Investigation of efficacy and safety of treatment with milnacipran in the treatment of fibromyalgia syndrome.

NCT ID: NCT00435682 Completed - Healthy Clinical Trials

To Study the Peripheral Effect of Botulinum Toxin-A (Botox-A) on Experimentally Induced Cutaneous Pain in Healthy Subjects

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

This is a human trial to study the peripheral effect of therapeutic botulinum toxin (botox-A). The trial is performed on healthy normal males. The study comprises of two parallel placebo-controlled, double blinded studies. In experiment 1 intramuscular Botox will be given in corrugator (one site) and frontalis (two sites) muscles on one side and placebo to the other side. Intradermal (i.d.) capsaicin injection will be given to both sides (between the two sites of frontalis injection horizontally). Capsaicin-induced pain intensity and flare together with the area of hypersensitivity to different stimulus modalities will be measured and mapped at specific time points using different cutaneous stimuli (thermal, electrical, tactile, pressure). This will characterize which fibres and receptors are affected by Botox and will show if Botox have a unilateral effect (peripheral) or if it also affects the contralateral side (central effect). In experiment 2 intradermal Botox will be given in corrugator (one site) and frontalis (two sites) muscles on one side and placebo to the other side. I.d. capsaicin injection will be given to both sides (between the two sites of frontalis injection horizontally). Capsaicin-induced pain intensity and flare together with the area of hypersensitivity to different stimulus modalities will be measured and mapped at specific time points using different cutaneous stimuli (thermal, electrical, tactile, pressure). This will characterize which fibres and receptors are affected by Botox. The effect of intradermal Botox will be compared to the results of experiment 1. The two experiments will show if the intramuscular Botox exerts its action via a leak of Botox from the muscle to the overlying skin. Antipruritic effects of Botox on histamine prick test and itch will also be assessed in parallel with the experiment 2. In this sub-experiment, 5 Units of Botox will be injected intradermally in the middle of volar forearm. The same volume of placebo will be injected into the other side. Histamine prick test will induce itch and the effect of intradermal Botox will be assessed compared to the baseline. Flare area and visual analogue scale (VAS) ratings will be measured.

NCT ID: NCT00435474 Completed - Cancer Clinical Trials

Malignant Wounds, Wound Treatment, Psycho-Social Support and Relaxation Therapy

Start date: April 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether treatment for cancer patients with malignant wounds can improve (wound healing/wound size, odor, infection, seepage, pain) through comparing the effects of two multidimensional interventions including wound treatment, psycho-social support and relaxation therapy.

NCT ID: NCT00435409 Completed - Breast Neoplasms Clinical Trials

A Study Of Sunitinib In Combination With Capecitabine Compared With Capecitabine In Patients With Breast Cancer

Start date: February 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The treatment received with sunitinib plus capecitabine could delay tumor growth longer than with treatment with capecitabine alone.

NCT ID: NCT00435266 Completed - Clinical trials for Myocardial Infarction

Remote Ischemic Preconditioning in Primary PCI

Start date: February 2007
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) is the preferred treatment in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The infarct-related artery (IRA) can be opened in more than 90% of the patients. However, STEMI patients still end up with a persistent perfusion defect of highly variable magnitude indicating that adjunctive treatment may add further protection against tissue damage. Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is an intervention by which myocardium threatened by ischemia is exposed to short and repeated sublethal ischemic episodes prior to sustained ischemia (local IPC). A systemic response with protection of more remote organs (remote IPC (rIPC)) also can be induced. We have recently found that the infarct reducing effect can be obtained by obstruction of an extremity even though the remote stimulus is initiated during sustained occlusion of a coronary artery, the so-called remote preconditioning (rPerC). The clinical perspective is now to examine if rPerC can reduce the infarct size in patients with unpredictable ischemia in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We perform a randomized study where patients en route for pPCI are allocated to either rPerC or a standard treatment to evaluate whether the tissue damage can be reduced. Effect measure will be infarct size determined by scintigraphy (final infarct size and salvage).

NCT ID: NCT00435175 Completed - Postmenopause Clinical Trials

Acute Metabolic Effects of Estradiol

Start date: June 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Estradiol promotes and maintains the typical female phenotype characterized by subcutaneous fat accumulation. There is evidence to suggest that this effect relies on the ability of estradiol to increase the amount of anti-lipolytic α2A-adrenergic receptors, but whether this requires long-term exposure to estradiol or is the result of an immediate effect is not clear. Objective: To study acute effects of a single dose (4 mg) of 17β-estradiol on regional and systemic lipolysis.

NCT ID: NCT00435019 Completed - Diabetes Clinical Trials

Comparison of NPH Insulin and Insulin Detemir in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes

Start date: February 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

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

Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to assess the prevalence and predictors of pituitary dysfunction, as well as secondary out-come in patients with traumatic brain injury or spontaneous subarachnoidal haemorrhages.
