There are about 2143 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Slovakia. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
This study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy profile, in two different dose regimens of Edoxaban (DU-176b), (an investigational new drug being tested for the prevention of stroke/systemic embolic events (SEE)), in individuals with atrial fibrillation. Patients will be randomized to one of three treatment groups: High Dose Regimen, Low Dose Regimen, & Warfarin. The expected duration of the study is 24 months.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of combination aliskiren/amlodipine in patients with hypertension not adequately controlled with amlodipine alone.
A major factor in the respiratory health of cystic fibrosis (CF) subjects is acquisition of chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. The infection rate with P. aeruginosa increases with age and by age 18 years, 80% of CF subjects in the U.S. are infected. Liposomal Amikacin for Inhalation (Arikace™) is a sterile aqueous liposomal suspension consisting of amikacin sulfate encapsulated in liposomes. This formulation of amikacin maximizes the achievable dose and delivery to the lungs of subjects infected via a nebulizer. Because liposome particles are small enough to penetrate and diffuse through sputum into the bacterial biofilm, they deposit drug in close proximity to the bacterial colonies, thus improving the bioavailability of amikacin at the infection site. The clinically achievable doses of amikacin in the LAI formulation can effectively increase the half-life of the drug in the lungs, and decrease the potential for systemic toxicity. LAI offers several advantages over current therapies in treating CF subjects with chronic infection caused by P. aeruginosa.
This study will assess the efficacy of an aliskiren based treatment regimen in reaching blood pressure (BP) target in patients with mild to moderate hypertension. (defined as mean sitting Systolic Blood Pressure [msSBP] ≥ 140 mmHg and < 180 mmHg and/or mean sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure [msDBP] ≥ 90 and <110 mmHg).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefits and risks of lixisenatide (AVE0010), in comparison to placebo, as an add-on treatment to metformin, over a period of 24 weeks of treatment, followed by an extension. The primary objective is to assess the effects of lixisenatide when added to metformin on glycemic control in terms of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reduction when it is used in two steps dose titration regimen at Week 24. Secondary objectives are to assess the effects of lixisenatide when added to metformin on glycemic control in comparison to placebo in terms of HbA1c reduction when it is used in a one-step dose titration regimen, the percentage of patients with HbA1c less than 7 percent or less than or equal to 6.5%, body weight, fasting plasma glucose (FPG); to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and anti-lixisenatide antibody development.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of TAK-783, once daily (QD), taken in combination with methotrexate in subjects with rheumatoid arthritis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of azilsartan medoxomil, once daily (QD), compared to ramipril for treating Essential Hypertension.
The primary aim of this study is to investigate the tolerability and safety of AZD 1236 compared with placebo ("inactive substance") in COPD patients by assessment of Adverse Events, vital signs and laboratory safety assessments.
This 4 arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of taspoglutide compared to sitagliptin and placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with metformin. Patients will be randomized to receive taspoglutide (10mg once weekly or 10mg once weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg once weekly), sitagliptin 100mg once daily or placebo, in a ratio of 2:2:2:1, in addition to their continued prestudy metformin treatment. After 24 weeks of treatment, patients on active treatment will continue on the same treatment and patients on placebo will be switched to taspoglutide 10mg once weekly or taspoglutide 20mg once weekly (after 4 weeks of taspoglutide 10mg once weekly). The anticipated time on study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the effect of two doses of Teriflunomide, in comparison to placebo, on the frequency of multiple sclerosis (MS) relapses in patients with relapsing MS. Key secondary objective is to assess the effect of the two doses of teriflunomide, in comparison to placebo, on disability progression. Other secondary objectives are: - To assess the effect of the two doses of teriflunomide in comparison to placebo on: - Fatigue; - Health-related quality of life, a measure of the impact of the patient's health on his or her overall well being. - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of teriflunomide.
