There are about 1062 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Latvia. 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 compare the effects of ZD1839 or docetaxel in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has recurred or progressed after receiving prior treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy.
This research study was conducted to compare the safety and effectiveness of the investigational medication, LdT (Telbivudine) versus Lamivudine, a drug currently approved by the US, European and Asian Health Authorities for the treatment of Hepatitis B infection. The results for patients taking LdT will be compared to results for patients taking lamivudine.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of an oral dual tyrosine kinase inhibitor (GW572016) in combination with paclitaxel compared to paclitaxel alone in first line advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
The primary objectives of the ORIGIN study were: - To determine whether insulin glargine-mediated normoglycemia can reduce cardiovascular morbidity and/or mortality in people at high risk for vascular disease with either Impaired Fasting Glucose (IFG), Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) or early type 2 diabetes; - To determine whether omega-3 fatty acids can reduce cardiovascular mortality in people with IFG, IGT or early type 2 diabetes. The secondary objectives of the insulin glargine study were to determine if insulin glargine-mediated normoglycemia can reduce: - total mortality (all causes); - the risk of diabetic microvascular outcomes; - the rate of progression of IGT or IFG to type 2 diabetes.
The primary objective of this study is efficacy. The primary efficacy endpoint of this study is a comparison of the overall survival of subjects treated with CCI-779 [Temsirolimus], administered intravenously [IV] once weekly and the combination of CCI-779, administered IV once weekly with Interferon Alfa [IFN alfa] subcutaneously [SC] three times per week [TIW], compared with the overall survival of subjects treated with IFN alfa (SC TIW) alone, in poor-prognosis subjects with advanced RCC.
Subjects are randomized to one of two treatment arms. All subjects are screened for eligibility within 28 days prior to randomization. The study consists of a treatment phase and a follow-up phase. Subjects are treated in repeating 4 week cycles.
The objective of the study is to determine the dose(s) of Ro 205-2349 which, when compared to placebo, are efficacious, safe and tolerable in improving glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. Doses of 5 to 20 mg/day will be studied.
This 4-year study will compare how safe and effective an oral investigational medicine is (compared to placebo) in preventing the development of prostate cancer in men that are defined by the study entrance criteria as being at an increased risk for prostate cancer. Study visits to the clinic will occur every 6 months for up to 4 years (10 clinic visits), and a prostate biopsy will be performed at 2 and 4 years of treatment.
The purpose of this study is to collect information on how effective and how well tolerated an oral investigational drug is compared to a standard intravenous drug in patients with pretreated, advanced non-small lung cancer (NSCLC).
This study will evaluate the long-term safety of LAMICTAL(lamotrigine)in subjects with partial seizures previously enrolled in protocol LAM20006 and in subjects 1-24 months of age who have never received LAMICTAL(LAMICTAL-naive). For LAMICTAL-naive subjects, LAMICTAL will be added to the subject's current epilepsy medications.
