Input:Comparison of drug-eluting and bare-metal stents for primary percutaneous coronary intervention with or without abciximab in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: DEBATER: the Eindhoven reperfusion study. The goal of this study was to demonstrate superiority of sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) over bare-metal stents (BMS) and of abciximab over no abciximab in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Drug-eluting stents (DES) are increasingly used in primary PCI, but the recommendations for use in primary PCI are based on a few randomized controlled trials with selected patients. The usefulness of abciximab in primary PCI is not established. Nine hundred seven patients referred to the Catharina Hospital were randomized to SES or BMS, and to abciximab or no abciximab in a prospective, randomized, open 2 × 2 factorial trial with blinded evaluation. Primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), defined as the composite of death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, repeat revascularization, and bleeding at 1 year (stent arm) and the composite of death, target vessel MI, target vessel revascularization (TVR), and bleeding at 30 days (abciximab arm). At 1 year, the rate of MACCE was lower in the SES arm (16.5% vs. 25.8%, p = 0.001), mainly driven by less repeat revascularization (9.8% vs. 16.8%; p = 0.003) and without influencing the cumulative incidence of death and MI (5.2% vs. 5.8%; p = 0.68). At 30 days, the rate of the composite of death, target vessel MI, TVR, and bleeding was lower in the abciximab arm (8.2% vs. 12.4%, p = 0.04), mainly driven by less TVR due to less stent thrombosis (1.2% vs.7.4%, p < 0.001). However, bleeding complications occurred more frequently in the abciximab group (5.7% vs. 2.8%, p = 0.03). Primary PCI with SES reduces adverse events at 1 year, mainly by reduction of repeat revascularization, whereas abciximab reduces early stent thrombosis, at the expense of more bleeding complications. (Comparison of Drug Eluting and Bare Metal Stents With or Without Abciximab in ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction [DEBATER]; NCT00986050). Output: | {'conditions': 'Acute Myocardial Infarction', 'interventions': 'Drug: Abciximab|Device: bare metal stent prokinetic, chrono, skylor or bluemedical|Device: drug eluting stent (sirolimus eluting) - CYPHER stent'} |

Input:A botulinum toxin A treatment algorithm for de novo management of torticollis and laterocollis. Few studies have investigated the injection patterns for botulinum toxin type A for the treatment of heterogeneous forms of cervical dystonia (CD). This large, prospective, open-label, multicentre study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of 500 U botulinum toxin A for the initial treatment according to a standardised algorithm of the two most frequent forms of CD, predominantly torticollis and laterocollis. Patients (aged ≥ 18 years) with CD not previously treated with botulinum neurotoxin therapy were given one treatment with 500 U Dysport, according to a defined intramuscular injection algorithm based on clinical assessment of direction of head deviation, occurrence of shoulder elevation, occurrence of tremor (all evaluated using the Tsui rating scale) and hypertrophy of the sternocleidomastoid muscle. In this study, 516 patients were enrolled, the majority of whom (95.0%) completed treatment. Most patients had torticollis (78.1%). At week 4, mean Tsui scores had significantly decreased by -4.01, -3.76 and -4.09 points in the total, torticollis and laterocollis populations, respectively. Symptom improvement was equally effective between groups. Tsui scores remained significantly below baseline at week 12 in both groups. Treatment was well tolerated; the most frequent adverse events were muscular weakness (13.8%), dysphagia (9.9%) and neck pain (6.6%). Dysport 500 U is effective and well tolerated for the de novo management of a range of heterogeneous forms of CD, when using a standardised regimen that allows tailored dosing based on individual symptom assessment.

Input:Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibition by vildagliptin and the effect on insulin secretion and action in response to meal ingestion in type 2 diabetes. The purpose of this study was to determine the mechanism by which dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors lower postprandial glucose concentrations. We measured insulin secretion and action as well as glucose effectiveness in 14 subjects with type 2 diabetes who received vildagliptin (50 mg b.i.d.) or placebo for 10 days in random order separated by a 3-week washout. On day 9 of each period, subjects ate a mixed meal. Insulin sensitivity (S(I)), glucose effectiveness, and beta-cell responsivity indexes were estimated using the oral glucose and C-peptide minimal models. At 300 min 0.02 unit/kg insulin was administered intravenously. Vildagliptin reduced postprandial glucose concentrations (905 +/- 94 vs. 1,008 +/- 104 mmol/6 h, P = 0.02). Vildagliptin did not alter net S(I) (7.71 +/- 1.28 vs. 6.41 +/- 0.84 10(-4) dl x kg(-1) x min(-1) x muU(-1) x ml(-1), P = 0.13) or glucose effectiveness (0.019 +/- 0.002 vs. 0.018 +/- 0.002 dl x kg(-1) x min(-1), P = 0.65). However, the net beta-cell responsivity index was increased (35.7 +/- 5.2 vs. 28.9 +/- 5.2 10(-9) min(-1), P = 0.03) as was total disposition index (381 +/- 48 vs. 261 +/- 35 10(-14) dl x kg(-1) x min(-2) x pmol(-1) x l(-1), P = 0.006). Vildagliptin lowered postprandial glucagon concentrations (27.0 +/- 1.1 vs. 29.7 +/- 1.5 microg x l(-1) x 6 h(-1), P = 0.03), especially after administration of exogenous insulin (81.5 +/- 6.4 vs. 99.3 +/- 5.6 ng/l, P = 0.02). Vildagliptin lowers postprandial glucose concentrations by stimulating insulin secretion and suppressing glucagon secretion but not by altered insulin action or glucose effectiveness. A novel observation is that vildagliptin alters alpha-cell responsiveness to insulin administration, but the significance of this action is as yet unclear. Output: | {'conditions': 'Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2', 'interventions': 'Drug: Vildagliptin'} |

Input:Single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation for acute treatment of migraine with aura: a randomised, double-blind, parallel-group, sham-controlled trial. Preliminary work suggests that single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (sTMS) could be effective as a treatment for migraine. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of a new portable sTMS device for acute treatment of migraine with aura. We undertook a randomised, double-blind, parallel-group, two-phase, sham-controlled study at 18 centres in the USA. 267 adults aged 18-68 years were enrolled into phase one. All individuals had to meet international criteria for migraine with aura, with visual aura preceding at least 30% of migraines followed by moderate or severe headache in more than 90% of those attacks. 66 patients dropped out during phase one. In phase two, 201 individuals were randomly allocated by computer to either sham stimulation (n=99) or sTMS (n=102). We instructed participants to treat up to three attacks over 3 months while experiencing aura. The primary outcome was pain-free response 2 h after the first attack, and co-primary outcomes were non-inferiority at 2 h for nausea, photophobia, and phonophobia. Analyses were modified intention to treat and per protocol. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00449540. 37 patients did not treat a migraine attack and were excluded from outcome analyses. 164 patients treated at least one attack with sTMS (n=82) or sham stimulation (n=82; modified intention-to-treat analysis set). Pain-free response rates after 2 h were significantly higher with sTMS (32/82 [39%]) than with sham stimulation (18/82 [22%]), for a therapeutic gain of 17% (95% CI 3-31%; p=0.0179). Sustained pain-free response rates significantly favoured sTMS at 24 h and 48 h post-treatment. Non-inferiority was shown for nausea, photophobia, and phonophobia. No device-related serious adverse events were recorded, and incidence and severity of adverse events were similar between sTMS and sham groups. Early treatment of migraine with aura by sTMS resulted in increased freedom from pain at 2 h compared with sham stimulation, and absence of pain was sustained 24 h and 48 h after treatment. sTMS could be a promising acute treatment for some patients with migraine with aura. Neuralieve. Output: | {'conditions': 'Migraine With Aura', 'interventions': 'Device: Active Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Device|Device: Sham TMS Device'} |

Input:Significant tumour shrinkage after 12 months of lanreotide Autogel-120 mg treatment given first-line in acromegaly. To evaluate GH and IGF-I control and tumour shrinkage in newly diagnosed patients with acromegaly treated first-line with lanreotide-Autogel (ATG) 120 mg. Design Open, prospective. Twenty-six patients (17 women, aged 31-70 years): eight enclosed and 12 extrasellar (eight invasive) macroadenomas and six microadenomas (one invasive). ATG 120 mg initially given every 4 weeks for 12 weeks; then intervals between injections increased to every 6 or 8 weeks if GH levels were <or= 2.5 or < 1 microg/l (equal to 6.5 and 2.6 mU/l), respectively. Final dosage was ATG 120 mg every 4 weeks in nine patients (34.6%), every 6 weeks in eight patients (30.8%) and every 8 weeks in the remaining nine patients (34.6%). After 12 months, both GH and IGF-I were controlled in 14 patients (53.8%). The mean tumour volume decreased from 1405 +/- 1827 mm(3) at study entry to 960 +/- 1381 mm(3) after 6 months, and 799 +/- 1161 mm(3) after 12 months (P < 0.0001). Overall tumour shrinkage was 35.8 +/- 28.1% after 6 months and 48.4 +/- 27.6% after 12 months. After 12 months, 20 patients (76.9%) achieved > 25% tumour shrinkage: 12 of 14 with controlled disease (85.7%) and 8 of 12 with noncontrolled disease (66.7%; P = 0.49). Hyperhydrosis, paresthesiae and arthralgias significantly reduced after treatment. No patient withdrew from the study because of adverse events. ATG 120 mg in newly diagnosed patients with acromegaly controls GH and IGF-I secretion in 53.8% and induces >or= 25% tumour shrinkage in 76.9% during a 12-month period. The treatment was associated with improvement of clinical symptoms and with a good safety profile. Output: | {'conditions': 'Acromegaly', 'interventions': 'Drug: Lanreotide-Autogel 120 mg'} |

Input:Evaluation of the dose-response relationship of amlodipine and losartan combination in patients with essential hypertension: an 8-week, randomized, double-blind, factorial, phase II, multicenter study. Despite recommendations for more intensive treatment and the availability of several effective treatments, hypertension remains uncontrolled in many patients. The aim of this study was to determine the dose-response relationship and assess the efficacy and safety of amlodipine or losartan monotherapy and amlodipine camsylate/losartan combination therapy in patients with essential hypertension. This was an 8-week, randomized, double-blind, factorial design, phase II, multicenter study conducted in outpatient hospital clinics among adult patients aged 18-75 years with essential hypertension. At screening, patients received placebo for 2-4 weeks. Eligible patients (n=320) were randomized to one of eight treatment groups: amlodipine 5 mg or 10 mg, losartan 50 mg or 100 mg, amlodipine camsylate/losartan 5 mg/50 mg, 5 mg/100 mg, 10 mg/50 mg, or 10 mg/100 mg. The assumption of strict superiority was estimated using the mean change in sitting diastolic blood pressure (DBP) at 8 weeks. Safety was monitored through physical examinations, vital signs, laboratory test results, ECG, and adverse events. The reduction in DBP at 8 weeks was significantly greater in patients treated with the combination therapies compared with the respective monotherapies for all specified comparisons except amlodipine camsylate/losartan 10 mg/100 mg versus amlodipine 10 mg. The incidence of adverse events in the group of patients treated with the amlodipine camsylate/losartan 10 mg/50 mg combination tended to be higher than for any other group (27.9%, 12/43); however, the effect was not statistically significant. Combination amlodipine camsylate/losartan (5 mg/50 mg, 5 mg/100 mg and 10 mg/50 mg) resulted in significantly greater BP lowering compared with amlodipine or losartan monotherapy, and was determined to be generally safe and tolerable in patients with essential hypertension. Registered at clinicaltrials.gov: NCT00942344. Output: | {'conditions': 'Hypertension', 'interventions': 'Drug: Amlodipine plus Losartan|Drug: Amlodipine|Drug: Losartan'} |

Input:Randomized trial evaluating serial protein C levels in severe sepsis patients treated with variable doses of drotrecogin alfa (activated). Serial alterations in protein C levels appear to correlate with disease severity in patients with severe sepsis, and it may be possible to tailor severe sepsis therapy with the use of this biomarker. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dose and duration of drotrecogin alfa (activated) treatment using serial measurements of protein C compared to standard therapy in patients with severe sepsis. This was a phase 2 multicenter, randomized, double-blind, controlled study. Adult patients with two or more sepsis-induced organ dysfunctions were enrolled. Protein C deficient patients were randomized to standard therapy (24 μg/kg/hr infusion for 96 hours) or alternative therapy (higher dose and/or variable duration; 24/30/36 μg/kg/hr for 48 to 168 hours). The primary outcome was a change in protein C level in the alternative therapy group, between study Day 1 and Day 7, compared to standard therapy. Of 557 patients enrolled, 433 patients received randomized therapy; 206 alternative, and 227 standard. Baseline characteristics of the groups were largely similar. The difference in absolute change in protein C from Day 1 to Day 7 between the two therapy groups was 7% (P = 0.011). Higher doses and longer infusions were associated with a more pronounced increase in protein C level, with no serious bleeding events. The same doses and longer infusions were associated with a larger increase in protein C level; higher rates of serious bleeding when groups received the same treatment; but no clear increased risk of bleeding during the longer infusion. This group also experienced a higher mortality rate; however, there was no clear link to infusion duration. The study met its primary objective of increased protein C levels in patients receiving alternative therapy demonstrating that variable doses and/or duration of drotrecogin alfa (activated) can improve protein C levels, and also provides valuable information for incorporation into potential future studies. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00386425. Output: | {'conditions': 'Severe Sepsis', 'interventions': 'Drug: Drotrecogin alfa (activated)'} |

Input:A new-generation ultra-long-acting basal insulin with a bolus boost compared with insulin glargine in insulin-naive people with type 2 diabetes: a randomized, controlled trial. Insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp) is a soluble coformulation of the novel basal analog insulin degludec (IDeg: 70%) and insulin aspart (IAsp: 30%). We compared the safety and efficacy of IDegAsp, an alternative formulation (AF) (55% IDeg and 45% IAsp), and insulin glargine (IGlar) in insulin-naïve subjects with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled with oral antidiabetic drugs. In this 16-week, open-label trial, subjects (mean age 59.1 years, A1C 8.5%, BMI 30.3 kg/m(2)) were randomized to once-daily IDegAsp (n = 59), AF (n = 59), or IGlar (n = 60), all in combination with metformin. Insulin was administered before the evening meal and dose-titrated to a fasting plasma glucose (FPG) target of 4.0-6.0 mmol/L. After 16 weeks, mean A1C decreased in all groups to comparable levels (IDegAsp: 7.0%; AF: 7.2%; IGlar: 7.1%). A similar proportion of subjects achieved A1C <7.0% without confirmed hypoglycemia in the last 4 weeks of treatment (IDegAsp: 51%; AF: 47%; IGlar: 50%). Mean 2-h postdinner plasma glucose increase was lower for IDegAsp (0.13 mmol/L) and AF (0.24 mmol/L) than IGlar (1.63 mmol/L), whereas mean FPG was similar (IDegAsp: 6.8 mmol/L; AF: 7.4 mmol/L; IGlar: 7.0 mmol/L). Hypoglycemia rates were lower for IDegAsp and IGlar than AF (1.2, 0.7, and 2.4 events/patient year). Nocturnal hypoglycemic events occurred rarely for IDegAsp (1 event) and IGlar (3 events) compared with AF (27 events). In this proof-of-concept trial, once-daily IDegAsp was safe, well tolerated, and provided comparable overall glycemic control to IGlar at similar low rates of hypoglycemia, but better postdinner plasma glucose control. Output: | {'conditions': 'Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2', 'interventions': 'Drug: NN5401|Drug: NN5401|Drug: insulin glargine|Drug: metformin'} |

Input:A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of adjunctive carisbamate treatment in patients with partial-onset seizures. To assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of adjunctive carisbamate treatment at 800 mg/day and 1,200 mg/day in patients with partial-onset seizures (POS). Patients ≥ 16 years of age with an established diagnosis of POS for ≥ 1 year and uncontrolled on one to three antiepileptic drugs were enrolled. Eligible patients remained on stable doses of prescribed antiepileptic drugs for an 8-week pretreatment baseline phase and were then randomized (1:1:1) to receive carisbamate (800 mg/day or 1,200 mg/day), or placebo, for a 14-week double-blind phase. Primary efficacy endpoints were percentage reduction in POS frequency and responder rate (patients with ≥ 50% reduction in POS frequency) during the double-blind versus baseline phase. Five hundred forty-seven patients were randomized; 540 composed the intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis. Four hundred thirty-four patients (79%) completed the study. The median percent reduction from baseline to treatment phase in POS frequency was: 21% (placebo); 30% (carisbamate 800 mg); 36% (carisbamate 1,200 mg), and 32% (combined carisbamate doses). The combined carisbamate dose group was not significantly different from placebo for the median percent reduction of POS frequency (p = 0.20) or responder rate (p = 0.18). Therefore, the difference from placebo for the individual carisbamate dose groups was also considered nonsignificant, based on a prespecified step-down analysis. Dizziness was the most common treatment-emergent adverse event, with a higher incidence (≥ 5% difference) in the combined carisbamate group (31%) than placebo (9%); the incidence was higher with carisbamate 1,200 mg (32%, n = 58) than with carisbamate 800 mg (30%, n = 53). Adjunctive carisbamate therapy in patients with POS did not demonstrate efficacy across the dose range assessed versus placebo. No new safety findings were observed. Output: | {'conditions': 'Epilepsy, Partial, Motor|Epilepsy, Complex Partial|Epilepsy, Simple Partial|Focal Motor Epilepsy', 'interventions': 'Drug: Carisbamate|Drug: placebo|Drug: Carisbamate'} |

Input:L-isoleucine-supplemented oral rehydration solution in the treatment of acute diarrhoea in children: a randomized controlled trial. Antimicrobial peptides represent an important component of the innate immune defenses of living organisms, including humans. They are broad-spectrum surface-acting agents secreted by the epithelial cells of the body in response to infection. Recently, L-isoleucine and its analogues have been found to induce antimicrobial peptides. The objectives of the study were to examine if addition of L-isoleucine to oral rehydration salts (ORS) solution would reduce stool output and/or duration of acute diarrhoea in children and induce antimicrobial peptides in intestine. This double-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted at the Dhaka Hospital of ICDDR,B. Fifty male children, aged 6-36 months, with acute diarrhoea and some dehydration, attending the hospital, were included in the study. Twenty-five children received L-isoleucine (2 g/L)-added ORS (study), and 25 received ORS without L-isoleucine (control). Stool weight, ORS intake, and duration of diarrhoea were the primary outcomes. There was a trend in reduction in mean +/- standard deviation (SD) daily stool output (g) of children in the L-isoleucine group from day 2 but it was significant on day 3 (388 +/- 261 vs. 653 +/- 446; the difference between mean [95% confidence interval (CI) (-)265 (-509, -20); p = 0.035]. Although the cumulative stool output from day 1 to day 3 reduced by 26% in the isoleucine group, it was not significant. Also, there was a trend in reduction in the mean +/- SD intake of ORS solution (mL) in the L-isoleucine group but it was significant only on day 1 (410 +/- 169 vs. 564 +/- 301), the difference between mean (95% CI) (-)154 (-288, -18); p = 0.04. The duration (hours) of diarrhoea was similar in both the groups. A gradual increase in stool concentrations of beta-defensin 2 and 3 was noted but they were not significantly different between the groups. L-isoleucine-supplemented ORS might be beneficial in reducing stool output and ORS intake in children with acute watery diarrhoea. A further study is warranted to substantiate the therapeutic effect of L-isoleucine. Output: | {'conditions': 'Acute Infectious Diarrhoea in Children', 'interventions': 'Other: ORS + Isoleucine|Other: ORS without Isoleucine'} |

Input:Evaluation of painful sensory symptoms in restless legs syndrome: experience from two clinical trials. Although "uncomfortable and unpleasant" limb sensations are a core symptom of restless legs syndrome (RLS), change in sensory symptomatology is usually not evaluated as a treatment outcome. In two double-blind trials, patients with idiopathic RLS (n=357 in trial 615 and 398 in trial 604) were randomized to placebo or pramipexole (optimized at 0.125, 0.25, 0.50, or 0.75 mg/day). For entry, trial 604 also required at least moderate mood disturbance. In both trials, 12-week change in RLS-related limb pain was assessed using a 100-mm visual analogue scale (VAS). At baseline, approximately 75% of patients had limb-pain scores >30. Treatment with pramipexole yielded significant score reduction as early as day 5. At week 12, median score reduction for pramipexole relative to placebo was -33.5 vs. -11.0 (p<0.0001) in trial 615 and -31.0 vs. -11.0 (p<0.0001) in trial 604. Painful sensations may be more frequent in RLS than has previously been appreciated, and their amelioration may be a facet of pramipexole's benefit even in patients with concurrent mood disturbance. Limb pain assessment, e.g., by a VAS, is a useful measure of change in RLS symptom severity. Output: | {'conditions': 'Restless Legs Syndrome', 'interventions': 'Drug: Pramipexole'} |

Input:Safety and immunogenicity of a modified process hepatitis B vaccine in healthy infants. A modified process hepatitis B vaccine (mpHBV) uses higher phosphate content in the manufacturing process relative to the current product, Recombivax-HB. The higher phosphate is thought to improve antigen presentation, and thereby, increase antibody production. The mpHBV was previously shown to be well tolerated and immunogenic in adults. The current study tested a 2-, 4-, 6-month vaccination schedule and a higher dose formulation (10 μg mpHBV) in healthy infants. In a randomized, double-blind study, healthy infants (N = 1718), approximately 2 months of age, received a 0.5-mL intramuscular dose of 5-μg mpHBV, Recombivax-HB (5 μg), 10-μg mpHBV, or Engerix-B (10 μg) at day 1, month 2, and month 4 (2, 4, 6 months of age). Serum antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) was analyzed at month 7. The geometric mean titer (GMT) and seroprotection rate (SPR; % subjects with anti-HBs titer ≥ 10 mIU/mL) were determined 1 month after the third dose. Month 7 SPRs were 99.3% (402/405, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 98.3, 100) in the 5 μg mpHBV group, 100.0% (398/398, 95% CI: 99.9, 100) in the 10 μg mpHBV group, 98.5% (400/406, 95% CI: 97.2, 99.8) in the Recombivax-HB group, and 99.5% (398/400, 95% CI: 98.7, 100) in the Engerix-B group. Month 7 GMTs (mIU/mL) were 748.2 (95% CI: 672.0, 833.1) in the 5 μg mpHBV group, 981.5 (95% CI: 891.0, 1081.2) in the 10 μg mpHBV group, 376.8 (95% CI: 331.4, 428.5) in the Recombivax-HB group, and 556.6 (95% CI: 491.8, 629.9) in the Engerix-B group. The percentages of subjects reporting injection-site or systemic adverse events were similar across the vaccination groups. All 4 hepatitis B vaccines elicited high anti-HBs SPRs. After dose 3, anti-HBs GMT were highest in the 10 μg mpHBV group, but did not meet the predefined criteria for superiority. All vaccines were well tolerated. Output: | {'conditions': 'Hepatitis B', 'interventions': 'Biological: Modified Process Hepatitis B Vaccine (Experimental)|Biological: Hepatitis B Vaccine (Recombinant)|Biological: Comparator: ENGERIX-B'} |

