Active clinical trials for "Hypersensitivity"

This is a single arm pilot trial to evaluate the feasibility of using a simvastatin intervention, and to evaluate its effects on cancer progression, among 20 patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer, treated with carboplatin and liposomal doxorubicin at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

This is a study of pembrolizumab (MK-3475, KEYTRUDA®) in combination with lenvatinib (E7080) for the treatment of platinum sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer. Participants will receive pembrolizumab and lenvatinib.

This is an extension study to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of ligelizumab in particiants who have completed a ligelizumab Phase III study in food allergy.

At present there is no cure for food allergy. People with a food allergy need to avoid the food they are allergic to in order to stay safe, but we know that accidental exposure is common. Researchers have begun to look at the effectiveness of 'oral immunotherapy' as a treatment for food allergy but results have been mixed. This study is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of Fish Immunotherapy (FOIT), with codfish as the primary focus, in inducing tolerance in children with fish allergy compared with Placebo. Children will take increasing doses of codfish protein until a total of 12 months treatment is completed. Children will be tested for fish allergy at the start of the study, at the end of fish treatment T1 (12 months) and T2 (8 weeks) after treatment.

The overall aims of this study are to demonstrate that treatment with PVX108 immunotherapy has an acceptable safety profile and is effective for reducing clinical reactivity to peanut protein in children and adolescents with peanut allergy.

The goal of this study is to evaluate the consistency between in vitro tumor organoid drug sensitivity and the therapeutic efficacy of in vivo drug treatment. Participants are required to provide one of fresh tumor tissues (including ascites, pleural effusion, biopsy tissues, palliative surgery specimens, etc.) for the purpose of culturing tumor organoids.

This randomized controlled trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Docetaxel combined with Platinum-based drugs compared with Docetaxel alone for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer patients carrying DNA repair mutation.

To investigate the use of hyperimmune bovine colostrum to reduce gluten absorption. A double-blind, cross-over study will be performed in which persons who are following a strict gluten-free diet will be challenged with oral gluten with or without the bovine colostrum.

End-stage heart failure (HF) is a progressive illness with a mortality rate similar to most advanced cancers.Roughly 5% of patients with HF have end-stage disease that is refractory to medical therapy (stage D heart failure). When patients reach this point in their disease, the only treatments known to prolong life are cardiac transplantation or left ventricular assist devices. In patients who do not qualify for these options, or elect a palliative approach, inotropes are frequently used to improve hemodynamics through an increase in cardiac output and reduction in filling pressures. While inotropes provide profound symptomatic relief, these benefits are accompanied by significant risks of progressive adverse cardiac remodeling, arrhythmias, and sudden death. There is, therefore, an urgent need to develop strategies to reduce the dose or duration of inotrope use in the management of patients with stage D of HF.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of an amino acid-based formula Neocate Jr in children with food protein allergy, and to evaluate nutrition sufficiency of Neocate Jr in 1 to 10 years old children with food protein allergy.
