| NCT01663922 ↗ | Boceprevir and Ucalm (St John&Apos;s Wort) | Completed | University of Liverpool | Phase 1 | 2012-08-01 | The purpose of the study is to look at whether taking a new medication for hepatitis C (boceprevir) together with a herbal remedy commonly used for the treatment of depression (SJW) has any effect on the levels of boceprevir in the blood, compared to when boceprevir is taken on its own. Treatment of hepatitis C genotype-1, has recently been significantly improved with the addition of a new class of drugs called protease inhibitors (PIs). Boceprevir belongs to this class of antiviral drugs and it is administered in combinations with other drugs to treat hepatitis C. One of the common side effects of treatment for hepatitis C is low mood (depression) for which treated patients may self-medicate with preparations containing St. Johns Wort (SJW). SJW is known to cause drug interactions, so taking SJW at the same time as boceprevir may result in a change in how both of these drugs usually work. It is therefore important to find out if the levels of boceprevir in the blood are significantly affected by taking SJW. The study aims to help us understand whether it will be safe to take SJW whilst being simultaneously treated for hepatitis C with boceprevir. |

| NCT02354573 ↗ | The Role of Chronotropic Incompetence in Heart Failure With Normal Ejection Fraction (HFNEF) | Completed | University of Aberdeen | N/A | 2011-12-01 | What is heart failure with normal ejection fraction? The heart contracts (pumps) and relaxes with each heartbeat. In some people with heart failure, the heart contracts normally but there is reduced relaxation of the heart. As a result, people notice a feeling of breathlessness, ankle swelling and fatigue especially on exertion. The investigators feel that patients with reduced or impaired relaxation of the heart have less heart filling time and poor energy utilisation during exercise. Therefore, the investigators are conducting a study to more thoroughly understand the disease condition by giving a drug called ivabradine to reduce the heart rate and hence to increase the heart filling time in these patients. |
