Active clinical trials for "Amyloidosis"

Observational multicenter registry of cohorts with follow-up. Patients with heart failure, age ≥ 18 years, with clinical suspicion of cardiac amyloidosis and any LVEF value, treated in the field of Internal Medicine. Initially, a duration of two years was established to recruit at least 150 patients in the group with AC, and a follow-up of two years. Upon completion of the two years of follow-up, the continuity or completion of the registry will be assessed.

Prognosis of small vessel disease (SVD) depends on the underlying type of SVD and index manifestation. The aim of this prospective, observational cohort study is to determine the risk of different outcome events among patients with SVD according to the type of index presentation.

Background: Periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis, and cervical adenitis (PFAPA) is the most common periodic fever syndrome of childhood. Symptoms can include swelling of the glands in the throat, mouth ulcers, and tonsillitis. Removal of the tonsils can stop the periodic flareups. But researchers do not know how PFAPA develops. In this natural history study, researchers will collect specimens and data from people with PFAPA to see what they might have in common. Objective: To collect blood and other specimens from people with PFAPA to learn more about the illness. Eligibility: People aged 1 month or older with symptoms of PFAPA or another tonsil disorder. Design: Participants will be screened. Their medical records will be reviewed. Researchers will ask about a family history of PFAPA. The following specimens may be collected: Blood. Blood will be drawn either from a needle inserted into a vein or from a prick in the finger or heel. Mucus and cells. A stick with soft padding on the tip may be rubbed inside the nostrils or mouth. Stool. Saliva. Tissue samples may be taken if participants are having surgery to remove the tonsils or adenoids. Participants having surgery may also have a nasopharyngeal wash; salt water will be squirted into the back of the throat and then sucked back out with a syringe. Most participants will provide specimens only once. They can do this in person at the clinic; they can also have their local health providers send specimens to the researchers. Some participants may have optional follow-up visits over 10 years.

The aim of the study is to evaluate coronary flow reserve (CFR), index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR), and proportion of overt microvascular disease, defined as depressed CFR as well as elevated IMR in patients with cardiac amyloidosis. The second objective of this study is to compare results of non-invasive test including serum light chain amount, Doppler echocardiography with 2D strain, and cardiac perfusion MRI. The third object of this study is to evaluate the association between physiologic indices and pathologically measured percent area involvement of interstitium.

ATTR amyloidosis is a serious condition with significant morbidity and mortality. In Germany, there are numerous unreported cases of untreated patients, and diagnosing and initiating treatment often requires multiple specialized tests. To address this, a study is being conducted to determine if virtual reality (VR)-based patient education can improve diagnosis rates, treatment initiation, and medication adherence compared to standard education methods.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether specific probiotic can reduce gastrointestinal symptoms and improves therapeutic response, on a background of Bortezomib+dexamethasone or Bortezomib+dexamethasone combined with daratumumab therapy, for naive AL amyloidosis patients.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of NEOD001 in subjects with AL amyloidosis who have completed Study NEOD001-201.

The investigators expect to enroll 15 participants with relapsed or refractory IgM-associated AL amyloidosis onto this Phase II clinical trial. Idelalisib will be self-administered orally at a dose of 100 mg twice daily (may be increased to 150 mg (one tablet) twice daily after 3 months at investigator discretion). Participants will be treated until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or decision to withdraw from the trial. Disease evaluations will be performed every three months until disease progression.

This is a multicenter, Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-arm, parallel-group efficacy and safety study of NEOD001 as a single agent administered intravenously in adults with AL amyloidosis who have a maintained hematologic response to their most recent treatment for AL amyloidosis (e.g., chemotherapy, autologous stem cell transplant [ASCT]) and have persistent renal dysfunction.

This study measures circulating, misfolded ATTR oligomers in asymptomatic ATTRm amyloidosis genetic carriers longitudinally over five years.
