Part A and Part B was designed to provide long term data on durability of binocular video games treatment. The study consisted of two parts, Part A: randomized, single masked PoC study in children 4 to 7 years old at Screening, and Part B: open-label substudy in children 8 to 12 year old at Screening.
NCT00946712
This randomized phase III trial studies carboplatin and paclitaxel to compare how well they work with or without bevacizumab and/or cetuximab in treating patients with stage IV or non-small cell lung cancer that has returned after a period of improvement (recurrent). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, 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. Bevacizumab may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumor needs to grow. Cetuximab may also stop cancer cells from growing by binding and interfering with a protein on the surface of the tumor cell that is needed for tumor growth. It is not yet known whether giving carboplatin and paclitaxel are more effective with or without bevacizumab and/or cetuximab in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT00602459
This randomized phase II trial studies how well fludarabine (fludarabine phosphate) and rituximab with or without lenalidomide or cyclophosphamide work in treating patients with symptomatic chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may block cancer growth in different ways by targeting certain cells. Lenalidomide may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Giving fludarabine phosphate and rituximab together with lenalidomide or cyclophosphamide may be an effective treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
NCT03115567
This randomized, controlled, phase II clinical study is designed to assess the efficacy of preemptive treatment with topical steroids in preventing the papulopustular eruption induced by epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor (EGFRI) treatment in cancer patients. Participants will be followed up for 6 weeks of twice daily application of triamcinolone cream to the face, chest, and back.
NCT02600507

NCT04151251
While many interventions have targeted hospital staff to improve sleep, few have been successful, and often suffer from limited adherence to staff protocols. Given preliminary data that suggests that empowered patients are more likely to obtain better sleep and have objectively lower noise levels in their rooms, it is plausible that partnering directly with patients can mitigate sleep loss and improve health outcomes. Patients will be randomized to receive the I-SLEEP education and empowerment program and test the effectiveness of this program on patient sleep and health outcome in the hospital and post-discharge. The aim of the project is to reduce environmental, healthcare-related, and patient-related factors that disrupt sleep of hospitalized patients by use of patient education and empowerment intervention.
NCT05251038
This is a multicenter, non-randomized, open-label, phase Ib/II study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of sotorasib in combination with chemotherapy for patients with advanced KRAS p.G12C mutant pancreatic cancer with progression of disease after first line treatment. There will be a safety lead in to determine the safety and tolerability of the sotorasib in combination with standard chemotherapy. A Simon two-stage design will be employed to evaluate the efficacy of sotorasib in combination with standard of care second line chemotherapy.
NCT03764878
The objective of this study is to evaluate functional MRI as a tool to study placental transfer of oxygen and nutrients during the third trimester of pregnancy in obese women, women with pregestational diabetes and healthy low risk women without these conditions (controls). The investigators hypothesize that altered placental function, including diminished placental oxygenation and enhanced placental transport of lipids and metabolites will be seen in obese and pregestational diabetics as compared to controls.

