NCT ID: NCT00109408 Completed - Clinical trials for Rheumatoid Arthritis

A Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Tocilizumab in Patients With Active Rheumatoid Arthritis

Start date: July 2005
Phase: Phase 3

Patients will be randomized to receive tocilizumab 8mg/kg iv every 4 weeks plus placebo po weekly, or methotrexate 7.5-20mg po weekly plus placebo iv every 4 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.

NCT ID: NCT00102739 Completed - Clinical trials for Purpura, Thrombocytopaenic, Idiopathic

SB-497115 (Oral Thrombopoietin Receptor Agonist) Versus Placebo In Adults With Refractory Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP)

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

This study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group, repeat-dose, study conducted in two parts (Part A and Part B) examining 30, 50, and 75 mg doses of SB-497115-GR as a treatment for patients with ITP who have failed prior therapy. The study is designed to determine the proportion of patients with a platelet count =50,000/µL after 42 days. In Part B, 99 newly-recruited subjects will be randomized to one of two dosing arms in a 2:1 ratio of active:placebo. During the 6 week study period, subjects will start on placebo or active drug (50 mg) and may have a dose increase to 75 mg based upon their platelet count at day 22.

NCT ID: NCT00099502 Completed - Clinical trials for Multiple Sclerosis, Relapsing-Remitting

BEYOND: Betaferon/Betaseron Efficacy Yielding Outcomes of a New Dose in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Patients

Start date: November 2003
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine - whether treatment with Betaferon / Betaseron (interferon beta-1b) 500 micrograms safe, tolerable and more efficacious than treatment with interferon beta-1b 250 micrograms - whether treatment with Betaferon / Betaseron (interferon beta-1b) tolerable and more efficacious than treatment with Copaxone (Glatiramer Acetate) 20 mg

NCT ID: NCT00089986 Completed - Sepsis Clinical Trials

GR270773 In The Treatment Of Suspected Or Confirmed Gram-Negative Severe Sepsis In Adults

Start date: September 2004
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective is to estimate the size of the GR270773 treatment effect on 28-day all-cause mortality for two doses of GR270773 versus placebo in adult subjects with suspected or confirmed Gram-negative severe sepsis. GR270773 will be administered as a three-day continuous intravenous infusion.

NCT ID: NCT00082407 Completed - Clinical trials for Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Exenatide Compared With Twice-Daily Biphasic Insulin Aspart in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Using Sulfonylurea and Metformin

Start date: November 2003
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label, comparator-controlled trial comparing the effect of exenatide twice daily to twice daily biphasic insulin aspart on glycemic control, as measured by hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c).

NCT ID: NCT00081796 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Breast Cancer Trial of RPR109881 Versus Capecitabine in Male or Female Patients With Advanced Breast Cancer

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

The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine if RPR109881 is a better treatment than capecitabine (Xeloda) for advanced breast cancer in patients that no longer benefit from docetaxel and/or paclitaxel.

NCT ID: NCT00076388 Completed - Clinical trials for Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma

Iressa Versus Docetaxel (Taxotere)

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

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of ZD1839 or docetaxel in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has recurred or progressed after receiving prior treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy.

NCT ID: NCT00072293 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Surgical Resection With or Without Axillary Lymph Node Dissection in Treating Women With Node-Negative Breast Cancer and Sentinel Lymph Node Micrometastases

23-01
Start date: December 2001
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

RATIONALE: Surgery to remove lymph nodes in the armpit in patients with sentinel lymph node micrometastases may remove cancer cells that have spread from tumors in the breast. It is not yet known whether surgery to remove the primary tumor is more effective with or without axillary lymph node dissection. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying surgery and axillary lymph node dissection to see how well they work compared to surgery alone in treating women with node-negative breast cancer and sentinel lymph node micrometastases.

NCT ID: NCT00069108 Completed - Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trials

A Study of Xeloda (Capecitabine) in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Start date: July 2003
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This 2 arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of intermittent oral Xeloda, or iv fluorouracil/leucovorin, in combination with intravenous Eloxatin (oxaliplatin) in patients previously treated for metastatic colorectal cancer. Patients will be randomized to receive either 1)XELOX (Xeloda 1000mg/m2 po bid on days 1-15 + oxaliplatin) in 3 week cycles or 2) FOLFOX-4 (oxaliplatin + leucovorin + 5-FU in 2 week cycles. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.

NCT ID: NCT00066703 Active, not recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Triptorelin With Either Exemestane or Tamoxifen in Treating Premenopausal Women With Hormone-Responsive Breast Cancer

TEXT
Start date: November 3, 2003
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using triptorelin, exemestane, and tamoxifen may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen. It is not yet known whether giving triptorelin together with exemestane is more effective than triptorelin and tamoxifen in treating hormone-responsive breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying triptorelin and exemestane to see how well they work compared to triptorelin and tamoxifen in treating premenopausal women with hormone-responsive breast cancer.
