The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that once daily tadalafil administered orally for 48 weeks lessens the decline in ambulatory ability as measured by the 6MWD compared to placebo in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Two…
Primary Objective: To examine how protein supplemented after exercise and before each night of sleep augments the resistance type exercise training-induced changes in quadriceps muscle size (CSA) in healthy elderly men. Secondary Objective:…
The primary objective is to test the hypothesis that a protein-rich nutritional supplement (containing 45 g of dietary protein) prior to surgery acutely increases skeletal muscle and bone protein synthesis rates in older patients undergoing a hip…
In the current study we want to further explore the predictability of pre-treatment pain variability on the probability to experience pain relief. Knowledge on the understanding of individual differences in analgesic properties of a drug is of…
The overall objective is to investigate the efficacy of resveratrol in modulating metabolism and CVD risk profile in patients with COPD. The primary objective is to investigate the effect of resveratrol on CRP as clinical marker of low grade…
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a single bout of NMES on muscle protein synthesis rates in healthy elderly males.
The primary objective of this proof of principle study is to determine the effect of levosimendan on the strength and endurance of the diaphragm in healthy subjects. The secondary objective is to gain insight in the neural activation and efficiency…
Primary ObjectivesThe primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the analgesic effect size over 12 weeks of several doses and dosage regimens of JNJ-42160443 compared with placebo in subjects with moderate to severe, chronic, low back pain (…
The main objective of this study is to examine the effects of resistance type exercise training combined with nutritional support on body composition and muscle characteristics in healthy elderly men and women.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of a meal-like amount of dietary protein prior to sleep on postprandial muscle protein synthesis in healthy young and elderly men, following exercise, during the night. Furthermore, as…
To define the amount of dietary protein required to optimally stimulate post-exercise muscle protein synthesis in the older population.To assess whether co-ingesting 1.5 g of free leucine (contained within 15 g dairy protein) along with 15 g protein…
The primary aim of this study is to determine the effect of nandrolone decanoate (ND) injection and leucine supplementation on muscle mass loss during short-term immobilisation in healthy, young people. In addition, we aim to study the underlying…
Main Objective:To evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of BYM338 in the treatment of sIBM and to further evaluate the effect of three BYM338dose regimens against placebo in increasing the distance traveled as measured by the 6 Minute…
Overall Objective: To define the properties of whey, casein, milk protein, as well as soy protein with and without additional leucine to augment post-exercise muscle protein synthesis when co-ingested with a carbohydrate containing recovery drink.…
(1) To phenotype fibromyalgia patients in terms of endogenous modulation of pain, central sensitization/facilitation, the presence of a neuropathic pain component and small fiber neuropathy;(2) To assess the effect of a three-month treatment with…
This study is not intended to improve your health, but is necessary for the further development of RO7034067 .The study will be performed in 3 parts, Parts 1, 2 and 3. This document only refers to Part 1/2/3 of the study . Part 1:A single dose will…
This aim of this study is to evaluate the secondary outcome measures including three to four year re-injury data.
To define a dose-response relationship after intrinsically labeled milk protein ingestion on myofibrillar and mitochondrial muscle protein synthesis after a single bout of endurance exercise.
Primary: to demonstrate that at least one dose regimen of BYM338 in sporadic inclusion body myositis patients will increase the distance traveled as measured by change from baseline at Week 52 of the 6 minute walking distance test relative to…
