NCT05554627
This is an open-label, parallel-group, randomized clinical trial of up to 6 months treatment of adjunctive intranasal (IN) esketamine (ESK) vs. adjunctive aripiprazole (ARI) in Veterans with unipolar Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD). This study will assess the efficacy, safety, and acceptability of adjunctive IN ESK in comparison to ARI, one of the best studied and most widely used adjunctive therapies for TRD. The primary hypothesis is that participants receiving adjunctive IN ESK will be significantly more likely to achieve remission after six weeks of treatment as compared to those who receive adjunctive ARI. Depressive symptoms will be assessed by central raters (CR), blinded to treatment assignment, using the clinician rated version of the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (QIDS-C16), a well-validated tool that is commonly used and is easily translated across other depression inventory scales. The study is powered to detect an absolute difference in remission rates of 10%, or larger, at 6 weeks. Additional outcomes of interest include symptom reduction across 6 months of randomized therapy, side effects and other tolerability indices, attrition rates and measures of quality of life and cost-effectiveness.
NCT00756262
The use of LGG will be associated with elimination of VRE colonization. The primary comparison will be VRE elimination rates among those patients that receive LGG compared to those that receive placebo. The primary endpoint will be the proportion of patients with VRE at one week after cessation of administration of study medication or placebo. The investigators assume that the placebo group will have very little spontaneous elimination of VRE and that the LGG group will be more likely to have eliminated VRE colonization at the end of one week.
NCT01004978
This randomized phase III trial studies chemoembolization and sorafenib tosylate to see how well they work compared with chemoembolization alone in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, mitomycin, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Chemoembolization kills tumor cells by carrying drugs directly into blood vessels near the tumor and then blocking the blood flow to allow a higher concentration of the drug to reach the tumor for a longer period of time. Kinase inhibitors, such as sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. It is not yet known whether giving chemoembolization together with sorafenib tosylate is more effective than chemoembolization alone in treating patients with liver cancer.
NCT04700722
The Synuclein-One Study will be evaluating α-synuclein in patients with Parkinson's disease, Multiple System Atrophy, Dementia with Lewy bodies and Pure Autonomic Failure.

NCT04322708
This is a Phase 2/3, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of lirentelimab (AK002) given monthly for 6 doses in adult and adolescent patients with active eosinophilic esophagitis. Subjects who complete the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment may have the option to receive 6 doses of open-label lirentelimab (AK002) through the OLE Period of the study.
NCT04244552
ATRC-101-A01 is a Phase 1b, open-label dose escalation and expansion trial of ATRC-101, an engineered fully human immunoglobulin G, subclass 1 (IgG1) antibody derived from a naturally occurring human antibody. The safety, tolerability, PK, and biological activity of ATRC-101 will be characterized when administered every two weeks (Q2W) or every 3 weeks (Q3W) as a monotherapy or in combination with other anticancer agents.
NCT03562845
The trial is an observational, multi-center study to determine if a new blood test (Immunobiogram®) done after renal transplant can help predict how well the immune system is working and responding to a new kidney. These blood tests could, in the future, potentially guide how doctors manage patient's anti-rejection medication.
NCT01561391
This trial is conducted in North America. The aim of this trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of activated recombinant human factor VII in patients with haemophilia A or B undergoing major surgical procedures.
NCT02008357
The purpose of this study is to test whether an investigational drug called solanezumab can slow the progression of memory problems associated with brain amyloid (protein that forms plaques in the brains of people with Alzheimer Disease \[AD\]).
NCT05066165
This study will be conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, cellular kinetics (CK), activity, and pharmacodynamics (PD) of NTLA-5001 in participants with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).
NCT00775463
This study will evaluate the effect of treprostinil diethanolamine (UT-15C) sustained release tablets(compared to placebo) on digital ulcers in patients with scleroderma. Treprostinil diethanolamine is an analog of prostacyclin. Prostacyclin is a naturally occuring substance produced by the cells of blood vessels that inhibits platelet aggregation, induces vasodilation, and suppresses smooth muscle proliferation. Improvement in blood flow in lower limbs and fingers would be anticipated to result in a reduction in ischemic pain, Raynaud's phenomenon and promote healing of digital ulcers and other ischemic wounds.
NCT03337620
This is a double blind placebo-controlled study which will evaluate the efficacy of bupivacaine compared to saline, delivered by the Tx360® device to the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG), to treat chronic migraine headache. The Tx360® is a nasal applicator which is cleared through the FDA for transnasal medication delivery, including delivery to the SPG. The SPG has been implicated in a variety of cephalalgias. It is critical to the success of this intervention that the blocking agent be accurately delivered to this area as it is the only non-bony access to the pterygopalatine fossa (PPF). Subjects meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria will receive 12 intranasal treatments to the SPG over a period of 4 weeks with follow-up monthly for an additional 3 months post-treatment.
NCT00225797
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of oxymorphone extended release in non-cancer patients with chronic low back pain.
NCT03460704
The primary objective of the trial was to investigate the effect of the use of inhaled colistimethate sodium (CMS), administered twice a day (b.i.d.) via a specific nebulizer for 12 months, compared to placebo in subjects with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB) chronically infected with P. aeruginosa on the annualised frequency of pulmonary exacerbations.
NCT00471601

NCT03674112
This is a Phase II, randomized, multicentre, multinational, open-label, cross-over study in adult patients who have completed neoadjuvant chemotherapy with neoadjuvant pertuzumab and trastuzumab and have undergone surgical treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive early breast cancer. The study will consist of two adjuvant treatment periods: a treatment cross-over period and a treatment continuation period. It will evaluate participant-reported preference for a subcutaneously administered fixed-dose combination formulation (FDC SC) of pertuzumab and trastuzumab compared with intravenously (IV) administered pertuzumab and trastuzumab formulations. The study will also evaluate participant-reported satisfaction with pertuzumab and trastuzumab FDC SC and health-related quality of life outcomes; healthcare professionals' perceptions of time/resource use and convenience of pertuzumab and trastuzumab FDC SC compared with pertuzumab and trastuzumab IV formulations; as well as the safety and efficacy of each study regimen.
NCT04750369
This study is to evaluate of the accuracy of biomarkers (i.e. circulating endothelial and immune activation markers) that indicate progression to severe disease in patients with suspected COVID-19 in the Emergency Department. It is a prospective observational study of patients presenting to emergency departments with a clinical suspicion of COVID19. All participants will have plasma samples collected for biomarker analysis, and will be tested for SARS-CoV-2 infection with a nasopharyngeal swab. Participants will be managed according to the best local practices.
NCT04616365
In the current practice of lung transplantation, transplants are performed on a 24/7 schedule with a significant amount of procedures occurring overnight in order to minimize organ ischemic time. However, transplantation during the day time may lead to several advantages related to patient safety, including the presence of rested staff performing optimally, larger number of in-house professionals for emergency situations, and professional well-being. Advances and refinements in preservation practices have evolved to show that extended periods of preservation can be achieved without compromising outcome. Based on this, it is hypothesized that the avoidance of nighttime lung transplantation through prolonged pulmonary preservation will lead to at least similar patient outcomes compared to the current practice of 24/7 transplantation. During the period of this study, overnight transplants will be moved to a later start time (earliest 6AM). If lungs meet criteria for direct transplantation, they will be preserved with cold static preservation at 10°C within a special refrigerator. The maximum preservation time from donor cold flush to recipient anesthesia start time will be 12 hours.
