NCT ID: NCT01373216 Completed - Clinical trials for Coronary Artery Disease

Glucagon-like Peptide 1 Agonist Exenatide for Improved Glucose Control and Cardiac Function in Patients With Aortocoronary Bypass

Executive
Start date: June 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

GLP-1 has not only beneficial effects on glucose metabolism but also direct positive effects on cardiac function and metabolism in both experimental models and in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Clinical data on the effects of GLP-1 agonists on cardiac function and glucose control in patients undergoing cardiac surgery are not known. Based on the results of experimental studies there is a potential for exenatide to positively influence both cardiac function and glucose metabolism in cardiac surgery patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus. The primary endpoint of this study is to examine whether pre- and peri-operative administration of exenatide affects perioperative hemodynamics, echocardiographic parameters, necessity of antiarrhythmic and inotropic treatment and glucose control in patients with coronary atherosclerosis and decreased left ventricular function undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting operation (CABG). In addition, safety and tolerability of peri-operative administration of exenatide in these patients will be examined as a secondary study objective.

NCT ID: NCT01370356 Completed - Smoking Cessation Clinical Trials

A Study To Evaluate The Efficacy And Safety Of Varenicline Compared To Placebo For Smoking Cessation Through Reduction

Start date: July 2011
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This study will determine whether varenicline is safe and helps people to quit smoking through reduction when they are not willing/able to make an abrupt quit attempt.

NCT ID: NCT01370005 Completed - Hypertension Clinical Trials

12 Week Efficacy and Safety Study of Empagliflozin (BI 10773) in Hypertensive Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Start date: June 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This trial will evaluate safety and efficacy of BI 10773 in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes. Since hyperglycaemia and hypertension are key risk factors for both micro- and macrovascular complications, assessment of both glucose and blood pressure lowering effects of BI 10773 in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes could provide clinically highly relevant, new information for the use of BI 10773

NCT ID: NCT01369329 Completed - Crohn's Disease Clinical Trials

A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Ustekinumab in Patients With Moderately to Severely Active Crohn's Disease Who Have Failed or Are Intolerant to Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) Antagonist Therapy (UNITI-1)

Start date: July 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study (UNITI-1) will compare the effects (both positive and negative) of an initial treatment with ustekinumab to placebo over 8 weeks, in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who have either failed or could not tolerate at least one TNF-antagonist medications in the past (specifically, infliximab, adalimumab, or certolizumab pegol).

NCT ID: NCT01366131 Completed - Clinical trials for Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of MEGF0444A in Combination With Carboplatin, Paclitaxel and Bevacizumab in Patients With Advanced or Recurrent Non-Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Who Have Not Received Prior Chemotherapy for Advanced Disease (NILE)

Start date: June 2011
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a Phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MEGF0444A combined with paclitaxel + carboplatin + bevacizumab therapy in patients with histologically or cytologically documented inoperable, locally advanced, metastatic (Stage IV), or recurrent non-squamous NSCLC.

NCT ID: NCT01361581 Recruiting - Critical Illness Clinical Trials

Metabolic Aspects of Citrate Anticoagulation in Renal Replacement Therapy

Citrate
Start date: January 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Citrate anticoagulation is associated with metabolic side effects which are linked to a portion of citrate reaching systemic circulation. Data on significance of systemic gain of citrate and its relationship to method configuration are missing. Patient might also receive certain dose of lactate as a buffer and a dose of glucose if acid-citrate-dextrose solution is used. The authors test variable methods of indirect estimate of systemic dose of citrate which would allow to quantify the metabolic input without mostly unavailable measurements of citrate levels.

NCT ID: NCT01358357 Completed - Bipolar I Disorder Clinical Trials

Bipolar Maintenance Study of Lurasidone Adjunctive to Lithium or Divalproex

PERSIST
Start date: June 2011
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, flexible-dose, parallel-group study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lurasidone (in combination with lithium or divalproex) for the maintenance treatment of bipolar I disorder in subjects with or without rapid cycling and /or psychotic features.

NCT ID: NCT01353820 Completed - Clinical trials for Hypercholesterolemia

Effects of Lactobacillus Delbruckii Lactis DN111244 Fermented Milk Consumption on Plasma Lipids Levels in Hypercholesterolaemic Adults

Start date: September 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of Lactobacillus Delbruckii lactis (DN111244) fermented milk consumption on relative change of plasma LDL-cholesterol concentration in hypercholesterolaemic adults after 8 weeks of product consumption versus control product.

NCT ID: NCT01353586 Completed - Clinical trials for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation

REVOLUTION (WFCC-133) - Treatment of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation

REVOLUTION
Start date: March 2011
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Circular and Crescent Mapping and Ablation catheters and the workflow of the Multi-Electrode Irrigated Pulmonary Vein Isolation System when used for the treatment of drug refractory symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF).

NCT ID: NCT01352793 Completed - Clinical trials for Meningitis, Meningococcal

A Global Phase 3 Safety Study of 120 mcg rLP2086 Vaccine in Adolescents and Young Adults Aged 10 to 25 Years

Start date: November 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

A multicenter phase 3 safety trial in which 5,700 subjects will be assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive 120 μg rLP2086 vaccine in a 0, 2, 6 month schedule or control. The control group will receive HAVRIX vaccine at month 0 and 6 and saline at month 2. All subjects will be followed for 6 months after the last vaccination to assess safety and tolerability.
