Filter by:This study is designed to evaluate whether or not oral viscous budesonide is effective in treating children with Eosinophilic Esophagitis.
This study is an open-label study where all subjects will receive active drug, reslizumab. Subjects are able to enter this trial only through completion of study Res-5-0002. The goal of the study is to show longer term safety and efficacy in pediatric subjects who have eosinophilic esophagitis.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of esomeprazole 20 mg once daily for 24 weeks on maintenance of Reflux Esophagitis in patients with healed reflux esophagitis in comparison with omeprazole 10 mg once daily and esomeprazole 10 mg once daily by assessment of presence/absence of recurrence of Reflux Esophagitis throughout the treatment period (from the randomisation to the treatment completion) according to the Los Angeles classification.
This study is to evaluate the efficacy of esomeprazole 20 mg once daily and 40 mg once daily for 8 weeks on healing of Reflux Esophagitis in patients with reflux esophagitis in comparison with omeprazole 20 mg once daily by assessment of presence/absence of Reflux Esophagitis at Week 8 according to the Los Angeles classification .
This study is being done to for two reasons: - To learn about the effects (good and bad) esomeprazole (an FDA approved drug for reflux esophagitis) has on your esophagus when taken correctly. - To learn about the quality of life changes (good and bad) you may experience with this medication.
The purpose of this research is to study the level of acid exposure above the gastroesophageal junction and the distal esophagus in patients with reflux symptoms using a capsule type acid measurement system. Patients with reflux symptoms are likely to have more acid reflux just above the junction of the stomach and the esophagus that may help to improve the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). This may help better treat the reflux symptoms.
This trial will study three doses of reslizumab versus placebo in children with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EE). The objectives of the trial will be to study the effectiveness of reslizumab in improving the clinical signs and symptoms and reducing esophageal eosinophils as well as assessing the safety profile compared to placebo.
Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EE) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the esophagus with a constantly increasing prevalence. It has been demonstrated that the expression of the cytokine TNF-α is up regulated in EE and that this pro-inflammatory cytokine is highly expressed by the keratinocytes of the esophageal epithelium in patients with active EE. Furthermore, it has been shown that TNF-α is capable to induce eotaxin-3 production in keratinocytes. These results suggest that TNF-α plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of EE. Based on these findings, the investigators plan a prospective T1 translational study with the purpose to evaluate the efficacy of an Infliximab monotherapy in adult patients with severe, corticosteroid-dependent EE.
Evaluate clinical effectiveness of oral montelukast compared to placebo on prevention of dysphagia and food impaction in patients with EE. Also evaluate tolerance and safety of oral montelukast in treatment of EE.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 8 weeks of daily treatment with Ilaprazole (5, 20 and 40 mg), once daily (QD), compared to lansoprazole 30 mg in healing subjects with endoscopically proven erosive esophagitis.
