Active clinical trials for "Proctitis"

A randomized, multi-center, double-blind, three arm placebo-controlled study in male and non-pregnant, non-lactating female subjects aged 18 years to examine the safety and efficacy of two dosing regimens of hydrocortisone acetate 90 mg suppository administered with the Sephure applicator for the treatment of ulcerative colitis of the rectum.

Radiation proctitis is a common complication after radiation therapy for pelvic tumors. The investigators found that live bifidobacterium and lactobacillus tablets combined with compound glutamine enteric-coated capsules can significantly relieve the symptoms of radiation proctitis through preliminary clinical practice, but the mechanism is unknown. Through a prospective randomized controlled study, this study intends to investigate the incidence of grade 2 or higher acute radiation proctitis in patients of locally advanced rectal cancer after radiotherapy with the combined therapy. And through various scales, next-generation sequencing methods and other methods to evaluate the clinical symptoms, colonoscopy, imaging, and changes in the species and abundance of intestinal flora before and after treatment. To further explore the related pathways and mechanisms affecting radiation proctitis.

A prospective single-center observational study to evaluate the effectiveness of a local treatment with a mixture of hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate and poloxamer 407 in patients with radiation-induced proctitis.

The goal of this interventional pilot trial is to confirm that Maastro endoluminal HDR ( High Dose Radiation) contact brachytherapy boosting is feasible and may increase the chance of functional organ sparing of the rectum in patients with rectal cancer. Participants will be treated with chemoradiotherapy and an endoluminal boost with the Maastro applicator.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and tolerability of cyclically-dosed rectal budesonide foam in participants with active ulcerative proctitis (UP) or ulcerative proctosigmoiditis (UPS).

This is a prospective, multicenter, double-blind (DB), controlled, randomized, parallel group comparison Phase 3a study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of new mesalamine suppositories (MAX-002) as compared to placebo and active medicine after 6 weeks of treatment in adults with mild to moderate ulcerative proctitis (UP).

An Investigator-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study to Establish Therapeutic Equivalence of 1000 mg Mesalamine Rectal Suppositories and Canasa® Rectal Suppositories (1000 mg Mesalamine, USP) in the Treatment of Mild to Moderate Ulcerative Proctitis will be conducted in 533 patient with a estimated duration of 18months.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of budesonide suppository for the treatment of acute ulcerative proctitis.

The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of two treatment regimens: argon plasma coagulation (APC) alone and APC in combination with sucralfate administered for chronic hemorrhagic radiation proctopathy.

Ulcerative Colitis (UC) is a life-long incurable disease with remissions and exacerbations. Inflammation confined to the rectum occurs in a quarter of patients and can be extremely hard to treat. Many medications have been tried in order to control the inflammation, but they do not always work. One of the newer medications is the immunosuppressing medication, tacrolimus that has been shown to be effective in UC when taken orally. Unfortunately, the oral use of this medication can have numerous serious side effects. In order to overcome these side effects, the use of topical rectal tacrolimus has been examined. Pilot studies in ulcerative proctitis (inflammation confined to the rectum) resistant to conventional therapies have demonstrated a clinical remission in 75% of patients and although the medication was well absorbed through the lining of the bowel, the levels in the blood were very low and no serious side effects were reported. The findings suggest that this preparation is indeed effective for inflammation in the distal bowel and that the method of administration reduces side effects. Further work, however, now needs to be undertaken to validate the original findings.
