Active clinical trials for "Inflammation"

Evaluation of the effect of a vitamin E coated high flux polysulfone dialyzer on the inflammatory state of patients' end stage renal disease and its clinical benefits in terms of anemia Objectives : To assess the benefits of a vitamin E coated polysulfone membrane on the micro-inflammatory state of chronic dialysis patients Prospective multicenter controlled and randomized study Number of patients : 120 patients (60 patients per group)

The investigator tested the efficacy of maraviroc intensification on down-regulating atherosclerotic progression in HIV infected patients with optimal viro-immunologic control and at high cardiovascular risk.

SURF-201 is being studied for the treatment of eye inflammation and pain in people who are undergoing cataract surgery. SURF-201 is an investigational drug (which means the study drug is currently being tested) in the form of a sterile eye drop. The purpose of this research study is to see how well SURF-201 works and what side effects there are, and to compare it with Vehicle (placebo). This study will involve about 80 study participants at several different research sites in the United States.

The main objective of this study is to generate diagnosis and therapeutic-decision tools through the identification of molecular causes of PIDs with autoimmunity/inflammation and the variability in disease outcome at the transcriptional level using a combination of omics signatures (transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics, metagenomics, metabolomics and lipidomics).

This Phase 3 study will evaluate APP13007 in comparison to the matching vehicle placebo in a randomized, parallel-group, double-masked fashion. The subjects will have undergone routine cataract surgery on Day 0 of the study and will be assessed the next day (Post-operative Day; POD1) after uncomplicated surgery for eligibility for randomization to study treatment. The study comprises the Main Study and the Endothelial Cell Sub-study.

The intent of this study is to determine the effect of a smartphone application used in conjunction with interproximal cleaning on localized, inflamed periodontal pockets of periodontal maintenance patients. The hypothesis to be tested is that the use of the smartphone application will decrease clinical parameters of inflammation (probing depths, bleeding on probing) as well as the pro-inflammatory biomarker (IL-1B) as determined in gingival crevicular fluid sampling.

The research objective of the UNITE Study is to assess the potential efficacy of ultrasound application to the spleen using a small wearable ultrasound system in the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in a pilot study. Specific Aims: Determine the efficacy of splenic ultrasound with a new wearable device in affecting markers of systemic inflammation in COVID-19 infection between an ultrasound group versus a control group; and Evaluate the potential efficacy of splenic ultrasound with this new wearable device in affecting clinical outcomes in COVID-19 infection in the ultrasound group compared to a control group.

Introduction: Regular exercise training improves prognosis in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). This study investigates whether the beneficial effects of exercise can be partly explained by favourable changes in haemostasis and inflammation. Methods: 150 CAD patients are randomised to a supervised long-term exercise program (3 months) or usual care. Blood samples are obtained at baseline, 1.5 months, and 3 months after randomisation. Results: The investigators will evaluate platelet turnover and aggregation, coagulation, fibrinolysis, and inflammatory markers before and after short- and long-term exercise, and the two randomised groups will be compared. Perspectives: The present study will increase our knowledge of the beneficial mechanisms underlying the effect of exercise in CAD patients, potentially paving the way for improved exercise recommendations.

The objective of the NEUTROSURGERY study is to describe the local and locoregional immuno-inflammatory activity in patients suffering from malignant sylvian ischaemic cerebral accident and treated with decompressive hemicraniectomy compared to a control population of patients to be operated on in neurosurgery for another neurosurgical pathology.

This Phase 3 study will evaluate APP13007 in comparison to the matching vehicle placebo in a randomized, parallel-group, double-masked fashion. The subjects will have undergone routine cataract surgery on Day 0 of the study and will be assessed the next day (Post-operative Day 1; POD1) after uncomplicated surgery for eligibility for randomization to study treatment.
