Filter by:Patients with Interstitial Cystitis / PBS will be treated with bladder thermal distention (BTD).
The purposes of the study is to determine if LiRIS®, an investigational drug-delivery system, is safe and tolerable in women with Interstitial Cystitis (IC), and to evaluate any change in IC symptoms following LiRIS administration.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn how the drug cidofovir given as 1 dose directly into the bladder is absorbed by the body. Researchers also want to measure the amount of study drug in the body at different time points. The safety and tolerability of this drug will also be studied. Cidofovir is designed to fight certain viruses by blocking the virus cells from dividing.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of additional hyaluronic acid/chondroitin sulfate to transurethral resection of bladder ulcer in patient with interstitial cystitis.
This study will enroll 30 female patients with the first time urinary tract infection (UTI), 30 female patients with recurrent UTI and 10 female without any prior history of UTI or urinary tract pathology will be invited to serve as the controls. Urine samples will be collected in the patients at baseline, 7 days after antibiotics treatment, and 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks. Urinalysis will be performed at each visit and urine culture will be performed at baseline and at the 2 weeks and 3 months visits. Urine samples at baseline and 3 months will be collected from the controls for comparison.
Pilot study to compare the efficacy and safety of 3-day, twice-daily regimens of nitrofurantoin and ciprofloxacin in emergency department (ED) patients presenting with UBC.
This research study seeks to provide more insight as to how the microbiome affects or is affected by conditions causing chronic pelvic pain such as Interstitial Cystitis (IC), Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CP/CPPS), Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS), or Overactive bladder (OAB). Depression and many chronic pain disorders are often related and are poorly understood, and treatment is often not helpful. The goal of this study is to explain pelvic pain characteristics and causes by studying microbiomes of healthy people compared to people suffering from IC, CP/CPPS, LUTS, OAB, and Major depression.
Interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) is a poorly understood chronic disorder of unknown etiology consisting of irritative bladder symptoms and pelvic pain that dramatically affects quality of life. Preclinical study data (obtained by using an IC/PBS model in Sprague-Dawley female rats) have demonstrated normalization of urinary frequency indicating that LP may be a potent protectant of the bladder mucosa against inflammation and irritation. Intravesical LP has so far demonstrated an excellent safety profile and minimal toxicity at concentrations of 2 mg/ml. Thus, we hypothesize that intravesical instillation of LP may form a molecular film on bladder ulcer surfaces in patients with IC and provide a safe, effective, and minimally invasive treatment option to alleviating symptoms.
This study is done to investigate the pain relieving effects of the study drug Gralise (a novel long acting gabapentinoid) for people who experience chronic pelvic pain. Subjects with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Interstitial Cystitis, Ulcerative Colitis, and Prostatitis will be recruited. The purpose of this research is to look at how the study drug can be used to benefit people who experience this type of pain. This is a phase IV study done to study the safety and effectiveness of the drug. At this point the drug has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration and has been reported to be well tolerated and effective in the treatment of various chronic pain conditions, particularly in neuropathic pain. About 36 subjects will take part in this study.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the relief of symptoms after Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) in patients with late radiation cystitis by having Expanded Prostate cancer Index Composite (EPIC)symptom estimation scale as primary variable. Study hypothesis: - HBOT can reduce or reverse the change or otherwise limit the damage of the bladder function and/or structure, which arose as a result of radiation therapy of cancer in the pelvic region organs. - The effects of HBOT are associated with relief of symptoms that, at least in part, is related to the reduction of the extent of the radiation damage. - Vascular density increases, fibrosis prevalence and inflammatory activity are reduced as a sign of an improved function of the mucosa. - Treatment results of HBOT remains, in whole or in part, during the follow-up (residual effect)
