262 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This Phase I/IIa, multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blinded dose-escalation study evaluated TNX-832 (also referred to as ALT-836 and Sunol cH36) in subjects with suspected or proven bacteria-induced ALI/ARDS. Up to five cohorts of at least six subjects each were originally planned. Subjects were to be randomized in a 5:1 ratio to receive TNX-832 or placebo,respectively, administered as a single bolus infusion over 15 minutes. Three cohorts of subjects were enrolled to the study and safety and pharmacokinetics of the study treatment were evaluated.
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 purpose of this study is to identify biological markers of disease in patients with acute lung injury (ALI) that are predictive of either disease susceptibility or prognosis, or that identify novel targets of therapeutic intervention.

This is a quality improvement study with the purpose of observing and measuring the effects of implementation of a proven standardized lung protective ventilation protocol in the new electronic medical record system iCentra across all Intermountain Healthcare hospitals. Approximately 14,000 records will be accessed for this study from a database of mechanically ventilated patients established for quality improvement purposes. The investigators hypothesize that implementation of a standardized computerized lung protective ventilation protocol across all Intermountain Healthcare hospitals will be feasible, will decrease initial tidal volumes to the target 6 ml/kg PBW, and will improve outcomes. The objectives of this study are to: * Determine if the implementation of lung protective ventilation (with a 6 ml/kg PBW tidal volume ventilation protocol on initiation of mechanical ventilation) improves outcomes in patients with acute respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation * Determine if the implementation of lung protective ventilation (with a 6 ml/kg PBW tidal volume ventilation protocol on initiation of mechanical ventilation) improves outcomes in the sub-group of patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) * Measure compliance with the implementation of a computerized lung protective ventilation protocol at 12 Intermountain Healthcare hospitals
Acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are similar conditions in which the lungs are critically injured by another inflammatory process in the body. Together they affect more than 150,000 people per year in the United States, with mortality approaching 50% and a financial burden estimated to exceed $5 billion. Fluid overload, weight gain, and reduced oncotic pressure (low blood proteins) are associated with prolonged need for mechanical ventilation and mortality in patients with ALI/ARDS. Historical studies have provided conflicting evidence for benefits with colloid or diuretic therapy in ALI/ARDS, but recent clinical trials have demonstrated significant improvements in blood oxygen levels. The mechanisms of these benefits are not yet certain, but appear to relate to albumin's (a protein medicine) specific ability to influence injury and inflammation in the lungs, thus improving the ability for the lung to repair and exchange oxygen. The purpose of this project is to determine the effects of therapies that affect blood proteins on their ability to change the way the lungs and cardiovascular system (heart and blood vessels) function. Special measurements will be taken to understand how these protein medicines change the ability of the lung and whole body to recover from widespread injury, with additional measures of specific heart and lung function. This clinical trial randomizes ALI/ARDS patients with low blood protein levels to receive albumin (a natural blood protein that is known to influence inflammation) or hetastarch (a synthetic blood protein) with diuretic therapy targeted to improve respiratory function. Therapeutic effects on respiratory function and blood oxygen levels, extravascular lung water, oncotic pressure, lung fluid removal, and heart function will be characterized. This trial will advance our understanding of treatment of ALI/ARDS and the factors that affect fluid balance in the lungs of these patients.

To evaluate the proportion of subjects alive and free of respiratory failure (e.g. need for non-invasive or invasive mechanical ventilation, high flow oxygen, or ECMO) and free of the need for continued renal replacement therapy (RRT) on Day 28. The need for continued RRT at Day 28 will be defined as either dialysis in the past 3 days (Day 26, 27, or 28) or an eGFR on Day 28 \<10 mL/min/1.73 m2.
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute lung injury (ALI) are medical conditions that occur when there is severe inflammation and increased fluids in both lungs, making it difficult for the lungs to function properly. Hospital treatment for a person with ALI/ARDS often includes the use of a breathing machine, or ventilator, until the person is able to breathe without assistance. Initiating proper nutrition through a feeding tube early in a person's hospital stay may help to improve recovery, but the optimal timing, composition, and amount of feeding treatments remain unknown. This study will evaluate whether early or delayed full-calorie feeding through a feeding tube is more effective in reducing recovery time and increasing survival rates in people with ALI/ARDS.
