| New Formulation | NCT04039828 ↗ | Zinc Sulfate Acceptability | Completed | International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh | N/A | 2019-09-09 | Introduction: Zinc (Zn) is an essential mineral widely distributed within the human body with metalloproteins, Zinc-binding proteins, etc. It is necessary for signal transduction and also cell growth and proliferation via respective metallo- and zinc-dependent enzymes. Zinc supplementation can significantly reduce diarrheal severity and duration as well as prevents future incidences and reduces use of other medications in diarrhoea. For this reason WHO, UNICEF, USAID and experts worldwide jointly recommended zinc supplementation (10 mg for infants less than 6 months old and 20 mg in 6 - 59 months old) combined with reduced osmolarity ORS for clinical management of acute diarrhoea. But due to strong metallic taste zinc products are less palatable to children even after using masking flavours as recommended by WHO. Several companies have formulated the product since WHO recommendations came but still transient side effects like vomiting and regurgitation remain evident. Despite careful counselling to the caregivers expected adherence rate to 10 days regimen of zinc supplement is yet to be reached. With the aim to increase zinc supplement coverage during acute diarrheal illness, it is necessary to conduct a study to introduce new formulation Zinc tablet which is more palatable, more dispersible and more acceptable. Intervention: Zinc sulfate [Zinc Dispersible Tablet, 20 mg; (Elemental Zinc 20 mg as Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate / Tablet)] Methods: Prospective, open label, interventional study Hypothesis: Improved formulation of Zinc Sulfate will have good acceptability. Study population: Stratum 1: 3 months - <18 months = 175 children Stratum 2: 18 months - 59 months = 175 children Objectives: 1. Primary Objective: Acceptability of the zinc product in the management of childhood diarrhea will be assessed by observing: i) Incidence of vomiting or regurgitation among enrolled children receiving the improvised zinc formulation. ii) The adherence: The number of days (out of the total 10 days) the child took the protocol-prescribed dose of the medicine. The treatment will be considered to have good acceptability if at least 80% of the prescribed treatment is taken by at least 70% of the children over the duration of 10 days, as per WHO guidelines. 2. Secondary objective : To assess palatability Secondary end point evaluation (Palatability): The statistical analysis will comprise the calculation of the percentage of patients out of 350 who found the investigational product to have "very well-tolerated, well-tolerated or tolerated" scores (i.e. any of the upper 3 possible scores). A 95% confidence interval, using the normal approximation of the binomial distribution, will be calculated for the percentage. |

| NCT00004361 ↗ | Study of the Relationship Between Calcium Levels and Intact Parathyroid Hormone (iPTH) in Adults With Repaired or Palliated Conotruncal Cardiac Defects | Completed | Ann & Robert H Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago | 1995-07-01 | OBJECTIVES: I. Identify latent hypoparathyroidism in normocalcemic adult survivors with repaired conotruncal cardiac defects, by evaluating parathyroid gland secretory function after induced hypocalcemia. II. Determine the relationship of parathyroid hormone secretion to microdeletions in the same region of chromosome 22q11 as found in patients with DiGeorge anomaly. | |
| NCT00004361 ↗ | Study of the Relationship Between Calcium Levels and Intact Parathyroid Hormone (iPTH) in Adults With Repaired or Palliated Conotruncal Cardiac Defects | Completed | National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) | 1995-07-01 | OBJECTIVES: I. Identify latent hypoparathyroidism in normocalcemic adult survivors with repaired conotruncal cardiac defects, by evaluating parathyroid gland secretory function after induced hypocalcemia. II. Determine the relationship of parathyroid hormone secretion to microdeletions in the same region of chromosome 22q11 as found in patients with DiGeorge anomaly. | |
| NCT00058188 ↗ | Zolendronate for the Prevention of Bone Loss in Men w/ Prostate CA on Long-Term Androgen Deprivation | Terminated | Novartis | Phase 3 | 2003-03-01 | RATIONALE: Zoledronate may prevent bone loss associated with long term androgen deprivation therapy. It is not yet known whether zoledronate combined with calcium is more effective than calcium alone in preventing bone loss. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of zoledronate combined with calcium with that of calcium alone in preventing bone loss in patients with stage III or stage IV prostate cancer who have received long-term androgen deprivation therapy. |
| NCT00058188 ↗ | Zolendronate for the Prevention of Bone Loss in Men w/ Prostate CA on Long-Term Androgen Deprivation | Terminated | Northwestern University | Phase 3 | 2003-03-01 | RATIONALE: Zoledronate may prevent bone loss associated with long term androgen deprivation therapy. It is not yet known whether zoledronate combined with calcium is more effective than calcium alone in preventing bone loss. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of zoledronate combined with calcium with that of calcium alone in preventing bone loss in patients with stage III or stage IV prostate cancer who have received long-term androgen deprivation therapy. |
| NCT00316914 ↗ | Calcium Gluconate and Magnesium Sulfate in Preventing Neurotoxicity Caused By Oxaliplatin in Patients Receiving Combination Chemotherapy for Stage II, Stage III, or Stage IV Colorectal Cancer That Has Been Completely Removed By Surgery | Completed | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | Phase 3 | 2006-01-01 | RATIONALE: Calcium gluconate and magnesium sulfate may prevent or lessen neurotoxicity caused by oxaliplatin. It is not yet known whether calcium gluconate and magnesium sulfate are more effective than a placebo in preventing neurotoxicity caused by oxaliplatin in patients receiving combination chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying calcium gluconate and magnesium sulfate to see how well they work compared to a placebo in preventing neurotoxicity caused by oxaliplatin in patients receiving combination chemotherapy for stage II, stage III, or stage IV colorectal cancer that has been completely removed by surgery. |
