NCT01751646
This is a 48 week randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled prospective cohort study of adolescents and young adults with HIV infection in the Adolescent Medicine Trials Network for HIV/AIDS Interventions (ATN) who are currently being treated with cART that includes tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) as one component of the regimen that includes at least three Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved antiretroviral (ARV) drugs for at least 180 days.
NCT01672866
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether SIM (formerly referred to as GS-6624) is effective at preventing the histologic progression of liver fibrosis and the clinical progression to cirrhosis in participants with NASH. It will consist of 2 phases: * Randomized Double-Blind Phase * Open-Label Phase (optional)
NCT01396148
Children and young adults with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) will be treated with sunitinib. The safety (including pharmacokinetics) and tolerability of sunitinib will be studied in these patients. In addition, tumor responses and overall survival will be assessed.
NCT02372578
The purpose of this study is to assess analgesic efficacy of ASP3662 relative to placebo in subjects with painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (PDPN) as well as assess the safety and tolerability of ASP3662 relative to placebo. The analgesic effect is evaluated by measuring percent responders, change in daily worst pain score, change in average daily pain score, Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) and Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGIC).
NCT01685138
A single-arm, open-label, two-stage multicenter, phase II study. Patients were pre-screened for ALK positive status. Treatment with LDK378 at 750 mg qd was continued until the patient experienced unacceptable toxicity that precluded further treatment, discontinued treatment at the discretion of the investigator or patient, started a new anticancer therapy and/or died. LDK378 was continued beyond RECIST defined progressive disease (PD) as assessed by the investigator, if in the judgment of the investigator, there was evidence of clinical benefit. Patients who discontinued the study medication in the absence of progression continued to be followed for tumor assessment until the time of PD as assessed by the investigator. Male and female patients aged 18 or over with ALK-rearranged non-small cell cancer (NSCLC) were screened for eligibility. Patients had to have received no prior crizotinib, and had to be chemotherapy-naïve or been pretreated with cytotoxic chemotherapy (up to three prior lines).
NCT00351390
Levels of amino-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) a hormone released from the heart in patients with heart failure (HF) are strongly prognostic of adverse events, such as hospitalization or death from HF. Therapies that are beneficial for HF (such as beta blockers or angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors) tend to lower levels of NT-proBNP in parallel with improvements in outcomes of patients so treated. Importantly, Nt-proBNP levels may identify a patient at high risk for adverse outcome from their HF, even in periods of apparent stability. It remains unclear, however, whether treating patients based on their NT-proBNP concentrations would be associated with better outcomes compared to standard HF therapy without measurement of NT-proBNP values. The goal of the PROTECT study is to evaluate whether treatment of patients with advanced and recently destabilized HF would benefit from NT-proBNP guided HF treatment, compared to standard HF therapy without such 'hormone guided' treatment.
NCT00109525
This observational study evaluated the performance of new lab tests in detecting candida species fungal infections in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants quickly and accurately. 19 NICHD Neonatal Research Network sites enrolled 1,500 infants with birth weights ≤1,000g; 100 of these infants later tested positive for candidiasis. Blood, urine, and lumbar puncture samples were collected whenever other specimens were obtained from participants for cultures. These samples are being tested using the new methods and compared with standard culture results. Surviving study subjects completed a neurodevelopmental evaluation at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT01410552
ISIS- ICD study has been designed to evaluate the impact of PARAD+ algorithm on inappropriate shocks, in a general population implanted for primary or secondary prevention with a dual or tri chamber device at one year follow-up
NCT02871427
This study seeks to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of nelotanserin for the treatment of visual hallucinations (VHs) and Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD) in subjects with Lewy body dementia (LBD).
NCT01054339
Assessment of the safety and efficacy of intramuscular (IM) administration of a recombinant adenoassociated virus (rAAV) alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) vector (rAAV1-CB-hAAT) in AAT-deficient adults at three dosage levels \[6.0 × 10e11, 1.9 × 10e12 and 6.0 × 10e12 vector genome particles (vg) per kg body weight\].

NCT01558791
This research study is designed to learn about Veterans' understanding of mild TBI (traumatic brain injury) and the VA TBI screening process. All OEF/OIF Veterans who come to one of the study-related clinics for TBI screening will be invited to participate. An educational handout on TBI will be given to half of the participants along with their TBI screening. The other half of the participants will have the usual TBI screening without the educational handout. Veterans enrolled in the study will be asked to answer a 5-10 minute research questionnaire. The questionnaire will ask: * About the individual: such as gender and branch of service * About what happened during the TBI screening: such as whether the Veteran had a chance to ask the provider any questions * About the Veteran's understanding of mild TBI: such as whether symptoms of mild TBI are long lasting Veterans who receive the educational handout will be asked specific questions about the handout and its information.
NCT03333824
The purpose of this study is to determine whether AZD1775 has any effect on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of three compounds (caffeine, omeprazole, and midazolam) that are probes for common drug-metabolizing enzymes (caffeine-CYP1A2, omeprazole-CYP2C19, midazolam-CYP3A). The study also seeks to determine the effect of AZD1775 on the QTc interval, which is a common measure of cardiac (heart) function.
NCT01223261
The purposes of this study were: 1) to compare mortality and postoperative morbidities in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants who underwent initial laparotomy or drainage for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) or isolated intestinal perforation (IP); 2) to determine the ability to distinguish NEC from IP preoperatively and the importance of this distinction on outcome measures; and 3) to evaluate the association between extent of intestinal disease determined at operation and outcome measures. All ELBW infants born at participating NRN centers were screened for the presence of NEC or IP that was thought by the pediatric surgeon and neonatologist to require surgical intervention. Data were collected enrolled infants, including: intraoperative findings recorded by the surgeon and specific post-operative complications. Neurodevelopmental examinations were conducted on surviving infants at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT01500434
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the PROMUS Element™ Everolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System for the treatment of patients with up to 2 de novo atherosclerotic coronary artery lesions. The lesions can be longer than average-sized.
NCT00626912
The PRET study aims at comparing two types of coils used in the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The first type made of platinum has been used for more than 15 years. The other, referred to as hydrocoil, containing in addition to platinum a polymer layer that expands when in contact with blood, has been in use since 2002. The hypothesis of the PRET study is that the newer hydrocoil will be more effective and yet as safe as the older platinum coil.
NCT00724503
This study is a randomized multi-center trial that will assess the effect of adding Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT), using SIR-Spheres microspheres®, to a standard chemotherapy regimen of FOLFOX as first line therapy in patients with non-resectable liver metastases from primary colorectal adenocarcinoma. Treatment with the biologic agent bevacizumab, if part of the standard of care at participating institutions, is allowed within this study at the discretion of the treating Investigator.
