Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

This Study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary therapeutic efficacy of oral administrations of CDZ173 in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome.

This study is to treat adult patients with hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) Type 1. Out of every three participants, two will receive terlipressin and one will receive placebo. Assignments will be made randomly.

Presence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its relation with insulin resistance, obesity, dyslipidemia, systemic inflammation and cardiovascular disease is of great concern. The study of certain adipokines such as adiponectin has demonstrated an inverse association with insulin resistance, especially in Latin population lower levels of adiponectin have been observed compared to other ethnic groups. It appears to be an important molecule that is involved in limiting the pathogenesis of obesity-linked disorders and may have potential benefits as a marker to evaluate the effect of possible interventions on the MetS components and its complications. Metformin is treatment of choice in patients with MetS, due to its low cost and pharmacological comparable effects with thiazolidinediones (pioglitazone), it decreases hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, free fatty acids and triglycerides, it produces as well, a moderate weight loss, improves lipid profile and delays the appearance of diabetes mellitus in subjects with an abnormal fasting glucose. A second choice to lower the risks would be the addition of a fiber like inulin, a prebiotic, since it has demonstrated metabolic benefits on lipid and carbohydrates metabolism by several mechanisms proposed such as induction of lipogenic enzymes by glucose, production of short-chained fatty acids, glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and growth of Bifidobacterium. A good natural source of inulin is the agave. It is expected that the combination of metformin plus agave inulin will produce a beneficial impact through pharmacological synergism and that will produce changes in the pathophysiology of MetS.

KRN23 is a fully human immunoglobulin monoclonal antibody (mAb) that binds to and inhibits the activity of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), leading to an increase in serum phosphorus levels. There are multiple disorders that result in unusually high circulating levels of FGF23, which in turn result in renal phosphate wasting and reduced levels of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D (1,25[OH]2D). Across these disorders the clinical symptoms are similar and often include osteomalacia (and, in children, rickets), muscle weakness, fatigue, bone pain, and fractures. KRN23 has been studied in one of these disorders, X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). In single- and repeat-dose clinical studies in subjects with XLH, subcutaneous (SC) administration of KRN23 consistently increased and sustained serum phosphorus levels and tubular reabsorption of phosphate (TRP) without a major impact on urine calcium levels or vitamin D metabolism. Positive results were also observed in a nonclinical pharmacology model of XLH. It is hypothesized that KRN23 may provide clinical benefit in this patient due to the common underlying feature in this patient and in patients with XLH - abnormally elevated FGF23 in the context of low age -adjusted serum phosphorous levels. The primary objective is to study the effect of KRN23 treatment on normalizing age-adjusted fasting serum phosphorous levels in a single pediatric patient with Epidermal Nevus Syndrome associated hypophosphatemic rickets.

This is a Phase 2A, single dose, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of a low-dose, 40-minute infusion into the veins (intravenous infusion or "IV") of ketamine in children with ADNP syndrome (Activity-Dependent Neuroprotective Protein). The study team will enroll 10 participants, ages 5 to 12, at Mount Sinai. The study participation is expected to last 4 weeks and will include 5 scheduled clinic visits in order to complete safety monitoring, clinical assessments, and biomarker collection. At the conclusion of this study, the study team expects to demonstrate the safety and tolerability of low-dose ketamine in children with ADNP syndrome. Additionally, the study team anticipates identifying meaningful signals of efficacy in clinical outcome measures using RNA and DNA sequencing to analyze ADNP protein expression and DNA methylation profiles, a natural process by which methyl groups are added to the DNA to change its activity, in order to assess sensitivity to change with low-dose ketamine treatment and inform future phase 3 studies. Ketamine is not currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat this syndrome, but it is approved for use in children in other situations, for example in anesthesia.

Deep gluteal syndrome describes the presence of pain in the buttock caused from non-discogenic and extrapelvic entrapment of the sciatic nerve. The Graston Technique (GT) is a kind of manual therapy technique known as soft-tissue instrument-assisted mobilization. Instruments help to perform massage/scraping of the skin and miyofascia gently. The aim of this study is to investigate additive effect of GT applied to the lateral and posterior fascia to the exercise program in patients with deep gluteal syndrome on pain and disability.

The Obstructive Sleep Apnea is characterized by obstruction of the upper airway during sleep (for at least 10 sec), with repeated breathing pauses, accompanied by oxygen desaturation in the blood and by sleep interruption with repeated arousals. The investigators hypothesized that good sleep hygiene, the execution of respiratory rehabilitation exercises, with specific myofascial exercises on the muscles that are compromised in the Obstructive Sleep Apnea, can improve the patient's clinical outcome and quality of life. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of respiratory rehabilitation with myo-functional exercises in mild obstructive sleep.

The aim of this study is to assess the effects of radial shock wave therapy in the treatment of temporomandibular joint syndrome. For this objective, subjects recruited will be allocated in an experimental group or a placebo group. Both groups will receive one manual therapy and radial shock waves therapy (real for experimental group, a sham device for placebo group) session per week along one month. Pain, neck function and quality of life measured will be performed before the intervention, after the last treatment and at one month follow-up.

This is a multicenter, open-label Phase 1 study of orally administered CB-5339 in participants with R/R AML or participants with R/R intermediate- to high-risk MDS.

The purpose of this study is to understand if it is safe and useful to perform SGB (Stellate Ganglion Block) in patients who have severe lung injury Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) due to COVID-19 infection.
