There are about 2333 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Ireland. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the risk of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) after stopping therapy is low and acceptable in patients with a first unprovoked proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE) who have completed 3 months of therapy and who have a negative D-dimer test on therapy and 1 month after stopping therapy.
The purpose of this study is to obtain an estimate of the objective response rate (ORR) of AMG 479 in patients with recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian epithelial (including fallopian tube and primary peritoneal) carcinoma failing frontline chemotherapy.
To compare how well the new formulation of Tacrolimus® used once daily, in combination with other drugs helps prevent the rejection of a new kidney after transplantation compared to the twice daily dose of Tacrolimus
Eligible subjects will be randomly assigned to one of three dose regimens of oral R115866 or placebo for the treatment of severe plaque psoriasis for 12 twelve weeks. The safety and efficacy of R115866 will be evaluated during the treatment period and the 8-week post treatment follow-up period.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of aspirin plus clopidogrel is more effective than aspirin alone in preventing another heart attack, chest pain, stroke or death in people who have already had a heart attack that was treated with fibrinolytic therapy.
The objective of this study is to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) of the drug combination ramucirumab plus docetaxel to placebo plus docetaxel in previously untreated participants with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, unresectable, locally-recurrent or metastatic breast cancer.
This trial is conducted in Europe and North America. The aim of this trial is to compare the effect on blood sugar control of liraglutide or sitagliptin, both in combination with metformin, in subjects with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled with metformin alone. The trial has been extended by 52 weeks. The extension will consist of two 26-week periods: 1. Week 27-52 after randomisation - All subjects will continue receiving sitagliptin or liraglutide at unchanged dose and dosing regimen. 2. Week 53-78 after randomisation - Subjects receiving sitagliptin at the end of week 52 after randomisation will discontinue sitagliptin and will be randomised 1:1 to liraglutide 1.2 mg/day or liraglutide 1.8 mg/day. Liraglutide will be initiated at a dose of 0.6 mg/day, and increased to 1.2 mg/day or 1.8 mg/day in weekly intervals. - Subjects receiving liraglutide 1.2 mg/day or 1.8 mg/day at the end of week 52 after randomisation will continue the treatment at unchanged dose and dosing regimen. Trial completion is planned for June 2010.
This study will evaluate the relative efficacy and safety of prasugrel and clopidogrel in a medically managed Unstable Angina/Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (UA/NSTEMI) acute coronary syndrome (ACS) population (that is, patients who are not managed with acute coronary revascularization).
The primary objective was to compare the efficacy of once daily subcutaneous injections of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) with placebo in the prevention of venous thromboembolism [VTE] in cancer patients at high risk for VTE and who were undergoing chemotherapy. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the safety of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026), to document Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) exposures, to try identifying a metagene predictor of VTE and to assess the survival status at one year in this population.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of Lenalidomide plus low dose dexamethasone to that of the combination of melphalan, prednisone and thalidomide.
