NCT00289302
Heart failure is a progressive disease that decreases the pumping action of the heart. This may cause a backup of fluid in the heart and may result in heart beat changes. When there are changes in the heart beat sometimes an implantable heart device is used to control the rate and rhythm of the heart beat. In certain heart failure cases, when the two lower chambers of the heart no longer beat in a coordinated manner, cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) may be prescribed. CRT is similar to a pacemaker. It is placed (implanted) under the skin of the upper chest. CRT is delivered as tiny electrical pulses to the right and left ventricles through three or four leads (soft insulated wires) that are inserted through the veins to the heart. People who have a dangerously fast heart beat, or whose heart is at risk of stopping beating, may be in need of an electronic device called an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). An ICD is implanted surgically just under the skin in the upper chest area and it sends a strong electrical impulse, or shock, to the heart to return it to a normal rhythm. If the heart is beating too slowly or at an abnormal rhythm, an ICD can also pace the heart to return the heart to its normal rhythm. The InSync ICD device can change the timing of when the left and right ventricles of the heart are paced to beat. The purpose of this study is to monitor the long-term performance of the InSync ICD Model 7272 and the InSync Marquis 7277 systems for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).
NCT00002168
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of two anti-HIV drug combinations when given to HIV-infected patients who have never been treated with anti-HIV drugs. One drug combination is stavudine (d4T) plus didanosine (ddI) plus Crixivan. The other combination is Retrovir (AZT) plus Epivir (3TC) plus Crixivan.
NCT00062894
The purpose of this study is to assess the blood pharmacokinetics in patients with previously untreated or relapsed follicular or transformed follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who have received a dosimetric dose of fission-derived iodine I 131 tositumomab.
NCT00294541
This trial is a follow-up companion study to Protocol ICA-17043-10, a Phase III, multi-center, efficacy and safety study of ICA-17043. This is an open-label extension study collecting safety data on the use of ICA-17043 in subjects with sickle cell disease (SCD) (e.g., HbSS, HbSC, HbSb0-thalassemia, HbSb+-thalassemia subjects). All subjects who have successfully completed ICA-17043-10 will, if deemed appropriate by their study Investigator and appropriate consent by subject is given, enroll in the ICA-17043-12 study (Study 12). Only patients who participated in ICA-17043-10 are eligible for this open label study
NCT00122850
This study will examine duloxetine compared with placebo and an active comparator in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder.
NCT00236132
The main goal of the pectus multicenter outcomes study is to document the utility of PEx repair in improving health and quality of life and to test the prevailing belief that the two predominant surgical procedures currently in use for PEx repair are essentially equivalent in terms of long-term outcomes. We believe the uncertainty about the impact of PEx on cardiopulmonary function is due to part to the fact that the previous studies have not measured the physiological parameters mostly likely affected by the defect. A protocol to test this was developed. Thus, we propose to use these measures as well as conventional output of progressive exercise test to examine cardiopulmonary function before and after surgical repair of PEx within the context of the original study.
NCT00090012
The purposes of this study are to determine: * The effectiveness of olanzapine as compared to quetiapine in treating and preventing the recurrence of a variety of symptoms of schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder in patients who are obese or overweight. * The safety of olanzapine as compared to quetiapine.
NCT00190736
A study to compare the effect of once-daily atomoxetine versus placebo in treating symptoms of ADHD in adults for up to 6 months.
NCT00185042
The purpose of this study is to learn if CS-505 is safe and effective for slowing down or possibly reversing the buildup of tissue, cells and fatty deposits (plaque) in the blood vessels of the heart (coronary artery atherosclerosis).
NCT00190957
Atomoxetine Treatment of Adults with ADHD and Comorbid Alcohol Abuse
NCT00231946
The study is designed to investigate the activity of the hormone drug leuprolide acetate in stabilizing cognitive function in mild-to-moderate AD patients.
NCT00306254
To study the safety and effectiveness of several doses of PD 0348292 compared to enoxaparin in preventing blood clots in the lungs or deep leg veins of patients after knee surgery
NCT00068861
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder affecting up to 10% of women. The primary symptoms of PCOS are menstrual irregularities, increased body and facial hair, acne, and infertility. This study will test a combination of medications in women with PCOS to determine which works best to overcome infertility.
NCT00490620
This is a proof of principal study to determine whether combination anti-viral therapy with Combivir impacts on hepatic biochemistry in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis
NCT00252993
This is a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, multicenter study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of DDP225 in patients with chronic functional vomiting. Male or female patients from 18 to 65 years of age with a functional vomiting history for at least 12 weeks in the preceding 12 months or cyclic vomiting history with at least 3 episodes in the previous 12 months are eligible. A total of 30 eligible patients with chronic functional vomiting will be enrolled. The total duration of study participation for an individual patient is approximately 15 weeks (105 days) from the initial screening visit to final study evaluations. The total duration of dosing with study medication (either DDP225 or placebo) is 12 weeks. Patients who satisfy all of the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria are eligible to enter the Treatment Period and will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups. After a patient is randomized and enters the Treatment Period, he/she will take the appropriate study medication once a day for 84 days and return to the clinic at two week intervals for a total of six visits during the Treatment Period. During the Treatment Period, patients will maintain a daily diary and complete questionnaires. One week after completing the 84-day Treatment Period, patients return to the clinic for final safety evaluations which include a physical examination, electrocardiogram, and clinical laboratory testing.
NCT00054678
The MyoCell™ implantation using the MyoCath™ delivery catheter system may have the potential to add a new dimension to the management of post-infarct deterioration of cardiac function in subjects with congestive heart failure. Based on pre-clinical studies, implantation of autologous skeletal myoblasts may lead to replacement of non-functioning myocardial scar with functioning muscle and improvement in myocardial performance. Preliminary data in human subjects suggest skeletal myoblast implantation at the time of CABG may lead to the same effects. In principal, myoblast implantation by catheter delivery may offer the same therapeutic benefit. The present clinical study is to be conducted primarily to evaluate the safety of MyoCell™ implantation using the MyoCath™ delivery system and secondarily to evaluate the effect on regional myocardial function post treatment.
