NCT ID: NCT00842530 Completed - Dengue Fever Clinical Trials

Efficacy and Safety of Dengue Vaccine in Healthy Children

Start date: February 2009
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of the study was to assess the efficacy of CYD dengue vaccine after three injections in preventing symptomatic virologically-confirmed dengue (VCD) cases, regardless of the severity, due to any of the four serotypes in children aged 4 to 11 years at the time of inclusion. Secondary objectives included to assess: - Vaccine efficacy against severe VCD cases - Vaccine efficacy against VCD cases following at least two injections with CYD dengue vaccine - Immune response to CYD dengue vaccine - Safety profile of CYD dengue vaccine. Safety assessments include solicited reactions within 7 or 14 days after each injection, unsolicited adverse events within 28 days after each injection, and serious adverse events during the study period. Other objectives included: - Vaccine efficacy against VCD cases following at least one injection with CYD dengue vaccine - Vaccine efficacy against VCD cases due to each serotype - Participants with clinical signs and symptoms for VCD

NCT ID: NCT00840502 Completed - Malaria Clinical Trials

Ultrasound Study in Pregnant Women With Malaria

UPS
Start date: February 10, 2009
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Most of the neonatal deaths that occur worldwide every year are associated with low birth weight (LBW), caused by intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and/or preterm delivery. Accurate assessment of fetal growth and gestational age for timely identification and management of growth restriction are therefore public health priorities, especially in developing countries where 98% of all neonatal deaths occur. Every year, more than 50 million women become pregnant in malaria endemic regions. Malaria infection at any time during pregnancy reduces birthweight. However, little is known about the relationship between the timing of infection during pregnancy and the extent of the impact on birth weight. The mechanisms by which malaria causes LBW also remain unclear. Reduced placental blood flow, placental changes, red blood cell changes, severe anaemia and pro-inflammatory cytokines have all been implicated. In this proposed, longitudinal, observational, minimal risk study, which will take place in SMRU antenatal clinics on the Thai-Burmese border, the effect of malaria infection during pregnancy on fetal growth will be determined. Women will be screened before 13+6 weeks of gestation and followed with regular ultrasound examinations during pregnancy. When a woman has a malaria infection an extra ultrasound scan will be done to measure growth retardation or placental blood flow changes. Bloodsamples will be taken to detect changes in red blood cell properties and putative markers of malaria infection. For this study the maximum amount of blood taken during pregnancy is 13 cc in an uninfected woman. For each malaria episode an additional 7 cc blood will be taken. After delivery a placenta and a cord sample will be taken to detect placental changes. The investigators aim to recruit four hundred pregnant women over the course of two years. This study involves minimal risk to participants as ultrasound examination is part of routine antenatal care in many countries in the world.

NCT ID: NCT00839800 Completed - Asthma Clinical Trials

Study to Investigate the Efficacy of Symbicort® SMART.

SAKURA
Start date: February 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of Symbicort SMART (Symbicort Turbuhaler 160/4.5μg, one inhalation twice daily plus as needed) with Symbicort Turbuhaler 160/4.5μg, one inhalation twice daily plus terbutaline Turbuhaler 0.4 mg as needed, as asthma therapy

NCT ID: NCT00830960 Completed - Clinical trials for Acute Coronary Syndrome

A Comparison of Antiplatelet Therapies in Asian Subjects With Acute Coronary Syndrome

Start date: February 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The study will compare the safety and efficacy of prasugrel, administered at different doses with clopidogrel in the treatment of Asian participants with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

NCT ID: NCT00828737 Completed - Renal Impairment Clinical Trials

Safety of Gadovist in Renally Impaired Patients

GRIP
Start date: December 2008
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Patients with moderate to severe renal impairment scheduled for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan and injection with a contrast agent, Gadovist, will be asked to participate. The administration of contrast agents that contain gadolinium such as Gadovist might increase a potential risk to develop a rare condition called nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) in patients with renal impairment. This study is to assess the potential risk to develop NSF in patients with renal impairment after the administration of Gadovist. Patients who are enrolled in this study will receive a Gadovist enhanced MRI scan which was prescribed by the referring doctor. After the MRI scan the patient will be included in a two year follow-up period to assess if signs or symptoms suggestive of NSF have appeared.

NCT ID: NCT00826163 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Innate Immune Responses in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Patients

Start date: January 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

We hypothesize that ongoing and more severe airway inflammation in COPD may result from the impairment in activation of innate immune response

NCT ID: NCT00824304 Completed - Cognitive Function Clinical Trials

Long-term Effects of Iron and Zinc Supplementation During Infancy on Cognitive Performance and Growth

FeZn_FU
Start date: July 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The hypotheses of this study are: 1. Compared to children who received a placebo, children who received iron or zinc or iron and zinc combined will perform better on cognitive tests and will have better growth status at ages 8 to 10 years. 2. Compared to children who received iron or zinc alone, children who received iron and zinc combined will perform differently on cognitive tests and will have different growth status at 8 ages 8 to 10 years 3. Compared to children who had poorer iron and zinc status or poorer growth status before and after supplementation during infancy, children who had better iron and zinc status or better growth status before and after supplementation during infancy will perform better on cognitive tests and will have better growth status at ages 8 to 10 years. 4. Compared to children who have lower iron and zinc status, poorer growth status, or low animal source intake at ages 8 to 10 years, children who have higher iron and zinc status, better growth status, or high animal source intake at ages 8 to 10 years will perform better on cognitive tests and will have better growth status.
