NCT00373529
Clolar (clofarabine injection) is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of pediatric patients 1 to 21 years old with relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who have had at least 2 prior treatment regimens. This study will evaluate the efficacy of clofarabine in elderly patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) who are unlikely to benefit from treatment with intensive chemotherapy regimens (cytarabine and anthracycline based regimens) used in younger patients with AML.
NCT00245739
The purpose of this study is to provide early access to TMC114 (a protease inhibitor) for HIV-1 infected patients with limited or no treatment options, who have failed multiple antiretroviral (ARV) regimens, and to evaluate the longer-term safety and tolerability of TMC114/r in combination with other antiretrovirals
NCT00254293
The purpose of this study is to study serum levels of Abatacept after subcutaneous dosing in subjects with RA.
NCT00768300
The ARTEMIS-IPF study was conducted to determine if ambrisentan was effective in delaying disease progression and death in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), to evaluate its safety, and to evaluate its effect on development of pulmonary hypertension, quality of life, and dyspnea (shortness of breath) symptoms in this participant population. Participants were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive ambrisentan or placebo, respectively. Participation in the study was to be up to 4 years, depending on how long it would take to enroll participants and observe study events. After randomization, visits to the clinic took place every 3 months, and laboratory procedures were performed every month.

NCT01596920
The primary objective of the present study is to further establish in a randomized controlled trial, the safety and efficacy of weekly Grafix® administration versus control in patients with chronic diabetic foot ulcers. The primary endpoint is complete wound closure of the index wound, defined as 100% re-epithelialization as determined by the Investigator. Grafix® is a product regulated for use in the US by the FDA as a Human Cellular and Tissue Based Product (HCT/P) under Title 21 CFR Part 1271.
NCT00112996
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Chemoprotective drugs, such as alpha-lipoic acid, may protect normal cells from the side effects of chemotherapy. Alpha-lipoic acid may also prevent damage to nerves that carry information to and from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body. It is not known whether alpha-lipoic acid is more effective than placebo in preventing peripheral neuropathy. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying alpha-lipoic acid to see how well it works compared to placebo in preventing peripheral neuropathy in patients receiving chemotherapy for cancer.
NCT00032591
Since home monitors of prothrombin time (PT) may potentially improve the safety, quality, and convenience of chronic anticoagulation management, it is likely that there will be demands from providers, patients, and manufacturers to make home monitors available to VA patients. The rationale for patient self-testing (PST) is that, compared to conventional high quality anticoagulation management (HQACM), it would permit more intense monitoring and increased patient participation in his/her own care, resulting in increased precision in anticoagulation control and thus fewer events of thromboembolism (strokes) and bleeding. The secondary hypothesis is that PST and HQACM will be comparable in terms of health care utilization and cost.
NCT00317642
Clofarabine (injection) is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of pediatric patients 1 to 21 years old with relapsed acute or refractory lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who have had at least 2 prior treatment regimens. There is no recommended standard treatment for relapsed or refractory acute myelogenous leukemia in older patients. Cytarabine is the most commonly used drug to treat these patients. This study will determine if there is benefit by combining clofarabine with cytarabine. Patients will be randomized to receive up to 3 cycles of treatment with either placebo in combination with cytarabine or clofarabine in combination with cytarabine. Randomization was stratified by remission status following the first induction regimen (no remission \[i.e., CR1 = refractory\] or remission \<6 months vs CR1 = remission ≥6 months). CR1 is defined as remission after first pre-study induction regimen. The safety and tolerability of clofarabine in combination with cytarabine and cytarabine alone will be monitored throughout the study.
NCT00196352
This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety of ethinyl an extended-regimen oral contraceptive, with ethinyl estradiol supplementation during the usual hormone-free week, for up to an additional three consecutive years.
NCT00951938
The purpose of this study is to utilize Trinity Evolution in conjunction with an interbody spacer and supplemental anterior fixation of the surgeon's choice and to follow the patients to measure the clinical outcomes and rate of fusion. The hypothesis of the study is that Trinity Evolution combined with an interbody spacer and supplemental anterior fixation will result in fusion rates and clinical outcomes similar to those with other routinely used autograft and allograft materials including: fusion, improvement in pain and function, maintenance of upper extremity neurological function, and absence of serious adverse events related to the use of the Trinity Evolution product.
NCT01543230
The primary objective of this investigation is to evaluate survivorship at ten years. For this post approval study (PAS), a maximum acceptable hazard of revision is assumed to be a constant 1% per year.
NCT01280695
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of MSDC-0602 and to evaluate the reduction in fasting plasma glucose in patients with Type 2 diabetes.
NCT00436644
RATIONALE: Lapatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving lapatinib together with topotecan may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving lapatinib together with topotecan works in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer or primary peritoneal cancer that did not respond to cisplatin or carboplatin.
NCT01503411
The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the performance of the Nvision Volumetric Laser Endomicroscopy (VLE) system to visualize subsurface tissue in subjects undergoing esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and to identify work-flow and training implications for introducing this new imaging modality.
NCT00979251
This Phase 2, open label, randomized study will investigate the virologic benefit, clinical efficacy, safety, and tolerability of amantadine and ribavirin with oseltamivir (TCAD) versus oseltamivir monotherapy for the treatment of all strains of influenza A in immunocompromised adult and pediatric subjects.
NCT00645333
New and better therapies for locally advanced and metastatic breast cancer are needed because, even if standard treatment is successful in shrinking the cancer, there is still a high chance that the cancer will recur. Recent research suggests that breast tumors have a small number of cells in them that are "breast cancer stem cells", which are very resistant to standard treatment. It is thought that the reason that many patients cannot be cured of their breast cancers is that the stem cells are unable to be killed and remain in the body after standard treatment. Laboratory research has shown that a new drug, MK-0752, can target stem cells and prevent tumor recurrences when the drug is combined with docetaxel, a chemotherapy drug commonly used to treat breast cancer. We know that MK-0752 is safe when given by itself to people. We do not know if treatment with MK-0752 and docetaxel combined is safe or if it will kill "breast cancer stem cells" in people with breast cancer. This clinical trial is being done to determine the safety of several doses of MK-0752 in combination with docetaxel. Preliminary data about the effectiveness of MK-0752 in combination with docetaxel will be collected. Also, tumor biopsy samples will be taken from some patients who have tumors that can be easily biopsied. The samples will be used to perform research tests to help determine if the "breast cancer stem cells" are being killed by the drug combination.
NCT00044512
