NCT ID: NCT00626028 Completed - Cardiomyopathy Clinical Trials

Comparison of Inhaled Nitric Oxide and Oxygen in Participants Reactivity During Acute Pulmonary Vasodilator Testing

Start date: September 2004
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The primary purpose of this study is to compare the number of participants with reversible pulmonary hypertension (vasoreactivity) due to nitric oxide for inhalation and oxygen as compared to 100% oxygen.

NCT ID: NCT00625664 Completed - Clinical trials for Urinary Bladder Neoplasms

Larotaxel + Cisplatin Versus Gemcitabine + Cisplatin in First Line Treatment of Locally Advanced/Metastatic Urothelial Tract or Bladder Cancer

CILAB
Start date: February 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center study comparing the efficacy and safety of XRP9881 plus cisplatin to gemcitabine plus cisplatin in the first line treatment of locally advanced/metastatic urothelial tract or bladder cancer. The primary objective is to compare overall survival. Secondary objectives include comparisons of progression free survival, objective response rate, time to definitive deterioration of performance status, duration of response, time to definitive weight loss, and assessments of overall safety, and pharmacokinetics. Patients are treated until disease progression, death, or unacceptable toxicity and are followed-up until death or the end of the study whichever comes first.

NCT ID: NCT00625170 Completed - Insulin Resistance Clinical Trials

Metabolic Effects of Subchronic Dopamine D2 Receptor Blockade by Antipsychotic Drugs in Healthy Humans

Start date: May 2004
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

We hypothesized that short-term treatment with AP drugs induces insulin resistance through a mechanistic route that is independent of weight gain and that atypical drugs exert stronger effects than typical compounds in this respect. We therefore treated healthy non-obese men with olanzapine (atypical AP) or haloperidol (typical AP) for 8 days, and studied the impact of these interventions on glucose and lipid metabolism by hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp, isotope dilution technology and indirect calorimetry.

NCT ID: NCT00625014 Completed - Insulin Resistance Clinical Trials

Metabolic Effects of Subchronic Dopamine D2 Receptor Blockade by Haloperidol in Healthy Humans

Start date: March 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

We hypothesized that short-term treatment with haloperidol induces insulin resistance through a mechanistic route that is independent of weight gain. We therefore treated healthy non-obese men with haloperidol for 8 days, and studied the impact of these intervention on glucose and lipid metabolism by hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp, isotope dilution technology and indirect calorimetry.

NCT ID: NCT00624832 Completed - Asthma Clinical Trials

A Study of Efficacy of New Doses of Xolair to Protect From Allergen Challenge in Groups of Asthma Patients Defined by IgE Levels

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

This study was intended to demonstrate that patients with standard and high immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels can be protected from allergen induced broncho-constriction by Xolair

NCT ID: NCT00624624 Completed - Morbid Obesity Clinical Trials

Follow-up of Serum Androgen Profile After Bariatric Surgery in Men With Obesity Related Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism

Start date: September 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to determine the natural course of the androgen profile after bariatric surgery in men with obesity related hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

NCT ID: NCT00624338 Completed - Clinical trials for Lupus Erythematosus, Systemic

Atacicept Phase 2/3 in Generalized Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (APRIL-SLE)

APRIL-SLE
Start date: January 2008
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of atacicept compared to placebo in preventing new flares in subjects with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to confirm the optimal dose of atacicept for treatment of subjects with SLE and gain information on the effect of atacicept on markers specific to its mechanism of action (MoA) and their correlation to disease activity/progression. Study medication will be administered through subcutaneous (under the skin) injections, beginning with twice weekly injections for the first 4 weeks, followed by once weekly doses for 48 weeks. Following the last treatment, a safety follow-up period of 24 weeks will be conducted.

NCT ID: NCT00624325 Completed - Chronic Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

Subcutaneous Continuous Infusion of Interferon Alfa-2b and Ribavirin in Hepatitis C Genotype 1 Nonresponders

SCIN-C
Start date: July 2007
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

For chronic hepatitis C patients unresponsive to previous (PEG-)IFN/RBV combination therapy we propose continuous subcutaneous administration of high-dose IFN-a2b (Intron A®) for 48 weeks in combination with 15 mg/kg/day RBV (Rebetol®) and optimal management of side effects in order to maintain the highest possible dosages of both IFN-a2b and RBV for 48 weeks. We expect improved tolerability with continuous subcutaneous pump delivery of IFN-a2b compared to thrice weekly or daily subcutaneous injection of IFN-a2b, and increased antiviral activity and biologic potency due to sustained and higher levels of a fully potent interferon protein.

NCT ID: NCT00623103 Completed - Clinical trials for Parkinson's Disease Dementia

Long-term Safety of Rivastigmine Capsule and Patch in Patients With Mild to Moderately-severe Dementia Associated With Parkinson's Disease (PDD)

Start date: January 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to provide long-term safety data for rivastigmine capsule and transdermal patch treatments, in particular the effect of rivastigmine on worsening of the underlying motor symptoms of Parkinson's Disease (PD), in patients with mild to moderately severe dementia associated with PD.

NCT ID: NCT00622869 Completed - Clinical trials for Liver Transplantation

Efficacy and Safety of Concentration-controlled Everolimus to Eliminate or to Reduce Tacrolimus Compared to Tacrolimus in de Novo Liver Transplant Recipients

RAD
Start date: January 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This trial was designed to address important issues that impact recipients of liver allografts as well as clinicians, ie, renal function, reduction or discontinuation of tacrolimus early post-transplantation, and progression rate of fibrosis in hepatitis C virus (HCV) positive patients.
