10 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Multicenter, open-label, outpatient study of the safety and effectiveness of repeated doses of MYOBLOC over a 1-year duration in adult subjects with troublesome sialorrhea.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of MYOBLOC in the treatment of Sialorrhea (drooling), which can be a symptom of many disease conditions. MYOBLOC will be injected directly into the salivary glands. MYOBLOC has been shown in previous trials to safely decrease saliva production, thereby demonstrating its potential as a safe and effective treatment for troublesome sialorrhea.
This study is being conducted this study to determine whether injections of Xeomin®, a type of botulinum toxin into the glands that produce saliva (one pair just below and in front of the ear and the other just under the jaw line) are safe and effective to treat excessive saliva, or drooling in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD)/parkinsonism.
To determine safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of intraglandular injections of MYOBLOC for the treatment of sialorrhea in Parkinsons' Disease patients
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of Myobloc in ALS patients who are having excessive drooling. The primary goal of the study is to determine if the patient perceives a benefit from the Myobloc in controlling excessive drooling.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Incobotulinum Toxin A (Xeomin®) injections into the parotid and submandibular glands in patients with Parkinson's Disease/Parkinsonism and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) with troublesome sialorrhea.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the antisialagogues (anti-salivary agents), Atropine and Glycopyrrolate, are effective in reducing hypersalivation when sedating patients with Ketamine for procedural sedation in the emergency department or abscess clinic. The investigators will measure salivary flow rate by collecting oral secretions by oral suctioning over a 30 minute time period starting with the administration of Ketamine. The investigators hypothesize that patients who receive either atropine or glycopyrrolate will have fewer oral secretions than patients who receive placebo.
To evaluate the single-dose pharmacokinetics of atropine gel formulation after topical administration in the oral cavity of healthy adults.
AZUR Pharma has received several reports from practicing psychiatrists prescribing FazaClo showing that FazaClo patients start losing body weight instead of keep gaining it, after being switched from other clozapine products or other atypical antipsychotics treatments. Another important clinical observation reported by doctors is a considerable reduction in hypersalivation when FazaClo administration is compared to other antipsychotic treatments. Based on the findings described above, and on the real need for effective and safer treatments for schizophrenia, AZUR Pharma has decided to design and conduct an observational study in a large number of patients taking FazaClo to prove the received clinical reports from physicians. Better understanding and evaluation of these beneficial findings are necessary to provide physicians information for improved treatment decision.
This is an open-label clinical research study of an oral glycopyrrolate liquid for the treatment of chronic moderate to severe drooling in patients with cerebral palsy or other neurological conditions. Patients participating in the study will receive oral glycopyrrolate liquid (1 mg/5 ml) three times a day (TID) for study duration of 24 weeks. After a washout, screening, and 2-day baseline period, patients will be enrolled in a 4-week dose titration period. Glycopyrrolate liquid doses will be titrated using dose levels in the Dose Titration Schedule. Titration will begin at 0.02 mg/kg per dose TID and sequentially increased in 0.02 mg/kg per dose increments TID every 5-7 days during the first four weeks until optimal individualized response is obtained for each patient or a maximum dose of 0.1 mg/kg TID is reached, not exceeding 3 mg TID or Dose-level 5 in the Dose Titration Schedule, whichever is lesser. Optimal dose for each patient is the dose at which he/she is receiving the maximum benefit from the study drug (greatest improvement in drooling) while experiencing minimum side effects. All patients will receive close attention by study staff throughout the study.
