Filter by:This study is a prospective single-center Phase I clinical study in patients with EGFR/ALK/ROS1 driver oncogene negative, and advanced or metastatic NSCLC. This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety preliminarily in a small-size of propranolol hydrochloride in combination with sintilimab and platinum-based chemotherapy in first-line therapy. Propranolol hydrochloride is a beta- adrenergic blocking agent which is associated with augment of immune cell responses. Propranolol hydrochloride may improve the responses of immune checkpoint inhibitors in treating patients with advanced NSCLC.
Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) is one of the important risk factors influencing poor outcomes and death in stroke patients. Over the past two decades, accumulating evidence suggests that post-stroke brain injury mobilizes the adrenergic system, which induces post-stroke immunosuppression and SAP. This study is designed to test the safety and efficacy of an adrenergic β-receptor blocker, propranolol, with or without combination of antibiotics, in reducing SAP in stroke patients. The underlying immune mechanisms will be investigated.
Infantile hemangiomas are widespread vascular tumours having incidence of 10% and most of them involute spontaneously. However, they are known to be located in proximity of vital organs and can have poor cosmetic and functional sequel if left untreated. A wide range of treatment options are available from expectant therapy to radical surgical excision. Propanolol has also been shown to be effective in treating infantile cutaneous hemangiomas. Similarly, anti-metabolite drugs as bleomycin has also shown promising results. Efficacy in terms of reduction in size of both treatments has been scarcely studied especially in Pakistan. OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy of oral propranolol and intraleisonal bleomycin in the treatment of infantile cutaneous hemangioma in terms of size regression
50 Patients, aged from 18 to 39 years, ASA physical status I and II, undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery will be enrolled in the study.The patients will be randomly allocated by simple randomization using a computer programme into two groups by closed envelope technique (having 25 patients in each group): GROUP (P): will receive oral propranolol (INDERAL® -propranolol hydrochloride Ph. Eur. 10mg manufactured by AstraZeneca Egypt under license of AstraZeneca UK), 10 mg one tablet at 8:00 pm in the evening before the day of the surgery and one 10 mg tablet one hour before the induction of anesthesia. GROUP (I): will receive oral ivabradine (Procoralan® 5mg manufactured by Servier laboratories, France), 5 mg one tablet at 8:00 pm in the evening before the day of the surgery and one 5 mg tablet one hour before the induction of anesthesia.
