NCT01549964
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 2 doses of TAK-875 (25 mg and 50 mg), once daily (QD), plus metformin compared to placebo plus metformin and sitagliptin plus metformin on lowering blood sugar.
NCT01455870
Phase 3 study to compare treatment with ITCA 650 to sitagliptin when added to metformin monotherapy in patients with type 2 diabetes.
NCT01974986
Athletes participating in multiple training sessions a day can be at increased risk of suboptimal hydration and heat illness during their second training session, especially when the environment is hot and humid. With the exception of the absolute volume of water delivered by a rehydration beverage, characteristics of the beverage consumed play a role in the recovery and completeness of rehydration. The amount of sodium in the beverage has been shown to be a primary factor in rehydration. Recently, an effect of the carbohydrate concentration of the beverage was been reported, with its effects mediated by the renal system in response to elevated serum insulin. The purpose of this study is to compare sodium and carbohydrate effects on rehydration and recovery.
NCT02467634
A fellow eye controlled study of HUCNS-SC sub-retinal transplantation in subjects with bilateral GA AMD. All subjects will be assigned to HUCNS-SC transplantation.
NCT01829477
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of TAK-875 compared to placebo on glycemic control over a 24-week Treatment Period when used as an add-on to glimepiride in addition to diet and exercise.
NCT01829464
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of TAK-875 (fasiglifam) in combination with sitagliptin on glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes.
NCT01599949
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib in patients with mantle cell lymphoma who received at least 1 prior rituximab-containing chemotherapy regimen and who progressed after bortezomib therapy.
NCT00993382
The Primary objective was to assess the efficacy of Celivarone for the prevention of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) interventions or death. Secondary objectives were: * To assess the tolerability and safety of the different dose regimens of Celivarone in the selected population. * To document Celivarone plasma levels during the study.
NCT01555216
Foot surgery often causes severe and prolonged pain postoperatively. Prior methods of postoperative pain control included oral narcotics, single injection regional techniques and more recently continuous nerve catheters. Recent studies have demonstrated a benefit with continuous popliteal catheters when compared to single injection techniques in regards to postoperative pain control and patient satisfaction for foot surgeries. Nerve blocks in the popliteal fossa involve both the common peroneal nerve and the tibial nerve. The innervation to the plantar surface of the forefoot involves the tibial nerve and does not involve the peroneal nerve. The purpose of this study is to compare the continuous posterior tibial nerve catheter with a single injection posterior tibial nerve block when used as part of a surgical ankle block for forefoot surgery.
NCT00144014
A Phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of five dose levels of study drug in acute ischaemic stroke
NCT02060331
In our experience, women with severe pelvic organ prolapse (POP) frequently have bothersome nocturia. The International Continence Society (ICS) defines nocturia as "having to wake at night one or more times to void." Though some of this nocturia may be secondary to obstructed bladder emptying, the investigators hypothesize that in some women compression of the bilateral ureters due to prolapsed pelvic organs during the day and subsequent relief of that prolapse while the patient lays supine overnight results in nighttime post-obstructive diuresis (inability to concentrate urine) and resultant large nighttime urine volumes and nocturia. Previous case reports have proposed that vaginal and uterine vault prolapse causes obstruction due to descent of the bladder floor which leads to compression of the bilateral ureters between the uterus and the borders of the genital opening. No large prospective studies, however, have evaluated the possible impact of this phenomenon on patients or the possible post-operative changes following surgical correction of POP. Using the Nocturnal Enuresis, and Sleep interruption Questionnaire (NNES-Q), voiding diaries, and urine studies, the investigators aim to evaluate the pre-operative and post-operative voiding habits and urinary parameters of women with severe pelvic organ prolapse and bothersome nocturia who undergo colpocleisis. Colpocleisis is a procedure which surgically obliterates the vaginal lumen to treat severe POP in properly counseled patients with \>90% satisfaction rates. Other treatments offered to women, such as the laparoscopic or open sacrocolpopexy, uterosacral ligament suspension, and sacrospinous ligament suspension, also offer high rates of success. The investigators aim to determine whether surgical correction of severe pelvic organ prolapse, to be defined as either with colpocleisis, laparoscopic or open sacrocolpopexy, uterosacral ligament suspension, or sacrospinous ligament suspension, results in improvement and/or resolution of nocturia and post-obstructive diuresis.
NCT02188173
This is a study of OZURDEX® use in clinical practice in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).
NCT01458951
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib (CP-690,550) in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis who have failed or be intolerant to one of following treatments for ulcerative colitis: oral steroids, azathiopurine/6-mercaptopurine, or anti-TNF-alpha therapy.
NCT00193180
This trial evaluates the novel combination of docetaxel with imatinib as first or second line therapy in advanced breast cancer with the aim of achieving higher effectiveness and potentially reducing side effects.
NCT02466061
This randomized, controlled study evaluates the efficacy of weigh loss interventions in endometrial cancer survivors, using novel technology-based weight loss platforms. This is a multi-site, pilot feasibility study which will provide preliminary data to support a larger NIH funded, mult-center trial.
NCT01912222
This is a phase 1, 2-part, pharmacokinetic study in patients with advanced solid tumors or hematologic malignancies and varying degrees of liver dysfunction (normal function, moderate hepatic impairement or severe hepatic impairment) as defined by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Organ Dysfunction Working Group.
NCT01363440
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of Intravitreal Aflibercept Injection (IAI; EYLEA®; BAY86-5321) on the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) assessed by the early treatment diabetic retinopathy study (ETDRS) chart in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) with central involvement.
NCT00175526
At present, the management of pre-eclampsia is guided by expert opinions that are not well-based on firm evidence. What is required is a clinical tool that can accurately determine a women's risk for adverse outcomes, and thereby reduce the risk for women while safely prolonging pregnancies remote from term (to improve fetal outcomes). This research project, 'a severity score for pre-eclampsia,' will develop such a clinical tool that is specific to the condition. This severity score will be used clinically (to guide management) and in research (in both clinical trials and basic science research), and will provide an evidence base on which to build future practice, improving outcomes for pregnant women and their babies. In addition, this project is part of a three part strategy to better understand the mechanisms of disease in pre-eclampsia and to investigate a potential disease-modifying therapy, namely, recombinant human activated protein C.
NCT01020838
To determine the sensitivity and specificity of the visual assessment of tracer uptake in the Florbetaben PET images compared to histological verification of the presence or absence of cerebral β-amyloid in the respective histopathologic post mortem specimens as the standard of truth
NCT01527617
The objective of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-design clinical trial is to investigate the potential antioxidant benefits of a cranberry beverage. The investigators hypothesize the chronic consumption of this beverage will improve indices of oxidative stress, inflammation, endothelial function, and glucoregulation. The investigators also hypothesize that these benefits will be particularly evident following an oral glucose tolerance test.
