NCT ID: NCT00728715 Completed - Bronchiectasis Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Budesonide-Formoterol in Bronchiectasis

Start date: January 2004
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Some studies have concluded that high-dose inhaled steroids (IS) are effective in the clinical control of patients with bronchiectasis, however the high doses needed provokes some adverse effects and lower doses are not effective. Combined treatment with budesonide and formoterol have demostrated to be effective in patients with asthma and COPD achieving the reduction of steroid dose thanks to the adition of a long-acting beta 2 agonists. There are no studies in the literature analysing the effect of combined treatment in patients with bronchiectasis. The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of formoterol-medium dose of budesonide in a single inhaler versus high-dose of budesonide in the clinical control of patientes with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. Study Design: Randomized (3 months) parallel groups study. Patients: Patients with bronchiectasis diagnosed by high-resolution CT scan and chronic obstructive airway obstruction. Exclusion: Asthma and current or past smokers. Methods: Run in period in all patients with high dose of budesonide (1600 mcg/day) for 3 months. After that, randomization into two groups: 1. The same treatment (1600 mcg/day of budesonide) or combined treatment with lower dose of budesonide (18 mcg/day of formoterol and 800 mcg of budesonide) in a single turbuhaler inhaler during 3 months. Studied variables: Clinical, functional, quality of life, microbiological and number of side effects.

NCT ID: NCT00728390 Completed - Neoplasm Metastasis Clinical Trials

A Safety And Efficacy Study Of The Combination Of Oral PF-00299804 And Intravenous CP-751,871 Given Every 3 Weeks

Start date: December 15, 2008
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This study will explore the combination of the oral drug PF-00299804 and intravenous CP-751,871 in patients with advanced solid tumor. Each of these drugs have been given separately to patients in prior studies, and this study is to establish the safety and efficacy of the combination.

NCT ID: NCT00725985 Completed - Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Trials

Oral Cladribine in Early Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

ORACLE MS
Start date: December 31, 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

A randomized, double-blind, clinical trial to assess the safety and efficacy of two doses of oral cladribine versus placebo in participants who had a first clinical demyelinating event (clinically isolated syndrome). Participants in either the cladribine or placebo group may also enter treatment periods with open-label interferon-beta or open-label cladribine depending upon the disease status. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of two dosage regimens of oral cladribine versus placebo on the time to conversion to multiple sclerosis (MS) (from randomization) according to the Poser criteria in participants with first clinical demyelinating event at high risk of converting to MS.

NCT ID: NCT00725140 Completed - Migraine Clinical Trials

Standardized sTudy With Almotriptan in eaRly Treatment of Migraine

START
Start date: June 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

This is a observational, open, prospective, single arm cohort study within authorized SPC conditions to describe the effectiveness of Almotriptan in treating acute migraine attacks when pain is mild and in the first hour of pain in everyday primary care clinical practice.

NCT ID: NCT00725049 Completed - Partial Edentulism Clinical Trials

An Evaluation of Integration Success and Maintenance of Short Implants in Maxillas Needing Sinus Augmentation

Romeo
Start date: February 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This prospective randomized study will evaluate the integration success while supporting a prosthesis for short implants placed into maxillary sites having minimal bone height that would otherwise need sinus augmentation. The resources utilized during treatment will be assessed. Study (null) hypothesis: the overall benefit of using short length implants to avoid sinus augmentation procedures will offset differences in the cumulative implant survival rates observed between treatment groups.

NCT ID: NCT00724503 Completed - Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trials

FOLFOX Plus SIR-SPHERES MICROSPHERES Versus FOLFOX Alone in Patients With Liver Mets From Primary Colorectal Cancer

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

This study is a randomized multi-center trial that will assess the effect of adding Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT), using SIR-Spheres microspheres®, to a standard chemotherapy regimen of FOLFOX as first line therapy in patients with non-resectable liver metastases from primary colorectal adenocarcinoma. Treatment with the biologic agent bevacizumab, if part of the standard of care at participating institutions, is allowed within this study at the discretion of the treating Investigator.

NCT ID: NCT00724204 Completed - Infection Clinical Trials

Safety Assessment of Lactobacillus Salivarius CECT5713 in 6 Months Old Children

P010
Start date: April 2006
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The aim of the trial is to evaluate safety of a follow on formula supplemented with Lactobacillus salivarius CECT5713. A randomized double blind placebo controlled trial was carried out. Eighty six months old children were recruited by the department of pediatrics of Hospital Univeristario San Cecilio. Children were divided in two groups that consumed a follow on formula supplemented or not with the probiotic strain during 6 months. Fecal samples were obtained at the recruitment, at 3 months and at the end of the trial. In addition revision by the pediatrician was performed once a month and possible adverse effects were recorded both by the pediatrician and by parents.

NCT ID: NCT00723957 Completed - Clinical trials for Advanced/Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

A Randomized Phase 2 Study of Ixabepilone Plus Carboplatin and Paclitaxel Plus Carboplatin in Advanced Nonsmall-Cell Lung Cancer

Start date: December 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether progression-free survival with ixabepilone is superior to that achieved with paclitaxel plus carboplatin in participants with advanced nonsmall-cell lung cancer and beta III (βIII)-tubulin-positive tumors.

NCT ID: NCT00722553 Completed - Bladder Cancer Clinical Trials

Study of Pralatrexate to Treat Advanced or Metastatic Relapsed Transitional Cell Carcinoma of the Urinary Bladder

Start date: July 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether pralatrexate, given with vitamin B12 and folic acid, is effective in the treatment of advanced or metastatic bladder cancer. The study will also investigate the safety of pralatrexate with vitamin B12 and folic acid in this patient population. Additionally, this study includes the collection of blood samples to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of pralatrexate in this patient population (PK is the activity of a drug in the body over a period of time, including how the drug is absorbed, distributed in the body, localized in the tissues, and excreted from the body).

Start date: July 2008
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study is investigating how patients with severe stable state COPD perceive the variability of their symptoms throughout the day, the week and the year; the impact of these variations on their daily activities or sleep quality and how they deal with their treatments. For this purpose patients will be asked to answer a questionnaire over the phone
