Filter by:The present project aims to study the inflammatory and endothelial responses involved in the differences in clinical events related to both genotypes (ENG vs. ACVRL1) in HHT. Accordingly, a cross-sectional study is proposed to evaluate the differences in circulating inflammatory and endothelial biomarkers, including interleukines, adhesion molecules, chemokines and immune regulatory molecules between both HHT groups.
A Randomized, Open-label, Crossover Study to Evaluate the Comparative Bioavailability, Pharmacokinetics, and Safety of GTX-102 Administered as an Oral Spray Compared to Intramuscular Injection - betamethasone and an Oral Solution of Betamethasone in Healthy Subjects. Four groups of subjects will receive 2 treatments each and randomized in 2-way crossover.
This is a retrospective observational study of natural-history of ataxia-telangiectasia. Understanding the natural history and its variability is not only vital to planning effective patient-centred services, and counselling patients and their families, but will also inform the design of future clinical research, particularly clinical trials.
This is a Phase 2a study of the effect of serine supplementation and fenofibrate treatment on serum deoxysphingolipid levels in patients with macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel). This study involves six arms. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the following treatment groups: serine 200 mg/kg/day, serine 400 mg/kg/day, fenofibrate 160 mg/day, both serine 200 mg/kg/day and fenofibrate 160 mg/day, both serine 400 mg/kg/day and fenofibrate 160 mg/day, or no treatment (control group). Serum deoxysphingolipid levels will be used as the primary outcome, and safety will be evaluated. The participants will be followed for 10 weeks, with visits at Screening, Week 0, 3, 6 and 10.
This study aims to develop a novel ultra-low dose chest CT technology for use in Hereditary Hemorrhagic Teleangiectasia (HHT) patients and to determine the lowest possible radiation dose that is achievable without sacrificing the diagnostic quality.
The study investigates the effect of dietary supplementation of nicotinamide ribonucleoside (NR) in children with ataxia telangiectasia (AT), with main focus on neurological symptoms.
This study will investigate the effectiveness of oral low-dose tacrolimus for the treatment of recurrent nasal hemorrhage in HHT subjects. The primary outcome for the trials will be the reduction of epistaxis severity (minutes of bleeding per week). The biological outcomes of interest are the regression of vascular malformations as well as tissue and circulation biomarkers of the relevant mechanistic pathways. In this Phase II open label trial, we estimate a sample size of 30 subjects with HHT, with moderate-severe recurrent epistaxis will be required. Subject will be treated with a 6-month course of tacrolimus twice daily.
The goal of this study is to better understand HHT, the symptoms and complications it causes ("outcomes") and how the disease impacts people's lives. The investigators are aiming to recruit and gather information together in the Registry from 1,000 HHT patients from four HHT Centres of Excellence in North America. The Investigators will collect long-term information about the people in the Registry, allowing the investigators to understand how the disease changes over time, and what factors can influence those changes. Ultimately, this should help improve treatments for the disease.
HHT is a relative rare autosomal dominant inherited disorder of the fibrovascular tissue. Diagnosis of HHT is often delayed for decades (Pierucci 2012). However, it would be desirable to achieve an early diagnosis as early screening and treatment decrease disease-associated complications and increase life expectancy (Kroon 2018). Our approach is a nationwide call and awareness campaign to dentists in Germany, as nearly all persons visit a dentist from time to time. This approach is promising to us, as most patients develop nosebleeds and multiple, typical telangiectases of the skin or mucosa. A predilection site is the oral mucosa and the face, including the lips (Shovlin 2000).
This study will investigate the effectiveness of oral doxycycline for the treatment of recurrent nasal hemorrhage in Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) subjects. The primary outcome for the trials will be the reduction of epistaxis severity (minutes of bleeding per week). The biological outcomes of interest are the regression of vascular malformations as well as tissue and circulation biomarkers of the relevant mechanistic pathways. A Phase II, randomized double-blind placebo-controlled crossover trial. Approximately 30 subjects with HHT, with moderate-severe recurrent epistaxis will participate in the randomized double-blind placebo-controlled cross over trial. Subject will be treated with a 6-month course of doxycycline 100mg twice daily or placebo twice daily.
