It is our primary hypothesis that pretreatment with arformoterol will provide superior protection against EIB in children with mild-moderate asthma compared to placebo added to the current asthma regimen. Our secondary hypothesis is that nebulized arformoterol has comparable protection against EIB compared to inhaled formoterol by dry powder inhaler.
This is a two-part study in subjects with hematologic malignancies designed to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of GSK690693 (Part 1). Part 2 is designed to determine the efficacy of GSK690693 in a subset of subjects with hematologic malignancies.
This will be a single institution non-randomized phase I/II trial for patients with malignant mesothelioma stage II and above, who have not received prior chemotherapy for their disease. The purpose of this phase is to select a dose of VEGF-AS (antiangiogenesis drug)to be given with standard doses of pemetrexed followed by cisplatin on day 1 of a 21-day cycle.
This study is intended to provide data to verify safe delivery of a staple previously intended for use in open surgical procedures. A newly modified delivery system will provide endovascular access for implantation of a staple during endovascular graft procedures.
Tetracaine gel 4% is a topical anaesthetic gel commonly used in the UK that contains 40 mg of tetracaine base per gram. Adequate anaesthesia can usually be achieved following a 30 minute application time for venopuncture and a 45 minute application time for venous cannulation. The hypothesis is that Rapydan medicated plaster is more effective than tetracaine gel in preventing venous cannulation related pain when applied for the recommended treatment durations of 30 minutes and 45 minutes respectively.
The purpose of this study is to investigate an intervention to prevent complications after pancreas surgery. The goal is to determine if placing a stent into the pancreatic duct before surgery will decrease or prevent leaking from the pancreatic duct after surgery. Leaks are common after pancreas surgery and can result in serious problems and post-operative pain. The study will compare two groups. One group will have the stent before surgery, and the other group will have standard pancreas surgery, no endoscopy, and no stent.
Primary Objective: To compare added metformin and/or added simvastatin versus no intervention in reducing or eliminating increased cardiovascular risk (as estimated by elevation in non-HDL cholesterol levels) during the treatment of schizophrenia with olanzapine. Secondary Objective(s): To compare added metformin and/or added simvastatin versus no intervention in reducing or eliminating increased cardiovascular risk (as estimated by elevation in triglyceride levels) during the treatment of schizophrenia with olanzapine. To compare added metformin and/or added simvastatin versus no intervention in reducing or eliminating increased cardiovascular risk (as estimated by C-reactive protein levels) during the treatment of schizophrenia with olanzapine
The purpose of this study is to compare postprandial distress syndrome and epigastric pain syndrome in demographics psychological features, infection of Helicobacter pylori, gastric emptying and therapeutic response to lansoprazole.
Vaginal prolapse is a common condition that is treated with surgical correction. Recently surgeons have been using mesh to augment the repair of vaginal prolapse. Common complications of this surgery include vaginal pain, pain during sex, infection or erosion of the mesh in the vagina. There are different ways to close the vaginal wall over the mesh used in these procedures. Currently, there is no accepted standard method of closing the vaginal wall. The purpose of this study is to find out the best way to close the surgical wound in the vagina. We will compare interrupted closure (separate stitches) to continuous closure (one long, running stitch). We hope to show in our study that one method of closure is better than the other.
This study looks to continue the study of anti-vegf therapy in patients with macular edema, and compare it to an anti-inflammatory therapy and a combined Anti-vegf and anti-inflammatory.
