NCT02167685
The prospective observational study is to establish a registry database to evaluate the potential impact of prior treatment with CMX001 on the long-term incidence of specific events, such as outcomes, late CMV and other Double-stranded DNA virus associated events, s well as survival rates in subjects previously enrolled in selected clinical studies of CMX001. Each Registry participant will be followed for a period of approximately 3 years from their enrollment in the Registry.
NCT01756560
Anterior cruciate ligament reapair is a painful procedure. Single shot femoral and sciatic nerve block only last 12-16 hrs. Since dexamethasone prolongs brachial plexus block, using it in lower extremity blocks will prolong the analgesia to provide better outpatient pain relief after surgery at home.
NCT01558843
This multicenter, observational, study will enroll severe neurologically injured patients both prospectively and retrospectively. The aims are to identify the percent of neurocritical care patients with sodium levels ≤ 135 mEq/L, describe treatment strategies employed, determine the correlation of clinical factors (i.e. GCS, ICP) with serum sodium concentrations in patients prior to sodium altering therapy, and evaluate outcomes through evaluation of length of stay, discharge disposition, and modified Rankin score (mRS).
NCT01186692
The purpose of this study is to confirm the short-term hemodynamic effectiveness results achieved by real-world providers are equivalent to the historical control established in the IDE study.
NCT01180036
The primary outcome of this study is to determine whether or not the B cell targeting with Rituximab is non-inferior or more effective than Cyclosporine in inducing long term remission of proteinuria.
NCT01363518
The subject's broken humerus (arm) is suitable for treatment with a fracture brace or operative fixation with plate and screws. Both of these types of treatments are often used by doctors to fix broken bones. If the subject agrees to participate in this study, the subject will be assigned by the treating surgeon to one of the following groups: Group B: Non-operative treatment with a fracture brace Group P: a plate \& screws - a metal device placed on top of the bone. The investigators will collect information about the subject's arm fracture as it is treated with examinations and X-rays. X-rays will be obtained often in the first several months, depending on how the fracture is healing. This is determined by the doctor and will not be determined by the subject's participation in this research study. Both treatments are routinely used and this study hopes to provide information regarding each type of treatment on the subject's functional outcome. A subject's treatment will not be affected whether they choose to participate in this research study or not. The treatment of these subjects is no different because of this study. The treating surgeon will discuss with the patient their preferred treatment for the isolated humeral shaft fracture. If they meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria, they will be approached for participation in one of two treatment groups depending on a previous decision by the patient and the treating surgeon. Hypotheses: 1. Patients with an isolated humeral shaft fracture that are plated will have a more rapid return to ADL's, work and full functional capacity than patients treated conservatively. 2. Patients treated with plate technique will have a more rapid improvement in functional outcome scores, decreased pain scores and patient satisfaction than those managed conservatively. 3. Complication rates of infection and iatrogenic neurologic injury will be higher in patients treated operatively. 4. Nonunion and malunion will be higher in patients managed conservatively.
NCT02661633
This study (Part 2) is designed to build a database including EEG, neurocognitive performance, clinical symptoms, history and other relevant data, which will be used to derive a multimodal EEG based algorithm for the identification of concussion and tracking of recovery. In addition, neuroimaging will be conducted at time of injury and following Return to Play (RTP).
NCT02957461
This study is Part 1 of data collection from 18-25 years old subject population for validation of previously derived algorithms. This data will be combined with that collected under NCT03671083 (Part 2 with subject age range 13-25 years) for the final analyses of validation of the algorithms.
NCT02477943
This study (Part 1) is designed to build a database including EEG, neurocognitive performance, clinical symptoms, history and other relevant data, which will be used to derive a multimodal EEG based algorithm for the identification of concussion and tracking of recovery. In addition, neuroimaging will be conducted at time of injury and following Return to Play (RTP).
NCT01544491
The purpose of this study is to determine if everolimus combined with reduced exposure CNI (TAC) is efficacious and safe and will support corticosteroid elimination compared to a standard exposure CNI (TAC) + MMF + steroid regimen after paediatric kidney transplantation. An additional purpose of the study is to assess the effect of the combination of EVR and reduced exposure CNI (TAC) on renal function. This study is part of the requirements of the Paediatric Investigational Plan approved by Paediatric Committee at the European Medicines Agency (PDCO/EMA) on September 10, 2010, and is intended to support the indication of everolimus in the prevention of acute rejection in paediatric recipients of a renal transplant.
NCT02008877
Phase 1: To assess the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/ recommended dose of ganetespib when administered in combination with sirolimus in patients with refractory or relapsed sarcomas including unresectable or metastatic sporadic or neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) associated MPNST. Phase I enrollment has been closed. Phase 2: To determine the clinical benefit of ganetespib in combination with sirolimus for patients with unresectable or metastatic sporadic or NF1 associated MPNST.
NCT02488044
A Phase 1/2 Open-label Study in Patients with Arginase I Deficiency to Investigate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Intravenous AEB1102. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of IV administration of AEB1102 for the treatment of pediatric and adult patients with Arginase I deficiency and hyperargininemia. This study will be conducted in 2 parts: Part 1 (Single Ascending Dose Escalation) and Part 2 (Repeated Dosing). Each part will be preceded by a baseline assessment of arginine levels. All patients who participate in Part 1 may continue AEB1102 dosing in Part 2 if they qualify for continued dosing. A data safety monitoring board (DSMB) will provide independent review of study safety data and recommend whether the sponsor should continue the study as planned, modify the study protocol, or discontinue the study.
NCT02993783
The purpose of this study is to assess the initial activity, tolerability, safety and to identify a recommended dose and regimen of vedolizumab intravenous (IV) administered for treatment of steroid-refractory acute intestinal GvHD in participants who have undergone allo-HSCT.

This is a multi-cohort, open label, Phase II study with Dabrafenib (GSK2118436) and Trametinib (GSK1120212) combination therapy in subject with BRAF mutation-positive melanoma that has metastasized to the brain. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of 4 cohorts. Cohorts will consist of; V600 E, D, K, R mutations, metastases to the brain, symptomatic and asymptomatic, with or without prior local (brain) therapy, with or without prior local (brain) therapy, and range of ECOG scores from 0-2.
NCT02019602

NCT02460653
1. To determine the lowest nasal cannula flow rate in which upper airway deadspace is reduced. Hypothesis - The lowest flow rate of high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) will reduce upper airway (extrathoracic) deadspace and improve respiratory efficiency by reducing transcutaneous CO2 and/or lower respiratory rate. 2. To determine the lowest nasal cannula flow rate in which regional distribution (as defined by EIT) of ventilation changes. Hypothesis - Moderate to high flow rates will create positive pressure that leads to improved regional distribution of ventilation.
