NCT00048308
During a heart bypass procedure, a substance called "complement" is released by the body. This complement causes inflammation, which can lead to side effects such as chest pain, heart attacks, heart failure, or impairment of memory, language and motor skills. The purpose of this study is to find out if the study drug (pexelizumab), which blocks complement release, can reduce such side effects and be taken safely.
NCT02592993
Open-label, prospective study. Up to 60 healthy adult volunteers seeking facial acne scars treatment, males or females of 18 to 75 years of age, from up to 3 investigational sites.
NCT00659789
Current management of HIV infection includes anti-retroviral therapy (ART). ART cannot cure the infection, making it a life-long treatment that requires sustained patient compliance and imposes significant individual and societal financial burdens on healthcare services. Furthermore, ART side effects often require medication that increases the inconveniences and financial burdens of HIV management. Of further concern is the emergence of viruses resistant to ART that can result in treatment failure. ART-free periods could provide substantial benefit. Vacc-4x is a peptide-based HIV immunotherapy that is proposed for prolongation of ART-free periods. The purpose of this study is to determine whether Vacc-4x immunotherapy can give safe ART-free period.
NCT02311907
This randomized phase III trial is studying glutathione to see how well it works in preventing peripheral neuropathy caused by paclitaxel and carboplatin in patients with ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and/or primary peritoneal cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Chemoprotective drugs, such as glutathione, may help prevent peripheral neuropathy caused by paclitaxel and carboplatin. It is not yet known whether glutathione is more effective than a placebo in preventing peripheral neuropathy.
NCT02380742
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if lidocaine-prilocaine (EMLA 5%) cream can reduce pain and discomfort at the time of vaginal pessary removal and insertion. Half of the participants will receive lidocaine-prilocaine (EMLA 5%) cream and the other half will receive a placebo cream.
NCT01128894
This open-label study examines the efficacy and safety of albiglutide as compared with liraglutide in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
NCT00791895
This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to investigate the effectiveness of biphasic insulin aspart 30 in type 2 diabetics not achieving blood sugar levels when treated with oral anti-diabetics drugs (OADs) with or without basal insulin therapy.
NCT00099229
This purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Licarbazepine for the treatment of manic episodes of bipolar disorder.
NCT02026752
The objective is to obtain plasma samples from Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) infected individuals that have viral loads across the dynamic range of the Aptima HIV-1 assay. The plasma samples will be tested in a method comparison study to support the approval of the Aptima HIV-1 assay on Gen-Probe's Panther testing system. The objective of the method comparison study is to evaluate the clinical utility of the Aptima HIV-1 assay by comparing the results to the FDA-licensed COBAS assay (Roche Molecular Systems, Inc., Branchburg, New Jersey) in plasma samples that have viral loads across the dynamic range of the Aptima HIV-1 assay.
NCT00713648
The trial is conducted in Europe, North America and Asia. The aim of this trial is to evaluate catridecacog (recombinant factor XIII (rFXIII)) treatment in patients with inherited FXIII deficiency. It is expected that recombinant FXIII can be used for the prevention of bleeding episodes.
NCT01081834
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of 2 different doses of canagliflozin administered as monotherapy compared with placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) inadequately controlled with diet and exercise.
NCT01230021
This trial is conducted in Europe and United States of America (USA). The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the pharmacokinetics (at which rate the substance is distributed and eliminated from the body) and the safety profile of catridecacog (recombinant factor XIII (rFXIII)) in children with congenital FXIII A-subunit deficiency. Young children (1 to less than 6 years old) with congenital FXIII deficiency are evaluated.
NCT01731938
This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of fibrin sealant (FS) Grifols in patients undergoing elective (non-emergency) soft tissue open surgery where bleeding may be present. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that FS Grifols is not inferior to commercially-available oxidized cellulose pads (Surgicel®) in providing benefit in the time to hemostasis (i.e, the stoppage of bleeding). This study has a Preliminary Part (I) for study teams to become familiar with the application of FS Grifols and a Primary Part (II) to assess the safety and efficacy of FS Grifols. In both parts of the study, patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either FS Grifols or Surgicel.
NCT01978210
This pilot study is designed to investigate the feasibility of comparing a standard behavioral intervention and an innovative intervention that incorporates the use of a wireless moisture alarm in training children with autism how to independently use the toilet for urination. We hypothesize that the study protocol will be feasible, as measured through review of achieved recruitment targets, successful randomization, and \>80% retention of subjects with com- plete data collection. Our second hypothesis is that therapists will deliver experimental and standard behavioral treatment intervention with ≥80% fidelity and parents in both intervention groups will adhere to the intervention with ≥80% fidelity. A secondary aim of this study is to examine trends in outcome data by conducting a small RCT (N = 30) of wireless moisture alarm and standard behavioral toilet training, with the hypothesis that the moisture alarm intervention will result in fewer toileting accidents, a higher rate of toileting success and greater parental satisfaction.
NCT00637780
This study will characterize the steady state pharmacokinetics of sulfasalazine delayed release tablets in pediatric Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis patients. Data from this study will fulfill the post approval commitment to the FDA.
NCT01467375
This trial is conducted in Oceania and North America. The aim of this trial is to assess the long term safety and efficacy of biphasic insulin aspart 30 in subjects with type 2 diabetes who have completed the BIAsp-1234 trial.
NCT00986414
This phase IIb study is designed to determine the safe and efficacious dose or dose range of AFQ056 for the treatment of patients with moderate to severe Parkinson's disease with L-Dopa induced dyskinesias.
NCT02144220
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and the value of providing care to individuals with Parkinson disease directly into their homes. The specific aims are: 1. To demonstrate the feasibility of conducting remote evaluations of patients with Parkinson disease nationally; 2. To measure the impact of remote care on each patient's ability to improve his or her quality of life (QoL) and better manage his or her Parkinson disease; and 3. To assess the long-term acceptability to patients in receiving ongoing care remotely via telemedicine.
NCT01044186
The purpose of this open-label, non-comparative, multi-center protocol was to further evaluate safety and to provide treatment with ICL670 to patients who had or were at risk of life threatening complications due to transfusional iron overload with a documented inability to tolerate any of the commercially available iron chelators due to severe toxicity rendering continued therapy either impossible or hazardous. Patients who were also ineligible for all on-going registration trials with ICL670 were included in the study. In exceptional cases, patients with a degree of iron overload which was not immediately life-threatening and who were ineligible for the registration trials were also enrolled provided they had a well-documented, sound justification for alternative chelation therapy.
NCT01127750
This study will assess tolerability and safety and health outcomes in relapsing MS patients taking FTY720.
