NCT00380796
The purpose of this long-term observational study is designed to collect additional information on incidence of cancer and cause of death among patients who have participated in clinical trials of infliximab in the treatment of COPD. Patients must have received at least 1 dose of study agent (ie, placebo or infliximab) in the primary studies to be eligible for participation in this long-term follow-up study. Information on deaths and cancers will be collected twice yearly for a period of 5 years from each patient's last safety visit in the primary study.
NCT00363584
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving capecitabine after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. Sometimes, after surgery, the tumor may not need more treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. It is not yet known whether capecitabine is more effective than observation in treating biliary tract cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying capecitabine to see how well it works compared with observation in treating patients with biliary tract cancer.
NCT00906490
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the performance and safety of the intravenous blood glucose (IVBG) System relative to point of care (POC) meter performance when each method is compared to the Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) under various conditions in the operating room (OR), ICU and general ward (GW) in subjects undergoing elective or non-emergent surgery as well as subjects admitted to the medical/surgical ICU. POC meter systems are currently used in the hospital environment to measure blood glucose values. The YSI is an accepted reference standard for assessing POC meter accuracy. The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of the IVBG System as compared with the YSI under various conditions in the operating room (OR), intensive care unit (ICU) and general ward (GW) in subjects undergoing elective or non-emergent surgery as well as subjects admitted to the medical/surgical ICU.
NCT01228799
Study aims for comparison of trabeculectomy and canaloplasty, in order to find out if one operation is superior to the other. Both procedures are performed in patients with medically uncontrolled open-angle glaucoma. Canaloplasty is a recently newly introduced procedure, which showed encouraging results without antimetabolite usage intra- and postoperatively. Purpose of the study is to compare both surgeries concerning success rate, intraocular pressure, medication and complications. So far there is no comparison of the standard procedure trabeculectomy and the new approach, canaloplasty available.
NCT01923454
This study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of immediate anterior chamber paracentesis (ACP) with a 30-gauge needle as an initial treatment for acute primary angle closure (APAC).
NCT00857701
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a dynamic splinting system for knee flexion contracture following a total knee arthroplasty.
NCT01315249
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety/tolerability of indacaterol and glycopyrronium (QVA149) (fixed-dose combination) with fluticasone/salmeterol over a 26-week period in patients with moderate to severe COPD.
NCT01619748
Peripheral vascular function is impaired in people with obstructive sleep apnoea who are untreated compared with age-, weight- and sex-matched healthy controls.
NCT01217346
Cardiac syndrome X consists of a triad of chest pain, abnormal exercise stress testing and normal coronary angiogram, and is hypothesized to be related to endothelial dysfunction. Endothelial dysfunction is also reported to be linked to obstructive sleep apnea. While chest pain can be one of potential presenting symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea, the investigators hypothesize that obstructive sleep apnea is common in subjects with cardiac syndrome X.
NCT01387841
* This randomized controlled three arm study compares the effects of a yoga intervention with jacobsons progressive muscle relaxation training and only standard of care in chemotherapy naive cancer patients. * This study will also assess the neurophysiological correlates of nausea and vomiting and assess if effects of intervention on nausea and vomiting outcomes are mediated by changes in gastric motility (electrogastrogram) or stress arousal (cardiac autonomic function and sympathetic skin response) or self reported anxiety.
NCT01553955
This is a device study in some respects, in that specialized centrifuges are commonly used to make platelet rich plasma, and we are studying the use of standard laboratory equipment to do so. However, it is primarily interventional in that we will evaluate the percentage success of trainees in the concentration of viable platelets to more than 4X baseline using a generic speed centrifuge and a single spin method.
NCT01061476
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) continues to be the primary therapy prescribed for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Although effective, adherence to CPAP is suboptimal in many patients, making alternative therapies desirable. Recently, a novel device (Provent™) has been developed for the treatment of snoring and OSA. The purpose of the current study is to examine how well the Provent™ device treats OSA with particular attention to the how the it may treat sleep apnea and who may most likely benefit from the use of this treatment.
NCT01478880
First clinical studies indicate an effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) in the treatment of auditory hallucinations (AH). However, effect size, optimal stimulation site and parameters are unclear. With this randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial we test the efficacy and safety of bilateral continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS), a patterned form rTMS, against auditory hallucinations. The treatment will be applied add-on to individual antipsychotic and behavioral therapy. Patients will be treated for 6 weeks each weekday (30 sessions) with 40s of cTBS (halfway between T3/P3 and T4/P4). For weeks 1-3, half of the subjects will be randomized to a sham-stimulation (coil tilted 45°). During weeks 4-6, all subjects receive real cTBS.
NCT01321463
PH-797804 is an oral ant-inflammatory drug that may reduce the inflammation that is associated with COPD. PH-797804 will be dosed to patients with COPD to evaluate its potential safety and efficacy profile in COPD.
NCT01336569
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy of changing to DuoTrav® from prior timolol 0.5% monotherapy in participants with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
NCT01297920
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new ophthalmic suspension (Brinz/Brim) in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) relative to its individual active components in subjects with open-angle glaucoma and/or ocular hypertension.
NCT00961649
The purpose of this study was to compare the safety and intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy of a new fixed combination of brinzolamide/brimonidine (Brinz/Brim) to: * its individual components (Brinz and Brim), and * the concomitant administration of Brinz and Brim (Brinz+Brim).
NCT01891435
A randomized clinical trial to check the antipyretic efficacy of oral and intravenous paracetamol and intramuscular diclofenac sodium in patients presenting with fever to emergency department.
NCT00906360
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of sunitinib when given together with cetuximab and radiation therapy in treating patients with locally advanced or recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Sunitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving sunitinib together with cetuximab and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
NCT01554072
Pulmonary rehabilitation consists of a multidisciplinary program of care for patients with chronic respiratory disease, which currently encompasses numerous features and physical training methods aimed at maintaining stability clinic for people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), especially in patients who, even with optimized clinical treatment, continue their decline and symptomatic physical functions and 8 so that these social. goals are achieved the patient with COPD should integrate into a program of RP assiduous and with accompanying several times per week, for several months, which for a number of factors is not always possible. For this reason, it is the research of methodology of RP that hold their effectiveness, but with greater flexibility and viability to people with COPD. On this basis, this study aims to investigate the effectiveness of a program of RP semi-domiciliar in which the patient suffering from COPD can receive guidance and training in person, to develop it partially in own domicile.
