NCT02134353
This trial aims to provide prospective evidence of the safety and efficacy of mannitol 400 mg b.i.d. in subjects aged 18 years and above. We hypothesize that inhaled mannitol 400 mg b.i.d. will increase the mean change from baseline FEV1 (mL) compared to control over the 26-week treatment period in adult subjects with cystic fibrosis. Any improvement in FEV1 is considered clinically meaningful, however, this trial has set a threshold of 80 mL for the purposes of determining an appropriate sample size for statistical power while retaining trial feasibility in an orphan disease population
NCT01491737
This randomized, open-label, two-arm, multi-center, Phase II study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab plus an aromatase inhibitor (AI) in first-line participants with HER2-positive and hormone receptor-positive advanced breast cancer. Participants will be randomized to one of two treatment arms; Arm A (pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab plus an AI) or Arm B (trastuzumab plus an AI). Participants may also receive induction chemotherapy (a taxane, either docetaxel or paclitaxel) at the investigator's discretion in combination with the assigned treatment arm. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or death whichever occurs first.
NCT00723957
The purpose of this study is to determine whether progression-free survival with ixabepilone is superior to that achieved with paclitaxel plus carboplatin in participants with advanced nonsmall-cell lung cancer and beta III (βIII)-tubulin-positive tumors.

The secondary objectives of the study are to assess overall safety and tolerability of KarXT in adult inpatients with a DSM-5 diagnosis of schizophrenia.
NCT00901966
This K07 Career Development Award application is designed to expand Dr. Dennis career development from cancer etiology to cancer prevention and control. The career development plan rests on mentoring directed by experts in cancer prevention research and protected time to foster my professional development as an independent cancer control researcher. A unique population, the Agricultural Health Study (AHS) cohort, will be used to examine sun exposure, sun protection behavior, and factors affecting these behaviors regarding the risk of melanoma in private pesticide applicators (farmers) and their spouses. The research plan proposed to examine skin melanoma within this prospective cohort of private applicators (mostly farmers) and their spouses in Iowa and North Carolina (the AHS) in association with environmental factors. Specific aim 1 examined the risk of melanoma in the AHS cohort using various existing measures of sun exposure adjusted for skin sensitivity and sun protection. Subsequently (for aim 2) qualitative research methods were used to design appropriate measures of sun exposure, sun protection behavior, and factors affecting these behaviors in private applicators and their spouses within the AHS based on the cohort analyses. Now Aim 3 will be completed by conducting a nested case-control study of melanoma within the AHS cohort to examine in more detail sun exposure histories and protective behavior. The questionnaire was designed based on findings from the cohort analyses (aim 1) and qualitative methods (aim 2). The risk of melanoma will be examined regarding: a) the complex relationship of cumulative (sun exposure during each decade of life) and intermittent sun exposure (sunburns and sunny vacations), b) factors affecting behavior including attitudes about sun exposure and prevention, and c) the use of tanning salons and sunless tanning creams, particularly in spouses (expected to be rare overall). The final aim is to use the results from the cohort and nested case-control studies to design a behavioral intervention, along with short computer automated telephone interview (CATI) that can be used in the whole AHS cohort or other farming populations. Funding for such studies will be sought through the R01) mechanism as an independent cancer control researcher. The behavioral intervention will be based on those factors that are the strongest risk factors for melanoma, highly prevalent, and easily modifiable. The behavioral intervention will be designed based on knowledge and skill gained from the Career Development Plan goals.

Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a global health threat. The body uses antibodies to fight infection. VRC07-523LS is an antibody directed against HIV. It may be used to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV. It may also prevent sexual transmission of HIV and treat HIV-1 infected people. Objective: To test the safety, tolerability, dose, and pharmacokinetics of VRC07-523LS in healthy adults. Eligibility: Healthy people ages 18-50 Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood and urine tests Participants will be assigned to 1 of 7 groups: Groups 1-5 will get the drug at 1 visit and then be observed for 24 weeks. Groups 6 and 7 will get the drug at 1 visit every 12 weeks, for a total of 3 doses over 48 weeks. Participants will get the drug in 1 of 2 ways: Infusion into a vein over at least 30 minutes. Participants will have blood tests 1, 3, and 6 hours after the infusion. They will have 1-3 visits during that week. Those in Group 7 will have 4-5 visits in the week after their second and third doses. Injection into the fatty tissue under the skin. Participants will have blood tests before the injection. They will have 1-3 visits during that week. Those in Group 6 will have 4-5 visits after the second and third doses. Visits include: Physical exam Blood and urine tests Optional oral swabs to collect saliva Participants will keep a diary of their temperature and symptoms for 3 days after each dose.
NCT03049488
Background: Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a virus that infects the lungs and breathing passages. Healthy adults who are infected generally have mild cold symptoms for a week or two. But it can also be serious, especially for infants and older adults. It can be spread by direct or indirect contact with respiratory secretions. Researchers want to study a new vaccine to prevent RSV. Objective: To see if a vaccine for RSV is safe and if it causes side effects. Eligibility: Healthy adults 18-50 years old Design: Volunteers were screened in a separate screening protocol. Subjects had 13 visits over 1 year. Some subjects received just vaccine. Some received vaccine mixed with alum adjuvant. All subjects received their dose by injection in the upper arm. They received up to two doses, one at the beginning of the study and another 12 weeks later. Subjects were monitored for 1 hour after injection and called to check on their safety 1 day after. Subjects recorded their temperature and side effects for 7 days after each vaccination. Subjects were provided with a thermometer to measure their temperature and a ruler to measure any changes if these occurred on their skin at the injection site. At all visits, subjects were checked for health changes or problems. They may have had blood drawn. At some visits, subjects had samples collected from their nose and mouth.
NCT03921879
This research study will test OT-82, which is an investigational ("research" or "experimental" ) drug. The study has two stages (Stage 1 and Stage 2). The purpose of Stage 1 is to determine the safety and tolerability and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or the maximum tested dose of OT-82 administered orally to participants. The purpose of Stage 2 is to determine the preliminary efficacy of OT-82 in relapsed or refractory lymphoma at the MTD or the maximum tested dose. Both parts of the study will also evaluate the pharmacokinetics (absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination) of OT-82. OT-82 treatment slowed the growth, reduced the size, or in some cases cured certain cancers in animal studies. It is hoped that participants with relapsed or refractory lymphoma treated with OT - 82 in this study will experience slowing tumor growth and/or reduction of tumor size.
