Filter by:This is an exploratory non-therapeutic study to study the microbiome patterns during pregnancy in women with ICP in order to identify specific bacterial strains for further product development.
Many studies have attempted to find the predictors of adverse neonatal outcome in women with Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy(ICP).Serum total bile acid level exceeding 40 µmol/L has been associated with increased risk of meconium staining, low Apgar scores, preterm delivery, and stillbirth.Other predictors such as level of transaminases, history of cholelithiasis, and hepatitis virus infection have been studied but the results are inconclusive.A more comprehensive investigation involving multiple neonatal outcomes and a wide variety of outcome predictors is needed in order to establish guidelines for optimal timing of delivery in pregnancies complicated by ICP. The aim of our study was to evaluate wide variety of predictors of adverse neonatal outcomes in a large cohort of women with ICP .
There is limited knowledge about the extent of the impact of maternal metabolic diseases (MD) and/or alterations in maternal serum lipid content upon neonatal lipid distribution and phenotypes. This observational feasibility study aims to investigate the effect of maternal MD on fat distribution, lipid content and metabolic phenotype of different neonatal tissues. We will explore whether differences in tissue fat distribution and lipid content are observed in the neonates of women with MD during pregnancy, compared to those who have a healthy, uncomplicated pregnancy and if there are changes in how the different tissues work (e.g. cardiac function). If there is evidence to show that there are alterations during pregnancy in children of women with MD, this will help inform potential interventions to ensure optimal child health.
This study is designed to assess whether the investigational drug maralixibat, is safe and well tolerated in children <12 months of age with Alagille Syndrome [ALGS] or Progressive Familial Intrahepatic Cholestasis [PFIC].
This is a two-part randomized study of volixibat in patients with Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy (ICP) and elevated serum bile acid concentrations (sBA). Part 1 is an open-label study to evaluate safety and tolerability of two doses of volixibat. Part 2 is a double-blind, placebo controlled, study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a selected volixibat dose.
The purpose of the study is to improve the prognosis of inhereditary cholestasis caused by ABCB11 gene mutations by using BSEP function rescue drugs
To provide treatment access to patients with PFIC in the US who have pruritus and elevated serum bile acids and who are not able to enroll in A4250-008 (PEDFIC2) for the following reasons: 1) Do not meet eligibility criteria for PEDFIC 2; 2) Are not able to get to a PEDFIC 2 site for geographical reasons, and 3) Do meet the eligibility criteria for PEDFIC 2 after recruitment has been completed
To assess the occurrence of 11 SNP's in ABCB11 and ABCB4 genes in Greek women with ICP compared with healthy pregnant women. Moreover, these genetic polymorphisms will be examined in their first-degree relatives.
The primary objective of this open label extension study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of maralixibat.
Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is a group of disorders that can present early in life with cholestasis and intractable pruritus. Their treatment poses a great challenge, with medical treatment is not successful in many cases. Moreover, the available non-transplant surgeries carry many side effects and different degrees of efficacy. Partial external biliary diversion, internal biliary diversion, and ileal exclusion still lack widespread experience with many side effects. Nasobiliary stent placement has little tolerability, especially in younger age. Gastrobiliary tube is a novel modality for external biliary diversion in such patients.
