Open label, single dose study of the pharmacokinetics of tigecycline in adult subjects with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC)
Pre-Term Labor (prior to 37 weeks gestation) is the largest single cause of infant morbidity and mortality and is frequently associated with long-term disability. Oxytocin is a hormone produced by the body during labor. GSK221149A is an experimental drug that will be used to block the effects of oxytocin, and therefore pause or prevent contractions. In this study, patients with preterm labor will be given an intravenous infusion of GSK221149A over approximately 12 hours followed by an oral tablet in Parts A and B. In part C of this study, patients with preterm labor will be give an intravenous infusion of GSK221149A over approximately 48 hours. The use of a rescue tocolytic is allowed in the study.
This is a phase 3, randomized, multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of albumin interferon alfa 2b (alb-IFN)in combination with ribavirin compared with peginterferon alfa-2a (PEGASYS or PEG-IFNa2a) in combination with ribavirin in subjects with chronic hepatitis C, genotype 1 who are IFNa treatment naive.
The goal of this study is to answer the following questions: - Whether treatment with amantadine, metformin or zonisamide can prevent or reverse the weight gain that is associated with olanzapine - Whether taking amantadine, metformin or zonisamide can help patients decrease or eliminate some of the changes in body that occur with weight gain - How weight gain associated with olanzapine can affect people - Whether treatment with amantadine, metformin or zonisamide can help eliminate weight gain associated with olanzapine and not interfere with the positive effects of olanzapine on functioning of people with schizophrenia and other diseases
The purpose of this study is to determine if the ACADIA® Facet Replacement System is effective in the treatment of spinal stenosis. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the overall success rate of the Anatomic Facet Replacement System in patients with spinal stenosis when compared to a posterior spinal fusion control.
This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). This trial compares the changes in HbA1c after 26 weeks of repaglinide and metformin fixed dose combination tablet given as twice daily versus three times daily regimens or versus twice daily rosiglitazone and metformin fixed dose combination tablet in subjects with type 2 diabetes currently on monotherapy.
This 4-arm study will compare the efficacy and safety of PEGASYS induction and maintenance dosing, versus standard fixed dosing in combination with Copegus, and the efficacy and safety of higher dose versus standard dose Copegus in combination with PEGASYS. Patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) genotype 1 infection of high viral titer, and baseline body weight ≥85 kg, will be randomized to one of 4 groups, to receive one of the following: a) PEGASYS 180 µg subcutaneously (sc) weekly plus Copegus 1200 mg orally (po) daily; b) PEGASYS 180 µg sc weekly plus Copegus 1400-1600 mg po daily; c)PEGASYS 360 µg sc weekly (induction) followed by 180 µg sc weekly (maintenance) plus Copegus 1200 mg po daily; or d) PEGASYS 360 µg sc weekly (induction) followed by 180 µg sc weekly (maintenance) plus Copegus 1400-1600 mg po daily. Following 48 weeks treatment, there will be a 24-week period of treatment-free follow-up. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of the fixed combination asthma drug FlutiForm with its two components administered alone, fluticasone propionate and formoterol fumarate, and with placebo in adult and adolescent patients with moderate to severe asthma.
Connect to Protect (C2P): Partnerships for Youth Prevention Interventions is a multi-site, three-phase project developed by the Adolescent Medicine Trials Network for HIV/AIDS Interventions (ATN). The overall goal of the project is to ultimately reduce HIV incidence and prevalence in youth 12-24 years old through a community mobilization intervention. This protocol (ATN 040) describes part one of Phase III. Part two of Phase III will be submitted as a separate protocol (ATN 041).
Infection with either HIV or hepatitis C virus (HCV) affects immune system responses. The purpose of this study is to investigate the immune responses to two different vaccine formulations in HIV-infected, HCV-infected, and HCV/HIV- coinfected individuals.
