Filter by:Multicenter Clinical Trial, experimental, randomized and prospective study to determine the effectiveness of two protocols addressing the Corporal Decolonization in patients colonized by Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA). PRIMARY END POINT The aim of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of the protocol Prontoderm® in the decolonization of MRSA patients, compared with the protocol of the "Consensus Document and GEIH-SEIMC SEMPSPH" (see attached extract from the document, Annex 7). Prontoderm ® is a Class III Medical Device with CE mark owned by B.BRAUN Medical SA, and currently available in Spain for the same indications proposed in this trial.
The investigators would like to learn more about the metabolic consequences of pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1a in children, adolescents and adults with this condition. People with pseudohypoparathyroidism 1a are at risk for development of obesity. To better understand the cause of overweight or obesity, investigators are measuring body composition and resting energy expenditure (REE), which is the amount of calories burned while completely at rest. The investigators also want to determine the amount of body fat.
Proximal forearm fractures comprise approximately 5% of all fractures, with olecranon fractures accounting for almost 20% of thes fractures. There is limited conclusive evidence regarding the optimal treatment and outcome of these fractures within the elderly population with one case series in the literature describing 13 patients. Our trial includes all patients equal to or over the age of 75yrs presenting to the Edinburgh and Fife Orthopaedic Trauma Units with an isolated olecranon fracture. Patients who consent to enrol in the trial will be randomised to operative fixation using one of two treatment methods. Patients in the nonoperative group will be place in a sling for two weeks and then allowed to mobilise under supervised physiotherapy as per normal protocol. For those patients in the operative group, tension band wire of plate fixation will be employed depending on the choice of their supervising consultant. Patients will be evaluated over a one year period following their treatment.
This phase II trial studies how well giving ofatumumab together with bortezomib works in treating patients with relapsed diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), or mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Monoclonal antibodies, such as ofatumumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving ofatumumab together with bortezomib may help kill more cancer cells
The aim of the study is to delineate and compare the changes in coupled mechanical properties of left ventricle and arterial vascular bed caused by two popular anesthetic protocols commonly used in cardiac surgery (intravenous, based on the infusion of propofol, versus inhalational, based on isoflurane) on different stages of the surgery.
RATIONALE: Since lapatinib inhibits both EGFR and HER2 receptors, it is an attractive agent for the treatment of esophageal and GEJ tumors. PURPOSE: Lapatinib is currently approved for HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer in combination with capecitabine or letrozole. It is hoped that by giving lapatinib and carboplatin and paclitaxel together, their combined effects will further slow or stop the cancer cells from growing.
This phase II trial studies how well giving pazopanib hydrochloride and anastrozole before surgery works in treating patients with stage II-III estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer. Pazopanib hydrochloride and anastrozole may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving pazopanib hydrochloride and anastrozole together before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal cells that have to be removed
To compare the progression free survival of LY2510924 plus sunitinib therapy versus sunitinib in the first-line setting for patients with metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to use data from the Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) to determine the degree of variation in glucose levels of individuals with an eating disorder and type 1 diabetes and only an eating disorder.
The AC-052-391-study is a phase 3 study to investigate whether adding bosentan to inhaled nitric oxide in newborns with persistent pulmonary hypertension of newborns (PPHN) is a supporting and safe therapy and to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of bosentan and its metabolites.
