NCT03085615
The FEDOX trial is a prospective randomized clinical trial exploring oxidative stress as a mechanism of harm to explain the negative outcomes found in feeding trials that achieved caloric exposure commensurate with the nationally recommended guidelines. Due to its impact on energy metabolism, we will also explore low T3 syndrome's relationship to this mechanism. Finally, we will explore circadian patterns of diurnal/nocturnal TSH fluctuation as a potential biomarker to indicate this mechanism of harm has subsided. This 7-day prospective randomized clinical trial is designed to address the following specific aims (SA) in ICU patients (n=40) with systemic inflammatory response syndrome. SA1) Determine whether provision of enteral nutrition (EN) at 100% of levels in Nationally Recommended Guidelines NRG (25-30 kcals/kg, 100%NRG) early in critical illness increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) production compared to EN at 40% of NRG levels (10-12 kcals/kg, 40%NRG). Subjects will be fasted overnight and randomized to receive either 100% NRG or 40%NRG for 7 days. Plasma F2-isoprostanes will be measured daily and compared between groups through repeated measures analysis. SA2) Determine if EN at 100%NRG interrupts the critical illness induced low T3 syndrome and subsequently further increases the ROS production compared to 40%NRG. Serum thyroid parameters (T3, T4, rT3, TSH) with be measured daily and compared between groups as above. Mediation analysis will be used to determine the proportion of the effect of nutrition group on F2-isoprostane production explained by each thyroid parameter. SA3) Determine if the return of diurnal/noctural fluctuations in TSH is associated with decreased nutrition-induced ROS production. Plasma TSH will be measured twice per day at 0300 and 1800hrs to determine TSH fluctuation. The interaction effect between TSH fluctuation and nutrition group on F2-isoprostane production will be assessed through repeated measures analysis. This study provides vital mechanistic insight into the impact of feeding on oxidative stress during the first week of critical illness, represents an important first step in determining the safest timing and dosage of nutrition support, and sets the foundation for future larger clinical trials on these topics.
NCT02224612
Compare the fit of two pediatric face masks in children.
NCT01180036
The primary outcome of this study is to determine whether or not the B cell targeting with Rituximab is non-inferior or more effective than Cyclosporine in inducing long term remission of proteinuria.
NCT01829997
Spine fusion is one of the most common procedures performed in spinal surgery. Several surgical techniques can achieve a solid union, but the intertransverse posterolateral fusion (PLF) is the most widely used. However, complications can develop when the bone graft material used is insufficient to achieve the desired fusion. With its unique properties, nanOss Bioactive 3D can be mixed with bone marrow aspirate (BMA) and autograft bone to obtain new bone growth during the healing process. nanOss Bioactive 3D is approved for use in the U.S., however, additional information is useful to assess its efficacy in the posterolateral spine. The purpose of this study is to assess fusion results in the posterolateral spine using nanOss Bioactive 3D mixed with autograft bone and BMA. It is hypothesized that the use of nanOss Bioactive 3D will result in fusion at 12 months, with CT evidence of bridging trabecular bone, less than 3mm of translational motion, and less than 5 degrees of angular motion.
NCT02960854
A study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of Nivolumab in participants with severe sepsis or septic shock.
NCT02147197
This study will evaluate the superiority of ulipristal acetate versus placebo for the treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding associated with uterine fibroids
NCT01723696
Vitamin C supplementation (500 mg per day) given to pregnant women who can not quit smoking will improve the pulmonary function tests in their offspring measured at 3 months of age.
NCT02687191
This study employs a modified continual reassessment method (mCRM) design to estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of PF-05230907, defined as a target toxicity rate of 15% based on treatment emergent thromboembolic and/or ischemic events (TIEs). The mCRM design utilizes Bayesian methodology to continuously learn the dose-toxicity relationship, which is characterized by a parametric model. Subjects with a diagnosis of ICH (determined by computed tomography) will be enrolled in cohorts of 3. The total length of time planned for study participation is approximately 3 months; 6.0 hours for screening, a single dose administration with a 4-day minimum hospital confinement period and follow-up visits through Day 91. Severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.03. All subjects who receive PF-05230907 are evaluable for TIEs. The determination of MTD using mCRM modeling will be based on TIEs which occur through 7 days post-dose (Day 8).
NCT02463097
This study is a single-arm, multi-center, Home and Hotel Clinical Investigation in subjects with type 1 diabetes on insulin pump therapy. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the closed loop algorithm that is built into the 670G insulin pump is safe as part of the overall system.

NCT01397409
This study is conducted in 3 stages. Stage 1 is an open-label, dose-escalation assessment of the safety of AGN-150998 administered as a single intravitreal injection to patients with advanced exudative Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). Stage 2 and Stage 3 are randomized, double-masked, comparisons of the safety and treatment effects on retinal edema and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of AGN-150998 and ranibizumab in treatment-naive patients with exudative AMD. Study medication is administered as needed in Stage 2 and with a fixed-dosing schedule in Stage 3. The study objectives are (1) to identify the highest tolerated dose of AGN-150998, (2) to assess the safety and duration of treatment effects on retinal edema and BCVA, and (3) to characterize the systemic pharmacokinetic profile of AGN-150998.
