Active clinical trials for "Malnutrition"

The objective of this study was to compare the rate and extent of absorption of Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Ltd, clopidogrel and Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, USA Plavix®, clopidogrel 75 mg tablet under fed condition.

The purpose of this study is to compare the rate and extent of absorption of terbinafine hydrochloride 250 mg tablets versus Lamisil® 250 mg tablets administered as 1 x 250 mg tablet under fed conditions.

This single-center, randomized, open-label trial will compare the safety of MTT delivered by rectal catheter enema in participants 12-60 months of age with malnutrition (moderate acute malnutrition [MAM] or severe acute malnutrition [SAM]) who are in the rehabilitative phase of treatment and have failed to respond to at least 4 weeks of standard therapy. Participants must meet inclusion criteria, no exclusion criteria prior to randomization. Participants will then be randomized in a 1:1 ratio at each site to 1 of 2 treatment groups: MTT by rectal catheter enema: 10mL/kg (maximum 150mL, +/- 5ml) of healthy donor human intestinal microbiota will be infused. Standard of care treatment for malnutrition as prescribed by local and national Department of Health Guidelines Participants will be evaluated through 56 days (±3) after randomization for primary outcomes (safety) as well as secondary outcomes (nutritional, clinical and microbiological response). Participant blood and urine samples will be collected at enrollment and day 56. Participant stool samples will be collected at enrollment and through days 3, 7, 21 and 56, thereafter, 3 months, 4 months, and 6 months. A caregiver stool sample will be collected at enrollment and day 56. Samples will be used for microbiome determination and other exploratory microbiological endpoints. An aliquot of donor stool will also be stored for microbiome determination and other exploratory microbiological endpoints and assessment of newly acquired infectious agents.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of long-term addition of SmofKabiven® E to normal oral nutrition after routine dietary counseling as compared to standard of care nutrition in which oral nutrition is the primary nutritional support. It takes place in lung cancer patients under chemo- and/or immunotherapy. Efficacy will be determined primarily by calculating the change of patient's body weight from before start of study treatment to end of treatment, and comparing this change between both treatment groups.

At hospital, short term actions are used (adaptation of meals, oral supplementation…) to fight malnutrition. Oral supplementation can have a positive impact on weight gain. But actions should continue at home, particularly to maintain autonomy for elderly. The hypothesis is that practical workshop about enrichment and interest of foods can help malnourished patients to change their eating habits. The main goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of this workshop on improving nutritional status, measured by Mini Nutritional Assessment

The present study aims to evaluate the use of oral nutritional supplementation in persons with some clinical conditions presenting malnutrition in some extent.

RATIONALE: Cyproheptadine hydrochloride may help improve appetite and lessen weight loss caused by cancer or cancer treatment. It is not yet known whether cyproheptadine hydrochloride is more effective with or without nutritional supplementation in improving weight and quality of life of young patients with weight loss caused by cancer or cancer treatment. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying cyproheptadine hydrochloride to see how well it works when given together with or without nutritional supplementation in treating young patients with weight loss caused by cancer or cancer treatment.

Evaluate the safety and efficacy of Smoflipid compared to standard of care lipid emulsion Intralipid 20% administered via a central vein in pediatric patients 3 months to 16 years of age who require parenteral nutrition for at least 90 days and up to 1 year.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate if eating a high fat meal versus not eating any food affects how the study drug (Nikkomycin Z) is absorbed into the body. The second purpose is to gain further information about the safety of Nikkomycin Z in healthy adults.

The aim of the project is to study the influence of biostimulate crops on a healthy population in order to assess influence on hematological parameters and specific metabolism (glucose, lipid, iron, bone) and gut and lipid hormones. Secondary outcome will be to find out micronutrient presence in urine and serum. The use of biostimulation in modern agriculture has rapidly expanded in recent years, owing to their beneficial effects on crop yield and product quality, which have come under the scope of intensive research.
