INCB7839 is an inhibitor of the ADAM (A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease) 10 and 17 proteases. Neuronal activity regulates glioma growth through neuroligin-3 (NLGN3). ADAM 10 is the protease responsible for NLGN3 release into the tumor microenvironment and represents a promising therapeutic
Specific aims of this study :
1. To examine the influences of acute gastrointestinal hemorrhage on the serological or urinary level of novel renal biomarkers in patients with cirrhosis.
2. To investigate the ability of novel biomarkers to predict the development of acute kidney injury and the
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection remains a major co-morbidity in hemodialysis patients. The incidence and prevalence rates of HCV infection in hemodialysis patients are much higher than those in the general population, and are attributed to high rates of nosocomial HCV transmission. With regard to
Anaemia is a recalcitrant problem in global health, affecting particularly children and childbearing women in sub-Saharan Africa. Anaemia causes impaired growth and cognitive development in children, poor pregnancy outcomes including both maternal and perinatal mortality. Also, it is associated with
The treatment of extrahepatic disease manifestations of HCV has largely paralleled that of hepatic disease. Interferon was reported to have efficacy for MC even before linkage of the syndrome to HCV in 1989, and successful combination therapy with ribavirin was found to eliminate virus and lead to
Hepatitis C Virus infection is one of the main causes of chronic liver disease worldwide with current estimates of approximately 130 - 210 million individuals (according to 3% of the world population) chronically infected with the hepatitis C virus. However, hepatitis C virus infections are among
Study Population Screening: HIV infected patients with a positive anti-HCV test will be approached for screening if they are at least 18 years old, participate in the PHPT cohort study, have evidence of control of HIV replication and have a CD4 cell count ≥200 cells/mm3 if currently receiving
Co-infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) is frequent because of shared modes of viral transmission. Near 20% of HIV-infected patients are also infected with HCV, the prevalence of HCV in the HIV population varying according to the route of transmission.
Disease background:
MM is a plasma cell tumor. It accounted for an estimated 20,180 new cases of cancer and 11,170 deaths in the United States in 2010. With a prevalence of 23 per 100,000 people, MM is an orphan disease (prevalence <5:10,000). The median age at diagnosis is 60-65 years. Although MM
Despite cisplatin chemoradiation, 40-50% of women with locally advanced cervical cancer will die from their disease. The evaluation of new chemoradiation regimens have since included cisplatin to further build on its current success. In one year, Nelfinavir will be off patent and become a potential
Four million Americans have chronic hepatitis C (HCV), and 30% of HIV+ patients are co-infected with HCV. Until May 2011, the standard treatment for HCV was the combination of alpha interferon (injected weekly) and ribavirin (daily pills) (IFN/RBV) for 48 weeks in order to achieve sustained
Chronic infection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV), which affects 1-2% of adults in the United States, is a major risk factor for liver failure due to cirrhosis and/or hepatocellular carcinoma (Davis 2010). Epidemiological information suggests that the frequency of these HCV-related sequelae is
Viral hepatitis, mainly when caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV), is highly significant in the setting of infection by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) because high activity antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has a very favorable impact upon morbidity and mortality of this disease. HAART has
Cognitive and neurological dysfunction after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) is common and multi-factorial in origin. Causative factors include cerebral Embolization (1), cerebral ischemia reperfusion (2), cerebral hyperthermia after discontinuation of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) (3), and the
