NCT01142986
This research is being done to evaluate the effectiveness of three different treatment strategies for helping subjects begin and adjust to methadone maintenance treatment at Addiction Treatment Services (ATS). Subjects will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment conditions: 1) Voucher-Based Stepped Care (VBSC) induction, 2) Low-threshold Stepped Care (LTSC) induction, or 3) Routine Stepped Care (RSC) induction. It is hypothesized that subjects in both the VBSC and LTSC condition will remain in treatment longer than subjects in the RSC condition. In addition, it is hypothesized that VBSC and LTSC subjects will have less drug-positive urine samples and will report less infectious disease risk behaviors than RSC subjects.

NCT01738386
Background: \- Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the second most common cause of early-onset dementia. Alzheimer s disease is the most common. Alzheimer s disease happens most often in the elderly, but FTD typically appears between 40 and 60 years of age. It also has a strong genetic component: Up to 40% of FTD cases are linked to positive family histories. Earlier diagnoses and genetic tests mean that people with FTD will spend more years in earlier stages of disease, aware that they have it. However, few studies have looked at the personal experiences or coping styles of people with FTD. Researchers want to interview people with FTD and their caregivers to understand their experiences with the disease. This information will help create better treatments and therapies for those affected by FTD. Objectives: \- To study the experiences of persons with FTD and their primary caregivers. Eligibility: * Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with FTD. * Primary caregivers (spouse or partner at least 18 years of age) of individuals who have been diagnosed with FTD. Design: * Before FTD participants are recruited, a pilot study will test the interview questions. This pilot study will be given to people with Alzheimer s disease and their caregivers. It will study how well people with dementia understand the interview questions. * FTD study participants will be recruited through dementia care centers. * All participants will have in-person interviews. These interviews will take up to 1 hour. * Participants with FTD will answer questions about their experience with the disease. They will talk about their mental abilities, challenges, and coping strategies. * Caregivers will answer questions about their experience in caring for someone with FTD. They will talk about their challenges and coping strategies. They will also talk about the person with FTD, and how aware they believe that the person is of the dementia symptoms. * All participants will receive a small gift card as compensation for their time. * No treatment will be provided as part of this study.

NCT01369953
Since 2007, the cost of sequencing a diploid human genome has fallen dramatically, from approximately $70 million to $20,000. As affordable sequencing platforms become more widely available, the advancement of biomedical science will draw increasingly on whole genome sequencing research requiring large cohorts of diverse populations. Key policy, ethical and legal implications of these developments will need to be understood in order to promote the efficacy and effectiveness of genomic research going forward. An overall aim of this project is to obtain feedback on the informed consent process from some of the earliest particpants in studies using whole genome sequencing. A more specific goal is to characterize the salient personal and public references accessed by participants around the time of the informed consent process. By highlighting trends in participants views about study participation around the time of the initial informed consent process, we aim to advance the development of an ethically and socially relevant vocabulary with which to negotiate future terms of use for personal sequence data in genomic research. Participants will be asked to complete a one-time, semi-structured telephone interview lasting approximately 45 minutes in the period 2-8 weeks following their initial informed consent session at the NIH. They will be recruited from two NIH protocols employing whole genome sequencing for distinct purposes. They The ClinSeqTM Study is a large-scale medical sequencing project investigating the causal role of genetics in cardiovascular disease enrolling both symptomatic and healthy individuals. The Whole Genome Medical Sequencing for Gene Discovery Study (WGMS) enrolls children and adults for full sequencing with the aim of discovering the genetic etiology of rare conditions.

NCT01596218
This research study is a Phase I clinical trial. Phase I clinical trials test the safety of an investigational drug. Phase I studies also try to define the appropriate dose of the investigational drug to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that the drug is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it. It also means that the FDA has not approved brentuximab vedotin for the treatment of GVHD. Currently, corticosteroids are the standard/first line of treatment for people with GVHD. However, some patients do not achieve a good response with steroids and other experience flare-ups while tapering steroid treatment. Corticosteroid treatment has also led to a weakening of the immune system. For this reason, there have been increased attempts by researchers to find other options for the treatment of Graft vs. Host Disease. Brentuximab vedotin is a drug that is FDA approved for the treatment of certain types of cancers, like Hodgkin's lymphoma. Recent research studies have found increased levels of protein called CD30 in people with acute GVHD. Brentuximab vedotin is designed to target CD30. Researchers have never tried to target the CD30 molecule for the treatment of GVHD, but results from other research studies show that it could help slow the growth of your disease. In this research study, we are trying to determine the safest dose of brentuximab vedotin that can be given to patients with GVHD.
NCT00358449
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of intravenous mepolizumab in pediatric subjects with eosinophilic esophagitis.
NCT01758588
The purpose of this study is to look at the effectiveness of giving patients who have been newly diagnosed with untreated early stage primary myelofibrosis (PMF) a study drug called PEGINTRON (also known as pegylated interferon alfa 2b). This intervention will be compared to the widely employed "watch and wait" (best supportive care) approach for early stage PMF, in which patients are followed closely and treatment initiated only if the disease progresses.
NCT01748903
The purpose of this prospective registry is to collect real world, post-marketing data on the use of Stryker Target® 360,Target® 2D, and 2nd generation Target® Nano coils for the embolization of ruptured or unruptured intracranial saccular aneurysms. Up to 300 patients (150 in the TARGET 360°/Helical arm and 150 in the New NANO arm) presenting with intracranial aneurysms suitable for coil embolization will be enrolled at up to 20 sites. A post hoc analysis comparing Target® 360° and Target® 2D coil technical and clinical endpoints will be performed.
NCT01458067
The study consists of a pre-screening period to determine if the subject's tumor has PTEN deficiencies. Subjects then continue into the screening phase for Part 1, 2, or 3, as appropriate. In Part 1, subjects will then receive a single dose of 25 mg. After analysis of 24 hour pharmacokinetic (PK) samples, subjects may receive continuous dosing or receive a single modified dose. In Part 2, subjects will be enrolled and dose escalation will occur in a 3+3 design. Subjects will receive a single dose on Day 1, and then begin continuous daily dosing after collection of a 72-hour PK sample. Additional subjects may be enrolled at lower dose levels for assessment of pharmacodynamic response. In Part 3, up to two tumor-specific expansion cohorts will be enrolled and receive the MTD or BED as defined in Part 2. A minimum of 12 and a maximum of 20 evaluable subjects will be enrolled in each cohort. Interim monitoring for futility will be incorporated after response data from 12 subjects are available. In addition, up to 20 evaluable subjects will be enrolled into Part 3 -Signal-finding Expansion Cohort at the MTD or BED as defined in Part 2. All subjects in all parts/cohorts will receive daily dosing until withdrawal or unacceptable toxicity. All subjects in all parts/cohorts will receive daily dosing until withdrawal or unacceptable toxicity.
