NCT ID: NCT01275066 Completed - MPS IV A Clinical Trials

A Double-Blind Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of BMN 110 in Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (Morquio A Syndrome)

Start date: February 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This Phase 3 study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2.0 mg/kg/week BMN 110 and 2.0 mg/kg/every other week BMN 110 in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (Morquio A Syndrome). There is currently no standard accepted treatment for MPS IVA other than supportive care. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) may be a potential new treatment option for MPS IVA patients. BMN 110 is administered to MPS IVA patients by IV infusion, allowing cellular uptake by the mannose-6-phosphate receptor and transportation to the lysosomes. This enzyme uptake into the lysosomes is hypothesized to promote increased catabolism of keratan sulfate (KS) in tissue macrophages, hyaline cartilage, other connective tissues, and heart valve, and reduce the progressive accumulation of KS which is responsible for the clinical manifestations of the disorders.

NCT ID: NCT01274871 Completed - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Sensory Changes From Chest Drains

Start date: December 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Does chest drains contribute to the post thoracotomy pain syndrome

NCT ID: NCT01274858 Completed - Lung Cancer Clinical Trials

Sensory Mapping and Thermal Thresholds After Thoracic Surgery

Start date: January 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The study will investigate topography of sensory changes late after lung cancer surgery

NCT ID: NCT01274507 Completed - Asthma Clinical Trials

A Study for Disease Profiling of Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Start date: July 2010
Phase: Phase 0
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to characterize the clinical, physiologic, and molecular profiles of healthy participants, participants with mild, moderate, and severe asthma; and participants with moderate to severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

NCT ID: NCT01274312 Completed - Clinical trials for Spinal Cord Injuries

Somato-sensory Reflex Arch in Spinal Cord Injury - Effect on Colorectal Transport

Start date: September 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Spinal cord injury (SCI) usually affects young people and causes severe bowel and bladder dysfunction. Recently, the concept of a surgically created somato-sensory reflex arch for bladder dysfunction in SCI has been introduced. The concept is promising, not just for bladder but also for bowel dysfunction. However, well designed studies need to be performed before recommending the procedure to a large number of patients worldwide. In this study the investigators perform multidisciplinary studies providing necessary information about the clinical outcome of the somato-sensory reflex arch in adult SCI patients. The hypothesis is as follows: 1. Somato-sensory reflex arch increases colorectal transport between defecations 2. Somato-sensory reflex arch improves colorectal emptying at defecation

NCT ID: NCT01274052 Completed - Clinical trials for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

Study of Postprandial Incretin Response in Women With Gestational Diabetes

Start date: March 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The researchers investigated nineteen pregnant women in third trimester and again postpartum. At the experimental days we performed a mealtest and drew blood for analyses of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), insulin, C-peptide and glucagon. The researchers aimed to investigate whether women with gestational diabetes mellitus exhibit decreased postprandial GLP-1 responses, and if so, whether this deficiency ceases following delivery when normal glucose tolerance is reestablished.

NCT ID: NCT01273038 Completed - Colostomy Clinical Trials

Clinical Investigation for New Filter to Ostomy Bags

Start date: January 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the current clinical investigation is to evaluate a new filter.

NCT ID: NCT01272869 Completed - Ileostomy - Stoma Clinical Trials

Clinical Investigation of Filter Improvement for New Filter to Ostomy Bags

Start date: January 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the current clinical investigation is to evaluate a new filter

NCT ID: NCT01272648 Completed - Hormonal Problems Clinical Trials

Rehabilitation After Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer

RePCa
Start date: February 2010
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This project will test and evaluate a rehabilitation programme, which will empower the mens health and give them resources to face at new everyday life. The project examines if a focused interdisciplinary intervention has influence of the patients generic and specified quality of life after curative radiotherapy due to prostate cancer. The intervention contains nursing consultation with information about late side effects, an individual plan and counselling in toilet habits, smoking cessation, weight control and psychological problems after treatment. Furthermore the patients are having physiotherapy with pelvic floor examinations. The nurse can refer to other collaborators.

NCT ID: NCT01272466 Completed - Clinical trials for Relapsed Multiple Myeloma

Vaccination With Peptides From Anti-apoptotic Proteins in Relapsed Multiple Myeloma

Start date: February 2010
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Anti-apoptotic proteins from the Bcl-2 family are known to play a key role in oncogenesis and are overexpressed in myeloma cells. Studies have shown that dendritic cells exposed to proteasome inhibition present exogene antigens better than unexposed dendritic cells. Patients with relapse of multiple myeloma will be offered vaccination with peptides derived from antiapoptotic proteins from the Bcl-2 family in combination with an immunostimulatory adjuvant. The vaccination will be given in relation to treatment with the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib.
