Insulin Therapy for Postreperfusion Hyperglycemia
Glycemic control during liver transplantation is challenging especially after reperfusion of the liver graft. Insulin dose to treat postreperfusion hyperglycemia is retrospectively analyzed using historical data. The proposed dose then is prospectively applied to the patients to assess the adequacy of the insulin dose.
Prevention of Incisional Hernia After Renal Transplantation
Randomized clinical trial to determine the efficacy of mesh reinforcement in laparotomy closure in renal transplantation as measured by reduction in the incidence of incisional hernia at 2 years post-transplantation.
Home-based Exercise and Physical Activity Intervention After Kidney Transplantation: Impact of Exercise Intensity
This multicentre two-phased RCT aims to evaluate implementation potential, cost-effectiveness, effectiveness, and the role of exercise intensity of a home-based exercise and physical activity intervention to improve de novo kidney transplant recipients' physical fitness, cardiovascular health, gut microbiome characteristics, and health-related quality of life. The first phase of this study …
Anakinra vs Prednisone to Treat Gout Flare in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 4/5 or Renal Transplantation
Gout is secondary to urate crystal deposition after chronic elevation of serum urate level. Urate crystal deposition is responsible for acute and recurrent inflammatory flares which can be treated with colchicine, non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), corticosteroid or interleukin (IL)-1b blockade. Colchicine and NSAID are contra-indicated in patients with chronic renal …
Study to Confirm of the Safety and Tolerability of Brincidofovir in Subjects With BK Virus Infection (Viremia) After Kidney Transplantation
This is a Phase II, multicenter, open-label, randomized, standard of care (SOC) controlled, multiple ascending dose study to assess the safety and tolerability of IV Brincidofovir (BCV) in subjects with BKV infection after kidney transplantation. The study will be conducted at multiple study sites in several countries including Australia and …
Neo-adjuvant Transarterial Chemoinfusion (TAI) for Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma Beyond Milan/UCSF Criteria Who Underwent Liver Transplantation
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second commonest cause of cancer death worldwide. Liver transplantation (LT) is the best curative treatment of HCC meeting Milan/UCSF criteria. Milan (solitary tumour <5cm, or up to 3 tumours, each <3cm) and University of California San Francisco (UCSF) criteria (solitary tumour ≤6.5cm, up to 3 …
Downstaging Protocol Containing Immunotherapy for HCC Beyond the Milan Criteria Before Liver Transplantation
Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) is the most common liver malignancy and the third leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Due to the shortage of donor organs and the risk of tumor recurrence after transplantation, the restrictive Milan criteria is the standard guideline for liver transplantation (LT) in patients with HCC and …
Prospective Pilot Study for the Evaluation of Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty With Endomina® for the Treatment of Obesity in Liver Transplant Candidates
The goal of this pilot prospective interventional study is to evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) in allowing obese subjects with the need of liver transplantation to reduce their BMI in order to enter the waiting list (BMI (≥35 kg/m2). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: …
Hepatic and Systemic Hemodynamic Modeling During Liver Surgery
" Despite the medical and surgical progress of the last two decades, the selection of candidates for liver surgery remains based on old principles and insufficiently sensitive to fine-tune the gesture to patient-specific characteristics and make almost zero risks of postoperative liver failure (PLF) and death. It is therefore necessary …
Hypertonic Saline Solution to Prevent Acute Kidney Injury After Heart Transplantation
The goal of this study is to evaluate if hypertonic saline solution can prevent or attenuate acute kidney injury after heart transplantation in the early postoperative phase.
