Active clinical trials for "Ulcer"

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of ilaprazole and omeprazole in the treatment and prevention of peptic ulcer bleeding. Patients with endoscopically diagnosed peptic ulcer bleeding were enrolled in a randomized, double-blind, parallel and positive-controlled trial. They were randomly assigned into two groups, ilaprazole and omeprazole, to be treated for up to 30 days and be seen at day 3, 4, 7, 14 and 30. The primary endpoint was the hemostasis rate (hemostatic groups with endoscopy check ) and re-bleeding rate ( bleeding groups with endoscopy check) within 72 hours. Secondary end points include effective rate of hemostasis, mean volume of blood transfusion, the length of stay and re-bleeding rate, etc.

The purpose of this phase study is to confirm the efficacy and safety by compare ilaprazole and omeprazole in the treatment and prevention of peptic ulcer bleeding. Patients with endoscopically diagnosed peptic ulcer bleeding were enrolled in a multi-center, stratified randomized, non-inferiority test, double-blind, parallel and positive-controlled trial. They were randomly assigned into two groups, ilaprazole and omeprazole, to be treated for up to 30 days. The primary endpoint was the hemostasis rate at the end of 72 hours. Secondary end points include ulcer staging changes within 72 hours, effective rate of hemostasis, hemostasis duration, average blood transfusion and rebleeding rate, etc.

This study is designed to evaluate how the body processes and removes mirikizumab. The study will also evaluate safety and disease response in pediatric participants with UC taking mirikizumab. The study will last about 52 weeks and may include up to 18 visits.

This study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled trial designed to collect patient outcome data as well as assess performance and safety of a commercially available human split thickness skin allograft with SOC dressing compared to SOC dressings alone in the treatment of Diabetic Foot Wounds.

This is a prospective, single-blinded, randomized study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CEGP003 in patients with acute peptic ulcers bleeding, compared to endoscopic epinephrine injection therapy.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of dehydrated amnion/chorion membrane (dHACM) in the treatment of patients with stage II or III pressure ulcer and decubitus ulcers

The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy (by monitoring the wound size reduction of Chronic Venous Ulcers) and safety (by monitoring adverse events) of the medicinal product to be studied after two applications on the wound surface in patients with Chronic Venous Ulcers.

All patients with a significant deficiency of skin sensitivity and reduced mobility are potentially at risk of Pressure Ulcers (PUs), in particular the persons affected by Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), also due to their frequent alteration or loss of subcutaneous skin sensitivity. Pressure sores are one of the most common and fearful complications in SCI, with a severe impact on quality of life and on care health costs. They are often the cause of lengthening the time of hospitalization, slowing down clinical and rehabilitation programs and re-hospitalization. PUs, when arisen, heal slowly and, despite the protracted conservative medical therapies, sometimes they do not come to complete healing. Sometimes plastic surgery is needed, although even after it recurrence rates remain high. Further treatments have been proposed in addition to the usual medication, however they are characterized by a certain degree of invasiveness and are often conditioned by the availability of specific and sometimes expensive equipment, as well as by the presence of highly qualified personnel. In general, there is also a lack of good quality clinical trials for assessing their effectiveness and safety and they are often not decisive, especially for severe and recalcitrant ulcers. Among alternative techniques for the healing of skin ulcers in general, the adhesive elastic bandage, also known as "kinesio taping" and already recognized for the treatment of edema, hematoma and scarring, has been proposed. However, specific protocols and published studies are not available for PUs. The Montecatone Rehabilitation Institute, that hosts the largest Spinal Unit in Italy, pays great attention to the prevention and treatment of PUs in both acute and chronic patients. The rationale for the taping positioning around PUs investigated in this study is to improve lymphatic drainage and reactivation of the superficial bloodstream by increasing interstitial spaces and reducing skin and subcutaneous compression, notoriously compromised in the areas of onset of pressure sores. The total shortage in the literature and in user manuals of taping protocols for PUs supports this preliminary, exploratory, descriptive and uncontrolled pilot study with the primary aim of verifying the safety of a taping treatment for medium/severe grade PUs, "add-on" to the usual care. The choice of the ulcer sites selected (sacral and heel) has been affected by the feasibility of tape positioning.

The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy (by monitoring the wound surface area reduction of Diabetic Foot Ulcers) and safety (by monitoring adverse events) of two doses of the allogeneic investigational medicinal product "allo-APZ2-DFU" topically administered to the wound matrix of patients with diabetic neuropathic ulcer.

The etiopathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC) is not fully understood. One of the theories of UC pathogenesis represents a pathological response of mucosal immunity to intestinal microbiota. Potential therapeutic procedure how to affect this fact is the faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). Review of the literature on FMT suggests great potential as the treatment for UC, but two prospective controlled study that has been published yet are inconsistent. The first objective of the project is to compare the administration of FMT enema with mesalazine enema for inducing remission in patients with active left-sided UC in the form of a prospective, randomized, controlled study. The second objective is to observe changes in the intestinal microbiota during and after FMT focusing on bacterial DNA sequencing to identify the bacterial species which are responsible for the effect of the FMT.
