NCT ID: NCT00773513 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Renal Anemia

A Study to Assess All-Cause Mortality and Cardiovascular Morbidity in Participants With Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) on Dialysis and Those Not on Renal Replacement Therapy Receiving Methoxy Polyethylene Glycol-Epoetin Beta (Mircera) or Reference Erythropoietin Stimulating Agents (ESAs)

Start date: December 12, 2008
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This 2 arm safety study will compare the outcome with respect to a composite endpoint of all-cause mortality and non-fatal cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, stroke) in CKD participants either on dialysis or not receiving renal replacement therapy under treatment with methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta or reference ESAs. Participants will be randomized to receive intravenous (iv) or subcutaneous (sc) methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta at the following doses: for participants not already receiving ESA treatment, methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta will be administered at a starting dose of 0.6 micrograms per kilograms every 2 weeks (mcg/kg/2wks) iv or sc; for participants receiving maintenance ESA treatment, iv or sc methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta will be administered at an initial monthly dose of 120, 200 or 360 micrograms (mcg) depending on the weekly dose of ESA received prior to first methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta administration. Participants randomized to reference ESA treatment will receive iv or sc ESAs in accordance with their prescribed dosing information.

NCT ID: NCT00770744 Completed - Schizophrenia Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Lu 31-130 in Patients With Schizophrenia

Start date: September 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The main purpose with the study is to explore the efficacy and safety of Lu 31-130 in patients suffering from schizophrenia compared to a standard antipsychotic drug.

NCT ID: NCT00765024 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Strongyloidiasis

Ivermectin Versus Albendazole for Chronic Strongyloidiasis

Start date: July 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

A prospective controlled trial to compare the efficacy and safety of 7-day albendazole, single dose ivermectin, and 2-single dose ivermectin in 72 patients with chronic strongyloidiasis will be conducted at Siriraj Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand.

NCT ID: NCT00764881 Completed - Contraception Clinical Trials

Effects of SH T00658ID on Libido

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

The aim of the study is to investigate whether women on oral contraceptives (OCs) suffering from acquired OC-associated female sexual dysfunction (FSD) for at least 3 months but no longer than one year will express the same level of sexual distress when taking SH T00658ID compared to Microgynon, the usual OC prescribed for women with OC-associated FSD.

NCT ID: NCT00764790 Completed - Influenza Clinical Trials

Immunogenicity and Safety of GSK Biologicals' Influenza Vaccine Versus a Licensed Comparator in Children

Start date: October 1, 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity and the safety of GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' seasonal influenza vaccine, Fluarix, compared to Fluzone (a US-licensed vaccine) in children, 6 to 35 months of age.

NCT ID: NCT00764621 Completed - Clinical trials for Colorectal Neoplasms

Health Economic Evaluation of Primovist-enhanced Liver MRI

Start date: October 2008
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Patients with a history of colorectal cancer and known or suspected liver metastases who are scheduled for contrast-enhanced tomographic imaging will be included in this study. After randomization to either Primovist-enhanced MRI, extracellular contrast media (ECCM)-enhanced MRI or contrast-enhanced (CE)-CT outcomes and resource needs of the diagnostic work-up and treatment will be evaluated for each of the three imaging modalities. Main objectives of the study are to assess the proportion of patients for whom further imaging is required to come to a therapy decision and to evaluate the proportion of patients with intraoperatively modified surgical plans after Primovist-enhanced MRI as compared to ECCM-enhanced MRI and CE-CT.

Development of Clinical Method to Triclosan Retention in Plaque Following Brushing

Start date: May 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The objective is to develop a method to determine active ingredient uptake in oral care products.

NCT ID: NCT00761332 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

Back Pain in Patients With Severe Osteoporosis

Start date: February 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of teriparatide versus therapies that decrease bone loss to prevent new or worsening back pain in patients with osteoporosis seen in clinical practice.

NCT ID: NCT00759200 Completed - Chronic Hepatitis C Clinical Trials

Safety and Efficacy of Albumin Interferon Administered Every 4 Weeks in Genotype 2/3 Hepatitis C Patients

Start date: October 2008

NCT ID: NCT00755287 Completed - Clinical trials for Diabetes Mellitus Type 2

A Study of the Safety, Tolerability and Effect on Glycemic Control of Taspoglutide Versus Insulin Glargine in Insulin Naive Type 2 Diabetic Patients Inadequately Controlled With Metformin Plus Sulphonylurea.

Start date: November 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This 3-arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of taspoglutide compared to insulin glargine in patients with insulin-naive type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with metformin and sulphonylurea combination therapy. Patients will be randomized to receive taspoglutide (10 mg once weekly, or 10mg once weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg once weekly) or insulin glargine (starting dose 10 IU/day) in a ratio of 1:1:1 in addition to continued prestudy metformin treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is 2+ years, and the target sample size if 500+ individuals.
