NCT ID: NCT00374530 Completed - Migraine Clinical Trials

Headache Inducing Characteristics and Possible Changes in Cerebral Blood Flow After Administration of PGE2

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

Before, during and after intravenous administration of PGE2 we score/measure headache, rCBF, blood flow in the middle cerebral artery and diameter of superficial temporal artery and correlate that to known pathophysiology of headache to see if PGE2 is involved in headache pathophysiology.

NCT ID: NCT00374504 Completed - Cesarean Section Clinical Trials

Prediction of Postoperative Pain by an Electrical Pain Stimulus

Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The aim of this study is to evaluate a possible correlation between predictive precesarean section pain and development of postcaesarean section pain using the PM. Patients and Methods 46 healthy pregnant women scheduled for elective cesarean section is included after informed consent. The standard operation procedures included spinal anesthesia, paracetamol 1 g 8 hourly, diclofenac 50 mg 8 hourly and oxycontine 10 mg x 2. Morphine was used for break-through pain. Before cesarian section the threshold for sensory and pain were measured 3 times, and the average was used for analyses. After cesarian section a blinded midwife assess the pain at rest and during mobilization every 12th hours over 2 days score. Data was analyzed using AUC and non-parametric test, P < 0,05.

NCT ID: NCT00374374 Completed - Crohn's Disease Clinical Trials

Treatment With Lactobacillus Rhamnosus and Lactobacillus Acidophilus for Patients With Active Colonic Crohn’s Disease.

Start date: May 2001
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a probiotic containing Lactobacillus Acidophilus and Lactobacillus Rhamnosus is effective as treatment for patients with active colonic Crohn's disease

NCT ID: NCT00374322 Completed - Neoplasms, Breast Clinical Trials

Tykerb Evaluation After Chemotherapy (TEACH): Lapatinib Versus Placebo In Women With Early-Stage Breast Cancer

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

This study was designed to evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of an oral dual tyrosine kinase inhibitor, lapatinib, versus placebo in women with early-stage ErbB2-overexpressing breast cancer who have completed their primary neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy and have no clinical or radiographic evidence of disease.

NCT ID: NCT00373971 Completed - Hip Fracture Clinical Trials

Preventing Loss of Weight, Fat Free Mass and Activities of Daily Living

Start date: November 1995
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Malnutrition of elder orthopaedic patients leads to weight loss and loss of fat free mass. Changes in the individual’s nutritional status and body composition may adversely affect the patient’s postoperative level of activity. Aim. Thus, the purpose of the present study is to report changes in postoperative weight, FFM and functions vital to daily living in a group of elder orthopaedic patients that were actively involved in their nutritional care during the hospital stay.

NCT ID: NCT00373828 Completed - Clinical trials for Ischemic Heart Disease

Non-cardiac Chest Pain Evaluation and Treatment Study (CARPA) - Part 1: Diagnosis.

Start date: June 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The overall aim of the project is to evaluate diagnosis and treatment of chest pain originating from the musculoskeletal system. Specifically, we wish to investigate prevalence and character of such chest pain in a population of patients with acute chest pain, admitted to a university hospital based acute chest pain clinic, and undergoing evaluation of acute coronary syndrome (Part 1). Then, to test a manually-based treatment protocol to patients with diagnosed musculoskeletal chest pain in a randomized clinical trial (Part 2). The specific purpose of this study (Part 1) is to determine the exact number of patients with acute chest pain origination from the musculoskeletal system, and to describe their cardiac status with respect to ischemic heart disease. Further, we wish to evaluate the decision making process of the chiropractor.

NCT ID: NCT00372125 Completed - Clinical trials for Prader-Willi Syndrome

Nordic Study on the Effects of Growth Hormone (Norditropin SimpleXx) Treatment in Adults With Prader-Willi Syndrome

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

The aim of this study is to study the effects of GH on body composition, lipid and glucose metabolism, physical performance and safety aspects in adults with PWS.The patients are randomized to either GH or placebo the first year of the study, subsequently followed by two years of GH treatment. the study is performed in Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

NCT ID: NCT00371683 Completed - Pulmonary Embolism Clinical Trials

Study of Apixaban for the Prevention of Thrombosis-related Events Following Knee Replacement Surgery

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

The purpose of this study is to learn if apixaban can prevent blood clots in the leg (deep vein Thrombosis [DVT]) and lung (pulmonary embolism [PE]) that sometimes occur after knee replacement surgery and to learn how apixaban compares to enoxaparin (Lovenox®) for preventing these clots. The safety of apixaban will also be studied.

NCT ID: NCT00370331 Completed - Clinical trials for Purpura, Thrombocytopenic, Idiopathic

RAISE: Randomized Placebo-Controlled Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) Study With Eltrombopag

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

The rationale for this Phase III study is to evaluate the 6 month safety and efficacy of eltrombopag in the treatment of previously treated subjects with chronic ITP. The starting dose of eltrombopag, 50 mg, once daily was selected based upon the observed efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics in a dose-finding Study (TRA100773). This Phase III study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase III study, to evaluate efficacy, safety and tolerability of eltrombopag, initially administered as 50 mg oral tablets once daily for six months in adult subjects with previously treated chronic ITP. Subjects will be randomized 2:1, eltrombopag to placebo, and will be stratified based upon splenectomy status, use of ITP medication at baseline and baseline platelet count less than or equal to 15,000/µL. Subjects will receive study medication for 6 months, during which the dose of study medication may be adjusted based upon individual platelet counts. In addition, subjects may taper off concomitant ITP medications and may receive any rescue treatments as dictated by local standard of care. After discontinuation of study medication, subjects will complete follow-up visits at weeks 1, 2, 4 and months 3 and 6.

NCT ID: NCT00370136 Completed - Malignant Melanoma Clinical Trials

Sentinel Node With Ultrasound Contrast in Melanoma

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

The purpose is to evaluate,in 20 patients, if the sentinel node(s) in melanoma can be detected by lymph contrast ultrasound. In comparing the patients will also get lymph-scintigraphy and sentinel node detection wiht blue dye. The goal is to improve the method for detecting sentinel node(s) in melanoma.
