NCT00988247
Subjects with perennial allergic rhinitis will be randomized to 320 mcg of beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) using a hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) propellant or placebo as a nasal aerosol. The subjects will be followed for safety and efficacy for a period of 30 or 52 weeks. BDP HFA is a steroid which is currently FDA approved for the treatment of asthma. BDP-HFA should be safe and effective as a "dry" nasal aerosol which may be preferred by some patients.
NCT02670044
The primary objective for this study is to assess the safety and tolerability as well as preliminary efficacy of venetoclax in combination with cobimetinib, and venetoclax in combination with idasanutlin in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R) AML who are not eligible for cytotoxic therapy.
NCT03359421
Traumatic injury is the leading cause of pediatric death in the United States for those forty-four years of age and younger. Pediatric trauma patients generally have reduced mortality when treated at pediatric trauma centers rather than at adult centers or non-tertiary care facilities. However, nearly half the US pediatric population lives over fifty miles from a Level I or II Trauma Center. While air ambulances are readily available in many jurisdictions, few guidelines and little evidence dictate their appropriate use, especially with regard to pediatric trauma. Previous research is mixed regarding mortality benefit from helicopter Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in injured children. Previous attempts to develop appropriate field triage criteria have failed due to poor sensitivity and specificity for identifying the critically injured child. The current high rate of overtriage is particularly concerning in today's cost-conscious medical community. This research study aims to categorize pre-hospital pediatric trauma in North Carolina, to determine what benefits helicopter EMS provides in the North Carolina trauma system, and to formulate an enhanced screening tool for pre-hospital use to help determine which patients are suitable candidates for helicopter EMS transport.
NCT02315469
This research trial studies comprehensive patient questionnaires in predicting complications in older patients with gynecologic cancer undergoing surgery. Comprehensive patient questionnaires completed before surgery may help identify complications, such as the need for assistance in taking medications, decreased mobility, decreased social activity, and falls, and may improve outcomes for older patients with gynecologic cancer.
NCT03938857
Multicenter, double blind randomized controlled trial of fentanyl vs. fentanyl + dexmedetomidine as the initial regimen for maintenance of sedation in mechanically-ventilated, critically ill children. This trial will evaluate the opioid-sparing effect of dexmedetomidine when administered with fentanyl to mechanically ventilated, critically ill children. Study drug or placebo will be administered with fentanyl, which will be titrated to achieve sedation scores consistent with response to light touch. Plasma samples and bedside assessments for pain, sedation, and delirium will be collected.
NCT00369317
This phase III trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy works in treating young patients with Down syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells.
NCT02304991
Primary Objective: To determine if 36 months of peanut SLIT as an early intervention in subjects ages 1 to 4 years induces clinical desensitization. The primary outcome of this objective will be a statistically significant difference in challenge scores between the treatment group versus the placebo group during DBPCFC (Double blind placebo controlled food challenge) performed after 36 months of peanut SLIT (desensitization). Challenge scores are measured by the amount of peanut protein participants are able to ingest successfully without symptoms of an allergic reaction. \[Time Frame: Baseline, 36 months\] Secondary Objectives: A secondary outcome of this objective will be a statistically significant difference in the challenge score of the treatment group versus the placebo group during the DBPCFC performed 3 months after discontinuing therapy (tolerance). To examine the change in immune parameters associated with peanut SLIT and the development of clinical tolerance. Through this objective, the investigators will seek to understand the molecular processes by which SLIT affects the immune system through evaluation of immune mechanisms in relationship to clinical findings of desensitization and tolerance. The investigators will delineate the impact of peanut SLIT on the subsequent cellular and humoral responses to peanut protein. \[Time Frame: Baseline, 39 months\]
NCT04272671
Purpose: The proposed study will implement and evaluate the effect of an opioid and benzodiazepine (BZD) de-prescribing intervention on falls risk in older adults. Participants: Outpatient clinics with older adult patients, healthcare providers, older adult patients Procedures (methods): In this proposed study, there will be 10 primary care clinics randomly assigned to the intervention arm and 10 primary care clinics randomly assigned to the control arm. In the first phase of this study, patient and provider focus groups will be used to inform the development of the intervention which will be tested during the active trial phase. The intervention has the following components: 1) alerts given to providers to identify patients taking opioids or benzodiazepines (BZD) and therefore at risk for falls; 2) educational materials to inform providers on best practices for de-prescribing opioids and BZDs in patients at risk; and 3) recommendations on de-prescribing provided by a consultant pharmacist. Impact of the intervention will be evaluated using pre-post surveys evaluating changes in providers' knowledge, confidence, and skills as well as information from the electronic health record (EHR) to evaluate impact of the intervention on de-prescribing opioids and BZDs.
