NCT03345901
Despite improved glycemic and systemic control for many patients with diabetes, over the past several decades, diabetic retinopathy (DR) develops and progresses in a large proportion of patients, and visual loss from diabetic eye complications continues to be a leading cause of blindness in the US and other developed countries worldwide. Thus, even a modest ability to prevent DR onset or to slow DR worsening might substantially reduce the number of patients at risk for diabetes-related vision loss worldwide. Widespread use of an oral agent effective at reducing worsening of DR might also decrease the numbers of patients who undergo treatment for DR and diabetic macular edema (DME) and who are consequently at risk for side effects that adversely affect visual function. Two major studies of fenofibrate, the Fenofibrate Intervention and Event Lowering in Diabetes (FIELD) and The Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD)-eye study, have demonstrated clinically important reduction in progression of retinopathy in patients with diabetes assigned to fibrate compared with placebo. However, despite the positive clinical trial results, fenofibrate has not gained wide acceptance as a preventive agent by either ophthalmologists or primary diabetes care providers. Thus, it is important to provide further evidence demonstrating whether or not selectively increasing peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) activity reduces progression of retinopathy in patients with diabetes and non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy at baseline. Pemafibrate is a more potent and selective PPARα modulator than fenofibrate. Its efficacy is currently being evaluated in the Pemafibrate to Reduce Cardiovascular OutcoMes by Reducing Triglycerides IN patiENts With diabeTes (PROMINENT) study for prevention of cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes. Given the large study cohort with a substantial proportion likely to have DR and the multi-year duration of the PROMINENT trial, this study represents a unique opportunity to assess effects of chronic PPARα activation through pemafibrate therapy on DR outcomes. Primary Study Objective: To assess whether treatment with pemafibrate (0.2 mg orally BID) compared with placebo reduces the hazard rate of diabetic retinopathy worsening in adults with type 2 diabetes and diabetic retinopathy without neovascularization in at least one eye who are participating in the parent PROMINENT trial.
NCT02100748
The primary objective is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of IV TRV130 compared with placebo in patients with acute postoperative pain after bunionectomy.
NCT00441883
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of PF 03187207.
NCT02505035
This is a large pragmatic, randomized controlled trial to test the real-world effectiveness of inpatient palliative care consultative services in improving a number of patient- and family-centered processes and outcomes of care among seriously ill hospitalized patients. The investigators hypothesize that improved patient-centered outcomes can be achieved without higher costs by simply changing the default option for inpatient palliative care consultation for eligible patients from an opt-in to an opt-out system. To test this hypothesis the investigators will conduct a clinical trial at 11 hospitals using the same electronic health record within Ascension Health, the largest non-profit health system in the U.S.
NCT02784444
This is a randomized, double-blinded study of three doses of MSDC-0602K or placebo given orally once daily to subjects with biopsy proven NASH with fibrosis and no cirrhosis.
NCT00132041
RATIONALE: Radiofrequency ablation uses a high-frequency, electric current to kill tumor cells. CT-, MRI-, or ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation may be an effective treatment for liver cancer and cirrhosis. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well radiofrequency ablation works in treating patients with liver cancer and cirrhosis.
NCT02185794
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of voxilaprevir (formerly GS-9857) alone or with sofosbuvir (SOF)/velpatasvir (VEL) fixed dose combination (FDC) and antiviral activity of voxilaprevir in adults with genotype 1, 2, 3, 4 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. All participants will be monitored for up to 48 weeks after the last dose.
NCT03389308
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long term safety and tolerability of diacerein 1% ointment for 2 treatment cycles in subjects with EBS that previously participated in the CCP-020-301 or the CCP-020-101 studies.
NCT02081534
Randomized. double blind, placebo controlled, parallel arms dose finding study with a 4 weeks treatment period
NCT03160898
The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of CK-2127107 (hereafter referred to as reldesemtiv) versus placebo on respiratory function and other measures of skeletal muscle function in patients with ALS.
NCT02496767
This study assessed the effect of tirasemtiv versus placebo on respiratory function in patients with ALS.
NCT03382912
To compare the efficacy of pegilodecakin in combination with nivolumab versus nivolumab alone in participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer as measured by objective response rate.
NCT01952249
This is a Phase 1b/2 study of paclitaxel plus demcizumab in subjects with platinum resistant ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer.
NCT02586233
This is a Phase 1b/2, double-blind (study participants and Investigators), placebo-controlled, randomized, single-ascending dose, multi-center study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of DS-1040b in participants with Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS).
NCT01989325
This is a Phase 2 study during which patients with advanced multiple myeloma will receive either carfilzomib alone (single-agent) or carfilzomib in combination with investigational study drug filanesib (ARRY-520). Patients will be followed to determine the effectiveness of both single-agent carfilzomib and carfilzomib + filanesib in treating myeloma. Patients will be allowed to crossover from single-agent carfilzomib to carfilzomib + filanesib if disease progression occurs. Approximately 75 patients from the US will be enrolled in this study.
NCT01266460
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well vaccine therapy works in treating patients with cervical cancer that does not go to remission despite treatment (persistent) or has come back (recurrent). Vaccines therapy may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells.
NCT02979249
In the medical literature there are conflicting reports on whether iron improves symptoms in patients with EPP and XLP. Giving iron to people who are iron deficient is thought to improve EPP symptoms. However, this has never been systematically tested. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine the effect of oral iron for EPP and XLP patients.
NCT02864381
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy of andecaliximab (GS-5745) in combination with nivolumab versus nivolumab alone in adults with recurrent gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma.
NCT03168906
This is a multicenter, Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-arm, parallel-group efficacy and safety study of NEOD001 as a single agent administered intravenously in adults with AL amyloidosis who have a maintained hematologic response to their most recent treatment for AL amyloidosis (e.g., chemotherapy, autologous stem cell transplant \[ASCT\]) and have persistent renal dysfunction.
NCT04258891
The incidence of end stage renal disease (ESRD) is rapidly increasing, now affecting an estimated 7.4 million people worldwide. Numerous parameters such as demographic, clinical and functional factors drive the deterioration of the kidney, ultimately leading to ESRD. Although some ESRD prediction models have been derived in the past years, none of these models are dynamic: they do not integrate the repeated measurements recorded throughout individuals' follow-up. As highlighted in several studies, kidney function repeated measurements (i.e., trajectories) are highly associated with graft survival after kidney transplantation. The investigators made the hypothesis that these trajectories may bring relevant information in the context of graft survival risk prediction model. Hence, combining these trajectories with standard graft survival risk factors may enhance prediction performance. This could permit to derive a robust tool that could be updated over time by continuously capturing patient' personal evolution.
