A Registry Study to Evaluate the Survival and Long-Term Safety of Subjects Who Previously Received Talimogene Laherparepvec in Amgen or BioVEX-Sponsored Clinical Trials
This multicenter, open-label, phase 3 extension study will investigate the safety and efficacy of rVIII-SingleChain for prophylaxis and on-demand treatment of bleeding episodes in at least 200 previously treated patients (PTPs) with severe congenital hemophilia A and previous exposure to FVIII products who achieve at least 100 exposure days (EDs) to rVIII-SingleChain in this study, as well as in previously untreated patients (PUPs) with no previous exposure to any FVIII product who achieve at least 50 EDs to rVIII-SingleChain in this study. A substudy (open to both PTPs and PUPs) will investigate the use of rVIII-SingleChain in surgery. A substudy (open to PUPs who develop an inhibitor to rVIII-SingleChain) will investigate the use of rVIII-SingleChain in immune tolerance induction (ITI) therapy.
The purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the performance and safety of the HeartMate 3 Left Ventricular Assist System (HM3 LVAS) To support obtaining CE Mark for the HM3 LVAS in Europe, a multi-center clinical study will be conducted in multiple countries. The clinical study will be conducted in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki, ICH/GCP and EN ISO 14155:2011 Requirements for Clinical Investigations and in accordance with country-specific requirements, under one clinical study protocol. This study will evaluate the performance of the HM3 LVAS, side effects and undesirable conditions within acceptable risks and weigh them against the intended performance of HM3 LVAS in accordance with Essential Requirements 2, 5 and 16 of the Active Implantable Medical Device Directive 90/385/EEC (AIMDD).
Premixed insulin-based therapy is a standard insulin treatment strategy in Austria. The widespread use of premixed insulin is explained by high acceptance by health care professionals and patients due to one single product and flexible number of injections (1-3 daily) which covers the demand in controlling fasting and postprandial glucose excursions of most patients with diabetes. However, the use of pre-mixed insulin frequently leads to a high insulin demand and consequently weight gain and an increased risk of hypoglycemia. Hence, achieve good metabolic control in these patients remains a major challenge. For those patients, the approach to treatment intensification without facing the typical risks of insulin treatment (hypoglycemia and weight increase) is of major importance. One, so far not exploited option may be the BIT-strategy: Basal insulin in combination with incretin-based therapy. Pathophysiologically basal insulin inhibits glucose production in the liver, decreases hepatic insulin resistance and improves the function of beta cells in the postprandial state by discharge of fasting insulin secretion. During further diabetes progression steadily increasing HbA1c levels - despite good fasting blood glucose control - indicate the need for additional intervention of meal-related glucose excursions. In this stage of type-2 diabetes basal insulin can be combined with prandial (short-acting) insulin or prandial GLP-1 receptor agonists. However, regarding important safety parameters: risks of hypoglycemia and weight gain in the long-term treatment GLP-1 receptor agonists are beneficial. Lixisenatide is a novel GLP-1 receptor agonist with a pronounced postprandial (PPG) effect which fits with basal insulin mode of action primarily focused on fasting blood glucose reduction. Therefore 10 patients (both gender) under treatment with premixed insulin (2-3 times daily) and HbA1c>7% will be switched to basal insulin glargine (Lantus, once daily) and GLP-1 receptor agonist Lixisenatide (Lyxumia, once daily). The investigators hypothesize that switching from a therapy based on premixed insulin to a simple, once daily administered combination of basal insulin plus a GLP-1 receptor agonist in patients with type-2 diabetes not achieving therapeutic target (HbA1c>7%) is clinically feasable in an out patient setting
The objectives of this registry are to 1. Collect clinical data on Boston Scientific's ImageReady MR Conditional Pacing Systems involving the INGEVITY lead based on observations / events 2. Gather data on actual number of MRI scans performed in the patient cohort implanted with an ImageReady system including information about scanned body parts. 3. Collect physician feedback on lead handling with the INGEVITY lead in a real-life, market-released standard of care environment using devices on intended purpose and which are authorized to bear the CE (Communauté Européenne) marking / are approved for use in the applicable area of participating centers. No additional invasive or other burdensome examinations are to be carried out other than the ones conducted by the centers per their general standard of care.
The main objective of this study is to compare a Dual Antithrombotic Therapy (DAT) regimen of 110mg dabigatran etexilate b.i.d. plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor (110mg dabigatran etexilate (DE) DAT) and 150mg dabigatran etexilate b.i.d. plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor (150mg DE-DAT) with a Triple Antithrombotic Therapy (TAT) combination of warfarin plus clopidogrel or ticagrelor plus Aspirin (ASA) <= 100mg once daily (warfarin-TAT) in patients with Atrial Fibrillation that undergo a PCI with stenting (elective or due to an Acute Coronary Syndrome). The study aims to show non-inferiority of each dose of DE-DAT when compared to Warfarin-TAT in terms of safety. Safety will be determined by comparing the rates of bleeding events, assessed using the modified International Society of Thrombosis and Haemostasis classification of Major Bleeding and Clinically Relevant Non Major Bleeding Events.
The study evaluates the efficacy of fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium bromide/vilanterol (FF/UMEC/VI) to reduce the annual rate of moderate and severe exacerbations compared with dual therapy of FF/VI or UMEC/VI in subjects with COPD. Published studies which assessed the use of an 'open' triple therapy (use of Inhaled Corticosteroid [ICS]/ Long-acting Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists [LAMA])/ Long Acting Beta-Agonist [LABA] delivered via multiple inhalers) in moderate-severe COPD patients, reported improvements in lung function, Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), hospitalization rates and rescue medication use, compared to dual therapy (ICS/LABA) or LAMA alone. These studies have also shown similar safety profile with dual or monotherapy doses for periods of up to one year. Given the clinical experience with FF, UMEC and VI, and that the associated risks with these compounds are anticipated from their known pharmacology, the potential benefit of a new therapy option in patients with moderate to severe COPD supports the further development of the closed triple combination (delivered via one inhaler). In the current study subjects meeting all inclusion/exclusion criteria will complete 2-week run-in period; 52 week treatment period and a 1-week safety follow-up period. Eligible subjects will be randomized to one of the following double-blind treatment groups FF/UMEC/VI 100 micrograms (mcg)/62.5 mcg/25 mcg once daily (QD), FF/VI 100 mcg/25 mcg QD, or UMEC/VI 62.5 mcg/25 mcg QD
The primary objective of the study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of veliparib in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel (C/P) compared to placebo plus C/P in participants with a Breast Cancer Gene 1 or 2 (BRCA1; BRCA2) mutation in Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic or locally advanced unresectable breast cancer. The secondary objectives of the study are to assess overall survival (OS), clinical benefit rate (CBR) through the end of Week 24, objective response rate (ORR) and PFS on subsequent therapy (PFS2) in participants treated with veliparib in combination with C/P versus placebo in combination with C/P.
Pectus excavatum or carinatum are the most common congenital deformations of the ventral thoracic wall. Several different surgical methods with different techniques to correct these deformations have been described. Some clinicians recommend a correction of the deformation to improve the cardiopulmonary efficiency. Other think that the correction has a more an aesthetic than a physiological benefit. The aim of our prospective study is to evaluate whether patients with PE or PC are suffering preoperatively from a cardiopulmonary limitation at rest and under physical stress and if there is a change of cardiopulmonary function after the surgical correction.
This study is conducted in Europe. The aim of this study is to estimate the relationship between pharmacodynamic and interstitial pharmacokinetic steady state following intravenous (i.v.) administration of insulin detemir and human soluble insulin.
