Active clinical trials for "Eosinophilia"

This is a single-centre, double-blinded, randomised, placebo controlled trial comparing mepolizumab 100mg versus placebo in patients with eosinophilic COPD, started following their index admission to hospital.

Evaluation of efficacy and safety of Baricitinib combined with glucocorticoid in patients of IgG4-related disease with eosinophilia.

The study is researching an experimental drug called dupilumab. The study is focused on participants with active eosinophilic gastritis (EoG) with or without eosinophilic duodenitis (EoD). Participants with EoD only are not eligible for enrollment. EoG and EoD are uncommon, persistent, allergic/immune diseases in which eosinophils (a type of white blood cell) gather in large numbers in the stomach and small intestine and cause inflammation and damage. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of dupilumab on relieving EoG (with or without EoD) symptoms and reducing inflammation in the stomach and, if applicable, small intestine in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older, compared to placebo. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: What side effects may happen from taking the study drug How much study drug is in your blood at different times Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects) Exploratory research to better understand the study drug and EoG with or without EoD and related diseases.

40 participants with Eosinophilic Gastritis 12-70 years of age will be randomly assigned with dupilumab or placebo subcutaneous injections every two weeks for a total of 12 weeks. Study subjects who complete the 12-week treatment phase, may continue into an open label extension study, where dupilumab will be administered every two weeks for a total of 24 weeks.

This phase II trial studies how well ruxolitinib works in treating patients with hypereosinophilic syndrome or primary eosinophilic disorders.

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the effects of two newly available biological drugs for the treatment of severe chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps in Danish patients. The main questions it aims to answer are whether the two drugs are comparable in effect after 24 weeks in terms of: A subjective score (the SNOT-22) An objective score, i.e.the physician-assessed score of nasal polyp size (the Nasal Polyp Score (0-8)) Methods: Participants will be randomized into two groups and receive either drug in the standard dose. After 24 weeks the effect is assessed. If the clinical effect is sufficient in terms of the criteria set by the Danish Medicinal Council (see elsewhere), treatment continues with the same drug for an additional 24 weeks. If the effect criteria are not met, the subject crosses-over to the opposite drug for an additional 24 weeks. After 48 weeks the effect is assessed once more.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CC-93538 in adult and adolescent participants with eosinophilic gastroenteritis.

Eosinophilic fasciitis (EF) is a rare musculoskeletal disorder characterized by inflammation and thickening of the fascia, leading to pain, stiffness, and functional impairment. Conventional treatment options include immunosuppressive medications, corticosteroids, and physical therapy. This case report will describe use of high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) using the Mectronic Exand MY high-intensity laser system in a patient with EF, highlighting its potential as an alternative or adjunct treatment option.

This study evaluates the influence of home air purification on the lung health of adults with eosinophilic COPD. Half of the participants will receive real air purifiers (HEPA filters) and half will receive sham air purifiers.

Acid reduction remains the most common treatment prescribed empirically by pediatric gastroenterologists for children with functional dyspepsia (FD). When acid reduction therapy fails to provide patients with a therapeutic effect, ketotifen and cromolyn, mast cell stabilizers, represent an attractive potential therapy given data implicating mast cells in the generation of dyspeptic symptoms. Although there have been no adult or pediatric studies on the use of mast cell stabilizers in patients with FD, benefit has been demonstrated in adults with IBS and children with eosinophilic gastroenteritis. Additionally, previous studies show mucosal eosinophilia is highly correlated with functional dyspepsia. Our usual current treatment pathway for functional dyspepsia in association with duodenal mucosal eosinophilia is as follows: acid-reducing medication/montelukast → addition of H1 antagonist → addition of budesonide → addition of oral cromolyn. If ketotifen is effective, it offers the advantage of being able to replace both the H1 antagonist and the oral cromolyn at a substantially reduced cost (approximately 10% of the cost of cromolyn alone). This study aims to introduce ketotifen earlier in the treatment pathway to examine its efficacy on children with functional dyspepsia in association with duodenal eosinophilia.
