The primary objective of Part 2 of this study is to determine the efficacy of pretreatment with CNTO 3157 compared with placebo in attenuating the respiratory manifestations of inoculation with HRV-16 in adult subjects with mild to moderate asthma.…
With this study we aim to provide insight in the role of pulmonary RAS in the pathogenesis of ARDS in neonates and children. This study is performed in the context of a comparative study assessing the impact of age on the pulmonary RAS in ARDS. We…
To determine the efficiency, safety and health care costs of a strategy using routine nebulisation of mucolytics and bronchodilators four times daily, with a strategy of nebulisation on a strict clinical indication only, in mechanical ventilated…
Primary objective• To assess the effect of use of a walk-bike in IPF patients for 8 weeks on health-related quality of life, measured with the St. George Respiratory Questionnaire, at baseline, week 9 and week 18, in patients with IPF.Secondary…
In this study we want to objectively measure the effect of Pirfenidone on cough in patients with IPF.
Our hypothesis is that antibodies of COPD patients contribute to inflammatory processes leading to cell death, and that the level of cytotoxicity differs between COPD patients and healthy volunteers. The prime aim is to detect differences in…
The primary objective of this study is to determine if ambrisentan is effective in delaying disease progression and death in subjects with IPF.Secondary objectives include evaluation of the safety and effect of ambrisentan on development of…
We postulate that exhaled molecular profiling obtained from *breathprints* by electronic nose:1. Will discriminate eosinophilic asthma from non-eosinophilic asthma2. Is associated with individual biomarkers and specific proteomic profiles in induced…
1) To assess the effectiveness of a physical exercise training programme in patients with mild to moderate COPD in the primary care setting, in comparison with usual care. 2) To analyse the main physiological (and behavioural) characteristics of…
Primary Objective: 1) To investigate if the intestinal permeability acutely increases during physical activity (submaximal cycle ergometry or ADL test) in clinically stable patients with moderate to severe COPD; 2) To investigate if the intestinal…
Compare induction of anaesthesia using etomidate versus ketanest on hemodynamics, as well as microcirculatory consequences in patients admitted to the ICU and in need of ventilatory support.

To study the effect of reducing the pulmonary circulation to normal levels on the pulmonary leak index in patients suffering from severe ARDS.
The aim of the current proposal is to investigate the effects of changes in lifestyle, food intake, physical activity and health related behavior during adolescence on development of asthma, allergy and other chronic diseases. Health outcomes that…
The primary objective is to study differences in global lung aeration as defined by the center of ventilation before and during use of neuromuscular blockade. The secondary objective is to study differences in regional lung aeration before and…
which particles can be found in induced sputum of construction workers? What is the composition, size and concentration of quartz particles measured in sputum of the different exposure groups?
Research questions:Is the chronic inflammatory response in COPD caused by a dysfunction of regulatory T cells?1. Is the number of Tregs decreased in COPD?2. Is the function of the Tregs impaired in COPD? And if so,a. Is this associated with a…
To evaluate the efficacy of inhaled rhDNase in addition to conventional treatment in children with an atelectasis during mechanical ventilation.
The aim of the extended follow-up of the PIAMA cohort is: To investigate changes during the ages of 8 to 11-12 years in lifestyle, nutrition, physical activity and health related attitude and behavior that are relevant to the development of asthma,…
PRM-151 is being developed for potential therapeutic use to prevent, treat and reduce fibrosis. This study will provide an assessment of the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of PRM-151 after administration of ascending…
