NCT00617305
To evaluate the change from baseline in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), and other hemodynamic parameters, following the addition of ambrisentan to background phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitor (PDE-5i) therapy in subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) who have demonstrated a sub-optimal response to PDE-5i monotherapy. The study was originally designed as a 2-arm, double-blind, randomized study in which patients received ambrisentan or placebo for 24 weeks, and then received ambrisentan blinded to dose for 24 weeks. With Protocol Amendment 2 (12 June, 2009), the study was switched to single-arm, open-label treatment, and all patients remaining in the placebo arm were switched to open-label ambrisentan treatment. Patients who enrolled after Amendment 2 all received open-label ambrisentan.
NCT01320332
The purpose of this study is to determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) and to assess safety and tolerability of a single dose of ASP3291 in subjects with ulcerative colitis.
NCT00772005
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate whether armodafinil treatment is more effective than placebo as adjunctive therapy to antipsychotic medication in alleviating the negative symptoms of schizophrenia
NCT00655369
In a Phase II trial in subjects with nonrestorative sleep, PD 0200390 demonstrated a positive treatment effect relative to placebo on the primary endpoint, the weekly version of the Restorative Sleep Questionnaire (RSQ-W). In this study, the dose-response relationship of varying doses of PD 0200390 using the Restorative Sleep Questionnaire (RSQ-W), will be explored in Nonrestorative Sleep subjects.
NCT00569972
To demonstrate efficacy and characterize the dose response relationship of PD 0200390 on subjective wake after sleep onset in subjects with primary insomnia.
NCT00088374
This study will examine whether the drug 17AAG (17-allylamino 17-demethoxygeldanamycin) can shrink kidney tumors in patients with Von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL), a rare, inherited syndrome in which patients develop tumors in certain parts of the body. 17AAG contributes to the destruction of proteins in cells that may play in role in causing cancer and spurring tumor growth. The study will also look at the effect of 17AAG on other tumors patients may have that are caused by VHL, on the amount of blood vessels in the tumors, on the biologic activity of the tumor, and on cells circulating in the bloodstream, as well as the safety of the drug and its impact on the kidney tumor in patients whose tumor(s) is removed. Patients 18 years of age and older with von Hippel-Lindau disease who have at least one kidney tumor large enough to pose a risk of metastasis (spread of cancer to other parts of the body) may be eligible for this study. Candidates are screened with a medical history and physical examination, computed tomography (CT) scan, brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), see below), and blood and urine tests. Additional tests, including a 24-hour urine collection, ultrasound of the testicles in men, hearing test, eye exam, and MRI of the spine, may be done if recent test results are not available. Participants undergo the following tests and procedures: MRI: This test uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to show structural and chemical changes in tissue. During the scan, the patient lies on a table in a narrow cylinder containing a magnetic field, wearing earplugs to muffle loud noises that occur with electrical switching of the magnetic fields. A catheter (plastic tube) is inserted into the patient's arm to administer a contrast dye that enhances the images. 17AAG treatment: Patients receive 17AAG infusions into a vein once a week for 3 weeks out of every 4, for 3 months. The infusions last up to 1 to 2 hours. Repeat testing: After 3 months, patients have repeat MRI scans to measure changes in tumor activity, blood flow, and number of blood vessels in the tumor since the pretreatment scans. They may have additional tests, including a CT scan, eye exam, and other tests to evaluate the effect of 17AAG on the tumors.
NCT01318707
The purpose of this study is to compare the standard collection of whole blood in tiger top tubes for serum collection versus a collection method of added FVIII to whole blood samples in the hemophilia population for routine biomarker assays to ensure reliable assay results.
NCT00682500
This study will determine if administration of an suspension of calfactant, a lung surfactant, intratracheally in patients with Direct Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome within 48 hours of requiring mechanical ventilation can decrease the mortality in patients with lethal disease and shorten the course of respiratory failure in patients with sub-lethal disease.
NCT00282711
The purpose of this study is to compare two types of exercise stress testing to find the best method for detecting heart disease in women.
NCT01285570
Post-operative administration of ulimorelin is expected to reduce time to recovery of Gastrointestinal (GI) function in patients who have undergone partial large bowel resection.
NCT00388505
This study compares the safety of the tobramycin solution for inhalation with the tobramycin dry powder formulation, used with a simple inhaler
NCT00832728
This is a multicenter, open-label, randomized, concurrent control study of subjects with FHF. Subjects meeting the eligibility requirements of the study will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either standard medical therapy for FHF plus the ELAD® system, or standard medical therapy alone, with the latter defined as conventional therapy for FHF determined to be clinically appropriate by the treating physician.
NCT00534313
The purpose of this study is to determine an optimal abatacept dosing regimen for the treatment of active arthritis due to psoriatic arthritis in patients who have had a prior inadequate response to disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, including methotrexate and tumor necrosis factor alpha-blockade compounds.
NCT01296620
Post-operative administration of ulimorelin is expected to reduce time to recovery of Gastrointestinal (GI) function in patients who have undergone partial large bowel resection
NCT00030225
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with the ELAD Bioartificial Liver Assist Device is beneficial to patients in Acute Liver Failure either as a bridge to liver transplant or bridge to native liver recovery.
NCT00843050
The purpose of this study is to determine whether P276-00 is safe and effective in treatment of Mantle Cell Lymphoma that is recurred after or not responding to at least one previous line of treatment.
