Active clinical trials for "Pruritus"

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the efficacy of SARNA Sensitive Lotion in the treatment of uremic pruritus in adult hemodialysis patients in a double-blind Controlled comparative trial.

Pruritus is an essential feature for the diagnosis of atopic dermatitis and may play an important part in disease progression. Itching has a significant impact on the quality of life of AD sufferers, in particular night-time itching leading to sleep disturbance and subsequent poor daytime performance. The objective of this study is to determine whether SRD174 Cream is a safe and effective therapy for moderate to severe pruritus associated with atopic dermatitis.

The purpose of this study is to determine if Botox is effective in the treatment of an experimentally induced itch that mimics chronic itch in healthy volunteers.

Study hypothesis is that aprepitant is more effective than desloratadine in relieving pruritus caused by EGFR TKIs. Primary endpoint is the effective rate of pruritus, effective treatment defined as visual analogue scale (VAS) decrease ≥ 50% after treatment compared to baseline score. 130 NSCLC patients undertaken EGFR-TKI and suffer from moderate or severe pruritus (VAS score ≥ 4) will be enrolled in this study, and stratified (gender, VAS 4-6 or 7-10, and 2nd generation TKI or non 2nd generation) randomized (1:1) into aprepitant or desloratadine treatment. VAS investigation will be taken once a week to treatment end (4 weeks).

This is an efficacy and safety study of up to 12 weeks of desloratadine in Japanese participants with eczema/dermatitis and dermal pruritus. The primary hypothesis of this study is that the sum of the daytime and nighttime pruritus/itch scores for both the eczema/dermatitis group and the dermal pruritus group will be significantly improved at Week 2 compared to Baseline.

This will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess safety and tolerability of GSK2330672 administration in subjects with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and symptoms of pruritus. It is a double-blind, crossover study with subjects receiving placebo or GSK23306772 in random order during two 14-day treatment periods. Additionally, the study will determine GSK2330672 exposure and interactions with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). The total duration of subject participation will be 14 weeks for screening (45 days) and the treatment period. Subjects who are eligible for enrolment will participate in a 2-week placebo run-in period. Subjects will be randomized in a crossover fashion (Sequence 1 / Sequence 2) to receive placebo or GSK2330672 treatment during two consecutive 2-week study periods. Subjects will then participate in a 2-week placebo dosing follow-up period ending in final follow-up assessments. Study results will be utilized to form a benefit: risk profile for GSK2330672 in PBC that will determine plans for progression to exploratory efficacy trials

A prospective, randomized, controlled open clinic trial to evaluate the effect and safety of combination of conventional hemodialysis(HD) and hemoperfusion(HP) on middle molecules removal and complications improvement in long-term maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. There are two phases of study for each subject. Phase 1 (screening phase). During this phase, each potential subject will be evaluated to determine if he/she is eligible for the study. Phase 2 (intervention phase). Each subject will be randomly allocated to HD+HP(HA130 once per week) group ,HD+HP(HA330 once per week) group and HD group. The follow-up duration was 3 months.

The objective of this 1 week trial is to evaluate the efficacy of an over-the-counter (OTC) 1% colloidal oatmeal skin protectant cream in adults and children with mild to moderate AD.

The primary objectives of the study to evaluate the effects of two doses of nalbuphine HCl ER tablets on the change from baseline in the worst itch Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) in hemodialysis patients with moderate to severe uremic pruritus and to evaluate the safety and tolerability in the study population.

Itching is a frequent and disturbing side effect of the use of pain medication such as morphine. In the post-operative period, it can be more distressing to pediatric patients than their pain. The current first line treatment, an antihistamine (Benadryl), has a low efficacy. This treatment causes sleepiness and may be dangerous when used in combination with other drugs. Nalbuphine has analgesic properties similar to morphine as well as the ability to reverse some morphine-induced side effects, such as respiratory depression and itching. Nalbuphine has been used effectively for patients undergoing Caesarean sections. However, the effectiveness of nalbuphine in the pediatric population has not been investigated. We want to determine the efficacy of nalbuphine in the treatment of itching after morphine for postoperative pain relief. We will use a novel method to measure the effect of the treatment using an intensity scale before and after the drug, to determine the intensity difference.