Input:A randomized trial of the efficacy and safety of sequential intravenous/oral moxifloxacin monotherapy versus intravenous piperacillin/tazobactam followed by oral amoxicillin/clavulanate for complicated skin and skin structure infections. The primary aim of the RELIEF study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two sequential intravenous (iv)/oral regimens: moxifloxacin iv/oral versus piperacillin/tazobactam (TZP) iv followed by oral amoxicillin/clavulanate (AMC). The study had a prospective, randomized, double-dummy, double-blind, multicentre design. Patients ≥18 years were prospectively stratified according to complicated skin and skin structure infection (cSSSI) subtype/diagnosis (major abscess, diabetic foot infection, wound infection or infected ischaemic ulcer), surgical intervention and severity of illness. Diagnoses and disease severity were based on predetermined criteria, documented by repeated photographs, and confirmed by an independent data review committee. Patients were randomized to receive either 400 mg of moxifloxacin iv once daily followed by 400 mg of moxifloxacin orally once daily or 4.0/0.5 g of TZP iv thrice daily followed by 875/125 mg of AMC orally twice daily for 7-21 days. The primary efficacy variable was clinical response at test of cure (TOC) for the per-protocol (PP) population. Clinical efficacy was assessed by the data review committee based on repeated photographs and case descriptions. Clinical trials registry number: NCT 00402727. A total of 813 patients were randomized. Clinical success rates at TOC were similar for moxifloxacin and TZP-AMC in the PP [320/361 (88.6%) versus 275/307 (89.6%), respectively; P = 0.758] and intent-to-treat (ITT) [350/426 (82.2%) versus 305/377 (80.9%), respectively; P = 0.632] populations. Thus, moxifloxacin was non-inferior to TZP-AMC. Bacteriological success rates were high in both treatment arms [moxifloxacin: 432/497 (86.9%) versus TZP-AMC: 370/429 (86.2%), microbiologically valid (MBV) population]. Moxifloxacin was non-inferior to TZP-AMC at TOC in both the MBV and the ITT populations. Both treatments were well tolerated. Once-daily iv/oral moxifloxacin monotherapy was clinically and bacteriologically non-inferior to iv TZP thrice daily followed by oral AMC twice daily in patients with cSSSIs. Output: | {'conditions': 'Abscess|Wound Infection|Diabetic Foot|Ulcer', 'interventions': 'Drug: Moxifloxacin (Avelox, BAY12-8039)|Drug: Piperacillin/Tazobactam & Amoxicillin/Clavulanic acid'} |

Input:The efficacy and safety of infliximab in patients with plaque psoriasis who had an inadequate response to etanercept: results of a prospective, multicenter, open-label study. In patients with psoriasis and inadequate response (IR) to tumor necrosis factor-α antagonist treatment, the incremental benefit of switching to another tumor necrosis factor-α antagonist is unknown. We sought to evaluate the clinical response to an etanercept-to-infliximab switch in patients with psoriasis and IR to etanercept. Adults with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and IR to etanercept (≥ 4 months) were eligible for this open-label study (called PSUNRISE). Patients had a Physician Global Assessment (PGA) score of at least 2 (mild) on a 5-point scale with etanercept, with or without concomitant oral systemic methotrexate or cyclosporine at baseline and during the study. Patients received intravenous infusions of infliximab 5 mg/kg at weeks 0, 2, 6, 14, and 22. PGA was used to evaluate efficacy at week 10 (primary end point) and week 26 (durability). Safety was evaluated through the end of the study. Of 215 patients, only 10 received concomitant immunomodulators. At week 10, 65.4% of patients (138 of 211; 95% confidence interval 58.6%-71.8%) achieved a PGA score of clear (0) or minimal (1) (primary end point). This response was durable through week 26, at which time 61.3% (122 of 199; 95% confidence interval 54.2%-68.1%) achieved a PGA score of clear (0) or minimal (1). There were no unexpected side effects or safety concerns. This was an open-label, 26-week study; an incremental change of 1 PGA point, even mild to minimal, was considered clinically significant, as most psoriasis practitioners seek to achieve minimal psoriasis or clear skin. After switching to infliximab, a substantial proportion of patients with psoriasis and IR to etanercept experienced rapid and durable improvement. Output: | {'conditions': 'Psoriasis', 'interventions': 'Biological: infliximab'} |

Input:Single versus double intrauterine insemination in multi-follicular ovarian hyperstimulation cycles: a randomized trial. The rationale for double insemination is to create the opportunity for a longer fertilization period as follicle rupture may occur over a wide interval (approximately 22-47 h) after hCG administration in ovarian hyperstimulation (OH) with intrauterine insemination (IUI) cycles. This randomized study evaluates the effectiveness of single versus double IUI in only OH cycles with multi-follicular development. We conducted a single center trial, 228 eligible patients were randomized for this study on the day of hCG. Only cycles with multi-follicular development without premature luteinization (progesterone levels >1 ng/ml on the day of hCG), were included in the study. Multi-follicular development has been defined as at least two dominant follicles reaching minimum > or = 15 mm diameter in which one of them is >17 mm. OH cycles with more than five dominant follicles (>15 mm in diameter) were excluded from the study. In the single IUI group (Group 1 = 112 patients) IUI was applied 36 h after the hCG injection and in the double IUI group (Group 2 = 114 patients) the first IUI was performed 18 h after hCG administration and the second IUI was performed 40 h after hCG administration. The primary end-point is to compare live birth rates (LBRs) between single and double IUI arms. LBRs were 10.7% (12/112 patients) in the single IUI group and 12.3% (14/114) in the double IUI group and the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.835, OR = 1.16, 95% CI: 0.51-2.64). In the unexplained infertility group the LBR was 11.1% (5/45 patients) with single IUI and 18.4% (9/49) with double IUI (P = 0.393). In the mild male factor group this rate was 10.4% (7/67) and 7.7% (5/65) in the single and double IUI groups, respectively (P = 0.764). Our study did not find any difference in LBRs between single and double IUI groups in OH cycles with multi-follicular development. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report with this kind of study design. The study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov: NCT 00993902. Output: | {'conditions': 'Infertility', 'interventions': 'Procedure: Intrauterine insemination (single)|Procedure: Double intrauterine insemination'} |

Input:Phase II study of tight glycaemic control in COPD patients with exacerbations admitted to the acute medical unit. Hyperglycaemia is associated with poor outcomes from exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Glycaemic control could improve outcomes by reducing infection, inflammation and myopathy. Most patients with COPD are managed on the acute medical unit (AMU) outside intensive care (ICU). To determine the feasibility, safety and efficacy of tight glycaemic control in patients on an AMU. Prospective, non-randomised, phase II, single-arm study of tight glycaemic control in COPD patients with acute exacerbations and hyperglycaemia admitted to the AMU. Participants received intravenous, then subcutaneous, insulin to control blood glucose to 4.4-6.5 mmol/l. Tight glycaemic control was evaluated: feasibility, protocol adherence; acceptability, patient questionnaire; safety, frequency of hypoglycaemia (capillary blood glucose (CBG) <2.2 mmol/l and 2.2-3.3 mmol/l); efficacy, median CBG, fasting CBG, proportion of measurements/time in target range, glycaemic variability. were compared with 25 published ICU studies. Results 20 patients (10 females, age 71 ± 9 years; forced expiratory volume in 1 s: 41 ± 16% predicted) were recruited. Tight glycaemic control was feasible (78% CBG measurements and 89% of insulin-dose adjustments were adherent to protocol) and acceptable to patients. 0.2% CBG measurements were <2.2 mmol/l and 4.1% measurements 2.2-3.3 mmol/l. The study CBG and proportion of measurements/time in target range were similar to that of ICU studies, whereas the fasting CBG was lower, and the glycaemic variability was greater. Tight glycaemic control is feasible and has similar safety and efficacy on AMU to ICU. However, as more recent ICU studies have shown no benefit and possible harm from tight glycaemic control, alternative strategies for blood glucose control in COPD exacerbations should now be explored. Trial registration number ISRCTN: 42412334. http://Clinical.Trials.gov NCT00764556. Output: | {'conditions': 'COPD|Hyperglycemia', 'interventions': 'Drug: Insulin'} |

Input:Prevention of postoperative hypocalcemia with routine oral calcium and vitamin D supplements in patients with differentiated papillary thyroid carcinoma undergoing total thyroidectomy plus central neck dissection. Routine oral calcium and vitamin D supplementation may prevent hypocalcemic crisis, but its efficacy has not been studied in patients undergoing thyroidectomy plus central neck dissection (CND). The authors therefore prospectively evaluated the clinical usefulness of routine oral calcium and vitamin D supplementation for prevention of hypocalcemia after total thyroidectomy and CND. Of 197 patients with differentiated papillary thyroid carcinoma, 49 underwent total thyroidectomy alone, and 148 underwent total thyroidectomy plus CND. The latter were randomized to oral calcium (3 g/day) plus vitamin D (1 mg/day) (Group A, n=49), calcium alone (Group B, n=49), or no supplements (Group C, n=50). Hypocalcemic symptoms, serum calcium, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels were compared among the groups. Group C had significantly higher incidences of symptomatic (26.0% vs 6.1%; P<.015) and laboratory (44.0% vs 14.3%; P<.015) hypocalcemia than the group without CND. The incidences of symptomatic and laboratory hypocalcemia were significantly decreased in Groups A (2.0% and 8.2%, respectively) and B (12.2% and 24.5%, respectively) (P<.05). Serum calcium levels decreased in most patients after surgery, but recovered earliest in Group A. Hypercalcemia and PTH inhibition did not occur in gs A and B. Compared with total thyroidectomy alone, CND significantly increases the rate of postoperative hypocalcemia, which can be prevented by routine postoperative supplementation with oral calcium and vitamin D. Output: | {'conditions': 'Hypocalcemia', 'interventions': 'Dietary Supplement: Oral calcium plus vitamin D|Dietary Supplement: Oral calcium alone'} |

Input:Antibody response to insulin in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed Type 1 diabetes. To compare levels of insulin antibodies in children and adolescents after initiation of insulin therapy using either insulin aspart (IAsp) or human insulin (HI) in combination with Neutral Protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulin, and to investigate the relationships between insulin antibodies and HbA(1c) and insulin dose. IAsp-specific antibodies (IAsp-Ab) and antibodies cross-reacting with HI and IAsp (HI-cross-Ab) were analysed by radioimmunoassay at diagnosis of diabetes and every 3-6 months for 30 months. Seventy-two patients (HI = 30, IAsp = 42) with Type 1 diabetes, aged 2-17 years were included. Data on HbA(1c), insulin dose and serious adverse events (SAEs) were collected retrospectively. IAsp-Ab levels remained low throughout the study. After 9 months, the level of HI-cross-Ab increased [mean (SD) HI, 48.8% (21.53); IAsp, 40.2% (17.92)] and remained elevated. Repeated measurement analysis of HI-cross-Ab levels showed no significant difference between treatments (P = 0.16). HI-cross-Ab were significantly associated with total insulin dose (U/kg) (P = 0.001) and time (P < 0.0001), but not with HbA(1c) (P = 0.24). Mean (+/- SD) HbA(1c) was similar at diagnosis (HI 9.5 +/- 1.97%; IAsp 9.6 +/- 1.62%); HbA(1c) then decreased and stabilized to about 6.0% in both groups. Few SAEs were reported, the majority being hypoglycaemic episodes. Treatment with IAsp and with HI was associated with an increase in HI-cross-Ab in insulin-naive children, but this did not influence treatment efficacy or safety. These results support the safe use of IAsp in children and adolescents with Type 1 diabetes. Output: | {'conditions': 'Diabetes|Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1', 'interventions': 'Drug: soluble human insulin|Drug: isophane human insulin|Drug: insulin aspart'} |

Input:Outcome after anterior vaginal prolapse repair: a randomized controlled trial. To report 1-year outcomes of a randomized controlled trial comparing polypropylene mesh-reinforced anterior vaginal prolapse repair with anterior colporrhaphy. Seventy-six patients with stage II or greater anterior vaginal prolapse were randomly assigned to either colporrhaphy or polypropylene mesh repair. The primary outcome was recurrent stage II anterior vaginal prolapse, and secondary outcomes were effects on quality of life and sexual symptom scores, operative time, blood loss, length of hospitalization, and adverse events. Thirty-eight women had anterior colporrhaphy, and 37 had polypropylene mesh repair. One patient allocated to mesh repair withdrew from the study before surgery. Clinical and demographic data did not differ significantly between the two treatment groups. One year after surgery, optimal and satisfactory anterior vaginal support were obtained in 21 of 38 (55%) of the colporrhaphy group and 33 of 38 (87%) of the mesh group (P=.005). Patients in both groups reported less bother after surgery in both prolapse and urinary symptoms. The rates of de novo dyspareunia were 4 of 26 (16%) and 2 of 23 (9%) in the colporrhaphy and mesh groups, respectively. Two of 37 (5%) patients had vaginal mesh extrusion. Nine anterior colporrhaphy patients would have to have recurrent anterior vaginal prolapse to prevent one vaginal mesh extrusion. Neither serious adverse events nor deaths occurred in either group. Anterior vaginal prolapse repair with polypropylene mesh reinforcement offers lower anatomic recurrence than anterior colporrhaphy at one year. However, quality of life and sexual symptoms scores improved in both groups. Output: | {'conditions': 'Cystocele|Uterine Prolapse|Urinary Incontinence', 'interventions': 'Device: grafted anterior prolapse repair|Procedure: sutured anterior vaginal prolapse repair'} |

Input:Performance of a new leadless implantable cardiac monitor in detecting and quantifying atrial fibrillation: Results of the XPECT trial. Current methods for detecting atrial fibrillation (AF) have limited diagnostic yield. Continuous monitoring with automatic arrhythmia detection and classification may improve detection of symptomatic and asymptomatic AF and subsequent patient treatment. The study purpose was to quantify the performance of the first implantable leadless cardiac monitor (ICM) with dedicated AF detection capabilities. Patients (n=247) with an implanted ICM (Reveal XT, Medtronic Inc, Minneapolis, Minn) who were likely to present with paroxysmal AF were selected. A special Holter device stored 46 hours of subcutaneously recorded ECG, ICM markers, and 2 surface ECG leads. The ICM automatic arrhythmia classification was compared with the core laboratory classification of the surface ECG. Of the 206 analyzable Holter recordings collected, 76 (37%) contained at least 1 episode of core laboratory classified AF. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for identifying patients with any AF were 96.1%, 85.4%, 79.3%, and 97.4%, respectively. The AF burden measured with the ICM was very well correlated with the reference value derived from the Holter (Pearson coefficient=0.97). The overall accuracy of the ICM for detecting AF was 98.5%. In this ICM validation study, the dedicated AF detection algorithm reliably detected the presence or absence of AF and the AF burden was accurately quantified. The ICM is a promising new diagnostic and monitoring tool for the clinician to treat AF patients independently of symptoms. Long-term studies are needed to evaluate the clinical benefits of the technology. Output: | {'conditions': 'Atrial Fibrillation|Risk of Cardiac Arrhythmias', 'interventions': 'Other: 46 hrs Holter ECG recording'} |

Input:Pirfenidone in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (CAPACITY): two randomised trials. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive and fatal lung disease with inevitable loss of lung function. The CAPACITY programme (studies 004 and 006) was designed to confirm the results of a phase 2 study that suggested that pirfenidone, a novel antifibrotic and anti-inflammatory drug, reduces deterioration in lung function in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. In two concurrent trials (004 and 006), patients (aged 40-80 years) with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis were randomly assigned to oral pirfenidone or placebo for a minimum of 72 weeks in 110 centres in Australia, Europe, and North America. In study 004, patients were assigned in a 2:1:2 ratio to pirfenidone 2403 mg/day, pirfenidone 1197 mg/day, or placebo; in study 006, patients were assigned in a 1:1 ratio to pirfenidone 2403 mg/day or placebo. The randomisation code (permuted block design) was computer generated and stratified by region. All study personnel were masked to treatment group assignment until after final database lock. Treatments were administered orally, 801 mg or 399 mg three times a day. The primary endpoint was change in percentage predicted forced vital capacity (FVC) at week 72. Analysis was by intention to treat. The studies are registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, numbers NCT00287729 and NCT00287716. In study 004, 174 of 435 patients were assigned to pirfenidone 2403 mg/day, 87 to pirfenidone 1197 mg/day, and 174 to placebo. In study 006, 171 of 344 patients were assigned to pirfenidone 2403 mg/day, and 173 to placebo. All patients in both studies were analysed. In study 004, pirfenidone reduced decline in FVC (p=0·001). Mean FVC change at week 72 was -8·0% (SD 16·5) in the pirfenidone 2403 mg/day group and -12·4% (18·5) in the placebo group (difference 4·4%, 95% CI 0·7 to 9·1); 35 (20%) of 174 versus 60 (35%) of 174 patients, respectively, had a decline of at least 10%. A significant treatment effect was noted at all timepoints from week 24 and in an analysis over all study timepoints (p=0·0007). Mean change in percentage FVC in the pirfenidone 1197 mg/day group was intermediate to that in the pirfenidone 2403 mg/day and placebo groups. In study 006, the difference between groups in FVC change at week 72 was not significant (p=0·501). Mean change in FVC at week 72 was -9·0% (SD 19·6) in the pirfenidone group and -9·6% (19·1) in the placebo group, and the difference between groups in predicted FVC change at week 72 was not significant (0·6%, -3·5 to 4·7); however, a consistent pirfenidone effect was apparent until week 48 (p=0·005) and in an analysis of all study timepoints (p=0·007). Patients in the pirfenidone 2403 mg/day group had higher incidences of nausea (125 [36%] of 345 vs 60 [17%] of 347), dyspepsia (66 [19%] vs 26 [7%]), vomiting (47 [14%] vs 15 [4%]), anorexia (37 [11%] vs 13 [4%]), photosensitivity (42 [12%] vs 6 [2%]), rash (111 [32%] vs 40 [12%]), and dizziness (63 [18%] vs 35 [10%]) than did those in the placebo group. Fewer overall deaths (19 [6%] vs 29 [8%]) and fewer deaths related to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (12 [3%] vs 25 [7%]) occurred in the pirfenidone 2403 mg/day groups than in the placebo groups. The data show pirfenidone has a favourable benefit risk profile and represents an appropriate treatment option for patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. InterMune.

Input:Standard graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis with or without anti-T-cell globulin in haematopoietic cell transplantation from matched unrelated donors: a randomised, open-label, multicentre phase 3 trial. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality after allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation from unrelated donors. Anti-T-cell globulins (ATGs) might lower the incidence of GVHD. We did a prospective, randomised, multicentre, open-label, phase 3 trial to compare standard GVHD prophylaxis with ciclosporin and methotrexate with or without anti-Jurkat ATG-Fresenius (ATG-F). Between May 26, 2003, and Feb 8, 2007, 202 patients with haematological malignancies were centrally randomly assigned using computer-generated centre-stratified block randomisation between treatment groups receiving ciclosporin and methotrexate with or without additional ATG-F. One patient in the ATG-F group did not undergo transplantation, thus 201 patients who underwent transplantation with peripheral blood (n=164; 82%) or bone marrow (n=37; 18%) grafts from unrelated donors after myeloablative conditioning were included in the full analysis set, and were analysed according to their randomly assigned treatment (ATG-F n=103, control n=98). The primary endpoint was severe acute GVHD (aGVHD) grade III-IV or death within 100 days of transplantation. The trial is registered with the numbers DRKS00000002 and NCT00655343. The number of patients in the ATG-F group who had severe aGVHD grade III-IV or who died within 100 days of transplantation was 12 and 10 (21.4%, 95% CI 13.4-29.3), respectively, compared with 24 and nine (33.7%, 24.3-43.0) patients, respectively, in the control group (adjusted odds ratio 0.59, 95% CI 0.30-1.17; p=0.13). The cumulative incidence of aGVHD grade III-IV was 11.7% (95% CI 6.8-19.8) in the ATG-F group versus 24.5% (17.3-34.7) in the control group (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 0.50, 95% CI 0.25-1.01; p=0.054), and cumulative incidence of aGVHD grade II-IV was 33.0% (n=34; 95% CI 25.1-43.5) in the ATG-F group versus 51.0% (n=50; 95% CI 42.0-61.9) in the control group (adjusted HR 0.56, 0.36-0.87; p=0.011). The 2-year cumulative incidence of extensive chronic GVHD was 12.2% (n=11; 95% CI 7.0-21.3) versus 42.6% (n=34; 95% CI 33.0-55.0; adjusted HR 0.22, 0.11-0.43; p<0.0001). There were no differences between treatment groups with regard to relapse, non-relapse mortality, overall survival, and mortality from infectious causes. The addition of ATG-F to GVHD prophylaxis with ciclosporin and methotrexate resulted in decreased incidence of acute and chronic GVHD without an increase in relapse or non-relapse mortality, and without compromising overall survival. The use of ATG-F is safe for patients who are going to receive a haematopoietic cell transplantation from matched unrelated donors. Fresenius Biotech GmbH.

