Filter by:This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, first-in-human (FIH) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary antineoplastic activity of pralsetinib (BLU-667) administered orally in participants with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), RET-altered NSCLC and other RET-altered solid tumors.
This is a human research study looking at the effectiveness of Lanreotide (study medication) in treating small bowel motility disorders. It is similar to a natural hormone somatostatin that is produced in the body in the stomach, duodenum, pancreas and brain. Somatostatin is a growth hormone-inhibiting hormone. Lanreotide is a man made hormone and is a long acting medication that is given once a month. It is marketed with a trade name "Somatuline Depot". It is given deep subcutaneously (deep within the layers of the skin) in the superior external quadrant of the buttock. Injection site will be alternated on subsequent injections.
This study evaluates the impact of Endorings™ assisted colonoscopy on the number of polyps detected per patient compared to standard colonoscopy without use of EndoRings™. Half of the participants will receive EndoRings™ assisted colonoscopy, while the other half will receive standard colonoscopy.
Hospitalized patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) are at increased risk for a variety of complications such as infections, venous thrombosis, and surgery. The literature has revealed significant variation in the quality of care to hospitalized UC patients. As a result, guidelines for the management of these patients have been developed. However, the update of guidelines are variable. Admission to hospital can also have significant impact on quality of life due to interruptions in life commitments and lost sense of control of disease. Maintaining a sense of self-control of disease and active participation in care has been shown to be valuable among individuals with chronic diseases. The investigators propose the development of a multi-site, patient centred initiative aimed at improving clinical and patient-centered outcomes through an educational iPad based tool for patients admitted to hospital with ulcerative colitis.
The objective of this study is determining if enteral administration of Lactated Ringer's solution (LR) in preterm infants with feeding intolerance enables for faster advancement of milk feeding than fasting.
The purpose of the HARMONY study is to assess the safety and efficacy of an investigational drug called HuZAF, in patients with moderate to severe Crohn's disease (CD). HuZAF is a humanized anti-Interferon-gamma (anti-IFN-γ) monoclonal antibody, which binds and blocks IFN-γ, a protein in the immune system that is involved in inflammation. Antibodies are proteins normally produced by our immune system to help fight off foreign substances. Scientists have been able to make therapeutic humanized monoclonal antibodies, similar to the antibodies in our bodies, to target diseases.
