Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to intravesical Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) instillation for the treatment of patients who suffers from Interstitial Cystitis / Painful bladder syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy, safety, and tolerability of JNJ-42160443 compared to placebo in patients with moderate to severe, chronic bladder pain from interstitial cystitis and/or painful bladder syndrome.
In order to investigate whether the pain in women with vulvodynia may represent bladder origin pain, we will be performing a diagnostic test for interstitial cystitis (IC) in women with generalized vulvodynia. Those women with a positive test for IC, we will be performing a series of bladder treatments (instillations) for IC and checking symptoms throughout the trial to see if significant relief of vulvar pain can be obtained through treatment for IC.
Subcutaneous administration of tanezumab can result in changes in the number of nerves around the injection site in the thigh.
In a previous study in patients with interstitial cystitis/ painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS), tanezumab has shown to be efficacious in relieving the pain associated with IC/PBS, as well as some effect on reducing urinary urgency. Only one dose was studied, and tanezumab was well tolerated. In this study, the hypothesis being tested is that tanezumab will show efficacy at several doses on reducing pain with sufficient tolerability. Tanezumab's safety will also be assessed at different dose levels
This is a retrospective study of urine samples stored in the Beaumont BioBank for future research. The urine samples will be drawn from the urine back with patients previously diagnosed with severe interstitial cystitis (IC), mild IC and no IC. Interstitial Cystitis (IC) also known as Painful Bladder Syndrome (PBS) is a chronic inflammatory disease. It has an unknown etiology, symptoms which present to varying degrees, as well as an uncertain natural history. Diagnosis of IC is based on symptoms after excluding more common and dangerous pathologies.
Anecdotal evidence suggests female patients with painful bladder disorder interstitial cystitis (IC) can experience a significant attenuation of their systems while breastfeeding. Since it has been shown that postpartum lactation is a time associated with decreased levels of stress, and stress has been shown to exacerbate IC-related pain, the investigators have developed an interest in the effects of the hormones involved in postpartum lactation on stress and pain. Based on a series of pre-clinical experiments, the investigators believe the hormone oxytoxin has both analgesic and anxiolytic properties which make it a potentially useful agent for the treatment of stress-exacerbated chronic pain syndrome such as IC. Therefore, the investigators propose a double-blinded, placebo-controlled crossover trial of intranasal oxytocin vs. intranasal saline for bladder pain in a cohort of patients with IC and some degree of continuous, daily pain.
A new device for interstitial cystitis is compared to inactive control to determine if it is safe and effective. The study lasts approximately 7 weeks with a 19-week follow-up period.
The purpose of this study is to determine if clinically relevant subsets exist in patients meeting the diagnosis of Painful Bladder Syndrome (PBS). Subsets suggest differential responses to treatments and if verified, this will be important for the stratification of patients in clinical studies related to PBS.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether more than one subpopulation exists of patients with the diagnosis of Interstitial Cystitis (IC) based on sensory testing and to determine if subjects with IC have normal counterirritation-related modulatory systems.
