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 identify an effective, well tolerated dose and schedule of romiplostim that is appropriate for the treatment of chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia (CIT) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer receiving gemcitabine and platinum.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of the new medication ASK8007, and to study whether it has a beneficial effect on joint inflammation in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if abatacept can improve signs and symptoms of active ulcerative colitis in patients who have not had an adequate response to other therapies. The safety of this treatment will also be studied
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of adalimumab for treatment of patients with moderate to severe Crohn's Disease (CD) and to measure the effects of treatment on patient general well-being, health-related quality of life (QoL), fistula healing, CD-related extra-intestinal manifestations, work performance, and overall activity.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the cancer vaccine tecemotide (L-BLP25) in addition to best supportive care is effective in prolonging the lives of subjects with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer, compared to best supportive care alone. A local ancillary (sub) study in European centers will evaluate the immune response in peripheral blood after tecemotide (L-BLP25) or placebo vaccination.
Primary objective: To demonstrate the non-inferiority of insulin glargine in comparison to insulin detemir in term of percentage of patients who reach the target of HbA1c < 7% at the end of the treatment period and do not experience symptomatic hypoglycemia, confirmed by plasma glucose (PG) ≤ 56 mg/dL (3.1 mmol/L) Secondary objectives: - To compare between the 2 treatment groups, the percentage of patients who reach the target of HbA1c < 7% and < 6.5% at the end of the treatment period - To compare the changes in HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) - To compare the evolution of blood glucose profiles - To compare the day to day FPG variability, the insulin doses - To determine in each treatment group the biochemical and patient-related determinants of failure to reach HbA1c targets - To compare the overall incidence and rate of symptomatic hypoglycemia and nocturnal symptomatic hypoglycemia confirmed by PG ≤ 56 mg/dL (3.1 mmol/L) - To compare over the treatment period, the overall incidence and rate of symptomatic hypoglycemia and symptomatic nocturnal hypoglycemia (with PG ≤ 70 mg/dL [3.9 mmol/L]), of symptomatic day-time hypoglycemia (with PG ≤ 70 mg/dL and with PG ≤ 56 mg/dL), of severe hypoglycemia, of asymptomatic hypoglycemia with PG ≤ 56 mg/dL - To compare the overall safety: incidence of adverse events (including serious hypoglycemia and local tolerance at injection site), change in body weight, in waist circumference and in waist / hip ratio - To assess the quality of life and treatment satisfaction
Patients, who are considered suitable by their physicians to take part in this research, will have a physical examination (including an Electrocardiogram (ECG)), blood and urine samples taken, as well as a sample of the secretions or tissue around their infection site. In addition, the site of the infection will be photographed. The patients will be randomly assigned one of the treatments: intravenous (IV)/per oral (PO) moxifloxacin (drug under evaluation) or IV piperacillin/tazobactam followed by PO amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (i.e., one of the reference treatments for this kind of infection). The maximum treatment duration will be 21 days, and the minimum will be 7 days. During the hospitalization, the patients will have a physical examination every day. On Day 3-5 during therapy as well as at the end of treatment, the patients will have repeated examinations. These tests and evaluations will be repeated 14 to 28 days after the end of treatment. During this visit, blood and urine samples will be taken only if judged necessary by the physicians.
The purpose of this Clinical Evaluation is a continuation in the assessment of the performance of the XIENCE V® Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System (XIENCE V® EECSS) in the treatment of patients with de novo coronary artery lesions.
This is a phase 3 randomized trial evaluating the anti-tumor activity and safety of sunitinib combined with docetaxel versus docetaxel, administered as first-line treatment, in patients with unresectable locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to assess the bleeding pattern during the last 3 months of the first MIRENA® and the first year of the second MIRENA® use.
