To assess the efficacy of octreotide LAR in decreasing the need for transfusions and endoscopic intervention in patients ROW with refractory anaemia due to gastrointestinal bleeding telangiectasias.
The primary endopoint is to determine whether ketoconazole/octreotide combination therapy, followed by octreotide monotherapy, is an effective treatment for Cushing's disease. Secundary endpoints address the effects of this therapy on bone…
Reduction of polycystic liver volume by treating with octreotide, whether or not combined with everolimus. Assessing whether combination therapy of everolimus and octreotide gives a bigger reduction of polycystic liver volume than octreotide…
With this trial we want to compare both somatostatin analogues, octreotide and lanreotide, in one trial, so we can see whether there is a difference in effect on liver volume in patients with polycystic livers. Furthermore, we want to find the…
- To investigate the biochemical response of ITF2984, defined as a reduction in (random) GH < 1.0 mcg/l and/or normalization of IGF-1.- To investigate the biochemical response of ITF2984, defined as a reduction of GH to no more than 2.5 mcg/l…
To assess the efficacy of octreotide in decreasing the need for iron infusions or blood transfusions in patients with refractory gastrointestinal bleedings due to small bowel angiodysplasias despite endoscopic intervention.
To determine if SSA are effective in decreasing transfusion requirements and improving quality of life while being cost-effective.
The objective of the proposed study is to determine the effectiveness, safety and cost-effectiveness of a strategy of cefuroxime combined with short course treatment with aminoglycosides compared to a strategy of ceftriaxone monotherapy in patients…
To generate high quality empirical evidence for the effectiveness in terms of proportion of patients experiencing complications, quality of life and costs of initial non-operative treatment strategy (reserving appendectomies for those not responding…
