Hemangioma Clinical Trials

The study objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of oral propranolol in comparison with oral nadolol in patients with IH. Patients will be randomly assigned to either propranolol or dose equivalent nadolol. The duration of the study will be 24 weeks, however, patient will be monitored for up ...

After informed consent is obtained a detailed question will be mailed to participating patients and families. This questionnaire will also be available electronically through an educational website. Data collected will include photographs of skin lesions, video images of gastrointestinal lesions, demographic data, clinical information, therapeutic interventions, glass slides of tissue ...

The purpose of this study is to characterize the PK ( Pharmacokinetics) of understudied drugs administered to children per standard of care as prescribed by their treating caregiver. This will be accomplished by the collection of biological samples during the time of drug administration per standard of care as prescribed ...

This pilot study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hemoporfin photodynamic therapy (PDT) with different light doses for port-wine stain (PWS in 7-14 years old children. The population pharmacokinetics of hemoporfin in children will be investigated as well.

If you and your child agree to participate in this study, the following will happen: The principal investigator at MCW, or her appointed representative, will review the study protocol and consent form with you and answer any questions- this can be done over the phone. If you choose to participate, ...

Pulsed dye laser is currently the standard of care treatment for Port wine stains. Researchers at University of California Irvine at Beckman Laser Institute Medical Clinic can use Photodynamic therapy, another treatment option for Port wine stains. Photodynamic therapy involves light activation of a photosensitizer (a drug that is responsive ...

Infant hemangioma(IH) is the most common benign vascular tumor of infancy with the estimated incidence varies 1% to 12%.However, in China, the incidence of infant hemangioma and related epidemiological data remains unclear. So, the investigators designed the study for the following purposes: 1, to aware the incidence of infantile hemangioma ...

Hemangiomas are frequent vertebral lesions (12% of the whole human population) but only 1% displays any clinical symptoms . The most common symptom is local pain, usually non responding for non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs. Radiation therapy usually does not result calcification or the tumor regression, but significantly reduces the pain intensity ...

Hemangiomas affect 5-10% of all children born in the United States and up to 20% of premature infants, with a higher incidence in girls. Most infantile hemangiomas (IHs) appear within a few weeks of birth, grow rapidly for months to years and eventually involute. "Benign neglect" (no treatment) is therefore ...

The researchers at University of California, Irvine and Washington University in Saint Louis are collaborating in this project and developes new multiple imaging devices call photoacoustic microscopy and optical coherence tomography imaging technologies can be use to evaluate the response of port-wine stain from Pulse Dye Laser treatment.
