NCT ID: NCT00861237 Terminated - Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trials

Homeopathy for Prevention of Atrial Fibrillation After Aortocoronary Bypass Surgery

Start date: July 2008
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

After heart surgery, about 30% of patients suffer from atrial fibrillation. Patients are randomized into two groups receiving either potentized Strychnos Nux vomica or placebo under double blind conditions. Postoperatively, ECGs are done to monitor cardiac rhythm.

NCT ID: NCT00858364 Terminated - Cancer Clinical Trials

Anemia Treatment for Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Patients Receiving Chemotherapy

Start date: July 17, 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a study in patients with chemotherapy induced anemia receiving multi-cycle chemotherapy for the treatment of stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate that overall survival (OS) is not worse in participants on darbepoetin alfa treated to a hemoglobin ceiling of 12.0 g/dL compared to participants treated with placebo.

NCT ID: NCT00857181 Terminated - Liver Cirrhosis Clinical Trials

Cytokines and the Risk of Infection in Liver Cirrhosis

CLC-2009
Start date: March 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The aim of this study is to test whether the oscillation of cytokine concentrations in serum is able to predict the development of infection in patients with liver cirrhosis.

NCT ID: NCT00849667 Terminated - Ovarian Cancer Clinical Trials

Efficacy and Safety of Farletuzumab (MORAb-003) in Combination With Carboplatin and Taxane in Participants With Platinum-sensitive Ovarian Cancer in First Relapse

Start date: April 16, 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This research is being done to find out if Carboplatin and Taxane works better alone or when given with an experimental drug called MORAb-003(farletuzumab) in subjects with first platinum sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer.

NCT ID: NCT00833768 Terminated - Clinical trials for Chronic Kidney Disease

A Randomised, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Sevelamer Carbonate Tablets Dosed Three Times a Day in Hyperphosphataemic Chronic Kidney Disease Patients Not on Dialysis

ASPIRE
Start date: January 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Approximately 207 hyperphosphatemic CKD patients not on dialysis will be entered into this study at approximately 50 sites within approximately 9 European countries. The purpose of this study is to determine if sevelamer carbonate tablets dosed three times a day (TID) is a safe and effective treatment for the control of serum phosphorous levels in hyperphosphatemic CKD patients not on dialysis. Total length of participation is approximately 24 weeks.

NCT ID: NCT00832507 Terminated - Clinical trials for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Study of Cicletanine for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)

Start date: January 2009
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, dose-ranging study will compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of cicletanine hydrochloride (HCl) to placebo in subjects with PAH. Study drug will be administered alone, or on the background of stable PAH therapy. The study will consist of 3 periods: a screening period, a 12-week placebo-controlled treatment period, and a long-term, blinded extension period.

NCT ID: NCT00831441 Terminated - Clinical trials for Acute Coronary Syndrome

Phase III Acute Coronary Syndrome

APPRAISE-2
Start date: March 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine if apixaban is superior to placebo for preventing cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke in subjects with a recent acute coronary syndrome

NCT ID: NCT00827008 Terminated - Subjective Tinnitus Clinical Trials

Open-Label, Long-Term Treatment Study, to Assess the Long-Term Safety and Tolerability and Efficacy of Neramexane in Patients With Subjective Tinnitus

OLLTT
Start date: January 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to investigate the long-term safety and tolerability and efficacy of neramexane mesylate in the long-term treatment of subjective tinnitus after a completed double-blind randomized placebo controlled study

NCT ID: NCT00822159 Terminated - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

Influence of Bone Strength Measured by DensiProbe on Bone Related Fixation Failure

Densiprobe
Start date: November 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Hip fractures mostly occur in elderly people with low bone strength. Bone strength is determined by bone mineral density (BMD), bone turnover, microarchitectural and geometrical properties of the bone. Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the standard technique to measure BMD. However, BMD just provides information regarding the quantity of mineral in bone, which is only one component of bone strength. To date there is no reliable method to assess bone strength in vivo. Therefore, a method to assess bone strength beyond BMD would provide additional information regarding the patients' risk of bone related fixation failure after fracture fixation. DensiProbe is a new diagnostic device that was developed for intra-operative assessment of mechanical stability of the bone in the proximal femur. It consists of a drill bit like tool and an electronic system to measure the peak torque to break-away of trabecular bone in the femoral head of patients undergoing DHS surgical treatment. In a cadaver study comparing bone mineral density measured by quantitative computed tomography with bone strength measured by DensiProbe a high correlation between these two parameters could be shown. In a clinical pilot study a significant correlation between DensiProbe measurements and BMD measured by DXA at the femoral neck in patients with hip fractures could be shown. However, no perfect correlation was expected because DensiProbe measures bone strength, which is only partly caused by BMD. Bone related fixation failure, such as secondary loss of reduction, is influenced by bone strength, bone mineral density, fracture type, fracture reduction and primary positioning of the implant. The predictive value of DensiProbe measurements for secondary loss of reduction needs to be investigated. If DensiProbe turned out to be an effective screening tool for patients with low bone strength that are on higher risk of the aforementioned complications these patients may in future benefit from alternative treatment methods (e.g. augmentation techniques) in order to reduce bone related fixation failure. The primary aim of the present study is to investigate if bone strength measured by DensiProbeTM Hip (DensiProbe) is an independent factor to predict secondary loss of reduction (screw migration of 5 mm or more and / or telescoping of 10 mm or more) in patients with hip fractures after fracture fixation with DHS.
