Background: The importance of ischemic ECG changes including St segment elevation, ST segment depression or T wave inversion that indicate myocardial ischemia are well established and require appropriate investigation and treatment. However, there is an abundance of clinical situation, with apparently ischemic ECG change not indicate traditionally coronary artery related ischemia and therefore require prompt recognition and treatment of underlying condition, that may be serious and life-threatened. For example of such conditions are pericarditis, myocarditis, aortic dissection, electrolyte abnormalities, intracranial hemorrhage and hypothermia. Together with them, an ECG ST segment changes may appeared in abdominal serious illness such as pancreatitis and cholecystitis(17,18,19,20,23). Whereas in pancreatitis various vasoactive and toxic for myocardium substances released, the cause of ST segment changes in cholecystitis are discussed and includes tachycardia , vagal reflexes, changed in plasma rennin activity resulted by distension of the gallbladder. The certain proportion of the patients with ECG changes actually didn't have coronary artery disease(9,15) or other acute cardiac condition and therefore require treatment of the underlie illness only without spend the time for cardiac investigation or special treatment(1,3,4,7,8). Some kind of treatment may be even harmful for the patients with abdominal illness such as thrombolytic, anticoagulant, aggressive antiaggregant therapy or unnecessary cardiac catheterization. In the medical literature the investigators found some case reports and works about the ECG changes in acute biliary disease in patient with knowing cardiac disease and without it, but actually incidence of ECG changes that suggest but not represent an acute coronary illness isn't knowing. Therefore this is necessary to investigate actually incidence of ECG changes that mimic acute coronary syndrome in acute cholecystitis and acute biliary disease and determined clinical and laboratory characteristics that helps to differentiate this patients.
FMF is the most common periodic fever with a worldwide patient population estimated as 150,000, mainly located in the Eastern Mediterranean basin. colchicine is the established therapy of choice ,however, around 20.000 patients worldwide fail to respond or cannot tolerate therapeutic doses, thereby suffering from recurrent debilitating, severe, painful attacks of peritonitis, pleuritis and synovitis and are at risk to die from reactive amyloidosis .Mutation-induced reduction in pyrin/ marenostrin activity is thought to underlie the disease by leading to NALP3 inflammasome activation ,and thereby to IL-1β related burst of inflammation. The IL-1 receptor antagonist Kineret (Anakinra), seems to be the most appropriate response to the uncontrolled IL-1β elevation. Indeed, an increasing number of reports over the last few years indicate a good response to Kineret (Anakinra), in colchicine-resistant FMF ,also in children ,however, no controlled study has thoroughly evaluated the efficacy and safety of this treatment. Study outline: The study aims to run at the FMF centre in Sheba Medical Center, covering more than 10,000 patients. The study will evaluate the effect of recombinant IL-1 receptor antagonist, Kineret (Anakinra), on the frequency of FMF attacks in patients that, despite maximum tolerable dose of colchicine, present with more than one attack per month. The study is designed as a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind study. 50 patients will be randomised to treatment with either Kineret (Anakinra), or placebo treatment for 4 months.
This study was initiated on the preliminary premise that a thrombus whose formation was triggered by a thrombogenic substrate, such as within an atherosclerotic plaque (Tissue factor initiated thrombus), may evolve differently than the one evolving at the site of a recently implanted stent (foreign body triggered). Consequently, the thrombus composition of a de novo clot could differ from the other one, extracted during the occurrence of a subacute thrombosis, regarding the number of various cells, the amount of fibrin and platelet aggregates and the relationship among these components. In addition, it seems relevant to evaluate the numbers and the distribution of the local monocytes, once these cells may interact with platelets (via cell -adhesion mechanisms e.g., by CD31 [PECAM-1]) and by the extrinsic coagulation pathway (via TF/FVII elaborated by plaque-resident macrophages). Such a distinction, if eventually found, may reveal the mechanisms of thrombosis within coronary arteries, and may have clinical implications.
