Filter by:This study is a phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, seamless adaptive design clinical study, aiming to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of three doses of ASC42 matched placebo in subjects with primary biliary cholangitis.
The whole study includes 2 parts. Both the SAD study and MAD study are randomized, double-blinded, and placebo-controlled studies, conducted in healthy subjects, to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics profiles of CS0159. The SAD part also involves a pilot food effect (FE) study, designed to assess the food effect on single-dose PK profile in healthy subjects.
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic autoimmune condition of the liver. Persons with PBC have high rates of liver disease-related symptoms and poor health-related quality of life - amongst the lowest of all chronic liver diseases. Patients and the Canadian PBC Society have identified the need for self-care tools to manage symptom burden. Building upon a previously developed online wellness program for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the researchers have developed a mind-body wellness module specific for patients with PBC. The 12 week module will be delivered online, and each week is made of an introduction video, 15-20 minutes of yoga, 10-15 minutes of meditation, behavior change tips, and nutrition tips. In a pre-post single arm feasibility study, the researchers will assess how acceptable this module is to patients through looking at rates of refusal, completion rates, and patient feedback. At the beginning and the end of the 12-week research study, participants will complete surveys to assess exploratory outcome measures including stress, anxiety, depression, resilience, quality of life, fatigue, and perceived ability to participate in the 12 week module. After the program, the research team will conduct interviews with participants to allow them to share their other feedback about the program. The researchers will also send surveys to the participants one month after the program ends to asses their continued satisfaction with and adherence to the program.
Retrospective study to analyze benign complications and malignancy risks after ERCP with sphincterotomy. All patients who received a ERCP with sphincterotomy for a benign disease will be included. Post-ERCP hepato-biliary complications in the follow-up will be registered.
We do ERCP procedure (Endoscopic procedure with the help of x-rays) for a variety of reasons such as bile duct stones, bile duct obstruction secondary to bile duct narrowing (Strictures) and for bile leak. The incidence of infection post ERCP is around one in 200. There are some group of patients where this risk is significantly increased. In this high risk group, the risk increases from 1 in 75 to in some diseases 1 in 15 (Described in PIS). There are some reports that some of the infection may be contributed by contamination of bacteria in the scope. This happens even after diligently sterilizing the scope. A multi-centre study reported that the risk of contamination is as high as 39% but what we do not know is how many resulted in bacterial infection. We do not know what percentage of infection is secondary to the above. The new single use duodenoscope has been introduced in to the market to minimise the risk of post ERCP infection. It is CE marked and a single centre study reported that the above performance of the above scope was comparable to the standard reusable scope. We want to assess the scope simultaneously in multiple different hospitals. In addition, we also want to assess the cost consequence to the NHS for using the above scope. Hence we want to assess the performance of the scope in the high risk groups for infection.
To evaluate the treatment effect of seladelpar on composite biochemical improvement in cholestasis markers based on ALP and total bilirubin and to evaluate the safety of seladelpar over 12 months of treatment compared to placebo
The purpose of this open-label study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of HDT1801 (BUDCA) over 12 weeks in adult subjects with PBC who have an inadequate response to standard therapy. Inadequate response is defined as persistently elevated serum alkaline phosphatase at greater than or equal to1.5 times the upper limits of normal for the testing lab in spite of having been on adequate doses of standard therapy with UDCA (ursodeoxycholic acid) at 13-15 mg/kg for at least 6 months.
A Phase 2a, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, dose-ranging, placebo-controlled, study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK of PLN-74809 in participants with primary sclerosing cholangitis and suspected liver fibrosis
In this study, investigators aim to explore the status of advanced endoscopy in different endoscopy units all over the world.
