Filter by:This is a first in human (FIH), single-centre, double -blind, randomised, cross-over, SAD followed by a MAD study of IZD334 conducted in healthy adult participants as well as an open-label cohort in adult patients with CAPS. The study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and food effect of IZD334 in healthy adult participants, and to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and preliminary clinical efficacy of IZD334 in adult patients with CAPS.
For therapy of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in premature babies, there are several established options. An important therapeutic aspect is the tracheal administration of exogenous surfactant into the child's lung. In the recent years, several methods have been developed. The methods differ in the selected ventilation mode (intubation with mechanical ventilation vs. Continous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP)-supported spontaneous breathing) and in the way in which the application of surfactant is technically conducted (via endotracheal tube, endotracheal catheter or nebulization). In selection of ventilation technique, there is an upcoming trend towards less invasive respiratory support via CPAP. While this may increase the rate of complications on the one side (i.e. pneumothorax), it shows much lower oxygen demand and a shorter need for mechanical ventilation on the other side. In the selection of the administration technique, different methods were repeatedly developed to adapt the surfactant administration to the CPAP therapy. In this study, a newly developed and in the European Community now certified (CE-Mark) application aid (Neofact) will be tested for the first time on preterm infants, to verify the feasibility.
The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of kinesio tape (KT) on pain severity, pain threshold, lower extremity functional muscle strength and dynamic balance, functional status, and quality of life in patients with Medial Plica Syndrome (MPS).
This phase II trial studies the side effects of a cord blood transplant using dilanubicel and to see how well it works in treating patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive hematologic (blood) cancers. After a cord blood transplant, the immune cells, including white blood cells, can take a while to recover, putting the patient at increased risk of infection. Dilanubicel consists of blood stem cells that help to produce mature blood cells, including immune cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and thiotepa, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Total body irradiation is a type of whole-body radiation. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a cord blood transplant with dilanubicel may help to kill any cancer cells that are in the body and make room in the patient's bone marrow for new stem cells to grow and reduce the risk of infection.
This multicenter double-blinded placebo-controlled randomised trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of vitamin D supplementation prior to IVF on the live birth rate in women with PCOS. Women with PCOS scheduled for IVF will be enrolled. Eligible participants will be randomised 1:1 to receive oral capsules of 4000IU vitamin D per day or placebo for around 12 weeks until the day of triggering.
Obesity, characterized by an increase in body weight that results in excessive fat accumulation, is a global health problem. Recently, it has also been shown that obesity is associated with low-grade chronic systemic inflammation in adipose tissue. This condition is mediated by activation of the innate immune system in adipose tissue that promotes inflammation and oxidative stress and triggers a systemic acute-phase response. Previous research points towards the potential of phytochemicals in food as part of nutritional strategies for the prevention of obesity and associated inflammation, as well as, increase in insulin sensitivity in diabetic patients. In addition, there is strong evidence that obesity is inversely associated with vitamin D levels. The major cause of vitamin D deficiency in humans is the lack of adequate sun exposure. Unfortunately, very few foods, i.e. mushrooms, naturally contain vitamin D and foods that are fortified with vitamin D are inadequate to satisfy vitamin D requirements. The last decade, mushrooms have attracted the research interest as functional foods with desirable health benefits in several metabolic disorders without the side effects of pharmacological treatment. Edible mushrooms are highly nutritious and exhibit beneficial effects on several inflammatory diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes,, high blood pressure. Thus, the purpose of this study is to determine the effects of nutritious mushrooms in adults with Metabolic Syndrome. More specifically, 100 participants will be allocated to two groups, namely intervention group (N=50) and control group (N=50). Vitamin D2-enhanced mushrooms by UV-B will be provided as a snack to the intervention group, whereas the control group will not consume the snack. The intervention will last 3 months.The effects of the intervention will be evaluated via clinical and laboratory markers. Personal and family history, anthropometric, demographic data, body composition, dietary habits, physical activity and smoking status will be assessed pre- and post- intervention. Biochemical profile, oxidative stress and inflammation, as well as metabolomic profiles will be assessed in blood samples pre- and post- intervention. Both groups will receive standard nutritional counselling throughout the intervention and will be encouraged to report any adverse effects they may experience during the intervention.
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe form of respiratory failure with a mortality rate of approximately 40%. Despite advances in its supportive treatment such as lung protective ventilation or restrictive fluid management, no effective pharmacotherapy exists to treat ARDS. Emerging preclinical data indicates that excessive activation of the inflammasome-Caspase 1 pathway plays a key role in the development of ARDS. Tetracycline has anti-inflammatory properties via inhibiting inflammasome-caspase-1 activation. Since not much is known about the activation of the inflammasome in clinical ARDS, the purpose of this study is i) to investigate the the inflammasome-caspase-1 activation in clinical ARDS and ii) inhibit the innate immune response of alveolar leucocytes obtained by tetracycline from patients with ARDS
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability and to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and/or the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of ASP7517. This study will also evaluate the clinical response of ASP7517 as well as other measures of anticancer activity of ASP7517.
To access the effectiveness of Acetogenins in treating Post-Lyme Disease Syndrome (PLDS).
The purpose of this study is to initially observe the safety and effectivity of RC18 in Participants with Primary Sjögren's Syndrome.
