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 allow patients similar to that evaluated in the TROPIC trial (NCT00417079), and Investigators access to cabazitaxel for the management of metastatic Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer (mHRPC) in those patients who have progressed during or after docetaxel and to document the overall safety of cabazitaxel in these patients. Please note that in each country, patient recruitment will end when cabazitaxel becomes commercially available.
In this study all patients will be treated with the same medicine, the QUTENZA patch. Subjects will receive up to 6 QUTENZA patch applications over 12 months.
This phase II trial studies how well giving bicalutamide with or without Akt inhibitor MK2206 works in treating patients with previously treated prostate cancer. Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as bicalutamide, may lessen the amount of androgens made by the body. Akt inhibitor MK2206 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether bicalutamide is more effective with or without Akt inhibitor MK2206 in treating prostate cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of daily feedback about physical activity (number of bouts of walking, duration of bouts, total walking distance, average and fastest walking speed) and walking average speed compared to feedback about walking speed only on walking-related outcomes during inpatient rehabilitation for stroke. For the first time, daily walking and other exercise will be monitored by bilateral triaxial accelerometers on the ankles. Activity-recognition algorithms will analyze the inpatient sensor data and return a summary to the participants at each site.
The purpose of this clinical study is to demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of the Trufit CB (Cartilage Bone) implant for the treatment of single, isolated cartilage defects of the knee compared to Microfracture.
For children and adolescents, how does SPD503 compare to placebo for the treatment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
The purpose of this study is to validate the use of a low-dose computed tomography (CT) protocol and facilitate reduced radiation doses in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This is to be achieved using new computer software (Iterative Reconstruction and Automatic Tube Modulation) which will enable low-dose CT imaging at doses equivalent to that of an abdominal radiograph.
The aim of the study is to investigate the longterm impact on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, relevant efficacy parameters (e.g., glycaemic parameters) and safety (e.g., weight and hypoglycaemia) of treatment with linagliptin in patients with type 2 diabetes at elevated cardiovascular risk receiving usual care, and compare outcome against glimepiride.
This trial will assess the safety and efficacy of ACZ885 in patients with active recurrent or chronic TNF-receptor associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS).
The goal of the TAXUS™ Element™ Paclitaxel-Eluting Coronary Stent System European Post-Approval Surveillance Study is to evaluate real world clinical outcomes data for the TAXUS™ Element™ Coronary Stent System in unselected patients in routine clinical practice.
