Filter by:This study is a local, prospective, open-label, company-sponsored, non interventional, multi-center study. Patients documented must suffer from an acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis and take at least one dose of Moxifloxacin injection.The primary objective is to obtain clinical effectiveness and safety data of Moxifloxacin injection in the treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis in patients in whom Moxifloxacin was routinely prescribed. The secondary objective is to find out the possible correlation between the risk factors (sex, smoking, number of previous exacerbations, etc) and AECB, the different treatment effectiveness according to Anthonisen classification. This study will also collect the data of pathogens by sputum culture and the defervescence time of Moxifloxacin injection in treating Acute Exacerbations of Chronic Bronchitis (AECB).
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PDC-339 in the treatment of acute erosive gastritis, using placebo as the comparator.
This is a Phase I study designed to determine the MTD and assess the toxicity associated with clofarabine followed by fractionated cyclophosphamide in patients > 1 year of age or < 21 years of age with relapsed or refractory acute leukemias. There will be 25 to 35 patients enrolled. Cohorts of 3 to 6 patients each will receive escalated doses of clofarabine followed by fractionated cyclophosphamide until the MTD is reached. There will be no intra-patient dose escalation. Single-agent cyclophosphamide will be administered by 2-hour IVI on Day 0 of cycle 1. On Days 1, 2, and 3 and Days 8, 9, and 10 clofarabine will be administered by IVI 2 hours before each dose of cyclophosphamide (see the treatment schema below). A cycle is defined as 28 days.
A study to assess the safety and efficacy of moxifloxacin compared to that of amoxicillin-clavulanic acid for the treatment of subjects with acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis.
Hypothesis:Oral Voriconazole will be as effective as intravenous Amphotericin B as antifungal prophylaxis in induction of acute leukemia (ALL, AML) in pediatric patients, with less toxicity and more convenience.
This study will evaluate the overall remission rate of treatment with voreloxin Injection in patients at least 60 years of age with previously untreated AML
The purpose of the study is to compare alfuzosin GITS once daily versus placebo in achieving a successful TWOC after AUR due to BPH, among Chinese males in Hong Kong, and in delaying or avoiding a TURP.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Cyclamen europaeum extract 10 % (v/v) compared to placebo in subjects with acute sinusitis
Moxifloxacin, is being tested at approximately 60 study centres in 15 countries to determine if this drug, when taken periodically in addition to the patients normal treatment, is effective at reducing the number of flare-ups of chronic bronchitis he has. Approximately 1132 subjects will participate, and it is expected that the study will run for 2 years in order to reach that goal. The patients individual involvement in the study will be 17 months. Moxifloxacin will be compared to a placebo drug (no active ingredients). The study medication (moxifloxacin or placebo) will be taken in addition to the patients normal medication for chronic bronchitis. In addition to the first clinic visit, called a screening visit, the patient will be required to come back to the clinic for ten more study visits, every 8 weeks. At the first visit the study co-ordinator will provide him with the dates for all the visits. Over a period of 48 weeks the patient will return to the clinic on 6 occasions where he will receive the study medication which he will take for five days, in addition to his normal treatment for chronic bronchitis. After this time the patient will enter a follow up period for 24 weeks, where he will come to the clinic for assessments and continue to take his normal medication but not receive the study drug. A complete medical history will be taken at the first visit, including the patients past and current smoking habit. A breath test will be performed to assess how well his lungs are functioning. In addition, he will also be asked to provide a sputum sample for a microbiological examination to identify any bacteria present in the sample. The patient must be able to provide a sputum sample at the screening visit. If the patient meets all the inclusion / exclusion criteria for the study, he will be allocated randomly to one of the following treatment groups at the second visit.- Treatment group 1: Receives moxifloxacin orally once daily for five days.- Treatment group 2: Receives a matching placebo once daily for five days.In between each visit (four weeks after your clinic visit), the study site co-ordinator will contact the patient to check on his well being. If the patient or the doctor decides to stop the patients participation in the trial for any reason, the patient will be required to return to the clinic for a physical examination, take a breath test, provide a sputum sample (if possible) and have a blood sample taken.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of nursing care in relation to usual medical care in adult patients who demand to be visited the same day in Primary Care Teams in Catalonia, as it is suggested in other countries.
