NCT01079975
This is an observational, non controlled, multicentric, prospective study planned to be conducted in 350 subjects diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) in 20 centres of Argentina to identify the predictive factors leading to depression. The incidence of depression symptoms and its influence in the evolution of the disease are unknown in the Argentinean population. Early diagnosis of depression symptoms allows the specific treatment of them and can also delay the rich apparition of the disease. This study intends to quantify the incidence of these symptoms and also aims to evaluate which are the predictive factors of the apparition of the depression.

AIM: To evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of an innovative exercise program (EP) for patients during treatment for gastrointestinal tumors, breast and non small cells lung cancer, in terms of improved quality of life (QOL), fatigue and functional capacity respect the usual standard treatment (ST). DESIGN: Pragmatic randomized clinical trial in two parallel groups: EP and ST. SETTING: 7 Primary Health Centers (PHC) of the redIAPPISCIII, in coordination with oncology services. PARTICIPANTS: 250 patients with the above tumors, locally advanced or with metastatic disease, in adjuvant treatment, with Performance Status(PS) PS1-PS0. INTERVENTION: Both groups received standardized usual care. The EP group will receive, in addition, a nurse supervised exercise program for 2 months in the PHC and a second phase in community facilities during the remaining 10 months. MEASUREMENTS: The primary outcome measure is the change from baseline in the QOL+66 treatment, as measured by the specific questionnaire for patients with cancer EORTC QLQ-C-30 and Short Form(SF-36) overall. Secondary: fatigue (FACIT-F), radiological response, functional capacity (6 minutes walking and cardiopulmonary test), muscle strength and progression-free survival and overall. Predictors and confounders: age, sex, stage and tumor type, histology, treatment. ANALYSIS: We will compare between groups mean changes from baseline measurement of quality of life questionnaire (QOL) and other variables, on an intention to treat basis, using longitudinal mixed-effects models for repeated measures at 2, 6 and 12 months follow-up. Cost / effectiveness and cost / incremental utility associated to the program wil be estimated.

NCT01152437
This Phase II study is open to patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have tried but failed chemotherapy regimens containing oxaliplatin and irinotecan. Patients must not have received anti-EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor) treatment (for example, cetuximab, panitumumab) in the past. Patients with wild-type KRAS (v-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog) colorectal cancer will be randomised to receive either BIBW 2992 or cetuximab. Patients with KRAS mutated colorectal cancer will not be randomised, but will all receive BIBW 2992. The main objectives of the study are: to compare the effectiveness of BIBW 2992 with that of cetuximab in patients with KRAS wild type cancer, and to assess the effectiveness of BIBW 2992 in patients with KRAS mutated cancer.

NCT01444300
Dalfampridine is a new medication that was FDA approved in 2010 to improve walking speed in people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). People with MS walk slowly in part because MS damages the myelin insulation around nerves which slows conduction of messages from the brain to the leg muscles. Dalfampridine works by improving conduction in nerves with damaged myelin. Recent research indicates that imbalance in MS is in large part caused by poor conduction by the nerves that transmit information about the position of the legs to the brain. It is therefore likely that, by improving nerve conduction, dalfampridine will also improve imbalance in people with MS. Dalfampridine will be administered in this study by the same route (oral), dosage (10mg), and frequency (every 12 hours) approved by the FDA to improve walking speed in people with MS. The proposed pilot study will examine the effects of dalfampridine on imbalance in 24 subjects with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and imbalance. This small pilot study will help to show if dalfampridine improves imbalance in MS and will guide the design and implementation of a larger full scale study to definitively determine if dalfampridine improves balance and prevents falls in people with MS.
NCT02161692

NCT02145533
An association between arterial aneurysms and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) has been described previously. MMPs regulate extracellular structural proteins and tissue remodeling. Neutrophil Gelatinase-associated Lipocalin (NGAL) is involved in the regulation of MMP activity. The aim of this work was to study the relationship between the levels of MMPs and NGAL and arterial aneurysms. In a multicenter, open label, parallel groups, prospective study, patients with aneurysmal disease were divided into two groups: Group I (with ruptured aneurysm) and Group II (with non-ruptured aneurysm). Healthy volunteer patients were also enrolled and represented the control group (Group III). The investigators enrolled 307 patients (Group I: 107, Group II: 200) with arterial aneurysm: 49 popliteal, 31 common femoral, 2 superficial femoral, 29 common iliac artery, 3 common carotid and 193 abdominal aorta. Finally, 11 healthy volunteer patients (9 males and 2 females, age range 40-70 year-old, median 56) were enrolled in Group III. Elisa test and Western blot analysis revealed greater levels of immunoreactive MMP-9 and NGAL in all patients with ruptured aneurysms, both central and peripheral aneurysms, and in the aneurismal vessels. These results provide important advances in the understanding of the natural history of arterial aneurysms. MMPs and NGAL play a role in development of arterial aneurysms and they may represent molecular markers for the prevention of aneurysmal rupture
