NCT01173497
The purpose of the study is to investigate the response rate for triple negative breast cancer patients with brain metastasis when INIPARIB is used in combination with irinotecan. Based on data generated by BiPar/Sanofi, it is concluded that iniparib does not possess characteristics typical of the PARP inhibitor class. The exact mechanism has not yet been fully elucidated, however based on experiments on tumor cells performed in the laboratory, iniparib is a novel investigational anti-cancer agent that induces gamma-H2AX (a marker of DNA damage) in tumor cell lines, induces cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase in tumor cell lines, and potentiates the cell cycle effects of DNA damaging modalities in tumor cell lines. Investigations into potential targets of iniparib and its metabolites are ongoing.
NCT00326664
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of AZD2171 in treating young patients with recurrent, progressive, or refractory primary CNS tumors. AZD2171 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.

NCT00792103
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety of long-term treatment with NP101 as assessed by: * Subject self-examination skin irritation scores * Adverse events * Changes in vital signs and ECG parameters The secondary objective is to evaluate the long term efficacy of NP101 as assessed by: * Headache pain free at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 * Headache pain relief at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 * Nausea free at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 * Phonophobia free at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 * Photophobia free at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 * Migraine free at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 This study will use an open-label design to assess the long term safety of NP101 (sumatriptan iontophoretic transdermal patch). Subjects who continue to be in good health (use of a triptan or use of an NP101 patch is not contraindicated) and received treatment (patch activation) with the study patch for a qualifying migraine under study NP101-007 will be considered eligible for enrollment into the open-label study. Subjects will be expected to remain in the study for up to 12 months.
NCT00724815
This study was a randomized, parallel group, double-blind, placebo controlled design to compare the efficacy and tolerability of NP101 to a placebo iontophoretic transdermal patch. The primary objective of this study was to assess the proportion of subjects who were headache pain free at two hours after patch activation. Key secondary objectives included: 1. The proportion of subjects who were nausea free at two hours after patch activation. 2. The proportion of subjects who were photophobia free at two hours after patch activation. 3. The proportion of subjects who were phonophobia free at two hours after patch activation.
NCT01343667
The objective of this study is to provide an ongoing evaluation of clinical outcomes associated with the GORE Flow Reversal System and the GORE Embolic Filter when used for embolic protection during carotid artery stenting.
NCT02228850
The purpose of this study is to evaluate pharmacodynamics (PD) in adult subjects with a diagnosis of Raynaud's Phenomenon secondary to Systemic Sclerosis (SSc).
NCT00023530
The purpose of this network is to accelerate research in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation by comparing novel therapies to existing ones.
NCT00806546
This study will use an open-label design to evaluate the safety of NP101. Adult subjects who meet the enrollment criteria will be treated with NP101 (sumatriptan succinate iontophoretic transdermal patch) for acute migraine attacks over a 12 month period.
NCT01390545
This is a multi-national, multi-centre, placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, 4-arm parallel group trial, comparing three different dose levels (80 mg, 160 mg and 320 mg) of veltuzumab to placebo, administered weekly (days 1, 8, 15 and 22) by subcutaneous (sc) injection to subjects with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (cumulative veltuzumab doses 320 mg, 640 mg, and 1280 mg, respectively). All subjects will be on continued stable co-medication with methotrexate (MTX).
NCT01214694
The purpose of this study is to test two on-line interventions for families of young children who have experienced moderate or severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). This project builds upon the investigators' previous research by modifying the online intervention content to address the needs of young children with TBI. The goal of this project is to develop an intervention that will encourage positive parenting behaviors, improve child behaviors, and reduce parent distress and burden following TBI. The investigators hypothesize that the intervention groups will exhibit more effective parenting skills as well as better child functioning and lower levels of parental distress at follow-up than will the active comparison group.
NCT01042899

NCT00609180
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute lung injury (ALI) are medical conditions that occur when there is severe inflammation and increased fluids in both lungs, making it difficult for the lungs to function properly. Hospital treatment for a person with ALI/ARDS often includes the use of a breathing machine, or ventilator, until the person is able to breathe without assistance. Initiating proper nutrition through a feeding tube early in a person's hospital stay may help to improve recovery, but the optimal timing, composition, and amount of feeding treatments are unknown. This study will evaluate whether early or delayed full-calorie feeding through a feeding tube is more effective in reducing recovery time and increasing survival rates in people with ALI/ARDS. The study will also determine whether supplementing the feedings with omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants benefits people with ALI/ARDS.
NCT00507663
This study proposes a prospective randomized study of elders undergoing elective major abdominal surgery to assess recovery following a unique anesthetic regimen incorporating a adrenergic receptor antagonist. The purposes of this study are to: 1. to determine if using atenolol, a beta-blocker drug commonly used to treat high blood pressure and heart disease, as part of your anesthetic regimen will decrease complications that sometimes occur in elderly patients who are undergoing surgery and being given anesthesia. 2. to see if it improves or quickens your recovery from anesthesia and surgery. 3. to help investigators design better ways to administer anesthesia during surgery, especially in elderly patients, so that the complications and the time to recover from surgery and anesthesia can be decreased.
