NCT01120275
This phase II trial is studying how well gamma-secretase/Notch signalling pathway inhibitor RO4929097 works in treating patients with stage IV melanoma. Gamma-secretase/Notch signalling pathway inhibitor RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

A fellow eye controlled study of HUCNS-SC sub-retinal transplantation in subjects with bilateral GA AMD. All subjects will be assigned to HUCNS-SC transplantation.
NCT01095432
The purpose of this study is to study samples of rectal mucosa (the moist lining of the rectum) using a new light scattering technology, called partial wave spectroscopy (PWS) in patients who will undergo a standard of care colonoscopy or a flexible sigmoidoscopy and have a history of ulcerative colitis (UC).
NCT00488631
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of golimumab administered subcutaneously (under the skin) injections in maintenance therapy.
NCT00323518
CG53135-05 (velafermin), a recombinant human fibroblast growth factor-20 (rhFGF-20) protein, is under investigation for the prevention of oral mucositis. Oral mucositis is a commonly occurring side effect of high-dose chemotherapy in patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant. The objective of this Phase II trial is to confirm the safety and efficacy of CG53135-05 (velafermin) when administered as a single dose to patients at risk for developing oral mucositis.
NCT01433354
The purpose of this study is to generate long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy data for AFQ056 in eligible adolescent patients with FXS who have participated in the CAFQ056B2214 study, the PK study CAFQ056B2131, or another study of AFQ056 which included FXS patients below 18 years of age provided the patient is at least 12 years of age at the time of entry into the current study.
NCT01194414
This randomized, double-blind, parallel group study compares the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous (sc) versus intravenous (iv) administration of tocilizumab in participants with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis. Participants were randomized to receive either tocilizumab 162 mg sc weekly plus iv placebo every 4 weeks, or tocilizumab 8 mg/kg iv every 4 weeks plus sc placebo weekly during the double-blind period from baseline to Week 24. The double-blind period was followed by a 72-week open-label treatment with some switching of sc and iv administration. No placebo was administered in the open-label phase. Participants continued on their stable dose of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) throughout the study. Anticipated time on study treatment was 2 years.
NCT02283320
BIND-014 (docetaxel nanoparticles for injectable suspension) is being studied in patients with v-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) mutation positive or squamous cell non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have progressed after treatment of one prior platinum-containing chemotherapy regimen.
NCT02174263
This phase II trial studies how well tocilizumab works in treating chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients that have not responded to treatment after at least two prior therapies. Tocilizumab blocks a protein that stimulates the body's immune system. By blocking this protein, the investigators may reduce the symptoms of chronic GVHD.
NCT00955825
The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 300 IR sublingual tablet of grass pollen allergen extract compared to placebo in adult patient with allergic rhinoconjunctivitis.
NCT01211145
The purpose of this study is to investigate if Zomig® Nasal Spray will help children (age 12-17 years) with migraine headaches feel better. This will be done by comparing 3 different doses of Zomig Nasal Spray with placebo nasal spray (inactive treatment).
NCT01710644
The purpose of this Randomized, Double-blind, Multicenter, Two-period Crossover Study is to Assess the Efficacy and Tolerability of Burlulipase (NM-BL) in Patients with Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency due to Cystic Fibrosis
NCT01458951
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib (CP-690,550) in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis who have failed or be intolerant to one of following treatments for ulcerative colitis: oral steroids, azathiopurine/6-mercaptopurine, or anti-TNF-alpha therapy.
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).
NCT01495169
Tolerability, undertstanding of the action of the drug in the body, and understanding the effect of the drug in adolescent patients needing treatment with an antipsychotic medication
NCT00848198
This is a prospective, observational case series to determine the clinical utility of tear osmolarity and other commonly used objective tests to diagnose dry eye disease, as well as to establish referent values for objective tests of the disease.
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.
NCT00566657
Primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of riferminogene pecaplasmid (XRP0038/NV1FGF) over placebo in the prevention of major amputation above the ankle of the treated leg or of death from any cause, whichever comes first, in critical limb ischemia (CLI) patients with skin lesions. Secondary objectives are to evaluate: * The efficacy of riferminogene pecaplasmid versus placebo for delaying the time to major amputation; * The efficacy of riferminogene pecaplasmid versus placebo for delaying the time to death; * The safety of riferminogene pecaplasmid in the study population.
NCT00400478
This is a randomized, open label, phase III study to evaluate the ability of rituximab maintenance therapy to prolong event-free survival in aggressive NHL. Patients will be screened after successful standard induction therapy (CR or Cru following standard R-CHOP-like therapy with 8 infusions of rituximab plus CHOP-like chemotherapy (4-8 cycles). Patients will be followed until an event occurs as defined in the protocol. To evaluate the clinical efficacy of rituximab maintenance therapy as compared to observation in patients with aggressive B-cell Non-Hodgkins lymphoma or follicular lymphoma grade 3b who have achieved a complete remission after appropriate first-line therapy, measured by event-free survival (EFS), 440 patients with DLCBL or follicular NHL grade 3 (220 per arm) will be recruited.
NCT01578850
To compare the maintenance of efficacy of the combination of etanercept 50 mg once weekly plus methotrexate with or without other disease modifying antirheumatic drugs therapy with that of methotrexate with or without other disease modifying antirheumatic drugs therapy at Week 52 in subjects with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis who have achieved low disease activity after 24 weeks of therapy with open label etanercept 50 mg once weekly plus MTX with or without other disease modifying antirheumatic drugs therapy.
