Filter by:Patient with liver cirrhosis commonly have co-existing small bowel bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) yet may be asymptomatic. It is unclear as to the value of treating SIBO in asymptomatic individuals. Cirrhosis increase permeability of the gastrointestinal mucosa. It is postulated that in cirrhosis, endotoxins translocate across the gut mucosal barrier resulting in a second hit within hepatocyte perpetuating decompensation and spontaneous bacterial peritonitis. We hypothesise that cirrhosis patients with concomitant SIBO are particularly vulnerable for endotoxin translocation and would benefit from treatment. Treatment of SIBO would reduce the risk of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis and other liver-related morbidities. We aim to treat a cohort of patients with severe liver disease and concomitant SIBO with antibiotics as prophylaxis and compare the risk of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, further liver-related morbidity and survival against untreated asymptomatic controls.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity of TAS-117 in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors (excluding primary brain tumors) harboring germline PTEN inactivating mutations.
This is a retrospectively-controlled clinical trial that will examine the rate of positive UTI cases among pediatrics entered into the Emergency Department and whose urine is withdrawn using the PedSCath Pediatric Sampling Catheter. The rate of postive UTI will be compared against the control population, whose urine withdrawal would have been performed with Standard of Care devices.
This research study tests a new medicine for mobilizing stem cells so they can be collected and used for allogeneic stem cell transplant for treatment of hematological malignancies. MGTA-145, the new medicine, will be given with plerixafor.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of RPTR-168 as a monotherapy in patients with HPV-16 E6/E7 positive tumors (HNSCC, cervical) and melanoma.
This is an open-label, dose-escalating, 48-week study assessing the safety, tolerability, bioactivity and duration of action of a single intravitreal injection of 0.1 mg, 0.25 mg, or 0.5 mg AXT107 in approximately 18 subjects (up to 6 subjects per dose) with nAMD.
This randomized study evaluates the effect of subcutaneous semaglutide /in combination with lifestyle counseling in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), overweight/obesity, and stage 4-5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) or dialysis-dependent end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) on patients' eligibility for kidney transplantation at the end of 9 months.
This study will look at how effective the study drug (tepotinib) is at stopping the growth and spread of lung cancer with central nervous system metastasis. In some patients, who have developed resistance to their tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), this study will look at how effective tepotinib is in combination with TKIs. This study will also measure a number of other things including safety of the study drug and the side effects, how body processes the study drug, or how the study drug affects your quality of life.
This multicenter Phase I/II trial consists of two stages: a phase I stage in patients with castration resistant prostate cancer in which the recommended phase II dose will be determined for ipatasertib administered in combination with darolutamide; and a phase II neoadjuvant stage in which patients with high risk prostate cancer and loss of PI3K pathway activation in the tumor tissue planning on undergoing prostatectomy receive ADT, darolutamide, and ipatasertib for 24 weeks prior to planned surgery.
The objective of this study is to demonstrate that inspiratory muscle training with daily use of an incentive spirometer for at least 14 days prior to lung surgery will reduce the risk of post-operative pulmonary complications.
