Filter by:The investigators are studying a dietary supplement called anatabine in a lozenge form named RCP006. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of this dietary supplement on normal human inflammatory function. The investigators will see this effect in volunteers who have markers of higher levels of inflammation to begin with. The investigators anticipate that anatabine will reduce markers of inflammation. Therefore the investigators are looking for volunteers with high blood levels of C-reactive Protein (CRP) and will monitor the blood CRP levels at several time points throughout the study.
This study will test the efficacy and safety of IBI-10090 in the treatment of ocular inflammation after ocular surgery.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that combined vildagliptin-metformin therapy is associated with clinically significant reductions in biological markers of inflammation, pro-thrombogenicity, and atherosclerosis as compared to metformin mono-therapy in a population of diabetic patients with coronary artery disease who undergo cardiac rehabilitation. The pre-specified established biological markers of inflammation, pro-thrombogenicity, and atherosclerosis will include: interleukin-6 (IL-6 - primary biological marker), hs-CRP, platelet reactivity testing, MMP-9, Interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta) and adiponectin levels.
This is a Unicentric, double-blind, randomized, two-arm, parallel-group study to demonstrate the efficacy of moxifloxacin/prednisolone acetate fixed combination compared with individual administration of moxifloxacin + acetate Prednisolone Eye drops in Prevention of Post Operative Inflammation and Infection in LASIK surgery.
To compare the safety and efficacy of cyclosporine (CsA) + mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) + corticosteroids © to CsA + Rapamune + Cs with CsA elimination in the Rapamune arm with the introduction of MMF in de novo renal allograft recipients.
Cardiovascular disease(CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developed nations. CVD is primarily caused by atherosclerosis, a systemic disease characterized by lipid deposition in the subendothelial space with a concomitant, low-grade inflammatory reaction.(Fuster, Moreno et al. 2005) To date, most therapeutic interventions aimed at lowering CVD have thus far focused on modulating lipid levels, either lowering LDLc or increasing HDLc levels. Yet, since the introduction of statins 20 years ago, there have been few breakthroughs in the treatment of this disease. A promising strategy to reduce CVD is to directly target inflammation at the level of the vessel wall.(van Leuven, van Wijk et al.; Libby 2002) A potential drawback of anti-inflammatory strategies pertains to the thin line between inhibiting 'inappropriate' inflammation versus inducing immuno-suppression. Therefore, continuous low dosed anti-inflammatory drugs have great potential as novel treatment strategies. In the present project, the investigators propose to inject liposomal glucocorticoids intravenously in patients with an increased risk of atherosclerotic disease aiming to reduce vessel wall inflammation.
The goal of the study is to find out whether a high fat meal increases blood lipids and causes monocyte (white blood cell) activation, and whether blueberry intake at the same meal lessens monocyte activation in healthy people.
This study investigates the response of vaginal and cervical tissue after exposure to three vaginal products: hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) placebo, nonoxynol-9 (N9) and imiquimod (IMQ) cream.
The objective of this clinical study is to compare the safety and efficacy of mapracorat ophthalmic suspension, 3% with its vehicle for the treatment of postoperative inflammation and pain following cataract surgery. Participants from the United States and Canada will be recruited for this study.
