Active clinical trials for "Esophagitis"

Evaluate clinical effectiveness of oral montelukast compared to placebo on prevention of dysphagia and food impaction in patients with EE. Also evaluate tolerance and safety of oral montelukast in treatment of EE.

The primary objective is to compare the efficacy between three doses of AZD0865 (25, 50 and 75 mg). The secondary objectives are to compare the efficacy between the three doses of AZD0865 and esomeprazole 40 mg and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AZD0865.

S-Tenatoprazole-Na (STU-Na), a new drug currently under clinical development, belongs to a class of drugs, called proton pump inhibitors (PPls). Some PPIs are already commercially available. STU-Na will be used for treatment of acid related diseases (gastroduodenal ulcers, erosive or ulcerative esophagitis due to gastroesophageal reflux disease). This study evaluates the degree of acid suppression by different doses of STU-Na. The degree of acid suppression is considered to be correlated with clinical efficacy. In this study four dosages of STU-Na (30 mg, 60 mg, 90 mg, and 120 mg) will be tested in each volunteer. First, one of the dosages will be orally administered for five days. Then, a nine to sixteen day period without study drug administration will follow prior to the administration of the next dosage, for again five days. Each volunteer will have a total of four study drug administration periods. After the last study drug intake in period 1, 2 and 3 pharmacokinetic blood sampling will be done for four days. After the last study drug intake in period 4 pharmacokinetic blood sampling will be done for five days. Pharmacokinetic blood sampling consists of several blood draws over a pre-determined time period. The pharmacokinetic blood sampling measures the medication concentration in the blood at pre-defined time points. After the last study drug intake in period 1, 2, 3, and 4, gastric acidity will be measured for 24 hours by means of a thin tube that will be inserted into the stomach through the nostril to evaluate the efficacy of the different dosages of STU-Na.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 8 weeks of daily treatment with Ilaprazole (5, 20 and 40 mg), once daily (QD), compared to lansoprazole 30 mg in healing subjects with endoscopically proven erosive esophagitis.

This was a randomized controlled trial of swallowed fluticasone vs. placebo for eosinophilic esophagitis. Eosinophilic esophagitis is an inflammatory condition in which the wall of the esophagus becomes filled with large numbers of eosinophils, a type of white blood cell. Patients who have this condition have difficulty in swallowing (dysphagia) solid food. Prior to treatment the patients had biopsies of their esophagus and took questionnaires regarding their symptoms. Treatment was given for 6 weeks, after which biopsies were taken from the esophagus to measure any changes in the tissue from before treatment. The primary endpoint was improvement in dysphagia as measured by the validated Mayo Dysphagia Questionaire. Secondary outcomes included partial symptom response, and histologic (tissue) response to treatment.

To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of DWP14012 40 mg compared to esomeprazole magnesium enteric-coated tablets for the treatment of reflux esophagitis.

This is a single-site, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial to study efficacy and safety of the Viaskin® Milk Patch for children with milk induced Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE). 20 subjects will be randomized 3:1 to Viaskin® Milk or placebo patch.

This is a comparative study of vonoprazan (TAK-438) (10 mg or 20 mg) in participants in whom endoscopic healing of erosive esophagitis has been confirmed with vonoprazan or adequate treatment with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), to demonstrate the non-inferiority of vonoprazan to lansoprazole in their maintenance treatment (6 months or 24 weeks) as well as to determine the clinically recommended dose for vonoprazan for maintenance therapy in erosive esophagitis.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effective dose(s) of RPC4046 in the treatment of Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE). This trial consists of two phases: 16 weeks of double-blind treatment and 52 weeks of open-label extension.

This is a prospective single center clinical trial of allergen-specific immune signature-guided dietary elimination therapy to assess the clinical effectiveness of this technique.
