NCT02691325
GSK2269557 is a potent and highly selective inhaled Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase delta inhibitor being developed as an anti-inflammatory and anti-infective agent for the treatment of inflammatory airway diseases. The study will be conducted at a single centre and in 3 Parts. The aim of Part A and B of the study are to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) single and repeat doses of a new formulation of GSK2269557 administered via the ELLIPTA dry powder inhaler (DPI) to healthy subjects. This is the first study in which GSK2269557 will be administered via the ELLIPTA DPI. Part C of the study will investigate the proportion of the systemic exposure that post inhalation is due to the swallowed fraction of the inhaled dose. Part C will also be conducted using the ELLIPTA device and magnesium stearate formulation. Part A will be conducted first. Part B and Part C may be run sequentially or in parallel. Part A is a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, single dose, dose escalating incomplete block 2-period crossover study in healthy subjects. Subjects will be randomized to receive either one dose strength of GSK2269557 and placebo utilizing placebo replacement, or will receive both active dose strengths. Part B is a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, repeat dose study in healthy Subjects. Subjects will be randomized to receive either repeat doses of GSK2269557 or placebo for 10 days. Part C is a, randomized, open-label, crossover design to assess the systemic exposure of single doses of GSK2269557 administered via the ELLIPTA DPI to healthy subjects, with and without ingestion of activated charcoal. ELLIPTA is the registered trademark of GlaxoSmithKline groups of companies.

NCT01944657
A. Introduction to the Problem This field experiment is intended to explore whether supplemental transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is more effective than standard medication mono-therapy for the treatment of major depressive disorder. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is now included in the practice guidelines of the American Psychiatric Association for the treatment of major depression. B. Importance of the Area of Study The safety, efficacy and value of TMS treatment has been established through the four-phase FDA approval process. The evidence of TMS safety and efficacy derives from multiple, peer reviewed, double-blind, randomized, control trials (RCT) with sham control as well as strict enrollment and methodological requirements. TMS is now used in actual clinical practice and there is an opportunity to extend laboratory research and typical, highly controlled field settings to applied settings. This study is designed to gather data on safety, efficacy and utility of TMS as it is used in clinical practice. C. Need for Additional Research Efficacy and safety of these interventions have been scientifically established and meta-analyses of these studies underscore the efficacy and safety of two treatment interventions to be employed in this study: 1) standard medication monotherapy and 2) standard medication therapy supplemented with TMS. However, many authors conclude that depression can be difficult to treat and there is an ongoing need for additional research. Depression remains a major public health problem.
NCT01482390
This randomized, double-blind, multi-center, parallel-group study will evaluate the sustained virologic response and the safety of mericitabine (RO5024048) (MCB) in combination with telaprevir (TVR) and peginterferon Alfa-2a (PEG-IFN) / ribavirin (RBV) in participants with chronic Hepatitis C infection.
NCT01971255
Background: \- Researchers want to know if a certain type of antibody in the blood affects whether people get influenza (the flu). They will study 2 different groups with different levels of anti-HA antibodies and expose them to the flu virus. They will study how the flu develops in a healthy person. This may lead to future studies to develop new vaccines and treatments for the flu. Objective: \- To study how people can be protected from flu infection. Eligibility: \- Healthy volunteers 18 to 50 years of age. Design: * Participants will be screened through the use of a medical history, physical exam, and laboratory tests. * Groups of 7 participants will stay in an isolation unit in a hospital for at least 9 days with no visitors. * Participants will be screened again upon admission. They will also have: * ECG: soft electrodes will be stuck to the skin. A machine will record the heart s electrical signals. * Echocardiogram: a small probe will be held to the chest to take pictures of the heart. * Lung tests: participants will blow into a machine. * They will also have nasal fluid collected. This will be done either with a swab or with a tube of water washing out the nose. This will be done once every day. * The flu virus will be sprayed into the participant s nose. This will be done only once. * Participants will complete a questionnaire on day 1 and twice a day after that for 14 days. * A medical team will watch participants 24 hours a day. They will go home after 2 days of negative flu tests. * Participants will have 4 follow-up visits over 8 weeks.
NCT01644331
The primary objective of this study is to compare the effects of oral Tolvaptan vs. placebo as an adjunct to fixed dose IV furosemide on dyspnea relief in patients with acute decompensated heart failure The primary hypothesis is that the addition of oral Tolvaptan to fixed dose furosemide will be more effective at relieving dyspnea than fixed dose furosemide alone

NCT01727999
Introduction: Ineffective platelet production has been proven to play a role in the etiology of Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP) in addition to increased platelet destruction. The second-generation thrombopoietin (TPO) mimetics have shown good efficacy in boosting platelet counts in the great majority of patients with chronic ITP in several clinical trials.1, 2 Nevertheless, about 20% of patients with ITP fail to respond to the TPO mimetic treatment. Those treatment-resistant patients are un-characterized and the reasons for the lack of response have not been studied. The identification of predictive blood biomarkers of patients' response to treatment will be useful in reducing both cost and potential side effects; and it will be of equal importance and interest to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the patients' heterogeneous responses to TPO mimetic treatment. Specific Aims: 1. To identify blood classifier genes which correlate with patients' response to TPO mimetic treatment. 2. To compare the blood gene expression changes in responders and non-responders after TPO mimetic treatment and explore the possible molecular mechanisms accounting for the non-responsiveness to the treatment.

NCT00283244
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether gemcitabine and erlotinib are more effective when given alone or together in treating non-small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying gemcitabine and erlotinib to compare how well they work when given alone or together as first-line therapy in treating older patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
