NCT ID: NCT00558103 Completed - Neoplasms, Breast Clinical Trials

Pazopanib Plus Lapatinib Compared To Lapatinib Alone In Subjects With Inflammatory Breast Cancer

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

The double blind part of the study is being conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of pazopanib in combination with lapatinib with that of lapatinib alone in subjects with inflammatory breast cancer whose tumors overexpress the ErbB2 protein. There is also an Open-label pazopanib arm to this study designed to test whether pazopanib given alone and lapatinib given alone would be safe and effective to treat patients with inflammatory breast cancer.

Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study will assess the long-term safety and tolerability of ACZ885 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, as well as long-term efficacy, long-term preservation and/or improvement of joint structure and bone mineral density, and long term maintenance of health-related quality of life.

NCT ID: NCT00554229 Completed - Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials

A Phase III Trial of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) (Endothelin A Antagonist) in Hormone Resistant Prostate Cancer With Bone Metastases

ENTHUSE M1
Start date: November 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Enthuse M1 is a large phase III clinical trial studying the safety and efficacy of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in patients with hormone resistant prostate cancer and bone metastases. - This clinical trial will test if the Endothelin A Receptor Antagonist ZD4054 (Zibotentan) can improve survival compared with placebo. - ZD4054(Zibotentan) is a new type of agent, which is thought to slow tumour growth and spread by blocking Endothelin A receptor activity. This trial will look at the effects of ZD4054 (Zibotentan) in hormone resistant prostate cancer patients with bone metastases. - All patients participating in this clinical trial will receive existing standard prostate cancer treatments in addition to trial therapy. - Half the patients will receive ZD4054 (Zibotentan), and half the patients will receive placebo in addition to standard prostate cancer therapy. By participating in this trial there is a 50% chance that patients will receive an agent that may slow the progression of the tumour. - No patients will be deprived of standard prostate cancer therapy.

NCT ID: NCT00553631 Completed - Clinical trials for Gaucher Disease, Type 1

Study of Gene-Activated® Human Glucocerebrosidase (GA-GCB) ERT Compared With Imiglucerase in Type I Gaucher Disease

Start date: January 29, 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Gaucher disease is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by the deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCB). Due to the deficiency of functional GCB, glucocerebroside accumulates within macrophages leading to cellular engorgement, organomegaly, and organ system dysfunction. The purpose of this non-inferiority study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GA-GCB (velaglucerase alfa) administered every other week in comparison to imiglucerase in treatment naive patients with type 1 Gaucher disease.

NCT ID: NCT00553410 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Letrozole in Preventing Cancer in Postmenopausal Women Who Have Received 4-6 Years of Hormone Therapy for Hormone Receptor-Positive, Lymph Node-Positive, Early-Stage Breast Cancer

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

RATIONALE: Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Letrozole may fight breast cancer by lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. It is not yet known which regimen of letrozole is more effective in postmenopausal women who have received hormone therapy for early-stage breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing two different regimens of letrozole in preventing cancer in postmenopausal women who have received 4-6 years of hormone therapy for hormone receptor-positive, lymph node-positive, early-stage breast cancer.

NCT ID: NCT00553358 Completed - Neoplasms, Breast Clinical Trials

Neo ALTTO (Neoadjuvant Lapatinib and/or Trastuzumab Treatment Optimisation) Study

Neo ALTTO
Start date: January 5, 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomised, open label multicenter Phase III study comparing the efficacy of neoadjuvant lapatinib plus paclitaxel, versus trastuzumab plus paclitaxel, versus concomitant lapatinib and trastuzumab plus paclitaxel given as neoadjuvant treatment in HER2/ErbB2 over-expressing and/or amplified primary breast cancer. Patients will be randomised to receive either: lapatinib 1500 mg daily, trastuzumab 4 mg/kg intravenous (IV) load followed by 2 mg/kg IV weekly, or lapatinib 1000 mg daily with trastuzumab 4 mg/kg IV load followed by 2 mg/kg IV weekly for a total of 6 weeks. After this biological window, patients on monotherapy arms will continue on the same targeted therapy plus weekly paclitaxel 80 mg/m^2 for a further 12 weeks, up to definitive surgery. In the combination arm, patients will receive lapatinib 750 mg daily in combination with trastuzumab 2 mg/kg IV plus weekly paclitaxel 80mg/m^2 IV for a further 12 weeks, up to definitive surgery. After surgery, patients will receive three courses of adjuvant chemotherapy with 5-Fluorouracil Epirubicin Cyclophosphamide (FEC) followed by the same targeted therapy as in the biological window of the neoadjuvant setting for a further 34 weeks (in the combination arm, lapatinib dose will be 1000 mg daily in combination with trastuzumab). The planned total duration of the anti-HER2 therapy one year. Primary objective is to evaluate and compare the rate of pathological complete response (pCR) at the time of surgery in patients with HER2/ErbB2 overexpressing or amplified operable breast cancer randomised to lapatinib followed by lapatinib plus paclitaxel versus trastuzumab followed by trastuzumab plus paclitaxel versus lapatinib in combination with trastuzumab followed by lapatinib, trastuzumab plus paclitaxel.

NCT ID: NCT00553267 Completed - Hypertension Clinical Trials

Telmisartan/Amlodipine (80/10) vs. Telmisartan/Amlodipine (40/10) vs. amlodipine10 in Resistant Hypertension

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

The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate that the fixed dose combination of telmisartan 40mg + amlodipine 10mg (T40/A10) or the fixed dose combination of telmisartan 80mg + amlodipine 10mg (T80/A10) is superior in reducing blood pressure at eight weeks compared with amlodipine 10mg monotherapy (A10) in patients who fail to respond to six weeks treatment with A10.
