NCT00604175
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted disease in the world. HPV infection can cause genital warts and certain cervical problems, including cervical cancer. HPV infection may be more severe and harder to treat in HIV-infected people. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the quadrivalent HPV vaccine is safe, tolerable, and effective in producing antibodies to HPV in HIV-infected women.
NCT00001030
To compare the efficacy and safety of clarithromycin alone versus rifabutin alone versus the two drugs in combination for the prevention or delay of Mycobacterium avium Complex (MAC) bacteremia or disseminated MAC disease. To compare other parameters such as survival, toxicity, and quality of life among the three treatment arms. To obtain information on the incidence and clinical grade of targeted gynecologic conditions. Persons with advanced stages of HIV are considered to be at particular risk for developing disseminated MAC disease. The development of an effective regimen for the prevention of disseminated MAC disease may be of substantial benefit in altering the morbidity and possibly the mortality associated with this disease and its treatment.
NCT00000895
The purpose of this study is to determine if infection with Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) occurs in other parts of the body before it is found in the blood. This study also evaluates the relationships between the amount of HIV in the blood, immune system functions, and the presence of MAC infection. HIV-positive patients are at risk for MAC infection because their immune systems have been weakened by HIV. It is hoped that aggressive treatment with anti-HIV drugs may improve their immune systems enough to prevent against MAC.
NCT00000793
To assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of amitriptyline hydrochloride versus mexiletine hydrochloride in reducing pain intensity in patients with HIV-related painful peripheral neuropathy. No large-scale controlled clinical trials of symptomatic therapy for painful HIV-related neuropathy have been attempted. Both amitriptyline and mexiletine have been useful in the management of painful neuropathies; however, both are associated with certain toxicities. In this comparative study of amitriptyline and mexiletine, benztropine mesylate also will be included as an active placebo to mimic the side effects of the study drugs.
NCT04286789
This is a randomized, vehicle controlled, double-blind, repeat dose comparative study in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) under management with DMARDs and with persistent disease activity. The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of 6 weekly repeat doses of ORTD-1.
NCT02808442
This study aims to evaluate the safety and feasibility of UCART19 to induce molecular remission in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory CD19-positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL).
NCT03956225
The purpose of this post-approval study is to demonstrate that iLux treatment offers comparable treatment effectiveness to LipiFlow for MGD treatment at 12 months post single treatment.
NCT00805948
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of the Talent Thoracic Stent Graft System for treatment of descending thoracic aneurysms (DTA)following U.S. market approval.
NCT03324581
A trial to assess the safety and efficacy of OPC-64005 in the treatment of adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
NCT02215512
In this dose-escalation study, the safety and tolerability of escalating dose levels of RRx-001 administered intravenously twice a week in subjects with brain metastases receiving whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) will be assessed. Once a maximum tolerated dose is identified, further (up to approximately 30) participants will be recruited. The study will use MRI to monitor changes in tumor blood flow associated with RRx-001.
NCT00000641
To compare the effectiveness and toxicity of two combination drug treatment programs for the treatment of disseminated Mycobacterium avium infection in HIV seropositive patients. \[Per 03/06/92 amendment: to evaluate the efficacy of azithromycin when given in conjunction with either ethambutol or clofazimine as maintenance therapy.\] Disseminated M. avium infection is the most common systemic bacterial infection complicating AIDS in the United States. The prognosis of patients with disseminated M. avium is extremely poor, particularly when it follows other opportunistic infections or is associated with anemia. Test tube studies and clinical data indicate that the best treatment program may include clofazimine, ethambutol, a rifamycin derivative, and ciprofloxacin. Test tube and animal studies indicate that amikacin is a bactericidal (bacteria destroying) drug that works better when used with ciprofloxacin. Its role in treatment programs is a key issue because of toxicity and because it must be administered parenterally (by injection or intravenously).
NCT00865969
The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy and safety of belinostat in participants with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), who failed at least one prior systemic therapy.
