NCT00003765
Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of O6-benzylguanine and carmustine in treating children who have refractory CNS tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.
NCT00055835
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, paclitaxel, gemcitabine, and cisplatin, work in 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. Giving chemotherapy before radiation therapy, and combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy, may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of neoadjuvant gemcitabine, paclitaxel, and carboplatin followed by cisplatin and radiation therapy in treating patients who have locally advanced or recurrent carcinoma (cancer) of the urothelium.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of davunetide for the treatment of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy.
NCT00746993
In the United States, highly effective methods of birth control are often not used. Healthcare providers use birth control counseling and patient education as ways to increase the usage of birth control. However, little evidence exists to show that patient education and birth control counseling changes birth control use. We want to evaluate the effectiveness of using a uniform set of birth control information to provide birth control education to women having an early pregnancy termination. The counselors will allow the clients to both read as well as hear the information. We propose to evaluate whether this counseling will lead to 1) more women choosing highly effective nonpermanent birth control methods and 2) more women continuing to use these methods for a longer time. Women in the study will complete a questionaire about their health. Half of them will have the structured counseling and half will have the routine counseling currently offered to women as a part of their routine care. We will contact all study participants with a telephone call three months and six months later to have a 10 minute conversation about what birth control they are using.
NCT01281631
This is a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study of NP001 in subjects with ALS.
NCT00542685
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of PD 0332334 for the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder.
NCT00475306
Metoclopramide is a dopamine antagonist frequently used for the treatment of nausea, vomiting, and migraine headaches in Emergency Departments. However, little research has focused on the optimal dose of metoclopramide for treatment of nausea in the emergency department. We propose a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial to investigate the optimal dose of metoclopramide for treatment of nausea.
NCT00892957
The purpose of this study was to compare safety and efficacy of FS VH S/D 500 s-apr (FS) versus manual compression in prosthetic expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) graft placement.
NCT01013480
Study 22001, "A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Flexible-Dose Evaluation of the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of STX209 in the Treatment of Irritability in Subjects with Fragile X Syndrome" currently is evaluating the efficacy of STX209 (R-baclofen) for management of typical problem behaviors, such as irritability and aggression, in subjects with FXS. This study (22002) will enter subjects who complete Study 22001 into a long-term, open-label study.The open-label extension protocol will provide necessary data on the long-term safety and tolerability of STX209 among subjects with FXS who receive treatment under conditions more closely reflective of their general medical care.
NCT01146509
The purpose of this extension study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of donepezil hydrochloride after extended use in migraine prophylaxis. Efficacy will continue to be evaluated.
NCT01710033
This was a Phase 1 dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of 28-day treatment of CP-690,550 in stable renal allograft recipients. In Stage 1, ascending doses of CP-690,550 were to be administered sequentially to 3-4 cohorts of subjects. After Stage 1, one dose level was to be selected for dosing in an expanded cohort in Stage 2.
NCT00205855
There are many treatment options available for the management of chronic pain . Some include, but are not limited to, over-the-counter medications, Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs, Physical Therapy, Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) and nerve blocks. Historically, the mainstay of pain treatment has been pharmacotherapy. However, pharmacotherapy has varying degrees of effectiveness and is often associated with undesirable side effects. Although many patients are successfully treated, for those who fail some of these more conservative therapies the remaining option is limited to spinal cord stimulation (SCS), proven to be an effective therapy to more than half of those failing conservative treatments . Over 50% of those who have failed these more conservative methods of pain management, can now, under the guidance of a clinician utilizing SCS, have their pain levels successfully managed. SCS is a less invasive therapy that is a reversible treatment with greater long-term benefits than more permanent, radical approaches and one that deserves greater consideration in the management of chronic, intractable pain.
NCT00891072
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of gossypol when given together with paclitaxel and carboplatin in treating patients with solid tumors that are metastatic or cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gossypol, paclitaxel, and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving gossypol together with paclitaxel and carboplatin may kill more tumor cells
NCT00293657
To determine whether a single dose of intravenous lornoxicam is superior to intravenous placebo for the acute treatment of moderate or severe headache associated with a single migraine attack in patients with a history of migraine. Two-thirds of patients in this study will receive a single dose of intravenous lornoxicam (8mg or 16 mg) and one-third of patients will receive a single dose of an intravenous placebo.
NCT00001039
To assess the feasibility of using culture and staining techniques to quantify tissue Mycobacterium avium Complex (MAC) burden in bone marrow. To correlate and compare changes in MAC bone marrow burden with quantitative MAC blood culture results at baseline and after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment. MAC is easiest to detect in the blood, although doctors generally believe that MAC in blood is just "spill-over" from infection of other parts of the body. Traditionally, studies of potential treatments for MAC focus only on MAC changes in the blood. This study compares MAC changes in blood to those in bone marrow, which is another tissue where MAC is often found.