Input:Randomized phase III study of canfosfamide in combination with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin compared with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin alone in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of canfosfamide in combination with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (OC). Patients with platinum-refractory or -resistant (primary or secondary) OC were randomized to receive canfosfamide at 1000 mg/m² and PLD at 50 mg/m² intravenously or PLD alone at 50 mg/m2 intravenously on day 1 every 28 days until tumor progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). Other end points were objective response rate and safety. The study was originally planned for 244 patients. The trial was temporarily placed on hold after 125 patients were randomized while the results of another trial were being reviewed and the sponsor decided not to resume enrollment. The interim analysis became the final analysis. The median PFS was 5.6 months for canfosfamide + PLD (n = 65) versus 3.7 months for PLD (n = 60) (hazards ratio, 0.92; P = 0.7243). A preplanned subgroup analysis showed that 75 patients with platinum-refractory or primary platinum-resistant OC had a median PFS of 5.6 months for canfosfamide + PLD versus 2.9 months for PLD (hazards ratio, 0.55; P = 0.0425). Hematologic adverse events were 66% on the canfosfamide + PLD arm versus 44% on the PLD arm, manageable with dose reductions. Nonhematologic adverse events were similar for both arms. The incidence of palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia and stomatitiswas lower on canfosfamide + PLD(23%, 31%, respectively) versus (39%, 49%, respectively) on PLD. Overall median PFS showed a positive trend but was not statistically significant. The median PFS in the platinum-refractory and primary platinum-resistant OC patients was significantly longer for canfosfamide + PLD versus PLD. Canfosfamide may ameliorate the palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia and stomatitis known to be associated with PLD. Further study of this active well-tolerated regimen in platinum-refractory and primary platinum-resistant OC is planned. This study was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov: NCT00350948.

Input:Safety and immunogenicity of a tetravalent live-attenuated dengue vaccine in flavivirus-naive infants. A Phase I/II observer-blind, randomized, controlled trial evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of a dengue virus (DENV) vaccine candidate in healthy Thai infants (aged 12-15 months) without measurable pre-vaccination neutralizing antibodies to DENV and Japanese encephalitis virus. Fifty-one subjects received two doses of either DENV (N = 34; four received 1/10th dose) or control vaccine (N = 17; dose 1, live varicella; dose 2, Haemophilus influenzae type b). After each vaccine dose, adverse events (AEs) were solicited for 21 days, and non-serious AEs were solicited for 30 days; serious AEs (SAEs) were recorded throughout the study. Laboratory safety assessments were performed at 10 and 30 days; neutralizing antibodies were measured at 30 days. The DENV vaccine was well-tolerated without any related SAEs. After the second dose, 85.7% of full-dose DENV vaccinees developed at least trivalent and 53.6% developed tetravalent neutralizing antibodies ≥ 1:10 to DENV (control group = 0%). This vaccine candidate, therefore, warrants continued development in this age group (NCT00322049; clinicaltrials.gov).

Input:A randomized, placebo- and active-controlled, parallel-group, multicentre, investigator-blinded study of four treatment regimens of posaconazole in adults with toenail onychomycosis. Onychomycosis accounts for up to 50% of all onychopathies. To evaluate the efficacy of four posaconazole regimens compared with placebo in the treatment of toenail onychomycosis, to assess the safety and tolerability of posaconazole, and to estimate the relative efficacy of posaconazole against terbinafine. A phase 2B, randomized, placebo- and active-controlled, parallel-group, multicentre, investigator-blinded (double blind for placebo) study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00491764). Onychomycosis patients aged 18-75years (n=218) were randomized equally to one of six treatment regimens: posaconazole (oral suspension) 100, 200 or 400mg once daily (24weeks); posaconazole 400 mg once daily (12weeks); terbinafine (tablets) 250mg once daily (12weeks); or placebo (24weeks). The primary efficacy variable was complete cure (negative mycology and 0% nail involvement) at week 48. All posaconazole treatment arms had a significantly (P≤0·012) greater proportion of patients with complete cure at week 48 compared with placebo. The proportions of patients with complete cure were numerically higher for posaconazole 200mg/24weeks (54·1%) and 400mg/24weeks (45·5%), but lower for 400mg/12weeks (20%) compared with terbinafine (37%; differences were not statistically significant). Posaconazole was well tolerated. Seven patients receiving posaconazole withdrew because of asymptomatic liver enzyme increases, as mandated by protocol discontinuation criteria. The efficacy and favourable safety profile of posaconazole suggest a potential new treatment for onychomycosis. The availability of low-cost generic terbinafine may limit posaconazole use to second-line treatment of infections refractory to, or patients intolerant of, terbinafine, or nondermatophyte mould infections.

Input:Topical treatment of hypertensive leg ulcers with platelet-derived growth factor-BB: a randomized controlled trial. To determine the healing effect of topical becaplermin gel vs hydrogel dressing on hypertensive leg ulcers. Randomized, double-blind, parallel-assignment, controlled study. Ambulatory or hospitalized patients from 17 dermatology departments. Among 64 consecutive randomized patients with 1 or more hypertensive leg ulcers who fulfilled all inclusion criteria, 59 received the allocated intervention, and findings were analyzed. Becaplermin gel (human recombinant platelet-derived growth factor-BB, 0.1%, in hydrogel) or hydrogel dressing was applied, both in doses of 1 cm/cm(2), once daily for 8 weeks. Follow-up continued for 4 weeks beyond the final gel application. The primary end point was complete wound closure rate after 8 weeks of treatment. Secondary end points were percentages of patients with complete wound closure at week 12; changed ulcer area after treatment vs baseline; and changed ulcer-related pain and health-related quality of life during the study. Complete wound closure rates were comparable after 8 weeks for becaplermin (5 of 28 patients) and hydrogel (3 of 31 patients) (8 percentage-point difference; 95% confidence interval, -10% to 26%). No statistically significant differences were observed between the 2 groups for percentages of complete closure at week 12, changed ulcer area at week 8, or changed ulcer-related pain and quality of life during the study (P > .05 for all comparisons). Topical becaplermin gel is not superior to hydrogel dressing for hypertensive leg ulcer wound closure. Surgical management by grafting remains the most promising treatment strategy but requires further evaluation. Trial Registration clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT00970697.

Input:Comparative efficacy and safety profile of amlodipine 5 mg/losartan 50 mg fixed-dose combination and amlodipine 10 mg monotherapy in hypertensive patients who respond poorly to amlodipine 5 mg monotherapy: an 8-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind phase III noninferiority study. The number of hypertensive patients achieving treatment targets is not ideal with therapies that engage a single mechanism of action, and combination therapies using different mechanisms of action can increase drug efficacy in a synergistic way. This noninferiority study compared the clinical efficacy and safety profile of fixed-dose combination of amlodipine/losartan 5/50 mg and amlodipine 10 mg monotherapy in essential hypertensive patients who respond poorly to amlodipine 5 mg monotherapy. This was a double-blind, multicenter, randomized trial of hypertensive patients (N = 185) aged ≥18 years taking amlodipine 5 mg during the run-in treatment period but failed to achieve sitting diastolic blood pressure (DBP) <90 mm Hg. After randomization into the amlodipine/losartan 5/50 mg fixed-dose combination group (n = 92) and the amlodipine 10 mg monotherapy group (n = 93), treatment was maintained without dose escalation for 8 weeks. The noninferiority margin was prespecified as 4 mm Hg after 8 weeks of treatment for the difference of the average change in DBP between treatments. The primary efficacy evaluation of noninferiority was tested using a confidence interval approach with a 97.5% 1-sided lower confidence limit using the average difference in DBP measured at baseline and 8 weeks. After 8 weeks, the DBP of both groups decreased from baseline by 8.9 (6.1) and 9.4 (7.5) mm Hg, respectively (difference = -0.5 [6.9] mm Hg, 95% CI: -2.5 to 1.5). Secondary end points of reductions in DBP after 4 weeks (-8.1 [6.7] vs -9.9 [7.3] mm Hg, difference = -1.8 mm Hg, 95% CI: -3.9 to 0.2) and sitting systolic blood pressure after 4 (-10.2 [11.8] vs -12.8 [10.2] mm Hg, difference = -2.6 mm Hg, 95% CI: -5.9 to 0.6) and 8 weeks (-12.2 [11.0] vs -13.4 [11.3] mm Hg, difference = -1.2 mmHg, 95% CI: -4.4 to 2.1) were comparable between the 2 treatment groups. There were 38 adverse events in 20 patients (21.7%) in the amlodipine/losartan 5/50 mg fixed-dose combination group and 31 in 24 patients (26.1%) in the amlodipine 10 mg monotherapy group; most were mild. There were 7 adverse events in 6 patients (6.5%) related to treatment in the fixed-dose combination group and 13 in 10 patients (10.9%) in the monotherapy group (P = 0.30). Fixed-dose combination amlodipine/losartan 5/50 mg was not inferior in terms of reductions in DBP after 8 weeks of treatment and had comparable safety profile to amlodipine 10 mg in patients who did not respond to amlodipine 5 mg monotherapy.

Input:Booster vaccination of pre-school children with reduced-antigen-content diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis-inactivated poliovirus vaccine co-administered with measles-mumps-rubella-varicella vaccine: a randomized, controlled trial in children primed according to a 2 + 1 schedule in infancy. Pertussis occurs in older children, adolescents and adults due to waning immunity after primary vaccination. Booster vaccination for pre-school children has been recommended in Italy since 1999. In this study (NCT00871000), the immunogenicity, safety and reactogenicity of a booster dose of reduced-antigen content diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis-inactivated poliovirus vaccine (dTpa-IPV; GSK Biologicals Boostrix™-Polio; 3-component pertussis) vs. full-strength DTPa-IPV vaccine (sanofi-pasteur--MSD Tetravac™; 2-component pertussis) was evaluated in pre-school Italian children. Healthy children aged 5-6 y primed in a routine vaccination setting with three doses of DTPa-based vaccines were enrolled and randomized (1:1) in this phase IIIb, booster study to receive a single dose of dTpa-IPV or DTPa-IPV; the MMRV vaccine was co-administered. Antibody concentrations/titers against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis and poliovirus 1-3 were measured before and one month post-booster. Reactogenicity and safety was assessed. 305 subjects were enrolled of whom 303 (dTpa-IPV = 151; DTPa-IPV = 152) received booster vaccination. One month post-booster, all subjects were seroprotected/seropositive for anti-diphtheria, anti-tetanus, anti-PT, anti-FHA and anti-poliovirus 1-3; 99.3% of dTpa-IPV and 60.4% of DTPa-IPV subjects were seropositive for anti-PRN; 98-100% of subjects were seropositive against MMRV antigens post-booster. Pain at the injection site (dTpa-IPV: 63.6%; DTPa-IPV: 63.2%) and fatigue (dTpa-IPV: 26.5%; DTPa-IPV: 23.7%) were the most commonly reported solicited local and general symptoms, during the 4-d follow-up period. No SAEs or fatalities were reported. The reduced-antigen-content dTpa-IPV vaccine was non-inferior to full-strength DTPa-IPV vaccine with respect to immunogenicity. The vaccine was well-tolerated and can be confidently used as a booster dose in pre-school children.

Input:Economic evaluation of home blood pressure telemonitoring: a randomized controlled trial. The purpose of the present study was to compare the costs of home blood pressure (BP) telemonitoring (HBPM) with the costs of conventional office BP monitoring. In a randomized controlled trial, 105 hypertensive patients performed HBPM and 118 patients received usual care with conventional office BP monitoring during 6 months. Costs were quantified from the healthcare perspective. Non-parametric simulations were performed to quantify the uncertainty around the mean estimates and cost-effectiveness acceptability curves were made. Systolic and diastolic daytime and night-time ambulatory BP (ABP) were reduced in both groups. The uncertainty around the incremental cost effectiveness ratio point estimates was considerable for both systolic and diastolic ABP. For systolic ABP, the difference in cost effectiveness ratio between the two groups was 256 Danish kroner (DKK)/mmHg [95% uncertainty interval, UI -860 to 4544]. For diastolic ABP, the difference in cost effectiveness ratio between the two groups was 655 DKK/mmHg [95% UI -674 to 69315]. Medication and consultation costs were lowest in the intervention group, but were offset by the cost of the telemonitoring equipment. Cost-effectiveness analysis showed that telemonitoring of home BP was more costly compared with usual monitoring of office BP. The cost-effectiveness result is surrounded with considerable uncertainty. Output: | {'conditions': 'Hypertension', 'interventions': 'Device: Telemedical blood pressure monitoring'} |

Input:Randomized trial of fortified milk and supplements to raise 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations in schoolchildren in Mongolia. The optimal public health strategy for maintaining 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations in schoolchildren in Mongolia is unknown. The objective was to compare the effectiveness of different supplement and fortified milk regimens to increase 25(OH)D concentrations in Mongolian schoolchildren. Twenty-one classrooms of 579 children aged 9-11 y were randomized to interventions with an equivalent content of vitamin D(3): 1) a one-time seasonal supplement of 13,700 IU, 2) 300 IU/d from supplements, 3) 300 IU/d from fortified ultra-high-temperature pasteurized milk from the United States, 4) 300 IU/d from fortified pasteurized Mongolian milk, or 5) unfortified pasteurized Mongolian milk (control). In January, the mean (±SD) serum 25(OH)D concentration was 8 ± 4 ng/mL (20 ± 10 nmol/L), and 98% of the children had a concentration <20 ng/mL (50 nmol/L). In March, concentrations were 8 ± 4 ng/mL after unfortified milk, 20 ± 6 ng/mL after fortified Mongolian milk, 29 ± 10 ng/mL after fortified US milk, 21 ± 6 ng/mL after daily supplements, and 12 ± 4 ng/mL after seasonal supplements (each greater than unfortified milk, P < 0.01). Seasonal supplementation was less effective than was daily supplementation (P < 0.0001). Despite consuming daily supplements or fortified milk, 41% of the children still had concentrations <20 ng/mL (50 nmol/L). Children with lower baseline 25(OH)D concentrations experienced slightly larger 25(OH)D responses to intervention than did children with higher concentrations (P = 0.002). In this population with extremely low vitamin D concentrations, delivery of 300 IU vitamin D/d via supplements or in fortified milk improved 25(OH)D concentrations but failed to raise concentrations uniformly to >20 ng/mL (50 nmol/L). The daily low-dose intervention was superior to the seasonal larger-dose intervention. Higher doses may be needed to prevent deficiency in schoolchildren in Mongolia and at other northern latitudes. This trial is registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00886379.

Input:A randomized controlled trial of allopurinol vs. placebo added on to antipsychotics in patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. Adenosine agonists produce behavioral effects similar to dopamine antagonists, hence increasing adenosine levels might improve symptoms of schizophrenia. This hypothesis is supported by three single-site studies indicating that allopurinol, which increases adenosine levels, improved symptoms in patients with schizophrenia. We performed a multi-center, 8-week RCT of allopurinol vs. placebo added to anti-psychotic medications in 248 patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. Both groups showed improvement in the PANSS (effect size 1.13) and in clinical and cognitive measures. No difference was observed between groups in primary (t=0.01, p=0.992) or secondary outcome measures. These findings do not support allopurinol as a treatment for schizophrenia. Output: | {'conditions': 'Schizophrenia|Schizoaffective Disorder', 'interventions': 'Drug: Allopurinol'} |

Input:Ovarian suppression in normal-weight and obese women during oral contraceptive use: a randomized controlled trial. To assess ovarian suppression during oral contraceptive pill (OCP) use among normal-weight and obese women using two OCP doses. This was a prospective, double-blind, randomized trial of two 21-day monophasic OCP formulations (20-microgram ethinyl estradiol [E2],/100-microgram levonorgestrel compared with 30-microgram ethinyl E2/150-microgram levonorgestrel) among normal-weight (body mass index 19.0-24.9) and obese (body mass index 30.0-39.9) women with regular menses and normal ovarian ultrasonography. Participants underwent transvaginal ultrasonography and phlebotomy twice weekly for 4 weeks during the third or fourth OCP cycle. We assessed OCP compliance using serum levonorgestrel levels. Outcomes included follicular development, endogenous E2 levels, ovulation, and self-reported bleeding patterns. Two hundred twenty-six women enrolled. One hundred eighty-one participants completed the study; we retained 150 consistent OCP users in the main analysis (96 normal weight, 54 obese). Consistent users of either OCP dose had substantial suppression of follicular development; obesity and follicular development were not related. Among the consistent OCP users, 2.7% ovulated during the study cycle (3 of 96 normal-weight and 1 of 54 obese participants). Two ovulations occurred with each OCP formulation. Inconsistent OCP use or nonuse during the study cycle was associated with more ovulation (P<.001). Normal-weight and obese participants had similar follicular development, endogenous estradiol levels, Hoogland scores, and bleeding patterns. Normal-weight and obese participants who were consistent OCP users experienced substantial and comparable ovarian suppression during OCP use. Higher OCP failure rates among obese women reported elsewhere are thus unlikely to be attributable to physiological differences in OCP effect.

Input:The effect of budesonide/formoterol pressurized metered-dose inhaler on predefined criteria for worsening asthma in four different patient populations with asthma. Previous studies have shown disparities between Black and Hispanic patients compared with other populations in response to asthma medications. The aim of this analysis was to assess the effect of budesonide/formoterol pressurized metered-dose inhaler (BUD/FM pMDI) and BUD on predefined criteria for asthma worsening, an asthma control metric generally aligned with definitions of moderate asthma exacerbations, across four different populations. Data were from four 12-week, randomized, double-blind, US studies of BUD/FM pMDI treatment in patients aged 12 years or older with varying asthma severities and of varying races. Predefined asthma events and withdrawals due to predefined events were assessed as secondary study endpoints. Study I (NCT00651651) includes data from predominantly White patients with mild to moderate asthma who were randomized to BUD/FM pMDI 160/9 μg twice daily (bid; n = 123) or BUD pMDI 160 μg bid (n = 121). Study II (NCT00652002) includes data from predominantly White patients with moderate to severe asthma who were randomized to BUD/FM pMDI 320/9 μg bid (n = 124) or BUD pMDI 320 μg bid (n = 109). Study III (NCT00702325) included self-reported Black patients with moderate to severe asthma who were randomized to BUD/FM pMDI 320/9 μg bid (n = 153) or BUD dry powder inhaler 360 μg bid (n = 148). Study IV (NCT00419757) included self-reported Hispanic patients with moderate to severe asthma who were randomized to BUD/FM pMDI 320/9 μg bid (n = 127) or BUD pMDI 320 μg bid (n = 123). Patients were to be withdrawn from the studies if they developed an asthma event, as determined by predefined criteria, except for night-time awakenings, where withdrawal was left to the study physician's judgment. Overall, fewer patients in the studies (study I, II, III, and IV, respectively) experienced ≥1 asthma event in the BUD/FM group (18.7%, 29.8%, 37.3%, 25.2%) versus the BUD group (21.5%, 44.0%, 45.3%, 31.7%); only study II results showed a statistically significant difference between treatments. Fewer patients with moderate to severe asthma (studies II, III, and IV) were withdrawn due to ≥1 asthma event in the BUD/FM group (10.5%, 11.8%, 3.1%, respectively) than in the BUD group (20.2%, 18.9%, 6.5%, respectively); however, percentages were similar in the BUD/FM (7.3%) and BUD (6.6%) groups in patients with mild to moderate asthma (study I). Predefined asthma event rates were numerically or significantly lower for patients with asthma receiving BUD/FM pMDI versus BUD, regardless of race or disease severity. Differences between the BUD/FM pMDI and BUD groups were smaller in patients with mild to moderate asthma than in those with moderate to severe asthma, most likely because patients with milder disease had lower asthma event rates. Overall, these findings support the efficacy of BUD/FM pMDI in achieving asthma control in patients with moderate to severe asthma. Output: | {'conditions': 'Asthma', 'interventions': 'Drug: Budesonide / formoterol fumarate (SYMBICORT)|Drug: Budesonide'} |

Input:One-year efficacy and safety study of a 1.62% testosterone gel in hypogonadal men: results of a 182-day open-label extension of a 6-month double-blind study. A new formulation of testosterone gel (1.62% testosterone gel) with increased viscosity and reduced volume of application has been shown to be safe and efficacious after 182 days of use in a phase 3, double-blind study in adult hypogonadal males. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the 1.62% testosterone gel after daily application to the skin in a 182-day (6-month) open-label extension of the initial 182-day double-blind study. One hundred and sixty-three subjects, aged 26 to 77 years, continued on active (Continuing Active subjects) 1.62% testosterone gel for the remainder of the study (364 days total). In 28 subjects who had previously received placebo (Formerly Placebo subjects), the dose was titrated to normal levels of serum total testosterone (300-1,000 ng/dL). Dose adjustments for both groups were allowed at specific visits to maintain serum testosterone within a normal range. The main outcome measure was the percentage of subjects with serum total testosterone average concentrations (C(av) ) within the normal range at day 364. On day 364, 77.9% (95% confidence interval: 70.0, 84.6) of the Continuing Active subjects and 87.0% (66.4, 97.2) of the Formerly Placebo subjects had C(av) values within the eugonadal range. The 1.62% testosterone gel was safe and well tolerated in this study. Treatment with 1.62% testosterone gel for up to 1 year (182 days for the Formerly Placebo subjects, 364 days for the Continuing Active subjects) was safe and efficacious, resulting in >77% of treated subjects achieving normal serum testosterone levels at final visit. Output: | {'conditions': 'Hypogonadism', 'interventions': 'Drug: Testosterone (T) Gel 1.62%|Drug: Placebo'} |

