NCT00238264
RATIONALE: Specialized radiation therapy that delivers radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well radiation therapy works in treating young patients with gliomas.
NCT00066469
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as cyclophosphamide, prednisone, and methylprednisolone use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Combining cyclophosphamide and either prednisone or methylprednisolone with rituximab may be effective in treating lymphoproliferative disease following organ transplantation. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining cyclophosphamide and either prednisone or methylprednisolone with rituximab in treating patients who have Epstein-Barr virus-positive lymphoproliferative disease following organ transplantation.
NCT01226004
To address pertinent questions regarding the utilization of stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) to treat prostate cancer. The Florida Robotic Radiosurgery Association (FRRA) launched the first registry for prostate cancer patients treated with SBRT. The registry is designed to track surrogate treatment endpoints including prostate specific antigen (PSA), international prostate symptom score (IPSS),sexual health in men (SHIM), and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, in addition to physical and survival data. Utilizing an independent vendor (Advertek, Inc.) experienced with the design and implementation of similar electronic registries, FRRA developed a data collection tool that staff members with a basic medical background can use to register and upload pertinent patient data, requiring no more than 20 to 30 minutes per patient. Participating patients will be monitored in follow-up for three years, with analysis and publication of the results semi-annually.
NCT03077893
A study to demonstrate the effectiveness of PEMF treatment compared to sham treatment in changing Vibration Perception Threshold (VPT) and Thermal Sensory (QST) in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) when treatment is administered twice daily through 120-day period.
NCT01722305
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of pomalidomide when given together with dexamethasone in treating patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) or intraocular lymphoma that is newly diagnosed, relapsed or refractory. Pomalidomide may stimulate the immune system to kill cancer cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving pomalidomide together with dexamethasone may kill more cancer cells.
NCT00476996
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ocrelizumab, compared with placebo, in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis who have an inadequate response to at least one anti-TNF-alpha therapy. Patients will be randomized to receive placebo, 200mg of intravenous ocrelizumab, or 500mg of i.v. ocrelizumab on days 1 and 15. A repeat course of i.v. treatment will be administered at weeks 24 and 26. All patients will receive stable doses of either concomitant methotrexate (7.5-25mg/week) or leflunomide (10-20mg po daily) and may receive additional DMARDs. The treatment period is planned for 48 weeks (until primary analysis) and then participants will enter the open label phase until the drug is commercialized. Target sample size is 1000.
NCT00286078
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an implantable device for difficult to treat migraine. There are a significant number of patients who have drug refractory migraine and alternative therapies are needed.
NCT01896232
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that treatment with etelcalcetide (AMG 416) is not inferior to treatment with cinacalcet for lowering serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels by \> 30% from baseline among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) who require management with hemodialysis.
NCT02269241
To demonstrate the contraceptive efficacy of LF111 . To demonstrate the safety and tolerability of LF111 and assessment of pharmacokinetics of LF111.
NCT02528318
This study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of lucinactant for inhalation, administered as an aerosol in up to four escalating doses to preterm neonates 26 to 28 weeks gestational age who are receiving nCPAP for RDS compared to neonates receiving nCPAP alone.
NCT01007006
The objective of this study is to evaluate whether use of TRMDU in addition to medication review leads to improved outcomes and reduced health care costs for patients when compared with medication review alone. The study will be conducted in patients assigned to Department of Defense (DOD) Warrior Transition Units (WTU's), similar DOD units, and VA polytrauma centers.
NCT01737398
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of inotersen given for 65 weeks in participants with Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy (FAP).
NCT02509078
This study evaluates whether giving a neuromuscular blocker (skeletal muscle relaxant) to a patient with acute respiratory distress syndrome will improve survival. Half of the patients will receive a neuromuscular blocker for two days and in the other half the use of neuromuscular blockers will be discouraged.
NCT00058058
RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may improve the ability to detect cancer in the unaffected breast of women recently diagnosed with unilateral breast cancer. PURPOSE: Diagnostic trial to determine the effectiveness of MRI in evaluating the unaffected breast of women recently diagnosed with unilateral breast cancer.
NCT02833857
This is a study to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics in pediatric patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism receiving a single dose of etelcalcetide at the end of hemodialysis.
NCT01097486
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of NeoFuse in subjects with a diagnosis of degenerative disc disease (DDD) at 2 or more adjacent cervical vertebral levels between C3-C4 to C7-T1. All subjects in this study will undergo 2 or 3 level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion with anterior cervical plate fixation.
NCT00116558

NCT02270203
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long term safety and effectiveness of SI joint fusion using the iFuse Implant System in patients with degenerative sacroiliitis (DS) and/or sacroiliac joint disruptions (SD). Study Design: This study is extended follow-up from two ongoing multicenter prospective US clinical trials. All participants have already undergone the surgical procedure of interest (SI joint fusion with iFuse Implant System). The two ongoing trials are: * SIFI:( Sacroiliac Joint Fusion with iFuse Implant System) a single-arm trial of patients with degenerative sacroiliitis or sacroiliac joint disruption who underwent iFuse placement, and * INSITE(Investigation of Sacroiliac Fusion Treatment): a randomized clinical trial of the same patient population who underwent either non-surgical treatment or iFuse placement
NCT02292446
The purpose of this open-label, single arm, multi-center Expanded Treatment Protocol (ETP) was to provide early access to ruxolitinib and evaluate safety information in patients with polycythemia vera (PV) who were hydroxyurea (HU) resistant or intolerant and who had no other standard treatment option, nor did they qualify for another clinical study for PV
NCT01810328
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how to treat patients with severe injuries related to trauma and to prevent failure of vital organs in this patient population. Approximately 200 severely injured patients with blunt trauma and 40 healthy volunteer subjects will be enrolled in this study. During the study seven blood samples (4-5 mls) will be collected from patients who have suffered severe trauma over a 28 day period. A one time 5 ml blood sample will be collected from the healthy volunteers. Clinical data will be collected daily while patients are hospitalized. The initial blood sample must be collected from qualifying patients within the first 12 hours of admission to the hospital. The reason for blood sampling is to validate a rapid genomic test in real time. Once confirmed, this genomic test can be used to identify patients who will have a complicated clinical course and would, therefore, be good candidates for interventional, immunomodulatory therapies.
