Standardising clinical outcomes measures for adult clinical trials in Fabry disease: A global Delphi consensus.
2021
International audience; Background: Recent years have witnessed a considerable increase in clinical trials of new investigational agents for Fabry disease (FD). Several trials investigating different agents are currently in progress; however, lack of standardisation results in challenges to interpretation and comparison. To facilitate the standardisation of investigational programs, we have developed a common framework for future clinical trials in FD.Methods and findings: A broad consensus regarding clinical outcomes and ways to measure them was obtained via the Delphi methodology. 35 FD clinical experts from 4 continents, representing 3389 FD patients, participated in 3 rounds of Delphi p…
Controlled trial for long-term low-dose erythromycin after sinus surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis
2014
Objectives/Hypothesis The efficacy of macrolides in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is still under controversy. To date, only two double-blind, placebo-controlled studies have been published with differing results. None of these studies investigated the possible benefit of macrolides in the postoperative period. We conducted an investigator-initiated clinical trial using 250-mg erythromycin once a day over a period of 3 months, beginning the administration of either erythromycin or placebo 2 weeks after a surgical intervention for CRS. Study Design Randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Methods The concentrations of eosinophilic cationic protein (ECP) and myeloperoxidase in nasal s…
