PREVENTABLE is a multi-center, randomized, parallel group, placebo-controlled superiority study. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to atorvastatin 40 mg or placebo.

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.

📍 Mayo Clinic · Scottsdale, AZ · +2 more US sites · Get directions →
In this study, a new method will be used to evaluate response to 2 approved biologic therapies, and assess how well each patient responds to each asthma treatment. This study will measure the response to these treatments using genomic and biologic measurements obtained from participants biosamples.

The researchers are trying to determine whether ovarian hormones are associated with aging processes and with the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease in women.

📍 Affinia healthcare, 2220 Lemp Ave · St Louis, MO · +6 more US sites · Get directions →
Purpose: This study aims to improve asthma care by helping clinicians at community health centers prescribe a guideline-recommended treatment called SMART (Single Maintenance and Reliever Therapy). The investigators will provide training and resources to clinicians, give feedback on prescribing patterns, and offer educational tools for patients and providers.
- DepressionDementia / Alzheimer's
📍 NYU Langone Health · New York, NY · +1 more US site · Get directions →
This study will examine the biological factors that may modulate the relationship between depression and the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Since the direction of causation between depression and the biological factors associated with AD is unknown, the only way to understand cause and associated risk is to treat the depressive symptoms and examine the effects on AD biomarkers.

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether treatment with pimavanserin or quetiapine is associated with a greater improvement in psychosis when used in a routine clinical setting to treat hallucinations and/or delusions due to Parkinson's disease (PD) or dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) - collectively referred to as Lewy body disease (LBD).
- COPD (chronic lung disease)Asthma
📍 UCSF Airway Clinical Research Center · San Francisco, CA · Get directions →
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if positive pressure during inspiration will improve penetration of aerosolized N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) into airway mucus plugs in the lungs of patients with asthma or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does delivery of aerosolized NAC with positive inspiratory pressure have a greater effect on mucus plug burden in the lungs than delivery of NAC without positive pressure.

📍 Arthur F Gelb Medical Corporation · Lakewood, CA · Get directions →
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the site and mechanisms responsible for expiratory airflow limitation in chronic, treated, non-smoking, stable asthmatics with moderate to severe persistent expiratory airflow obstruction. Treatment will include inhaled corticosteroids and long acting beta2agonists.
- Asthma
📍 University of Virginia · Charlottesville, VA · Get directions →
Often when people with asthma get a virus caused by the common cold (rhinovirus), they also experience an increase or worsening of their asthma symptoms. The purpose of this study is to see if the study medication dupilumab helps prevent those with mild to moderate asthma from having increased asthma symptoms, after being exposed to an experimental rhinovirus inoculation.

The study is a randomized controlled trial on the effect of emergency department initiation of Airsupra on acute asthma "recurrence" at 3 months and other related outcomes (acute asthma relapse, asthma control).

📍 University of Miami - Converge Miami · Miami, FL · Get directions →
Assess regional changes to perfusion and ventilation from inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) and Fast-acting beta-antagonist (FABA) among adult asthmatics using radiographically derived estimates of regional ventilation (V-distribution), ventilation defect percentage (VDP), and ventilation heterogeneity (VH).

📍 Tekton Research Saint Louis Psychiatry · St Louis, MO · Get directions →
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Zunveyl® over 12 weeks of routine clinical use in adults with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.

📍 Virginia Commonwealth University · Richmond, VA · Get directions →
The proposed study aims to address the critical gaps in understanding the mechanisms of CF (Cognitive Fluctuations) by leveraging recently emerged molecular biomarkers, advanced neuroimaging techniques to assess measures of cholinergic degeneration, and synchronous EEG and assessments of attention. One of the overarching innovations of study is combining all of these assessments into one integrated research plan
- Dementia / Alzheimer's
📍 The University of Texas at Austin · Austin, TX · Get directions →
Nighttime agitation in persons with Alzheimer's disease causes patient suffering, distresses caregivers, and often results in prescriptions for harmful antipsychotics. Effective treatments are lacking because of limited knowledge of the etiology of nighttime agitation.

📍 St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton · Hamilton, Ontario · Get directions →
Most individuals with asthma can effectively manage their symptoms and maintain normal lung function using inhaled medications, unfortunately, there is a subset of asthma sufferers whose symptoms, lung function, and risk of asthma attacks remain unimproved despite conventional inhaled medications. There could be several reasons for this.

The objectives of this study are to determine the sensory-mechanical responses to Eucapneic Voluntary Hyperventilation (EVH) and Mannitol in individuals with cough variant asthma (CVA) and methacholine-induced cough with normal airway sensitivity (COUGH) and compare these responses to a control group of healthy individuals without asthma or chronic cough. We hypothesize: 1.

Insomnia is a highly common, chronic disorder that is distressful for the patient but also for caregivers and can give rise to a heavy burden on the healthcare team. Sleeping aids like benzodiazepines and other sedatives (e.g., zolpidem, zopiclone) have been widely used to help treat insomnia.
