About this study

Official title: Open-labeled Trial to Evaluate the Therapeutic Effects of Inhaled BUDESONIDE/FORMOTEROL in Bronchiolitis Obliterans After Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation

The purpose of this study is to determine whether inhaled Budesonide/formoterol is effective in the treatment of bronchiolitis obliterans after allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Read the detailed description

Bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is a life-threatening pulmonary late-onset complication following allogenic stem cell transplantation (SCT), commonly attributed to graft versus host disease (GVHD), and carries a poor prognosis. Although immunosuppressive treatments (IS) represents the main therapeutic approach in this disorder, these medications are rarely efficient and alternative approaches are strongly needed. Because, the combination of inhaled steroids and long-acting bronchodilator are known to decrease respiratory symptoms, prevent exacerbations and improve lung function in chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases with bronchiolar component, they may have beneficial effects in BO. Thus, the investigators conducted a pilot open-labeled trial to evaluate the therapeutic effects of inhaled Budesonide/Formoterol combination (400/12 µg twice a day) without modifying systemic IS received by the patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Budesonide/formoterol in people with Bronchiolitis Obliterans and Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

pulmonary function tests (time frame: 1 month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Sep 2012.
