NCT ID: NCT03373370 Completed - Diagnosis Clinical Trials

Early Diagnosis of TTR Amyloidosis by Use of Molecular Biology

ADDITION
Start date: March 17, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Peripheral neuropathies are diseases that affect the nervous system outside the brain and spinal cord, their prevalence is 1% in the general population, the causes are extremely varied with more than 200 identified causes; the main ones are diabetes, excessive alcohol consumption and chemotherapy. They may be sometimes disabling but generally preserve autonomy. Transthyretin amyloidosis is a rare multisystematic hereditary disease with autosomal dominant transmission. They present usually as a peripheral neuropathies (FAP). They are due to a point mutation of the transthyretin gene (chr 18q). FAP is secondary to endoneurial amyloid deposits and are characterized by a slowly progressive sensory, motor and autonomic. FAP is the most severe hereditary polyneuropathy of the adult are irreversible and fatal within 5 to 12 years from onset. Most frequent mutation of TTR gene is located on the second exon; but more than 100 mutations have been reported. Prevalence of FAP is 1 per 1 million inhabitants. They have been reported until 1990s' in four endemic areas North of Portugal, Sweden, Japan and Majorca. In these areas, diagnosis is facilitated because of the stereotypical presentation : a length-dependent polyneuropathy with predominant involvement of thermal and pain sensations and autonomic dysfunction, early onset in the third decade and a predominant Met30 TTR mutation. Positive family history is frequent 85% (one of the parents is affected). Diagnosis requires detection of TTR mutation by molecular biology (blood sample) and characterization of amyloid deposit on labial salivary gland biopsy.

NCT ID: NCT02846844 Completed - Polyneuropathy Clinical Trials

Start date: June 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

In a Phase-III Study Patients With Chemotherapy-induced Polyneuropathy (NCI CTC Grade 2/3) Are Randomized for an Integrated Program (IP) Including Massage, Mobilization in Posture and Transport Layers, Physical Exercises (Standard) or With Whole-body Vibration (WBV) Platform Training (Experimental).

NCT ID: NCT02706314 Completed - Critical Illness Clinical Trials

Impact of Human Blood Serum From Critically Ill Patients on Human Colon Neuronal Networks.

Start date: March 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Critical illness in the ICU setting has high medical and socioeconomic importance. Critically ill patients frequently develop severe neurologic impairment during their course of disease, typically presenting as critical-illness-polyneuropathy (CIP), which is associated with an increased mortality rate. To date neither strategies are available to predict nor to specifically treat CIP. Diagnostic tests to determine CIP during the course of critical illness are available through nerve conduction studies. Further research is needed to find diagnostic tools to identify patients who are on high risk to develop CIP, which could encourage the evolution of new therapeutic strategies for CIP patients. The aims of the study are: 1. An early detection of changes in intramural neuronal networks of human colon samples induced by human blood serum from critically ill patients in order to predict the development of CIP 2. The comparison of different diagnostic tests to diagnose and monitor CIP during the course of critical illness (neurologic examination versus nerve conduction study versus neuromyosonography)

NCT ID: NCT02442986 Completed - Myopathy Clinical Trials

Neurological Outcome in Surgical and Non-surgical Septic Patients

NOSEPP
Start date: November 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Systemic inflammation and sepsis cause multi organ failure including severe neurologic impairment in the course of disease. Neurologic failure typically presents as critical-illness-polyneuropathy/-myopathy and septic encephalopathy during sepsis and is associated with an increased mortality rate. Clinical parameters to determine the neurologic entities during the course of sepsis are heterogeneous. Further research for an association of clinical parameters and the patients' outcome is needed. The study aims toward differences in the clinical and neurological outcome of surgical and non-surgical septic patients in comparison to non-septic patients on ICU. The aim of the study is to identify clinical and diagnostic outcome predictors in septic patients.

NCT ID: NCT01450163 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Evaluate The Efficacy and Safety Of Pregabalin In Prevention, Reduction of Oxaliplatin-Induced Painful Neuropathy

PreOx
Start date: August 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Oxaliplatin (Ox) is part of most treatment regimens for colorectal cancer. However, it may induce side effects, such as a specific injury to peripheral nerves called neuropathy. Ox-induced neuropathy is frequently painful. The presence of pain after its administration may hamper the full chemotherapeutic treatment of patients with colorectal cancer receiving this agent. Recently, it has been suggested that the appearance of acute neuropathy after oxaliplatin (Ox) infusion could predict the distal polyneuropathy seen some months after treatment. These two adverse events related to Ox treatment probably share different mechanistic backgrounds. However, recent experimental data suggest that both types of peripheral neuropathies are able to induce central sensitization, a major step to the occurrence of chronic pain. Pregabalin is a molecule used to teat neuropathic pain since it can diminish the peripheral sensitization seen in this painful condition. Recently, it has also been shown that pregabalin can be used to treat neuropathic pain related to Ox treatment. In the present study, we will test the hypothesis that Pregabalin administrated exclusively for three days before and three days after the Ox infusion is able to prevent the occurrence of pain secondary to both the acute and chronic Ox-associated neuropathies. In the classical FLOX chemotherapeutic regimen, Ox is infused in nine sessions during a six-month period. Patients will be followed for a year and nerve conduction tests, quantitative sensory evaluation, pain, quality of life and functional scales will be used to assess the impact of this strategy in the prevention of pain. If this strategy proves to work, this information will have a major impact in the cancer prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer since Ox will be able to administer in its full dose, and will not be limited by neuropathic side effects.

Oxcarbazepine for the Treatment of Chronic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain

IMIOXC

The purpose of this trial is to determine if the effect of oxcarbazepine on chronic peripheral nerve pain depends on the supposed mechanism of the pain, ie. if oxcarbazepine mainly relieve pain in patients with irritable nerves.
