NCT01644877
This protocol will seek to enroll immunocompromised patients who are on supplemental oxygen and diagnosed with a parainfluenza infection.
NCT00875446
The drug being tested in this study is GSK1223249. It is being developed by GlaxoSmithKline to treat symptoms in patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The drug works by inhibiting the protein that prevents nerve growth. This will be the first time the drug will be given to man. The trial is expected to involve approximately 76 patients. The study objective is to investigate the tolerability, safety and the way the body handles GSK1223249 after a range of single doses or repeat dose escalation in patients with ALS.
NCT02423512
Vedolizumab is a new medication being used for the treatment of Crohn's disease and Ulcerative colitis. It works by blocking specific white blood cells (alpha 4-beta7 lymphocytes) from migrating to areas of inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. Previous studies have shown that patients who have previous exposure to another type of medication for Crohn's disease and Ulcerative colitis (anti-TNF medications) do not respond to vedolizumab as well as those who have never been exposed. This study will investigate biologic markers in the blood and tissue the help identify possible reasons for this difference.
NCT01403142
Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is a unique form of accelerated plaque formation seen in the coronary arteries of patients who have received heart transplantation. It is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients after heart transplant. Little progress has been made in characterizing this disease process, with more sophisticated imaging allowing for more detailed analysis of CAV, superior stratification of transplant recipients is possible and earlier interventions can be performed if necessary to prevent mortality and graft loss. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a novel imaging modality with much higher resolution then Intra-Vascular Ultrasound (IVUS). This study will involve examining patients post-heart transplant using this high-resolution imaging modality. It is currently the standard care for patients post-heart transplant to receive annual coronary angiograms with close follow up. Patients will be imaged using OCT at the time of their routine annual angiogram, and will be re-imaged one year later at the time of the next annual angiogram or earlier if clinically indicated. The study goal is to better characterize CAV in vivo with OCT imaging and to try to identify patterns of the disease, including intra-coronary risk assessment.
NCT02276209
This is a randomized, double blind, multicenter, parallel group, outpatient study evaluating the efficacy and safety of dasotraline in adults with ADHD.
NCT00045110
Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of erlotinib in treating patients who have recurrent malignant glioma or recurrent or progressive meningioma. Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth.
NCT00282503
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of ECP treatment combined with high dose corticosteroids versus high dose corticosteroids alone, in the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed acute GvHD (Grades II to III) that developed within 100 days following an allo HPCT.
NCT00739310
To asssess efficacy of airway clearance provided by Vest therapy (HFCWO) in the reduction of respiratory exacerbations requiring hospitalization or antibiotic utilization in patients with muscle weakness and restrictive lung disease.
NCT01922843
The goal of this study is to test a new vitamin D compound for its ability to reduce parathyroid hormone levels in patients who are on hemodialysis.
NCT01467882
The study will investigate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of triptorelin 22.5 mg 6-month formulation in 44 patients suffering from central precocious puberty. The total study duration per patient will be 12 months (48 weeks).
NCT01999192
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of three different Tregalizumab doses in combination with Methotrexate (MTX) in subjects who have active rheumatoid arthritis and an inadequate response to MTX alone. The overall study duration is 24 weeks followed by a 24 week extension phase.
NCT03043027
Percutaneous nephrostolithotomy (PCNL) is a common endoscopic procedure performed for upper urinary tract calculus disease. Despite being minimally invasive, it is associated with significant postoperative pain, often necessitating inpatient hospitalization and narcotic pain medications. Additionally, one of a number of catheters is often left protruding from the access tract for a period of time following the procedure, adding to patient discomfort. Attempts have been made to study peri-tubular or access tract analgesic installation, which have shown promise.1-2 However, no studies, to our knowledge, have examined the use of liposomal bupivacaine preparations in this regard. In this study we hope to prospectively analyze the use of liposomal bupivacaine injected to the access tract site at the time of PCNL and determine its effects on postoperative narcotic requirement and pain scores. Patients presenting for PCNL will be randomized to either the liposomal bupivacaine or usual care, which involves no injection of local anesthesia. Patients will then be followed during their inpatient stay. Total narcotic requirement (in milligrams) and pain scores (using Wong-Baker FACES rating scale) will be compared.3 Typical postoperative care and discharge criteria will not change during the course of this study.
NCT02785445
The objectives of the Healthy.io Method Comparison and User Performance Study are: 1. To evaluate the performance of Dip.io Device in comparison to the ACON U500 Mission® U500 Urine Analyzer. 2. To evaluate the user performance of Dip.io Device under actual use conditions (home environment) based on a user questionnaire and rating scale.
NCT03281356
This pilot study aims to assess the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary effectiveness of text messages designed to encourage shared reading among urban parents. We hypothesize that parents will report reading more often to their children after receiving the text messages.
NCT00016523
This multicenter trial tested whether inhaled nitric oxide would reduce death or the need for oxygen in preterm infants (less than 34 weeks gestational age) with severe lung disease.
NCT00540722
This phase II trial is studying how well gossypol works in treating patients with progressive or recurrent glioblastoma multiforme. Gossypol may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT02220686
The purpose of the study is to see if vascular physicians (your provider) using a combination of proven smoking cessation tools in an organized way can help vascular patients quit smoking better than usual. The doctors where you are being treated have been chosen to either provide: the combination therapy of giving you advice, considering prescribing medications to help you quit smoking, and referring you to a phone quitline, or to continue their usual smoking cessation practices (which may include all, some, or none of the treatments above).
NCT00354965
Clinical research study to test amoxicillin and clavulanate tablet formulation for use in Acute Bacterial Sinusitis (ABS) in adolescent patients weighing at least 40 kilogram (kg) and no more than 16 years old. ABS is an acute bacterial infection of the sinus. The purpose of this study is to find out how children tolerate Augmentin XR and what happens to Augmentin XR in the body after it has been swallowed by children.
NCT01381549
This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety, efficacy (clinical and microbiological), pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of GSK2251052 and to assess whether it would be a suitable antibiotic for the treatment for febrile lower cUTI and pyelonephritis(complicated and uncomplicated). GSK2251052 will be compared to imipenem-cilastatin, which is an antibiotic commonly used to treat serious cUTI infections. GSK2251052 has a spectrum of microbiological activity that includes pathogens responsible for cUTI.
NCT01295346
The purpose of this study is to assess if putative brain injury biomarkers have utility as blood-based traumatic brain injury (TBI) diagnostic and monitoring tools. This will be accomplished by examining the relationships between potential serum-based TBI biomarkers and clinical measures of injury severity, occurrence of complications, and outcome, in subjects with mild or moderate TBI. The assay will be evaluated in a sample population of subjects over the age of 18 who have been referred to the health care provider for closed head injury evaluation.