This is a Phase I, multi-center, Dose-Escalating, Safety Study of an Intravenously Administered Pegylated Liposomal Mitomycin-C Lipid-based Prodrug (PL-MLP, PROMITIL) in Cancer Patients with Solid Tumors. The study comprised of: Escalated cohorts A-H: 27 male or female participants, ages 18-80, BMI 18-36 diagnosed with inoperable, recurrent or metastatic malignant solid tumors, deemed incurable, and who have failed to respond to standard therapy or for whom no standard therapy is available. Eligible subjects will be assigned, successively in order of accrual, to one of eight cohorts, to receive escalating doses of intravenously infused PROMITIL. PROMITIL will be administered as an intravenous infusion. Dose escalation will only proceed in the absence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). For this purpose, each cohort will only begin its first cycle of PROMITIL when the cohort preceding it has successfully completed its first 4-week cycle without any signs of DLT. Expanded cohort: 17 adult patients with metastatic CRC. The purpose of this expanded cohort is to further evaluate the safety of Promitil and to search for signs of antitumor activity of Promitil in this specific patient population. Combination Cohort (Promitil concomitantly with Capecitabine): 23 adult patients with metastatic CRC. Triple combination Cohort: 13 additional subjects with metastatic CRC, received combination of Promitil concomitantly with Bevacizumab (5 mg/kg) on day 1 of a 28 day cycle and Capecitabine on days 1-14 of a 28 day cycle. 3 weekly cohort- 9 subjects with metastatic CRC will receive Promitil and Bevacizumab (7.5 mg/kg) on day 1 of a 21 day cycle.
This is a randomized study of the European SIOP Neuroblastoma Group (SIOPEN) in high-risk neuroblastoma (stages 2, 3, 4 and 4s MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma, stage 4 MYCN non amplified > 12 months at diagnosis). The protocol consists of a rapid, dose intensive induction chemotherapy, peripheral blood stem cell harvest, attempted complete excision of the primary tumour, myeloablative therapy followed by peripheral blood stem cell rescue, radiotherapy to the site of the primary tumour and immunotherapy (R4 randomization - isotretinoin and ch14.18/CHO (Dinutuximab beta, Qarziba ®).), with or without s.c. aldesleukin (IL-2)). Patients diagnosed after the closure of R3 randomization will not be R4 randomized. For these patients the use of ch14.18/CHO antibody is recommended without scIL-2 as continuous infusion as standard of care outside of controlled trials. ch14.18/CHO received marketing authorization by EMA in May 2017 (Qarziba ®). In the induction phase, all patients receive Rapid COJEC following the result of the R3 randomization which was closed on June 8th, 2017 after inclusion of 630 patients as planned. Following induction treatment peripheral blood stem cell harvest (PBSCH) is performed and complete excision of the primary tumour will be attempted. Patients with an inadequate metastatic response to allow BuMel MAT followed by PBSCR at the end of induction should receive 2 TVD (Topotecan, Vincristine, Doxorubicin) cycles. After Rapid COJEC induction, localized patients will proceed to consolidation. Patients aged 12-18 months at diagnosis, with stage 4 neuroblastoma, no MYCN amplification and without segmental chromosomal alterations (SCAs) are thought to have a good prognosis and will stop treatment after induction therapy and surgery to the primary tumour. Consolidation consists of BuMel MAT based on the results of the R1 randomization followed by peripheral blood stem cell rescue (PBSCR) and radiotherapy to the site of the primary tumour. The R2 immunotherapy randomization using ch14.18/CHO as 8 hour infusion on 5 consecutive days ( total dose (100mg/m²) with or without aldesleukin (IL-2) alternated with isotretinoin (13-cis-RA) is closed. The amended R4 immunotherapy randomization using ch14.18/CHO as continuous infusion (total dose 100mg/m² over 10 days) with or without aldesleukin (IL-2) alternated with isotretinoin (13-cis-RA) has accrued according to plan with results pending awaiting data maturity and DMC approval.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of DD-25, a new topical drug, on plaque Psoriasis Vulgaris. The study will include subjects at plaque stage from 5-20% body area involvement. A total of 30 subjects will be treated with cream application on affected areas twice daily for three weeks.The efficacy of the preparation will be documented by PASI score, Global physician assessment and photos.
The main aim of this clinical trial is to find a way of giving ch14.18/CHO, in combination with subcutaneous aldesleukin (IL-2) and oral isotretinoin (13-cis-RA), to children and young people with primary refractory or relapsed neuroblastoma without intravenous morphine.
