NCT ID: NCT00410085 Completed - Healthy Clinical Trials

Renal Hemodynamics and Tubular Function in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Healthy Controls

Start date: January 2005
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Nitrogen-oxide (NO) plays an important role for blood pressure regulation, renal hemodynamics, and the renal excretion of sodium. NO is synthesized from L-arginine in the vascular endothelium and have a very short half-life in plasma and is therefore very difficult to measure directly. L-mono-methyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) is an analogue to L-arginine and a competitive inhibitor of NO, and therefore can be used to study the effect of NO on the circulation. In normal subjects, infusion of L-NMMA will cause an increase in blood pressure, decreased renal plasma-flow, decreased glomerular filtration rate, and a decreased excretion of sodium. Hypothesis: Patients with obstructive sleep apnea has a decreased activity in the NO-system. This is contributing to the hypertension often seen in these patients. Decreased activity in the NO-system can be revealed by diminished fall in renal hemodynamic and sodium excretion after infusion of L-NMMA.

NCT ID: NCT00410046 Completed - Clinical trials for Ankylosing Spondylitis

Extension Study Evaluating Etanercept in Ankylosing Spondylitis

Start date: December 2006
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the health care resource utilization and work status of patients with ankylosing spondylitis undergoing treatment with etanercept by comparing study evaluations with the baseline evaluations in the ASCEND (0881A3-402)(NCT00247962) study.

NCT ID: NCT00410007 Completed - Clinical trials for Polycystic Kidney, Autosomal Dominant

The Effect of High and Low Sodium Intake on Urinary Aquaporin-2 in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease

Start date: October 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the study is to test the following hypotheses: 1. that the function and/or regulation of AQP2 and /or ENaC in the principal cells is abnormal in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. 2. if an abnormal function of the principal cells is present in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, this will become more pronounced at high and low sodium intake.

NCT ID: NCT00409903 Completed - Healthy Clinical Trials

The Effect of Eprosartan on Hormones and Kidney Function in Healthy Humans.

Start date: November 2006
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

We, the investigators at Holstebro Hospital, want to test the hypothesis that eprosartan reduces the activity of the sympathetic nervous system in healthy individuals - during baseline conditions and after activation of the sympathetic nervous system.

NCT ID: NCT00409617 Completed - Crohn's Disease Clinical Trials

Study of Adalimumab Treatment for Induction and Maintenance of Clinical Remission in Subjects With Crohn's Disease

Start date: December 2006
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of adalimumab for treatment of patients with moderate to severe Crohn's Disease (CD) and to measure the effects of treatment on patient general well-being, health-related quality of life (QoL), fistula healing, CD-related extra-intestinal manifestations, work performance, and overall activity.

NCT ID: NCT00409188 Completed - Clinical trials for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Cancer Vaccine Study for Unresectable Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (START)

START
Start date: January 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the cancer vaccine tecemotide (L-BLP25) in addition to best supportive care is effective in prolonging the lives of subjects with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer, compared to best supportive care alone. A local ancillary (sub) study in European centers will evaluate the immune response in peripheral blood after tecemotide (L-BLP25) or placebo vaccination.

NCT ID: NCT00409032 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

A Dose-response Study With Strontium Malonate in Postmenopausal Women

Start date: December 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of the study is to compare dose-response effect of three dose levels of strontium malonate to placebo on bone resorption quantified by S-CTX-1 following 12 weeks of treatment.

NCT ID: NCT00408707 Completed - Postoperative Pain Clinical Trials

Local Infiltration Analgesia With Ropivacaine Versus Placebo in Bilateral Knee Arthroplasty

Start date: September 2006
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to examine whether local infiltration analgesia (LIA) with Ropivacaine and adrenaline is effective in the treatment of postoperative pain after total knee arthroplasty.

NCT ID: NCT00408629 Completed - Ulcerative Colitis Clinical Trials

Efficacy and Safety of Adalimumab in Subjects With Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis

Start date: November 2006
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This was a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the human anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) monoclonal antibody adalimumab (ADA) in patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).

NCT ID: NCT00408291 Completed - Fracture Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Treatment of Fractures of the Humerus With a Plate.

Start date: December 2011
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to study with the use of clinical and radiological parameters the treatment of three-part and four-part fractures with the Winsta PH osteosynthesis device (Fischer Medical).
