Filter by:This phase IIa trial investigates if giving obeticholic acid (OCA) is safe and has a beneficial effect on the number of polyps in the small bowel and colon in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). FAP is a rare gene defect that increases the risk of developing cancer of the intestines and colon. OCA is a drug similar to a bile acid the body makes. It is fluid made and released by the liver. OCA binds to a receptor in the intestine that is believed to have a positive effect on preventing cancer development. OCA has been effective in treating primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), a liver disease, and is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use at a lower dose (10 mg). There have been studies showing that OCA decreases inflammation and fibrosis. However, it is not yet known whether OCA works on reducing the number of polyps in patients with FAP.
Colectomy is life-saving in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) because cancer development is inevitable in individuals with this disease. In this study, we aimed to determine the incidence of incidental malignancy in surgical specimens from patients who underwent colectomy for FAP. Prophylactic colectomy should be performed in patients with FAP, as colorectal cancer transformation is inevitable in these individuals. The possibility of incidental cancer identified via histopathological analysis of colectomy specimens should be kept in mind in these patients.
This is a trial that intends to evaluate the effect of treatment with the drug obeticholic acid in the treatment of the Familial Adenomatous Polyposis condition.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of JNJ-64251330 in participants with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) on colorectal polyp burden (sum of the polyp diameters).
The purpose of this post-trial access (PTA) program is to provide guselkumab to participants with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) who are experiencing clinical benefit after completing 48 weeks of treatment in Study CNTO1959COR1001.
This project seeks to identify DNA-adducts in colon tissue from different groups of patients with CRC scheduled for complete or partial colon resections. Other patients scheduled for resection of the colon serve as controls. In addition, surrogate samples such as white blood cells are investigated for the presense of adducts while blood plasma and urine are investigated for the presense of DNA-repair products.
In this prospective, non-randomized cohort study, real-time intraoperative visualization using near-infrared-fluorescence by indocyanine green injection (ICG-NIRF) is performed at two to three time points during procedures of upper GI, lower GI and hepatobiliary surgery with anastomosis formation in open or laparoscopic surgery. Postoperatively, a detailed software-based assessment of each recording is performed to determine the objective ICG-NIRF perfusion rate before and after anastomosis formation, which is then correlated with the 30 day postoperative clinical outcome including occurrence of anastomotic leak.
In this prospective, non-randomized cohort study, real-time intraoperative visualization using near-infrared-fluorescence by indocyanine green injection (ICG-NIRF) is performed at three time points during ileal pouch reconstruction. Postoperatively, a detailed software-based assessment of each pouch recording is performed to determine the objective ICG-NIRF perfusion rate, which is then correlated with the 30 day postoperative clinical outcome including occurrence of anastomotic leak of the pouch.
In this prospective, non-randomized cohort study, real-time intraoperative visualization using near-infrared-fluorescence by indocyanine green injection (ICG-NIRF) is performed at three time points during ileal pouch reconstruction. The intraoperative imaging findings are then analysed and correlated with the 30 day postoperative clinical outcome including occurrence of anastomotic leak of the pouch.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of a personalised surveillance and intervention protocol for patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) that have undergone (procto)colectomy.