NCT05580640
For patients with a history of knee surgery, especially knee arthroplasty, the persistence of abnormal gait kinematics is a frequently encountered issue that can hinder their ability to return to normal daily living. Muscular imbalances and leg length discrepancy (LLD) following knee arthroplasty can impact a patient's ability to return to a normal gait pattern. In a study of 98 patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty, leg lengthening on the side of the operative knee was reported in 83% of patients as determined by comparing pre- and postoperative leg-length radiographs (Lang JE et al; J. Arthroplasty. 2012;27(3):341-346). LLD can lead to compensations in surrounding joints, muscles, and myofascial structures. Compensatory musculoskeletal changes, including changes in pelvic tilt and curvature of the lumbar spine can alter gait mechanics, lead to mechanical low back pain, and increase the risk of degenerative disc disease (Sheha EDM et al; J. Bone and Joint Surgery, Inc. 2018;6(8)(e6)). In addition, neurologic compensations can occur and include changes in muscular timing and muscular activation patterns. The mainstay of gait rehabilitation following knee surgery is physical therapy (PT) (O'Connor DP et al; J Orthop Sports Phys Ther. 2001;31(7):340-352), where LLD can be addressed with heel lift therapy. The use of Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) to address chronic compensatory musculoskeletal changes following knee surgery in order to improve gait has not been extensively studied. Both OMT and PT have been shown to improve gait imbalances in a variety of neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and Prader-Willi syndrome. Previous studies of these neurologic conditions have demonstrated increases in walking velocity, step length, stride length and range of motion of the lower extremities following OMT. It remains to be determined whether OMT can improve gait pattern abnormalities caused by compensatory musculoskeletal patterns that persistent after traditional postoperative knee rehabilitation. The purpose of this study is to determine if OMT of chronic, compensatory, musculoskeletal issues associated with knee surgery improves gait parameters. In addition to providing objective parameters to assess and validate OMT, future patients recovering from knee surgery might benefit from OMT
NCT04745351
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether remdesivir (RDV, GS-5734™) reduces the composite risk of death or invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) through Day 29 in participants with severely reduced kidney function who are hospitalized for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

NCT04077021
CCW702 is an investigational immunotherapy for prostate cancer. This is a two-part, first-in-human study to assess the safety and tolerability of CCW702 administered subcutaneously to patients with metastatic, castration resistant prostate cancer. Part I is divided in to two subparts, in both subparts patients will receive ascending dosages of CCW702 with the goal to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CCW702 and efficacious regimen. Part Ia will explore every other other day dosing (QOD); Part Ib will explore weekly dosing (Q7D). In part II of the study, patients will be given the recommended part/phase 2 dose (RP2D) Q7D. The study will also assess the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of CCW702.

This study is designed to investigate the ability of patients with asthma to properly use a new multi-dose dry powder inhaler (MDDPI) device in a real-life situation.
NCT01924455
Despite effective ART that can suppress both HIV and HBV, HBV-related liver disease remains a significant co-morbidity in this population. Little is known about the histologic spectrum of liver disease, the significance of complete vs. incomplete HBV suppression, the utility of novel virologic and serum markers of disease severity, and the long-term renal and bone effects of TDF-based therapy. This proposal will address these important questions and impact the science and health of those coinfected with HBV-HIV.
NCT03028831
Alaska native people (AN) have the highest recorded incidence and death rate from colon cancer in the world (\>90:100,000). We hypothesize that the AN, despite their high consumption of anti-inflammatory and antineoplastic n-3 fish oils, are at increased risk of colon cancer because of colonic butyrate deficiency resulting from their remarkably low consumption of fiber-containing foods. We hypothesize that fiber supplementation of their usual diet will result in a bloom of butyrate producing microbes in the colon, resulting in increased butyrate production, which will suppress their high microbial secondary bile acid production, antagonize the actions of other food (smoked fish) and environmental carcinogens (tobacco, alcohol), and interact with the high circulating levels of n-3 fish oils to suppress colonic inflammation and cancer risk. In order to investigate this, we will conduct a randomized double-blinded 4-week clinical trial in up to 100 randomizable healthy, middle-aged AN undergoing screening colonoscopy, with the objective of obtaining 60 completed interventions. The interventions will consist of either a high-dose soluble fiber supplement given as a drink, together with their usual diet which currently contains about 15g total fiber/d, or to a control digestible starch drink plus their usual diet. The primary endpoint will be a clinically significant reduction in Ki67 proliferative colonic mucosal biomarkers of cancer risk. Microbiome and metabolome mechanisms responsible for the anticipated changes in mucosal biomarkers will also be investigated. Our results in extreme risk AN will be further evaluated by comparison to similar measurements previously made in minimal risk rural Africans and intermediate risk African Americans. Our results will be used to provide the scientific basis for a definitive large-scale high-fiber supplementation study (to achieve \>50g total fiber/d) to suppress adenomatous polyp recurrence following colonoscopy.
