NCT ID: NCT00528970 Completed - Ileus Clinical Trials

A Study Evaluating Intravenous (IV) MOA-728 for the Treatment of Postoperative Ileus (POI) in Participants After Ventral Hernia Repair

Start date: October 17, 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of two different dose regimens (12 milligrams [mg] and 24 mg) of IV MOA-728 versus placebo in shortening the time to return of bowel function in participants receiving opioid analgesia administered via patient-controlled anesthesia (PCA), and who had undergone repair of large (greater than or equal to [≥]10 centimeters) ventral hernias with or without a mesh prosthesis via laparotomy or laparoscopy.

NCT ID: NCT00528567 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

BEATRICE Study: A Study of Bevacizumab (Avastin) Adjuvant Therapy in Triple Negative Breast Cancer

Start date: December 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The main objective of the trial is to compare Invasive Disease-Free Survival (IDFS) of patients randomised to treatment with adjuvant chemotherapy alone or to adjuvant chemotherapy with 1 year of bevacizumab. The secondary objectives of this trial are to: - compare Overall Survival (OS), Breast Cancer-Free Interval (BCFI), Disease- Free Survival (DFS) and Distant Disease-Free Survival (DDFS) of patients randomised to treatment with adjuvant chemotherapy alone or to adjuvant chemotherapy in combination with 1 year of bevacizumab - evaluate the safety and tolerability of bevacizumab An exploratory sub-study (not reported here) was to identify biomarkers (from tumour or serum) predictive of toxicity and for the level of benefit from the addition of bevacizumab to standard adjuvant systemic treatment.

NCT ID: NCT00528528 Completed - Chronic Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

An Open-Label Study of Telaprevir Administered Every 12 or 8 Hours in Combination With One of Two Pegylated Interferons and Ribavirin in Treatment-Naive Genotype 1 Chronic Hepatitis C Participants

Start date: October 2007
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (the study of the way a drug enters and leaves the blood and tissues over time), and pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationships of telaprevir administered in two different doses in combination with two standard therapies commercially available for chronic (lasting a long time) genotype 1 Hepatitis (inflammation of the liver) C virus (HCV) infection.

NCT ID: NCT00528112 Completed - Contraception Clinical Trials

Levonorgestrel Contraceptive Intrauterine Systems (LCS) Pearl Index Study

Start date: August 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a study on a new low dose levonorgestrel contraceptive intrauterine systems (LCS). The purpose of the study is to investigate which of the 2 administered doses is the lowest effective intrauterine dose of Levonorgestrel (LNG) administered via the LCS for contraception during 3 years. The study was amended: the LCS16 arm will be extended up to 5 years

NCT ID: NCT00527553 Completed - Clinical trials for Age-related Macular Degeneration

The Effect of Eggs and Egg Products on Macular Pigment

Start date: October 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Age-related macula degeneration (AMD, encompassing both dry and wet form), the late stage of Age-related maculopathy (ARM), is the leading cause of blindness in many developed countries in older persons (usually over 60 years of age). Visual compromise rises exponentially after the age of 70 with a 5-year incidence of around 1%. Studies have shown a possible protective effect of lutein on progression of AMD, where visual acuity improves after increased lutein intake. The incidence of bilateral AMD in persons with unilateral late ARM observed over a period of 10 years is over 50% with a 2.1-2.8% overall incidence in the study population. Blue light hazard (excitation peak 440 nm) was shown to have a major impact on photoreceptor and RPE function inducing photochemical damage and cellular apoptosis, leading to retinal degeneration in an animal study. The current belief is that lutein accumulated in the macular region helps in the prevention of blindness by absorbing blue light and protecting the retina from oxidative stress. With the lipid matrix of the egg yolk being a proven vehicle for the efficient absorption of dietary lutein, it might be possible to increase plasma levels of lutein to therapeutic levels and control or prevent AMD. This, the investigators hope, will be accomplished by means of filtering out harmful blue light and the scavenging of free radicals by lutein and zeaxanthin.

NCT ID: NCT00526227 Completed - Tachyarrhythmias Clinical Trials

SecuraTM ICD Clinical Evaluation Study

Start date: October 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the Secura clinical study is to evaluate the overall system safety and clinical performance of the Secura DR Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD)

NCT ID: NCT00526136 Completed - Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trials

Vernakalant (Oral) Prevention of Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence Post-Conversion Study

Start date: March 2007
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of 3 doses of vernakalant (oral) (150 mg, 300 mg and 500 mg b.i.d.) administered for up to 90 days in subjects with sustained symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF duration > 72 hours and < 6 months).

NCT ID: NCT00526045 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Phase I-II Study to Determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of AUY922 in Advanced Solid Malignancies, and Efficacy in HER2+ or ER+ Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer Patients

Start date: July 2007
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a phase I/II, open-label, multicenter study of AUY922 administered intravenously in patients with advanced solid malignancies to determine the maximum tolerated dose. Phase II expansion arms will investigate efficacy in patients with either HER2 positive or ER positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Additional patients with advanced solid malignancies will also be investigated in a separate expansion arm. Safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics will be assessed.

NCT ID: NCT00525824 Completed - Atherosclerosis Clinical Trials

GRAVITY
Start date: August 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment of Rosuvastatin (CRESTOR™) or Simvastatin given as monotherapy or given in combination with Ezetimibe, will lower the Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) in patients with Hypercholesterolaemia and Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) or a CHD Risk Equivalent, Atherosclerosis or a 10-year CHD Risk of >20%
