Filter by:The proposed preliminary field evaluation will compare a point-of-care (POC) transaminase test with the standard of care test used in an HIV clinic at the Hospital for Tropical Diseases in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Drug re-administration or rechallenge should be avoided after drug-induced liver injury (DILI) to avoid recurrent and fatal injury. Rechallenge outcomes vary considerably by drug and patient subjects. In order to better predict these outcomes, the objective of this analysis is to assess clinical outcomes of positive drug rechallenge following possible drug-induced liver injury. Electronic medical records from Kaiser Permanente California (KPSC), a managed care organization, will be utilized to identify patients who experience possible drug-induced liver injury following exposure to medications associated with hepatotoxicity, and who are then rechallenged with the medication.
The purpose of the study is to estimate plasma drug levels ( free and total drug levels ) of rifampicin and other antituberculosis drugs and compare these drug levels in patients who develop drug induced hepatotoxicity versus those who do not .The study hypothesis is that the ATT drug induced hepatotoxicity is related to free drug levels of rifampicin and other antituberculosis drugs .
Moxifloxacin is a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent used to treat common community-acquired respiratory tract infections, complicated intra-abdominal infections, and pelvic inflammatory disease. In the clinical development program, moxifloxacin was associated with some hepatic adverse drug reactions. To evaluate further the hepatic safety profile of moxifloxacin, a retrospective cohort study with nested case-control analysis will be conducted to assess the rate of noninfectious acute liver injury among new users of moxifloxacin and of other antimicrobials prescribed for similar indications, including amoxicillin, amoxicillin plus clavulanic acid, cefuroxime, clarithromycin, doxycycline, levofloxacin, and telithromycin. The study will be implemented in the population included in the HealthCore Integrated Research Database (HIRD). Eligible patients are adults aged 18 years and older with continuous enrollment in the HIRD for at least 6 months before their first claim for a prescription for a study antimicrobial. Follow-up will start at the date of the first prescription until the date of the earliest of the following events: noninfectious acute liver injury, occurrence of an exclusion criterion, end of study period, disenrollment from database, or death. Patients with chronic alcoholism or cirrhosis, infectious hepatitis, HIV/AIDS, or pregnant women will not be included.
The investigators want to know the role of Peripheral hematopoietic stem cell infusion in avoiding Drug Induced Liver Injury,and also try to research SNPs genotyping associated with Drug Induced Liver Injury.
The purpose of this study is to try to develop new blood tests that may help doctors identify if a drug is hurting a person's liver.
Acetaminophen is commonly used to treat fever or pain. Your body clears acetaminophen by processing it in the liver. During the processing, some of the acetaminophen may bind to proteins in the liver. The protein-acetaminophen product is called an "adduct." After a large acetaminophen overdose, the liver has to process a lot of acetaminophen, so large amounts of adducts are formed. However, we have found that lower levels may be formed even when people take recommended doses. The purpose of this study is to measure the amount of adducts formed when healthy people who do not drink alcohol take normal doses of acetaminophen for 10 days.
Purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of different re-introduction regimens in anti-TB drug induced liver damage. There is no consensus how best to treat such patients who developed drug induced liver damage.
