Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of a new gel formulation of Esmolol hydrochloride (Galnobax®) for the treatment of Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU). The study will compare number and types of adverse events occured, rates of wound closure and percentage of wounds closed in Galnobax treated groups versus placebo group.
- Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are one of the chronic consequences of diabetes which constitute the most important cause of non-traumatic amputation of the inferior limbs. Patients with diabetes are 22 times more likely to have foot ulceration or gangrene than nondiabetics,while foot ulceration precedes 85% of lower-extremity amputation. - Three factors combine to promote tissue necrosis in diabetic feet: ischemia, neuropathy and trauma. Among them, ischemia peripheral arterial disease may play the important roles in the development of DFU. Moreover, diffuse vascular disease is the main characteristics, and thus it becomes difficult for treatment by using arterial bypass or balloon angioplasty. Therefore, we hypothesized that continuous arterial thrombolysis may be an effective therapy in diabetic foot. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of continuous intra-femoral artery injection of urokinase by micro-artery-pump in diabetic ulcers.
Pressure ulcers are frequently associated with malnutrition. Previous studies have reported that nutritional support can improve the healing rate of pressure ulcers but no attention has been clearly given to the nutritional status of the patient treated. Moreover, other investigators have suggested the additional healing power of some nutrients. Unfortunately, previous results have been unpowered by small sample size, poor monitoring of compliance to treatments and the confounding effect of other nutrients. The investigators aimed to test the effect and additional benefits of several micronutrients delivered through oral nutritional support on the healing rate of pressure ulcers in malnourished patients.
Confirmation of safety profile of Pentasa slow release tablets 500 mg in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC).
Open-label, 8 week study, to assess the efficacy and safety of oral Budesonide-MMX 9 mg Extended-release Tablets in patients with mild to moderate, active ulcerative colitis who are not in remission based on the Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Index in study CB-01-02/01 (parent study [NCT00679432]).
This is an open-label, active-control, multicentre, parallel group, randomised and dose-finding efficacy and safety study. Compare the efficacy and safety of BioChaperone PDGF-BB applied at 12.5 µg/cm² every two days for up to 20 weeks to becaplermin gel (Regranex® Gel 0.01%) applied daily for up to 20 weeks for the treatment of neuropathic diabetic foot ulcer. Assess the effect of a double dose of BioChaperone PDGF-BB (25 µg/cm²) applied every two days for up to 20 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a treatment of a novel leukapheresis column is safe and effective in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of this study is to look at the importance of L-Arginine in the digestive tract. L-Arginine is an amino acid and is important in making proteins within the cell. The evaluation of colon tissue, blood, urine, diet, health history, and symptoms will help us learn more about L-Arginine and ulcerative colitis. The investigators believe these studies will provide new insights into the treatment for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (ulcerative colitis) and nutritional needs. The investigators plan to enroll 200 participants in this study over the next two years.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Cimzia (certolizumab pegol) is an effective treatment for patients with Ulcerative colitis.
This research aims to address the gap in the studies done and test the effects of a commercial mixture of 7 g of Arginine, 7 g Glutamine and 1.2 g HMB* twice a day on hard to heal pressure ulcers in an Asian patient cohort in an acute healthcare setting.
