This trial tests if a supplement called L-carnitine can help prevent kidney damage caused by the chemotherapy drug cisplatin. It may be an option for newly diagnosed cancer patients who need cisplatin treatment.
This trial tests whether taking vitamin C and coenzyme Q10 can help protect your kidneys while you receive chemotherapy with cisplatin and gemcitabine. It may reduce the risk of kidney damage from these treatments.
This study tests whether a natural supplement made from citrus plant compounds (diosmin and hesperidin) can protect your kidneys from damage caused by platinum-based chemotherapy drugs. Platinum chemotherapy is effective against many cancers but can harm kidney function over time.
This trial tests a newer medication called vonoprazan against the standard treatment pantoprazole for patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The goal is to see which one works better for controlling symptoms like heartburn and acid reflux over 8 weeks.
This trial tests whether a heartburn medication (pantoprazole) helps patients with liver cirrhosis who have had a procedure to treat enlarged veins in the esophagus or stomach. It looks at how well the medicine works when given after this procedure to prevent complications.
