Vifor International Inc. is seeking real-world evidence (RWE) to better understand the epidemiology, patient characteristics, and management of CKD-aP in the real-world clinical setting.
This single-blinded (only patients blinded) study is to assess the effect of cooling beddings on itch. The primary objective is to test whether or not the use of the cooling beddings during 3 days can add at least 20% improvement in (nocturnal) itch as measured by the 0-10 NRS in comparison to a control group that does not use the cooling beddings.
Main objective: To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of single and multiple oral administration of narfurine hydrochloride orally disintegrating tablets in Chinese healthy adult subjects. Secondary objective: To evaluate the safety profile of single and multiple oral administration of narfurine hydrochloride orally disintegrating tablets in Chinese healthy adult subjects.
Investigators will study the effects of topical doxycycline on cutaneous allergic early and late phase responses by determining allergen skin responses in each subject after a single application to allergen induced allergic swelling of 2% doxycycline in emollient.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Botox is effective in the treatment of an experimentally induced itch that mimics chronic itch in healthy volunteers.
The following is the investigators hypothesis regarding the pruritus of BP patients during remission. Anti-BP 180 IgE binds to dermal mast cells, inducing their activation and secretion of mediators after being cross-linked by antigens. Among mediators, histamine directly induces itching and vessel changes, whereas tryptase potentiates itching and vessel changes in an indirect way through the actions of neuropeptides. Tryptase stimulates neurons which in turn secrete neuropeptides.
The purpose of this observational study is to better understand the natural history/natural course of uremic pruritus (UP) - itching associated with chronic kidney disease(CKD). During the lifetime of a CKD dialysis patient, UP tends to be a prolonged, frequent, and an intense itch that is known to impair the patient's quality of life (QoL), including sleep and mood. The study will follow hemodialysis (HD) patients longitudinally to characterize their pruritus over time. The study will quantify and characterize UP and assess change over time; collect data on conditions that may be affected by UP such as sleep, mood, socialization and overall quality of life; collect data on use of medications, particularly anti-pruritic treatments, sleep aids, and medications for depression and anxiety; and collect data on medical resource use, particularly hospitalizations for treatment of skin and other infections over the duration of the study.
