NCT01693978
The aim of this research is to assess whether Contingency Management is effective in improving treatment adherence in substance use disordered (SUD) patients with comorbid PTSD. Although Prolonged Exposure therapy (PE) is the gold standard treatment for PTSD, the few studies of this treatment in substance users have shown poor adherence. Contingency Management is a well-established approach that could be used to enhance adherence to PE. From a consented sample of 125 opioid-dependent and methadone-treated patients at Addiction Treatment Services, an intent-to-treat sample of 62 patients with co-occurring current PTSD will be offered PE. Half of the 62 participants will be randomly assigned to a Prolonged Exposure with Contingency Management (PE+CM) condition that provides monetary-based incentives for attending the PE therapy sessions. The comparison condition will be assigned to a Prolonged Exposure (PE) condition without the attendance incentives intervention. The PE sessions will be scheduled once per week for 12 weeks, with a 12-week follow-up. Groups will be compared primarily on adherence to the PE schedule, improvement in PTSD symptoms, and rates of drug use (urine specimens, self-reported use). The study's three primary aims are to 1) Evaluate the efficacy of adding voucher-based attendance incentives to PE for PTSD to increase adherence in SUD patients in a methadone treatment program; 2) Evaluate the efficacy of adding voucher-based attendance incentives to PE for PTSD to reduce PTSD symptoms in SUD patients; and 3) Evaluate the effect of PE for PTSD on rates of drug use in SUD patients.
NCT01323348
The purpose of this study is to assess whether glycemic control (assessed with HbA1c measurement) in individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes can be improved with a point-of-care measurement of HbA1c in the ophthalmologist's office combined with a personalized risk assessment for diabetic retinopathy and other complications of diabetes.
NCT00367133
The study involves the enrollment of patients over 18 years of age with diabetic macular edema(DME). Patients with one study eye will be randomly assigned (stratified by visual acuity and prior laser) with equal probability to one of the three treatment groups: 1. Laser photocoagulation 2. 1mg intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection 3. 4mg intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection For patients with two study eyes (both eyes eligible at the time of randomization), the right eye (stratified by visual acuity and prior laser) will be randomly assigned with equal probabilities to one of the three treatment groups listed above. The left eye will be assigned to the alternative treatment (laser or triamcinolone). If the left eye is assigned to triamcinolone, then the dose (1mg or 4 mg) will be randomly assigned to the left eye with equal probability (stratified by visual acuity and prior laser). The study drug, triamcinolone acetonide, has been manufactured as a sterile intravitreal injectable by Allergan. Study eyes assigned to an intravitreal triamcinolone injection will receive a dose of either 1mg or 4mg. There is no indication of which treatment regimen will be better. Patients enrolled into the study will be followed for three years and will have study visits every 4 months after receiving their assigned study treatment. In addition, standard of care post-treatment visits will be performed at 4 weeks after each intravitreal injection.
NCT01623323
This is an open-label, multicenter study designed to assess the safety of intranasal administration of 400 μg of fluticasone propionate twice a day delivered by the OptiNose device in subjects with chronic sinusitis with or without nasal polyps.

NCT01029730
The goal of this multi-center Phase II study is to add bortezomib to the highly active regimen of bendamustine and rituximab. In this study, bortezomib will be administered on a weekly schedule (Days 1, 8, 15) and will be added to bendamustine/rituximab given in 4-week cycles. This combination uses the standard bendamustine dosing schedule, and is more convenient than the 5-week regimen of these 3 drugs currently being studied.
NCT01399684

NCT01033734
This open-label study will assess the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics and safety of intravenous (iv) Tamiflu (oseltamivir) in 3 cohorts of children, aged 6-12, 3-5 and 1-2 years, with influenza infection. Patients will receive iv Tamiflu therapy for 5 days (10 doses). For patients whose conditions no longer merit continued iv dosing, therapy may be switched to oral Tamiflu to complete their prescribed course of treatment. If medically necessary, iv or oral therapy with Tamiflu may be continued for up to 5 additional days. Anticipated time on study treatment is 5 to 10 days.
NCT01575561

NCT02078440
The objective of this study is to evaluate the relative bioavailability, and the rate and extent of absorption of bromocriptine in male and female children and adolescent Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients, aged 10 to less than 18, under fed conditions. It is undetermined if the pharmacokinetic profile of bromocriptine-QR in type 2 diabetes children aged 10- to less than 18 years differs appreciably from that in healthy adults. Bromocriptine is extensively metabolized by the liver (namely CYP3A4). Studies in children have demonstrated little difference in clearance among children over 10 years of age compared to adults (Blanco et al, 2000). However, differences in blood volumes or other factors may impart differences that could affect the pharmacokinetic properties of bromocriptine-QR. Therefore, this study will assess the pharmacokinetics in children aged 10-to less than 18 years who have type 2 diabetes. After describing the profile of bromocriptine-quick release in this patient population, a follow on study will be conducted to evaluate its safety and efficacy in treating children and adolescents who have type 2 diabetes. The pharmacokinetic profile of bromocriptine will be determined following the administration of a single, weight-adjusted dose of CYCLOSET (bromocriptine mesylate) tablets. The study will be a single period, bioavailability study in 30 patients. The study duration will be 3 days.
NCT00000384
The purpose of this study is to compare 3 treatments for children with OCD: medication (sertraline, SER) alone vs OCD-specific therapy (Cognitive Behavior Therapy, CBT) vs medication plus therapy. Some patients will receive an inactive placebo (PBO) instead of medication and/or Educational Support (ES, non-psychological treatment) instead of therapy. One in 200 children suffer from OCD, but few receive appropriate treatment. Both CBT and medication seem to be effective, but their effectiveness, alone and in combination, has not been evaluated. There are 2 phases to this trial. In Phase I the child will receive 1 of the following 6 treatments for 12 weeks: 1) SER alone; 2) pill PBO alone; 3) CBT alone; 4) SER plus CBT; 5) SER plus ES; 6) pill PBO plus ES. If the child responds to treatment, he/she will go on to Phase II in which the treatment will be slowly reduced, then stopped (discontinued), over time to test the treatment's durability. The child will be evaluated at Weeks 1, 4, 8, 12 (Phase I treatment), and Weeks 16, 20, 24, and 28 (Phase II discontinuation) to see how effective and durable the treatment is in treating your child's OCD. A child may be eligible for this study if he/she: Has obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and is 8 - 16 years old.
NCT02647086
This is an open-label, single-sequence DDI study designed to examine the effects of dupilumab on the pharmacokinetics of selected cytochrome P450 substrates in adult patients with moderate to severe AD. The study consists of a screening period (day -35 to -2), study period 1 (day -1 to 7), study period 2 (day 8 to 50), and a follow-up period (day 51 to 135 \[end of study\]). Following completion of study period 2 (Day 50), patients will be given the option to enroll into the Open-Label Extension (OLE) study R668-AD-1225. Patients who decline will be followed for the next 12 weeks (Day 135).
