New Formulation | NCT00490932 ↗ | New Hypo-Osmolar ORS (Recommended by WHO) for Routine Use in the Diarrhea Management- Surveillance Study for Adverse Effects | Completed | Society for Applied Studies | Phase 4 | 2005-03-01 | For more than 25 years WHO and UNICEF have recommended a single formulation of glucose-based Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) to prevent or treat dehydration from diarrhoea irrespective of the cause or age group affected. This product has proven effective and contributed substantially to the dramatic global reduction in mortality from diarrhoeal disease during the period. Based on more than two decades of research and recommendations by an expert group, WHO and UNICEF reviewed the effectiveness of a new ORS formula with reduced concentration of glucose and salts. Because of the improved effectiveness of this new ORS solution WHO and UNICEF recommended that countries use and manufacture this new formulation in place of the old one. While recommending this new ORS the experts also recommended that further monitoring is desirable to better assess the risk, if any of symptomatic hyponatraemia (low blood level of sodium salt). This is a surveillance study to evaluate adverse effect of routinely using the new ORS in a hospital admitting over 20,000 patients with diarrhea of all ages including cholera. If the new ORS is found safe, it will provide added confidence in its global use. |
New Dosage | NCT01533090 ↗ | Evaluation of Reduced-volume PEG Bowel Preparation Administered the Same Day of Colonoscopy | Completed | Catholic University of the Sacred Heart | N/A | 2010-04-01 | The conventional total dose of 4 L of polyethylene glycol (PEG) given the day before the procedure is safe and effective. It has been the standard cleansing regimen for the last 25 years. To overcome the difficulty in completing the bowel preparation due to large volume and/or taste, reduced-volume (mixed) bowel preparation of bisacodyl and 2 L of PEG have been shown to provide adequate colon cleansing and better tolerability. LoVol-esse is a reduced-volume PEG-based bowel preparation to be used in combination with bisacodyl and designed to improve patient tolerability and attitude toward bowel cleansing prior to colonoscopy thanks to the reduced volume and improved taste. The present study is intended to compare the new dosing regimen of the bowel lavage solution given the same day compared with standard PEG formulation (SELG 1000) given the day before colonoscopy. |

NCT00001986 ↗ | 1-Octanol to Treat Essential Tremor | Completed | National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) | Phase 1 | 2000-01-01 | This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the food additive 1-octanol for treating essential tremor. This disorder, which is an involuntary shaking, usually of the hands, has no satisfactory treatment. It affects more than one of every 100 people in the general population, with the figure climbing to nearly 4 in every hundred among people over 40 years old. In animal studies, 1-octanol reduced chemically induced tremors in rats. This study will test the effects of the accepted daily intake of 1-octanol (1 milligram per kilogram of body weight) on essential tremor in humans. Patients with essential tremor 21 years old and older who wish to enroll in this study will undergo eligibility screening with a medical history and physical examination that includes tests for thyroid, liver and kidney problems. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either 1-octanol or a placebo (an inactive substance). Patients in both groups will have an intravenous catheter (a thin, plastic tube) placed in an arm vein for collecting blood samples during the study. Those in the 1-octanol group will be given a 1-octanol capsule; the placebo group will receive a look-alike capsule containing no active ingredient. Neither the patient nor the doctor will know which patients are taking 1-octanol or placebo until the end of the study. Tremors will be measured once before the catheter is placed, every 15 minutes during the first 2 hours after taking the capsule, twice during the third hour (30 minutes apart), and once again after 5 hours. The tremors are measured using procedures called accelerometry and surface electromyography. For these procedures, electrodes are taped to the skin; needles are not used. Blood samples will be collected once before taking the capsule, every 15 minutes for the first hour and a half after taking the capsule and again at 2 hours, 4 hours and 5 hours after taking the capsule. Vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, and respiratory rate) will be measured every 15 minutes during the first 2 hours of taking the capsule, every 30 minutes during the third hour, and again at 4 hours and 5 hours. Participants will stay in the hospital overnight for observation and return after 3 days for a follow-up physical examination, including a blood test. |
NCT00004328 ↗ | Phase II Study of the Pathophysiology and Treatment With Enalapril and Polystyrene Sulfonate for Pseudohypoaldosteronism, Type I | Completed | University of Texas | Phase 2 | 1992-12-01 | OBJECTIVES: I. Establish the sodium and potassium intake that will maintain a normovolemic state in a patient with pseudohypoaldosteronism. II. Determine the effect of extracellular fluid volume and serum potassium manipulations on exercise tolerance, cardiac function, and endurance. III. Investigate pharmacologic methods of limiting excretion of sodium in urine and sweat. |

Establish the sodium and potassium intake that will maintain a normovolemic state in a patient with pseudohypoaldosteronism. II. Determine the effect of extracellular fluid volume and serum potassium manipulations on exercise tolerance, cardiac function, and endurance. III.

NCT00039988 ↗ | Treatment of Multiple Sclerosis With Copaxone and Albuterol | Completed | Autoimmunity Centers of Excellence | N/A | 2001-11-01 | The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of glatiramer acetate (Copaxone) alone compared to Copaxone plus albuterol in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). MS is thought to be an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. Certain white blood cells of the immune system become abnormally active and mistakenly attack the myelin of nerve fibers. Myelin is a fatty sheath that surrounds nerve fibers and insulates the nerve like insulation around an electrical wire. Without proper myelin insulation, messages sent between the brain and other parts of the body may be confused or fail completely. Damage to myelin causes the symptoms of MS. The most common form of MS is known as relapsing-remitting (RR), where partial or total recovery occurs after attacks. Four therapies are currently approved for the treatment of MS. These therapies, however, are only moderately effective and can cause undesirable side effects. For this reason, there is a need to find new therapies that have minimal side effects and may stop the disease from getting worse. |
