Filter by:This is a phase I/II clinical trial assessing the tolerability and efficacy of CM4620 in children and young adults with acute pancreatitis caused by asparaginase. The tolerability of CM4620 when given to patients receiving frontline chemotherapy will be determined. The effectiveness in reducing the severity of pancreatitis will be estimated. Primary Objectives To assess the safety of CM4620 administration in children and young adults with asparaginase associated pancreatitis (AAP). To profile dose-limiting toxicities and responses of the patients treated in the dose-finding phase. To estimate the efficacy of CM4620 to prevent pseudocyst or necrotizing pancreatitis in children with AAP. Secondary Objectives To determine the effect of CM4620 on the incidence of severe pancreatitis To determine the effect of CM4620 on the incidence of Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS).
Observational prospective study evaluating the developement of chronic pancreatitis based on imaging modalities as well as biochemical markers of inflammation, fibrosis and oxidative stress.
This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of infliximab in the treatment of acute pancreatitis in adults. A third of participants will receive one single dose of infliximab via infusion, another third will receive a higher dose of infliximab via infusion and the final third of participants will receive a placebo infusion.
The WIRES-T project (Web-based International Registry of Emergency General Surgery and Trauma) has been set up to allow to all the EGS (Emergency General Surgery) and Trauma surgeons to register their activity and to obtain a worldwide register of traumatic and non traumatic surgical emergencies. This will give the opportunity to evaluate results on a macro-data basis and to give index allowing stratifying, evaluating and improving the outcomes.
To investigate the role of Heat Shock Proteins in the mechanism of acute severe pancreatitis. In addition to test the potential treatment target of acute pancreatitis. All patients who present with clinical symptoms of acute pancreatitis are evaluated for the enrollment of the study.
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory condition of the pancreas following the activated pancreatic enzymes induced by varied causes, with or without other organ(s) dysfunction. The production and release of inflammatory factors is generally considered as the key factor of pathogenesis. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the most commonly applied agents for inflammatory diseases. A series studies have proved that indomethacin can reduce the risk of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), but high-quality evidence is still lacking in the field of effectiveness of NSAIDs to treat, rather than prevent, other types of AP. Majority of animal experiments showed that NSAIDs had protective effects for organ functions, but the results of several preliminary clinical studies were inconsistent. Randomized controlled trials are eagerly awaited to elucidate its effects on AP.
Severe acute pancreatitis is an acute and rapid progress of the digestive system disease.Most patients with severe pancreatitis associated with intestinal mucosal barrier dysfunction.Intestinal microflora,an important part of the intestinal mucosal barrier, play an important role in the development process in the course of severe acute pancreatitis. At this stage of the study that infection of pancreas and other organs is the leading cause of death in patients with severe acute pancreatitis,and the main pathogens from intestinal micro-organisms, but the intestinal flora changes did not be mentioned. Fecal Microbiota Transplantation that has been used for treatment of inflammatory bowel disease and Clostridium difficile infection may be a new technology for regulation of intestinal mucosal dysfunction and intestinal flora unbalance.
Acute pancreatitis is a common urgency with a mortality rate of up to 30% , decreased blood flow in the pancreatic microcirculation. It seems to be the main cause of the pathophysiology of acute pancreatitis. Today, there have been many attempts in the management of pancreatitis but no established management seems to be ideal. The epidural block is an anesthetic technique used to provide highly peri and post-operative analgesia, also plays an important role in improving the gastrointestinal vascular perfusion (due to sympathetic blockade that this technique produces) so this anesthetic technique is proposed as an alternative to both clinical treatment as an analgesic for acute pancreatitis.
This is an epidemiological, observational, prospective, multicentric study in 400 adult patients admitted to hospital for mild acute pancreatitis to to assess the prognostic value of the antithrombin III in the development of moderate or severe acute pancreatitis.
Infectious complications are responsible for most of deaths in acute pancreatitis.Intestinal barrier dysfunction and increased intestinal permeability was associated with bacterial translocation which is believed to prompted these infections.The purpose of this clinical trail is to observe the potential capability of FMT in reduce the bacterial translocation and alleviate infectious complications by the reconstruction of a gut functional state.