This is a prospective, randomized (1:1), double-blind, multi-center, Phase II clinical study to test the safety and efficacy of a recombinant chimeric anti-tissue factor antibody (ALT-836) versus placebo in patients with sepsis and acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS). This study was divided into two parts and the first part of the study has been completed. In the first part of the study, sixty patients were randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive one dose of the study drug or placebo. In the second part of the study, ninety patients will be randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive a multi-dose treatment regimen of single doses every 72 hours up to a maximum of 4 doses of the study drug or placebo, provided there are no safety concerns.

The goal of this observational study is to determine whether a marker of dead space (the end-tidal to alveolar dead space fraction \[AVDSf\]) is more strongly associated with mortality risk than markers of oxygenation abnormality (oxygenation index) and to determine whether dead space (AVDSf) is an important marker of heterogeneity in the inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) treatment effect for children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The study aims are: 1. To validate AVDSf for risk stratification of mortality in pediatric ARDS 2. To determine if there is heterogeneity in treatment effect for iNO defined by AVDSf 3. To detect the association between AVDSf and microvascular dysfunction trajectory and whether iNO therapy modifies this association This is a prospective, multicenter observational study of 1260 mechanically ventilated children with moderate to severe ARDS. In a subgroup of 450 children with severe ARDS, longitudinal blood samples will be obtained to measure plasma protein markers.
This is an observational study in which data already collected from people with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) are studied. ARDS is a life-threatening condition in which fluid builds up in the lungs making breathing difficult. In observational studies, only observations are made without participants receiving any advice or any changes to health care. People who are admitted to ICU for serious illnesses, like ARDS, often experience new health problems during and after their ICU stays. These health problems that may include physical, mental, and/or emotional disorders, are called post-intensive care syndrome (PICS). Identifying these new health problems early can help people by timely treatments and care. In this study, researchers want to identify any health problems that arise after ICU admission in people with ARDS in the United States (US). To do this, researchers will collect information on health problems, treatments, medicines, and healthcare visits in people with ARDS, 1 year before and after an ICU admission. They will then look to see whether the health problems are in areas that have been described as the post intensive care syndrome (PICS). In addition, they will measure healthcare related costs in the one year after admission and compare it to the one year prior to admission. Researchers will also compare this information with data collected for people with pneumonia who did not require ICU admission. This will help them to identify any new health problems arising due to ICU stays. The data will come from participants' medical claims information stored in the Optum Clinformatics Data Mart database from 2016 to 2022. The claims data will only be collected for people in the US. Researchers will collect data from participants admitted to ICU for ARDS for a maximum of 1 year before and after their stay.
The goal of this interventional study is to compare standard mechanical ventilation to a lung-stress oriented ventilation strategy in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Participants will be ventilated according to one of two different strategies. The main question the study hopes to answer is whether the personalized ventilation strategy helps improve survival.
BTI-203 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, Phase 2 proof-of-concept (POC) study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rhu-pGSN plus standard of care (SOC) in subjects with moderate-to-severe ARDS (P/F ratio ≤150) due to pneumonia or other infections. Potential subjects hospitalized with pneumonia or other infections are to be screened within 24 hours of diagnosis of ARDS.
