Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative Study Clinical Trial
Dabigatran compared with warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation and previous transient ischaemic attack or stroke: a subgroup analysis of the RE-LY trial.
In the Randomised Evaluation of Long-Term Anticoagulation Therapy (RE-LY) trial, dabigatran reduced occurrence of both stroke and haemorrhage compared with warfarin in patients who had atrial fibrillation and were at increased risk of stroke. We aimed to assess the effects of dabigatran compared with warfarin in the subgroup of patients with previous stroke or transient ischaemic attack. ⋯ Boehringer Ingelheim.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Gene delivery of AAV2-neurturin for Parkinson's disease: a double-blind, randomised, controlled trial.
In an open-label phase 1 trial, gene delivery of the trophic factor neurturin via an adeno-associated type-2 vector (AAV2) was well tolerated and seemed to improve motor function in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease. We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of AAV2-neurturin in a double-blind, phase 2 randomised trial. ⋯ Ceregene and Michael J Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.
