NCT00304031
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving radiation therapy together with temozolomide may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known which schedule of temozolomide when given together with radiation therapy is more effective in treating glioblastoma or gliosarcoma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying two different schedules of temozolomide to compare how well they work when given together with radiation therapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma or gliosarcoma.
NCT02066792
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of 50 mg of d-cycloserine in comparison to placebo (a pill containing no medication) for improving the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) in reducing symptoms associated with social anxiety disorder. In addition, the study will examine whether the effectiveness of d-cycloserine depends on the timing of the pill administration (i.e., 1- hour before the session or immediately after the session) as well as the success of the CBT therapy sessions. The investigators hypothesize that the tailored post-session DCS administration condition will outperform the other conditions (pre-session DCS, placebo, and non-tailored post-session DCS). This will be evidenced by short- and long-term improvements in social anxiety severity.
NCT03272204
This research study seeks to find if there is a connection between the presence of pubic hair and the type of bacteria that live in the vagina and bladder.
NCT02993861
The study is a prospective, multi-center, open-label clinical trial. Study's purpose is to characterize the pharmacokinetics and safety of four oral anti-epileptics drugs (levetiracetam, valproic acid \[divalproex sodium ER or immediate release formulation if inadequate enrollment}, topiramate, and oxcarbazepine) in a non-randomized sample of obese children and adolescents. The study's duration will be up to eleven days (up to seven days of screening and four days of pharmacokinetic sampling). Eligible participants ages 2 to 18 years will be identified through outpatient clinic schedules and inpatient admissions at each clinic site. Participants receiving at least one of the study drugs per local standard of care will have pharmacokinetic concentrations in plasma drawn according to the specific dosing schedule for each drug. Other study measures include demographics, BMI, waist/hip ratio, medical history, concomitant medication history, documentation of study drug oral intake, adverse effects, and physical examination. The sample size will include 24 participants for each anti-epileptic drug (total 96).
NCT02334397
Operative vaginal delivery (with forceps or vacuums) is frequently performed secondary to maternal exhaustion, which leads to an inability to push effectively; 40% of operative vaginal deliveries at Prentice are for maternal exhaustion. The risk of severe birth trauma is increased three to four fold with operative delivery. This randomized, controlled trial will compare rates of operative vaginal delivery and severe birth trauma in two groups of women: (1) an intervention group who will participate in the antepartum Total Control® fitness and education program modified for pregnancy; and (2) a control group. Women will be recruited and followed from the second trimester until 6 weeks postpartum; all will complete validated questionnaires regarding their (1) level of worry and knowledge about their birthing experience (2) pelvic floor symptoms and quality of life (3) sexual function (4) satisfaction with their birthing experience and (5) level of depressive symptoms at various time points during and after their pregnancy. Obstetrical data will also be collected.
NCT02908035
This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, dose escalation study to document the effects of adventitial delivery of temsirolimus (Torisel) after revascularization of lesions below the knee in symptomatic patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI).
NCT03219320
To evaluate the efficacy of multiple dose levels of NYX-2925 versus placebo in treating the neuropathic pain associated with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy.
NCT02277769
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to confirm the efficacy and safety of Dupilumab monotherapy in adults with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).
NCT01790243
The primary objective of the LEVANT 2 Extended Follow-up Post-Approval Study (PAS 1) is to evaluate the long-term performance of the Lutonix Drug Coated Balloon (DCB) versus Percutaneous Transluminal Balloon Angioplasty (PTA) in the treatment of stenosis or occlusion of the femoropopliteal arteries.
NCT03017196
This study is designed to answer the following questions: "Is the My Life, My Healthcare Discussion Aid feasible for use in primary care? Does it positively impact patient and healthcare teams' care experience and communication, while reducing patient treatment burden?" Through implementation of the My Life, My Healthcare Discussion Aid for patients with chronic conditions, the study team hypothesizes that it will be feasible to implement in routine primary care practice and positively impact patient and healthcare teams experience of chronic care, while reducing patient treatment burden.
NCT02685956
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of the Sentosa SA HSV1/2 Qualitative PCR Test. Precision of results and concordance of results with a reference assay will be evaluated.
NCT02903966
This study is the first experience with GSK2982772, a receptor-interacting protein-1 (RIP1) kinase inhibitor, in subjects with active ulcerative colitis (UC). The primary objective will be to investigate the safety and tolerability of repeat oral doses of GSK2982772 60 mg or placebo three times daily for 42 days (Part A) followed by open label with GSK298772 60 mg three times daily for 42 days (Part B). In addition to pharmacokinetics (PK), a number of experimental and clinical endpoints will be employed to obtain information on the pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy in subjects with active UC. Although no formal hypothesis will be tested, these endpoints will enable a broader understanding of the mechanism of action and potential for clinical efficacy of GSK2982772 in UC. Within 30 Days of screening visit, subjects will be randomized to receive either GSK2982772 60 mg or placebo orally three times daily for 42 Days (6 weeks) in a 2:1 ratio in Part A study. Subjects who complete the Part A study will move to open label Part B study to receive GSK2982772 60 mg three times daily for an additional 42 Days (6 weeks). After the open label (Part B) treatment period, subjects will enter the Follow-up period which lasts for 28 Days (+/- 3 Days) post the last administration of study medication. The total duration of participation in the study will be approximately 20 Weeks from screening to the last study visit.
NCT01742286
