Active clinical trials for "Diarrhea"

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and perform preliminary clinical evaluation in patients with mild to moderate CDAD.

In this study, female patients with IBS-d will be treated for 8 weeks to assess the safety and effectiveness of DDP225 on GI transit and in reducing IBS symptoms.

Irinotecan (7-ethyl-10- {4(-1-piperidino)-1-piperidino} carbonyloxy camptothecin) is a semisynthetic camptothecin derivative introduced in the 1980's. Irinotecan is a prodrug metabolized by carboxylesterases to an active metabolite 7-ethyl-10-hydroxy-camptothecin (SN38). SN38 exerts its cytotoxic effect by forming stable complexes with topoisomerase I and DNA. These complexes collide with replication forks and cause breaks in DNA. Studies substantiated irinotecan's activity in 5FU resistant colorectal cancer and led to its approval for treatment of 5FU resistant colorectal cancer in the United States, Canada and Europe.Colorectal cancer studies demonstrated that single agent irinotecan's dose limiting toxicity was diarrhea occurring 5 to 6 days after its administration. High dose loperamide at first occurrence of diarrhea has decreased the incidence of diarrhea but the incidence of grade 3/4 diarrhea remains high at 28 to 40%.

Approximately 300 patients will be entered into this study taking place throughout the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. This study aims to determine if an investigational drug is safe and effective for treating the symptoms of C. difficile-associated diarrhea and lowering the risk of repeat episodes of diarrhea. The investigational drug will be evaluated in comparison to current standard antibiotic treatment, so all patients will receive active medication. All study-related care is provided including doctor visits, physical exams, laboratory tests and study medication. Total length of participation is approximately 10 weeks.

The goal of this interventional clinical study is to study whether the consumption of QiMeiYan Probiotics in 25-35 young people with Mild irritable bowel syndrome (IBS Score 75 - 175) will reduce the frequency of Diarrhea. 140 eligible participants (70 males and 70 females) will be enrolled in two study sites and randomly assigned to two groups of products QiMeiYan Probiotics and placebo. All participants will consume assigned products once a day after meals and record the critical data such as photo of feces. Three site visits will be arranged and all clinical data will be captured and recorded into CTMS (Clinical Trial Management System) for statistical analysis. Researchers will compare the two groups to validate if the daily consumption of QiMeiYan Probiotics will reduce the frequency of Diarrhea in the study population.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-arm parallel group study. After qualifying for the study and signing informed consent, patients will undergo a two-week observation period during which stool consistency and frequency data and symptom data will be collected. Patients will then be randomized 60:40 to RHB-102 12 mg (BEKINDA) or placebo. Patients will continue on treatment for 8 weeks. Each medication will be given once daily.

This is a prospective, open-label, multicenter, single-arm study evaluating the efficacy and safety of Racecadotril the treatment of children aged 3 to 60 months suffering from acute diarrhea

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combined loperamide hydrochloride and simethicone compared to loperamide hydrochloride monotherapy in treating acute diarrhea associated with abdominal discomfort caused by gastrointestinal gas accumulation.

This study is an evaluation of the immune response to pentavalent rotavirus vaccine (PRV) after an additional fourth dose is given at 9 months of age with local World Health Organization (WHO) Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI) vaccines in Mali.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of YM060 once daily for female patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (D-IBS) for a long-term period (up to 52 weeks).
