Filter by:The primary objective of the study is to confirm that at least 1 or more doses of telotristat etiprate compared to placebo is effective in reducing the number of daily bowel movements (BMs) from baseline averaged over the 12-week double-blind portion (Treatment Period) of the trial in patients not adequately controlled by current SSA therapy.
Serotonin has recently been identified as a major regulator of bone formation. Gut-derived serotonin inhibits bone formation, and early animal studies have shown that inhibition of gut-derived serotonin has anabolic effects on bone in ovariectomised rodents. This pathway has potential to be developed as a new anabolic treatment for osteoporosis in humans. Carcinoid neuro-endocrine tumours produce very high levels of serotonin, and so it might be expected that patients with carcinoid disease would have reduced bone formation, low bone mass and fractures. However, this has not been apparent in clinical practice. There may be a discrepancy between rodent models and human disease. This study aims to identify whether patients with carcinoid disease have reduced bone mass, reduced bone formation or high fracture rates. The investigators will conduct a cross-sectional observational case-control study of patients with carcinoid disease in the Sheffield neuro-endocrine tumour clinic and gender-, age- and body mass index (BMI)-matched controls.
The purpose of the protocol is to to assess subject's overall satisfaction regarding control of diarrhea. The study aims to supplement results obtained through clinical trials with data obtained from a population of patients receiving treatment with Somatuline Autogel in routine practice.
The primary hypothesis of this study is that panitumumab, an inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), is an effective treatment for carcinoid syndrome in people who fail or do not adequately respond to octreotide or other supportive therapies.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of orally administered telotristat etiprate (LX1606) in participants with symptomatic carcinoid syndrome.
The purpose of the protocol is to assess the efficacy and safety of BIM 23A760 on patient's overall satisfaction in terms of symptom relief (diarrhoea and/or flushes) in patients with carcinoid syndrome after 24 weeks of treatment.
To identify the occurrence of serotonin toxicity in Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients receiving antidepressant therapy and rasagiline, compared to those receiving rasagiline without antidepressant medications and compared to PD patients receiving antidepressants, but not rasagiline.
Evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and efficacy of an octreotide implant for the treatment of the symptoms of carcinoid syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of telotristat etiprate (LX1606) versus a placebo control in participants with symptomatic carcinoid syndrome not managed by stable-dose long-acting octreotide therapy. Following determination of the maximally tolerated or effective dose, cohort expansion will occur to confirm effect on symptoms and safety profile.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether monthly deep subcutaneous (s.c.) injections of lanreotide Autogel (Somatuline Depot) were effective and safe in controlling diarrhoea and flushing by reducing the usage of s.c. short-acting octreotide as a rescue medication to control symptoms in subjects with carcinoid syndrome.