Input:Reexamination of pharmacokinetics of oral testosterone undecanoate in hypogonadal men with a new self-emulsifying formulation. Many hypogonadal men prefer oral testosterone (T) treatment. Oral T undecanoate (TU) is available in many countries, but not in the United States. We aimed to assess the pharmacokinetics of oral TU in a new self-emulsifying drug delivery system formulation. Pharmacokinetics studies were conducted in 3 parts: 12 hypogonadal men were enrolled in 2 centers for a 1-day dosing study; 29 participants were enrolled from 3 centers for a 7-day dosing study; and 15 participants were enrolled from 1 center for a 28-day dosing study. Serial blood samples for serum sex hormone measurements by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry were drawn for up to 36 hours after oral TU administration. Mean serum T levels (C(avg)) after oral dosing of T 200 mg as TU twice daily with food were within the adult male range in most participants in the 1-, 7-, and 28-day dosing studies but were much lower in the fasting state. The dose-proportional increase in C(avg) of serum T after oral T 300 mg twice daily resulted in more participants with supraphysiologic serum T levels. In the 28-day study, trough serum T reached a steady state at day 7. Serum dihydrotestosterone and estradiol levels tracked serum T concentration. Dihydrotestosterone-testosterone ratios increased 3-fold after oral TU administration. Oral T 200 mg twice daily as TU in a new SEDDS formulation may be a viable therapy for hypogonadal men. Output: | {'conditions': 'Hypogonadism', 'interventions': 'Drug: Testosterone undecanoate (TU)|Drug: TU + testosterone enanthate (TE)|Drug: Testosterone undecanoate (TU)|Drug: TU + testosterone enanthate (TE)'} |

Input:Plasma glutathione of HIV⁺ patients responded positively and differently to dietary supplementation with cysteine or glutamine. Patients with positivity for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV⁺) present low concentrations of antioxidant nutrients, including total glutathione (GSH) and its precursors. We investigated the responses of the sulfur-containing amino acid pathway to cysteine and glutamine (Gln) dietary supplements in patients with HIV⁺ compared with healthy controls. Twelve treated patients (six men and six women, 22-45 y old) and 20 healthy controls (10 men and 10 women, 20-59 y old) were randomly assigned to 7-d dietary supplements containing N-acetylcysteine (NAC; 1 g/d) or Gln (20 g/d), with a 7-d washout period ingesting their usual diet. Blood samples were drawn after an overnight fast. High-performance liquid chromatographic plasma analysis of sulfur-containing amino acids (methionine, homocysteine, cysteine, and taurine), GSH, oxidized GSH, and serine, glycine, glutamic acid, and Gln was carried out moments before and after 7-d supplementations. Statistical comparisons were undertaken between groups and between dietary supplements (P < 0.05). Patients with HIV⁺ showed higher oxidized GSH and lower concentrations of GSH and all amino acids except homocysteine. The HIV⁺ group responded to the NAC by increased levels of sulfur-containing amino acids and GSH and equalized taurine and GSH levels in the control group. The Gln supplements also equalized the levels of GSH, Gln, and glycine in the control group. An increase in GSH may be attained by NAC or Gln supplementation, with NAC acting by increasing cysteine levels and Gln likely acting by replenishing the glycine pool (trial registered at http://www.clinicaltrials.gov, identifier NCT00910442). Output: | {'conditions': 'HIV Infection', 'interventions': 'Dietary Supplement: Glutathione precursors'} |

Input:Effect of combining extended-release carvedilol and lisinopril in hypertension: results of the COSMOS study. Hypertension treatment commonly requires multiple agents to achieve target blood pressure (BP). β-blockers and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) are commonly co-prescribed in clinical practice although few data are available that test their additivity on BP lowering. The efficacy and safety of once-daily extended-release carvedilol (carvedilol CR) combined with the ACEI lisinopril in a double-blind, randomized, factorial design study were studied. Patients (N=656) with stage 1 or 2 hypertension were randomized evenly to 1 of 15 groups for 6 weeks: carvedilol CR monotherapy 20 mg, 40 mg, or 80 mg/d; lisinopril monotherapy 10 mg, 20 mg, or 40 mg/d; or 1 of 9 combinations of carvedilol CR plus lisinopril initiated simultaneously. Primary efficacy measures (assessed by ambulatory BP monitoring [ABPM]) were change from baseline in 24-hour mean diastolic BP (DBP) and in trough (20-24 hours) DBP. Continuous efficacy variables were assessed using analysis of covariance. Whether any combination dose was superior to its monotherapy components was assessed using the Hung AVE procedure. Despite the presence of additional BP lowering observed with most of the combinations compared with their monotherapy components, the Hung AVE test was not significant for either primary efficacy measures. Post hoc analyses of the high-dose combination groups (carvedilol CR/lisinopril regimens of 80/10 mg, 80/20 mg, 80/40 mg, 20/40 mg, and 40/40 mg) showed a significant treatment difference compared with both carvedilol CR 80 mg and lisinopril 40 mg for 24-hour mean DBP but not for trough DBP. With the exception of dizziness, individual adverse events did not increase with ascending doses or combinations. The superiority of initiating combination treatment with carvedilol CR and lisinopril compared with the monotherapy components was not demonstrated with the ABPM measurements. Nonetheless, the post hoc assessment combining all high-dose groups did produce significant 24-hour mean BP reduction when compared with the high-dose monotherapy groups. The tolerability profile of initiating combination therapy was generally comparable to the initiation of treatment with monotherapy. Output: | {'conditions': 'Hypertension', 'interventions': 'Drug: lisinopril|Drug: carvedilol controlled release formulation'} |

Input:Efficacy of ranibizumab in patients with macular edema secondary to central retinal vein occlusion: results from the sham-controlled ROCC study. The ROCC study (randomized study comparing ranibizumab to sham in patients with macular edema secondary to central Retinal vein OCClusion [CRVO]) evaluated the short-term effect of intravitreal ranibizumab injections on best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and macular edema. Prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled trial. In this 6-month trial, 32 patients with macular edema secondary to CRVO were randomized to receive monthly intravitreal ranibizumab (0.5 mg/0.05 mL) or sham injections for 3 consecutive months. If macular edema persisted, patients received further monthly injections. Primary outcome measures were BCVA and central macular thickness (CMT) at 6 months. Twenty-nine patients completed the study. After 3 months, BCVA improved by a mean +/- standard deviation (SD) of 16 +/- 14 Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letters in the ranibizumab group (n = 15), compared with a mean loss of 5 +/- 15 ETDRS letters in the sham group (n = 14; P = .001). The mean +/- SD change in CMT was -411 +/- 200 microm in the ranibizumab group and -86 +/- 165 microm with sham (P < .001). At 6 months, the mean +/- SD change in BCVA was 12 +/- 20 ETDRS letters in the ranibizumab group compared with -1 +/- 17 ETDRS letters in the sham group (P = .067). The mean +/- SD change in CMT was -304 +/- 194 microm with ranibizumab and -151 +/- 205 microm with sham (P = .05). Twelve patients (80%) in the ranibizumab group required more than 3 initial injections; mean +/- SD number of injections was 4.3 +/- 0.9 during the study. Monthly ranibizumab significantly increased BCVA and decreased macular edema, compared with sham, in patients with CRVO. Repeated consecutive injections are necessary to maintain initial positive results. Output: | {'conditions': 'Central Retinal Vein Occlusion|Macular Edema', 'interventions': 'Drug: ranibizumab|Drug: ranibizumab'} |

Input:The use of misoprostol before hysteroscopic surgery in non-pregnant premenopausal women: a randomized comparison of sublingual, oral and vaginal administrations. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of misoprostol administered orally, vaginally, or sublingually on cervical ripening before hysteroscopic surgery in premenopausal non-pregnant women. Non-pregnant premenopausal women scheduled for operative hysteroscopy (with a 10-mm hysteroscope) were assigned by computerized randomization to receive 400 mg of misoprostol, administered either orally or vaginally 6-8 h prior to surgery or 400 mg sublingually 2-4 h prior to surgery. The primary outcome in this study was the preoperative cervical width as measured by the largest number of Hegar dilators. The time to Hegar number 10 was also recorded along with side effects related to misoprostol and complications during surgery for each group. Patients were randomized to receive sublingual (n = 47), oral (n = 47) or vaginal (n = 47) misoprostol. The three groups were comparable in terms of age, BMI (body mass index), parity, gravidity, history of vaginal delivery, post-operative pathological findings and surgeon type. The preoperative cervical width [sublingual: 7.5 +/- 2.0 mm (8, 3-10); oral: 7.5 +/- 1.9 mm (7, 4-10); vaginal: 7.6 +/- 2.4 mm (8, 1-10)] was statistically similar among the groups. The time to Hegar number 10, side effects and complications during the hysteroscopy were comparable among the three groups. A limitation of this study was that the surgeons, but not the patients, were blinded to the test procedures. Nevertheless we found that sublingual, oral and vaginal misoprostol were equally effective for cervical priming before hysteroscopic surgery in premenopausal non-pregnant women. Output: | {'conditions': 'Cervical Ripening', 'interventions': 'Drug: Misoprostol'} |

Input:Artemether-lumefantrine to treat malaria in pregnancy is associated with reduced placental haemozoin deposition compared to quinine in a randomized controlled trial. Data on efficacy of artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) to treat Plasmodium falciparum during pregnancy in sub-Saharan Africa is scarce. A recent open label, randomized controlled trial in Mbarara, Uganda demonstrated that artemether-lumefantrine (AL) is not inferior to quinine to treat uncomplicated malaria in pregnancy. Haemozoin can persist in the placenta following clearance of parasites, however there is no data whether ACT can influence the amount of haemozoin or the dynamics of haemozoin clearance. Women attending antenatal clinics with weekly screening and positive blood smears by microscopy were eligible to participate in the trial and were followed to delivery. Placental haemozoin deposition and inflammation were assessed by histology. To determine whether AL was associated with increased haemozoin clearance, population haemozoin clearance curves were calculated based on the longitudinal data. Of 152 women enrolled in each arm, there were 97 and 98 placental biopsies obtained in the AL and quinine arms, respectively. AL was associated with decreased rates of moderate to high grade haemozoin deposition (13.3% versus 25.8%), which remained significant after correcting for gravidity, time of infection, re-infection, and parasitaemia. The amount of haemozoin proportionately decreased with the duration of time between treatment and delivery and this decline was greater in the AL arm. Haemozoin was not detected in one third of biopsies and the prevalence of inflammation was low, reflecting the efficacy of antenatal care with early detection and prompt treatment of malaria. Placental haemozoin deposition was decreased in the AL arm demonstrating a relationship between pharmacological properties of drug to treat antenatal malaria and placental pathology at delivery. Histology may be considered an informative outcome for clinical trials to evaluate malaria control in pregnancy. http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00495508.

Input:Antibody persistence and immune memory in adults, 15 years after a three-dose schedule of a combined hepatitis A and B vaccine. A combined hepatitis A and B vaccine is available since 1996. Two separate open-label primary studies evaluated the immunogenicity and safety of this hepatitis A and B vaccine (720 EI.U of HAV and 20 µg of HBsAg) in 306 healthy subjects aged 17-43 years who received three doses of the vaccine following a 0, 1, and 6 months schedule. These subjects were followed up annually for the next 15 years to evaluate long-term persistence of anti-HAV and anti-HBs antibodies. The subjects whose antibody concentrations fell below the cut-offs between Year 11 and Year 15 (anti-HAV: <15 mIU/ml; anti-HBs: <10 mIU/ml) were offered an additional dose of the appropriate monovalent hepatitis A and/or B vaccine. In subjects who received the additional vaccine dose, a blood sample was collected 1 month after vaccination. At the Year 15 time point, all subjects in Study A and Study B were seropositive for anti-HAV antibodies and 89.3% and 92.9% of subjects in the respective studies had anti-HBs antibody concentrations ≥10 mIU/ml. Four subjects (two in each study) received an additional dose of monovalent hepatitis B vaccine and mounted anamnestic responses to vaccination. No vaccine-related serious adverse events were reported. This study confirms the long-term immunogenicity of the three-dose regimen of the combined hepatitis A and B vaccine, as eliciting long-term persistence of antibodies and immune memory against hepatitis A and B for up to at least 15 years after a primary vaccination.

Input:Procalcitonin guidance and reduction of antibiotic use in acute respiratory tract infection. Increasing worldwide development of antimicrobial resistance and the association of resistance development and antibiotic overuse make it necessary to seek strategies for safely reducing antibiotic use and selection pressure. In a first step, in a non-interventional study, the antibiotic prescription rates, initial procalcitonin (PCT) levels and outcome of 702 patients presenting with acute respiratory infection at 45 primary care physicians were observed. The second part was a randomised controlled non-inferiority trial comparing standard care with PCT-guided antimicrobial treatment in 550 patients in the same setting. Antibiotics were recommended at a PCT threshold of 0.25 ng·mL(-1). Clinical overruling was permitted. The primary end-point for non-inferiority was number of days with significant health impairment after 14 days. Antibiotics were prescribed in 30.3% of enrolled patients in the non-interventional study. In the interventional study, 36.7% of patients in the control group received antibiotics as compared to 21.5% in the PCT-guided group (41.6% reduction). In the modified intention-to-treat analysis, the numbers of days with significant health impairment were similar (mean 9.04 versus 9.00 for PCT-guided and control group, respectively; difference 0.04; 95% confidence interval -0.73-0.81). This was also true after adjusting for the most important confounders. In the PCT group, advice was overruled in 36 cases. There was no significant difference in primary end-point when comparing the PCT group treated as advised, the overruled PCT group and the control group (9.008 versus 9.250 versus 9.000 days; p = 0.9605). A simple one-point PCT measurement for guiding decisions on antibiotic treatment is non-inferior to standard treatment in terms of safety, and effectively reduced the antibiotic treatment rate by 41.6%. Output: | {'conditions': 'Respiratory Tract Infection', 'interventions': 'Other: laboratory value procalcitonin'} |

Input:A dose-escalation study of pemetrexed and docetaxel in non-small-cell lung cancer. A phase I study was conducted to determine the maximum tolerated doses (MTD) and the dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) of pemetrexed and docetaxel in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients were treated with escalating doses of pemetrexed (400-600 mg/m(2) as a 10-min intravenous infusion) and docetaxel (65-85 mg/m(2) as a 1-h intravenous infusion) on day 1, every 3 weeks. An expanded accrual at the level of the recommended dose (RD) had been scheduled. Forty-two patients with metastatic NSCLC were enrolled in the phase I study and 20 additional patients at the RD level. The MTD could not be reached even at the doses of 550 and 85 mg/m(2) for pemetrexed and docetaxel, respectively, which are higher than the recommended dose for each drug given as a single agent. Therefore, the RD was defined at 500 mg/m(2) pemetrexed and 75 mg/m(2) docetaxel. Among the 164 administered chemotherapy cycles (phase I part), there were three episodes of febrile neutropenia whereas 13 (7.9%) and 11 (6.7%) cycles were complicated with grade III and IV neutropenia, respectively. Three patients developed grade III/IV thrombocytopenia. Non-hematologic toxicity was mild with grade III fatigue occurring in three (6.7%) patients. There was no toxic death. The favorable toxicity profile of the regimen was confirmed in patients treated at the RD level. Overall, one complete (CR) and 13 partial responses (PR) (overall response rate = 23; 95% C.I:12.4-33.5%] were documented. The combination of pemetrexed and docetaxel seems to be an effective regimen in NSCLC with acceptable and manageable toxicity, which merits further investigation. Output: | {'conditions': 'Non Small Cell Lung Cancer', 'interventions': 'Drug: Docetaxel|Drug: Pemetrexed'} |

Input:Exenatide twice daily: analysis of effectiveness and safety data stratified by age, sex, race, duration of diabetes, and body mass index. Exenatide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, is used twice daily (BID) as monotherapy or adjunctive therapy for the improvement of glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this pooled analysis was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of exenatide BID in patients stratified by various demographic characteristics. This post hoc analysis included data from 16 randomized controlled trials in which patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were treated with 10-μg exenatide BID. Each patient was classified into subgroups on the basis of his or her baseline values for age (< 65 or ≥ 65 years), sex (male or female), race (white, black, Asian, or Hispanic), duration of diabetes (< 10 years or ≥ 10 years), and body mass index (BMI; ≥ 20 to < 25, ≥ 25 to < 30, ≥ 30 to < 35, or ≥ 35 kg/m(2)). A total of 2067 patients were included. All groups experienced significant improvements in glycated hemoglobin, fasting plasma glucose levels (other than black patients, who had a relatively low baseline fasting plasma glucose level), and body weight from baseline to endpoint. Most groups had significant improvements in systolic blood pressure. All of the age, sex, and duration of diabetes groups experienced significant improvements in lipid levels (other than high-density lipoprotein cholesterol). Whites and Asians generally experienced significant improvements in lipid levels, whereas blacks and Hispanics did not. Significant improvements in lipid levels were generally seen across BMI groups. The most common adverse events overall were nausea (38.6%), hypoglycemia (28.4%), and vomiting (14.0%). Hypoglycemia was more common overall in patients who were taking a concomitant sulfonylurea than it was in patients who were not. In this pooled analysis, exenatide BID improved glycemic control and body weight, and had generally beneficial effects on blood pressure and lipid levels in patients regardless of baseline age, sex, race, duration of diabetes, or BMI. Gastrointestinal events were the most common adverse events. www.ClinicalTrials.gov [NCT00039026, NCT00039013, NCT00082381, NCT00035984, NCT00082407, NCT00381342, NCT00360334, NCT00375492, NCT00603239, NCT00765817, NCT00577824, NCT00434954].

Input:Phase 2 study of frontline bortezomib in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Preliminary results indicated that bortezomib (B) (Velcade*) as a single agent may have activity in pretreated NSCLC patients with similar or lesser toxicity compared to chemotherapy. This phase II study was initiated to determine the efficacy of single-agent B in chemonaïve patients with advanced NSCLC. An early tumor assessment (after 6 weeks of therapy) was performed to allow for rapid and appropriate management of non-responding patients. Patients received B (1.5 mg/m2) twice a week for 2 consecutive weeks (days 1, 4, 8, and 11) followed by a 10-day rest period. The primary endpoint was non-progression rate (NPR) after 6 weeks of treatment. Secondary endpoints included response rate, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. Exploratory analyses included FDG-PET response at 6 weeks and circulating tumors cell (CTC) assessment at day 1 of each cycle in a subset of patients. 18 patients were enrolled from 06/06 to 02/07 from 3 French institutions. male/female 15/3; median age 66 (54-79); PS 0/1/2, 3/12/3; pathology: adenocarcinoma 11, squamous cell carcinoma 5, large-cell carcinoma 2; smoking status never/former/current 1/10/7; stage IIIB/IV 2/16. Seventeen patients received B and 16 were assessable (1 early withdrawal and 1 progression at D26). The most frequent toxicity was fatigue (17 patients). Twelve patients (71%) had at least one grade 3 toxicity: 4 haematological, 1 infection, 5 gastro-intestinal toxicity, 9 fatigue, 1 neuropathy. The non-progression rate was 59% [33-82%] at 6 weeks (10/17 patients). No objective response was seen. With a median follow-up of 12.3 months, the median PFS and OS were 2.4 and 9.8 months respectively. Eleven deaths occurred. No PET response was observed, and CTC were detected only in 1 out of 8 patients evaluated. Although according to the protocol rules the trial should not be stopped, the lack of any objective response either by CT-scan or PET-CT, along with substantial toxicity, did not argue in favor of the current strategy of B as a single agent in the front-line setting of NSCLC.

