Evaluation of the non-inferiority of TulleGras M.S.® versus Urgotul® in pain associated with removal of wound dressing during care of venous leg ulcer
The research group will choose no more than 10 patients having a lower extremity venous ulcer(s), less than 5cm diameter and with an estimated one month time of re-epithelization. In this study the investigators will follow and monitor the healing of the wound and effectiveness of compression therapy using bioimpedance measurement based method. The investigators will also treat the wounds using periodical low intensity direct current (LIDC) stimulation therapy. Bioimpedance monitoring and wound stimulation functionalities are provided by a purpose built wound patch. The patch features a printed 4 x 4 stimulation and impedance measurement electrodes array (in contact with wound surface) surrounded by a 4-part dual purpose counter and impedance reference electrodes (in contact with the intact skin surrounding the wound area).
This Phase III, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study will investigate the efficacy and safety of etrolizumab during induction and maintenance of remission compared with placebo in the treatment of participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) who have been previously exposed to TNF inhibitors.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of long-term administration of lansoprazole (Takepron) therapy for up to 12 months in the routine clinical setting in patients receiving oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of long-term administration of lansoprazole (Takepron) for up to 12 months in the routine clinical setting in patients receiving low-dose aspirin
In the present study, ulcerative colitis (UC) patients in the remission stage of the disease will be randomized into two groups: Alberta anti-inflammatory diet and Canada's Food Guide diet. The elements of Alberta anti-inflammatory diet have previously been shown to have a role in decreasing the risk of UC development or management of UC-related symptoms or relapse. Since the primary outcome of interest is the relapse rate in two groups, disease status will be assessed monthly using appropriate tools. In order to find out the underlying mechanisms that will relate the proposed diet to decreased flare rate, some laboratory evaluations, which are mainly markers of inflammation or are related to gut microbiome will be conducted. In the present study, the investigators will also perform state-of-the art metabolomics tests, in order to study how the dietary changes will change the end metabolites. In addition, the investigators will be able to explore if metabolomic profile of participants can predict future UC relapse. This study will last for 6 months from baseline wherein all the study subjects will receive appropriate dietary instructions in addition to their stable doses of maintenance drug therapy.
Based on the efficacy of inulin and oligofructose in treating experimental colitis and emerging evidence suggesting probiotics are efficacious in maintaining and inducing remission in human ulcerative colitis (UC), the investigators intend to conduct an open label study using Synergy-1, a 1:1 oligosaccharide/ inulin mixture, in patients with mild to moderately active left-sided UC. The investigators hypothesize that oligofructose-enriched inulin (Synergy-1) can be used safely in the treatment of mild to moderate UC, and daily oral administration of Synergy-1 will result in the clinical improvement and/ or remission of disease. Subjects will be randomized to either a 7.5g or 15g dose of Synergy-1 in order to investigate what amount of the prebiotic is efficacious and tolerable in patients with active UC. The clinical activity of disease will be evaluated using endoscopy and symptom scores. The investigators will also study the effect Synergy-1 on mucosal histology, intestinal microbiota composition and function and markers of inflammation (e.g. fecal calprotectin, cytokines). The study will be for 9 weeks from baseline wherein all subjects will receive Synergy-1 treatment. Half the subjects will receive a dose of 7.5g and half will receive 15g daily.
