Filter by:This is a Phase 2, open-label, extension study to assess the safety and tolerability of AK002, given monthly for up to 26 doses.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of BMS-986165 compared to placebo in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease.
Radiation enteritis is one of the most feared complications after abdominal or pelvic radiation therapy.The gut microbiota is considered to constitute a "microbial organ" which has pivotal roles in the intestinal diseases and body metabolism. Evidence from animal studies demonstrated the link between intestinal bacteria and radiation enteritis. This clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of selective microbiota transplantation (SMT) and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for radiation enteritis.
This is a Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to assess the effects of AK002, given monthly for 4 doses. It is hypothesized that AK002 is more effective than placebo control (alternative hypothesis) in reducing the number of eosinophils per high power field (HPF) in gastric and/or duodenal biopsies before and after receiving AK002 or placebo versus no difference between AK002 and placebo control (null hypothesis).
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy of Benralizumab (Anti-IL5RA) in Subjects With Eosinophilic Gastritis.
The study validates prospectively a new endoscopic scoring system (Gothenburg Intestinal Transplant Endoscopy Score, GITES) designed to summarize and stratify the abnormal ileal endoscopic findings after intestinal transplantation. GITES is a five-tier, four grade score which asseses mucosal friability, mucosal erythema and mucosal injury (ulcerations) as well as villous changes according to severity. These features (i.e., endoscopic descriptors) are also grouped from mild to very severe in the same sequence as observed during the progression of several pathologic conditions encountered after intestinal transplantation (acute rejection, infectious enteritis).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of an elemental diet on adult patients with Eosinophilic Gastroenteritis
Celiac disease (CD) is characterized as an autoimmune disorder whereby gluten (a protein found in wheat, barley, rye, malt) induces an immunological response in genetically susceptible individuals. The prevalence of CD has been estimated to affect 0.5-1% of the population worldwide. Long term sequelae are numerous and include risk of lymphoma, malabsorption leading to weight loss, anemia, multiple vitamin deficiencies, osteoporosis/osteopenia, secondary autoimmunity, etc. (1)
The purpose of this study is to investigate features of patients with Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders (EGIDs) other than Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) alone, including Eosinophilic Gastritis (EG), Eosinophilic Gastroenteritis (EGE), and Eosinophilic Colitis (EC).
Children with complicated severe acute malnutrition (SAM), such as inability to take adequate feeds, infection and diarrhoea, require in-patient management. Despite following a well-established World Health Organisation (WHO) protocol, outcomes are poor. Case fatality often exceeds 20%. Amongst survivors discharged home, many subsequently die, have long-term poor growth or recurrence of SAM. It has long been recognized that children with SAM have intestinal inflammation and that this persists despite management according to WHO guidelines. The inflammation is thought to result from increased exposure to microbial pathogens in the gut in areas with poor sanitation. The damaged lining of the intestine impairs food digestion and absorption, likely allows gut bacteria to enter the blood stream to cause sepsis and also exposes the gut immune cells to microbial and food antigens causing the inflammation to persist. Failure to treat the intestinal inflammation is likely to contribute to the poor response to treatment and poor long-term outcomes in many children with SAM. The intestinal inflammation seen in SAM is very similar to that which occurs in food intolerance (e.g. intolerance to cow's milk protein) and inflammatory bowel disease. In these conditions, the inflammation is treated very effectively with hypoallergenic ("elemental") and anti-inflammatory ("polymeric") formulas. These are nutritionally complete feeds that have a similar composition to the feeds used for nutritional rehabilitation in SAM. We aim to undertake a pilot study to see if an elemental and/or polymeric formula are tolerated by children with SAM and help to reduce intestinal inflammation. We also aim to learn more about the intestinal inflammation in general that occurs in SAM by observing carefully the effect of these specific formulae and to do in-depth metabolic analyses.
