NCT00144911
This study evaluates the effect of two medicines on COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) exacerbations. This study will last up to 56 weeks, and subjects will visit the clinic 10 times. Subjects will be given breathing tests and will record their breathing symptoms daily on diary cards. All study related medicines and medical examinations will be provided at no cost. The two drugs used in this study have been approved by the FDA for use in patients with COPD.
NCT01947101
Patients diagnosed with ulcerative colitis (UC), a specific type of inflammatory bowel disease, will be invited to take part in this study. The investigators do not know what causes UC. However, the microbes (such as bacteria and viruses), which normally live in our intestines are thought to play an important role in the development of UC. There are many treatment options for UC such as steroids,and other medications that decrease inflammation. However, none of these can cure the disease. This study aims to treat pediatric UC in an alternative fashion by changing the microbes in the gut by giving the participant's stool specimens from healthy adult individuals. There is some evidence from a few cases of adult UC that this therapy may cure the disease or at least provide long lasting suppression (remission) of the symptoms. The investigators would like to test this therapeutic intervention in children with UC. The purpose of this study is to (1) examine the microbiome of stool and colon (2) and to determine whether healthy-donated stool enemas can treat pediatric ulcerative colitis. (3) The investigators will also study the effects of the treatment on colonic gene expression.
NCT01458951
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib (CP-690,550) in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis who have failed or be intolerant to one of following treatments for ulcerative colitis: oral steroids, azathiopurine/6-mercaptopurine, or anti-TNF-alpha therapy.
NCT02600546
Evaluate the repeatability and reproducibility of the RTVue-XR for measuring the total corneal thickness (pachymetry), the epithelial thickness, and the stromal thickness mapping in normal subjects and corneal patients.
NCT00932646
The study is intended to characterize the lung function profile of BI1744 in COPD patients where patients will perform pulmonary function tests at regular intervals for 24 hours at the end of a 6 week treatment period. Each patient will receive all four treatments.
NCT01609062
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety of a 2.0 mg/kg/week and a 4.0 mg/kg/week of BMN 110 in patients with Morquio A syndrome for up to 196 weeks. Secondary objectives were to investigate the effect of the two doses on exercise capacity for up to 196 weeks. In addition, the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of both doses of BMN 110 was assessed.
NCT01659138
Primary Objective: To assess the efficacy of SAR339658 Secondary Objective: To assess the safety of SAR339658
NCT01836042
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety of the Glaukos® iStent® Trabecular Micro-Bypass Stent Model GTS100R/L in subjects previously enrolled in Glaukos Study GC-003.
NCT01640756
To establish the safety and performance of the AqueSys Microfistula Implant in eyes with refractory glaucoma.
NCT01658943
This randomized phase II trial studies how well selumetinib and Akt inhibitor MK2206 work compared to modified fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX) therapy in treating patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer previously treated with chemotherapy. Selumetinib and Akt inhibitor MK2206 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as oxaliplatin, and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet know whether selumetinib and Akt inhibitor MK2206 are more effective than oxaliplatin and fluorouracil in treating patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
NCT01587079
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of Glycopyrrolate/Formoterol Fumarate MDI relative to individual components (GP MDI and FF MDI) in subjects with moderate to severe COPD
NCT00323518
CG53135-05 (velafermin), a recombinant human fibroblast growth factor-20 (rhFGF-20) protein, is under investigation for the prevention of oral mucositis. Oral mucositis is a commonly occurring side effect of high-dose chemotherapy in patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant. The objective of this Phase II trial is to confirm the safety and efficacy of CG53135-05 (velafermin) when administered as a single dose to patients at risk for developing oral mucositis.
NCT01727141
This study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of QVA149 in patients with moderate to severe airflow limitation.
NCT00685373
This will provided long-term safety and efficacy data for ACZ885 (a fully human anti-interleukin-1β \[anti-IL-1β\] monoclonal antibody) given as an injection subcutaneously in patients who participated in the CACZ885A2102 (NCT00487708), CACZ885D2201 (NCT00685373) or CACZ885D2304(NCT00465985) studies or newly identified patients with the following cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes: Familial Cold Autoinflammatory Syndrome, Muckle-Wells Syndrome or Neonatal Onset Multisystem Inflammatory Disease. The duration of this study was 6 months with a maximum duration of 2 years
NCT02531152
Primary Objective: To assess the local and systemic safety and tolerability of ascending repeated topical doses of SAR366234 monotherapy in patients with open angle glaucoma (OAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT) as compared to latanoprost. Secondary Objective: To assess the pharmacodynamic activity of ascending repeated topical doses of SAR366234 in patients with OAG or OHT as compared to latanoprost.
NCT00075855
RATIONALE: The hormone testosterone may improve the libido (sex drive) in women. It is not yet known whether testosterone is effective in improving libido in female cancer survivors. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying how well low-dose testosterone works to improve libido in postmenopausal cancer survivors.
NCT00346749
This study evaluates the effect of two medicines on COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease). The study will last 12 weeks. At the end of 12 weeks of treatment, subjects will stop the study medicines for 2 weeks. The study will involve 6 visits to the clinic. Subjects who elect to undergo bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) procedures will have 8 study visits. Subjects will give sputum, blood, and in some cases BAL samples. Subjects will have breathing tests and will complete diary cards during the study. All study medicines and examinations will be given at no cost to the study subjects. Both medicines used in this study have been approved by the US FDA.
