NCT ID: NCT00351468 Completed - Clinical trials for Purpura, Thrombocytopaenic, Idiopathic

EXTEND (Eltrombopag Extended Dosing Study)

EXTEND
Start date: June 2006
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

An open-label, dose-adjustment, extension study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of eltrombopag for the treatment of subjects with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) who have previously been enrolled in an eltrombopag trial. This study will allow adjustment of the eltrombopag dose to achieve an individualized dose and schedule for each subject. In addition, the ability to reduce the dose of concomitant ITP medications in the presence of eltrombopag, while maintaining platelet counts = 50,000/microL will be investigated.

NCT ID: NCT00348140 Completed - Alzheimer's Disease Clinical Trials

Rosiglitazone (Extended Release Tablets) As Adjunctive Therapy In Subjects With Mild To Moderate Alzheimer's Disease

REFLECT-3
Start date: July 2006
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Rosiglitazone (RSG) has been tested in clinical studies and is approved by the FDA as a treatment for type II diabetes mellitus, a disease that occurs when the body is unable to effectively use glucose. RSG XR, the investigational drug used in this study, is an extended-release form of RSG. This study tests whether RSG XR safely provides clinical benefit to people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD) when combined with one of the currently approved AD medications, Aricept®, Razadyne® or Exelon®. RSG XR is a new approach to AD therapy and this study tests a new way to treat AD by testing whether one's genetic makeup affects the response to the study drug. Clinical data suggesting that RSG may benefit AD patients was first seen in a small study performed at the University of Washington and then from a larger GSK study conducted in Europe and New Zealand. In the first study, subjects receiving RSG once daily for 6 months scored significantly better on 3 tests of memory and thought than those who did not receive RSG. In the GSK study, those that appeared to benefit most from treatment with RSG XR had a specific genetic pattern. They did not have the gene that caused them to produce the protein apolipoprotein E e4 (APOE e4). Subjects who have the APOE e4 gene may have two copies, one from each parent, or they may have only one APOE e4 gene meaning that they inherited either the APOE e2 or APOE e3 version of the gene, instead of APOE e4, from one of their parents. Subjects with one copy of the APOE e4 gene remained at their same level of thinking ability while those with two copies of the APOE e4 gene, continued to worsen during the 6-month treatment. The current study will more directly test the effectiveness or RSG XR on people who either have or lack the APOE e4 gene.

NCT ID: NCT00343486 Completed - Overactive Bladder Clinical Trials

Dose Ranging Study Of Solabegron Versus Placebo In Female Patients With Overactive Bladder Symptoms

Start date: May 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study will test the effectiveness and safety of two doses of solabegron against placebo in reducing the symptoms of overactive bladder.

NCT ID: NCT00340080 Completed - HIV Infection Clinical Trials

Clinical Utility Of Genetic Screening For HLA-B*5701, On Susceptibility To Abacavir Hypersensitivity

Start date: April 2006
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Study to evaluate the utility of prospective HLA-B*5701 screening on the incidence of abacavir hypersensitivity (ABC HSR) in 1800 previously ABC-naive adults with HIV-1 from Europe, Australia and other countries as applicable. The study has two (co-primary) objectives: i) to determine if screening for HLA-B*5701 prior to ABC-containing HAART results in a lower incidence of clinically-suspected HSR versus current standard of care (no genetic screening) and ii) to determine if screening for HLA-B*5701 prior to ABC-containing HAART, results in a significantly lower incidence of immunologically-confirmed HSR versus current standard of care (no genetic screening or patch testing). The study consists of up to a 28-day screening period, a randomised observation period (Day 1 through Week 6) and, for subjects experiencing a suspected ABC HSR and a subset of ABC-tolerant subjects, an epicutaneous patch test (EPT) assessment period. Eligible subjects will be randomised to one of two study arms: a Current Standard of Care Arm (no prospective genetic screening: Control) and a Genetic Screening Arm (prospective genetic screening). Subjects identified as HLA-B*5701 positive in the prospective Genetic Screening Arm will not receive ABC and will be excluded from further study. Subjects who experience suspected ABC HSR during the 6-week observation will be withdrawn from ABC-containing product and undergo EPT patch testing 6 weeks later.

NCT ID: NCT00338247 Approved for marketing - Neoplasms, Breast Clinical Trials

EAP (Expanded Access Protocol) Of Lapatinib Combined With Capecitabine In Metastatic Breast Cancer

Start date: July 2006
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Expanded Access

This study will provide pre-approval drug access to lapatinib, in combination with capecitabine, to patients whose breast cancer had progressed on other therapies

NCT ID: NCT00312208 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Docetaxel in Breast Cancer

Start date: November 2001
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Primary objective : - To compare disease-free survival after treatment with docetaxel in combination with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide to doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel in operable adjuvant breast cancer HER2neu negative patients with positive axillary lymph nodes. Secondary objectives : - To compare toxicity and quality of life between the 2 above-mentioned arms. - To evaluate pathologic and molecular markers for predicting efficacy.

NCT ID: NCT00312156 Completed - Diabetes Clinical Trials

Comparison of Efficacy and Safety of Insulin Detemir and NPH Insulin in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes

Start date: August 2002
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The trial is conducted in Europe and Middle East. The aim of the trial is to compare the use of Insulin Detemir once or twice daily combined with mealtime Insulin Aspart against that of NPH Insulin once or twice daily combined with mealtime Insulin Aspart. The trial involves children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes.

NCT ID: NCT00296010 Terminated - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Liposomal Doxorubicin Compared With Observation or Cyclophosphamide and Methotrexate in Treating Older Women Who Have Undergone Surgery for Breast Cancer

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

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as methotrexate, cyclophosphamide, and liposomal doxorubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving chemotherapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It is not yet known whether giving liposomal doxorubicin after surgery is more effective than observation or cyclophosphamide and methotrexate in treating breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying liposomal doxorubicin to see how well it works compared with observation or cyclophosphamide and methotrexate in treating older women who have undergone surgery for breast cancer.

Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

To determine if therapy with Zometa® (zoledronic acid) 4mg will be effective in preventing the occurrence of bone metastases in prostate cancer patients at high risk of developing them. In addition, pain and analgesic scores and overall safety are to be evaluated throughout the study.