NCT02015819
This phase I trial studies the side effects and determines the best dose of genetically modified neural stem cells and flucytosine when given together with leucovorin for treating patients with recurrent high-grade gliomas. Neural stem cells can travel to sites of tumor in the brain. The neural stem cells that are being used in this study were genetically modified express the enzyme cytosine deaminase (CD), which converts the prodrug flucytosine (5-FC) into the chemotherapy agent 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Leucovorin may help 5-FU kill more tumor cells. The CD-expressing neural stem cells are administered directly into the brain. After giving the neural stem cells a few days to spread out and migrate to tumor cells, research participants take a 7 day course of oral 5-FC. (Depending on when a research participant enters the study, they may also be given leucovorin to take with the 5-FC.) When the 5-FC crosses into brain, the neural stem cells convert it into 5-FU, which diffuses out of the neural stem cells to preferentially kill rapidly dividing tumor cells while minimizing toxicity to healthy tissues. A Rickham catheter, placed at the time of surgery, will be used to administer additional doses of NSCs every two weeks, followed each time by a 7 day course of oral 5-FC (and possibly leucovorin). This neural stem cell-based anti-cancer strategy may be an effective treatment for high-grade gliomas. Funding Source - FDA OOPD
NCT02844439
This is a multicenter, Phase 2 study to assess the activity of tesevatinib in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.
NCT04487301
A cross-sectional, non-interventional study to assess walking performance, vascular function, and lower limb calcification in subjects with peripheral artery disease and end-stage kidney disease (PAD-ESKD) receiving hemodialysis.
NCT04210232
This is a multicenter, prospective, single-arm, open-label, clinical study of the commercially available TECNIS Toric II, Model ZCU IOL. The study will be conducted in up to 1100 subjects enrolled with 1,000 subjects needing unilateral or bilateral cataract surgery across up to 50 US study sites.
NCT02266888
In this study, doctors are trying to see if a study drug called rituximab (Rituxan®) will lower the number of B cells in the body. Doctors are also trying to see if decreasing B cells with rituximab (Rituxan®) can prevent injury to the transplanted lung. This treatment has been studied in other types of solid organ transplants.
NCT02743793
Antirejection medicines, also known as immunosuppressive drugs, are prescribed to organ transplant recipients to prevent their bodies from rejecting the new organ. Some organ transplant recipients can stop taking anti-rejection medicines without rejecting their transplanted organ (this is called 'tolerance'). The purpose of this study will collect samples and data from 'tolerant' liver or kidney transplant recipients in order to find out: The purpose of this study is to collect samples and data in order to find out: * How long liver or kidney transplant recipients can remain tolerant; * What happens in the tolerant recipient's body over time; and * If there are patterns in the body that are linked to tolerance.
NCT03015961
Primary Objective: The primary objective of this study is to compare postsurgical pain control following local infiltration analgesia (LIA) with EXPAREL admixed with bupivacaine HCl versus LIA with bupivacaine HCl in adult subjects undergoing open lumbar posterior spinal fusion surgery. Secondary Objectives: The secondary objectives of this study are to compare additional efficacy, safety, and health economic outcomes following LIA with EXPAREL admixed with bupivacaine HCl versus LIA with bupivacaine HCl in adult subjects undergoing open lumbar posterior spinal fusion surgery.
NCT02633501
The purpose of this study was to determine a safe and effective dose of a new gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) P03277 based on the Contrast to Noise Ratio (CNR) when comparing with gadobenate dimeglumine (MultiHance®) at 0.1 mmol/kg body weight (BW). Contrast to Noise Ratio (CNR), a well-known quantitative parameter directly related to contrast medium/GBCA efficacy, was chosen as the primary endpoint in order to have a precise determination of P03277 clinical dose. This was a multi-center, international, prospective, double-blind, randomized, controlled, parallel dose groups, cross-over with comparator study in male and female subjects presenting with known or highly suspected focal areas of disruption of the Blood Brain Barrier including at least one expected enhancing lesion of minimum 5 mm, who were scheduled to undergo a routine contrast-enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of Central Nervous System.
