NCT00116649
Actinic keratosis (AK) is a skin condition that shows up on skin routinely exposed to the sun, such as the face, scalp, shoulders, chest, back, arms, and hands. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of one, two, or three cycles of imiquimod for the treatment of AK. The AK lesions treated can be in adjacent and nonadjacent areas of the head, torso, and extremities. The total surface area for the AK lesions must be greater than 25 cm2. The secondary objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment with imiquimod in people with large surface areas of AK.

NCT00000167
To determine whether application of low-intensity laser treatment of eyes with drusen in the macula can prevent later complications of age-related macular degeneration and thereby preserve visual function.
NCT00509548
Wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is caused by the formation and growth of abnormal blood vessels (angiogenesis) in the retina. The new blood vessels have fragile walls and can leak fluid into the retina. The build-up of fluid (edema) under the macula can distort vision or cause vision loss. TG100801 is a topical (eye drop) therapy that has been shown to inhibit ocular angiogenesis, vascular leak, and inflammation in laboratory studies. The primary purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the ability of topical administration of TG100801 to reduce the amount of fluid in the retina in patients with AMD following 30 days of treatment. An additional objective is to evaluate the safety of TG100801 in patients with AMD.
NCT00473928
The objective of this study is to provide initial safety and tolerability information of intravitreal POT-4 for treatment of patients with AMD
NCT00605176
The purpose of this study is to determine whether imiquimod creams are effective in treating Actinic Keratoses when applied to the face or balding scalp. Actinic keratosis (AK) is a skin condition that shows up on skin routinely exposed to the sun, such as the face, scalp, shoulders, chest, back, arms, and hands. The active ingredient contained in the study cream for this study is the same as that of the approved product Aldara, which has been shown to be safe and effective for the treatment of AKs.
NCT00162292
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if it is safe for rheumatoid arthritis patients to take BMS-582949 along with methotrexate.
NCT00716404
This is a prospective, observational, multi-center study with consecutive enrollment. Up to 1,000 patients will be enrolled. The objective of this post-marketing surveillance study is to collect clinical usage patterns of the Benephit Infusion Systems. As a result, FlowMedica will be able to: 1. Better understand and quantify usage patterns including patient characteristics, adjunctive procedures, and infusion agents. 2. Collect user-interface information and overall customer satisfaction. 3. Monitor post-marketing device performance.
NCT01113606
The aims of the Skin Product Assessment Research study were to (1) develop an infrastructure and process for industry-sponsored, Plastic Surgery Educational Foundation (PSEF) research in facial aesthetic surgery and (2) test the research process by comparing outcomes of the Obagi Nu-Derm System (ODNS) and conventional therapy as treatment adjuncts in ablative facial resurfacing.
NCT00003913
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Umbilical cord blood transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy or radiation therapy that was used to kill cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of umbilical cord blood transplantation plus combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have hematologic cancer or nonmalignant hematologic disease.
NCT00097968
Everolimus is an immunosuppressive drug that is being studied for preventing acute rejection that can happen after heart transplantation. It is usually used in combination with other immunosuppressive drugs such as cyclosporine. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the change in kidney function after beginning everolimus, while determining the most effective Neoral® (cyclosporine) dose to take with everolimus, in adult cardiac transplant patients who have had their transplanted heart for at least 1 year and who have cardiac allograft vasculopathy.
NCT00295282
This is a Phase I dose-escalation study of MDX-1100. patients with ulcerative colitis will be enrolled into one of four dose cohorts, to receive of MDX-1100 at 0.3, 1.0, 3.0 or 10mg/kg. Three to six patients will be enrolled at each dose level, starting at the lowest dose level, for a maximum of 24 patients to be enrolled into the study. The study is designed to establish the safety and tolerability of single doses of MDX-1100 administered in dose-escalating cohorts to patients with ulcerative colitis. Other study objectives include characterizing a pharmacokinetic profile and pharmacodynamic effects of MDX-1100 and determination of immunogenic response to MDX-1100.
NCT01083875
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of 0.5% amlexanox oral rinse compared to a vehicle control on mucositis-related ulceration and erythema (objective score)and on mucositis-related oral pain (subjective score). A secondary objective was to evaluate the safety of 0.5% amlexanox oral rinse by determining the frequency of treatment-emergent drug-related adverse events or clinical laboratory abnormalities.
NCT00577304
The purpose of this research study is to test the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of Topical AmphiMatrix with Nitroglycerin (MQX0503) to relieve Raynaud's symptoms and increase blood flow to the fingers.
NCT00000139
To determine whether early treatment (with oral acyclovir) of herpes simplex virus (HSV) ulcerations of the corneal epithelium prevents progression to the blinding complications of stromal keratitis and iridocyclitis. To determine the efficacy of low-dose oral acyclovir in preventing recurrent HSV eye infection in patients with previous episodes of herpetic eye disease. To determine the role of external factors (such as ultraviolet light or corneal trauma) and behavioral factors (such as life stress) on the induction of ocular recurrences of HSV eye infections and disease.
NCT00061737
Measurement of the quality of life (QoL) of children and adolescents with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) has had little attention, despite the importance of understanding key factors affecting QoL, especially for measuring the effects of clinical trials to improve IBD outcomes. The main purpose of this pilot study is to examine the impact of clinical severity and treatment social factors on the quality of life (QoL) of a diverse population of children and adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Secondary purposes include determining the effects of sociodemographic factors on QoL and exploring the concordance of views of parents and children of QoL. The study aims are to 1) determine the associations of of clinical characteristics (condition type, activity/severity, and treatment) with specific components of general health-related quality of life and IBD-specific QoL; 2) describe the effects of sociodemographic characteristics (SES, age, and gender) on these measures; and 3) compare the views of different observers (parent and child with IBD) of the child's QoL. The study will apply both general and condition-specific QoL measures among a random sample of 250 children and adolescents with IBD, ages 5-18 years, in six clinical sites. We will obtain measures of QoL from both the child and a parent in each case. The study will obtain additional data regarding the subjects' clinical condition (condition type, severity/activity, treatment \[including surgery\], age of onset) and socioeconomic status (household structure and income). Main analyses will compare general and specific measures of QoL and examine the influence of clinical and sociodemographic variables on QoL, through multivariate regression techniques. We will also examine the differences in child and parent assessments of QoL. The information from this study will provide a stronger base for future studies of treatment and natural history of IBD. It will help to clarify the life domains that are affected by IBD and will inform interventions to improve QoL for children with IBD.
