NCT02058160
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the superiority of the insulin glargine/lixisenatide fixed ratio combination (FRC) to insulin glargine in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) change from baseline to Week 30. Secondary Objective: To compare the overall efficacy and safety of insulin glargine/lixisenatide FRC to insulin glargine (with or without metformin) over a 30 week treatment period in participants with type 2 diabetes.
NCT02346734
The primary objective of this study will be to assess the feasibility and patient acceptance of a Home Automated Telemanagement (HAT) system in multiple sclerosis patients. Our hypothesis is that home telemanagement will be effective and useful in the rehabilitation of multiple sclerosis patients. Specifically, the investigators hypothesize that home telemanagement using a daily exercise diary, monitoring of compliance with a tailored exercise program and regular assessment of strength and motor functions will: 1. Be feasible and acceptable in patients with multiple sclerosis 2. Improve patient compliance with home exercise program 3. Increase patient mobility and motor functions 4. Be a feasible and effective mechanism for affecting multiple sclerosis patient self-efficacy 5. Improve quality of life
NCT01841892
Methadone is effective for heroin addiction, but many methadone patients continue to use cocaine. High magnitude and long-duration voucher-based abstinence reinforcement, in which participants receive vouchers exchangeable for goods and services contingent on providing drug-free biological samples, is one of the most effective treatments for drug addiction and can maintain cocaine abstinence over extended periods of time. Our research on a model Therapeutic Workplace has shown that employment-based abstinence reinforcement, in which participants must provide drug-free urine samples to access the workplace and maintain maximum pay, can maintain cocaine abstinence and reduce drug-related HIV risk behaviors over extended time periods. Our next challenge is to disseminate employment-based reinforcement for the treatment of drug addiction. The investigators propose to develop, manualize, and pilot test a community-friendly Therapeutic Workplace intervention that can be implemented widely throughout the US and elsewhere. Methadone patients who use injection or crack cocaine during methadone treatment will be invited to participate (N = 58) and randomly assigned to one of two groups: Usual Care (control) group or Community Therapeutic Workplace group. As in our prior implementations of the Therapeutic Workplace intervention, Community Therapeutic Workplace participants will enroll in Phase 1 to initiate drug abstinence and acquire job skills. Participants who initiate abstinence and acquire job skills in Phase 1 will be hired into community workplaces with collaborating employers in Phase 2. During Phase 2, employment-based abstinence reinforcement contingencies will be implemented using procedures for workplace drug and alcohol testing overseen by the US Department of Transportation. Using this system, a national provider of Drug-Free Workplace Services will arrange random drug testing and employment-based abstinence reinforcement contingencies in which employees will be required to remain drug-free to maintain employment. The investigators hypothesize that participants in the Community Therapeutic Workplace group will provide more drug-free samples, and engage in fewer HIV-risk behaviors than participants in the Usual Care group. The study will provide vital information on the acceptability of the intervention to participants and employers, and provide preliminary data on the effectiveness of the investigators procedures to maintain abstinence and promote employment.
NCT01222715
This randomized phase II trial studies how well vinorelbine tartrate and cyclophosphamide work in combination with bevacizumab or temsirolimus in treating patients with recurrent or refractory rhabdomyosarcoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vinorelbine tartrate and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of rhabdomyosarcoma by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective when given together with bevacizumab or temsirolimus in treating rhabdomyosarcoma.
NCT01342926
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of GSK933776 in the treatment of geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration.
NCT01928771
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Benralizumab reduces the number of asthma exacerbations in patients who remain uncontrolled on high doses of ICS-LABA.
NCT02359045
This study is a randomized, open-label, cross-over study in healthy subjects performed at a single study center. The study is divided into two parts, Part 1 and Part 2. The purpose of the study is to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of three different prototype capsule formulations (omega-3-carboxylic acids test formulations) with Epanova® capsules 1000 mg under fasted conditions in Part 1 and under fed conditions in Part 2. The results will be used as basis for choice of formulation for further pharmaceutical development.
NCT00094172
Patients who have been diagnosed with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) often develop problems related to the central nervous system, which controls the nerves in the body. Some of these patients may later be diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS), a progressive disease of the nervous system. The purpose of this study is to determine if the drug atorvastatin is helpful to CIS patients. Study hypothesis: Early intervention with atorvastatin in patients with CIS will result in a state of immunological tolerance.
NCT00829829
The purpose of this clinical research study was to determine the safety and effectiveness of an experimental drug called rilonacept in subjects with gout who are beginning allopurinol treatment for gout. Subjects will participate in this study for approximately 22 weeks. Rilonacept is being studied for use in preventing allopurinol-induced gout flares.
NCT01694199
Multicenter, randomized, controlled, double-blind study to evaluate the use of 3 days of pulsed radiofrequency energy (PRFE) to treat pain after bunionectomy surgery.
NCT00610363
This was a clinical research study to determine the safety and effectiveness of an experimental drug called rilonacept in participants with gout who were beginning another additional treatment. Participants participated in this study for approximately 24 weeks. Rilonacept was being studied for use in preventing gout attacks in participants who had gout.
NCT01393626
This study investigates safety and efficacy of CP-690,550 in adult patients with moderate to severe Crohn's disease. The study hypothesis is that at least one dose of the tested drug is more effective than placebo (inactive drug).
NCT01232491
This trial is conducted in Europe, and North and South America. The aim of this trial is to investigate if a dietary intervention has an effect on weight when initiating insulin treatment in subjects with type 2 diabetes currently treated with oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs).
NCT02441569
This trial examines the effectiveness of training pediatric primary care providers (nurse practitioners, doctors) to use of strategies that enhance family/youth empowerment and engagement during office visits for children with mild to moderate problems with anxiety. Children coming for routine care at one clinic are screened for anxiety symptoms and seen by either a specially trained provider or one of the clinic's other regular staff members.
NCT00956670
This clinical trial studies lymphedema after surgery in patients with endometrial cancer, cervical cancer, or vulvar cancer. Collecting information over time about how often lymphedema occurs in patients undergoing surgery and lymphadenectomy for endometrial cancer, cervical cancer, and vulvar cancer may help doctors learn more about the disease and plan the best treatment.
