NCT00732472
The study drug which is an inhaled bronchodilator (lung airway relaxant)has been given to both healthy volunteers and to COPD patients before. This study will assess a new formulation of GSK573719. Many drugs are known to deteriorate over time. To make the study medicine less likely to deteriorate in its container, it is mixed with an inactive substance that helps to to maintain the quality of the study medicine. Previous studies have looked at GSK573719 with another inactive substance called Cellobiose Octaacetate (COA). This study will be looking at a new formulation of GSK573719 using Magnesium Stearate (MgSt) as the inactive substance. MgSt itself is not a medicine but is approved as a food ingredient and has also has been approved to be used in a number of marketed medical inhalers. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of compound GSK573719 with Magnesium Stearate for once-daily treatment of COPD(Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease). This drug will be given to 2 groups of 12 people for 7 days. Group 1 will receive 250mcg or placebo and group 2 will receive 1000mcg or placebo. Group 2 will not be dosed until at least 6 people have completed dosing in group 1 without any significant safety concerns. The following safety measures will be assessed including: ECGs, heart rate, blood pressure, blood samples for safety labs, lung function and 24 hour monitoring of the heart. We will also take blood and urine samples to measure medication levels in the body. GlaxoSmithKline will be funding the research and it will be recruiting at Synexus in 7 of their centres in the UK.
NCT00799994
A study to determine whether a patient's range of vision test results improve after their eye pressure is lowered by 30% or more by testing on a new machine called the Accumap and how to learn how much the Accumap's results change from one test to another within the same person. The investigators believe that Multifocal VEP readings (Accumap)(and therefore visual function and ganglion cell function) improve after acutely lowering intraocular pressure.
NCT01875198
When distal pancreatectomy is carried out for left-sided pancreatic cancer, splenectomy is usually performed not only for margin-negative resection but also for effective clearance of the splenic hilar lymph nodes. However, there was no scientific evidence regarding the justifiability for spleen resection. Considering potential immunological function of the spleen, the investigators hypothesized that distal pancreatectomy without pancreatectomy for left-sided pancreatic cancer is superior than Distal pancreatectomy with pancreatectomy in terms of short-term perioperative outcomes and disease-specific overall survival.
NCT00966576
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of adding AZARGA in glaucoma patients with uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP), currently on prostaglandin monotherapy.
NCT01230736
The purpose of this study to assess the safety and efficacy of changing to DuoTrav® from prior bimatoprost 0.03%/timolol 0.5% (used concomitantly or in a fixed combination) pharmacotherapy in uncontrolled patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
NCT02627339
The purpose of this study is to build a database of results from a new test that measures contrast sensitivity (the Spaeth-Richman Contrast Sensitivity Test (SPARCS)). Contrast sensitivity is an important part of your ability to see. When contrast sensitivity decreases, you are less able to see objects and detect motion. For instance, if you have decreased contrast sensitivity, you might be less able to read, see in the dark, drive, hit a ball, or walk safely. Decrease in contrast sensitivity leads to a decrease in quality of life.
NCT00382226
Uncontrolled glaucoma patients being treated with a prostaglandin agent alone or in combination with adjunctive drugs in fixed or unfixed combinations, will be switched from their current therapy to travoprost/timolol fixed combination and either Azopt or placebo
NCT00435760
This trial evaluates the rate of onset of bronchodilator action of aclidinium bromide compared to placebo and tiotropium in patients with severe COPD after a single dose treatment.
NCT00841867
The purpose of this study is to examine changes in sugar metabolism that may occur in subjects who have previously had part of their pancreas removed due to a benign lesion.
NCT02964299
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of mandibular advancement bite block to standard bite block for prevention of hypoxemia, intervention events and adverse effects during endoscopic examinations.
NCT01648621
Many patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) also have other diseases referred to as comorbidities. Often these patients require health care by a variety of health care professionals from services linked to hospitals and in the community. Unfortunately, sometimes it may be difficult for these patients to receive appropriate care in a timely manner resulting in a trip to the emergency department. As well, patients may benefit from education that enables them to recognize early signs indicating they are getting sicker and to self-manage their disease. Our study will examine a strategy that includes a case manager who will make weekly phone contact with COPD patients with comorbidity that present either to the emergency department or are admitted to hospital. Weekly contact will focus on teaching patients to recognize worsening symptoms and self-management strategies. The case manager will work with patients, caregivers, community health care providers and hospital specialists to promote communication and optimize care delivery. The investigators will examine the impact of our intervention on the need for emergency department visits and hospital admission. The investigators will also examine the impact on patients' health related quality of life, number of COPD exacerbations, and disease progression.
NCT01567956
The aim of the trial is to test safety, tolerability and efficacy of Propionyl-L-carnitine modified release tablets 1g/die in reducing the symptoms of the disease with respect to the proportion of patients with disease remission at the end of the 8 weeks of treatment. It will also aim to investigate capability of the treatment in the maintenance of remission after four weeks of treatment interruption; histological changes will be also evaluated and finally, improvement in the overall quality of life as measured by the Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ) will be investigated.
NCT00694980
This is a randomized , double-blind, placebo-controlled study of approximately 70 patients with ulcerative colitis.
NCT01525706
Pancreatic cysts are becoming diagnosed more frequently due to the increased use and sensitivity of imaging. A subset of these cysts are pre-cancerous, therefore suggested treatment is surgery for removal. However, surgery involves significant risks and emerging opinion suggests that not all cysts need to be surgically removed. An alternative therapy would be ideal, in particular for those where surgical risk outweighs the benefits of resection. Ethanol and paclitaxel ablation of pancreatic cysts may be a viable alternative to surgical resection. Our hypothesis is that ethanol with paclitaxel ablation is a safe and effective method for treatment in those with per-cancerous, mucinous pancreatic cysts.
NCT01994915
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a chronic condition involving an impairment in functionality and in the execution of activities of daily life. The hypothesis of this study is that an occupational therapy intervention added to a physiotherapy program and a medical treatment increase the functionality and the quality of life of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
NCT02128529
The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of chronic bronchitis in patients suffering from moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and to assess the difference in exacerbation rates in patients suffering from moderate to very severe COPD with chronic bronchitis vs. a population of patients without chronic bronchitis.
NCT02951715
Twenty patients with tinnitus and a typical noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) audiogram were included. Each subject underwent an otoscopic examination, distortion product otoacoustic emissions, tinnitus-match testing, Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) and serum zinc level analyses. After 2 months of treatment with zinc, all tests were repeated.