Input:Pardoprunox as adjunct therapy to levodopa in patients with Parkinson's disease experiencing motor fluctuations: results of a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, trial. To determine the efficacy and safety of pardoprunox in levodopa-treated patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) experiencing motor fluctuations. Patients were randomized to pardoprunox (up to 42 mg/day, n = 150) or placebo (n = 144). Pardoprunox was titrated to an optimal dose over 7 weeks, followed by a 12-week stable dose period. The primary efficacy variable was the change from baseline to study endpoint in total daily OFF time, based on patient diaries. Secondary analyses included the change in ON time without troublesome dyskinesias, UPDRS-ADL + Motor ON, UPDRS-ADL OFF and PDQ-39. Subgroup analyses explored the impact of pardoprunox on dyskinesias (UPDRS items 32 + 33), depression (Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale) and pain (Visual Analogue Scale). Pardoprunox significantly reduced OFF time versus placebo (-1.62 h/day versus -0.92 h/day, respectively, p = 0.0215). Compared to placebo, pardoprunox improved ON time without troublesome dyskinesias (p = 0.0386), UPDRS-ADL + Motor ON (p = 0.0003), and UPDRS-ADL OFF (p < 0.0001), while no significant difference was observed on PDQ-39. A high drop-out rate due to adverse events (AEs) (pardoprunox, 37%; placebo, 12%) suggested that the selected dose range may have been too high, and/or titration was too rapid. Pardoprunox decreased OFF time and increased ON time without troublesome dyskinesias in levodopa-treated PD patients. The high drop-out rate at the selected doses justifies the investigation of lower doses. The impact of pardoprunox on dyskinesias and non-motor symptoms deserves further investigation. Output: | {'conditions': "Advanced Stage Parkinson's Disease", 'interventions': 'Drug: Pardoprunox|Drug: Placebo Comparator'} |

Input:Safety, efficacy, and biomarker findings of PBT2 in targeting Abeta as a modifying therapy for Alzheimer's disease: a phase IIa, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial. PBT2 is a metal-protein attenuating compound (MPAC) that affects the Cu2(+)-mediated and Zn2(+)-mediated toxic oligomerisation of Abeta seen in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Strong preclinical efficacy data and the completion of early, clinical safety studies have preceded this phase IIa study, the aim of which was to assess the effects of PBT2 on safety, efficacy, and biomarkers of AD. Between December 6, 2006, and September 21, 2007, community-dwelling patients over age 55 years were recruited to this 12-week, double-blind, randomised trial of PBT2. Patients were randomly allocated to receive 50 mg PBT2, 250 mg PBT2, or placebo. Inclusion criteria were early AD (mini-mental state examination [MMSE] score between 20 and 26 points or Alzheimer's disease assessment scale-cognitive subscale (ADAS-cog) score between 10 and 25 points), taking a stable dose of acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (donepezil, galantamine, or rivastigmine) for at least 4 months, a modified Hachinski score of 4 points or less, and CT or MRI results that were consistent with AD. The principal outcomes were safety and tolerability. Secondary outcomes were plasma and CSF biomarkers and cognition. Analysis was intention to treat. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00471211. 78 patients were randomly assigned (29 to placebo, 20 to PBT2 50 mg, and 29 to PBT2 250 mg) and 74 (95%) completed the study. 42 (54%) patients had at least one treatment emergent adverse event (10 [50%] on PBT2 50 mg, 18 [62%] on PBT2 250 mg, and 14 [48%] on placebo). No serious adverse events were reported by patients on PBT2. Patients treated with PBT2 250 mg had a dose-dependent (p=0.023) and significant reduction in CSF Abeta(42) concentration compared with those treated with placebo (difference in least squares mean change from baseline was -56.0 pg/mL, 95% CI -101.5 to -11.0; p=0.006). PBT2 had no effect on plasma biomarkers of AD or serum Zn(2+) and Cu(2+) concentrations. Cognition testing included ADAS-cog, MMSE, and a neuropsychological test battery (NTB). Of these tests, two executive function component tests of the NTB showed significant improvement over placebo in the PBT2 250 mg group: category fluency test (2.8 words, 0.1 to 5.4; p=0.041) and trail making part B (-48.0 s, -83.0 to -13.0; p=0.009). The safety profile is favourable for the ongoing development of PBT2. The effect on putative biomarkers for AD in CSF but not in plasma is suggestive of a central effect of the drug on Abeta metabolism. Cognitive efficacy was restricted to two measures of executive function. Future trials that are larger and longer will establish if the effects of PBT2 on biomarkers and cognition that are reported here translate into clinical effectiveness. Output: | {'conditions': "Alzheimer's Disease", 'interventions': 'Drug: PBT2'} |

Input:ASP2151 for the treatment of genital herpes: a randomized, double-blind, placebo- and valacyclovir-controlled, dose-finding study. Current therapies for genital herpes have only partial efficacy. Helicase-primase inhibitors are novel, potent inhibitors of herpes simplex virus replication. This randomized trial assessed the safety and efficacy of ASP2151 for episodic therapy of recurrent genital herpes. Participants self-initiated with ASP2151 (100, 200, or 400 mg daily for 3 days), ASP2151 (1200 mg as a single dose), placebo for 3 days, or valacyclovir (500 mg twice daily for 3 days). The primary efficacy endpoint, time to lesion healing excluding aborted lesions, was analyzed using a proportional hazards model. Statistical significance was determined by P = .01. Of 695 adults enrolled, 437 experienced a recurrence and received study drug. Median time for lesion healing excluding aborted lesions was 139.8 hours with placebo, 119.6 hours with ASP2151 (100 mg; hazard ratio [HR], 1.40; P = .065), 106.2 with ASP2151 (200 mg; HR, 1.40; P = .081), 115.9 with ASP2151 (400 mg; HR, 1.25; P = .25), 102.1 with ASP2151 (1200 mg; HR, 1.72; P = .007), and 113.9 with valacyclovir (500 mg twice daily; HR, 1.42; P = .077), indicating improvement in all treatment groups except ASP2151 (400 mg). Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events was similar across groups. Three-day or single-day courses of ASP2151 appear to be effective and safe options for treatment of episodes of recurrent genital herpes. NCT00486200. Output: | {'conditions': 'Herpes Genitalis', 'interventions': 'Drug: ASP2151|Drug: valacyclovir|Drug: Placebo'} |

Input:Treatment of insomnia in Parkinson's disease: a controlled trial of eszopiclone and placebo. Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disease affecting up to 1 million individuals in the United States. Sleep disturbances, typically in sleep maintenance, are found in up to 88% of these individuals and are associated with a variety of poor outcomes. Despite being common and important, there are few data to guide clinical care. We conducted a 6-week, randomized, controlled trial of eszopiclone and placebo in 30 patients with PD and insomnia. Patients with other primary sleep disorders (PSG defined) were excluded. The primary outcome was total sleep time (TST), and secondary measures included wake after sleep onset (WASO), number of awakenings, and quality of sleep, among others. The groups did not significantly differ on TST, but significant differences, favoring eszopiclone, did emerge in number of awakenings (P = 0.035), quality of sleep (P = 0.018), and in physician-rated CGI improvement (P = 0.035). There was also a trend toward significance in WASO (P = 0.071). There were no significant differences between groups in measures of daytime functioning. The drug was well tolerated, with 33% of patients on eszopiclone and 27% of patients on placebo reporting adverse events. Although modest in size, this is the first controlled study of the treatment of insomnia in patients with PD. Eszopiclone did not increase TST significantly but was superior to placebo in improving quality of sleep and some measures of sleep maintenance, which is the most common sleep difficulty experienced by patients with PD. Definitive trials of the treatment of sleep disorders in this population are warranted. Output: | {'conditions': "Parkinson's Disease|Insomnia", 'interventions': 'Drug: eszopiclone'} |

Input:Staining and calculus formation after 0.12% chlorhexidine rinses in plaque-free and plaque covered surfaces: a randomized trial. Studies concerning side effects of chlorhexidine as related to the presence of plaque are scarce. The purpose of this study was to compare the side effects of 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) on previously plaque-free (control group) and plaque-covered surfaces (test group). This study had a single-blind, randomized, split-mouth, 21 days-experimental gingivitis design, including 20 individuals who abandoned all mechanical plaque control methods during 25 days. After 4 days of plaque accumulation, the individuals had 2 randomized quadrants cleaned, remaining 2 quadrants with plaque-covered dental surfaces. On the fourth day, the individuals started with 0.12% CHX rinsing lasting for 21 days. Stain index intensity and extent as well as calculus formation were evaluated during the experimental period. Intergroup comparisons showed statistically higher (p<0.05) stain intensity and extent index as well as calculus formation over the study in test surfaces as compared to control surfaces. Thus, 26.19% of test surfaces presented calculus, whereas calculus was observed in 4.52% in control surfaces. The presence of plaque increased 0.12% CHX side effects. These results strengthen the necessity of biofilm disruption prior to the start of CHX mouthrinses in order to reduce side effects.

Input:Efficacy and safety of saxagliptin added to metformin in Asian people with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a randomized controlled trial. To assess efficacy and safety of saxagliptin added to metformin versus placebo plus metformin in Asian patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and inadequate glycemic control on metformin alone. Adults (HbA(1c) 7.0-10.0%, on stable metformin ≥ 1500 mg/day) were randomized 1:1 to saxagliptin 5mg daily plus metformin (n = 283) or placebo plus metformin (n = 287). The primary end point was HbA(1c) change from baseline to Week 24. Saxagliptin plus metformin provided significant adjusted mean decreases versus placebo plus metformin (p ≤ 0.0052) in HbA(1c) (-0.78% versus -0.37%), fasting plasma glucose (-1.14 mmol/L versus -0.58 mmol/L), and postprandial glucose area under the curve from 0 to 180 min (-315 mmol min/L versus -160 mmol min/L). Significantly more saxagliptin-treated patients achieved a therapeutic glycemic response (HbA(1c)<7.0%) (46.5% versus 30.5%; p = 0.0001). The proportion of patients experiencing adverse events (excluding hypoglycemia) was similar for saxagliptin plus metformin (42.8%) versus placebo plus metformin (40.8%). Hypoglycemic events were reported in 1.4% of patients in each group. Saxagliptin added to metformin significantly improved glycemic control and was well tolerated in Asian patients with T2DM who had inadequate glycemic control with metformin and diet and lifestyle modification. Output: | {'conditions': 'Type 2 Diabetes', 'interventions': 'Drug: Saxagliptin|Drug: Placebo|Drug: Metformin'} |

Input:Randomized trial of atopaxar in the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease: the lessons from antagonizing the cellular effect of Thrombin–Coronary Artery Disease Trial. Thrombin is a key mediator of platelet activation. Atopaxar is a reversible protease-activated receptor-1 antagonist that interferes with thrombin-mediated platelet effects. The phase II Lessons From Antagonizing the Cellular Effect of Thrombin-Coronary Artery Disease (LANCELOT-CAD) trial examined the safety and tolerability of prolonged therapy with atopaxar in subjects with CAD. Subjects with a qualifying history were randomized in a double-blind fashion to 3 dosing regimens of atopaxar (50, 100, or 200 mg daily) or matching placebo for 24 weeks and followed up for an additional 4 weeks. The key safety end points were bleeding according to the Clopidogrel in Unstable Angina to Prevent Recurrent Events (CURE) and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) classifications. Secondary objectives included platelet aggregation and major adverse cardiac events. Seven hundred and twenty subjects were randomized. Overall bleeding rates tended to be higher with atopaxar compared with placebo by CURE criteria (placebo, 0.6%; atopaxar, 3.9%; relative risk, 6.82, P=0.03; 50 mg, 3.9%; 100 mg, 1.7%; 200 mg, 5.9%; P for trend=0.01) and TIMI criteria (placebo, 6.8%; atopaxar, 10.3%; relative risk, 1.52, P=0.17; 50 mg, 9.9%; 100 mg, 8.1%; 200 mg, 12.9%; P for trend=0.07). There was no difference in major bleeding. Major adverse cardiac events were numerically lower in the atopaxar subjects. All atopaxar regimens achieved high levels of platelet inhibition. A transient elevation in liver transaminases and dose-dependent QTc prolongation without apparent complications were observed in higher-dose atopaxar treatment groups. In this dose-ranging study of patients with CAD, treatment with atopaxar resulted in platelet inhibition, more minor bleeding, and numerically but not statistically fewer ischemic events. Larger-scale trials are needed to determine whether these patterns translate into clinically meaningful effects. URL: http://www.ClinicalTrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00312052.

Input:Immunogenicity and safety of human papillomavirus-16/18 AS04-adjuvanted cervical cancer vaccine coadministered with combined diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis-inactivated poliovirus vaccine to girls and young women. Many countries recommend human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination in female adolescents at an age when other vaccines are routinely administered. This open, randomized, multicenter study (108464/NCT00426361) evaluated coadministration of HPV-16/18 AS04-adjuvanted vaccine with diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis-inactivated poliovirus vaccine (dTpa-IPV). Healthy females aged 10-18 years were randomized to receive HPV vaccine at months 0, 1, and 6 (n = 248), HPV vaccine coadministered with dTpa-IPV at month 0 and HPV vaccine at months 1 and 6 (n = 255), or dTpa-IPV at month 0 followed by HPV vaccine at months 1, 2, and 7 (n = 248). Immunogenicity was evaluated at months 0, 1, and 7 or 8 (depending on group). Vaccine reactogenicity and safety were also assessed. Coadministered dTpa-IPV and HPV vaccine was noninferior to dTpa-IPV alone in terms of seroprotection against diphtheria (99.2% and 100%), tetanus (100% and 100%) and poliovirus types 1, 2, and 3 (> or = 99.6%), and geometric mean antibody concentrations (ELISA Units/mL) for pertussis toxoid (84 vs. 75), filamentous hemagglutinin (612 and 615) and pertactin (426 and 360) at month 1. Coadministered dTpa-IPV and HPV vaccine was noninferior to HPV vaccine alone in terms of seroconversion rates for HPV-16 (99.5% and 100%) and HPV-18 (99.5% and 100%) and geometric mean antibody titers (ELISA Units/mL) for HPV-16 (15,608 and 18,965) and HPV-18 (6,597 and 6,902) at month 7. Coadministration was generally well tolerated. The reactogenicity of dTpa-IPV and the first dose of HPV vaccine was similar. Results from this study support coadministration of the HPV-16/18 AS04-adjuvanted vaccine with dTpa-IPV vaccine in females aged 10-18 years.

Input:Alogliptin added to insulin therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes reduces HbA(1C) without causing weight gain or increased hypoglycaemia. To assess the efficacy and safety of alogliptin added to insulin in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled with insulin alone or combined with metformin. In this 26-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 390 patients were randomized to receive alogliptin 12.5 mg (n = 131), alogliptin 25 mg (n = 129) or placebo (n = 130) once daily, as add-on to stable insulin therapy with or without metformin. The primary endpoint was change in haemoglobin A(1C) (HbA(1C)) at week 26. At week 26, mean HbA(1C) changes from the mean baseline value of 9.3% were significantly greater for alogliptin 12.5 mg (-0.63 +/- 0.08%) and alogliptin 25 mg (-0.71 +/- 0.08%) than placebo (-0.13 +/- 0.08%; p < 0.001). Significantly greater proportions of patients receiving alogliptin 12.5 or 25 mg than placebo had HbA(1C) decreases of > or =0.5, > or =1.0 and > or =1.5%. Insulin doses remained unchanged, and there were no differences in the proportions of patients experiencing hypoglycaemia among placebo (24%), alogliptin 12.5 mg (27%) and alogliptin 25 mg (27%). Mean weight increases from baseline at week 26 were similar for placebo (0.6 +/- 0.2 kg), alogliptin 12.5 mg (0.7 +/- 0.2 kg) and alogliptin 25 mg (0.6 +/- 0.2 kg). Incidences of overall adverse events, and of gastrointestinal, dermatological and infection-related events, were similar among groups. Adding alogliptin to previous insulin therapy (with or without metformin) significantly improved glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on insulin, without causing weight gain or increasing the incidence of hypoglycaemia. Further studies are warranted to explore the role of alogliptin added to optimized basal insulin regimens.

Input:Intravitreal bevacizumab for foveal detachment in idiopathic perifoveal telangiectasia. To report the use of intravitreal bevacizumab injection for the treatment of foveal detachment in idiopathic perifoveal telangiectasia (IPT). Prospective, interventional case series. Three eyes from two patients with IPT and foveal detachments were treated with a 1.25 mg/0.05 ml intravitreal injection of bevacizumab. The following variables were evaluated: visual acuity and optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. The OCT images showed marked reversal of the foveal detachment after the injection, with restoration of foveal depression in all eyes. The vision of all treated eyes improved and remained unchanged up until the last follow-up visit (mean, 24 weeks). A single intravitreal bevacizumab injection provides short-term improvement in visual acuity and foveal detachment associated with IPT. These findings should be followed by further studies to evaluate the long-term effects on retinal structure and function.

Input:Gold vs. platinum-iridium tip catheter for cavotricuspid isthmus ablation: the AURUM 8 study. Gold electrodes have the theoretical advantage of creating bigger lesions than platinum-iridium (Pt-Ir) electrodes. We performed a prospective randomized study to compare the clinical efficacy of standard 8 mm Pt-Ir tip catheter (control) and 8 mm gold-tip catheters in the ablation of the cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI)-dependent atrial flutter. A total of 463 patients undergoing CTI ablation in 19 clinical centres were randomized to receive the treatment by gold-tip or control catheter. The primary endpoint was cumulative radiofrequency (RF) application duration until achieving bidirectional CTI block. It did not differ significantly for the two catheters. The gold-tip catheter was, however, associated with a higher ablation success rate (94.3 vs. 89.0%, P = 0.042) and a substantially lower incidence of char and coagulum formation (4.8 vs. 37.9%, P < 0.001), which required exchange of 1 gold-tip (0.4%) and 10 control catheters (4.6%, P = 0.005). The gold-tip catheter delivered more mean power (52 ± 12 W) than the control catheter (48 ± 13 W, P < 0.001). Both mean and maximum temperatures measured by the thermocouple integrated in the catheter tip were statistically significantly lower in the gold (mean: 53.2 ± 4.7°C, max: 68.7 ± 6.6°C) than in the control catheter (54.3 ± 5.2 and 70.2 ± 7.0°C, respectively, P < 0.05). Fluoroscopy time, procedure duration, procedural-related complications, and arrhythmia recurrence during 6 months of follow-up did not differ between the two catheters. Owing to a higher primary ablation success rate and reduced incidence of char/coagulum formation, gold may be preferred over Pt-Ir as electrode material for 8 mm tip catheters for CTI ablation. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT00326001 (http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00326001).

Input:Adding insulin glargine vs. NPH insulin to metformin results in a more efficient postprandial beta-cell protection in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Postprandial release of intact proinsulin (IP) is an independent marker for beta-cell dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes. This open-label, parallel-group, two-arm, pilot study compared the beta-cell protective effect of adding insulin glargine (GLA) vs. NPH insulin to ongoing metformin. Overall, 28 insulin-naive type 2 diabetes subjects (mean +/- SD age, 61.5 +/- 6.7 years; diabetes duration, 9.8 +/- 6.5 years; HbA1c, 7.1 +/- 0.5%; BMI, 30.7 +/- 4.3 kg/m(2)) treated with metformin and sulfonylurea were randomized to add once-daily GLA or NPH at bedtime. At baseline and after 3 months, subjects received a standardized breakfast, lunch and dinner, with pre- and postprandial blood sampling to measure plasma IP, total insulin and blood glucose (BG). Insulin dose after 3 months was comparable in both groups (GLA vs. NPH: 23.6 +/- 13.4 vs. 23.3 +/- 12.7; p = NS ). Both treatments significantly reduced fasting BG levels (GLA: 158 +/- 19 to 121 +/- 23 mg/dl; NPH: 156 +/- 34 to 119 +/- 29 mg/dl; both p < 0.01 vs. baseline). Fasting and postprandial BG levels did not differ between groups. IP levels decreased in both groups (p < 0.05 at all timepoints). Although IP release after breakfast did not differ between treatments, GLA induced a greater reduction in IP release after lunch (p = 0.08) and dinner (p = 0.04). Total plasma insulin levels did not differ between groups. Adding basal insulin to metformin reduces postprandial beta-cell load. While GLA and NPH had comparable effects at breakfast, GLA reduces beta-cell stress more effectively at dinner, and with a trend at lunch, most probably because of its longer lasting pharmacodynamic profile.

Input:Evaluation of stool collections to measure efficacy of PERT in subjects with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. The standard measure of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) efficacy in treating exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) is the coefficient of fat absorption (CFA). CFA measurement involves 72-hour stool collection, which presents a logistical challenge because, although the test may be performed on an outpatient basis in clinical practice, hospitalization is needed if assurance of complete collection and 100% compliance is required, for example, in controlled situations such as clinical trials. Our aim was to investigate sparse stool sample collection as an alternative to complete 72-hour collection for measurement of stool fat in subjects with EPI. Prospective data analysis from a previously published, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, 2-period crossover trial in subjects ages 7 to 11 years with EPI caused by cystic fibrosis. Percentage fat (PF) data from sparse stool samples were compared with 72-hour CFA values as a dichotomous variable (<80%, ≥80%), with evaluation of sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value. Area under the curve values were obtained from receiver operating characteristic plots of sensitivity versus 1-specificity. Twelve subjects provided samples for this analysis. Multiple-sample PF values ≤30% were greatly predictive for CFA values ≥80%, as shown by positive predictive value, sensitivity, and specificity values ≥0.89, with high accuracy (AUCs ≥0.93). Sparse stool sampling for PF analysis appears to be a valid, practical alternative to 72-hour CFA determination and has potential as a screening tool in clinical practice to identify both suboptimal dosing in subjects with EPI receiving PERT and substantial fat malabsorption in subjects not receiving PERT.

Input:Five-year antibody persistence and safety following a booster dose of combined Haemophilus influenzae type b-Neisseria meningitidis serogroup C-tetanus toxoid conjugate vaccine. Booster vaccination with the combined Haemophilus influenza type b-Neisseria meningitides serogroup C-tetanus toxoid vaccine (Hib-MenC-TT) has been reported to induce different MenC antibody responses depending on the priming vaccines, with a possible impact on long-term protection. Here, the five-year persistence of immune responses induced by a booster dose of Hib-MenC-TT was evaluated in toddlers primed with either Hib-MenC-TT or MenC-TT. This is the follow-up of a phase III, open, randomized study, in which a Hib-MenC-TT booster dose was given at 13.14 months of age to toddlers primed with either 3 doses of Hib-MenC-TT or 2 doses of MenC-TT in infancy. Children in the control group had received 3 primary doses and a booster dose of MenC-CRM197. Functional antibodies against MenC were measured by a serum bactericidal assay with rabbit complement (rSBA-MenC) and antibodies against Hib polyribosylribitol phosphate by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Serious adverse events considered by the investigator to be possibly related to vaccination were to be reported throughout the study. At 66 months postbooster, rSBA-MenC titers ≥8 were retained by 82.6% of children primed with Hib-MenC-TT, 94.1% of children primed with MenC-TT, and 60.9% of children in the control group. All children who received the Hib-MenC-TT booster dose retained anti- polyribosylribitol phosphate concentrations ≥0.15 μg/mL. No serious adverse events considered possibly related to vaccination were reported. There is evidence of good antibody persistence against MenC and Hib for more than five years postbooster vaccination with Hib-MenC TT in toddlers primed with Hib-MenC-TT or MenC-TT.

Input:Single-dose pharmacokinetics of famciclovir in infants and population pharmacokinetic analysis in infants and children. A multicenter, open-label study evaluated the single-dose pharmacokinetics and safety of a pediatric oral famciclovir (prodrug of penciclovir) formulation in infants aged 1 to 12 months with suspicion or evidence of herpes simplex virus infection. Individualized single doses of famciclovir based on the infant's body weight ranged from 25 to 175 mg. Eighteen infants were enrolled (1 to <3 months old [n = 8], 3 to <6 months old [n = 5], and 6 to 12 months old [n = 5]). Seventeen infants were included in the pharmacokinetic analysis; one infant experienced immediate emesis and was excluded. Mean C(max) and AUC(0-6) values of penciclovir in infants <6 months of age were approximately 3- to 4-fold lower than those in the 6- to 12-month age group. Specifically, mean AUC(0-6) was 2.2 microg h/ml in infants aged 1 to <3 months, 3.2 microg h/ml in infants aged 3 to <6 months, and 8.8 microg h/ml in infants aged 6 to 12 months. These data suggested that the dose administered to infants <6 months was less than optimal. Eight (44.4%) infants experienced at least one adverse event with gastrointestinal events reported most commonly. An updated pharmacokinetic analysis was conducted, which incorporated the data in infants from the present study and previously published data on children 1 to 12 years of age. An eight-step dosing regimen was derived that targeted exposure in infants and children 6 months to 12 years of age to match the penciclovir AUC seen in adults after a 500-mg dose of famciclovir.

