NCT ID: NCT02240693 Completed - Alzheimer Disease Clinical Trials

Alzheimer Disease Proof of Concept Study With BI 409306 Versus Placebo

The study is designed to compare the effects of 4 different doses of orally administered BI 409306 to placebo in patients with Alzheimers Disease

NCT ID: NCT02240680 Completed - Clinical trials for Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Linagliptin as Add on to Basal Insulin in the Elderly

Start date: September 23, 2014
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

To investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of linagliptin 5 milligrams once a day compared to placebo as as add-on therapy for 24 weeks to stable basal insulin treatment in elderly patients, 60 years of age and older, with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and insufficient glycaemic control.Stable background therapy of metformin and/or alpha-glucosidase inhibitors is also allowed. In addition, this trial will assess if linagliptin reduces the risk of hypoglycaemia when added to background basal insulin therapy. The treatment duration of this trial (24 weeks) will enable assessment of the clinically relevant endpoint of a decrease in glycosylated Haemoglobin, a well-accepted measurement of chronic glycaemic control.

NCT ID: NCT02240654 Completed - Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Potential Off-label Use of Dabigatran Etexilate in Europe

Start date: November 28, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

This is a descriptive, observational, multi-country European cross-sectional study of new users of dabigatran etexilate that aims to characterise on- and off-label status and other medical characteristics at the time of the first captured prescription of dabigatran etexilate in each database. The study will be conducted using Cegedim Strategic Database (CSD, France), Danish National Databases (Denmark) and Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD, UK).

NCT ID: NCT02240030 Completed - Clinical trials for Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease

Efficacy and Safety Study of CVT-301 In Parkinson's Disease Patients With OFF Episodes

SPAN-PD™
Start date: November 2014
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled, double-blind study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of inhaled CVT 301 compared with placebo in PD patients experiencing motor response fluctuations (OFF phenomena) as an outpatient (i.e., at home) and in the clinic. Patients who successfully complete this study will be eligible to enroll into a 12 month treatment extension (CVT-301-004E) study.

NCT ID: NCT02240004 Completed - Inflammation Clinical Trials

Hemo Filtration Reinfusion (HFR) Clearance Efficiency Towards P-bound Toxins and Effects on Inflammatory and Endothelial Damage Markers

SUPREMO
Start date: May 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The aim of this study is to compare purification efficiency of HFR in terms of clearance of protein-bound toxins and the effects on markers of inflammation and endothelial damage, in comparison to HF-HD and OL-HDF.

NCT ID: NCT02239120 Completed - Stroke Clinical Trials

Dabigatran Etexilate for Secondary Stroke Prevention in Patients With Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source (RE-SPECT ESUS)

Start date: November 27, 2014
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This trial will enroll approximately 6,000 patients with recent embolic stroke of unknown source (ESUS). Patients will be randomized to dabigatran or acetylsalicyclic acid (ASA) (1:1 ratio) and have visits every three months. The study doctor may prescribe blinded concomitant ASA for pts with coronary artery disease but this is not mandatory. All Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), outcome events will be recorded. The trial will conclude when the required number of stroke events are positively adjudicated which is estimated to take 3 years (including 2.5 years of enrollment).

NCT ID: NCT02238639 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Pulmonary Embolism as a Cause of COPD Exacerbations

SLICE
Start date: October 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective is to demonstrate the clinical benefits of an active strategy for the diagnosis and treatment of PE compared to usual care in patients with unexplained exacerbations of COPD who require hospital admission. The secondary objective is to assess the safety of an active strategy for the diagnosis and treatment of PE compared to usual care in patients with unexplained exacerbations of COPD who require hospital admission.

NCT ID: NCT02238470 Completed - Ischemic Stroke Clinical Trials

Intracerebral Hemorrhage Due to Oral Anticoagulants: Prediction of the Risk by Magnetic Resonance

HERO
Start date: April 2012
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Magnetic Resonance Imaging may predict the risk of Intracerebral Hemorrhage for patients with ischemic stroke who receive indefinite oral anticoagulation

NCT ID: NCT02237300 Completed - Bulimia Nervosa Clinical Trials

Virtual Reality Based Cue-exposure Treatment for Bulimia Nervosa

Start date: February 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction: The purpose of this research is to develop a new component for cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT), empirically validated, for binge eating behavior in patients with bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED), by means of cue-exposure therapy (CET) with virtual reality. While CBT is an effective treatment for these eating disorders, an important percentage of patients do not improve despite treatment. It is necessary to explore how to enhance the effectivity of usual treatments with the incorporation of new technologies and procedures. The innovation of this investigation is based on the use of VR for cue-exposure therapy, which has been found effective with patients resistant to conventional treatments (CBT and pharmacological intervention), and seeks to enhance this efficacy by increasing possibilities of generalization and providing more useful tools to clinicians, diminishing the logistic complications of the exposure to real cues (food). Participants: 60 patients with a diagnosis of BN or BED according the DSM-5 who had been proposed for participation in the study by their referral mental health's professional after conducting unsuccessfully a first level treatment (CBT structured intervention) at the clinical sites involved will participate in the study. Procedure: Participants with active episodes of binge eating (and purging, in the case of BN) during the last 2 weeks of the structured intervention of CBT will be provided with detailed information about the study. All patients who agree to participate in the study and who sign the informed consent form will be randomly assigned to one of the two second-level treatment conditions: virtual reality based cue-exposure therapy (VR-CET) or additional cognitive-behavioral treatment (A-CBT). Both second-level treatment conditions consist of six 60-minute sessions that are held two times per week over a period of three weeks. In an interview setting, all of the participants will be administered several questionnaires (BN, DT and BD subscales of EDI-3, FCQ-T/S, and STAI-Y) and participants assigned to the VR-CET will also be exposed to various types of virtual foods in different virtual environments (kitchen, dining-room, bedroom, and café) where they will be asked about their food cravings and anxiety experienced in each situation to develop a proper exposure hierarchy according to the specific characteristics and needs of each patient.
