NCT01067859
A placebo controlled, double-blind and randomized study to assess different doses of a new drug (BAY58-2667) given intravenously, to evaluate if it is safe and can help to improve the well-being of patients with acute decompensated heart failure.
NCT01583569
Complex Dynamic Systems in Mood Disorders is an observational, exploratory study of the relationship between voice samples, heart rate, respiration, movement, galvanic skin conductance, and sleep architecture with mood states in patients with Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, and healthy controls. The overall hypothesis is that nonlinear dynamic analyses will be able to reveal hidden patterns of complexity in each domain of voice, heart rate variability, movement, arousal, and sleep stage data.
NCT02138097
This protocol is for a series of descriptive analyses conducted within a cohort of patients using linagliptin, other dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, and other oral and non-insulin injected hypoglycemic medications between May 2011 and July 2012. Understanding 1) the existing utilization patterns for linagliptin, sitagliptin, saxagliptin, and other oral and non-insulin injected hypoglycemic agents and (2) the differences in utilization patterns between these agents will help with the design, analysis and interpretation of comparative effectiveness and safety studies of linagliptin, other DPP-4 inhibitors, and other agents. The study will provide an overview of existing utilization patterns for linagliptin, other dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, other oral and non-insulin injected hypoglycemic agents, in order to detect potential selective prescribing patterns that might lead to channeling bias.
NCT01254357
As part of Clinical Trials.Gov ID:NCT00253292 a psychometrically sound outcomes instrument was developed to study the outcomes of burn survivors in the 19-30 year old age group. This workgroup has come together to re-examine the data collected during the previous study and determine next steps in understanding the recovery for this population.
NCT01225211
The purpose of this study is to evaluate of the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of lumacaftor (VX-809) alone and when coadministered with ivacaftor (VX-770) in participants with cystic fibrosis, homozygous or heterozygous for the F508del-CFTR mutation.
NCT01963715
This is a Phase 1, first-in-human study to determine the recommended dose of IMGN289 in adult patients with advanced EGFR-positive tumors.
NCT01311817
This project is a pilot safety and immunogenicity study of transcutaneous vaccination with live attenuated Listeria monocytogenes BMB72 bacteria (actA/plcB-deleted, expressing influenza A nucleoprotein) and a cutaneous adjuvant, native purified cholera toxin. Transcutaneous vaccination is needle-less application of materials directly to the skin. Healthy adult volunteers (4 per group) will receive either: * Saline (placebo) * Cholera toxin adjuvant alone * L. monocytogenes BMB72 bacteria alone * L. monocytogenes BMB72 bacteria plus Cholera toxin adjuvant Vaccine solutions will be applied to the upper deltoid area under a standard Tegaderm dressing. Key primary endpoints include: safety as measured primarily by clinical findings (VS, cutaneous exams, and systemic reactions), and immune responses as measured by serological responses to L. monocytogenes, influenza A nucleoprotein, CT, and IFN gamma ELISPOT responses to listeriolysin and nucleoprotein peptides. Local skin immune responses will be evaluated by skin biopsy in subjects who agree to that (optional). The study will begin with 2 "roll-in" subjects receiving both L. monocytogenes and CT.
NCT00085709
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and daunorubicin, work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing and die. Monoclonal antibodies, such as gemtuzumab ozogamicin, can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Combining chemotherapy with gemtuzumab ozogamicin may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known whether induction therapy using cytarabine and daunorubicin is more effective with or without gemtuzumab ozogamicin or whether postconsolidation therapy using gemtuzumab ozogamicin is more effective than no additional therapy in treating de novo (first occurrence) acute myeloid leukemia. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing two different regimens of chemotherapy and monoclonal antibody therapy to see how well they work in treating patients with previously untreated de novo acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT02437201
Previous studies indicated high frequency of abuse in families and its consequences. Considering the importance of interventions such as educational interventions, in order to increase women's abilities to prevent abusive behaviors, the current research aims to determine the impact of an Liberty program on prevention of violence against women and propose solutions for less damages and consequences.
NCT00660179
The AC-055-302/SERAPHIN study will be an event-driven Phase III study, comparing two different doses of macitentan (ACT-064992) (3 and 10 mg) vs placebo in patients with symptomatic PAH. The main study objective is to demonstrate that macitentan (ACT-064992) prolongs time to the first morbidity or mortality event, and to evaluate the benefit/risk profile of macitentan (ACT-064992) in the treatment of patients with symptomatic PAH.
NCT00323271
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a brief psychological intervention, cognitive-behavior therapy, for the management of persistent pain associated with Multiple Sclerosis.
NCT00403377
RATIONALE: Understanding why sunbathers use or don't use sunless tanning products may help doctors plan effective ways to prevent skin cancer caused by sunbathing. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying attitudes about the use of sunless tanning products and how well sunless tanning products work as a substitute for sunbathing in healthy participants.
NCT01493557
This is a prospective and open label study that aims to enroll approximately 1200 patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) not previously treated with Pradaxa® and free of gastrointestinal symptoms (GIS) for at least 2 weeks prior to enrolment. Approximately 125 sites in North America will be recruited. Patients who report GIS during the 3 month treatment period will be randomized to one of two management strategies, and data documenting the intensity and duration of the GIS will be collected.
NCT01071265
Main Research Questions: 1. Is a large trial of patients undergoing heart surgery comparing a simple procedure of temporarily stopping blood flow to the leg with a blood pressure cuff (called remote ischemic preconditioning) to a sham procedure possible? 2. Does the remote ischemic preconditioning procedure before heart surgery help protect the heart and kidneys? What is Being Studied: A simple procedure known as remote ischemic preconditioning. The procedure is performed by inflating a pressurized cuff the thigh to temporarily stop blood flow to the arm or leg. This procedure causes the body to have a stress response that, at the cellular level, may protect major organs like the heart and kidney from the damage caused to them by the much larger stress of cardiac surgery. Reducing this damage may improve patient's recovery after surgery and help them live longer. Why is this study important?: This research is important because up to 1 in every 20 patients that undergo heart surgery die before even leaving hospital. Preventing heart and kidney damage at the time of surgery with remote ischemic preconditioning may reduce patient deaths.