NCT03797261
This dose-escalation study evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of venetoclax in combination with AMG 176 in participants with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and participants with Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL)/diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This study will include a dose escalation phase to identify the maximum tolerated dose/recommended phase 2 dose (MTD/RPTD) of venetoclax plus AMG 176 as well as a dose expansion phase to confirm safety, explore efficacy, and confirm the suitability of the preliminary RPTD.
NCT01597778
Hematopoietic cell transplants (HCT)are one treatment option for people with leukemia or lymphoma. Family members,unrelated donors or banked umbilical cordblood units with similar tissue type can be used for HCT. This study will compare the effectiveness of two new types of bone marrow transplants in people with leukemia or lymphoma: one that uses bone marrow donated from family members with only partially matched bone marrow; and, one that uses two partially matched cord blood units.
NCT03652077
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of INCAGN02390 in participants with select advanced malignancies.
NCT03761069
This is an open-label, non-randomized, Phase 1b study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) profiles, and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity of PTC299 and the metabolite, O-desmethyl PTC299, in participants with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have exhausted standard available therapies known to provide clinical benefit. The study is designed as a series of cohort-based dose escalations. For each cohort, a minimum of 3 evaluable participants with PK and safety data will be assessed. Additional participants will be recruited if additional PK data are needed to assess mean exposure based on the observed variability.
NCT00339040
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of and immune response to a new human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine in HIV (Human immunodeficiency virus) infected children between the ages of 7 and 12 years.
NCT00730639
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of MDX-1106 in patients with certain types of cancer. Another purpose is to determine how MDX-1106 is absorbed and distributed within the body, and how it's eventually eliminated.
NCT00372073
A phase 2 study to evaluate efficacy of oral seliciclib in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
NCT01404949
The purpose of this study is to find what effects, good and/or bad, treatment with two drugs has on leukemia. The first medicine is tretinoin (also called all-trans retinoic acid, ATRA, or Vesanoid). It is an approved medicine that causes the leukemia cells in APL to mature. It is related to vitamin A. The second is arsenic trioxide (Trisenox). It is an approved medicine for APL that comes back after earlier treatment. APL is most often treated with tretinoin and standard chemotherapy drugs. These chemotherapy drugs can cause infection and bleeding. They can also damage the heart and normal bone marrow cells. This can lead to a second leukemia years later. In this study, the investigators are using tretinoin and arsenic trioxide together. Both drugs work to treat APL. They have been used together in only a limited number of people. The investigators want to use these drugs together to reduce the amount of standard chemotherapy and decrease side effects. The patient will receive standard chemotherapy with a drug called idarubicin only if they have a higher chance of the leukemia coming back or a higher risk of side effects.
NCT00375219
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous administration of omacetaxine mepesuccinate (HHT) in achieving a clinical response in CML patients in chronic, accelerated, or blast phase who have failed prior imatinib therapy and have the T315I kinase domain gene mutation.
NCT02639910
This is a two-cohort, multicenter, open-label study of tafasitamab (MOR208) combined with idelalisib or venetoclax in adult patients with R/R CLL or R/R SLL pretreated with a BTK inhibitor (e.g., ibrutinib) as single agent or as part of combination therapy. Patients completing the study treatment are invited to participate in an optional biomarker sub-study.
NCT00960297
The rationale for this multicenter, phase II trial is to examine the impact of carboplatin/paclitaxel with bevacizumab in the preoperative treatment of patients with stage IB (\> 4.0 cm), II, and select stage III NSCLC. If this novel regimen proves to be safe and active in this setting, this would provide rationale for further investigation in a larger, prospective, randomized setting.
NCT02545283
This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study designed to compare overall survival in participants with relapsed or refractory AML treated with idasanutlin in combination with cytarabine versus participants treated with placebo and cytarabine. Participants will receive induction treatment with idasanutlin/placebo and cytarabine (Cycle 1). Responding participants may continue to receive a maximum of further two cycles of consolidation (Cycle 2 and Cycle 3). Complete remission (CR), CR with incomplete platelet count recovery (CRp), overall remission rate (ORR), event-free survival (EFS) and percentage of participants with an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) will also be compared between treatment arms. This study will include participants with and without TP53 wild type (TP53 WT) mutations.
