The study investigators are interested in learning more about how drugs, that are given to children by their health care provider, act in the bodies of children and young adults in hopes to find the most safe and effective dose for children. The primary objective of this study is to …

Kawasaki disease (KD) is the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children in the developed world. Despite available treatment, 25% of children in San Diego County appropriately treated for KD develop coronary artery abnormalities that may lead to complications later in life, including heart attack. Although the investigators can …

This is a multicenter, open-label, blind-endpoints, randomized controlled trial at more than 10 hospitals in China. The investigators enrolled KD children diagnosed within 10 days of onset. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the control group (receiving 2g/kg IVIG and 30 mg/kg aspirin) or the intervention …

All participants will be examined in Medical University Warsaw Children's Hospital. Children with history of KD will be recruited from 2 paediatric hospitals in Warsaw and via advertisement by Polish support group for parents of children with KD in social media. Diagnosis of KD will be verified according to current …

Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute self-limited vasculitis and occurs almost exclusively in childhood. It predominantly affects medium-sized arteries, most commonly the coronary arteries. Although the use of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) has obviously decreased the incidence of coronary arteries (CA) abnormalities, still a part of KD children occur CA abnormalities, …

This is a 3-year (2.75-years of enrollment), Phase III, two-arm, randomized, multi-center, superiority treatment study to compare infliximab to a second intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) infusion for treatment of persistent or recrudescent fever in children with KD who fail to become afebrile after the first IVIG infusion. Specific aim 1 will …

This research study attempts to reveal whether coronary artery dilation in patients with Kawasaki disease refractory to standard therapy could be prevented using a matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor: doxycycline. Hypothesis The investigators hypothesize that oral administration of doxycycline for two weeks during the acute phase of Kawasaki disease (KD) effectively blocks …

Background: Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute febrile systemic vasculitis most commonly seen in children under the age of 5 years old. High-dose aspirin is often administered, but the duration of such treatment varies. Many centers reduce the aspirin dose once the patient is afebrile, even before treating said patient …

we will conduct a single-center, single-group prospective study with safety and imaging endpoints. A total of 10 KD children or young adults with indication of revascularization are enrolled, and BVS will be implanted for stenotic or occluded lesions. QCA and optical coherence tomography (OCT) are used to evaluate the baseline …
