Filter by:This is a multicenter, placebo controlled, parallel group, double-blind, randomized comparison study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ropinirole IR tablets orally administered for 12 weeks in patients with symptomatic restless legs syndrome associated with Chronic kidney disease (CKD) managed with haemodialysis (including haemofiltration and haemodiafiltration) (hereinafter referred to as "uRLS"), to evaluate the efficacy and safety of long-term administration of ropinirole IR tablets, and assess the effect on the steady state pharmacokinetics in the long-term administration period of ropinirole IR tablets.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of pregabalin and pramipexole versus placebo in the treatment of restless legs syndrome and associated sleep disturbance.
The purpose of this study is to develop statistical and informatics tools for analyzing and visualizing Actical™ (actigraphy) data linked to fatigue in Sleep Medicine Center patients.
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a common sensori-motor disorder that causes sensory discomfort and motor restlessness, most often in the legs, which improves with movement. Although medications are available to treat the disorder, many people either experience side effects that prevent them from continuing on the medication or do not sufficiently respond to current RLS medications. Recently, botulinum toxin type A (BNT) has been reported to relief RLS in patients with severe symptoms but this was not confirmed by other anecdotal reports. The investigators propose to test the efficacy of BNT on RLS symptoms by designing a more controlled study. Ultimately, this may lead to extend the therapeutic arsenal of this disorder.
Uremic etiology Restless legs syndrome (RLS) has been associated with poorer quality of life (QoL) compared to RLS-free counterparts mainly due to sleep deprivation factors. Exercise training in hemodialysis (HD) patients with RLS has been proven to be a safe approach in temporally ameliorating RLS symptoms similarly to the use of pharmacological treatment with dopamine agonists. However it not known whether the exercise anabolic stimulus and the dopamine agonist treatment could act synergistically for the improvement of physical functioning and muscle performance as well as in the amelioration of augmentation symptoms in hemodialysis patients with RLS.
Non-randomized open label Phase II clinical trial in which subjects meeting criteria for RLS were assigned to 1 of 3 treatment cohorts. The first cohort received one 500 mg IV iron sucrose infusion in 500 mL normal sterile saline (NSS) administered over four hours. The second cohort received two 500 mg IV iron sucrose infusions in 500mL of NSS administered over four to six hours on two separate dates, separated by two to seven days. The third cohort received two 500 mg IV iron sucrose infusions in at least 500 mL of NSS over six hours within 30 hours of the start of the first infusion. Cohorts were enrolled and treated subsequently.
The main goal of this open-label, prospective, non-controlled, non-interventional post marketing surveillance study is to evaluate how pramipexole treatment works when applied in actual practice. In actual practice patients who would have been excluded in the clinical registration studies of pramipexole in moderate to severe primary Restless Legs Syndrome (i.e. those with certain disease histories, co-morbidities and/or demographic characteristics) will also be treated with pramipexole. Thus, during this post marketing surveillance study additional information on the efficacy and safety of pramipexole in those patients will be obtained. The objectives of this post marketing surveillance study are: - To investigate the influence of Sifrol® (pramipexole) treatment on unpleasant sensory symptoms of Restless Legs Syndrome as measured with the short form of the McGill Pain Questionnaire. - To assess if improvement of sensory symptoms correlates with overall Restless Legs Syndrome severity (International Restless Legs Syndrome Scale for Severity) and with secondary symptoms like sleeping problems and daytime tiredness (items 1 & 6 from Restless Legs Syndrome-6). - To evaluate if the treatment effect of Sifrol on overall Restless Legs Syndrome severity (International Restless Legs Syndrome Scale for Severity) differs between patients with high pain scores and patients with lower pain scores. - To compare General Practitioner and neurologist sites patient populations in terms of demographics, Restless Legs Syndrome severity at Visit 1 and treatment outcomes at Visit 3. - To evaluate the development of behavioural changes under pramipexole treatment.
The restless leg syndromes is a common sensorimotor disorder of unknown cause affecting approximately 10% of the population. Different literature had different views on the association between neuraxial anesthesia and the occurrence of restless leg syndrome. Some reported that spinal anesthesia induced postoperative restless leg syndrome, but other studies showed that spinal and general anesthesia all two did not cause restless leg syndrome. A potential difference amongst these studies is that a big difference exists in surgical types. The investigators proposed that different types of surgery performed undergoing various anesthesia, and that there is a big difference in original pathophysiological condition. Therefore, the investigators hypothesized that pregnant women who have special physical states would have had an association between neuraxial anesthesia and restless leg syndrome in such patients who received selective cesarean section undergoing spinal or epidural anesthesia.
Some medications used to treat the restless legs syndrome (RLS) when taken for some time make the condition worse. This study seeks to find a method for early detection of this problem so that it can either be prevented or corrected.
This is a clinical trial to be conducted at multiple sites in the USA. Patients diagnosed with moderate to severe Restless Legs Syndrome will be randomly allocated to one of 5 treatment arms in the study. The 5 arms include 4 arms with different doses of aplindore MR tablets and 1 placebo arm. The treatment will be taken once a day. The study is blinded and neither patients, nor the investigators, will know what treatment the patient is receiving. Patients will be assigned a dose and will be maintained at that dose for several weeks (2 treatment arms include a short titration period). The entire study will take about 6 weeks. The study will measure how effective aplindore is in decreasing symptoms of Restless Legs Syndrome, and will also assess the safety and tolerability of aplindore.
