NCT01459913
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if a 12-week total regimen of telaprevir in combination with pegylated interferon alfa 2a (Peg-IFN-alfa-2a) and ribavirin (RBV) (T12/PR12) is safe and effective in subjects who have the interleukin-28B (IL28B) CC genotype. The subjects enrolled in this study will have chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and will not have cirrhosis of the liver.
NCT00022464
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of CCI-779 in treating patients who have metastatic melanoma.
NCT01467505
To assess efficacy of telaprevir, pegylated interferon alfa-2a (Peg-IFN-alfa-2a), and ribavirin (RBV) for hepatitis C virus (HCV) in a 48-week total treatment duration regimen following liver transplantation.
NCT00110994
This is a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, multicenter, phase II study to compare the anti-tumor activity as measured by progression-free survival (PFS) and the tolerability of Sorafenib in combination with Dacarbazine (DTIC) versus DTIC in combination with placebo in subjects with unresectable Stage III or Stage IV melanoma who have not received prior cytotoxic chemotherapy. A total of approximately 98 subjects will be randomized to receive DTIC + Sorafenib or DTIC + Placebo.
NCT01998802
This is a phase III double-masked, randomized, controlled study evaluating the efficacy of EBI-005 as compared to vehicle given as a topical ophthalmic solution in each eye to subjects with moderate to severe DED three times daily for 12 weeks. Approximately 730 subjects at up to approximately 50 centers in the United States will be screened, enrolled into the study.
NCT01715467
This observational study will prospectively collect data on treatment options, patient/investigator satisfaction, requirement for retreatment or additional treatment, and long-term outcomes of 3 treatment modalities(XIAFLEX, fasciectomy, or fasciotomy/needle aponeurotomy) in patients with Dupuytren's contracture. In addition, this study will provide additional health economics and utilization data.
NCT00991341
The RECESS study will compare the effects of transfusing red blood cell units stored \<= 10 days vs. red blood cell units stored \>= 21 days, in patients who are undergoing complex cardiac surgery and are likely to need a red blood cell transfusion. The primary hypothesis is that there is a clinically important difference between the effects of shorter-storage red cell units and longer-storage red cell units on clinical outcomes and mortality risk.
NCT01678963
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of topical ophthalmic squalamine lactate eye drops in treating patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD), a degenerative retinal eye disease that causes a progressive, irreversible, severe loss of central vision.
NCT01203449
The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of gestational age (GA) estimates by using the New Ballard Score (NBS) in newborns 24 to 27 weeks GA with accurate obstetric estimates of GA. Secondary purposes were: (1) to compare the accuracy of GA estimates derived from the NBS, the original Ballard score, and the physical items of the original Ballard score and (2) to compare these measures of GA and best obstetric estimates of GA as predictors of survival, morbidity, and hospital stay among infants \<28 weeks' gestation and among very low birth weight infants in general.
NCT00005774
Mechanical ventilation (MV) of preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is associated with lung injury and nosocomial infection. Moderately premature infants with mild respiratory distress do not routinely receive artificial surfactant early in their course of treatment. This multi-center, randomized trial tested whether early surfactant therapy and nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in infants 1,250-2,000g with RDS reduced mechanical ventilation usage without added complications. Infants with mild to moderate respiratory distress syndrome were enrolled in the trial and given either early administration of surfactant followed by extubation within 30 minutes and the use of CPAP, or standard practice (surfactant according to current center practice, only after initiation of mechanical ventilation), to see whether the experimental method would reduce the need for subsequent mechanical ventilation.
NCT02349503
This is a Phase 1, multicenter, open-label, single-dose study to evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of NBI-77860 in subjects with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). The study will be conducted in approximately 15 adolescent females (12-18 years of age) with a documented medical diagnosis of classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency CAH. The study will include three independent dose cohorts of NBI-77860 (approximately 5 subjects per dose cohort). Ascending doses will be evaluated as part of a sequential-cohort design.
NCT00464737
This trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of rotigotine as compared to placebo in reducing signs and symptoms of fibromyalgia syndrome. The effects of rotigotine on pain, sleep, general activity, mood, and quality of life, and the use of rescue medication to treat pain will be assessed.
NCT00641056
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of 2.0 mg exenatide once weekly and insulin glargine, titrated to glucose targets using the algorithm described by Yki- Järvinen et al.(2007), with respect to glycemic improvements, body weight, fasting lipids, safety, and tolerability.
NCT01775267
This randomized phase II trial compares how well associating liver partition with portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) or portal vein occlusion (PVO) works in treating patients with liver cancer. Both treatments are types of 2-stage hepatectomies for removing liver cancer. ALPPS may be more effective than PVO in patients whose disease would traditionally be considered inoperable. * Trial with surgical intervention
NCT00444561
This exploratory study is designed to evaluate various pharmacodynamic effects of subcutaneously (SC) infused or injected pramlintide in obese, nondiabetic male and postmenopausal female (not on hormone replacement therapy) subjects. The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of pramlintide administered by SC infusion or injection.
NCT01634113
The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two doses of tiotropium inhalation solution delivered via the Respimat® inhaler once daily in the afternoon in patients (1 to 5 years old) with persistent asthma on top of inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) treatment.
NCT00234793
The purpose of this study is to help mothers of children with cancer to cope more effectively by increasing their problem-solving skills.
NCT02429882
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of brodalumab compared with placebo in participants with axial spondyloarthritis. Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to brodalumab or placebo for the first part of the study. Subjects will then receive open label brodalumab for the remainder of the study. The entire study will be 312 weeks in duration for each subject.
NCT00693784
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of the Biostat Disc Augmentation System for the treatment of chronic low-back (lumbar) pain due to symptomatic internal disc disruptions (IDD) and to obtain preliminary efficacy information.
NCT01335061
The purpose of this study will be to determine if a once-weekly prophylaxis regimen of BeneFIX in subjects with moderately severe to severe Hemophilia B is safe and effective.
