premature infants receiving positive pressure ventilation for treatment of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) to prevent long term respiratory complications referred to as bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and, more recently, as Chronic Pulmonary Insufficiency of Prematurity (CPIP; asthma, cough, wheezing, multiple respiratory infections). CC10 regulates inflammatory responses and protects the structural integrity of pulmonary tissue while preserving pulmonary mechanical function during various insults (eg. viral infection, bacterial endotoxin, ozone, allergens, hyperoxia). Together these properties suggest that administration of rhCC10 may help to facilitate development of normal airway epithelia and prevent the inflammation that leads to CPIP in these infants. This study is funded by the FDA Office of Orphan Product Development (OOPD).
