Banded Versus Conventional Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (GABY). The aim of this novel study is to evaluate, if an additional restrictive silastic ring can avoid dilation of the gastro-entero anastomosis and adjacent small bowel with consecutive better postoperative weight loss and significantly improved long-term weight maintenance. The study will not investigate the GaBP-Ring as medical product but the effect of the GaBP-Ring on weight loss in comparison to gastric bypass alone.
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the potential benefits/risks regarding pretreatment with prasugrel in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) participants with elevated troponin scheduled for coronary angiography/percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
The trial will be performed to evaluate if BIBF 1120 in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin is more effective than placebo in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin in first-line treatment of patients with advanced ovarian cancer. Safety information about BIBF1120/paclitaxel/carboplatin will be obtained.
The objective of the current study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of BI 10773 at two different doses compared to placebo during long term treatment (78 weeks) in combination with basal insulin in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with insufficient glycaemic control.
This observational, non-interventional cohort study will evaluate predictors of response in patients with chronic hepatitis B receiving standard of care Pegasys therapy. Efficacy and safety parameters will also be evaluated. Patients included in the study will be followed for the duration of their treatment and for up to 3 years thereafter.
This randomized, double-blind, parallel group study will assess the safety, disease remission, and prevention of structural joint damage in patients with early moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis treated with tocilizumab as monotherapy or in combination with methotrexate, versus methotrexate alone. Patients will be randomized to receive either (A) tocilizumab (8 mg/kg iv every 4 weeks) plus placebo, (B) tocilizumab (8 mg/kg iv every 4 weeks) plus methotrexate (7.5-20 mg po weekly), (C) tocilizumab (4 mg/kg iv every 4 weeks) plus methotrexate (7.5-20 mg po weekly), or (D) placebo plus methotrexate (7.5-20 mg po weekly). Patients in groups C and D who have not achieved low disease activity at week 52 can receive tocilizumab 8 mg/kg iv every 4 weeks. Anticipated time on study treatment is 104 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to provide atazanavir or tenofovir-emtricitabine to HIV-infected subjects who have completed atazanavir or tenofovir-emtricitabine therapy on a previous BMS sponsored clinical trial
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of bapineuzumab in subjects with Alzheimer Disease who participated in study 3133K1-3001(NCT00676143). Over 250 sites will participate in over 26 countries. Subjects will receive bapineuzumab. Each subject's participation will last approximately 4 years.

Phase IIIb study to evaluate the long-term efficacy of ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) (using targeted ferritin levels to determine dosing) or oral iron in non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (NDD-CKD) subjects with iron deficiency anaemia (IDA).
