Filter by:Open-label study of an investigational product (IP), QLS-101, with 28-day every morning (QAM) dosing to both eyes (OU) in adolescents with SWS who have clinical evidence of glaucoma and/or ocular hypertension (OHT) related to SWS elevated EVP in at least one eye.
Laser treatment (LT) is the first-line treatment for Vascular Pathology. However even when LT is based on the selective photothermolysis it causes the first-degree burns. While being typically benign by affecting only the epidermis, or outer layer of skin, the burn site is remaining red, dry, and very painful. As Haemoblock contains nanoparticles of silver and is known for both bactericidal and bacteriostatic effects, it likely decreases the potential for infection postoperatively. Furthermore, after fibrin replaces the superficial structure "Hemoblock-albumin", the polyacrylate matrix is plasmolyzed which initiates the cascade of signals required for the tissue regeneration processes. Objective of the study was to examine the effect of the Regenerative Solution "Hemoblock" in lowering postoperative complications in children diagnosed with Vascular Pathology undergoing a laser surgery if delivered with transdermal patches.
Safety and tolerability study of 2 concentrations of QLS-101 for adult subjects with Sturge Weber Syndrome (SWS)-related glaucoma due to elevated episcleral venous pressure (EVP).
The purpose of this study is to better understand the utility of cannabidiol (CBD/ Epidiolex) for improving the treatment of cognitive impairments in Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS).
The purpose of this research study is to gain a preliminary understanding of the safety of sirolimus in Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) and determine best outcomes to be used to assess the utility of sirolimus for the treatment of cognitive impairments related to Sturge-Weber syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to determine the tolerability and optimal dose of cannabidiol (CBD) as an simultaneous treatment in children and young adults with Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) and drug resistant epilepsy.
Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a rare congenital neuro-cutaneous disorder considered as a rare or orphan disease. SWS is characterized by a capillary vascular malformation (CM) localized on the skin of the face, eyes and central nervous system. Given the localization and the extent of the CM, children with SWS are particularly prone to developing severe psychological problems. The standard treatment for CM is pulsed dye laser (PDL) although in these cases whitening of the lesion is rarely achieved. Combining topical rapamycin, a specific inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin, with PDL is hypothesised to be a good therapeutic option in these patients.
Port Wine Stain on a limb can be either isolated or associated with complications (venous or orthopedic impairment, arteriovenous malformations), leading sometimes to complex syndromes (Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome,Parkes-Weber syndrome). Little is known about epidemiology of port wine stains: their evolution during the growth of the child, the frequency of complications, genetic data, and prognostic factors. This prospective french national cohort will help for : description of the evolution of port wine stain and possible complications; prognostic factors for complications ; association with mutations of RASA1 gene; quality of life of these children. It will also help for global appreciation of the management of this disease in France.
This is a study of 40 individuals with Sturge-Weber Syndrome (SWS) brain and/or eye involvement. It will examine the test-retest reliability of the following clinical tests: 1. Quantitative EEG 2. Transcranial Doppler 3. Medical Rehabilitation Scales 4. Optical Coherence Tomography
This research is being done to find out if the Atkins Diet can be used safely and effectively to reduce seizures in children who have Sturge Weber syndrome. The ketogenic diet is a proven therapy for epilepsy, but can be difficult to use in children. The Atkins Diet is a high fat, high protein, low carbohydrate diet introduced in the 1970s to help with weight loss. It is different from the ketogenic diet in four major ways: no calorie restriction, no fluid restriction, no protein restriction, and is easy to start outside the hospital. People on the Atkins Diet become ketotic (produce high levels of ketones, a certain substance in the body), like patients on the ketogenic diet, and the investigators believe this may lead to seizure control. Children aged 2-18 with Sturge Weber syndrome and seizures at least monthly, who have used at least two anti-seizure drugs may join. 5 children in total will be enrolled.
