Filter by:The aim of this study is to compare immunosuppression protocol of tacrolimus + MMF with that of tacrolimus + steroid for preventing recurrence of hepatitis C after living donor liver transplantation.
The purpose of this 7- to 13-month study is to determine the efficacy of 8 mg/day oral perindopril to prevent the recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with essential hypertension.
The purpose of the study is to assess the overall survival and progression free survival of patients treated with Litx™ + chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in the treatment of Colorectal Cancer with recurrent liver metastases, and to demonstrate the safety of Litx™ therapy. Litx™ consists of a light-activated drug, talaporfin sodium (LS11, Light Sciences Oncology, Bellevue, Washington), and a light generating device, composed of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), that is energized by a power controller and percutaneously placed in the target tumor tissue inside the body.
Cardiac rehabilitation programmes are a proven treatment for individuals with recent myocardial infarction, resulting in reduced morbidity and mortality compared to usual care. Unfortunately, following completion of a cardiac rehabilitation programme, risk factors and lifestyle behaviours may deteriorate. The GOSPEL study investigates the benefits of a programme of continued educational and behavioural intervention to achieve optimal long-term secondary prevention goals.
In this multi-center trial, Stage 1-3 patients having mastectomies or isolated lumpectomy with axillary node dissection will be randomly assigned to thoracic epidural or paravertebral anesthesia/analgesia, or to general anesthesia and morphine analgesia. Participants will be followed for up to 10 years to determine the rate of cancer recurrence or metastasis.
This phase II trial is studying how well VEGF Trap works in treating patients with previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer. VEGF Trap may stop the growth of colorectal cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
The purpose of the study is to compare time to progression and overall survival after treatment with Taxotere plus cisplatin versus cisplatin plus 5-FU (PF treatment group) in the first line treatment of patients with recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
Palliative radiotherapy for head and neck cancer is widely used but the effect and side effects are largely unknown. We will study the effect of short hypofractionated palliative radiotherapy (20 Gy in 4 fractions) on symptom intensity and -frequency as weel as side effects
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of serum hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level on intrahepatic recurrence in locally treatable hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) related with HBV.
To study the effectiveness of sertraline (Zoloft) in treating depression in adults with diabetes. The study will also determine whether depressed diabetic patients who have successfully responded to sertraline (Zoloft) are more likely to have depression recur if the sertraline (Zoloft) is discontinued.
