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 the study is to evaluate whether treatment with ibrutinib as a monotherapy results in a clinically significant improvement in progression free survival (PFS) as compared to treatment with ofatumumab in patients with relapsed or refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL)
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the dose response, efficacy and safety of 4 different doses of fluticasone propionate (50, 100, 200, and 400mcg) delivered as Fluticasone Spiromax® Inhalation Powder (Fp Spiromax) when administered twice daily in subjects 12 years of age and older with severe persistent asthma who are uncontrolled on high dose ICS therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of the Epidrum device to identify the epidural space in labouring parturients reduces morbidity, when compared to standard loss of resistance techniques.
Primary Objective: To provide metastatic colorectal cancer participants with access to aflibercept and to document the overall safety in these participants Secondary Objective: To document the Health-Related Quality of Life of aflibercept in this participants population
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of the addition of idelalisib (formerly GS-1101) to bendamustine + rituximab (BR) on progression-free survival (PFS) in participants with previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)
This is a phase II open label, single arm study evaluating treatment with pazopanib post sunitinib treatment in 43 patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Patients will receive 800mg pazopanib per day given continuously until disease progression. Patients must have received treatment with sunitinib and relapsed. Patient must have received prior treatment with sunitinib for at least 12 weeks. Prior treatment with either temsirolimus or everolimus in addition to sunitinib is allowed. The trial design uses a Simons two stage design with an interim analysis planned after the first 15 evaluable patients. If 8 or more of the first 15 evaluable patients remains disease free at 4 months, then a further 28 patients will be enrolled for a total of 43 metastatic renal cell cancer patients. It is estimated that there could be up to 10% of patients dropping out and so to achieve the required number of 43 evaluable patients the study will recruit up to 48 patients to ensure that 43 complete if stage 2 is required. Patients will receive treatment until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of patient consent. Response assessments will be carried out every 8 weeks until disease progression. Safety assessments will be carried out every 4 weeks (plus a visit for liver function tests after 2 weeks) for the first six months and then every eight weeks until disease progression. A further safety assessment will be carried out 4 weeks after treatment discontinuation.
This multicenter, two-cohort, non-randomized, open-label study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of assisted and self-administered SC Herceptin as adjuvant therapy in participants with early HER2-positive breast cancer following tumor excision. Participants will receive Herceptin 600 milligrams (mg) SC every 3 weeks for 18 cycles, either by an assisted administration using a conventional syringe and needle/vial formulation (Cohort A) or with assisted and self-administration using a single-use injection device (SID) in selected participants (Cohort B).
Rationale: Advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harbouring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations (del19 or L858R) show an impressive progression-free survival between 9 and 14 months when treated with erlotinib. However, the presence of EGFR mutations can only imperfectly predict outcome. The investigators hypothesize that progression-free survival could be influenced both by the pretreatment EGFR T790M mutation and by components of DNA repair pathways. The investigators propose a model of treatment whereby patients with EGFR mutations (single or with T790M) can attain a benefit with longer overall PFS when treated with erlotinib plus bevacizumab. When the patients are grouped by BRCA1 mRNA levels and T790M the hypothesis is that the combination of erlotinib plus bevacizumab can improve the PFS in all subgroups.
This study is conducted in Europe. The aim of the study is to observe the safety of insulin detemir (Levemir®) in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes patients.
The purpose of this study is: - To evaluate whether 7-day treatment with oral QLT091001 can improve visual function in RP subjects with an autosomal dominant mutation in RPE65. - To evaluate duration of visual function improvement (if observed) in RP subjects with an autosomal dominant mutation in RPE65 after 7-day treatment with oral QLT091001. - To evaluate the safety of oral QLT091001 administered once daily for 7 days in RP subjects with an autosomal dominant mutation in RPE65.
