There are about 4372 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Greece. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the benefit of the immunotherapeutic product GSK1572932A when given to patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, after removal of their tumor. A course of 13 injections will be administered over 27 months. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
This trial will compare the efficacy of sequential administration of Docetaxel, Carboplatin and Herceptin versus the administration of Vinorelbine and Herceptin combination as first line treatment in HER-2 positive patients with metastatic breast cancer.
Hemodialysis patients with low bone density (total hip T-score <-2.5) will be assigned to receive teriparatide (those with histologic confirmation of adynamic bone disease) or ibandronate (subjects with increased osteoclast number on bone biopsy). Follow-up period: one year. A second bone biopsy at the end of the study.
The 1st phase of the study will assess the acute biochemical response of PTH, calcium and phosphorus to orally administered doses of cinacalcet once (60mg) or twice (30mg x 2) per day. The 2nd phase of the study designed to evaluate the long term effects of cinacalcet on BMD (bone mineral density)and the levels of PTH, calcium, phosphorus as well as its ability to control secondary hyperparathyroidism without simultaneous administration of other vitamin D compounds.
This trial will compare the efficacy of the docetaxel and gemcitabine combination versus monotherapy with gemcitabine as first-line treatment in elderly patients with advanced NSCLC
The optimal treatment for pretreated patients with metastatic breast cancer has not been established. Gemcitabine and capecitabine are two active agents in this setting. For women with Her-2 positive breast cancer, combinations of either gemcitabine or capecitabine (Xeloda) plus Herceptin has been proved active and well tolerated.
This study is for patients with ErbB2 overexpressing breast cancer that has spread to the brain and is still progressing there even after radiation treatment using WBRT (whole brain radiotherapy) or SRS (stereotactic radiosurgery) to the brain. The study will determine how safe and effective lapatinib is when given in combination with capecitabine to treat patients with ErbB2 overexpressing breast cancer that has spread to the brain. Lapatinib is an oral drug that will be taken every day. Tests for safety and efficacy will be performed regularly during the course of the study.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether the probability of pregnancy is dependent on the duration of GnRH agonist downregulation in IVF cycles.
DOXORUBICIN is recognized as one of the most active drugs for breast cancer, but its clinical utility is limited because of a cumulative dose-dependent cardiac myopathy that can lead to potentially fatal congestive heart failure. Caelyx (pegylated liposomal doxorubicin) was designed to reduce the cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin while preserving its antitumor efficacy
The combination of chemotherapy with radiotherapy remains the standard of therapy for patients with stage III NSCLC. A recent phase II study has presented encouraging data regarding the administration of docetaxel as consolidation treatment after definitive concurrent chemo-radiotherapy.
