Filter by:A Double blinded (oral), Open Label, Study to Assess the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Oral PTH (1-34) in healthy Subjects to establish the safety, tolerability, bioavailability, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic profile and the of Entera's oral PTH(1 - 34) in adult healthy human volunteers.
Background: Medication reviews performed on admission to hospitals reduce medication errors; however, evidence of effect on morbidity and mortality is currently inconsistent. It is known that patients' risks of experiencing medication errors are dependent on both patient- and drug factors, e.g. age, co-morbidity, number of drugs, risk of side effects. Aim and hypothesis: The aim of this pilot study is to study acute medical patients' risk of getting a medication error based on an algorithm that takes into account both patient and drug related factors. Secondary, the investigators will explore whether our methods are applicable in a randomised controlled trial. The investigators will also decide the number of patients in a randomised controlled trial based on this pilot study. The hypothesis is that an algorithm that has already been developed can stratify patients according to their risk of experiencing a medication error. Methods: 100 acute admitted patients will be risk stratified at admission (>8 hours after). The patients who have highest risks of medication errors will receive a medication review performed by either a clinical pharmacist or a clinical pharmacologist.
Study Phase: Phase 1 Primary Objective: • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of single ascending oral doses of CARD-024 in healthy subjects Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of CARD-024 following ascending single oral doses of CARD-024 - To evaluate the effect of CARD-024 on cardiovascular indices including plasma renin activity (PRA) and blood pressure (BP), biological markers of activity, following ascending single oral doses of CARD-024
The results of phase I Namisol® study (Klumpers et al. Br J Clin Pharmacol, 2012), implicate that Namisol® may have a favorable PK and PD characteristics and is safe to use in people. However, the study included only young adults with a mean age of 21.4 years. In a previous THC study, subjects age has been associated with treatment response and tolerance of adverse reactions. This association was not supported by Lane et al. and Volicer et al. There is concern about the safety and tolerability of THC in the elderly population. This is because, elderly persons in general have higher risk of adverse drug reactions due to a combination of physiological factors such as decreasing in lean body mass, the reduction of renal and hepatic clearance, and medical comorbidity which can lead to polypharmacy and drug-drug interactions. Therefore, data from the phase I trial cannot be translated directly to an elderly (and likely more vulnerable) population. This makes it important to evaluate the safety and tolerability profiles of different Namisol® doses in the elderly. In our study in progress "Delta-THC in Behavioral Disturbances in Dementia", the Namisol® doses of 0,75 mg and 1,5 mg are, until now, well tolerated by elderly subjects. These doses are, however, very low in comparison with the doses used in phase I study with young adults (5 mg, 6,5 mg and 8 mg). The current study on the safety and tolerability of relatively high doses of Namisol® will help us in the future to provide broad advice on the therapeutic index and safety profile of Namisol® in the elderly population.
Primary - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of an intravenous (i.v.) infusion of PAT-SM6 in subjects with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Secondary - To evaluate the efficacy and pharmacodynamics by analysis of serum and urine M protein, serum free light chains (FLC) κFLC and λFLC, total immunoglobulins, β2-microglobulin, C-reactive protein (CRP), exploratory biomarkers and anti-PAT-SM6 antibodies. - To evaluate the duration of response and the progression free survival.
In this non-interventional one year study, data about overall and particularly gastrointestinal tolerability, indications, cardiovascular risk factors and compliance are collected by basic questionnaires, which are handed out by pharmacists to patients who acquire (in Germany no prescription is needed) Rx (Prescription) or OTC (Over-The-counter) Aspirin protect (enteric coated aspirin) 100 mg and are willing to participate in the study. After 3, 6, 9 and 12 months follow-up questionnaires are sent out. Aim of the study is to get information about safety, usage and compliance under everyday's conditions, because in Germany low-dose aspirin is an OTC product with Rx indication.
The purpose of this study is to characterize plasma and urinary concentrations of ceftaroline following intravenous administration of a single dose of ceftaroline 600 mg in healthy subjects who are normal weight, overweight, and obese.
The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidine added to ropivacaine in patients undergoing shoulder surgery.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of MDT-637, when inhaled by subjects with Intermittent, or Mild-to-Moderate Persistent, Asthma.
This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending multiple-dose study of VIA-3196 to evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of VIA-3196 in Healthy Subjects. Study dosing is organized into cohorts corresponding to escalating doses of VIA-3196 or matching placebo. Subjects will be dosed daily for 14 days.
