Some evidences have shown that probiotics are effective in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome. Because few evidences are available in our population, we investigated if probiotics are effective in our patients as well. We hypothesize that the probiotic Lactol which contains Lactobacillus Sporogenes reduces the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome.
Evidence have shown benefits of gut flora modulation in treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), but few reports are available on the effects of multistrain probiotics and there are few reports available in this regard from our society. Thus, we investigated if probiotics are effective in our patients as well. We hypothesize that the multistrain probiotic Balance containing seven bacteria species including Lactobacillus strains, Bifidobacterium strains, and Streptococcus thermophiles reduces the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome.
Compartment syndrome (CS) is a condition resulting from increased pressure within a compartment, which compromises circulation and can lead to critical limb ischemia. CS is one of the biggest medical challenges that our soldiers face after battlefield related injuries. Chronic or exercise-induced compartment syndrome (CS)rarely requires treatment; acute compartment syndrome is a medical emergency requiring surgery. Treatment of compartment syndrome is limited to fasciotomy, which relieves the pressure.The study purpose is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of the administration of marrow-derived autologous bone marrow concentrate and PRP gel generated by a point of care marrow separation system for the treatment of compartment syndrome. And to show this treatment possibly enhances wound healing, bone healing, perfusion, infection control, and the return of limb function in patients with CS. Stem Cell and regenerative medicine development efforts for therapeutic angiogenesis and wound healing have predominantly focused on the mechanism of action of a single stem cell population to achieve neovascularization and improve tissue perfusion. It is well documented that other cells, including platelets, are efficient carriers of growth factors (VEGF-PDGF, bFGF, and SDF-1) and play active roles in angiogenesis and wound healing. Arteriocyte's development efforts focus on concentration of autologous bone marrow-derived stem cells and platelets for delivery to the site of injury in a concentration sufficient to effect local tissue revascularization and repair. These products provide for the rapid, bedside preparation of autologous PRP and bone marrow stem cell concentrate. This clinical trial with the Magellan® System is for the preparation of autologous cell concentrate for the treatment of wound, tissue and bone healing, improved perfusion, infection control, and the return of limb function in patients at risk of amputation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of treatment of radial shockwave in myofascial pain syndrome in the lumbar region compared to placebo through questionnaires and imaging exams.
The purpose of the study is to determine the maximal tolerated dose and schedule of CC-486, known as oral azacitidine, in patients with AML or MDS after allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplant (HSCT). HSCT is more frequently used in AML or MDS as a potential curative therapy. However, disease recurrence/relapse and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) remain the principal causes of fatal complications after transplantation. Oral azacitidine has significant activity in MDS and AML. Oral azacitidine has also demonstrated immunomodulatory activity in AML patients after allogeneic HSCT. An oral formulation of oral azacitidine provides a convenient route of administration and an opportunity to deliver the drug over a prolonged schedule.
Compassionate use of Stiripentol in Dravet Syndrome. This is a treatment protocol, not a research study, therefore children will only be monitored on a clinical basis for seizure improvement predominantly by parent and caregiver report.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and immune response to DEC-205/NY-ESO-1 fusion protein CDX-1401 and decitabine in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia. DEC-205-NY-ESO-1 fusion protein, called CDX-1401, is a full length NY-ESO-1 protein sequence fused to a monoclonal antibody against DEC-205, a surface marker present on many immune stimulatory cells. This drug is given with another substance called PolyICLC, which acts to provoke any immune stimulatory cells which encounter the NY-ESO-1-DEC-205 fusion protein to produce an immune response signal against NY-ESO-1. Immune cells which have thus been primed to react against NY-ESO-1 may then attack myelodysplastic or leukemic cells which express NY-ESO-1 after exposure to the drug decitabine. The chemotherapy drug decitabine is thought to act in several different ways, first, it may directly kill cancer cells, and secondly, the drug can cause cancer cells to re-express genes that are turned off by the cancer, including the gene for NY-ESO-1. Giving DEC-205/NY-ESO-1 fusion protein (CDX-1401) and polyICLC together with decitabine may allow the immune system to more effectively recognize cancer cells and kill them.
The purpose of this research study is to learn about the effects of treating subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) with thyroid hormone replacement in children and adolescents with Down syndrome (DS). We hypothesize that treatment of SCH with thyroid hormone replacement will improve cardiometabolic health and quality of life.
This clinical trial studies idarubicin, cytarabine, and pravastatin sodium in treating patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as idarubicin and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Pravastatin sodium may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving idarubicin and cytarabine together with pravastatin sodium may kill more cancer cells.
