    Genetic Variation in IgG in Alpha 1 Antitrypsin Deficiency

    Testing how a genetic change in alpha-1 antitrypsin affects immune and lung responses to a pneumonia

    📍 University of Alabama at Birmingham · Birmingham, AL · Get directions →

    The goal of this study is to learn whether patients who have a genetic mutation in the genes that cause alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency also have genetic variation in nearby genes that can increase risk for reduced immune function and respiratory infections. To investigate this hypothesis, we will compare immune responses to the 20-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV20, Pfizer) between participants who have one abnormal copy of the SERPINA1 gene and either no COPD exacerbations, vs those with 2 or more COPD exacerbations in the past year.

  • COPD (chronic lung disease)Asthma

    The Effects of Positive Airway Pressure on the Mucolytic Effects of NAC (TEAM)

    Testing whether positive airway pressure helps a lung medicine (NAC) reach mucus plugs in asthma or

    📍 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.

    A Study to Learn About the Safety of Taking an Additional Dose of the Medicine Rimegepant in Adults With Migraine

    Testing how safe it is to take an extra dose of rimegepant for migraine

    📍 Hope Clinical Research · Canoga Park, CA · +6 more US sites · Get directions →

    Acute treatments for migraine may not provide sufficient pain relief after an initial dose, and a second dose of a given medication may be needed to fully abort an attack. International Headache Society (IHS) global practice recommendations for the Acute Treatment of Migraine suggest a second dose of the same medication within the recommended dose limit in people with headache relapse after successful initial treatment of a migraine attack.

    Does Nerve Block + Oral Dexamethasone Reduce Recurrence of Headache Within 72 Hrs?

    Testing whether a nerve block plus steroid tablets lowers migraine headache return within 72 hours

    📍 University Medical Center of El Paso · El Paso, TX · Get directions →

    For some patients who come to the emergency department for treatment of a migraine headache, peripheral headache nerve blocks (PHNB) have proven to be an efficient and effective treatment for headache relief. Previous studies have demonstrated that adding steroids as an adjunct treatment to standard migraine treatment can reduce recurrence of headaches in the subsequent few days.
