View clinical trials related to Altered Ethanol Metabolism.
Filter by:This trial will evaluate if fomepizole (4-methylpyrazole)can treat symptoms associated with alcohol intolerance due to aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) Deficiency, an inherited metabolic disorder. These symptoms include flushing, nausea, headache, shortness of breath and dizziness, resulting from exposure to acetaldehyde, the primary metabolite of ethanol. Long-term, serious health risks have been associated with repeated exposure to acetaldehyde, a carcinogen, among ALDH2-deficient individuals.
