There are about 2700 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Bulgaria. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
To evaluate fondaparinux 2.5mg subcutaneously once daily for 45 days in the treatment of acute (recent) superficial thrombophlebitis.
This 2 arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of intermittent treatment with PEGASYS in HBeAg negative patients with chronic hepatitis B who have demonstrated virological and biochemical response after treatment with interferon alfa. After 48 weeks therapy with interferon alfa, and 24 weeks treatment-free follow-up, eligible patients will be randomized into the PEGASYS or the observational group. Those in the PEGASYS group will receive 4 therapeutic cycles of long term intermittent treatment with PEGASYS (135 micrograms sc weekly for 12 weeks, followed by a treatment-free period of 12 weeks) and those in the observational arm will receive no specific antiviral treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years, and the target sample size is 100 individuals.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of esomeprazole 20 or 40 mg once daily versus placebo on the occurrence of peptic ulcers during 26 weeks in subjects on continuous low-dose acetylsalicylic acid.
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this research is to compare the efficacy and safety of treatment with NPH insulin and insulin detemir. You will be treated with either insulin detemir or NPH insulin once or twice daily as basal insulin. Additionally you will receive insulin aspart as bolus insulin
The purpose of this study was to determine the dose ranges of peginesatide administered intravenously or subcutaneously that maintained hemoglobin in participants on dialysis whose hemoglobin values were stable on epoetin (alfa or beta).
This is a Phase III trial designed to demonstrate that casopitant when added to dexamethasone and ondansetron is more effective in the prevention of vomiting then dexamethasone and ondansetron alone, in patients who receive a cisplatin-based highly emetogenic chemotherapy.
To demonstrate a dose response for 1 mg, 5 mg and 20 mg TID oral sildenafil for the treatment of subjects with PAH.
The study will evaluate the blood pressure lowering effects of two different dosages of the combination of olmesartan and hydrochlorothiazide in patients with moderate or severe high blood pressure.
This single arm study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of MabThera maintenance therapy following a MabThera-containing induction regimen in first line or relapsed patients with follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. All patients will receive MabThera 375mg/m2 body surface area, as an intravenous infusion, every 8 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
Rosiglitazone (RSG) has been tested and is approved as a treatment for type II diabetes mellitus, a disease that occurs when the body ineffectively uses glucose. RSG XR, the investigational drug, is an extended-release form of RSG. This study tests whether RSG XR safely provides benefit to people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD). RSG XR is a new approach to AD therapy and this study tests whether one's genes alter the effectiveness of RSG XR. Glucose is used by cells to make energy that they need to live. Changes in the ability of cells to use of glucose can lead to diseases like diabetes. Glucose levels may be lower in the brains of AD patients, and their brain cells may also use glucose less well than in unaffected people. The proper function of brain cells may be critical to memory and thought. If brain cells use glucose poorly, this might impact AD. Drugs that help brain cells properly use glucose may help a person maintain normal memory and thinking. Data suggesting that RSG may help AD patients was first seen in a small study at the Univ. of Washington and then from a larger international GSK study. In the first study, those receiving RSG once daily for 6 months scored better on 3 tests of memory and thought than those who did not receive RSG. In the GSK study, those that benefited most from therapy with RSG XR had a specific genetic pattern. They lacked the gene that caused them to produce apolipoprotein E e4 (APOE e4). Subjects who have the APOE e4 gene may have two copies, one from each parent, or they may have only one APOE e4 gene meaning that they inherited either the APOE e2 or APOE e3 version of the gene from one parent. Subjects with one copy of the APOE e4 gene remained fairly stable while those with two copies of APOE e4 continued to worsen during the 6-month treatment. This study will directly test the effect of RSG XR on people who either have or lack the APOE e4 gene.
