NCT00434993
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) and a lesser condition that occurs prior to ARDS, Acute Lung Injury (ALI), are medical conditions that occur when there is severe inflammation and increased fluids (edema) in both lungs, making it hard for the lungs to function properly. Patients with these conditions require treatment that includes the use of a breathing machine (ventilator). The purpose of this study is to find out whether giving albuterol (a drug commonly used in asthmatics) or not giving albuterol to patients with ALI or ARDS makes a difference in how long it takes for a patient to be able to breath without the ventilator.
NCT00883129
Scleroderma is a rare, long-term autoimmune disease in which normal tissue is replaced with dense, thick fibrous tissue. Normally, the immune system helps defend the body against disease and infection. In people with scleroderma, the immune system triggers fibroblast cells to produce too much of the protein collagen. The extra collagen becomes deposited in the skin and organs, causing hardening and thickening that is similar to the scarring process. Although scleroderma most often affects the skin, it also can affect other parts of the body, including the lungs, and in its most severe forms scleroderma can be life-threatening. Scleroderma-related interstitial lung disease is one example of a life-threatening scleroderma condition. In people with symptomatic scleroderma-related interstitial lung disease, scarring occurs in the delicate lung tissue, compromising lung function. The purpose of this study is to determine whether people with symptomatic scleroderma-related interstitial lung disease experience more respiratory benefits from treatment with a 2-year course of mycophenolate mofetil or treatment with a 1-year course of oral cyclophosphamide.
NCT00399711
This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). This trial compares the changes in HbA1c after 26 weeks of repaglinide and metformin fixed dose combination tablet given as twice daily versus three times daily regimens or versus twice daily rosiglitazone and metformin fixed dose combination tablet in subjects with type 2 diabetes currently on monotherapy.
NCT00114413
The purpose of ICAC-01 is to determine whether an asthma treatment strategy that measures exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) to indicate disease progression is more effective in treating asthma symptoms when combined with existing asthma treatment guidelines than treatment using the guidelines alone.
NCT01205724
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety and pharmacokinetics (the determination of the concentration of the administered medication in blood over time) of NNC 0129-0000-1003 in previously treated subjects with severe haemophilia A.
NCT00035113
This study will examine whether the new investigational drug EPO906, given by intravenous infusion (IV directly into the vein), is effective in shrinking tumors and preventing the growth of cells that cause prostate cancer.
NCT01079234
This trial is conducted in Europe and in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of NN1250 (insulin degludec) in subjects with type 1 diabetes.
NCT01261767
This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this clinical trial is evaluate the safety and tolerability of anti-IL-20 in patients with psoriasis and to determine the preliminary efficacy in an expansion phase of this trial. This trial consists of 3 parts: A single dose (SD) dose-escalation phase for 16 weeks, a multiple dose (MD) dose-escalation phase for 22 weeks, and a MD expansion phase for 22 weeks. Initiation of the MD expansion phase will depend on results from the SD and MD dose-escalation phases and only if an acceptable safety profile is present. Subjects participating in the expansion phase are not allowed to have participated in the previous phases (SD and MD dose-escalation phases) of the trial.
NCT01476475
Primary Objective: * The purpose of this study was to compare insulin glargine/ lixisenatide fixed ratio combination (FRC) versus insulin glargine on glycemic control over 24 weeks, as evaluated by glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) reduction in type 2 diabetic participants treated with metformin. Secondary Objectives: * To compare insulin glargine/lixisenatide FRC versus insulin glargine over 24 weeks on: * Glycemic control in relation to a meal as evaluated by post-prandial plasma glucose and glucose excursions during a standardized meal test; * Percentage of participants reaching HbA1c \<7% or ≤6.5%; * 7-point Self-Monitored Plasma Glucose (SMPG) profile; * Body weight; * Insulin glargine dose * Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG); * Percentage of participants requiring rescue therapy during the 24-week open label treatment period; * To assess safety and tolerability of insulin glargine/lixisenatide FRC.
NCT00488319
The purpose of this open-label study is to evaluate the long-term (6-month) safety and tolerability of extended-release paliperidone, an atypical antipsychotic, given in flexible dosages to adolescents with schizophrenia.
NCT02276989
In a small, well-characterized sample of prescription opioid abusers (POAs) with chronic pain and on buprenorphine therapy, this study will investigate the utility and feasibility of two novel tracer compounds, and in combination with a standard marker (riboflavin), to monitor adherence to study drug prescription in the parent clinical trial.
NCT01848756
Hsp90 is a chemical in the body that is involved in the promotion of cancer. SNX-5422 is an experimental drug that blocks Hsp90
NCT00445718
This natural history study is collecting health information about infants with adrenal masses found on prenatal and/or neonatal imaging. Gathering information over time from imaging and laboratory tests of infants with adrenal masses may help doctors learn more about the disease and plan the best treatment.
NCT00966407
The AIMM Young study is a collaboration between Children's National Medical Center (CNMC) and colleges/universities nationwide--currently including Howard University (HU), East Carolina University (ECU), and University of Massachusetts, Amherst (U Mass). This study obtains a variety of baseline measures (such as serum biomarkers related to metabolic syndrome, anthropometrics, muscle strength, and fitness testing) along with genetic information from healthy college-age (18-35 years) young adults in efforts to identify phenotype-genotype associations that may predispose individuals to developing metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and/or related diseases such as obesity. We hypothesized that certain genetic variations will be protective against metabolic syndrome, while others will show a strong correlation with specific components of metabolic syndrome disease. We expect that the study of "pre-symptomatic," young individuals will facilitate the identification of genetic risk loci for metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. Younger populations typically have less confounding variables, and this facilitates normalizing of metabolic syndrome features and environment/lifestyle. Additionally, young subjects can provide more robust longitudinal data, and be recruited into subsequent interventions to reverse the trend towards metabolic syndrome, rather than the more difficult task of reversing type 2 diabetes in older populations. The data collected will be stratified according to gender, age, ethnicity, genotype, and other phenotypic measures to determine how these factors influence disease risk.
NCT01761162
The objective of the ProMRI Study is to demonstrate the clinical safety of the ProMRI Pacemaker System when used under specific MRI conditions.
