Participate in Respiratory Clinical Research

Making Tomorrow’s Treatments Possible Today

Understanding Respiratory Conditions and Research

  • Led by Dr. Frank Hull a physician board-certified in both Pulmonary and Critical care medicine

 

The Burden of Pulmonary Diseases:

Asthma

Affects over 300 million people worldwide

Studies focusing on:

New biologics for severe asthma

Novel inhaler combinations

Long-acting treatments for better symptom control

Reducing exacerbation frequency

COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)

  • Impacts 1 in 7 adults over 40
  • Current research exploring:
    • Novel new anti-inflammatory approaches
    • Treatments to reduce flare-ups
    • Solutions to reduce symptoms
    • Studying if control of COPD causes less heart attacks.

Chronic Neuropathic Cough (Coughing for more that 1 year)

  • Affects up to 10% of adults
  • Studies investigating:
    • Novel nerve-targeting medications
    • Quality of life improvements
  • Part of our comprehensive respiratory research program

Bronchiectasis

  • Chronic condition of infection and inflamation that permanently damages the lung airways
  • Research focused on:
    • Preventing exacerbations and need for rescue antibiotics
    • Managing daily symptoms
    • Stopping further damage to the airways

Why Research Participation Matters

Clinical Trial Outcomes

Research shows that study participants often experience better health outcomes:

  • 20% better monitoring of their condition
  • Earlier detection of health changes
  • More frequent medical assessments
  • Better understanding of their condition
  • Improved outcomes even in placebo groups due to enhanced care
  • Access to new treatments before they become widely available

Phase III & IV Studies

  • We also conduct later-phase studies using medications that have:
    • Already FDA approved for other uses and already on the market
    • Established safety profiles
    • Proven effectiveness in earlier trials
