NCT ID: NCT01811160 Completed - Clinical trials for Second Generation Antipsychotic Induced Metabolic Adverse Effects

Metabolic Effects of Melatonin in Patients Treated With Second Generation Antipsychotics

Start date: October 2008
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are frequently associated with an elevated risk for obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and other metabolic disturbances. Second Generation Antipsychotics (SGA) have a demonstrated efficacy in acute and long term treatment of these disorders and are considered a first option on most treatment guidelines. Unfortunately the use of SGA is associated to drug induced weight gain, disturbed glucose and lipid regulation and an increase of cardiovascular risk and mortality as well as non- adherence to treatment. There are several hypotheses attempting to explain the complex pathways that lead to antipsychotic therapeutic effects and their accompanying adverse effects. Recently, in animals receiving SGA, melatonin prevented to a large extent the body weight increase, which indicates a possible role for biological rhythms in SGA induced body weight accumulation. Melatonin is a hormone secreted by the pineal gland that follows a circadian rhythm with an increased secretion in the middle of the night. This hormone acts importantly on the suprachiasmatic nucleus and other areas in the brain and periphery. Thus melatonin is involved in a series of biological functions such as sleep regulation, blood pressure, regulation of circadian rhythms, mood, behavior, and more recently in the regulation of metabolic processes including insulin, leptin, and lipid regulation. Given previous results in experimental animals, the purpose of the present study is to test the potential effect of melatonin in reducing or preventing some of the metabolic disturbances associated with SGA

NCT ID: NCT01809327 Completed - Clinical trials for Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

A Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness, Safety, and Tolerability of Canagliflozin in Combination With Metformin in the Treatment of Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus With Inadequate Glycemic Control With Diet and Exercise

Start date: June 2013
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the co-administration of canagliflozin and metformin extended release (XR) compared with canagliflozin alone, and metformin XR alone in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with inadequate control despite treatment with diet and exercise. The safety and tolerability of canagliflozin will also be assessed.

NCT ID: NCT01808092 Completed - Clinical trials for Ventilator-associated Pneumonia (VAP)

A Study Comparing Ceftazidime-Avibactam Versus Meropenem in Hospitalized Adults With Nosocomial Pneumonia

Start date: April 2013
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effects of Ceftazidime-Avibactam compared to Meropenem for treating hospitalized adults with nosocomial pneumonia including ventilator-associated pneumonia

NCT ID: NCT01804686 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

A Long-term Extension Study of PCI-32765 (Ibrutinib)

CAN3001
Start date: September 9, 2013
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to collect long-term safety and efficacy data for participants treated with ibrutinib and to provide ongoing access to ibrutinib for participants who are currently enrolled in ibrutinib studies that have been completed according to the parent protocol, are actively receiving treatment with ibrutinib, and who continue to benefit from ibrutinib treatment.

NCT ID: NCT01800006 Completed - Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trials

Xarelto for Prevention of Stroke in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation in Latinamerica and EMEA Region

XANTUS-EL
Start date: January 14, 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

This international study is a prospective noninterventional observational cohort study of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation who are prescribed rivaroxaban under routine treatment conditions to prevent stroke or non-central nervous system systemic embolism. Patients will be followed up for 1 year or until 30 days after end of rivaroxaban therapy in case of therapy was discontinued earlier than 12 months. Serious adverse events will be followed up adequately. Laboratory values (e.g., Hb, HCT, haemoccult) should be documented for each point in time they were measured.

NCT ID: NCT01799993 Completed - Clinical trials for Pneumonia, Bacterial

Inhaled Amikacin Solution BAY41-6551 as Adjunctive Therapy in the Treatment of Gram-Negative Pneumonia

INHALE 1
Start date: April 13, 2013
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

To demonstrate that as adjunctive therapy to intravenous (IV) antibiotics, BAY 41-6551 400 mg (amikacin as free base) administered as an aerosol by the Pulmonary Drug Delivery System (PDDS) Clinical every 12 hours is safe and more effective than placebo (aerosolized normal saline) administered as an aerosol by the PDDS Clinical every 12 hours, in intubated and mechanically-ventilated patients with Gram-negative Pneumonia. The secondary endpoint objectives are to evaluate the superiority of aerosolized BAY 41-6551 versus aerosolized placebo in pneumonia-related mortality, the Early Clinical Response at Day 10, the days on ventilation, and the days in the intensive care unit (ICU).

NCT ID: NCT01797965 Terminated - Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Trials

EXTEND
Start date: February 15, 2013
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment with BIIB019 (Daclizumab High Yield Process; DAC HYP) monotherapy in participants with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) who completed Study 205MS301 (NCT01064401), Study 205MS203 (NCT01051349) or Study 205MS302 (NCT01462318). Secondary objectives of this study in this study population are as follows: To describe MS-related outcomes, including MS relapse, disability progression, MS lesion formation, and participant-reported impact of MS, following long-term treatment with DAC HYP To assess the long-term immunogenicity of DAC HYP administered by prefilled syringe (PFS) To assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of switching to DAC HYP in participants previously on long-term treatment with interferon β-1a (Avonex) in Study 205MS301(NCT01064401).
