NCT ID: NCT02665364 Terminated - Clinical trials for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Phase IIb Study of IFN-K in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Start date: September 23, 2015
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The safety and immunogenicity of the IFNα-Kinoid (IFN-K) have been evaluated in a phase I clinical study conducted in subjects with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Preliminary results showed acceptable safety profile and patients developped antibodies response. The principal aim of the present study is to confirm the neutralization of the interferon gene signature and the clinical efficacy of IFN-K in subjects with SLE. In addition, the immune responses and the safety elicited by IFN-K will also be evaluated.

NCT ID: NCT02662985 Completed - Psoriatic Arthritis Clinical Trials

Study of Power Doppler Ultrasound (PDUS) to Measure Response of Secukinumab Treatment in Patients With Active Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA)

PDUS
Start date: August 22, 2016
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study was designed to leverage the sensitivity of ultrasonography available in clinical practice setting to better describe the time course of response to secukinumab (150 mg and 300 mg) on joint synovitis and enthesitis in PsA patients with an inadequate response to non-biologic DMARDs. PDUS changes in joint synovitis will be assessed using the global Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT)-European League against Rheumatism (EULAR) synovitis score (GLOESS) and changes in joint enthesitis were assessed using the OMERACT enthesitis score.

Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to provide confirmatory evidence of the safety and efficacy of two Dysport® doses (600 units [U] and 800 U), compared to placebo in reducing urinary incontinence (UI) in adult subjects treated for neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) due to spinal cord injury (SCI) or multiple sclerosis (MS).

NCT ID: NCT02659189 Recruiting - Death Clinical Trials

Hospitalary Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Registry

Start date: July 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The purpose of this study is to create an institutional registry of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary disease through a prospective survey based on epidemiological data, risk factors, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, monitoring and survival.

NCT ID: NCT02657434 Completed - Clinical trials for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

A Study of Atezolizumab in Combination With Carboplatin or Cisplatin + Pemetrexed Compared With Carboplatin or Cisplatin + Pemetrexed in Participants Who Are Chemotherapy-Naive and Have Stage IV Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (IMpower 132)

Start date: April 30, 2016
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized, Phase III, multicenter, open-label study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab in combination with cisplatin or carboplatin + pemetrexed compared with treatment with cisplatin or carboplatin + pemetrexed in participants who are chemotherapy-naive and have Stage IV non-squamous NSCLC. Eligible participants will be randomized by a 1:1 ratio into 2 groups: Arm A (Atezolizumab + Carboplatin or Cisplatin + Pemetrexed) and Arm B (Carboplatin or Cisplatin + Pemetrexed). The study will be conducted in two phases: Induction Phase and Maintenance Phase.

NCT ID: NCT02657356 Terminated - Clinical trials for Connective Tissue Disease-Associated Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Bardoxolone Methyl in Patients With Connective Tissue Disease-associated Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension - CATALYST

Start date: October 4, 2016
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study assesses the safety and efficacy of bardoxolone methyl relative to placebo in patients with connective tissue disease-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension to determine the recommended dose range and evaluate the change from baseline in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) following 24 weeks of study participation.

NCT ID: NCT02654145 Completed - Asthma Clinical Trials

Omalizumab to Mepolizumab Switch Study in Severe Eosinophilic Asthma Patients

Start date: March 17, 2016
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Mepolizumab is an anti-interleukin-5 ( IL-5) monoclonal antibody that neutralizes IL-5 and reduces eosinophil counts in both sputum and blood. Omalizumab an anti-immunoglobulin E (IgE) monoclonal antibody (mAb) is effective in the treatment of moderate to severe allergic asthma. The aim of this study is to investigate whether subjects not optimally controlled on their current omalizumab treatment, who are eligible for therapy with mepolizumab can be effectively and safely switched to treatment with mepolizumab to improve asthma control. The study will provide data on the efficacy, safety, immunogenicity, and tolerability of mepolizumab when switched directly from omalizumab without any wash-out. The learnings from this study may help guide physicians when substituting one biologic with another for the treatment of patients with severe eosinophilic asthma. The study will be a multi-centre, open-label single arm trial. Patients with severe eosinophilic asthma who are receiving omalizumab, but are not optimally controlled will be eligible to participate. Subjects will remain on their current maintenance therapy including omalizumab throughout the run-in period for a minimum of one week and up to 4 weeks. At Visit 2 (week 0) subjects will discontinue their omalizumab treatment and be switched to mepolizumab 100 mg subcutaneous (SC) every 4 weeks for 28 weeks. The treatment period is 32 weeks, including an Exit Visit/Early Withdrawal Visit, 4 weeks following the subject's last dose of mepolizumab.

NCT ID: NCT02652884 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Transient Hypoparathyroidism

Steroids in the Postoperative Transient Hypoparathyroidism Total Thyroidectomy

Corthyroid
Start date: January 2016
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The incidence of thyroid cancer (TC) has increased exponentially worldwide. The increase in diagnosed cases brings about an increase in the number of surgeries performed on the thyroid gland, especially total thyroidectomy (TT), given that at present is still the gold standard of treatment. Transient postoperative hypoparathyroidism (HPT) is one of the most frequent complications, with an incidence of between 10 and 46% according to different sources. HPT involves longer hospital stay, serial measurements of blood glucose, treatment with calcium and vitamin D (with potential risk of hypercalcemia) and therefore an increase in terms of the costs of the health system. While the investigators know the analgesic, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and anti emetic of corticosteroids in thyroid surgery, the literature available to date is discordant in the use of steroid and its interaction with the HPT making clear the need for randomized clinical trials specific to analyze these variables more accurately. As inflammation and edema constitute a proposed surgical manipulation in the pathogenesis of HPT component, investigators decided t conduct a prospective randomized, triple-blind, in order to assess the potential benefits of the most common postoperative complication reported in TT. Our primary objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of single-dose corticosteroids deposit immediately postintubation in preventing the development of transient hypoparathyroidism (PTH, serum calcium and symptoms) in patients after TT.
