Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a type of air pollution made up of extremely tiny particles that can harm our health. Because PM2.5 particles are so small, they can travel deep into the lungs when inhaled. Exposure to PM2.5 can worsen asthma, cause breathing problems, increase the risk of heart attacks, and lead to early death, especially for people with existing heart or lung conditions. In California's Bayview Hunters Point (BVHP), a San Francisco community already facing high levels of air pollution and health impacts, sources of PM2.5 include industrial activity, commuter traffic, heavy-duty diesel trucks, freight trains, and port and maritime activities. The Reducing Exposure with Air Cleaners and Technology (REACT) Study is a partnership between University of California (UC) Berkeley, UC San Francisco, and Brightline Defense. The goal is to see if air cleaners (also called air purifiers) can help reduce indoor PM2.5 levels and improve respiratory health. For this study, the investigators will be recruiting 100 households in BVHP to participate. In each home, indoor PM2.5 levels and the health status of household members who are 13 years old or older and have asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) will be monitored. Each home will be part of the study for 90 to 120 days, depending on scheduling. Households must reside in BVHP for the duration of the study and not have used an air cleaner in their home within the last 6 months. On Day 1, each household will receive a PurpleAir indoor air quality monitor to measure PM2.5 levels in their home. * For the first 30 days, the investigators will measure the home's normal air quality (baseline). * After 30 days, each household will receive an air cleaner with information about how to best use it. * At that point, a PM2.5 indicator light will be turned on for half of the PurpleAir monitors. For the other half, indicator light will be kept turned off. This helps the investigators study whether seeing the air quality in real time changes how people use the air cleaner. * For the next 30 days, indoor PM2.5 levels will continue to be monitored. How often the air cleaner is used will also be tracked with smart plug data loggers. * After 60 days, more training and support will be offered to all participants and monitoring will continue over the final 30 days of the study.

Depressive disorders are highly prevalent among older adults with asthma and are associated with poor asthma outcomes. The overall objective of this study is to integrate an asthma self-management support program that the research team previously developed with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for adherence and depression for older adults with uncontrolled asthma and a comorbid depressive disorder. The research team will conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial to assess the feasibility and preliminary impact of the intervention on asthma and depression outcomes.

A Randomized, Dosing vs Standard of Care, Single-Center, Multiple Dose Study to Evaluate the Effects of Oral Glyceryl Guiacolate (Guaifenesin, GGE) on Sputum Rheology in Subjects With Mucus Hypersecretion

The purpose of this clinical study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called tilrekimig) for the potential treatment of severe asthma. Asthma is a condition that makes it challenging to breathe, which negatively impacts the quality of life of people who are affected. The study is seeking participants who: * Have a history of severe asthma for at least 12 months * Have had at least 2 asthma attacks (also known as exacerbations) within the last 12 months All participants will be given shots of study medicine or a placebo at the study clinic. Tilrekimig or the placebo will be given about every 4 weeks during the study. The study will compare the experiences of people receiving tilrekimig to those people who receive the placebo. This will help determine if tilrekimig is safe and effective.

Primary Objective: The primary endpoint is a clinically significant improvement in tolerance to inhaled methacholine (PD20). Secondary Objectives: 1) To determine if oral daily ginger extract intake - decreases fractional excretion of nitric oxide; decreases blood eosinophilia; decreases asthma-associated cytokines in serum; decreases medium chain fatty acids; improves asthma symptoms; and 2) Establish pharmacokinetic parameters of biologically active components of ginger in adult asthmatics.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate a prototype wearable stethoscope designed to record lung sounds and assess asthma control in children and adolescents with asthma aged 4 to 17 years who are able to perform spirometry. The study aims to determine whether the prototype wearable stethoscope can accurately detect clinically meaningful changes in lung sounds associated with asthma control and response to bronchodilator treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the prototype wearable stethoscope demonstrate agreement with recordings obtained from commercially available Thinklabs One Digital Stethoscopes in identifying normal and abnormal lung sounds? * Are lung sounds detected by the prototype wearable stethoscope associated with asthma symptom control as measured by the Childhood Asthma Control Test (cACT) or Asthma Control Test (ACT) Researchers will compare recordings obtained from the prototype wearable stethoscope with recordings obtained from FDA-cleared Thinklabs One Digital Stethoscopes to evaluate the prototype device's ability to detect abnormal lung sounds and changes in lung sounds following bronchodilator treatment.

The study aims to demonstrate the superiority of GSK5784283 compared to placebo in reducing the annualized rate of clinically meaningful asthma exacerbations.

The main purpose of this study is to assess if different dose levels of Brenipatide are safe and work the way they are intended to work in participants with moderate-to-severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), when compared with placebo. The study will last approximately one year.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the efficacy of galvokimig versus placebo in the time to the first acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) in study participants with moderate-to-severe COPD with chronic bronchitis.

The purpose of this study is to compare how two different formulations of the study medicine (GSK5784283) move through the body over time (pharmacokinetic \[PK\] study) in healthy adults. The aim of the study is to see how the body processes GSK5784283 and determine if the study medicine is safe, how well it is tolerated by the body and if the study medicines being tested work in the body in the same way.

This study is aimed at assessing depemokimab as an add-on medicine for the treatment of asthma with type-2 inflammation in participants of 6 to 11 years of age. This study will test how the body processes depemokimab, how the drug works in the body, and its safety and tolerability.
