Filter by:The conventional glucocorticoid replacement therapy in congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) renders the cortisol levels unphysiological, which may cause symptoms and long-term complications. Glucocorticoid replacement is technically feasible by continuous subcutaneous hydrocortisone infusion (CSHI), and can mimic the normal diurnal cortisol rhythm. This method was recently applied to treat a patient through a critical phase of puberty. This is a clinical trial aiming to evaluate CSHI treatment in patients with CAH. The main objective is to determine the effects of CSHI on metabolic parameters (androstenedione and 17-hydroxyprogesterone profiles, and testosterone,adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH), cortisol, and bone markers), and to determine the required glucocorticoid doses. Secondary objectives are to determine effects on clinical status, body weight, blood pressure and other metabolic parameters, as well as on subjective health status (AddiQoL, SF36).
This retrospective cohort study will assess the association of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) treatment (5-alpha reductase inhibitors (5ARI) and alpha-blocker medications) with the occurrence of prostate cancer related mortality. This study will also assess a number of secondary endpoints including prostate cancer mortality or metastatic prostate cancer, and all cause mortality.
The purpose of this study is to confirm in a larger population in Europe the effectiveness and safety observed with silodosin in previous clinical trials.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate superiority of the solifenacin succinate (treatment) over the placebo (control) based on the change from the baseline in the mean number of urgency episodes per 24 hours after 2 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of alpha-blocker monotherapy and alpha-blocker + 5-alpha reductase inhibitor combination therapy in benign prostate hyperplasia patients, and suggest guidelines of the combination therapy.
The purpose of this study is to gather safety and effectiveness information about a new formulation of Hydrocortisone (Chronocort®) used to treat patients with a disease called congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Hydrocortisone is the man-made version of the hormone cortisol, which is released in the body following a regular daily pattern. The objective of the study is to measure the levels of hydrocortisone that are absorbed into the bloodstream once Chronocort® is taken and what affects it has on other hormones in the body. Since Chronocort® is anticipated to mimic the same release pattern of cortisol in the body, it is hoped that patients with CAH will be treated more effectively to manage their disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine if screening colonoscopy performed on adults with the water exchange method, as opposed to the air method, will have a higher adenoma detection rate.
The purpose of this study is: - To assess safety of Afalaza drug within 12 months in patients with symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and risk of progression. - To assess efficacy of Afalaza drug within 12 months in patients with symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia and risk of progression.
Currently the standard treatment for early stage endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia with atypia is a total hysterectomy (an operation to remove the uterus) and removal of both ovaries. While highly effective, this surgery carries significant side effects for: - young women who still wish to have children and would lose fertility; and - women with one or more disorders (or diseases) in addition to the early stage endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia with atypia and/or morbid obesity who are at risk for surgical complications making surgery unsafe. This study will access a new approach to the treatment of endometrial cancer to spare women of having to undergo major surgery that may be unwanted or unnecessary. Mirena is approved in Australia for contraception, to treat heavy bleeding, and to prevent thickening of the lining of the uterus (endometrial hyperplasia) during oestrogen replacement therapy (HRT). However it is not approved to treat early stage endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia with atypia. This research project will test to see if Mirena is an effective treatment for early stage endometrial cancer and endometrial hyperplasia with atypia. Metformin is approved in Australia to treat Diabetes. However it is not approved to treat early stage endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia with atypia. Therefore, it is an experimental treatment for early stage endometrial cancer and endometrial hyperplasia with atypia. This means that it must be tested to see if it is an effective treatment for early stage endometrial cancer and endometrial hyperplasia with atypia. Weight loss interventions are feasible and safe, and already being implemented by gynaecologic oncologist to make women eligible for surgery. Weight loss of 7% body weight induces a large biological effect (for example reduces incidence of diabetes by 58%, and hypertension by 26%).
The purpose of this study is to see if metformin will be effective in making endometrial hyperplasia without atypia better by returning the tissue to a normal state.
