Filter by:The purpose of this study is to learn more about how octreotide (Sandostatin LAR® Depot) affects levels of ghrelin, hunger, and body weight in people with Prader-Willi Syndrome.
The main purpose of this study is the effect of the probiotic yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3856 on abdominal pain or intestinal discomfort in patients presenting with the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
This is a double-blind randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of the sympathetic block via thoracic vertebra T3 for the treatment of CRPS I upper limb. Patients with CRPS I refractory to medical treatment will be subjected to four physical therapy sessions and then the randomized for experimental or control block and then more four physiotherapy sessions. Patients will be evaluated after one month of the blockade (primary outcome) and then up to 12 months. Will be evaluated by analgesic scale (Mcgill, brief pain inventory, dn4 questionnaire, NPSI, VAS), functional (ADM) and quality of life (HAD and WHOQOL-brief).
The primary purpose of the study is to identify the factors of steroid dependency in childhood idiopathic nephrotic syndrome. The steroid dependency is defined by a relapse of nephrotic syndrome within the 3 weeks that follow the withdrawal of steroid therapy after the first manifestation. Different clinical and biological factors will be analyzed: age of first manifestation, delay of remission, ethnicity, and preceding viral infection, geolocalization in the Parisian area, genoprevalence of herpes viruses and polymorphisms in the genes involved in the response to steroid therapy.
Hand-foot syndrome (HFS) is a dose-limiting toxicity of capecitabine for which no effective preventative treatment has been definitively demonstrated. This trial is conducted on the basis of preliminary data that a 3% allopurinol-based topical agent may prevent HFS. A randomized, double-blind phase III trial will evaluate 40 patients receiving their first ever cycle of capecitabine at a dose of either 2,000 or 2,500 mg/m2 per day for 14 days. Patients will be randomly assigned to a 3% allopurinol versus a placebo cream, which will be applied to the hands and feet twice per day for 6 months after the start of capecitabine. Patients will be examined every month and the investigators will take some photographs of hands and feet. HFS toxicity grade (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE]v3.0) will be also collected at baseline and at the end of each cycle. The primary end point is the incidence of moderate/severe HFS symptoms at the end of capecitabine treatment , based on the patient-reported dermatological exploration.
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety of a 2.0 mg/kg/week and a 4.0 mg/kg/week of BMN 110 in patients with Morquio A syndrome for up to 196 weeks. Secondary objectives were to investigate the effect of the two doses on exercise capacity for up to 196 weeks. In addition, the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of both doses of BMN 110 was assessed.
This study examines Raloxifene versus Clomiphene to induce ovulation in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).
This study will assess how well the drug verapamil can improve control of seizures and dysautonomia symptoms in children and young adults diagnosed with Dravet syndrome. The safety of verapamil when given with all concomitant medications will also be assessed.
INSIGHT is a longitudinal study of childhood nephrotic syndrome to determine genetic, serologic and environmental factors contributing to nephrotic syndrome and disease progression.
MELAS patients suffer from exercise intolerance, weakness, poor vision or blindness, poor growth, developmental delay, and deafness. They also have unique 'stroke-like' episodes (SLEs) which are not due to blockages of large or medium arteries. These 'strokes' are thought to be due to energy failure of very small brain blood vessels combined with energy failure in the mitochondria (cell battery) of the brain cells, especially in the back region of the brain in the vision centre. This leads to visual loss and paralysis. The overall goal of this study is to better understand the mechanism of these SLEs at the level of the brain cells and small blood vessels.