The goal of this observational clinical trial is to learn about the role white blood cells (macrophages) play in lung inflammation in people with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. How does the immune system respond to different kinds of lung injury and inflammation and how do those processes differ from each other? 2. What roles do the cells that live in the lungs (macrophages) play in turning off inflammation? How does their role differ from other cells that are called to the lung to help repair injury (recruited macrophages)? 3. Will more frequent testing of lung cell samples help reduce the time it takes to start treatment for ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and therefore reduce the rates of initial therapy failure? Participants will be in the intensive care unit (ICU) on a mechanical ventilator (machine that helps patients breathe) because they have ARDS or are on a mechanical ventilator for some other reason (control group). The following will happen: 1. Participants will be given 100% oxygen through the breathing machine (mechanical ventilator) for 3-5 minutes. This is called pre-oxygenation. 2. A lung specialist (pulmonologist), a member of Dr. Janssen's research team, or respiratory therapist will place small amount of saline into the lung using a long catheter going through the breathing tube. 3. The fluid will be removed with suction and will be sent to the laboratory for testing. 4. This will be repeated two more times over the course of 10 days, or less if participants are taken off of the ventilator. The procedure will be performed no more than three times. 5. Two nasal brushings will be taken from the participants' nose. 6. Approximately 3 tablespoons of blood will be removed by putting a needle into the participants vein. This is the standard method used to obtain blood for tests. A total of 9 tablespoons will be taken for research purposes over the course of this study 7. Data including the participants age, sex, severity of illness, and other medical conditions will be recorded to determine how these can affect the white blood cells. 8. If bacteria are isolated from the fluid in the participants lung, the participants' physician may choose to place the participants on antibiotics to treat an infection. 9. A follow-up phone call may be made by a member of the research team after discharge from the hospital. At this time, the participant may be invited to participate in the Post-ICU clinic at National Jewish Health.
Recent advances have been made in prevention of the viral infection via vaccines but there is still need for effective treatment options for patients. Novel therapies need to be developed to further improve clinical outcomes. The biggest medical challenge in the response to COVID-19 is ARDS requiring hospitalization in an intensive care setting and ventilator dependence. Intravenously administered umbilical cord derived exosomes and stem cells have been reported in literature to alleviate pulmonary distress in such patients. The purpose of this study is to explore the safety and benefits of intravenous administration of WJPure and EVPure in the treatment of COVID-19 patients with moderate to severe ARDS. .
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) administration of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell derived extracellular vesicles (EVs), ExoFlo, versus placebo for the treatment of hospitalized patients with moderate-to-severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).
In patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) associated with COVID-19 inflammatory syndrome, the administration of Treg cells is a novel treatment complementary to other pharmacologic interventions that potentially can reduce lung inflammation, promote lung tissue repair, and significantly improve clinical outcomes. This trial is to evaluate the impact of a single IV dose of cePolyTregs given to ARDS patients with COVID-19 inflammatory syndrome.
This is a prospective, randomized, two-arm, controlled 30-day investigational pilot trial using the gammaCore Sapphire S non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation (nVNS) device + standard of care (SOC) in newly-hospitalized patients with mild-to-moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI) to prevent the progression towards immunokine storms, systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), severe respiratory distress, and requirement for invasive mechanical ventilation, and death, when compared to SOC alone (the control arm).
This study is a multi-center, randomized, partially double-blind, and placebo-controlled Phase Ib clinical trial of inhaled CO (iCO) for the treatment of sepsis-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and accuracy of a Coburn-Forster-Kane (CFK) equation-based personalized iCO dosing algorithm to achieve a target carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) level of 6-8% in patients with sepsis-induced ARDS. We will also examine the biologic readouts of low dose iCO therapy in patients with sepsis-induced ARDS.
Novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are both associated with the prevailing upper respiratory tract infections caused by the RNA-containing SARS-CoV2 virus of the genius Betacoronavirus of the Coronaviridae family. As both the viral infiltration and infection progress, the host immune system response can be one of a rapidly developing fatal cytokine storm. In the ARDS or NCP ensuing progression, the patient often succumbs to the effects of the hyper pro-inflammatory response, hence contributing to the associated increased mortality as a result of the cytokine storm and associated pathogenesis.
This study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of treatment with related donor Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) matched or haploidentical allogeneic T regulatory cells in patients with COVID 19 induced ARDS. Study treatment will be administered in 1 to 2 doses, with the possibility of a second infusion given 14 days after the initial infusion.
Prone positioning is one of the few therapies known to improve mortality in ARDS. Traditionally, patients are proned for 16 hours per 24 hour period. Some retrospective data suggests improvement may persist beyond 16 hours. We aim to perform a pilot study comparing traditional prone positioning to prolonged prone positioning in patients with COVID-induced ARDS.
