NCT01946880
This trial seeks to describe the effect of withdrawal from mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) on risk of clinically significant disease reactivation in quiescent SLE patients who have been on long-term MMF therapy.
NCT03599388
This pilot study will test acceptability and feasibility of a sleep extension intervention in community dwelling, short sleeping, racially/ethnically diverse middle aged adults with Metabolic Syndrome (METs). Baseline sleep habits will be assessed and used to guide individualized strategies to extend sleep. A 1-group pre-test, post-test study design will test the efficacy of this 18 week study (2 weeks of baseline data collection, 1 week of study intervention planning, 12 weeks of sleep intervention planning, 12 weeks of sleep intervention delivery, final follow up 3 weeks after last day of the 12 week intervention) on sleep duration, MetS factors (waist circumference, blood pressure, fasting glucose, trigycerides, HDL-c), MetS risk behaviors (poor affective well-being, fatigue) and self regulation. Socio-ecological barriers and facilitators to the intervention will be identified using a quantitative and qualitative approach.
NCT02349061
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ustekinumab as measured by a reduction in disease activity for subjects with active Active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE - chronic disorder of connective tissue in which there can be skin rash, arthritis, kidney problems, and anemia, among other problems).
NCT02066311
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the body's immune system attacks different parts of the body. SLE is characterized by inflammation that leads to tissue damage in different organ systems. Any organ system may be involved, including the skin, the joints, the kidneys, the nervous system, the heart, the lungs, and the blood. The exact cause of SLE is not known. Patients with SLE often have elevated levels of anti-double stranded DNA antibodies. These levels are often associated with disease flares and disease severity. These antibodies can bind to tissue leading to organ damage. Preventing these antibodies from binding to their targets may help decrease disease activity. Protease inhibitors are medications that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the treatment of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). Nelfinavir (also called viracept) is one of these protease inhibitors. Separate from their anti-viral effects, protease inhibitors have been found to decrease inflammation. These medications have been shown to interfere with binding of anti-double stranded DNA antibodies to their targets and may decrease inflammation in SLE. This research study tests whether the protease inhibitor, nelfinavir, will decrease anti-double stranded DNA antibody binding and decrease disease activity.
NCT04257825
A dual arm interventional study in which chliipad and ooler sleep system users voluntarily opt out of using their device for 2 out of 4 weeks. Assessments of sleep via self report and Oura Ring sleep quality and duration.
NCT03426384
The first phase of this pilot study will assess changes in quality of life at the end of a 16-week Mymee program in patients with moderate to severe SLE. The second phase will assess changes in healthcare utilization and cost over a one year period after program end.
NCT00137969
This is a Phase II/III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rituximab compared with placebo when combined with a single stable background immunosuppressive medication in subjects with moderate to severe systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The primary efficacy endpoint of the trial will be evaluated at 52 weeks.
NCT02725515
The purpose of this study is to determine the ability of XmAb5871 to maintain Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) disease activity improvement achieved by a brief course of disease-suppressing steroid therapy
NCT02779543
This study seeks to validate three new commercial sleep monitoring devices: Fitbit, Jawbone UP, and Microsoft Band by comparison against concurrent polysomnography (PSG), which is considered the gold standard for sleep assessment. This research is being done because if proven to accurately analyze sleep,these devices may make conducting in-home sleep studies easier and more affordable in the future.
NCT00859950
Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder characterized by temporary stops in breathing during sleep and has been associated with the development of cardiovascular disease. This research will investigate one potential mechanism leading to the development of cardiovascular disorder, specifically, the blockage of blood vessels called "vascular occlusion", in subjects with sleep apnea. A group of healthy controls will be used for comparison. All subjects will undergo clinical evaluation followed by an overnight sleep study and a morning blood draw. Subjects with sleep apnea will be treated according to standard clinical management and followed under the research protocol for one month. At the end of one month, a repeat blood draw will be performed on the sleep apnea subjects for comparative analysis. If a control subject is found to have any abnormality during this research study, he or she will be referred for further clinical evaluation.
NCT00594022
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a small electrical current to the vestibular nerve (balance organ) will decrease the time it take for participants to fall asleep.
NCT01092845
PF-04457845 has been shown to temporarily decrease the dream (REM) period of sleep in rats, which suggests that PF-04457845 is active in rat's brains. This study is designed to see whether this is also the case in man.
NCT01597492
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of belimumab on immune response to pneumococcal vaccine in subjects with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).
NCT03037203
This study is a 4-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending dose, 4-period crossover study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and PK of JZP-110 (75, 150, and 300 mg) in the treatment of excessive sleepiness in adult subjects with idiopathic PD.
NCT01621802
The purpose of this study is to support licensure of GSK Biologicals' MMR vaccine (Priorix®) in the US by generating immunogenicity and safety data in contrast to the US standard of care, Merck's MMR vaccine (M-M-R®II), when given as a second dose to children four to six years of age.
NCT03613558
The purpose of this study is to assess whether intravenous peri-operative Dexmedetomidine reduces opioid requirements and or improves pain control after Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
NCT02119156
This study will assess the effect of a 24-week withdrawal followed by a 28-week reintroduction of belimumab 10 mg/kg plus standard of care medications in subjects with stable low systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease activity. Rebound phenomenon will be assessed for subjects who have permanently withdrawn from further belimumab treatment.
NCT02041091
