NCT00866866
Chronic sinonasal symptoms (CSNS), such as coughing, throat clearing, nasal obstruction, crusting, dryness and discharge are extremely common in the general population. Although the physical symptoms are readily apparent, the psychosocial impact is often overlooked. Depression, anxiety, fear of social interaction, impaired personal relationships and decreased performance at work have all been associated with CSNS, often leading to multiple, frequent visits to the patient's primary care physician. A variety of clinical studies have shown that health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is significantly impaired in people with CSNS, with depressive symptoms being particularly common. CSNS may be due, in part, to tenacious nasal and paranasal secretions. It is therefore conceivable that a mucolytic may thin these secretions and improve mucociliary clearance, thereby reducing CSNS. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is the most widely used mucolytic agent, particularly in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), and has been documented as the most effective of the mucokinetic agents. Our group wishes to examine the use of NAC as a treatment for CSNS by testing the hypothesis that oral NAC reduces symptoms of CSNS compared to placebo.
NCT00866411
The purpose of this double-blind randomized control research study is to determine if CES given in a group setting for soldiers experiencing irritability is effective to reduce the symptom of irritability.
NCT00299442
This project will introduce a self-help parent training programme for families on National Health Service (NHS) waiting lists for child mental health services. It will examine whether access to treatment can be increased by providing an intervention that requires fewer resources and by releasing clinician time for more serious cases. This intervention will be tested in a randomised, controlled trial in which 35 subjects will receive treatment immediately and 35 will receive treatment after waiting for 10 weeks. All families will also complete questionnaires before and after the 10 week study period in order to measure changes in child behaviour, parenting, and parental mental health. Cost-effectiveness of this programme will also be analysed. Intention-to-treat analyses will be conducted.
NCT00688428
The purpose of this study is to test if fixed dose esomeprazole and ASA capsule is pharmaceutically equal to a free combination of esomeprazole capsule and ASA tablet
NCT00095108
This study is being done to see if an experimental drug called recombinant interleukin-21 (rIL-21) when given to patients with stage 4 malignant melanoma or stage 4 kidney cancer is safe and has any effect on these types of cancers.
NCT00411723
RTL1000 is a new agent that has not been previously tested in humans. It is thought that RTL may specifically control the abnormal immune response or attack against the insulation on the nerves that occurs in multiple sclerosis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possible side effects of a single intravenous dose of RTL1000 in subjects with multiple sclerosis. Some subjects will also be asked to participate in one or both of two substudies, one to test blood samples to see how the body's immune system responds after administration of RTL1000, and the other to test blood samples to see how the body absorbs and eliminates the RTL1000.
NCT00311272
Dendritic cells loaded with tumor antigens induce cytotoxic T-cells which have been proved capable of killing both melanoma and breast cancer cells. Melanoma and colorectal cancer cells express some common antigens. Hence it is possible to use melanoma lysate to load the dendritic cells with tumor antigens similar to the antigens expressed by the patients' colorectal cancer cells. The patient receives 10 vaccinations with 14 days between each. The parameters for effect are changes in tumor/metastasis size measured with computed tomography (CT), decrease in serum concentration of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), performance status measured by the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria, and Quality of Life.
NCT00718055
The purpose of this study is to determine whether MRI with manganese containing contrast agent detects more livermetastasis compared to CT scan
NCT00621556
1. To assess the effect of RG1068 at a dose of 0.2 mcg/kg intravenously (IV) on the diameter of the pancreatic duct when used during Magnetic Resonance Pancreatography 2. To demonstrate that RG1068-enhanced MRCP improves detection and characterization of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) relative to unenhanced MRCP in patients with suspected IPMN 3. To correlate findings on MRCP with histologically confirmed malignancy
NCT00353717
Basal like breast carcinoma is a Her2, estrogen receptor (ER) progesterone receptor (PR) negative breast cancer. It is notable for the high level of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression in this tumor subtype . Thus the investigators wanted to combine the use of anti EGFR therapy in the form of Erbitux (cetuximab) with the widely used weekly taxol chemotherapy for the treatment of these women. This is a small phase I/II study.
NCT00030173
Epothilone D represents one of a class of cytotoxic macrolides capable of causing mitotic arrest by stabilizing tubulin polymerization. Since microtubules are essential for mitosis, motility, secretion and proliferation, the observed antitumor effects of epothilones have been attributed to their ability to initiate cell death by inhibiting such processes. Epothilone D has demonstrated in vitro cytotoxic activity in a panel of human cell lines, equipotent to that of paclitaxel. In vivo, Epothilone D has also shown significant antitumor activity in a range of xenograft models, including paclitaxel-resistant xenografts. Epothilone D is more potent than paclitaxel in cell lines that demonstrate multiple drug resistant activity overexpressing p-glycoprotein.
NCT00594087
The purpose of this study is to determine if people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and fatigue have disrupted sleep, as was suggested in previous studies, and whether treating the disruptions of sleep improves the fatigue. Eszoplicone, a new drug FDA approved for the treatment of insomnia, will be used to control sleep disturbances in MS patients with fatigue. The study will last 7 weeks, 5 of which will involve being on medication. You will take eszopiclone or placebo (sugar pill), keep a sleep diary and wear an actigraph, a device about the size of a digital watch that monitors and records sleep activity. You will randomly be chosen to get either placebo or medication. Half the subjects will get placebo and half eszopiclone. The decision will be made by a pharmacist (who does not know you) according to a randomization table. Neither you nor the investigating physician will know whether you are on sugar pill or medication. At both the beginning and the conclusion of the study you will be asked to fill out 2 questionnaires to evaluate fatigue and depression and undergo some memory and speech tests. The testing will take about 2 hours. Actigraphy is a wrist-worn, watch like device that records activity during waking and sleeping without application of any sensors. It consists of a movement detector, so it can record movement and non-movement data for a week or two. You should wear it continuously during wakefulness and sleep as you go about routine daily activities. You should only take it off if you are going to shower, bathe or swim. A sleep log is a graph on which, for 2 to 3 weeks, you will record bedtime, approximate sleep time, times and duration of awakenings during the sleep period, final awakening time, and naps taken during the day to the best of your knowledge. You will also be asked to avoid getting pregnant. If you are a woman who may have the potential to get pregnant then a pregnancy test may be performed at the beginning of the study, before you receive the medication, at the first follow up visit and when you end the study.
