NCT00017550
RATIONALE: Immunosuppressive therapy may improve bone marrow abnormalities and may be effective treatment for myelodysplastic syndrome. It is not yet known whether immunosuppressive therapy is more effective than supportive care in treating myelodysplastic syndrome. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of antithymocyte globulin with that of supportive care in treating patients who have myelodysplastic syndrome.
NCT02615327

NCT01050101
In this research study, investigators are interested in how certain dietary fibers in the diet affect certain hormones released from your intestine after eating and how these influence your appetite. The study hypothesis is that certain fibers will slow digestion and absorption of nutrients thereby optimizing fullness,reducing food intake and limiting insulin response in pre- and post-menopausal women.
NCT02962375
Primary object is to determine if 100% orange juice with enzyme-treated orange pomace fiber compared to a 100% orange juice will reduce 2 hr glycemic response as measured by glucose area under the curve. Secondary object is to assess if 100% orange juice with enzyme-treated orange pomace fiber compared to a 100% orange juice will reduce 2 hr insulin iAUC response.
NCT00943800
The primary objective is to assess the rate of engraftment with combined haploidentical-cord blood transplantation. The secondary objective is to evaluate the incidence and severity of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).
NCT02785458
This study evaluates the effectiveness of an electronic health record based educational intervention (the EMC2 strategy) to improve patient understanding and use of higher-risk medications. Half of the participants will receive the intervention, while the other half will receive the usual amount of information (usual care).
NCT00515528
The purpose of this study is to determine if an experimental melanoma vaccine can produce an immune response in patients with metastatic melanoma, and if combining this vaccine with the drug Ontak can improve these immune responses. It is also hoped that this will lead to tumor shrinkage.
NCT02167555
Primary objective is to characterize the relative bioavailability and kinetic profile of wild blueberry polyphenols over 24-hours period. Secondary objective is to examine the relationship between bioavailability and kinetic profile of wild blueberry polyphenols on markers of chronic diseases.
NCT00300053
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intramyocardial injections of CLBS14 in patients with refractory chronic myocardial ischemia.
NCT02226250
Primary objective is to determine absorption profile of a sugar-based beverage on inflammatory mechanism by timing of beverage consumption relative to meal intake. Secondary objective is to determine absorption profile of a sugar-based beverage on oxidative and metabolic mechanism by timing of beverage consumption relative to meal intake. The results will be served as an internal reference or negative control group to compare with polyphenol containing studies from other studies. Each subject will receive 3 identical placebo drinks at each time points: fasting (0h), with standardized breakfast meal (2h), and 2 hours after the breakfast meal (4h). A planned size of 12 will be recruited into this part of the study. This study is a single-arm design utilizing a multiple sampling, and repeated measures paradigm to evaluate timing influence of consumption of sugar-based beverage associated acute effect on inflammatory markers.
NCT01491997
Stress has been linked to chronic health problems, particularly diseases involving inflammation-mediated tissue injury and organ failure. Accordingly, it is not surprising that mind/body interventions are advocated for treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases. One such candidate disease is ulcerative colitis (UC) because: (1) UC is a life-long, relapsing, disabling inflammatory disorder of the intestine that lacks a non-toxic, efficacious treatment; (2) the therapeutic goal is to improve quality of life by ameliorating disabling symptoms and preventing disease progression by preventing disease flare-up, (3) stress triggers UC flare-up by modifying intestinal function and inflammatory processes, highlighting the potential therapeutic benefit of reducing physiological stress responses. The purpose of this study is to see if either of two 8-week mind/body medicine courses has an effect in reducing stress and affecting the course and severity of UC. Both have been shown to benefit other aspects of health and well-being.
NCT03339401
This study was designed to assess the safety, overall tolerability, and antiviral activity of "short course" brincidofovir (BCV) therapy, as compared with current standard of care (SoC), for the treatment of adenovirus (AdV) infections in high-risk (i.e., T cell depleted) pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients. A virologic response-driven approach to the duration of treatment was to be evaluated, in which subjects randomized to BCV therapy were to be treated until AdV viremia was confirmed as undetectable or until a maximum of 16 weeks of therapy, whichever occurred first. The formulation of BCV used in this study was oral tablet/suspension.
NCT03035474
CONNECT-HF is a large-scale, pragmatic, cluster-randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effect of a customized, multifaceted, health system-level quality-improvement (QI) program compared with usual care on heart failure (HF) outcomes and HF quality-of-care metrics.
NCT00632385
To assess the efficacy and safety of eletriptan for migraine headaches in subjects who were not satisfied with rizatriptan therapy
NCT00596466
This study will evaluate the long term safety and efficacy of pregabalin (Lyrica) when administered by itself (without any other anti-epileptic medication) to epilepsy patients for the treatment of partial seizures. This is an extension study to a previous clinical trial.
NCT02652481
The objective of this study is to collect data to confirm the safety and effectiveness of the Image Ready™ MR (Magnetic Resonance) Conditional Defibrillation System when used in the 1.5T (Tesla) MRI environment under the labeled Conditions of Use (Phase I). Additionally, the study will assess medically necessary MR scans according to the labeled Conditions of Use to provide real-world scanning data (Phase I and Phase II).The study also aims to demonstrate the continued ability of the ImageReady MR Conditional Defibrillation System to sense and detect ventricular fibrillation (VF) post MRI scan by collecting and analyzing data from spontaneous VF episodes, "for-cause" VF inductions, and from an optional VF induction Sub-study. .
NCT02420379
This is an open-label study to assess the safety, tolerability, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of eteplirsen in patients with early stage Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) who are amenable to exon 51 skipping.
NCT03239873
This study will evaluate the immunogenicity, safety, and tolerability of VARIVAX® (Varicella Virus Vaccine Live) manufactured with a new passage extension (PE34) process compared with the VARIVAX® 2016 commercial process. The primary hypotheses being tested are that antibody response rate and mean antibody titer induced at 6 weeks after a single vaccination by VARIVAX® PE34 Process are non-inferior to those induced by VARIVAX® 2016 commercial process, and that antibody response rate induced by VARIVAX® PE34 Process is acceptable.
NCT00358657
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of fludarabine phosphate, cyclophosphamide and total-body irradiation followed by donor bone marrow transplant and cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, tacrolimus, and sirolimus in treating patients with primary immunodeficiency disorders or noncancerous inherited disorders. Giving low doses of chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a bone marrow transplant helps prepare the patient's body to accept the incoming donor's bone marrow and decrease the risk that the patient's immune system will reject the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells called graft versus host disease. Giving cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, tacrolimus, and sirolimus after the transplant may help decrease this from happening.
NCT03714152
This three-part, Phase 1 protocol will be the first clinical study of ABI-H2158. Parts 1 and 2 will be a Phase 1a, dose-ranging assessment of ABI-H2158 in healthy adult volunteers. If the dose-related safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of ABI-H2158 in healthy volunteers are deemed satisfactory, then the study will advance to Part 3, a Phase 1b, dose-ranging assessment of ABI-H2158 in non-cirrhotic, CHB patients.
