The purpose of this study is to compare health-related costs and asthma control in ordinary clinical practice during 12 months for Symbicort® given as a low maintenance dose plus as needed compared to a free combination of Pulmicortâ and Oxis® plus Bricanyl® as needed, and Symbicort fixed dosing plus Bricanyl as needed in asthmatic patients not adequately controlled on inhaled glucocorticosteroids alone.
RATIONALE: Collecting information on how craniopharyngioma is diagnosed and treated may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment. It may also help identify the intermediate- and long-term effects of treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is collecting information on diagnosis, treatment, and quality of life of young patients who are undergoing surgery for craniopharyngioma.
This is a Phase 3, multi-national, open-label, 2-arm randomized study in patients with surgically incurable metastatic melanoma who have received no prior chemotherapy, or biochemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic disease. The primary objective of this trial is to compare overall survival for patients with advanced melanoma who are randomized to receive CP-675,206 with that of patients who are randomized to receive either dacarbazine or temozolomide (investigator choice)
This study is designed to compare a range of doses of GW856553 versus placebo on the biomarkers associated with rheumatoid arthritis
A study to investigate ropinirole for treatment of the symptoms of fibromyalgia and in particular the widespread pain associated with this condition. A total 160 subjects (80 per treatment arm) are being recruited from approximately 25 centres in 9 European countries. Male and female subjects greater than 18 years of age with a diagnosis of primary fibromyalgia, as defined by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria, are eligible for study entry. Subjects will receive either ropinirole (1-24mg) or placebo, depending upon a statistically defined allocation to treatment. The primary endpoint is improvement in pain score by 12 weeks of treatment. An 11 point numerical rating scale for the assessment of the subject's pain is being collected on a daily diary. In addition, the overall improvement in quality of life for the subject will be assessed by means of a number of subject-completed questionnaires during the treatment period. Safety of the treatment regimen will be assessed throughout the study.
The purpose of this study is to learn if Belatacept can provide protection from organ rejection following kidney transplantation while avoiding some of the toxic effects of standard immunosuppressive medications such as kidney damage. Effects on kidney function and patient survival as well as drug safety will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to study gastritis, GI symptoms during long term omeprazole treatment
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of anastrozole monotherapy versus maximal oestrogen blockade with combinated therapy of fulvestrant and anastrozole compared with in treatment of hormone receptor positive women with first relapse of breast cancer.
The study aims at identifying the predictive markers after one month of Saizen therapy in Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) and Turner Syndrome children.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known which schedule of docetaxel and prednisone is more effective in treating prostate cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying two different schedules of docetaxel and prednisone to compare how well they work in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
