NCT ID: NCT02849977 Completed - Clinical trials for Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 1 (PCSK1) and Leptin Receptor (LepR) Gene Mutations

Genetic Testing and Phenotypic Characterization of Severely Obese Pediatric and Adult Volunteers

Start date: September 28, 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this screening study is to identify people who have a rare genetic cause of obesity - specifically three genetic variants (a change in the DNA structure) of the POMC, PCSK1 and LepR genes that are currently known to result in obesity. This screening study will not include any investigational drugs. You will be asked to provide a DNA sample and answer some questions about your medical history and hunger.

NCT ID: NCT02847117 Completed - Clinical trials for Biological Availability

Bioavailability of the Microconstituents of Natural Chios Mastiha in Healthy Adults.

Start date: July 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Mastiha is a natural product from the tree Pistacia lentiscus var. Chia (Anacardiaceae) growing exclusively in the Southern part of Chios Island. It is the natural resinous exudate produced after longitudinal incisions made at close intervals from the base of the trunk up to the thicker branches of the tree. U.S. Food and Drug Administration has classified Mastiha as GRAS. Previous research demonstrates Mastiha's safety, as well as anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. In addition, the European Medicine Agency has recently recognized Mastiha as a natural medicine and classified it to the category of traditional herbal medicines in diarrhea problems, mild dyspeptic disorders, skin inflammation and healing (EMA/HMPC/46758/2015). However, the bioavailability of its microconstituents in human biological samples is still undetermined. To this end, the current study aims to investigate the whether Mastiha's compounds are bioavailable in healthy adults. Twenty apparently healthy men, aged 20-40 years old, will be enrolled based on certain inclusion and exclusion criteria. The staff of the study will provide detailed information regarding the aims, the methods, anticipated benefits and potential hazards of the study and all patients will receive the Patient Information Leaflet (PIL). Ample time (48 hours) will be provided in order to decide whether they want to participate in the protocol. Each patient agreeing to participate will sign an Informed Consent document and the staff will explain to patients that they are under no obligation to enter the trial and that they can withdraw at any time during the trial, without having to give a reason. A copy of the signed Informed Consent will be given to the participant. After enrollment, the volunteers will undergo a medical and dietary assessment and their health status will be evaluated through a complete blood count. Then, they will follow a low-phytochemical diet for five days, meaning that they will exclude fruits, vegetables, legumes, coffee, tea, alcoholic beverages and chocolate. On the day of the experiment and after overnight fasting, the volunteers will consume 10g of natural Mastiha and blood samples will be obtained on timepoints 0h, 30min, 1h, 2h, 4h, 6h and 24h after Mastiha intake. Until timepoint 6h, they will be allowed to consume only water. Urine samples will also be collected on timepoints 0h, 4h, 8h and 24h. After collection, the phenolic and terpenoid content or metabolites of Mastiha will be identified in plasma samples applying LC-HRMS. Additionally, the metabolomic profile will be assessed in plasma samples with LC-HRMS and in urine samples with NMR-based metabolomics. Oxidative stress will be evaluated through the CuSO4 technique and oxidised LDL levels in serum samples, as well as F-2 isoprostanes in urine samples.

NCT ID: NCT02838186 Completed - Colon Neoplasms Clinical Trials

Backwards Examination of the Right Colon: A Back-to-back Study

Start date: May 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to evaluate the examination of the proximal colon with the retroflexion colonoscopic technique in terms of feasibility and its possible additive contribution in the detection of important lesions, namely polyps and cancers.

NCT ID: NCT02837770 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Effect of Topical and Oral Diclofenac on Pain Related to Intravitreal Injections

Start date: July 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The analgestic efffect of Diclofenac Sodium 0.1% Eye Drops and a combination of Diclofenac Sodium 0.1% Eye Drops and oral Diclofenac Sodium sustained-release 75mg tablets on pain related to intravitreal injections will be evalutated. Pain perception will be assessed by the Short Form of the McGill Pain Questionnaire.

NCT ID: NCT02833844 Completed - Clinical trials for Subjects With Hyperlipidemia, Dyslipidemia and HIV Infection

Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy on Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) of Evolocumab in Participants With Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Hyperlipidemia/Mixed Dyslipidemia

Start date: May 22, 2017
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The study is divided into 2 parts. The first part of the study will be double-blinded and will last for 24 weeks. During this time, participants will be randomized in a ratio of 2:1 to receive either evolocumab once monthly (QM) or placebo QM. The second part of the study is a 24-week open label extension period. During this time all participants will receive evolocumab QM. The clinical hypothesis is that subcutaneous evolocumab QM will be well tolerated and will result in greater reduction of low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), defined as percent change from baseline at Week 24, compared with placebo QM in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive participants with hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia.

In addition the study will capture reported bleed rate, pattern of change in KOVALTRY prophylaxis dose & dosing frequency, reason for choice of treatment regimen, FVIII product switch pattern, patient treatment satisfaction and adherence, KOVALTRY pharmacokinetic data (if performed), KOVALTRY consumption, as well as safety data.
