Filter by:The aim is to determine the metabolic factors, host immune factors, and medical imaging data associated with the development of HepatoCellular Carcinoma (HCC) in patients with alcohol-related liver disease or dysmetabolic steatosis/Non-Alcoholic SteatoHepatitis. The investigators will include patients with and without cirrhosis in order to identify early molecular mechanisms involved in the development of HCC especially in non-cirrhotic patients.
This is a Phase 2a, single -center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate type 1 collagen deposition in the lungs following once-daily treatment with PLN-74809 for 12-weeks. This study is occurring at Massachusetts General Hospital.
A phase 2, multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, phage kinetics, and efficacy of inhaled AP-PA02 administered in subjects with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis and chronic pulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which is caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in an ongoing global pandemic. It is unclear whether the relatively low number of reported cases of COVID-19 in people with CF (pwCF) is due to enhanced infection prevention practices or whether pwCF have protective genetic/immune factors. This study aims to prospectively assess the proportion of pwCF, including both adults and children with CF who have evidence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies over a two-year period. This study will also examine whether pwCF who have antibodies for SARS-CoV-2 have a different clinical presentation and what impact this has on their CF disease. The proposed study will recruit pwCF from paediatric and adult CF centres in Europe. Serological testing to detect antibodies will be performed on blood samples taken at month 0, 6, 12, 18 and 24 with additional time-points if bloodwork is available via normal clinical care. Clinical data on, lung function, CF-related medical history, pulmonary exacerbations, antibiotic use, and microbiology and vaccination receipt, will be collected during routine clinical assessments. Associations will be examined between socio-demographic and clinical variables and serologic testing. The effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on clinical outcomes and analyse end-points will be examined to explore any age-related or gender-based differences, as well as subgroup analysis of outcomes in lung-transplant recipients and pwCF receiving CFTR modulator therapies. As pwCF receive COVID-19 vaccination a comparison of the development and progression of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in pwCF following natural infection and vaccination SARS-CoV-2 over time will be performed
This randomized controlled study aimed to determine the effect of the exercise program to be applied in patients with cirrhosis on the patient's biochemistry parameters, quality of life, fatigue level, depression, and sleep quality.
This study is being done to see if losartan affects the chances of developing radiation-induced heart failure in patients who are receiving radiation therapy as part of standard of care treatment for breast cancer. The interventions involved in this study are: - Losartan - Radiation Therapy (standard of care)
The study carries out Sweet Tests and CFTR-mutation screening to explore the prevalence, clinical characteristics, and prognosis of cystic fibrosis, as well as the CFTR-mutation spectrum in Chinese adults with bronchiectasis. The study is multi-centered, prospective, non-interventional, and observational.
This is a phase II, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to assess the efficacy and safety of HSK31858 in non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFBE) participants.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by mutations in the gene encoding CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), which is located at 7q31.2 and encodes 1480 amino acids. CFTR protein is responsible for regulating the transport of electrolytes and chloride across epithelial and mucus-producing cell membranes.
The goal of this observational study is to provide optimal monitoring and support when initiating ETI treatment in eligible persons with cystic fibrosis (aged 12 y +) and to document on a daily basis, from 72 hours before the start of treatment and then for 14 days i) i) FEV1 changes (home spirometry), ii) ii) respiratory symptoms changes, iii) any possible side effects. Through a dedicated electronic platform, these data will be monitored every day by the medical team, which will be fully available for any questions or concerns patients may have.
