Filter by:This is a three-part, Phase I, first-in-human study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and potential systemic exposure of multiple topical doses of TCP-25. Part I includes healthy volunteers with acute epidermal wounds formed by the suction blister technique. Part II includes patients with non-healing leg ulcers and Part III patients with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB).
Τherapeutic equivalence, randomized, multiple-dose, placebo-controlled, observer-blind, parallel group design consisting of a 2-week run-in period followed by a 4-week treatment period with Fluticasone propionate 100 mcg/ blister oral inhalation powder/Respirent Pharmaceuticals (Test) or FLOVENT DISKUS® 100mcg blister oral inhalation powder (Reference) or placebo.
The investigators are undertaking a clinical blister model with or without dietary supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids (i.e., Lovaza) to determine the role of specialized pro-resolving mediators - endogenous lipids converted from omega-3 fatty acid precursors including those in Lovaza - on inflammation parameters and their resolution.
The use of packaging interventions like pillboxes or blister packs has been shown to significantly improve medication adherence. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of home-delivered pill packs on medication adherence in a low-income population. This is an open-lab randomized controlled trial taking four or more medication doses daily, randomized either to the intervention group or the control group. Patients in the intervention group received prescriptions pre-packaged in individual packets that were delivered by the pharmacy. Patients in the control group continued to receive medications from pharmacies as they did prior to enrollment. The primary outcome was the percentage of missed pills in the intervention group versus the control group after four months of enrollment.
A Randomised, Single-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Crossover Study to Investigate the Effects of RIST4721, a Novel CXCR2 Inhibitor, on the Inflammatory Response in Healthy Male Subjects Using a Standardized Blister Model
This study investigates the differences of Eosinophil Cationic Protein, Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha and Anti-BP180-NC16A IgG levels of blister fluids in Bullous Pemphigoid patients which appeared before and under treatment subsequently. These molecules will also be measured in blood serum before and under treatment. Changes of titers in serum and differences between blister fluids will be compared to observe whether correlation exists between them. These measures will also be compared between groups of responders and non-responders to the first-line treatment options to analyze correlation with treatment success.
N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA), which are abundant in oily fish and fish oils, have been suggested to play a role in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) by modifying a wide range of risk factors, such as blood fats, blood clotting, blood vessel function and inflammation. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small particles released from various cells when they are activated or damaged. High numbers of EVs in the blood have been associated with a higher risk of CVDs, and it is thought that this is because they carry 'bioactive' components which can affect many processes involved in CVDs. However, very few clinical trials have investigated the relationships between the consumption of n-3 PUFA and circulating EVs. This study aims to investigate the effects of dietary n-3 PUFA on the generation and functional activities of EVs, which would provide new insight into the benefits of n-3 PUFA on cardiovascular health.
Platelet activation and aggregation leads to myocardial infarction. Platelet P2Y12 receptors are essential for platelet activation. Antagonists against the P2Y12 receptor, which are established in secondary prevention of myocardial infarction, have unexplained anti-inflammatory effects. A novel P2Y12 receptor antagonist ticagrelor reduced infection-related mortality compared to clopidogrel, previous standard treatment for patients with myocardial infarction. Activated platelets release pro-inflammatory and procoagulant platelet extracellular vesicles. The investigators assume that decrease in infection-related mortality in patients treated with ticagrelor may be explained by greater inhibition of the release of platelet vesicles by ticagrelor, compared to clopidogrel. This study is expected to identify an additional mechanism of action of ticagrelor, which might contribute to the observed clinical benefits in patients treated with ticagrelor.
