NCT00025181
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Vaccines made from a person's cancer cells may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining monoclonal antibody therapy and vaccine therapy in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV melanoma that has been removed during surgery.
NCT01174771
Drug therapy of atypical parkinsonism is generally considered either ineffective or minimal 1. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find alternative therapies to treat atypical parkinsonian disorders. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a noninvasive tool that modulates cortical excitability with minimal discomfort and holds therapeutic promise in treating neurological and psychiatric disorders. The basal ganglia-thalamocortical circuits that are affected in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) and Corticocbasal Ganglionic Degeneration (CBGD) are likely structurally and functionally segregated. The 'motor' circuit is implicated in parkinsonian akinesia and hypokinesia; a 'prefrontal' circuit is implicated in working memory and mood regulation, and linked with non-motor symptoms such as depression and apathy. In this proposal, we characterize motor and prefrontal network dysfunction in PSP and CBGD patients, and propose that high-frequency and low-frequency rTMS directed over separate motor and prefrontal cortical targets of each network may show specific and selective beneficial effects on motor vs. cognitive function in PSP and CBGD patients, respectively. Quantitative motor outcome measures include timed finger tapping tasks. Quantitative cognitive outcome measures comprise a visual analogue scale (VAS). If successful, this pilot study will provide proof of principle data to suggest potential benefits for rTMS in PSP/CBGD patients, and provide sufficient data and experience to support future PSP/CBGD studies that include the use of rTMS to investigate the pathophysiology of motor and non-motor features of PSP and CBGD patients.
NCT00236067
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an investigational anti-anxiety medication relative to placebo in patients with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD).
NCT01688947
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of 2 dose levels of V116517 versus placebo.
NCT00425321
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 100, 200, and 300 mg/day doses of RWJ-445380 for up to 12 weeks in patients with active Rheumatoid Arthritis despite methotrexate therapy.
NCT01483937
Purpose of this study is to determine the efficiency and safety of a Sensory Enrichment Multimodal Device (SEMD) when applied in conjunction with usual care vestibular-balance physical therapy for rehabilitation of patients who fall as a result of vestibular inducted disequilibrium. Study participants will receive regular physical therapy, and some will use the SEMD device while receiving usual care vestibular-balance physical therapy. The device is an elastic belt that holds eight small battery powered vibrating disks. When using the device, you will sit or stand on a force platform that measures body sway. That movement information is sent to a computer which then sends the information to you via the vibrating disks. The vibrating disks are similar to a vibrating cell phone: you can feel the vibration but it is not uncomfortable. You can also see your sway movement on the computer screen. Some tests and activities will be paced with a beeping sound. The aim of this study is six-fold: 1. Demonstrate the relative efficiency between SEMD and conventional vestibular-balance physical therapy as reported by treating physical therapists' by counting number of skills acquired in a treatment session, and the amount of time needed to acquire the skill; 2. Demonstrate greater improvement earlier on in balance test scores when using the SEMD as an adjunct to conventional vestibular-balance physical therapy; 3. Determine the difference in vestibular habituation between physical therapy plus SEMD and conventional vestibular-balance physical therapy; 4. Demonstrate a more immediate reduction in fall occurrence when using SEMD as an adjunct to conventional vestibular-balance physical therapy; 5. Determine the patient's perception of quality of life between physical therapy plus SEMD and conventional vestibular-balance physical therapy; 6. Determine difference in acquisition of large movement tasks of tandem walk, step quick-turn, and kneel-shoulder rifle-return to stand between subjects that have trained with SEMD and conventional vestibular-balance physical therapy . In addition to primary and secondary outcome measurements, efficiency of skill acquisition, devised for this study, will be evaluated by tracking the number of skills and length of time needed to acquire each skill for each physical therapy session using the Patient Skill Acquisition Chart (PSAC). Usefulness of Tandem Walk, Step Quick-turn, and Kneel- Shoulder Rifle-Return to Stand as intervention outcome, also devised for this study, will be evaluated with pre test to post tests Modified Functional Independence Measure - Motor (MFIM-Motor). These measurements were devised for this study, and will be evaluated for informational purposes only.
NCT00566449
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of JNJ-31001074 compared to placebo in adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
NCT01144949
The purpose of this study is to assess if patients treated with silodosin will have a higher spontaneous passage rate of their ureteral stone than those treated with placebo.
NCT00003625
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining more than one chemotherapy drug with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus radiation therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed brain stem glioma.
NCT00805467
The purpose of this new research study is to gain additional information about how safe and effective R935788 is over a longer period of time.
NCT00111176
The STARZ-TX2 trial (Study of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Repair with the Zenith TX2(R) TAA \[Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm\] Endovascular Graft) is a clinical trial approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to study the safety and effectiveness of the Zenith TX2 TAA Endovascular Graft in the treatment of thoracic aortic aneurysms / ulcers.
NCT01808105

NCT00883753
This study was an extension to study MA21573 \[NCT00750880\], which was an open label single arm study to investigate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of tocilizumab monotherapy, or combination therapy with non-biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDS), in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis. Patients who completed the 24 week core study, and had at least a moderate European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) response, were eligible to enter this long-term extension study, and received tocilizumab 8 mg/kg intravenous (iv) every 4 weeks. The anticipated time on study treatment was 1-2 years, and the target sample size was \> 500 individuals.