Input:Multidetector-row computed tomography-based clinical assessment of fondaparinux for treatment of acute pulmonary embolism and acute deep vein thrombosis in Japanese patients. Unfractionated heparin (UFH) is the standard drug for the initial treatment of pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in Japan, whereas fondaparinux is the standard drug in Europe and the United States. Here, we examine the efficacy and safety of fondaparinux in Japanese patients. In 2 randomized, open-label, multicenter studies, 80 Japanese patients with acute PE or DVT received either subcutaneous fondaparinux or intravenous UFH as a non-comparative reference, in a 3:1 ratio, for 5-10 days. Concomitant warfarin therapy was continued until Day 90. Multidetector-row computed tomography-based assessment showed that 57.9% and 45.9% of the patients with acute PE and acute proximal DVT had proximal DVT and PE as a complication, respectively. There was no recurrence of symptomatic venous thromboembolism. In the fondaparinux group, the respective improvement rates at the end of the initial treatment and follow-up periods were 71.4% and 86.8% for 42 patients with PE, and 57.8% and 83.3% for 46 patients with DVT; similar results were noted in the UFH group. One patient in the fondaparinux group experienced major bleeding during the initial treatment, but no such episode in the UFH group. Once-daily, subcutaneous fondaparinux is as effective and safe without monitoring as adjusted-dose intravenous UFH for the initial treatment of acute PE and DVT in Japanese patients.

Input:Immunogenicity and safety of two tetravalent (measles, mumps, rubella, varicella) vaccines coadministered with hepatitis a and pneumococcal conjugate vaccines to children twelve to fourteen months of age. This study compared single-dose tetravalent measles, mumps, rubella, varicella vaccine, Priorix-Tetra, stored refrigerated (GSK+4C) or frozen (GSK-20C), with ProQuad (Merck-20C), when coadministered with hepatitis A vaccine (HAV) and 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7). Multicenter, observer-blind phase 2 study in 1783 healthy 12-14 month olds randomized to: GSK+4C (n = 705), GSK-20C (n = 689) or Merck-20C (n = 389), administered concomitantly with HAV (Havrix) and PCV7 (Prevnar). Seroresponse rates and antibody geometric mean concentrations/titers were determined from enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and neutralization assays. Reactogenicity and safety were assessed. Seroresponse rates (day 42) were >97% for measles and rubella viruses and >92% for mumps virus, in all groups. Noninferiority of both GSK+4C and GSK-20C vaccines versus Merck-20C was demonstrated for seroresponse rates to measles, mumps and rubella viruses (lower 97.5% confidence interval above -5%, -10% and -5%, respectively). For varicella-zoster virus, seroresponse rates were 57.1%, 69.8% and 86.7% in the GSK+4C, GSK-20C and Merck-20C groups, respectively. Noninferiority was not shown for either GSK vaccine (lower 97.5% confidence intervals <-15%). Geometric mean concentration ratios for anti-varicella-zoster virus demonstrated noninferiority (lower 97.5% confidence interval ≥ 0.5) versus Merck-20C for GSK-20C only. Geometric mean concentration ratios for antibodies to HAV and to PCV7 pneumococcal serotypes also met criteria for noninferiority for both GSK groups compared with Merck-20C. GSK vaccine safety was observed comparable to Merck-20C. Localized but not generalized measles/rubella-like rash and grade 3 fever was reported slightly more frequently with GSK vaccines, but antipyretic use was similar. The incidence of subjects experiencing at least 1 serious adverse event was 2.0%, 2.9% and 1.8% in the GSK+4C, GSK-20C and Merck-20C groups, respectively. Noninferiority of both GSK measles, mumps, rubella, varicella vaccines versus Merck-20C was demonstrated for responses to measles, mumps and rubella viruses but was not fully demonstrated for varicella-zoster virus. The vaccines showed acceptable reactogenicity/safety when coadministered with HAV and PCV7.

Input:Safety of 3 different reintroduction regimens of antituberculosis drugs after development of antituberculosis treatment-induced hepatotoxicity. Drug-induced hepatotoxicity (DIH) is the most common adverse drug reaction leading to interruption of antituberculosis treatment. Worldwide, different reintroduction regimens have been advocated, but no consensus guidelines are available. Reintroduction of antituberculosis drugs in patients with DIH has never been studied systematically. We aimed to compare the safety of 3 different reintroduction regimens of antituberculosis drugs in patients with antituberculosis DIH. A total of 175 patients with a diagnosis of antituberculosis DIH were randomized to receive 1 of 3 different predefined reintroduction regimens of antituberculosis drugs and were evaluated prospectively. Patients in arm I were given isoniazid, rifampicin, and pyrazinamide simultaneously at full dosage from day 1. In arm II, drugs were administered in a manner similar to that recommended in the American Thoracic Society guidelines for reintroduction. In arm III, drugs were administered in accordance with British Thoracic Society guidelines. Nineteen patients (10.9%) had recurrence of DIH during follow-up. Eight, 6, and 5 patients had recurrence of hepatitis in arms I, II, and III, respectively (P = .69). Of all the clinical and laboratory parameters, pretreatment serum albumin level was the only statistically significant predictor of future recurrence of DIH on reintroduction of antituberculosis drugs (P < .01). The recurrence rate of hepatotoxicity was not significantly different between the 3 groups. According to the findings of the present study, all 3 of the potentially hepatotoxic drugs (isoniazid, rifampicin, and pyrazinamide) can be reintroduced simultaneously at full dosage safely from day 1, especially for patients with bilateral extensive pulmonary tuberculosis, to halt disease transmission or to treat patients with life-threatening tuberculosis. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier number: NCT00405301. Output: | {'conditions': 'Drug Induced Hepatotoxicity|Tuberculosis', 'interventions': 'Drug: Rifampicin(max dose 10 mg/kg/day), Isoniazide (max dose 5 mg/kg/day) and Pyrazinamide (max dose 25 mg/kg/day)'} |

Input:LX4211, a dual SGLT1/SGLT2 inhibitor, improved glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes in a randomized, placebo-controlled trial. Thirty-six patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were randomized 1:1:1 to receive a once-daily oral dose of placebo or 150 or 300 mg of the dual SGLT1/SGLT2 inhibitor LX4211 for 28 days. Relative to placebo, LX4211 enhanced urinary glucose excretion by inhibiting SGLT2-mediated renal glucose reabsorption; markedly and significantly improved multiple measures of glycemic control, including fasting plasma glucose, oral glucose tolerance, and HbA(1c); and significantly lowered serum triglycerides. LX4211 also mediated trends for lower weight, lower blood pressure, and higher glucagon-like peptide-1 levels. In a follow-up single-dose study in 12 patients with T2DM, LX4211 (300 mg) significantly increased glucagon-like peptide-1 and peptide YY levels relative to pretreatment values, probably by delaying SGLT1-mediated intestinal glucose absorption. In both studies, LX4211 was well tolerated without evidence of increased gastrointestinal side effects.

Input:Pegfilgrastim versus filgrastim after high-dose chemotherapy and autologous peripheral blood stem cell support. American Society of Clinical Oncology guidelines recommend the use of growth factor after high-dose chemotherapy (HDC) and peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) support. This randomized trial aims to demonstrate the noninferiority of pegfilgrastim (PEG) compared with filgrastim (FIL) after HDC. Eighty patients were assigned to FIL at a daily dose of 5 mug/kg or a single fixed dose of PEG (6 mg) 1 day after PBSC. The primary end point was the duration of neutropenia both in terms of absolute neutrophil count (ANC) <0.5 x 10(9)/l and of days to reach an ANC >0.5 x 10(9)/l. The mean duration of neutropenia was 6 and 6.2 days and the mean time to reach an ANC >0.5 x 10(9)/l was 11.5 and 10.8 in the FIL and PEG group, respectively. No differences were observed in the mean time to reach an ANC >1.0 x 10(9)/l (12.2 versus 12.0 days) in the incidence of fever (62% versus 56%) and of documented infections (31% versus 25%). The mean duration of antibiotic therapy was 5.7 and 4.0 days in FIL and PEG group, respectively. PEG is not inferior to FIL in hematological reconstitution and represents an effective alternative after HDC and PBSC.

Input:Diurnal and nocturnal variations in aqueous humor dynamics of patients with ocular hypertension undergoing medical therapy. To evaluate the interaction of intraocular pressure(IOP)–lowering medications with physiologic day and night changes in aqueous humor dynamics in participants with ocular hypertension. Thirty participants were enrolled in thisdouble-masked, randomized, crossover study. Each participant underwent aqueous humor dynamics measurements at baseline and at 2 weeks of dosing in random order with latanoprost in the evening and placebo in the morning, timolol maleate twice daily, and dorzolamide hydrochloride twice daily. Measurements included central corneal thickness by ultrasound pachymetry, anterior chamber depth by A-scan, seated and habitual IOP by pneumatonometry, blood pressure by sphygmomanometry,episcleral venous pressure by venomanometry,and aqueous flow by fluorophotometry. Outflow facility was assessed by fluorophotometry and by tonography. Uveoscleral outflow was mathematically calculated using the Goldmann equation. Latanoprost use significantly decreased IOP during the day and night. It increased daytime uveoscleral outflow by a mean (SD) of 0.90 (1.46) μL/min (P=.048), but a nighttime increase of 0.26 (1.10) μL/min (P=.47)did not reach statistical significance. Timolol use decreased IOP during the day by reducing aqueous flow by 25%. Dorzolamide use lowered IOP only at the noon measurement and reduced daytime aqueous flow by 16%. Neither dorzolamide nor timolol use added to the physiologic 47% reduction in nighttime aqueous flow. The daytime IOP-lowering effects of latanoprost are mediated by an increase in uveoscleral outflow,and those of timolol and dorzolamide are mediated by aqueous flow suppression. Nighttime physiologic changes in uveoscleral outflow limit the nighttime pharmacodynamic efficacy of latanoprost. Aqueous flow suppression with timolol and dorzolamide was ineffective in obtaining IOP lowering at night. Output: | {'conditions': 'Glaucoma', 'interventions': 'Drug: prostaglandin'} |

Input:Pain perception at laser treatment of peripheral retinal degenerations with green and infrared wavelengths. To compare the pain perception at laser treatment of peripheral retinal degenerations with green (532-nm) and infrared (810-nm) wavelengths. Prospective randomized clinical trial. Sequential patients with indications for photocoagulation of bilateral peripheral retinal degenerations were invited to participate in the study. Thirty patients (60 eyes) were enrolled in the study. Each patient had 1 eye treated with infrared laser (diode, 810-nm wavelength) and the other eye treated with green laser (frequency-doubled solid-state laser, diode-pumped, with 532-nm wavelength). The eyes were randomized to infrared or green wavelengths. The right eye was the first treated in all cases regardless of the wavelength arrangement. Immediately after photocoagulation of each eye, the patient was asked to grade pain perception according to an 11-point (ie, 0-10) numerical rating scale (NRS), with 0 meaning "No pain" and 10 meaning "Pain as bad as you can imagine." The primary outcome was the assessment of pain. The mean grading of pain perception was 2.80 (SD 1.27; mode and median = 2) to green wavelengths and 5.07 (SD 1.36; mode = 4 and median = 5) to infrared wavelengths (P < .001). The results showed a statistically and clinically significant difference of pain perception between the 2 groups, with advantage to the green laser group. Output: | {'conditions': 'Laser Therapy, Low-Level', 'interventions': 'Procedure: retina photocoagulation'} |

Input:A randomized trial comparing standard versus high-dose daunorubicin induction in patients with acute myeloid leukemia. We conducted a phase 3 randomized trial comparing 2 different doses of daunorubicin as induction chemotherapy in young adults (60 years of age or younger) with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Of 383 patients who were analyzed, 189 received standard-dose daunorubicin (SD-DN, 45 mg/m² per day times 3 days) and 194 received high-dose daunorubicin (HD-DN, 90 mg/m² per day times 3 days) in addition to cytarabine (200 mg/m² per day times 7 days) to induce complete remission (CR). The CR rates were 72.0% in the SD-DN arm and 82.5% in the HD-DN arm (P = .014). At a median follow-up of 52.6 months, overall (OS) and event-free (EFS) survival were higher in the HD-DN arm than in the SD-DN arm (OS, 46.8% vs 34.6%, P = .030; EFS, 40.8% vs 28.4%, P = .030). Differences in CR rate and both OS and EFS remained significant after adjusting for other variables (CR, hazard ratio [HR], 1.802, P = .024; OS, HR, 0.739, P = .032; EFS, HR, 0.774, P = .048). The survival benefits of HD-DN therapy were evident principally in patients with intermediate-risk cytogenetic features. The toxicity profiles were similar in the 2 arms. In conclusion, HD-DN improved both the CR rate and survival duration compared with SD-DN in young adults with AML. This study is registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT00474006. Output: | {'conditions': 'ACUTE MYELOGENOUS LEUKEMIA', 'interventions': 'Drug: arm II'} |

Input:Atacicept in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and an inadequate response to tumor necrosis factor antagonist therapy: results of a phase II, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-finding trial. To assess the efficacy, safety, and biologic activity of atacicept in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in whom the response to treatment with tumor necrosis factor antagonists was inadequate. The Atacicept for Reduction of Signs and Symptoms in Rheumatoid Arthritis Trial (AUGUST I) was a multicenter, phase II, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose-finding study involving 256 patients randomized 1:1:1:1 to receive atacicept (25 mg, 75 mg, or 150 mg) or placebo twice weekly for 4 weeks, then weekly for 21 weeks, with a 13-week treatment-free followup period (week 38). The primary end point was a response at week 26 according to the American College of Rheumatology criteria for 20% improvement in disease severity, using the C-reactive protein level. No statistically significant differences were observed in the efficacy end points at week 26 (P = 0.410 for overall treatment effect). However, atacicept significantly reduced immunoglobulin and rheumatoid factor (RF) levels, but not anti-citrullinated protein antibody levels, in a dose-dependent manner, with levels returning toward baseline values during followup. The effects of treatment on IgG-RF and IgA-RF were more pronounced than the effects on total IgG and IgA. Adverse events (AEs), including serious AEs, leading to withdrawal were more common among patients treated with atacicept compared with placebo. AEs were variable in nature, and no dose-dependent trends were observed. The frequency of infection-related AEs was similar across treatments. No notable effect of treatment on immunization status (protective versus nonprotective titer) was observed after initiation of treatment. This study did not meet the primary efficacy end point. However, clear biologic activity consistent with the proposed mechanism of action was observed. The results suggest that decreasing the expression of RF may not be sufficient to induce clinical improvement in RA. The safety of atacicept was considered acceptable in this patient population. Output: | {'conditions': 'Rheumatoid Arthritis', 'interventions': 'Drug: Atacicept'} |

Input:Micro-RNA-34a contributes to the impaired function of bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells from patients with cardiovascular disease. This study evaluated the regulation and function of micro-RNAs (miRs) in bone marrow-mononuclear cells (BMCs). Although cell therapy with BMCs may represent a therapeutic option to treat patients with heart disease, the impaired functionality of patient-derived cells remains a major challenge. Small noncoding miRs post-transcriptionally control gene expression patterns and play crucial roles in modulating cell survival and function. Micro-RNAs were detected by miR profiling in BMCs isolated from healthy volunteers (n = 6) or from patients with myocardial infarction (n = 6), and the results were confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in a larger cohort (n = 37). The function of selected miRs was determined by gain-of-function studies in vitro and by locked nuclear acid (LNA) modified inhibitors in vitro and in vivo. We identified several miRs that are up-regulated in BMCs from patients with myocardial infarction compared with BMCs from healthy controls, including the pro-apoptotic and antiproliferative miR-34a and the hypoxia-controlled miR-210. Inhibition of miR-34 by LNA-34a significantly reduced miR-34a expression and blocked hydrogen peroxide-induced cell death of BMC in vitro, whereas overexpression of miR-34a reduced the survival of BMCs in vitro. Pre-treatment of BMCs with LNA-34a ex vivo significantly increased the therapeutic benefit of transplanted BMCs in mice after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). These results demonstrate that cardiovascular disease modulates the miR expression of BMCs in humans. Reducing the expression of the pro-apoptotic miR-34a improves the survival of BMCs in vitro and enhances the therapeutic benefit of cell therapy in mice after AMI.

Input:Randomized trial of paclitaxel- versus sirolimus-eluting stents for treatment of coronary restenosis in sirolimus-eluting stents: the ISAR-DESIRE 2 (Intracoronary Stenting and Angiographic Results: Drug Eluting Stents for In-Stent Restenosis 2) study. For patients with sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) restenosis requiring reintervention, we compared a strategy of repeat SES (Cypher, Cordis, Miami Lakes, Florida) implantation with paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES) (Taxus, Boston Scientific, Natick, Massachusetts) implantation. Despite their high anti-restenotic efficacy, the widespread utilization of SES therapy has led to a significant absolute number of patients presenting with SES treatment failure. The optimal treatment strategy for such patients remains unclear. The ISAR-DESIRE 2 (Intracoronary Stenting and Angiographic Results: Drug Eluting Stents for In-Stent Restenosis 2) study was a randomized, open-label, active-controlled trial conducted among 450 patients with clinically significant in-SES restenosis at 2 centers in Munich, Germany. After pre-treatment with 600 mg clopidogrel, all patients were randomly assigned to either SES or PES implantation. The primary end point was late lumen loss, based on in-stent analysis, at 6- to 8-month follow-up angiography. Secondary end points were binary angiographic restenosis (diameter stenosis >50%) at 6- to 8-month follow-up, target lesion revascularization, the composite of death or myocardial infarction, and definite stent thrombosis at 12 months. Regarding anti-restenotic efficacy, there were no differences between SES and PES in late loss (0.40 +/- 0.65 mm vs. 0.38 +/- 0.59 mm; p = 0.85), binary restenosis (19.6% vs. 20.6%; p = 0.69), or target lesion revascularization (16.6% vs. 14.6%; p = 0.52). In terms of safety outcomes, the rates of death/myocardial infarction (6.1% vs. 5.8%; p = 0.86) and stent thrombosis (0.4% vs. 0.4%; p > 0.99) were also similar. In cases of SES restenosis, treatment with either repeat SES or switch to PES was associated with a comparable degree of efficacy and safety. Drug resistance at an individual patient level may play a contributory role to the somewhat higher than expected late loss observed with the SES in the current study. (Intracoronary Stenting and Angiographic Results: Drug-Eluting Stents for In-Stent Restenosis 2 [ISAR-DESIRE 2]; NCT00598715).

Input:Phase 2a randomized controlled trial of short-term activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics of a novel nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, RDEA806, in HIV-1-positive, antiretroviral-naive subjects. RDEA806 is a novel nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) with potent in vitro activity against wild-type and NNRTI-resistant HIV-1. A phase 2a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalating study evaluated the short-term antiviral activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PKs) of RDEA806 monotherapy in antiretroviral-naïve, HIV-1-infected subjects. The subjects were randomized to four cohorts comprising four dosage regimens and two formulations of RDEA806 or placebo in a 3:1 ratio within each cohort. The investigators were blinded to the results for each cohort. The subjects received RDEA806 or placebo for 7 days. The primary end point was the change in the HIV RNA load from the baseline to day 9 for each of the four RDEA806 dose regimens compared to that achieved with placebo. The RDEA806 PKs and the immune response to RDEA806 were evaluated along with the safety and tolerability of each dose. Of a total of 48 enrolled subjects, 36 subjects (9 in each cohort) were randomized to RDEA806 study drug, and 12 (3 in each cohort) took placebo. A statistically significant decrease in the viral load from the baseline to day 9 was observed for all RDEA806 treatment groups (P<0.001). On day 9, the mean changes in the HIV RNA load from that at the baseline were -1.95 log10 copies/ml (400 mg twice a day), -1.39 log10 copies/ml (600 mg once a day [q.d.]), -1.62 log10 copies/ml (800 mg q.d.), and -1.70 log1) copies/ml (1,000 mg q.d.). The pharmacokinetics were linear and dose proportional. Treatment with RDEA806 was well tolerated, and there were no discontinuations due to adverse events. In conclusion, all doses of RDEA806 were safe and well tolerated and exhibited robust antiretroviral activity in this short-term monotherapy study with antiretroviral-naïve HIV-infected subjects. RDEA806 is a potent and promising novel NNRTI. Output: | {'conditions': 'HIV Infections', 'interventions': 'Drug: RDEA806|Drug: Placebo'} |

Input:Efficacy and safety of a recombinant hepatitis E vaccine in healthy adults: a large-scale, randomised, double-blind placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial. Seroprevalence data suggest that a third of the world's population has been infected with the hepatitis E virus. Our aim was to assess efficacy and safety of a recombinant hepatitis E vaccine, HEV 239 (Hecolin; Xiamen Innovax Biotech, Xiamen, China) in a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial. Healthy adults aged 16-65 years in, Jiangsu Province, China were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive three doses of HEV 239 (30 microg of purified recombinant hepatitis E antigen adsorbed to 0.8 mg aluminium hydroxide suspended in 0.5 mL buffered saline) or placebo (hepatitis B vaccine) given intramuscularly at 0, 1, and 6 months. Randomisation was done by computer-generated permuted blocks and stratified by age and sex. Participants were followed up for 19 months. The primary endpoint was prevention of hepatitis E during 12 months from the 31st day after the third dose. Analysis was based on participants who received all three doses per protocol. Study participants, care givers, and investigators were all masked to group and vaccine assignments. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01014845. 11,165 of the trial participants were tested for hepatitis E virus IgG, of which 5285 (47%) were seropositive for hepatitis E virus. Participants were randomly assigned to vaccine (n=56,302) or placebo (n=56,302). 48,693 (86%) participants in the vaccine group and 48,663 participants (86%) in the placebo group received three vaccine doses and were included in the primary efficacy analysis. During the 12 months after 30 days from receipt of the third dose 15 per-protocol participants in the placebo group developed hepatitis E compared with none in the vaccine group. Vaccine efficacy after three doses was 100.0% (95% CI 72.1-100.0). Adverse effects attributable to the vaccine were few and mild. No vaccination-related serious adverse event was noted. HEV 239 is well tolerated and effective in the prevention of hepatitis E in the general population in China, including both men and women age 16-65 years.

