NCT ID: NCT01475825 Completed - Clinical trials for Hypercholesterolemia

A Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Two Different Regimens of Mipomersen in Patients With Familial Hypercholesterolemia and Inadequately Controlled Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol

FOCUS FH
Start date: December 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Primary objective: Determine whether mipomersen (ISIS 301012) significantly reduces atherogenic lipid levels in patients with severe heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (severe HeFH), defined as low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels ≥200 mg/dL plus the presence of coronary heart disease (CHD)/risk equivalents or LDL-C levels ≥300 mg/dL regardless of the presence of CHD/risk equivalents (referred to as Cohort 1) compared to placebo. Two different mipomersen dosing regimens will be studied: subcutaneous (SC) mipomersen 200 mg once weekly versus placebo, and SC mipomersen 70 mg thrice weekly versus placebo. Secondary Objectives: - Determine whether there are qualitative differences between the safety profiles of the 2 dosing regimens and placebo in Cohort 1, patients with HeFH with LDL-C levels ≥160 mg/dL and <200 mg/dL plus the presence of CHD/risk equivalents (referred to as Cohort 2), and the overall study population - Determine whether there are qualitative differences between the tolerability of the 2 dosing regimens and placebo in Cohort 1, Cohort 2, and the overall study population - Further characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the 2 dosing regimens in Cohort 1, Cohort 2, and the overall study population - Determine whether the 2 mipomersen dosing regimens significantly reduce atherogenic lipid levels in Cohort 2 compared to placebo - Obtain additional data regarding ongoing safety and efficacy of mipomersen in patients with FH and inadequately controlled LDL-C who complete the primary efficacy assessment visit (PET) in the Blinded Treatment Period and continue treatment in Open-Label Continuation Period

NCT ID: NCT01475721 Completed - Asthma Clinical Trials

AUSTRI
Start date: November 18, 2011
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess whether the risk of serious asthma-related events (asthma-related hospitalizations, endotracheal intubations, and deaths) in adolescents and adults (12 years of age and older) taking inhaled fluticasone propionate/salmeterol combination is the same as those taking inhaled fluticasone propionate alone.

NCT ID: NCT01475032 Completed - Asthma Clinical Trials

Efficacy Study of the Product "CHF 1535" Versus Beclomethasone (BDP) and Free Combo in Asthmatic Children

PAED2/FRESH
Start date: September 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that CHF 1535 in pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI) is non-inferior to the corresponding dose of free combination of Beclomethasone (BDP) and Formoterol Fumarate (FF) and superior to the corresponding dose of BDP in terms of lung functions in asthmatic children patients.

NCT ID: NCT01474109 Completed - Systemic Sclerosis Clinical Trials

Macitentan for the Treatment of Digital Ulcers in Systemic Sclerosis Patients

DUAL-1
Start date: December 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The DUAL-1 study is designed as a multicenter, double-blind two-period study with an initial fixed 16-week Period 1, followed by a Period 2 of variable duration. All patients completing Period 1 will continue on their original randomized treatment into Period 2, until the last randomized patient has completed Period 1. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio (macitentan 3mg: macitentan 10mg: placebo). The primary objective is to demonstrate the effect of macitentan on the reduction of the number of new digital ulcers in patients with systemic sclerosis and ongoing digital ulcers. Other objectives include: - the evaluation of the efficacy of macitentan on hand functionality and DU burden at Week 16 in SSc patients with ongoing DU disease. - the evaluation of the safety and tolerability of macitentan in these patients. - the evaluation of the efficacy of macitentan on time to first DU complication during the entire treatment period.

NCT ID: NCT01472198 Completed - Pancreatic Cancer Clinical Trials

A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Simtuzumab Combined With Gemcitabine for Metastatic Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Start date: November 2011
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study will compare the efficacy of simtuzumab (GS-6624) versus placebo in combination with gemcitabine in adults with pancreatic cancer. The treatment phase of this study will be comprised of 2 sequential parts: an open label treatment phase and a double-blinded treatment phase.

NCT ID: NCT01472185 Completed - Clinical trials for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Ranolazine Monotherapy in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Start date: November 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multi-center study to determine the effect of ranolazine when given as monotherapy on glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who were inadequately controlled with diet and exercise alone and who are treatment naive to antihyperglycemic therapy or have not received antihyperglycemic therapy in the 90 days (or thiazolidinediones [TZDs] for at least 24 weeks) prior to screening, and to characterize the relationship between HbA1c reduction and other glycemic parameters in subjects with T2DM.

NCT ID: NCT01471522 Completed - Clinical trials for Coronary Artery Disease

International Study of Comparative Health Effectiveness With Medical and Invasive Approaches (ISCHEMIA)

ISCHEMIA
Start date: July 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the ISCHEMIA trial is to determine the best management strategy for higher-risk patients with stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD). This is a multicenter randomized controlled trial with 5179 randomized participants with moderate or severe ischemia on stress testing. A blinded coronary computed tomography angiogram (CCTA) was performed in most participants with eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73m2 to identify and exclude participants with either significant unprotected left main disease (≥50% stenosis) or those without obstructive CAD (<50% stenosis in all major coronary arteries). Of 8518 participants enrolled, those that had insufficient ischemia, ineligible anatomy demonstrated on CCTA or another exclusion criterion, did not go on to randomization. Eligible participants were then assigned at random to a routine invasive strategy (INV) with cardiac catheterization followed by revascularization, if feasible, plus optimal medical therapy (OMT) or to a conservative strategy (CON) of OMT, with cardiac catheterization and revascularization reserved for those who fail OMT. SPECIFIC AIMS A. Primary Aim The primary aim of the ISCHEMIA trial is to determine whether an initial invasive strategy of cardiac catheterization followed by optimal revascularization, if feasible, in addition to OMT, will reduce the primary composite endpoint of cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, resuscitated cardiac arrest, or hospitalization for unstable angina or heart failure in participants with SIHD and moderate or severe ischemia over an average follow-up of approximately 3.5 years compared with an initial conservative strategy of OMT alone with catheterization reserved for failure of OMT. B. Secondary Aims Secondary aims are to determine whether an initial invasive strategy compared to a conservative strategy will improve: 1) the composite of CV death or MI; 2) angina symptoms and quality of life, as assessed by the Seattle Angina Questionnaire; 3) all-cause mortality; 4) net clinical benefit assessed by including stroke in the primary and secondary composite endpoints; and 5) individual components of the composite endpoints.
