Active clinical trials for "Hyperplasia"

This was an open label, randomised, single dose study, comprising Part A (undertaken in two separate three-period crossover cohorts denoted as A1 and A2) and Part B (undertaken in one four-period crossover cohort), to evaluate the PK of Chronocort® in healthy male volunteers. The washout interval in both Part A and Part B was 1-week in between each treatment period.

The objective of PERFECTO is to assess the reendothelialization at 3 months after successfully CTO percutaneous intervention (PCI) with new generation drug eluting stent (DES) by OFDI analysis. Designed as a multicentric, observational and prospective study which will be conducted at University Hospital of Poitiers (France), a systematic OFDI analysis will be realized immediately after CTO-PCI and at 3 months. Known as major predictive factors of stent thrombosis, percentages of malapposition, uncovered struts and neointimal hyperplasia proliferation will be measured over the entire length of each stent implanted combining in a composite primary endpoint.

There is increasing evidence linking a fetal and early neonatal systemic inflammatory response syndrome to the subsequent development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and white matter injury (WMI) in very preterm infants. Babies with evidence of adrenal insufficiency early in life may not be able to control the inflammatory response and are thereby more likely to develop BPD than babies who do not show such evidence of inflammation. We designed a randomized controlled trial to test the hypothesis whether very preterm babies at high-risk of BPD, treated with low doses of HC during the first 10 days of life, are more likely to survive without BPD at 36 weeks of post-menstrual age (PMA), compared to babies treated with placebo.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the interaction between doxazosin GITS and vardenafil on blood pressure (Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure) in patients with both ED and BPH.

The primary purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the change in the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) total score from the beginning of the study to the end of the study for subjects randomized to tadalafil 5mg once a day dosing and placebo once a day dosing for 12 weeks of treatment.

This exploratory study will be conducted open label in a single investigational clinical unit. Altogether 52 patients with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) will be randomly assigned to receive 4 different treatments with degarelix.

Developmental dysplasia of the hip is the most common musculoskeletal disorder in infancy, with a reported prevalence of 2% of all newborns. Although newborn screening programs based on clinical examination with Ortolani and Barlow tests were introduced in the 1950's and 1960's with early abduction splinting of the 2% testing positive, the prevalence of late cases warranting surgery has remained stable, around one per 1000. This has led to the introduction of ultrasound as an additional diagnostic tool, resulting in treatment rates of until 5-6%. This three fold increase in abduction splinting treatment is partly due to the initiation of treatment of infants in whom mild hip dysplasia but no hip instability has been identified. The benefit of early treatment of mild dysplasia in a hip that is neither dislocated nor dislocatable is unclear. Further, abduction splinting is not without risk, with avascular necrosis being reported in around 1%. The investigators conducted a masked, randomized, controlled trial to examine whether mildly dysplastic but stable or instable hips would benefit from early treatment, as compared to watchful waiting.

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with two treatment arms (Tamsulosin OCAS 0.4 mg & placebo). The study comprises a 2-week placebo run-in followed by a 12-week treatment period.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) refers to the proliferation of smooth muscle and epithelial cells of the prostate gland. The enlarged gland has the potential to result in lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to either bladder outlet obstruction or increased muscle tone and resistance, or both. For decades transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) has been the gold standard for treatment of symptomatic BPH that is refractory to nonoperative management. This is a surgical intervention aimed to reduce the size of the prostate gland. However, over the past fifteen years, many alternative therapies have been introduced including laser enucleation of the prostate (LEP). LEP has numerous advantages including decreased blood loss and length of hospital stay as well as increased effectiveness and safety for large prostate gland sizes (>80g).

The primary study objective is to evaluate improvement of symptoms from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) as assessed by the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) at 12 months post prostatic artery embolization (PAE) with bland microspheres.