Input:Comparable efficacy and superior gastrointestinal tolerability (nausea, vomiting, constipation) of tapentadol compared with oxycodone hydrochloride. Two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies in acute and chronic pain treatment, powered to assess noninferiority of the efficacy of tapentadol immediate release (IR) (50 mg, 75 mg) versus oxycodone hydrochloride (HCl) IR (10 mg), established comparable efficacy of tapentadol IR with oxycodone HCl IR, and suggested tapentadol IR's improved gastrointestinal tolerability. The impact of these equianalgesic doses of tapentadol and oxycodone HCl on bowel function and gastrointestinal tolerability was then directly assessed in the current study, using a validated bowel function diary to comprehensively assess opioid-induced constipation symptoms and outcomes. In this double-blind study, patients with end-stage joint disease were randomized to tapentadol IR (50 mg or 75 mg), oxycodone HCl IR 10 mg, or placebo. Treatment with IR formulations (14 days) was followed by treatment (28 days) with extended-release (ER) formulations of active drugs (or placebo). Oxycodone HCl IR treatment significantly decreased (P<0.001) mean (SD) number of spontaneous bowel movements over the 14-day period (average per week: [6.7 (5.44)] versus tapentadol IR 50 mg [9.0 (4.04)], tapentadol IR 75 mg [8.6 (4.65)], and placebo [9.9 (5.16)]) (primary measure), confirming the tolerability findings of the earlier studies. Additionally, incidences of nausea and vomiting were significantly lower over the 14-day period (nominal P<0.001) for tapentadol IR 50 and 75 mg, versus oxycodone HCl IR 10 mg. Results with ER formulations of tapentadol and oxycodone HCl over a longer treatment period were consistent with those of IR formulations. Tapentadol IR (50 mg, 75 mg) consistently demonstrated superior gastrointestinal tolerability, including for the most commonly reported events, such as nausea, vomiting, and constipation at doses that provide comparable efficacy with oxycodone HCl IR 10 mg. These findings validate and extend the tolerability findings of the two earlier studies that established comparable efficacy of these tapentadol and oxycodone HCl doses. Output: | {'conditions': 'Joint Diseases|Arthritis|Osteoarthritis', 'interventions': 'Drug: oxycodone CR|Drug: oxycodone IR|Drug: Tapentadol ER (CG5503)|Drug: Tapentadol IR (CG5503)|Drug: Tapentadol IR (CG5503)|Drug: placebo|Drug: placebo'} |

Input:Randomized clinical trial of quick-release bromocriptine among patients with type 2 diabetes on overall safety and cardiovascular outcomes. Quick-release bromocriptine (bromocriptine-QR), a D2 dopamine receptor agonist, is indicated as a treatment for type 2 diabetes. The Cycloset Safety Trial, a 52-week, randomized, double-blind, multicenter trial, evaluated the overall safety and cardiovascular safety of this novel therapy for type 2 diabetes. A total of 3,095 patients with type 2 diabetes were randomized 2:1 to bromocriptine-QR or placebo in conjunction with the patient's usual diabetes therapy (diet controlled only or up to two antidiabetes medications, including insulin). The all-cause-safety end point was the occurrence of any serious adverse event (SAE), with a hazard ratio (HR) noninferiority margin of 1.5. In a prespecified analysis, the frequency of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events defined as a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization, and hospitalization for angina or congestive heart failure was evaluated using modified intent-to-treat analysis (clinicaltrials.gov, NCT00377676). In the bromocriptine-QR group, 176 (8.6%) people reported SAEs compared with 98 (9.6%) in the placebo group (HR 1.02 [96% one-sided CI 1.27]). Fewer people reported a CVD end point in the bromocriptine-QR group versus the placebo group (37 [1.8%] vs. 32 [3.2%], respecively) (HR 0.60 [95% two-sided CI 0.35-0.96]). Nausea was the most commonly reported adverse event in the bromocriptine-QR group. The frequency of SAEs was comparable between the treatment arms. Compared with patients in the placebo arm, fewer patients taking bromocriptine-QR experienced a cardiovascular end point. Output: | {'conditions': 'Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus', 'interventions': 'Drug: Cycloset|Drug: Usual Diabetes Therapy plus placebo'} |

Input:Randomized controlled trial of standard versus high-dose intravenous omeprazole after endoscopic therapy in high-risk patients with acute peptic ulcer bleeding. Rebleeding from peptic ulcers is a major contributor to death. This study compared standard (40-mg intravenous infusion of omeprazole once daily for 3 days) and high-dose (80-mg bolus of omeprazole followed by 8-mg/h infusion for 72 h) in reducing the rebleeding rate (primary endpoint), need for surgery, duration of hospital stay and mortality in patients with peptic ulcer bleeding after successful endoscopic therapy. This was a single-institution prospective randomized controlled study based on a postulated therapeutic equivalence of the two treatments. All patients who had successful endoscopic haemostasis of a bleeding peptic ulcer (Forrest classification Ia, Ib, IIa or IIb) were recruited. Informed consent was obtained and patients were randomized to receive standard- or high-dose infusions of intravenous omeprazole. Two (3 per cent) of 61 patients in the high-dose group and ten (16 per cent) of 61 in the standard-dose group exhibited rebleeding, a difference of - 13 (95 per cent confidence interval - 25 to - 2) per cent. The upper limit of the one-sided confidence interval exceeded a predefined equivalence absolute difference of 16 per cent. Equivalence of standard- and high-dose omeprazole in preventing rebleeding was not demonstrated. Intravenous standard-dose omeprazole was inferior to high-dose omeprazole in preventing rebleeding after endoscopic haemostasis for peptic ulcer bleeding. NCT00519519 (http://www.clinicaltrials.gov). Output: | {'conditions': 'Bleeding Peptic Ulcers Disease', 'interventions': 'Drug: Omeprazole'} |

Input:Inflammatory state of type II diabetic patients with chronic ulcers in response to herbal treatment. Type II diabetic patients easily develop ulcers over their feet which heal with great difficulties and not infrequently, end up in amputations. In the quest for innovative means to avoid amputation, herbal medicine has been used in China to heal ulcers. A randomized placebo controlled clinical trial involving 80 patients was conducted to test whether a herbal formula taken orally could help to preserve the ulcerated leg. Other parameters measured included granulation maturation time, skin temperature and circulation, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). showed a 85% limb rescue with the herbal treatment group showing superiority over placebo group. TNF-α decline was observed with gradual ulcer healing and the herbal supplement group showed a more impressive decline (p=0.037).

Input:Intralesional lymphokine-activated killer cells as adjuvant therapy for primary glioblastoma. Despite recent advances, median survival for patients with resectable glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is only 12 to 15 months. We previously observed minimal toxicity and a 9.0-month median survival after treatment with intralesional autologous lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells in 40 patients with recurrent GBM. In this study, GBM patients were treated with adjuvant intralesional LAK cells. Eligible patients had completed primary therapy for GBM without disease progression. LAK cells were produced by incubating autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells with interleukin-2 for 3 to 7 days and then placed into the surgically exposed tumor cavity by a neurosurgeon. The 19 men and 14 women had a median age of 57 years. Prior therapy included surgical resection (97%), partial brain irradiation (97%), gamma knife radiosurgery (97%), and temozolomide chemotherapy (70%). Median time from diagnosis to LAK cell therapy was 5.3 months (range: 3.0 to 11.1 mo). LAK cell treatment was well tolerated; average length of hospitalization was 3 days. At the time of this analysis, 27 patients have died; the median survival from the date of original diagnosis is 20.5 months with a 1-year survival rate of 75%. In subset analyses, superior survival was observed for patients who received higher numbers of CD3+/CD16+/CD56+ (T-LAK) cells in the cell products, which was associated with not taking corticosteroids in the month before leukopheresis. Intralesional LAK cell therapy is safe and the survival sufficiently encouraging to warrant further evaluation in a randomized phase 2 trial of intralesional therapies with LAK or carmustine-impregnated wafers.

Input:Diannexin decreases inflammatory cell infiltration into the islet graft, reduces β-cell apoptosis, and improves early graft function. A major unmet challenge is to reduce the islet mass needed for insulin independence in type 1 diabetic recipients after islet transplantation. The recombinant homodimer of human annexin V, diannexin, has completed a Phase II Clinical Trial in Kidney Transplantation (NCT00615966). We developed a marginal islet mass transplantation model (10-12 islets per gram of recipient body weight) and investigated whether diannexin prevents β-cell apoptosis and improves islet graft function. Diannexin was administered to islet cell donors shortly before pancreas harvest, added to isolation reagents, and infused into recipients at the time of transplantation and repeated daily until day 4. In the syngeneic marginal islet mass transplantation model, the median time needed to achieve normoglycemia was reduced from 17.0 days among untreated controls to 3.5 days among diannexin-treated recipients (P=0.004). Histologic analysis of islet grafts harvested on day 3 posttransplantation revealed decreased macrophage (44.7%±9.8% vs. 19.2%±3.2%, P=0.007) and T-cell infiltration (25.9%±5.5% vs. 9.1%±1.1%, P=0.004), and a lower rate of islet cell apoptosis (20.5%±2.8% vs. 7.6%±2.3%, P=0.01) with diannexin treatment. Expression profiling of the islet grafts showed significantly lower levels of mRNA for the proapoptotic molecule Bid, but higher levels of interleukin-6, interferon-γ, and immunosuppressive cytokine interleukin-10. Our findings demonstrate that diannexin improves the early function of marginal mass islet grafts, and its effects are associated with reductions in inflammatory cell infiltration and β-cell death by apoptosis after islet transplantation.

Input:A double-blind, randomized study of minocycline for the treatment of negative and cognitive symptoms in early-phase schizophrenia. Current antipsychotics have only a limited effect on 2 core aspects of schizophrenia: negative symptoms and cognitive deficits. Minocycline is a second-generation tetracycline that has a beneficial effect in various neurologic disorders. Recent findings in animal models and human case reports suggest its potential for the treatment of schizophrenia. These findings may be linked to the effect of minocycline on the glutamatergic system, through inhibition of nitric oxide synthase and blocking of nitric oxide-induced neurotoxicity. Other proposed mechanisms of action include effects of minocycline on the dopaminergic system and its inhibition of microglial activation. To examine the efficacy of minocycline as an add-on treatment for alleviating negative and cognitive symptoms in early-phase schizophrenia. A longitudinal double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled design was used, and patients were followed for 6 months from August 2003 to March 2007. Seventy early-phase schizophrenia patients (according to DSM-IV) were recruited and 54 were randomly allocated in a 2:1 ratio to minocycline 200 mg/d. All patients had been initiated on treatment with an atypical antipsychotic < or = 14 days prior to study entry (risperidone, olanzapine, quetiapine, or clozapine; 200-600 mg/d chlorpromazine-equivalent doses). Clinical, cognitive, and functional assessments were conducted, with the Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS) as the primary outcome measure. Minocycline was well tolerated, with few adverse events. It showed a beneficial effect on negative symptoms and general outcome (evident in SANS, Clinical Global Impressions scale). A similar pattern was found for cognitive functioning, mainly in executive functions (working memory, cognitive shifting, and cognitive planning). Minocycline treatment was associated with improvement in negative symptoms and executive functioning, both related to frontal-lobe activity. Overall, the findings support the beneficial effect of minocycline add-on therapy in early-phase schizophrenia. clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT00733057. Output: | {'conditions': 'Negative and Cognitive Symptoms in Schizophrenia', 'interventions': 'Drug: Minocycline|Drug: Placebo (200 mg/day)'} |

Input:S-adenosyl-methionine and betaine improve early virological response in chronic hepatitis C patients with previous nonresponse. Treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) with pegylated interferon α (pegIFNα) and ribavirin results in a sustained response in approximately half of patients. Viral interference with IFNα signal transduction through the Jak-STAT pathway might be an important factor underlying treatment failure. S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAMe) and betaine potentiate IFNα signaling in cultured cells that express hepatitis C virus (HCV) proteins, and enhance the inhibitory effect of IFNα on HCV replicons. We have performed a clinical study with the aim to evaluate efficacy and safety of the addition of SAMe and betaine to treatment of CHC with pegIFNα/ribavirin. In this open-label pilot study, 29 patients with CHC who failed previous therapy with (peg)IFNα/ribavirin were treated with SAMe, betaine, pegIFNα2b and ribavirin. Treatment duration was 6 or 12 months, depending on genotype, and the protocol comprised a stopping rule at week 12 if early virological response (EVR) was not achieved. Virological and biochemical response and safety were assessed throughout the treatment. 29 patients were enrolled and treated according to the study protocol. 79% of the patients were infected with genotype 1, 72% had advanced fibrosis, 76% had previously received pegIFNα/ribavirin, and only 14% achieved EVR to the previous treatment. When treated with the study medications, 17 patients (59%) showed an EVR, only 3 (10%) however achieved a sustained virological response (SVR). SAMe and betaine were found to be safe when used with pegIFNα/ribavirin. The addition of SAMe and betaine to pegIFNα/ribavirin improves early virological response in CHC. ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00310336. Output: | {'conditions': 'Hepatitis C', 'interventions': 'Drug: S-adenosyl-L-methionine|Drug: betaine|Drug: pegylated interferon alpha2b|Drug: ribavirin'} |

Input:Influence of mandibular residual ridge resorption on objective masticatory measures of lingualized and fully bilateral balanced denture articulation. To assess the influence of mandibular residual ridge resorption (RRR) on objective masticatory measures of two occlusal schemes: lingualized occlusion (LO) and fully bilateral balanced articulation (FBBA). The enrolled patients (n=22) were randomly allocated one set of complete dentures with either LO or FBBA. Maximum occlusal force, masticatory performance (by the MPI), and mandibular movements were measured at 3- and 6-month follow-ups. Mandibular RRR was assessed as the sum of the mandibular bone height at the midline, first premolar region, and least vertical height region, and from the mental foramen to the alveolar crest, measured on panoramic radiographs; the treatment groups were subclassified into severe or moderate RRR subgroups by the value of the sum of individual measurements. Significant differences were observed in the between-subgroup comparisons (Kruskal-Wallis test) of the MPI (3 months, p=0.01; 6 months, p=0.04) and linear deviation from intercuspal position (anterior-posterior: 6 months, p=0.01; inferior-superior: 3 months, p=0.008; 6 months, p=0.02). The patients with severe RRR in the FBBA group showed a significant decrease in the MPI and increase in linear inferior deviation from intercuspal position at 3 months (post hoc comparison) as well as a significant increase in the linear posterior and inferior deviation from intercuspal position at 6 months. LO is the preferable occlusal scheme for patients with severe RRR. Output: | {'conditions': 'Jaw, Edentulous', 'interventions': 'Procedure: lingualized occlusion|Procedure: Full Bilaterally Balanced Articulation'} |

Input:Effects of a short course of eszopiclone on continuous positive airway pressure adherence: a randomized trial. Adherence to short-term continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) may predict long-term use. Unfortunately, initial CPAP intolerance may lead to poor adherence or abandonment of therapy. To determine whether a short course of eszopiclone at the onset of therapy improves long-term CPAP adherence more than placebo in adults with obstructive sleep apnea. Parallel randomized, placebo-controlled trial from March 2007 to December 2008. Randomization, maintained and concealed centrally by pharmacy personnel, was computer-generated using fixed blocks of 10. Referring physicians, investigators, and patients were blinded to the treatment assignment until after the final data were collected. (ClinicalTrials.gov registration number: NCT00612157). Academic sleep disorder center. 160 adults (mean age, 45.7 years [SD, 7.3]; mean apnea-hypopnea index, 36.9 events/h [SD, 23]) with newly diagnosed obstructive sleep apnea initiating CPAP. Eszopiclone, 3 mg (n = 76), or matching placebo (n = 78) for the first 14 nights of CPAP. Use of CPAP was measured weekly for 24 weeks. Adherence to CPAP (primary outcome) and the rate of CPAP discontinuation and improvements in symptoms (secondary outcomes) were compared. Follow-up at 1, 3, and 6 months was completed by 150, 136, and 120 patients, respectively. Patients in the eszopiclone group used CPAP for 20.8% more nights (95% CI, 7.2% to 34.4%; P = 0.003), 1.3 more hours per night for all nights (CI, 0.4 to 2.2 hours; P = 0.005), and 1.1 more hours per night of CPAP use (CI, 0.2 to 2.1 hours; P = 0.019). The hazard ratio for discontinuation of CPAP was 1.90 (CI, 1.1 to 3.4; P = 0.033) times higher in the placebo group. Side effects were reported in 7.1% of patients and did not differ between groups. Patients had severe obstructive sleep apnea treated at a specialized sleep center with frequent follow-up; results may not be generalizable to different settings. Patients' tolerance to CPAP and their reasons for discontinuation were not assessed. Compared with placebo, a short course of eszopiclone during the first 2 weeks of CPAP improved adherence and led to fewer patients discontinuing therapy. Output: | {'conditions': 'Obstructive Sleep Apnea', 'interventions': 'Drug: Eszopiclone|Drug: Placebo control'} |

Input:QVA149 demonstrates superior bronchodilation compared with indacaterol or placebo in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. This randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled, four-period crossover study assessed the efficacy and safety of once-daily QVA149, a dual bronchodilator consisting of the long-acting β2-agonist indacaterol and the long-acting muscarinic antagonist glycopyrronium (NVA237), in patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Patients (N=154) were randomly assigned to receive QVA149 (indacaterol/NVA237) 300/50 μg, indacaterol 300 μg, indacaterol 600 μg, or placebo, once daily for 7 days with a 7-day washout period between each treatment. The primary endpoint was trough forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) (mean of 23 h 15 min and 23 h 45 min post-dose values) on day 7. Other endpoints included trough FEV1 on day 1, individual time point FEV1 and monitoring and recording of all adverse events. A total of 135 (87.7%) patients completed the study (all randomly assigned patients: mean age 61.7 years, 61.4% male, post-bronchodilator FEV1 52.2% predicted, FEV1/forced vital capacity 47.6%). The estimated treatment difference (95% CI) for trough FEV1 on day 7 between QVA149 and placebo was 226 ml (192 to 260; p<0.001). The estimated treatment difference between QVA149 and indacaterol 300 and 600 μg was 123 ml (89 to 157; p<0.001) and 117 ml (83 to 150; p<0.001), respectively. The improvements in mean trough FEV1 exceeded the predefined minimal clinically important differences of 100–140 ml for QVA149 versus placebo and indacaterol. Similar results were observed on day 1. All treatments were well tolerated. QVA149 demonstrated rapid and sustained bronchodilation with significant improvements compared with indacaterol monotherapy and placebo in patients with COPD. NCT00570778. Output: | {'conditions': 'Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)', 'interventions': 'Drug: QVA149|Drug: Indacaterol|Drug: Indacaterol|Drug: placebo'} |

Input:Efficacy, safety and effect on biomarkers of AZD9668 in cystic fibrosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and effect on clinical outcomes and biomarkers of inflammation and tissue damage of the neutrophil elastase inhibitor AZD9668 (60 mg twice daily orally for 4 weeks) in cystic fibrosis. This was a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Primary outcome measures were sputum neutrophil count, lung function, 24-h sputum weight, BronkoTest® diary card data and health-related quality-of-life (revised cystic fibrosis quality-of-life questionnaire). Secondary end-points included sputum neutrophil elastase activity, inflammatory biomarkers in sputum and blood, urine and plasma desmosine (an elastin degradation marker), AZD9668 levels and safety parameters (adverse events, routine haematology, biochemistry, electrocardiogram and sputum bacteriology). 56 patients were randomised, of which 27 received AZD9668. There was no effect for AZD9668 on sputum neutrophil counts, neutrophil elastase activity, lung function or clinical outcomes, including quality of life. In the AZD9668 group, there was a trend towards reduction in sputum inflammatory biomarkers with statistically significant changes in interleukin-6, RANTES and urinary desmosine. The pattern of adverse events was similar between groups. Consistent reductions in sputum inflammatory biomarkers were seen in the AZD9668 group, and reduction in urinary desmosine suggests that AZD9668 impacts elastin cleavage by neutrophil elastase. Output: | {'conditions': 'Cystic Fibrosis', 'interventions': 'Drug: AZD9668|Drug: AZD9668 Placebo equivalent'} |

Input:Efficacy of a dose range of surinabant, a cannabinoid receptor blocker, for smoking cessation: a randomized controlled clinical trial. A hyperactive endocannabinoid signalling system may contribute to addictions. We tested the efficacy and safety of surinabant, a novel selective CB₁ cannabinoid receptor antagonist, for smoking cessation. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group clinical trial, participants were assigned to brief counselling and one of three doses of surinabant, 2.5 mg/day (n = 199), 5 mg/day (n = 204), or 10 mg/day (n = 205) or placebo (n = 202) orally for 8 weeks with 6 weeks of non-drug follow-up. For weeks 5 through 8, the 4-week continuous abstinence rates were 25.2% for placebo vs. 22.6%, 22.1% and 21.5% for 2.5 mg/day, 5 mg/day and 10 mg/day doses of surinabant (p for trend, 0.4). The gain in body weight from baseline was reduced with surinabant 2.5 mg/day, 5 mg/day and 10 mg/day (0.75 kg [SE, 0.13], 0.53 kg [SE, 0.13], and 0.24 kg [SE, 0.13], respectively, versus 1.19 kg [SE, 0.13] for placebo; p for trend, < 0.001). The most common adverse events for participants receiving active drug with a greater incidence than placebo were headache, nausea, insomnia, anxiety, nasopharyngitis, diarrhoea and hyperhidrosis. Surinabant did not improve smoking cessation rates compared with placebo, but had a small effect on reducing post-cessation weight gain. Output: | {'conditions': 'Smoking Cessation', 'interventions': 'Drug: surinabant (SR147778)|Drug: placebo'} |

Input:Immunogenicity and safety of 10-valent pneumococcal non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae protein D-conjugate vaccine (PHiD-CV) co-administered with routine childhood vaccines in Taiwan. The immunogenicity and safety of the 10-valent pneumococcal nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (H. Influenzae) protein D conjugate vaccine (PHiD-CV), co-administered with routine childhood vaccines, were assessed in Taiwanese infants. In this open study, 230 healthy infants were primed with three doses of PHiD-CV (Synflorix) and diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, hepatitis B (HBV), inactivated poliomyelitis and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) conjugate vaccine (DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib vaccine) at 1.5, 3 and 6 months of age and two doses of oral human rotavirus vaccine at 1.5 and 3 months. Pneumococcal immune responses were assessed 1 month post-dose three, by 22F-inhibition ELISA and opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) assay. Local and general solicited/unsolicited symptoms and serious adverse events (SAEs) were recorded. At least 95.4% of participants had an antibody concentration ≥ 0.2 μg/mL against each vaccine serotype. At least 96.1% of participants had an OPA titer ≥ 8 against each vaccine serotype except 6B (87.3%). All infants, but one, were seropositive for antibodies against nontypeable H. influenzae protein D. Immune responses to the co-administered vaccines were good and in line with previous reports. PHiD-CV was well tolerated, with low (≤ 6.3%) incidences of grade 3 solicited local symptoms. The frequencies of general symptoms were in line with other pneumococcal conjugate vaccine studies. There were no systematic increases in incidences of solicited general or local symptoms with successive doses. There were no reports of grade 3 fever (rectal temperature > 40 °C) or SAEs considered to be causally related to vaccination. PHiD-CV co-administered with routine childhood vaccines within the first 6 months of life, was highly immunogenic, and well tolerated in Taiwanese infants.

