Filter by:Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) can affect patients all age group and clinical symptoms of the disease varies depending on the patient's ages. Infants and toddlers with EoE generally have food refusal, vomiting and poor weight gain. Older school-aged children and adolescents may have abdominal and chest pain, difficulty in swallowing (dysphagia) especially in solid foods. In the meantime, many children especially infants and toddlers, are not perceptive of their dysphagia, because they have the ability to compensate. Such as, avoiding certain textures or increases liquid intake in the meal.To date, to our knowledge, there is no study in the literature has investigated complex swallowing behaviour (including all phases), oral-motor evaluation and/or swallowing safety. Thus, the present study purposed to investigate (a) descriptive and clinical swallowing characteristics of children with EoE (b) the relation between disease characteristic and swallowing function.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether oral etrasimod is a safe and effective treatment for active eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) in adult participants.
In this project the investigators will look for auto-antibodies to relevant proteins both in native form and importantly in post-translationally modified forms. Potential modified auto-antigens are eosinophil proteins (analogous to the cytoplasmic neutrophil proteins identified in vasculitides such as Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (formerly known as Wegener's granulomatosis) and alternatively structural proteins such as collagen V. As well as advancing the understanding of asthma pathology, identifying a serum auto-antibody that could then be used as a clinical blood test, analogous to anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibodies in rheumatoid arthritis, may revolutionise diagnosis of severe eosinophilic asthma and Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (EGPA). There is a considerable burden of undiagnosed severe eosinophilic asthma in part due to difficulties in definitive diagnosis and a diagnostic blood test would help diagnose these patients, allowing them to receive necessary treatment.
The FARE Patient Registry will serve as a prospective, observational food allergy reporting system that stores detailed health and other basic information about patients' real-world experiences with food allergies, to encourage open sharing of de-identified data and participation in clinical trials. The FARE Patient Registry intends to make and support scientific discoveries by enabling the food allergy community to participate directly in research.
The purpose of this study is to investigate prostaglandin and cannabinoid receptors and their endogenous ligands in eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). A prostaglandin D2 receptor antagonist has been shown to improve disease symptoms suggesting a regulatory role for bioactive lipids in EoE. Prostaglandin D2 and E2, and endocannabinoids are lipid mediators that govern the functional and inflammatory behavior of immune cells critical for EoE development. The prostaglandin D2 and E2 receptor axis, and the components of the endocannabinoid may be involved in the pathogenesis of EoE.
This is a Phase 3, open-label, extension study to assess the long term efficacy and safety of lirentelimab given monthly.
This is a single and multiple ascending study to characterize the safety, PK, PD and clinical effect in healthy volunteers and participants with Celiac Disease and Eosinophilic Esophagitis.
The aim of this Phase 3 study is to investigate the use of benralizumab as a treatment for patients with EoE. The effect of doses of benralizumab on EoE histologic signs and symptoms will be assessed over a 52-week treatment period (including a 24-week double-blind placebo-controlled treatment period and a 28-week open-label treatment period). It is proposed that benralizumab will deplete eosinophils from GI tissue(s), improve the symptoms of dysphagia, and improve endoscopy scores as well as other markers of disease activity. Upon completion of the initial 52-week treatment period, patients will be offered an additional Open Label Extension period of at least 1 year, with benralizumab treatment and ongoing study assessments.
Develop a registry (list of patients) with accurate clinical motility diagnosis. This registry will help the doctors to identify the patients with specific disease conditions. It will also help in promoting future research in gastroenterology motility disorders
This observational study will follow pediatric patients with eosinophilic esophagitis who are scheduled to begin topical steroid treatment, from the initiation of treatment longitudinally to determine the safety profile of the drug.
