Filter by:This pilot study will be a randomized parallel trial comparing Mindfulness-Based Irritable Bowel Syndrome Eating Awareness Training done over an 8 week period to a standard low Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides and Polyols diet.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Lovastatin, Minocycline and the combination Lovastatin/Minocycline are effective in treating behavioral symptoms in Fragile X individuals.
This study evaluates the addition of collagen scaffold loaded with autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells(ABMNC) to Foley catheter balloon after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis in the treatment of severe asherman syndrome. Half of participants will receive collagen/ABMNC scaffold after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis, while the other half will receive Foley catheter balloon.
The purpose of this study is to compare acute tear production produced by the Oculeve Intranasal Lacrimal Neurostimulator with two control devices in participants with aqueous tear deficiency.
The list of medications that prolong the QT interval and can provoke torsade de pointes keeps expanding. This list includes not only antiarrhythmic drugs, but also medications with no cardiac indications. All these medications prolong the QT interval because they block a specific potassium channel on the myocardial cell membrane: the channel for the rapid component of the delayed rectifier potassium current or "IKr". The risk for developing torsade de pointes for patients taking any of the medications with IKr blockade capabilities varies from >4% for antiarrhythmic drugs to <0.01% for non-cardiac medications. The risk depends on the strength of IKr blockade, but also on specific patient characteristics. The majority of patients who develop torsade de pointes from non-cardiac medications have identifiable risk factors. In this regard, patients with a congenital long QT syndrome are prone to develop torsade de pointes when treated with QT-prolonging medications. This is because, due to their genetically defective ion channels, patients with Long QT Syndrome (LQTS) have impaired ventricular repolarization and reduced "repolarization reserve." Therefore, it is common medical practice to strongly advise patients with congenital LQTS to avoid all medications that have IKr channel blocker capabilities. it was reported that some flavonoids contained in pink-grapefruit juice block the IKr channel. These investigators also reported that drinking 1 liter of pink-grapefruit juice causes QT prolongation in healthy volunteers. The magnitude of the QT prolongation provoked by grapefruit juice was small However, drugs causing minor QT prolongation in healthy volunteers may provoke major QT prolongation in rare or sick individuals who are then at risk for developing torsade de pointes. Consequently, one could argue that, until proven otherwise, pink-grapefruit should be added to the list of "drugs" that are forbidden for patients with LQTS
Phase 2, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety and efficacy of NBI-98854 administered once daily (qd) for a total of 6 weeks of treatment. This study will enroll approximately 90 male and female pediatric subjects clinically diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome.
Association between serum anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) level and prevalence of glucose intolerance and metabolic syndrome in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Cancer is the uncontrolled growth of human cells. The growth of normal human cells is controlled by multiple mechanisms. Panobinostat belongs to a class of chemotherapy drugs called "histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors." HDAC inhibitors like panobinostat block enzymes known as histone deacetylases, which stops cancer cells from dividing and causes them to die. Fludarabine and cytarabine are chemotherapy drugs that are commonly used to treat pediatric patients with refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The purpose of this study is to test the safety of panobinostat and to find the highest dose of panobinostat that can be given safely when it is combined with fludarabine and cytarabine. This pilot study will be done in two parts: The goal of Part 1 of the study is to find the highest tolerable dose of panobinostat that can be given to patients with AML or MDS, when it is combined with fludarabine and cytarabine. Once that dose is determined, participants will be enrolled on Part 2: Dose Expansion, to look at the effect of the panobinostat/fludarabine/cytarabine combination in patients with leukemia/MDS. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: - Determine a tolerable dose of panobinostat when given in combination with fludarabine and cytarabine in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory AML or MDS. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: - Characterize the pharmacokinetics of panobinostat after the first dose and at steady-state. - Estimate the overall response rate to the combination of panobinostat, fludarabine, and cytarabine.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of SD-809 in the treatment of motor and phonic tics of Tourette Syndrome and to evaluate the pharmacokinetic of SD-809 and its metabolites.
Objective: In this pilot study, we will test the hypothesis that patients with POTS (age 18-60 years) will have a higher percentage of functional antibodies to adrenergic receptors compared with control subjects without POTS.
