Filter by:The Transition Navigator Trial (TNT) is a pragmatic randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of usual care plus a patient navigator service versus usual care plus newsletters and other educational materials, to improve transition outcomes among adolescents aged 16-21 who have chronic health conditions requiring transfer to adult specialty care. The study will provide urgently needed data to guide health care providers and policy makers regarding the provision of coordinated transition care. These results have the potential to: 1. Change care delivery 2. Improve health outcomes 3. Improve the experiences of young adult transition to adult care
This will be a phase 1/2a, open-label, single-center study with 3 periods. The aims of the study are to: 1. evaluate the dose-response curve following ascending single doses of TSX-011; 2. confirm optimum dosing conditions; 3. evaluate the efficacy of single or multiple daily adaptive dosing; and 4. evaluate the safety and tolerability of TSX-011.
To study, prospectively, the association between dietary patterns and risk of health outcomes (cardiovascular, metabolic, endocrine, neurological, skeletal muscular, cancer) in cohort study of 116,671 women age 24 to 44 years at baseline in 1989 (the Nurses' Health Study II; NHS II).
This is a randomized, open-label, active controlled, Phase 2 study designed to assess the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of weekly and semi-monthly doses of GX-H9 in the treatment of Paediatric Growth Hormone Deficiency (PGHD) as compared to the standard of care daily rhGH treatment.
A 26 week trial of TransCon hGH, a long-acting growth hormone product, administered once-a-week. Approximately 150 children (males and females) with growth hormone deficiency (GHD) will be included. All study participants will receive TransCon hGH. This is a global trial that will be conducted in, but not limited to, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
To Evaluate the safety and efficacy of PEG Somatropin in the treatment of children with growth hormone deficiency, as well as to study the dosage of PEG Somatropin.
This randomized, active-controlled, two-armed, open-label, and cross-over trial was designed to compare efficacy and safety of 0.03 mg/kg/day subcutaneous injections of either CinnaTropin® or Novo Nordisk growth hormone product in 30 children with Idiopathic Growth Hormone Deficiency. Patients were randomized to receive one of the products for three months. After that, each patient crossed over to the other arm to receive the other product for another three months. The primary objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of CinnaGen growth hormone (GH) with Nordilet. The secondary objectives of this study were further comparison and evaluation of efficacy along with safety between CinnaTropin® and Nordilet®.
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to investigate the effect of abnormal liver (hepatic) function on the amount of trial drug getting into the body and removal of the drug from the body (this is called pharmacokinetics). In this trial the participants will receive three subcutaneous (under the skin) injections of the trial drug somapacitan. Somapacitan is a long-acting growth hormone analogue (a drug similar to human growth hormone) intended for once-weekly subcutaneous administration.
This project will assess the feasibility and efficacy of the use of exercise and dietary supplementation with a non essential amino acid - glutamine - a component of most protein supplements, on the regulation of plasma glucose homeostasis in a clinical setting of children with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The study specifically targets patients in puberty as this period is associated with a physiological decline in insulin sensitivity, the latter often associated with poor control. Although physical exercise has long been known to exert beneficial effects on metabolism, lack of time is the most common reason perceived as preventing the performance of exercise in both healthy and diabetic subjects. In earlier studies, the investigators showed that oral supplementation with glutamine, a non essential amino acid given prior to exercise decreases overnight post-exercise blood glucose in adolescents with T1D. Hence, the objective of the current study is to investigate if a novel way of exercising, such as performing 6 short bouts of just 1 min each of intense exercise ('exercise snacks') 30 min before meals, with or without glutamine, improves glycemic control in adolescents with T1D. Designing innovative ways to improve diabetes control in adolescents is highly desirable. The specific aim of the project is to determine whether the sustained use of the proposed exercise snacks with or without glutamine results in diminished glycemic variability and/or improved glucose control
The purpose of this study is to characterize the hormonal status in fertile women undergoing laparoscopic gastric bypass, pre- and postoperatively, and evaluate if there is a correlation between health-related quality of life and proposed hormone changes post-operatively.
