Filter by:The primary objectives of the study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of A4250 after single or multiple oral doses in healthy subjects. In addition, will evaluate A4250 in combination with cholestyramine.
Retrospective study of all patients diagnosed with primary biliary cholangitis during January 2001 to July 2016 at West China Hospital by review of medical records. The following variables will be retrospectively studied: age, sex, first symptoms, clinical characteristics, pathology, treatment, stage, complications of cirrhosis, other autoimmune diseases and long-term outcome.
This study will be the first to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics following single dose of 10 milligrams (mg) to 180 mg of GSK2330672 in Japanese healthy subjects. This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-escalating and incomplete block crossover study to be conducted in 16 Japanese healthy subjects. Study will be conducted in four periods; subjects will receive either placebo or GSK2330672 (10 mg, 30 mg, 90 mg or 180 mg based on randomization) in each treatment period. Each period will be separated by washout period (at least 6 days from dosing). Total duration of study for each subject will be approximately 5 weeks from the first dosing to follow up visit.
Parenteral nutrition (PN) provides intravenous nutritional supplementation for infants unable to absorb adequate enteral nutrients secondary to insufficient intestinal length or function. In early PN-associated cholestasis, the dose of traditional soy based lipid is limited to 1 g/kg/day which often limits the growth capacity of parenteral nutrition-dependent infants. Inadequate growth is directly related to poor neurological outcomes, failure to facilitate mechanical ventilation, and less growth of the neonate's already damaged intestine. Ultimately, these outcomes can lead to severe disability and death. To mitigate these deleterious effects and optimize growth, parenteral nutrition-dependent infants with cholestasis who are not adequately growing on 1 g/kg/day of soy-based lipid emulsion must have a greater intake of lipids to meet their needs for weight, length, and head circumference growth. SMOFlipid contains a mixture of 4 different lipid sources: soybean oil which provides essential fatty acids, olive oil which is high in monounsaturated fatty acids that are less susceptible to lipid peroxidation than polyunsaturated fatty acids, medium-chain triglycerides which show a faster metabolic clearance than long-chain triglycerides, and fish oil which provides the supply of omega-3 fatty acids. The utility of Omegaven and soy-based lipid emulsion is limited as these are restricted to 1 g/kg/day in cholestatic infants. SMOFlipid is safe to be provided at the usual goal infusion amount of 3 g/kg/day. Because this product includes both omega-6 and omega-3 lipids, it provides the benefits of the omega-3s for the liver and provides more than enough omega-6s to meet essential fatty acid requirements. Its use in situations in which growth is inadequate in babies who must be restricted to 1 g/kg/day can be expected to improve their growth and likely markedly increase their chances of both a good neurological outcome and survival. The aim of this research study is to determine if the unique formulation of SMOFLipid will cause less hepatic inflammation compared to soy only intralipids.
The aim of our study is to compare the incidence of PNAC in newborns receiving cyclic versus continuous parenteral nutrition (PN) in those newborns who need prolonged PN. The secondary aims are to compare incidence of sepsis and catheter related sepsis, mean length of hospital stay, mortality, nutritional status at two years of chronological age and predisposing factors to the development of parenteral nutrition associated cholestasis (PNAC) between the two groups, and to evaluate the adverse effects of the method of cycling used. This was a single-center, prospective randomized not blinded study was conducted in a level 3 neonatal intensive care unit from July 2010 to January 2015. Infants with hemodynamic instability until a stable situation, congenital hepatic disease, preterm infants with diagnosis of respiratory distress syndrome or persistent ductus arteriosus and lack of authorization from the parents or guardians were excluded.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of a multicomponent lipid emulsion containing 30% soybean oil, 30% medium-chain triglycerides, 25% olive oil, and 15% fish oil with a conventional pure soybean oil lipid emulsion on the incidence of neonatal cholestasis, infant growth, infant morbidity and the biochemical assessment of liver enzymes.
This study will evaluate A4250 (IBATinhibitor) as a treatment option in pediatric patients with chronic cholestasis with main emphasis on safety evaluation and on effects on pruritus
To provide a mechanism for critically ill infants with parenteral nutrition (PN) associated cholestasis to receive Omegaven for compassionate use situations for which there are no satisfactory alternative treatments.
This is a single-assignment study to evaluate whether Omegaven (IV fish oil) is effective at treating liver disease in children on long-term IV nutrition.
Parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis (PNAC) and liver disease (PNALD) are associated with significant morbidity and mortality in neonates and is felt to be exacerbated by soybean-based lipid emulsions. Much research is currently being directed at identifying ways to reduce this risk. Reduction of the dose of soybean-based lipid given as a component of parenteral nutrition is one possible strategy. In this study we will compare standard dosing of soybean-based lipid (up to 3/kg/day) with a minimized dose (1 g/kg/day) and evaluate for the development of cholestasis and adequate growth between the two groups. Longterm followup will include an assessment of neurodevelopmental outcomes at 12 and 24 months of age. Funding source - FDA OOPD
