NCT04590248
This Phase 2b study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adavosertib, an inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase WEE1, in subjects with recurrent or persistent uterine serous carcinoma (USC) who have previously received at least 1 prior platinum-based chemotherapy regimen for the management of USC.
NCT00968747
The purpose of this study is to examine how acute nutritional challenges affect levels of several proteins involved in metabolism. These proteins will be measured in blood and fat tissue. This study will have several aims. One aim is to examine the effect of 72 hours of fasting on fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF-21) levels. Participants will spend 3 days and nights in the Clinical Research Center at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, MA. Daily blood samples will be taken. Two fat samples will be taken prior to and at the end of the fast. A subset of participants will also have two MRIs, one prior to and one at the end of the fast. We will study healthy adults and obese adults with liver-biopsy-diagnosed non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). THIS STUDY ARM IS CURRENTLY NOT RECRUITING Another aim is to examine the effect of low-calorie diet on FGF-21 levels. Subjects will follow a hypocaloric diet that will be designed to achieve 3-5% weight loss. We will enroll participants with liver-biopsy-diagnosed non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Participants will report weekly to the Clinical Research Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center for weight measurements. Blood will be drawn before and after the weight loss. Participants will also have an MRI before and after the weight loss. THIS ARM IS CURRENTLY NOT RECRUITING Another aim of the study is to examine the effect of acute ingestion of glucose, fructose, and other sugars on serum FGF21 levels. Subjects in this study will be lean volunteers and individuals with metabolic syndrome. THIS ARM IS CURRENTLY RECRUITING
NCT04343898
Multicenter observational/registry study of the clinical features and outcomes of critically ill patients with COVID-19.
NCT04294004
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of KUR-113 Bone Graft (TGplPTH1-34 in fibrin) compared to local autograft for the treatment of Degenerative Disk Disease (DDD).
NCT00688246
RATIONALE: Learning about the effect of exemestane on bone mineral density in postmenopausal women at increased risk of breast cancer may help plan treatment, decrease the risk of broken bones, and help patients live more comfortably. PURPOSE: This research study is measuring bone mineral density in postmenopausal women at increased risk of developing breast cancer who are receiving exemestane on clinical trial CAN-NCIC-MAP3.
NCT05976659
This project aims to explore the feasibility and effects of a symptom-specific, brain-circuit-based, home-based neuromodulation therapy for addressing mood and memory symptoms in older adults with major depressive disorder (MDD) in the context of dementia.
NCT05074121
The objective of this study is to determine whether oral NAC is effective at attenuating COVID-19 disease symptom severity and duration of symptoms.
NCT04231318
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo controlled trial to compare the safety and effectiveness of a single injection of Cingal® to a single injection of Triamcinolone Hexacetonide (TH) to achieve pain relief and other symptoms of osteoarthritis of the knee.
NCT04126317
The primary objectives of the study are to determine the safety of high-dose aflibercept (hereafter referred to as HD) and to determine if HD provides greater intraocular pharmacodynamic (PD) effect and/or longer duration of action compared to intravitreal aflibercept injection (hereafter referred to as IAI).
NCT04881448
This study is intended to investigate the usefulness of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) slopes derived from retrospective routine clinical practice data, compare those retrospective slopes with those generated in a prospective fashion and successively identify rapidly progressing chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients.
NCT01583218
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether extended prophylaxis with oral betrixaban can prevent blood clots in the leg and lung that sometime occur in patients hospitalized for an acute medical illness and to compare these results with standard of care enoxaparin. The safety of betrixaban will also be studied.
NCT00352079
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as BCG, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Gefitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving BCG together with gefitinib may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether BCG is more effective with or without gefitinib in treating bladder cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying BCG and gefitinib to see how well they work compared to BCG alone in treating patients with high-risk bladder cancer.
NCT00305812
RATIONALE: Lenalidomide may stop the growth of multiple myeloma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. It may also stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving lenalidomide together with melphalan may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with melphalan and to see how well they work in treating patients with multiple myeloma.
NCT00053781
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of perifosine in treating patients who have metastatic or recurrent malignant melanoma.
NCT00346320
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well radiation therapy works in treating patients with stage I or stage II non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.
NCT05919342
This is an international prospective, multicentre, unblinded, randomised-controlled trial. The primary aim is to assess a targeted screening strategy to detect undiagnosed heart failure in high-risk patients.
NCT00258388
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. OGX-011 may help docetaxel and prednisone kill more tumor cells by making tumor cells less resistant to the drugs. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving docetaxel and prednisone with or without OGX-011 works in treating patients with recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer that did not respond to previous hormone therapy.
NCT03654274
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of relugolix 40 milligram (mg) once daily co-administered with low-dose estradiol (E2) and norethindrone acetate (NETA) for up to 104 weeks on endometriosis-associated pain in participants who previously completed a 24-week treatment period in one of the parent studies (MVT-601-3101 or MVT-601-3102).
NCT04033354
This study is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, phase III clinical study to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of HLX10 + chemotherapy vs chemotherapy in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic squamous NSCLC who have not previously received systemic treatment. Eligible subjects in this study will be randomized to Arm A or Arm B at 2:1 ratio as follows: Arm A (HLX10 arm): HLX10 + chemotherapy (carboplatin nab paclitaxel) Arm B (placebo arm): Placebo + chemotherapy (carboplatin nab paclitaxel) The three stratification factors for randomization include: PD-L1 expression level (Tumor Proportion Scores \[TPS\]≥50%, 50%\>TPS≥1%, TPS\<1%), Asian population (yes or no), NSCLC stage (stage IIIB/IIIC or stage IV), and carboplatin AUC (5 or 6).
