NCT00089570
The purpose of this study is to determine whether terlipressin is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) type 1 when compared to placebo.
NCT00335556
This phase II trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and/or surgery work in treating patients with high-risk kidney tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving combination chemotherapy together with radiation therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.
NCT00064753
The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to determine if lowering homocysteine levels in renal transplant recipients with a multivitamin will reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular disease outcomes.
NCT00618475
Depression is second in frequency only to hypertension as a comorbid condition for End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients. The presence of depression has been linked to lower quality of life, more medical comorbidities and shorter lifespan. This project represents the first known attempt at a standardized intervention for depression in ethnically diverse ESRD patients. The study will be conducted at the Parkside Center for Dialysis. Patients will be randomly selected for screening until 80 subjects meet entry criteria and agree to be randomized. Once subjects are screened and enrolled in the study they are randomly assigned to either a treatment or wait-list control condition. After 3 months, the intervention will be completed and both groups will be reassessed. After an additional 3 months, both groups will have received the intervention and pre and post measures for both groups will be available as well as 3 month follow-up for the 1st intervention group. The following measures will be collected: to obtain a full DSM-IV diagnosis the SCID I and SCID II will be utilized. The BDI will provide a self-report measure of depression. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), a measure designed specifically for medically ill patients, will also be administered. Additionally, the Young Schema Questionnaire, a measure which seeks to identify maladaptive (both depressive and anxious) cognitive styles, will be administered. A quality of life measure designed specifically for dialysis patients (KDQOL-SF) will also be given as a means of measuring patient's overall coping and functioning. To better understand the patient's perceptions of their health and illness the Illness Effects Questionnaire will be administered. A demographic information sheet will be completed by the subject in which personal, ethnic, and illness information is collected. Detailed information about the subject's mental health history and treatment as well as current medications will be gathered. Data from routine dialysis laboratories (hemoglobin, creatinine, albumin, Kt/V) will be extracted from the chart. The intervention will take place in individual format while the subjects are being dialyzed. The intervention will be 10 sixty minute -long weekly sessions spread over not more than 3 months. It will include both cognitive and behavioral skills focused on alleviating depressive affect and identifying maladaptive patterns of thought and behavior. This study would lay the groundwork for future clinical research by helping to develop a culturally competent clinical intervention and demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of adapting psychosocial intervention for a medically complex culturally diverse population.
NCT01693029
The purpose of this study is to show biosimilarity of HX575 epoetin alfa with the US licensed reference product Epogen®/Procrit® when applied subcutaneously. This study is intended to generate data supporting that the efficacy and safety under treatment with HX575 and Epogen®/Procrit® are comparable.
NCT02165761
To characterize the GORE® Hybrid Vascular Graft as compared to non-heparin bonded synthetic vascular grafts in terms of the prevalence and persistence of anti-platelet factor 4 / heparin antibodies (anti-PF4 / H antibodies).
NCT03043027
Percutaneous nephrostolithotomy (PCNL) is a common endoscopic procedure performed for upper urinary tract calculus disease. Despite being minimally invasive, it is associated with significant postoperative pain, often necessitating inpatient hospitalization and narcotic pain medications. Additionally, one of a number of catheters is often left protruding from the access tract for a period of time following the procedure, adding to patient discomfort. Attempts have been made to study peri-tubular or access tract analgesic installation, which have shown promise.1-2 However, no studies, to our knowledge, have examined the use of liposomal bupivacaine preparations in this regard. In this study we hope to prospectively analyze the use of liposomal bupivacaine injected to the access tract site at the time of PCNL and determine its effects on postoperative narcotic requirement and pain scores. Patients presenting for PCNL will be randomized to either the liposomal bupivacaine or usual care, which involves no injection of local anesthesia. Patients will then be followed during their inpatient stay. Total narcotic requirement (in milligrams) and pain scores (using Wong-Baker FACES rating scale) will be compared.3 Typical postoperative care and discharge criteria will not change during the course of this study.
NCT00726323
This clinical study is being conducted at multiple sites to determine the best confirmed response rate, safety, and tolerability of GSK1363089 treatment in papillary renal cell carcinoma. Papillary renal cell carcinoma may be classified into hereditary and sporadic forms; subjects with either classification will be accepted into this study.
NCT00861029
This is a Phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study to estimate the effects of daily oral dosing of 800 mg pazopanib on electrocardiographic parameters (QTc interval duration) as compared with placebo in subjects with solid tumors. Moxifloxacin, will serve as a positive control.
NCT00612924
The Phase I safety study is now complete. FDA approval has been granted to proceed to Phase II. The primary objectives of the Phase II study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Anaconda Stent Graft System in subjects presenting with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). The secondary objectives of this study are to assess additional clinical outcomes measurements associated with treatment of AAA using the Anaconda Stent Graft System
NCT00920764
The study objective is to investigate the effects of three low doses of atrasentan on urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) levels in subjects with Type 2 diabetic nephropathy. Patients with Type 2 diabetes with nephropathy must be receiving a renin-angiotensin system inhibitor, such as an Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or an Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB) for participation in this study. ACEi and ARB treatment are the standard of care for the management of proteinuria in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients.
NCT02504294
A phase 3b study for subjects receiving Epogen to compare a dosing algorithm between Hospira Epoetin and Standard of Care Epogen.
NCT00448721
This is a single-arm phase II trial of perifosine in renal cancer patients who have experienced disease progression after receiving either sorafenib or sunitinib.
NCT01340794
This phase II trial studies how well pazopanib hydrochloride works in treating patients with advanced or progressive malignant pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma. Pazopanib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
NCT00529802
The purpose of this study is to learn if PET scanning can predict the degree of tumor shrinkage with the study drug RAD001 in subjects who have advanced renal cancer.
NCT01898715
This first-in-human study is designed to establish the safety and tolerability of ATR-101 in patients with advanced adrenocortical carcinoma whose tumor has progressed on standard therapy. Information will also be collected to determine how long ATR-101 stays in the blood, and if any effect on tumor progression is seen. Biomarkers (blood and urine tests) will determine if any effects on production of steroid hormones (cortisol, aldosterone, estrogen and testosterone) are seen.
NCT01617681
