Active clinical trials for "Hyperplasia"

Purpose of this clinical phase 1 trial was to determine if para-chloro-2-[18F]fluoroethyletomidate positron emission computed tomography ([18F]CETO-positron emission computed tomography(PET)/computed tomography(CT)) can be used in diagnostics of adrenal tumors and if the biochemical/pharmacological states conditions in humans with various illnesses, compared to healthy humans, such as the radio tracer is suitable?

This is a prospective multicenter study based on the validation of diagnostic criteria and predictive factors of treatment efficacy for renal artery stenosis in renal artery dysplasia. This is considered as a rare disease and patients are usually treated in specialized centers involved in a national network. Marseille is a center specialized in FMD and a member of the network that is very active across the country. In order to rapidly recruit patients the investigators propose a multicenter study. All patients included will benefit from an invasive angiography with trans stenotic gradient assessment at rest. In case of bilateral stenosis the investigators will randomly omit data from one side and consider the data from the contralateral artery for further analysis, to avoid statistical interdependency. Patients who require angioplasty and who have unilateral stenosis (unilateral FMD lesion or bilateral but with one non significant stenosis based on duplex ultrasound European recommendations for atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis) will be included in the second part of the study. These patients will in addition benefit from a trans stenotic pressure assessment under vasodilation and intravascular renal artery ultrasound. Patients with severe bilateral renal artery stenosis will not be included in the analysis to assess predictive criteria for treatment efficacy on hypertension, treatment of these patients will followed the current best clinical practice. These patients will be followed during 6 to 8 month to assess potential complication of the pressure assessment renal artery stenosis, but their data will be included to assess the value of FFR and IVUS to guide the procedure. Patients with unilateral stenosis will be followed up 6 month after angioplasty in order to assess hypertension and to look for potential complications.

Non-steroidal Anti-inflammation Drugs can effectively reduce the lower urinary tract symptoms from benign prostatic hyperplasia

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an experimental 20% betulinic acid ointment (BA ointment) as a treatment for dysplastic nevi with the potential to transform into melanoma.

The purpose of the study is to learn whether people who are experiencing an MCD (multicentric Castleman's Disease) flare will improve after taking valganciclovir. MCD is a type of inflammatory disease associated with Human Herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8). Valganciclovir is FDA approved for treating a different type of Human Herpesvirus, but not approved for the treatment of HHV-8. It is therefore considered experimental in this study.

Premature infants are at risk for developing bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). L-citrulline may decrease that risk, but we do not know the safety or dose of this drug for use in premature babies. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and optimal dose of intravenous L-citrulline in premature infants.

To determine the efficacy and safety of intravaginal fluorouracil administered as prophylaxis in HIV-infected women who have received standard ablative therapy (surgery) for high-grade cervical dysplasia (pre-cancer of the cervix; cervical intraepithelial neoplasia). To correlate time to recurrence of cervical dysplasia with T-cell function. Women with HIV infection are at greater risk for cervical dysplasia. Because of the likelihood that untreated or recurrent cervical dysplasia may progress to invasive cancer, there is an urgent need to develop appropriate therapies.

To conduct a three-armed trial assessing the effect of soy phytoestrogens on menopausal complaints, plasma lipids and lipoproteins, vaginal bleeding and endometrial proliferation, and health related quality of life.

Prospective clinical study that analyzes the efficacy of colonoscopy assisted by an artificial intelligence system (DiscoveryTM) compared to virtual chromoendoscopy with iSCAN in the detection of colon dysplasia in patients with long-standing Ulcerative Colitis.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the prostatic diffusion in significant concentration of ertapenem achieved after a pre-operative single administration.
