Active clinical trials for "Peptic Ulcer"

Whether H2 receptor antagonist can prevent thienopyridine-related peptic ulcer remains unclear.

Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPI) can prevent the recurrence of peptic ulcer in clopidogrel users.

This study is a pragmatic cluster randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of a clinician-facing implementation strategy on the use of medication optimization (defined as either discontinuation of all antiplatelet therapy or initiation of and adherence to a proton pump inhibitor (PPI)) to reduce upper GI bleeding risk in patients prescribed anticoagulant-antiplatelet therapy (AAT) relative to usual care.

Carbohydrate enriched-drinks has been used as preoperative treatment up to two hours before anesthesia. These drinks are safe and are not associated to bronchial aspiration during anesthesia. The addition of protein may be beneficial for metabolic preconditioning but there is a few data in literature testing these drinks for safety. The aim of the study will be to investigate the residual gastric volume (RGV) measured during the gastroscopy with abbreviation of fast to 2h with a carbohydrate plus whey protein enriched-drink.

An open-label, multiple-dose, single-arm, phase 1 study to evaluate the drug-drug interaction and safety of Lafutidine and Irsogladine maleate in healthy adult volunteers

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether treatment with a combination capsule of Esomeprazole 40 mg and Aspirin (ASA) 325 mg is bioequivalent (i.e.has the same effect within the body) as these medications taken separately. Two different forms of esomeprazole (tablets and capsules) will be investigated.

Gastroduodenal ulcers are extremely common in the community today. Though much has been written and observed concerning how ulcers form, not much has been described in the human model concerning how these ulcers heal. As numerous patients already suffer from gastrointestinal ulcers, further clarification of ulcer healing would be valuable in the treatment and management of these patients. The goal of this study is to investigate the effects of naproxen, aspirin, celecoxib, and clopidogrel on biopsy-induced gastroduodenal lesions in order to elucidate the mechanisms of ulcer healing. This single site, single-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, one-week prospective study will examine ulcer healing through endoscopic, immunohistologic, and molecular PCR modalities.

To assess the efficacy and safety of the early administration of somatostatin in infusion during 72 hours plus 2 boluses, compared to placebo in the control of acute severe UGIB with suspicion of PUB.

This study is being done to see if a new approach to repair perforated ulcers in the stomach (holes in the stomach) or the first part of the intestine is possible. Traditionally, either open operations (large single incision) or laparoscopic operations (multiple small camera-guided incisions) have been used to repair perforated ulcers. Over the last ten years, some surgeons have used endoscopic equipment to assist them with performing the procedure. It is unknown if perforated ulcer repair can be done using an endoscope as the main instrument (a flexible tube with a video camera inserted into the stomach through your esophagus) to "patch" or plug the perforation. We will patch the perforation using a standard method which uses tissue from outside the stomach. A laparoscopic camera will also be used to assist our view. This study is intended to be a feasibility study to demonstrate the endoscopic technique can be safely performed Hypothesis: The primary outcome is successful completion of the procedure.

Patients who are genetically diagnosed with the recently reported and rare Wolfram syndrome type 2 ( WFS2) and have the degenerative and symptomatic disease including signs such as diabetes, platelet aggregation defect or visual problems will be asked to participate in this study. Knowing the pathomechanism of WFS2 with rapid cell death, after doing baseline investigations to asses the severity of their disease, the participants will be offered a chelator therapy with in addition to the antioxidant Acetylcystein, in diabetic patients an Incertin (GLP-1 ) therapy will be offered as well. The baseline investigations will be repeated after 2 months and after 5 months of therapy in order to asses the progression of the disease and to show if the chelator and anti oxidant therapy and in diabetic patients the GLP-1 therapy could stop the progression of the disease.