An open randomized multicentre study. The outcome of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated with cardiogenic shock is poor. The aim of this study was to analyse, whether upfront abciximab administration could improve the outcomes of cardiogenic shock. This multicentre open trial randomized 80 patients with AMI complicated by cardiogenic shock expected to undergo primary PCI into group A (routine upfront-pre-procedural-abciximab bolus followed by 12-h abciximab infusion) and group B (standard therapy). The study primary objective was 30-day combined outcome (death/reinfarction/stroke/new severe renal failure). PCI was technically successful in 90% (A) versus 87.5% (B) patients. Abciximab was used in 100% (A) versus 35% (B). The primary endpoint occurred in 17 group A patients (42.5%) and 11 group B patients (27.5%, P = 0.24). Ejection fraction among survivors after 30 days was 44 ± 11% (A) versus 41 ± 12% (B, P = 0.205). Major bleeding occurred in 17.5% (A) versus 7.5% (B, P = 0.310). No differences (A versus B) were found in TIMI-flow and MBG after PCI. This study did not show any benefit from routine pre-procedural abciximab when compared with a selective abciximab use during the intervention in patients with cardiogenic shock undergoing primary PCI. However, small sample size of the trial preclude any definitive conclusion, a larger prospective, randomized, multicentered trial is needed. Output: | {'conditions': 'Shock, Cardiogenic', 'interventions': 'Drug: Abciximab'} |

Input:A simplified intravenous artesunate regimen for severe malaria. We compared a conventional empirically derived regimen with a simplified regimen for parenteral artesunate in severe malaria. This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled comparison to assess the noninferiority of a simplified 3-dose regimen (given at 0, 24, and 48 hours) compared with the conventional 5-dose regimen of intravenous artesunate (given at 0, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours) in African children with Plasmodium falciparum malaria with a prespecified delta of 0.2. The total dose of artesunate in each group was 12 mg/kg. The primary end point was the proportion of children clearing ≥ 99% of their admission parasitemia at 24 hours. Safety data, secondary efficacy end points, and pharmacokinetics were also analyzed. In 171 children (per protocol), 78% of the recipients (95% confidence interval [CI], 69%-87%) in the 3-dose group achieved ≥ 99% parasite clearance 24 hours after the start of treatment, compared with 85% (95% CI, 77%-93%) of those receiving the conventional regimen (treatment difference, -7.2%; 95% CI, -18.9% to 4.4%). Dihydroartemisinin was cleared slightly more slowly in those children receiving the higher 3-dose regimen (7.4 vs 8.8 L/h for a 13-kg child; P 5 .008). Pharmacodynamic analysis suggests that 3 doses of artesunate were not inferior to 5 doses for the treatment of severe malaria in children. NCT00522132.

Input:Remote ischaemic conditioning before hospital admission, as a complement to angioplasty, and effect on myocardial salvage in patients with acute myocardial infarction: a randomised trial. Remote ischaemic preconditioning attenuates cardiac injury at elective surgery and angioplasty. We tested the hypothesis that remote ischaemic conditioning during evolving ST-elevation myocardial infarction, and done before primary percutaneous coronary intervention, increases myocardial salvage. 333 consecutive adult patients with a suspected first acute myocardial infarction were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio by computerised block randomisation to receive primary percutaneous coronary intervention with (n=166 patients) versus without (n=167) remote conditioning (intermittent arm ischaemia through four cycles of 5-min inflation and 5-min deflation of a blood-pressure cuff). Allocation was concealed with opaque sealed envelopes. Patients received remote conditioning during transport to hospital, and primary percutaneous coronary intervention in hospital. The primary endpoint was myocardial salvage index at 30 days after primary percutaneous coronary intervention, measured by myocardial perfusion imaging as the proportion of the area at risk salvaged by treatment; analysis was per protocol. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00435266. 82 patients were excluded on arrival at hospital because they did not meet inclusion criteria, 32 were lost to follow-up, and 77 did not complete the follow-up with data for salvage index. Median salvage index was 0.75 (IQR 0.50-0.93, n=73) in the remote conditioning group versus 0.55 (0.35-0.88, n=69) in the control group, with median difference of 0.10 (95% CI 0.01-0.22; p=0.0333); mean salvage index was 0.69 (SD 0.27) versus 0.57 (0.26), with mean difference of 0.12 (95% CI 0.01-0.21; p=0.0333). Major adverse coronary events were death (n=3 per group), reinfarction (n=1 per group), and heart failure (n=3 per group). Remote ischaemic conditioning before hospital admission increases myocardial salvage, and has a favourable safety profile. Our findings merit a larger trial to establish the effect of remote conditioning on clinical outcomes. Fondation Leducq.

Input:Comparison of clonidine, local anesthetics, and placebo for pain reduction in pediatric tonsillectomy. To determine if pretonsillectomy injection of local anesthetics with and without clonidine reduces pain following tonsillectomy in children. A prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Tertiary care academic medical center. A total of 120 children, ages 3 to 17 years, presenting for tonsillectomy. Patients were randomized to 1 of 3 pretonsillectomy injection groups: (1) saline, (2) lidocaine plus bupivacaine, or (3) lidocaine plus bupivacaine plus clonidine. The total number of analgesic doses consumed on postoperative days (PODs) 1, 3, 5, and 7. Secondary outcome variables included total time and intravenous analgesic doses required in the recovery room, visual analog scale pain scores, and maximum tolerated diet on postoperative days 1, 3, 5, and 7. The total number of analgesic doses on PODs 1, 3, 5, and 7 were not significantly different between the randomization groups (P = .53). The median numbers (interquartile ranges) of analgesic doses were 12.0 (9.0-16.8) for the lidocaine plus bupivacaine plus clonidine group, 12.0 (10.0-16.5) for the lidocaine plus bupivacaine group, and 14.0 (9.0-15) for the placebo group. The placebo group was found to have a more advanced diet on POD 1 (P = .04) and significantly less pain on POD 3 (P = .02). Multivariable analysis showed children in the lidocaine plus bupivacaine plus clonidine group were significantly less likely to need intravenous pain medication in the recovery room compared with children in the placebo group and again showed that the placebo group achieved a significantly more advanced diet and had less pain on PODs 1 and 3. Pretonsillectomy injection of lidocaine, 1%, and bupivacaine, 0.5%, with or without clonidine (25 μg) is not recommended for the reduction of posttonsillectomy pain. clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT00678379.

Input:Tetravalent meningococcal serogroups A, C, W-135 and Y conjugate vaccine is well tolerated and immunogenic when co-administered with measles-mumps-rubella-varicella vaccine during the second year of life: An open, randomized controlled trial. Co-administration of meningococcal ACWY-tetanus toxoid conjugate vaccine (ACWY-TT) with MMRV vaccine was investigated in 1000 12-23-month old children randomized (3:3:1:1) to receive co-administered ACWY-TT+MMRV, or a single dose of ACWY-TT, MMRV or MenC-CRM(197). Non-inferiority of ACWY-TT to MenC-CRM(197) and non-inferiority of ACWY-TT+MMRV to ACWY-TT and MMRV alone, and the immunogenicity of serogroups AWY were demonstrated according to pre-defined criteria. Fever reactions in ACWY+MMRV and MMRV groups were comparable. ACWY-TT can be co-administered with MMRV without affecting immunogenicity or safety profiles of either vaccine.

Input:Efficacy and safety of rosuvastatin therapy for children with familial hypercholesterolemia. This study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rosuvastatin therapy for children with familial hypercholesterolemia. Familial hypercholesterolemia is a common inherited disorder causing markedly elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels from birth and resulting in premature atherosclerosis. In children, statins have been shown to be effective in reducing LDL-C, restoring flow-mediated dilation, and slowing carotid intima-media thickening. However, few children in these trials achieved current LDL-C goals. This study comprised a 12-week double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, followed by a 40-week open-label, titration-to-goal extension phase in 177 pubertal children, ages 10 to 17 years, with familial hypercholesterolemia. Participants were randomly assigned to placebo or rosuvastatin 5, 10, or 20 mg once daily. Compared with placebo, rosuvastatin 5, 10, and 20 mg reduced LDL-C by 38%, 45%, and 50%, respectively (p < 0.001 for each group vs. placebo). With a maximum allowed dose of 20 mg, 40% achieved the treatment goal of <110 mg/dl during the open-label, titration-to-goal phase. Rosuvastatin was well tolerated, with no apparent adverse impact on growth or development. In children with familial hypercholesterolemia, rosuvastatin 20 mg daily reduced LDL-C by 50%. Nonetheless, only 40% attained the consensus LDL-C target of <110 mg/dl, reflecting these patients' high baseline LDL-C levels (mean, 232 mg/dl).

Input:Effect of transdermal teriparatide administration on bone mineral density in postmenopausal women. Treatment of osteoporosis with an anabolic agent, teriparatide [human PTH 1-34 (TPTD)], is effective in reducing incident fractures, but patient resistance to daily sc injections has limited its use. A novel transdermal patch, providing a rapid, pulse delivery of TPTD, may provide a desirable alternative. The aim of the study was to determine the safety and efficacy of a novel transdermal TPTD patch compared to placebo patch and sc TPTD 20-microg injection in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Our study consisted of 6-month, randomized, placebo-controlled, positive control, multidose daily administration. We enrolled 165 postmenopausal women (mean age, 64 yr) with osteoporosis. A TPTD patch with a 20-, 30-, or 40-microg dose or a placebo patch was self-administered daily for 30-min wear time, or 20 microg of TPTD was injected daily. The primary efficacy measure was mean percentage change in lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) from baseline at 6 months. TPTD delivered by transdermal patch significantly increased lumbar spine BMD vs. placebo patch in a dose-dependent manner at 6 months (P < 0.001). TPTD 40-microg patch increased total hip BMD compared to both placebo patch and TPTD injection (P < 0.05). Bone turnover markers (procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide and C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen) increased from baseline in a dose-dependent manner in all treatment groups and were all significantly different from placebo patch (P < 0.001). All treatments were well tolerated, and no prolonged hypercalcemia was observed. Transdermal patch delivery of TPTD in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis for 6 months is safe and effective in increasing lumbar spine and total hip BMD.

Input:A randomized controlled trial of analgesia during vaccination in adults. Although immunization injections are the most common painful medical procedures, pain-relieving interventions are not routinely used. In this randomized controlled trial, we compared the effectiveness of topical anesthesia using liposomal lidocaine to: (1) vapocoolant spray using a proprietary blend of 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane and 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane; (2) nurse-administered tactile stimulation; or (3) self-directed distraction by means of reading a magazine. Liposomal lidocaine was more effective (p<or=0.05) than distraction, as assessed by self-reported pain using the visual analog scale and global report, but did not differ from either vapocoolant spray or tactile stimulation. This information can be incorporated in immunization programs. Output: | {'conditions': 'Pain|Anxiety', 'interventions': 'Drug: Liposomal lidocaine|Drug: Vapocoolant spray|Other: Rubbing adjacent to the injection site|Other: Distraction'} |

Input:Intermittent recruitment with high-frequency oscillation/tracheal gas insufflation in acute respiratory distress syndrome. In acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), recruitment sessions of high-frequency oscillation (HFO) and tracheal gas insufflation (TGI) with short-lasting recruitment manoeuvres (RMs) may improve oxygenation and enable reduction of subsequent conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) pressures. We determined the effect of adding HFO-TGI sessions to lung-protective CMV on early/severe ARDS outcome. We conducted a prospective clinical trial, subdivided into a first single-centre period and a second two-centre period. We enrolled 125 (first period, n = 54) patients with arterial oxygen tension (P(a,O(2)))/inspiratory oxygen fraction (F(I,O(2))) of <150 mmHg for >12 consecutive hours at an end-expiratory pressure of ≥ 8 cmH(2)O. Patients were randomly assigned to an HFO-TGI group (receiving HFO-TGI sessions with RMs, interspersed with lung-protective CMV; n = 61) or CMV group (receiving lung-protective CMV and RMs; n = 64). The primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge. Pre-enrolment ventilation duration was variable. During days 1-10 post-randomisation, P(a,O(2))/F(I,O(2))), oxygenation index, plateau pressure and respiratory compliance were improved in the HFO-TGI group versus the CMV group (p < 0.001 for group × time). Within days 1-60, the HFO-TGI group had more ventilator-free days versus the CMV group (median (interquartile range) 31.0 (0.0-42.0) versus 0.0 (0.0-23.0) days; p < 0.001), and more days without respiratory, circulatory, renal, coagulation and liver failure (p ≤ 0.003). Survival to hospital discharge was higher in the HFO-TGI group versus the CMV group (38 (62.3%) out of 61 versus 23 (35.9%) out of 64 subjects; p = 0.004). Intermittent recruitment with HFO-TGI and RMs may improve survival in early/severe ARDS.

Input:Unilateral low frequency versus sequential bilateral repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation: is simpler better for treatment of resistant depression? Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) efficacy in the treatment of major depression has been shown in both low frequency right-sided and high frequency left-sided stimulation over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). The aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the hypothesis of an additive effect of bilateral stimulation compare to sequential to unilateral stimulation. Sixty patients with treatment-resistant depression were assigned to receive either low-frequency rTMS over the right DLPFC (140 s x 1 Hz) followed by controlateral sham (unilateral group, n=20), low frequency right DLPFC rTMS followed by left DLPFC high frequency rTMS (5 s x 10 Hz) (bilateral group, n=20), or bilateral sham (sham group, n=20) in a 3 weeks double-blind, randomized trial. The primary outcome variable was the score on Hamilton Depression Scale (HAM-D). Low frequency right-sided and sequential bilateral stimulation showed different antidepressant efficacy at 3 weeks and across the full duration of the study, only the unilateral method appearing significantly more effective than sham at the end of the trial, and correlated to the higher percent of remitters (30% of the group vs. 10% -bilateral- and 5% -sham). Unilateral stimulation, but not bilateral, showed higher antidepressant efficacy compared to sham stimulation. The data suggest that right-sided low frequency stimulation may be a first line treatment alternative in resistant depression. To confirm and extend these findings further studies require a longer follow-up period, supported by biological observation and replication. Output: | {'conditions': 'Major Depression', 'interventions': 'Device: repetitive transcranial stimulation (rTMS)|Device: unilateral stimulation'} |

Input:Silodosin therapy for lower urinary tract symptoms in men with suspected benign prostatic hyperplasia: results of an international, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active-controlled clinical trial performed in Europe. Silodosin is a new selective therapy with a high pharmacologic selectivity for the α(1A)-adrenoreceptor. Our aim was to test silodosin's superiority to placebo and noninferiority to tamsulosin and discuss the findings in the context of a comprehensive literature review of the new compound silodosin. We conducted a multicenter double-blind, placebo- and active-controlled parallel group study. A total of 1228 men ≥50 yr of age with an International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) ≥13 and a urine maximum flow rate (Q(max)) >4 and ≤15 ml/s were selected at 72 sites in 11 European countries. The patients were entered into a 2-wk wash-out and a 4-wk placebo run-in period. A total of 955 patients were randomized (2:2:1) to silodosin 8 mg (n=381), tamsulosin 0.4 mg (n=384), or placebo (n=190) once daily for 12 wk. We calculated the change from baseline in IPSS total score (primary), storage and voiding subscores, quality of life (QoL) due to urinary symptoms, and Q(max). Responders were defined on the basis of IPSS and Q(max) by a decrease of ≥25% and an increase of ≥30% from baseline, respectively. The change from baseline in the IPSS total score with silodosin and tamsulosin was significantly superior to that with placebo (p<0.001): difference active placebo of -2.3 (95% confidence interval [CI], -3.2, -1.4) with silodosin and -2.0 (95% CI,-2.9, -1.1) with tamsulosin. Responder rates according to total IPSS were significantly higher (p<0.001) with silodosin (66.8%) and tamsulosin (65.4%) than with placebo (50.8%). Active treatments were also superior to placebo in the IPSS storage and voiding subscore analyses, as well as in QoL due to urinary symptoms. Of note, only silodosin significantly reduced nocturia versus placebo (the change from baseline was -0.9, -0.8, and -0.7 for silodosin, tamsulosin, and placebo, respectively; p=0.013 for silodosin vs placebo). An increase in Q(max) was observed in all groups. The adjusted mean change from baseline to end point was 3.77 ml/s for silodosin, 3.53 ml/s for tamsulosin, and 2.93 ml/s for placebo, but the change for silodosin and tamsulosin was not statistically significant versus placebo because of a particularly high placebo response (silodosin vs placebo: p=0.089; tamsulosin vs placebo: p=0.221). At end point, the percentage of responders by Q(max) was 46.6%, 46.5%, and 40.5% in the silodosin, tamsulosin, and placebo treatment groups, respectively. This difference was not statistically significantly (p=0.155 silodosin vs placebo and p=0.141 tamsulosin vs placebo). Active treatments were well tolerated, and discontinuation rates due to adverse events were low in all groups (2.1%, 1.0%, and 1.6% with silodosin, tamsulosin, and placebo, respectively). The most frequent adverse event with silodosin was a reduced or absent ejaculation during orgasm (14%), a reversible effect as a consequence of the potent and selective α(1A)-adrenoreceptor antagonism of the drug. The incidence was higher than that observed with tamsulosin (2%); however, only 1.3% of silodosin-treated patients discontinued treatment due to this adverse event. Silodosin is an effective and well-tolerated treatment for the relief of both voiding and storage symptoms in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms suggestive of bladder outlet obstruction thought to be associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia. Its overall efficacy is not inferior to tamsulosin. Only silodosin showed a significant effect on nocturia over placebo. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT00359905. Output: | {'conditions': 'Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia', 'interventions': 'Drug: Silodosin|Drug: Tamsulosin|Drug: Placebo'} |

Input:Efficacy and safety of sitagliptin added to ongoing metformin therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sitagliptin as an add-on to metformin therapy in patients with moderately severe (hemoglobin A(1c) >or= 8.0% and <or= 11.0%) type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This was a multinational, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, double-blind study conducted in 190 patients with T2DM. After >or= 6 weeks of stable metformin monotherapy (>or= 1500 mg/day), patients were randomized to either the addition of sitagliptin 100 mg once daily or placebo to ongoing metformin for 30 weeks. The primary efficacy endpoint was reduction in hemoglobin A(1c) (HbA(1c)) measured after 18 weeks of sitagliptin treatment. Key secondary endpoints included reduction in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and 2-hour (2-h) postprandial plasma glucose (PPG) at 18 weeks, and HbA(1c) at 30 weeks. The proportion of patients meeting the goal of HbA(1c) < 7.0% was also analyzed. Sitagliptin significantly reduced HbA(1c), FPG, and 2-h PPG, compared with placebo (all p < 0.001). The net improvement in HbA(1c) was - 1.0% at both 18 and 30 weeks, and a significantly greater proportion of patients treated with sitagliptin achieved HbA(1c) < 7.0% by the end of the study (22.1% vs. 3.3%, p < 0.001). Sitagliptin was well-tolerated. Compared with placebo, sitagliptin had a neutral effect on body weight and did not significantly increase the risk of hypoglycemia or gastrointestinal adverse events. Addition of sitagliptin 100 mg once daily to ongoing metformin therapy was well-tolerated and resulted in significant glycemic improvement in patients with moderately severe T2DM who were treated for 30 weeks. Output: | {'conditions': 'Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)', 'interventions': 'Drug: sitagliptin 100 mg q.d./metformin ≥ 1500 mg/day|Drug: comparator: placebo to match sitagliptin 100 mg q.d./metformin ≥ 1500 mg/day'} |

Input:Safety and tolerability of levocetirizine dihydrochloride in infants and children with allergic rhinitis or chronic urticaria. Allergic rhinitis (AR) and chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU) are common causes of substantial illness and disability in preschool children. Antihistamines are commonly used to treat preschool children with these conditions, but their use is based mostly on extrapolated efficacy from adult populations; it is thus important to characterize the safety of antihistamines in the pediatric population. This study was designed to assess the safety of levocetirizine dihydrochloride oral liquid drops in infants and children with AR or CIU. Two multicenter, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group studies randomized infants aged 6-11 months (study 1, n = 69) and children aged 1-5 years (study 2, n = 173) to levocetirizine, 1.25 mg (q.d. or b.i.d., respectively), or placebo for 2 weeks, using a 2:1 ratio. Safety evaluations included treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), vital signs, electrocardiographic (ECG) assessments, and laboratory tests. The overall incidence of TEAEs was similar between levocetirizine and placebo in both studies. Most TEAEs were mild or moderate in intensity. TEAEs prompted discontinuation of therapy in three patients receiving levocetirizine in study 1. No clinically relevant changes from baseline in vital signs or laboratory parameters were apparent in either study; changes from baseline in these evaluations were similar between groups. No significant changes were observed in ECG parameters, including corrected QT interval. Levocetirizine, 1.25 and 2.5 mg/day, was well tolerated in infants aged 6-11 months and in children aged 1-5 years, respectively, with AR or CIU. Output: | {'conditions': 'Allergic Rhinitis|Chronic Urticaria', 'interventions': 'Drug: Levocetirizine 1.25 mg|Other: Placebo'} |
