A Phase 1b Study of Thymosin Beta 4 in Healthy Volunteers

Registered Phase 1 interventional trial (completed). The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerance, pharmacokinetics and the potential immunological reaction of single intravenous recombinant human thymosin β4(NL005)or placebo 0.5, 2.0,5.0μg/kg in Chinese healthy volunteers.30 volunteers will be randomly assigned to one of three groups to receive either NL005 or placebo for 10 consecutive days.

Comparative Effectiveness of Empagliflozin in the US

Registered observational trial (active not recruiting). Empagliflozin, a sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor, was launched as a treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the U.S. in August 2014. In contrast with several previous cardiovascular outcomes trials, which failed to demonstrate an association with a higher or a lower risk of cardiovascular outcomes associated with members of other recently marketed antidiabetic classes, the EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial has shown that patients at high cardiovascular risk randomized to empagliflozin vs. placebo, were associated with a r

Study of Intranasal Octreotide (DP1038) in Healthy Adult Volunteers

Registered Phase 1 interventional trial (completed). The purpose of the study is to investigate the drug octreotide acetate in a new intranasal formulation and compare it to the FDA-approved subcutaneous (SC) injection formulation. The two octreotide acetate formulations will be evaluated following separate administrations for safety and tolerability including any side effects, the speed at which the drug is absorbed and eliminated in the body, and the ability of the drug to lower the levels of growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1).

Diagnosing Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency

Registered N/A interventional trial (completed). The purpose of this study was to validate the growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH) plus arginine (GHRH+arg) stimulation test and it´s cut-off limits for diagnosis of adult growth hormone deficiency using the growth hormone (GH) Immulite 2000 Xpi assay calibrated against the IS 98/574 from the World Health Organization. A specific aim was to study the effect of gender and age on the peak GH response in the GHRH+arg test

Dehydroepiandrosterone Versus Growth Hormone in Women Undergoing ICSI With Expected Poor Ovarian Response

Registered Phase 3 interventional trial (unknown). 300 women with expected poor ovarian response (POR) undergoing in vitro fertilization or intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) will be randomly divided into 2 equal groups using computer generated random numbers. Group 1 will receive Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) 25 mg ( DHEA 25mg, Natrol , USA) t.d.s daily for 12 weeks before starting IVF/ICSI cycle and a placebo similar to growth hormone (GH) daily from day 6 of stimulation until the day of human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) trigger. Group 2 will receive an oral placebo t.d.s. daily for

Estradiol-Receptor Blockade in Older Men and Women

Registered Phase 1 interventional trial (completed). Repletion of testosterone (Te) in older men drives GH secretion after its aromatization to estradiol (E2), which acts via the estrogen receptor (ER). Conversely, we postulate that estrogen deprivation in postmenopausal women attenuates growth hormone (GH) secretion and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-I) production, thus favoring development of metabolic syndrome in men treated with toremifene, a new estrogen antagonist used adjunctively in prostatic cancer

A Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Injectable Thymosin Beta 4 for Treating Acute Myocardial Infarction

Registered Phase 2 interventional trial (withdrawn). The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of two active doses of RGN-352 (thymosin beta 4, Tβ4, Injectable Solution) in patients with acute myocardial infarction receiving percutaneous coronary intervention angioplasty with or without stent placement. Approximately 75 subjects will be randomized to receive one of two RGN-352 doses of 1200 mg, or 450 mg, or placebo, administered iv by iv push daily for the first 3 consecutive days and weekly for 4 more weeks.

A Study to Evaluate CJC 1295 in HIV Patients With Visceral Obesity

Registered Phase 2 interventional trial (terminated). This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, Phase 2 study. Patients will be treated for a total of 12 weeks. There will be a 6 week follow-up period after the treatment period ends. Patients will be randomly assigned to low dose CJC 1295, high dose CJC 1295 or placebo. The objective is to assess and compare the efficacy, pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of CJC 1295 in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) associated visceral obesity.
