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.
To evaluate the long term effects of treatment with two doses of Tiotropium delivered by the Respimat inhaler in patients with COPD.
To show whether addition of thrombolytic treatment by a single bolus injection of tenecteplase prior to early standard PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) will improve the clinical outcome in patients with large acute myocardial infarcts as compared to primary PCI alone.
A randomised, double-blind, 3-arm parallel group study comparing Aricept® with placebo.
Bronchial asthma is among the world's most prevalent diseases. Roflumilast is a novel, orally active, selective enzyme inhibitor (phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor), which has shown effectiveness in the treatment of asthma. The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of roflumilast taken orally together with low dose inhaled corticosteroids on lung function. Roflumilast will be administered at one dose level once daily together with inhaled corticosteroids at one dose level twice daily. The study duration consists of a baseline period (2 to 6 weeks) and a treatment period (24 weeks). The study will provide further data on safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of roflumilast.
This study was conducted to assess the safety and tolerability of Abatacept combined with Methotrexate in participants with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The secondary objectives were to assess efficacy, pharmacodynamic marker activity, and immunogenicity of Abatacept combined with Methotrexate.
The primary purpose of this study is to obtain long-term safety data with CZP in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Additional objectives are to assess the dose and type of Arthritis medication(s) utilized by patients, and to assess the long-term impact of CZP on physical function. Treatment will continue up to approval of a marketing application for this product.
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.
The purpose of the trial is to determine if extended-release dipyridamole + aspirin [Aggrenox, Asasa ntin] is superior to clopidogrel [Plavix], and if telmisartan [Micardis, Gliosartan, Kinzal, Kinzalm ono, Predxal, Pritor, Samertan, Telmisartan] is superior to placebo, in the presence of background antihypertensive therapy, in prevention of a second stroke in patients who have recently suffered a stroke and therefore are at high risk of suffering another one.
The purpose of the study is to compare pregabalin to Venlafaxine XR and placebo in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder.
To estimate the frequency of patients with ocular/periorbital adverse events. To identify any possible long-term adverse consequences of increased iris pigmentation and to follow serious adverse events throughout the study period.
