Active clinical trials for "Enteritis"

PRIMARY: To assess the effect of bovine anti-Cryptosporidium immunoglobulin (BACI) on the volume of diarrhea due to Cryptosporidium parvum in AIDS patients who have protracted Cryptosporidium enteritis. SECONDARY: To assess changes in stool consistency and frequency, body weight, and safety in this patient population.

To obtain absorption, metabolism and excretion data for parent drug and any metabolites.

What is the difference between the use of one drug (Oral Metronidazole) versus the use of this same drug combined with another drug (Rifampin) in treatment of bacteria and infection-associated diarrhea in patients? This infection is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in both the community and hospitals, and the leading cause of hospital and chronic facility-acquired diarrhea. Research is important for the treatment of this infection. Patient care with use of two medication treatment regimens will be studied.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of four doses of SGX201 in subjects with rectal cancer treated with concurrent radiation and chemotherapy.

The purpose of the study is to determine the efficacy of a vaccine against enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC)-caused diarrhea.

This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamic effect of subcutaneous lirentelimab (AK002), given monthly for 6 doses, in subjects with moderate to severe Eosinophilic Gastritis and/or Eosinophilic Duodenitis who have an inadequate response with, lost response to, or were intolerant to standard therapies.

Acute illness is the most common presentation of children attending ambulatory care settings. Serious infections (e.g. meningitis, sepsis, pyelonephritis, pneumonia) are rare, but their impact is quite large (increased morbidity, mortality, induced fear in parents and defensive behaviour in clinicians). Early recognition and adequate referral of serious infections are essential to avoid complications (e.g. hearing loss after bacterial meningitis) and their accompanied mortality. Secondly, we aim to reduce the number of investigations, referrals, treatments and hospitalisations in children who are diagnosed with a non-serious infection. Apart from the cost-effectiveness, this could lead to less traumatic experiences for the child and less fear induction for the concerned parent. Finally, we aim to support the clinicians to rationalise their antibiotic prescribing behaviour, resulting in a reduction of antibiotic resistance in the long run.

Ionizing radiation has cytotoxic effects, and is commonly used as treatment for neoplasm. A common adverse effect of radiation is acute diarrhoea. Glutamine is an aminoacid with antioxidant effects that can protect tissues of damage dued to radiation. The investigators designed a randomized, double-blind trial phase III to study if glutamine prevents acute radiation enteritis.

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), including Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) and IBD-unclassified (IBD-U), are characterised by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Over the past 50 years, the incidence of IBD has increased globally, with the highest increase in industrialised countries. During the last 25 years, the incidence of IBD has increased dramatically among teenagers in northern France, with an increase of 126% and 156% for CD and UC, respectively. Physical fitness is a set of attributes related to a person's ability to perform physical activities that require aerobic capacity, endurance, strength or flexibility and is determined by a combination of regular physical activity and genetically inherited ability. Physical fitness, widely recognised as an important health determinant, plays an important role in growth and development. Due to the evidence-based importance of physical fitness for young people's health status, attention should be paid to the assessment of physical fitness at these ages and whatever the health status. At this time, there is no study on the assessment of physical fitness in IBD pediatric patient.

This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-ascending-dose study to assess the PK, safety, and tolerability of SYN-020 oral delayed release capsules (SYN 020) in healthy adults. At least 1 exploratory PD endpoint will also be assessed.
