Filter by:Nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel has greater efficacy and favorable safety profile than standard paclitaxel. However, rate of neuropathy caused by nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel is higher than standard paclitaxel, and is one of its dose-limited toxicities. Previously, compression therapy by surgical gloves has shown effectiveness in preventing chemotherapy-induced neuropathy. We designed this multi-center prospective self-control phase III study to investigate the efficacy of compression gloves to reduce albumin-binding paclitaxel induced sensory and motor neurotoxicity of upper extremities.
In this study, we compared the results of the intelligence and behavioral test performed after surgery between the group using sevoflurane and the group receiving dexmedetomidine and remifentanil, in Korean children under 2 years of age who underwent surgery under general anesthesia.
This phase II trial studies how well anakinra works in decreasing the occurrence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and damage to the nerves (neurotoxicity) in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma who are receiving CD-19 targeted chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy. CAR-T cell therapy may be complicated by two potentially life-threatening side effects: CRS and neurotoxicity. Anakinra is a drug typically used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, but may also help in preventing CAR-T cell-related cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity.
for the last 20 years, the increasing reports from non-human studies have raised suspicion that general anesthetics may cause neurotoxic changes in the developing brain that lead to adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes later in life.there are several case reports of reversible smell and taste dysfunction following exposure to general anesthesia suggesting a possible relationship between anesthetic agents and olfactory dysfunction. this study is to assess the possible neurotoxicity of sevoflurane,isoflurane,and propofol based anesthesia guided by olfactory changes
In this prospective monocenter observational study, the objective was to determine a safe and effective therapeutic window for cefepime in patients with neutropenic fever.
Taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) caused by paclitaxel is a dose-limiting toxicity. The main symptoms of discomfort are numbness, tingling, and burning sensations in the glove-sock-like distribution of the limbs. At present, there are few effective methods for clinical treatment of TIPN, and there is no widely agreed consensus on effective treatment in the world. Therefore, it is of great clinical significance and practical value to carry out clinical research to explore drugs to relieve TIPN.
The study report a unique case of severe intoxication in a child treated with oral ivermectin to prevent scabies infection. The ABCB1 gene sequencing found the child compound heterozygote for two nonsense mutations, one in each gene copy. The child had inherited from each parent one of the alleles. Each mutation generate a predicted truncated protein that likely lead to ABCB1 loss of function, and the undesirable effects observed. The study report a unique case of severe intoxication in a child treated with oral ivermectin to prevent scabies infection. The ABCB1 gene sequencing found the child compound heterozygote for two nonsense mutations, one in each gene copy. The child had inherited from each parent one of the alleles. Each mutation generate a predicted truncated protein that likely lead to ABCB1 loss of function, and the undesirable effects observed. While in some animals, nonsense ABCB1 mutations can lead to neurotoxicity of several ABCB1-substrate drugs, in humans, ivermectin was considered to have an especially high margin of safety, and nonsense mutations have never been reported before, nor has the neurotoxicity of ivermectin apparently caused by these two mutations never been reported before. This discovery is of critical importance for the child, since it dictates that clinicians would need to optimize any ABCB1 substrate-based therapy in the future. More generally, such information must be brought to the attention of clinicians' medics, and in particular infectious disease specialists, pediatricians, and general practitioners. It points the importance of pharmacovigilance, and the benefit of pharmacogenomic genotyping in well-defined phenotype, still too rarely considered in clinical practice before the implementation of a drug treatment. This work results from a multidisciplinary approach, combining several areas of expertise in clinical pediatrics, pharmacology, biology, and bioinformatics.
A prospective controlled single centre study designed to determine the association between the exposure to anesthetic agents and the pre and postoperative changes in plasma Neurofilament Light levels, biomarkers of neurological injury, in patients with similar surgical intervention but different anesthetic techniques. Secondary endpoints: Association between the changes in plasma Neurofilament Light levels and the development of post-operative neurocognitive disorders as acute delirium.
This research study is studying the combination of anakinra and axicabtagene ciloleucel to reduce the occurrence of the side effects Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) and neurologic toxicities with relapsed or refractory Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). - Relapsed NHL is the condition of returned Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. - Refractory NHL is the condition of previous treatment resistant Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. - Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) is a group of side effect symptoms that can include nausea, headache, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, kidney damage, and rash. - Neurologic toxicity is nervous system disorder characterized by confusion This research study involves two drugs: - Anakinra - Axicabtagene Ciloleucel.
This is a prospective, open-label, single-arm study evaluating the safety and efficacy of defibrotide for the prevention of CAR-T-associated neurotoxicity in subjects with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) receiving Yescarta.
