NCT ID: NCT00206141 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Seroquel in Bipolar Depression Versus Lithium

Start date: August 2005
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study is being carried out to see if quetiapine fumarate (Seroquel) is effective in treating bipolar depression during an 8-week acute phase compared with placebo and lithium, followed by continuation treatment for 26 up to 52 with quetiapine fumarate (Seroquel) compared to placebo.

NCT ID: NCT00206115 Completed - Clinical trials for Schizophrenic Disorder

SR-Registration Study 1, ROW: Efficacy and Safety of Seroquel® in the Treatment of Patients With Schizophrenia

Start date: November 2004
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this 6-week study is to determine whether treatment with Seroquel® Sustained Release (SR) is more effective than placebo in the treatment of acute schizophrenia. PLEASE NOTE: Seroquel SR and Seroquel XR refer to the same formulation. The SR designation was changed to XR after consultation with FDA.

NCT ID: NCT00170209 Completed - Clinical trials for Latent Tuberculosis Infection

Rifampin Versus Isoniazid for the Treatment of Latent Tuberculosis Infection in Children (P4v9)

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

Tuberculosis (TB) is spread by airborne transmission from adults with active contiguous TB to children, especially those living in the same household. Once children are exposed and infected they are at very high risk to develop active TB - which can be lethal if not detected and treated promptly. This makes it very important to detect TB infection as soon as possible, and treat this while it is still latent or dormant. Current therapy for latent TB infection is 9 months of Isoniazid; this is very effective if taken properly but because treatment is so long many children do not finish this. Four months of Rifampin is a recommended alternative. In adults this has been shown to be safer with much higher completion rates. However the effectiveness of this treatment is unclear, and is being studied in an ongoing study. The investigators plan to compare the safety as well as the acceptability and effectiveness of 4 months Rifampin with 9 months Isoniazid (standard treatment) in children in several sites in Canada and other countries. It is hypothesized that among children at high risk for development of active TB, intolerance/adverse events will not be worse (non-inferiority), among those randomized to 4RIF compared to those randomized to 9INH. In addition completion of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) therapy will be significantly greater (superiority), and subsequent rates of active TB will not be significantly higher (non-inferiority) in children taking 4RIF.

NCT ID: NCT00157885 Completed - Malaria, Falciparum Clinical Trials

A Randomised Trial of Artekin and Artesunate & Amodiaquine for Uncomplicated Malaria in Timika, Papua, Indonesia.

Start date: July 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The primary aim of the comparative trial is to assess the relative safety and efficacy of two artemisinin containing regimens: amodiaquine plus artesunate (AAQ) and artekin both administered once daily for 3 days.

NCT ID: NCT00157859 Completed - Vivax Malaria Clinical Trials

To Evaluate Current Efficacy of Antimalarials Used in Timika, Papua, Indonesia

Start date: April 2004
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Multidrug resistant strains of P.falciparum and P.vivax are becoming increasingly prevalent in the Asia Pacific rim. To determine the efficacy of locally recommended antimalarial protocols in Papua, Indonesia, consecutive patients presenting to a rural clinic were enrolled into a prospective efficacy study. Patients with uncomplicated falciparum malaria were treated with chloroquine plus sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine and those with vivax malaria with chloroquine monotherapy. Patients failing therapy received unsupervised oral quinine +/- doxycycline for 7 days. Follow-up was continued for 42 days for falciparum malaria and 28 days for vivax malaria. The study hypothesis was that current recommended antimalarial protocols were no longer effective.

NCT ID: NCT00157833 Completed - Vivax Malaria Clinical Trials

A Randomized Trial of Coartemether and Artekin for the Treatment of Uncomplicated Malaria in Papua, Indonesia.

Start date: July 2004
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This open randomized, parallel group, 6 week trial in two rural outpatient clinics will compare the safety and efficacy of a six dose coartemether regimen with 3 dose artekin regimen for the treatment of acute, uncomplicated falciparum and vivax malaria in adults and children (>10kg).

NCT ID: NCT00156078 Completed - Clinical trials for Diabetic Neuropathy, Painful

A Study To Evaluate Pregabalin In Patients With Painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN)

Start date: January 2005
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

A study of pregabalin efficacy and safety in a racially and culturally diverse group of subjects with painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN).

NCT ID: NCT00147368 Completed - Malaria, Falciparum Clinical Trials

Arginine Malaria Trial: Study of Adjunctive Arginine in Falciparum Malaria

Start date: February 2005
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Acute falciparum malaria is associated with low plasma arginine and impaired nitric oxide (NO) production. Both are associated with poor outcome. This study will examine the safety and effect of escalating doses of arginine in falciparum malaria. It will determine whether arginine can increase NO production and have an effect on NO-dependent physiological measurements. The hypothesis is that arginine: will be safe in falciparum malaria; will return plasma arginine concentration to normal/supranormal levels; will increase systemic and exhaled NO; reduces oxidant stress; and improves a number of NO-dependent physiological measures of relevance to malaria.

GEMINI-AALA
Start date: May 2004
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the study is to measure the effect of the amlodipine/atorvastatin combination pill in reducing both elevated blood pressure and cholesterol levels to levels suggested by guidelines
