NCT ID: NCT00159718 Completed - Angina Clinical Trials

Double Blind Atorvastatin Amlodipine Study

DUAAL
Start date: July 2001
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of amlodipine, atorvastatin and the combination in patients with symptomatic myocardial ischemia. Amlodipine's use in angina has been well documented in clinical trials such as the Circadian Anti-Ischemia Program in Europe (CAPE), but the impact on vascular inflammation in clinical practice has not been tested. Furthermore, the potentially synergistic benefit of atorvastatin and amlodipine on inflammation ischemic activity has not been studied.

NCT ID: NCT00157339 Completed - Asthma Clinical Trials

Safety and Efficacy of Inhaled Insulin in Patients With Diabetes and Asthma or COPD

Start date: August 2005
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Phase 3 , open-label, randomized study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Lilly/Alkermes inhaled insulin system compared to injected insulin in type 1 and type 2 diabetes patients with asthma or COPD. Patients will be treated for 12 months with a 2 month follow up period.

NCT ID: NCT00154102 Completed - Clinical trials for Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Expressing Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Cetuximab Combined With Irinotecan in First-line Therapy for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (CRYSTAL)

CRYSTAL
Start date: May 2004
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Drugs used against cancer work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Giving combination chemotherapy together with cetuximab as first treatment after diagnosis of a metastatic colorectal cancer ('1st-line' treatment) may improve the treatment efficacy. However, it is not yet known whether giving combination chemotherapy together with cetuximab is more effective than combination chemotherapy alone. This open-label trial investigates the effectiveness of cetuximab in combination with a standard and effective chemotherapy (5-Fluorouracil (5FU)/Folinic acid (FA) plus irinotecan) for metastatic colorectal cancer in first-line setting, compared to the same chemotherapy alone on patient expressing the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor. Patients expressing this EGF Receptor will be randomly assign in one of the 2 groups to either receive the combination chemotherapy alone or with cetuximab (open-label study) and will then be treated until progression of the disease or unacceptable toxicity occur. Regular efficacy assessments (every 8 weeks) based on imaging will be performed throughout the study together with regular safety assessments (e.g. safety labs). An independent Safety Board of experts will also monitor safety data. After participant discontinuation from the trial, regular updates on further treatments and survival status will be requested from the investigator. The entire study (from the first patient entering the study to the last collect of follow-up information) is 4-5 years long.

NCT ID: NCT00153101 Completed - Clinical trials for Cardiovascular Diseases

Effectiveness and Safety of Ramipril Alone Compared With Telmisartan Alone and in Combination With Ramipril in Patients at High Risk for Cardiovascular Events. Patients Intolerant to Ramipril Were Entered in TRANSCEND, Telmisartan Compared to Placebo.

Start date: November 2001
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The Ongoing Telmisartan Alone and in combination wiht Ramipril Global Endpoint trial (ONTARGET): The primary objectives are to determine if (a) telmisartan 80mg daily and ramipril 10mg daily combination therapy is more effective in reducing the composite endpoint of Cardiovascular Death (CV) death, Myocardial infarction (MI), stroke or hospitalization for Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) compared with ramipril 10mg alone; and (b) telmisartan 80mg daily is at least as effective as (i.e. not less effective than) ramipril 10mg daily, on this endpoint. Telmisartan Randomised Assessment Study in Angiotension converting Enzyme inhibitor intolerant subjects with Cardiovascular Disease. (TRANSCEND): The primary objective of the study is to determine if treatment with telmisartan 80mg daily is superior to placebo reducing the composite endpoint of Cardiovascular Death (CV), Myocardial Infarction ( MI)I, stroke or hospitalization for Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) in patients who are intolerant to Angiotension Converting Enzyme inhibitors.

NCT ID: NCT00153036 Completed - Clinical trials for Cerebrovascular Accident

Rt-PA in the Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke

Start date: April 2003
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

To collect additional confirmatory data on alteplase(rt-PA) in the European setting and to demonstrate that the treatment of patients between 3 and 4.30 hours of onset of symptoms of acute ischemic stroke with rt-PA compared to placebo-treated patients will result in an improved clinical outcome without increase of fatality rate.

NCT ID: NCT00152516 Completed - Epilepsy, Partial Clinical Trials

Long-Term, Follow-Up Study Of the Safety And Efficacy Of Levetiracetam In Children With Partial Onset Seizures

Start date: October 2004
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

To allow pediatric patients with partial onset seizures an opportunity to receive (as follow-up to studies N01009(NCT00105040)/N01103(NCT00175890) or by direct enrollment) open-label levetiracetam treatment, continue studying cognition and behavior in children, and continue collection of safety/efficacy data.

NCT ID: NCT00152477 Completed - Carcinoma Clinical Trials

A Study of Paclitaxel/Carboplatin With or Without CDP791 in Patients With Lung Cancer

Start date: August 15, 2005
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

A 2-part study to examine safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (part 1), and anti-tumour effects (part 2), of CDP791 combined with carboplatin and paclitaxel.

NCT ID: NCT00152399 Completed - Peptic Ulcer Clinical Trials

Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Somatostatin in the Treatment of Acute Severe Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding

Start date: September 2000
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

To assess the efficacy and safety of the early administration of somatostatin in infusion during 72 hours plus 2 boluses, compared to placebo in the control of acute severe UGIB with suspicion of PUB.

NCT ID: NCT00151892 Completed - Ulcerative Colitis Clinical Trials

Efficacy and Safety of SPD476 in Maintaining Remission in Patients With Ulcerative Colitis

Start date: April 8, 2005
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Ulcerative colitis is a disease of the large bowel (colon) and rectum in which the lining of the bowel becomes red and swollen. Over time, patients with this disease may experience acute episodes of diarrhea, rectal bleeding and abdominal pain followed by periods of time without disease symptoms. 5-ASA drugs are a standard treatment for ulcerative colitis. Mesalazine is an experimental drug designed to gradually release 5-ASA into the areas of large bowel associated with ulcerative colitis. This study will test the safety and efficacy of mesalazine in keeping ulcerative colitis in remission.

Monotherapy With Levetiracetam in Patients Suffering From Epilepsy.

Start date: August 10, 2005
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

An open-label follow-up trial assessing the long term safety of levetiracetam as per adverse events reporting.
