NCT00014144
RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as ZD 1839 may interfere with the growth of the tumor cells and slow the growth of cancer of the urinary tract. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ZD 1839 in treating patients who have advanced cancer of the urinary tract.
NCT01679249
An understanding of fluid changes that occur during hemodialysis (HD) with ultrafiltration (UF) is essential for determining the efficacy of HD, as well as for reducing complications related to hypovolemia or, conversely, chronic volume overload.
NCT00033904
Determine whether patients receiving adjuvant HSPPC-96 treatment after surgically resected, locally advanced renal cell carcinoma have improved recurrence-free survival as compared to subjects with no adjuvant treatment.
NCT00863707
This study is intended to assess the safety and tolerance of regadenoson in subjects with renal impairment.
NCT00694525
21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) is an inherited disorder that results from a mutation on the CYP21A2 gene. It affects the adrenal glands and is the most common cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). 21-OHD CAH causes the body to produce an insufficient amount of cortisol and an excess of androgen, the type of hormone that produces male characteristics. The primary treatment for 21-OHD CAH, glucocorticoid replacement therapy, has been shown to cause bone loss. However, the elevated hormone levels caused by 21-OHD CAH may increase production of the protein osteoprotegerin (OPG), which in turn may protect against bone loss. This study will compare bone density and OPG levels in women who have 21-OHD CAH and have undergone a lifetime of glucocorticoid replacement therapy to that in women who have neither of these criteria. In doing so, the study will aim to determine the relationship between OPG and bone loss.
NCT00686751
The purpose of this study to examine whether vitamin D can reduce the activation of the immune system during dialysis. When activated, the immune cells release certain substances, called cytokines, which can be measured from small blood samples. We want to study to what degree the immune system is activated during a regular dialysis treatment and whether the time point of vitamin D administration, either right before the start or right at the end of a dialysis treatment, has an impact on the activation of the immune system.
NCT00417677
This study is being conducted to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and efficacy of the combined treatment of Temsirolimus and Sunitinib for the treatment of Advanced Kidney Cancer
NCT00977080
Evaluates the effectiveness of on-label Paricalcitol versus Cinacalcet with Low-Dose Vitamin D.
NCT00298168
Selectins have been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced kidney injury and resultant delayed graft function (DGF). PSGL-1 is a ligand for P-, E-, and L-selectin. It has been reported that YSPSL (rPSGL-Ig) blocks P-selectin and, to a lesser degree, E- and L-selectin. Both sPSGL-1 and YSPSL (rPSGL-Ig) have been shown in animal models to reduce both cytokines and tissue damage associated with ischemia reperfusion and to improve renal function post-transplant. Therefore, the current phase I/II clinical study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of YSPSL (rPSGL-Ig) in preventing DGF in patients undergoing cadaveric kidney transplants and to determine a dose for future pivotal studies.
NCT01548716
Hypothesis: 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels in non-itching hemodialysis (HD) patients will be higher than those in HD patients with itching 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels will be measured in non-itching hemodialysis patients and compared to levels previously measured in a previous study of 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels of patients complaining of itching.
NCT00150020
The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of EC-MPS in maintenance renal transplant patients who experience gastrointestinal (GI) intolerance due to adverse events associated with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and were converted to EC-MPS.
NCT00782639
The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) following the administration of iopamidol-370 (Iopamiro-370) and iodixanol-320 (Visipaque 320) in patients with moderate-to-severe chronic kidney disease and diabetes mellitus undergoing cardiac angiography.
NCT00628680
The purpose of this study is to determine if AAT-023 (Zuragen) solution is superior to Heparin in preventing Catheter Related Blood Stream Infections for End Stage Renal Disease patients.
NCT00486538
This study is designed to determine the clinical efficacy and toxicity of ABT 869 in the treatment of subjects with advanced renal cell carcinoma who have previously received treatment with sunitinib.
NCT01488721
The purpose of this study is to assess the agreement of clinical performance between the proposed NeoPlex 4 assay and NeoPlex System and the comparator devices in clinical use in newborn screening programs for detection of T4, TSH, 17-OHP and IRT.
NCT00554359
This is a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, dose escalation, safety and pharmacokinetic study. The study will be conducted in approximately 8-10 centers in the United States and Switzerland. Up to 32 patients who have undergone major cardiovascular surgery will participate. Patients will receive a single IV injection of I5NP or placebo following cardiovascular surgery. I5NP will be administered 4 hours (+/- 30 minutes) following removal of the cardiopulmonary bypass machine (CBM). The duration of the study is approximately 44 days, inclusive of a 14 day screening period. Patients will be contacted by phone at 6 and 12 months for follow-up questions. Patient visits are screening, day of surgery, hospital in-patient Days 1, 2, 3 and Day 7 or hospital discharge. Safety follow-up will continue until 30 days post-surgery. 2 phone calls will be made at 6 and 12 months after date of surgery.
NCT00089648
The purpose of this study is to test whether sunitinib (SU011248) has activity and is safe in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) who have failed prior therapy with bevacizumab (Avastin) -based treatment.
