NCT00475852
The purpose of this study is to find out if nesiritide (a human B-type natriuretic peptide/hBNP) as compared to placebo, plus the usual treatment for acute decompensated heart failure, helps to improve breathing difficulties, reduce heart failure readmissions to hospitals, and helps patients live longer.
NCT00002723
Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of low, intermediate, and high dose suramin in treating men with stage IV prostate cancer that is refractory to hormone therapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known which regimen of suramin is more effective for prostate cancer.
NCT00777309
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind phase 2 study designed to compare treatment with ARQ 197 plus erlotinib to erlotinib plus placebo in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. The study will enroll patients who have had one prior chemotherapy regimen (other than erlotinib) for NSCLC.
NCT00195351
This is a phase 3b/4 randomized, open-label, comparative, multicenter study of the safety and efficacy of tigecycline to ceftriaxone sodium plus metronidazole in hospitalized subjects with cIAI (Complicated Intra-Abdominal Infection). Subjects with clinical signs and symptoms of cIAI will be included for enrollment. Subjects will be stratified at randomization for Acute Physiologic and Chronic Health Evaluation scale (APACHE II) score \< 10 and \> 10. Subjects will be followed for efficacy through the test-of-cure assessment. Safety evaluations will occur through the treatment and post-treatment periods and continue through resolution or stability of the adverse event(s).
NCT00107016
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of the combination of everolimus and letrozole compared to placebo and letrozole as pre-surgical therapy in patients with newly diagnosed estrogen receptor positive breast cancer.
NCT00676650
This study will compare the safety and efficacy of sunitinib in combination with prednisone versus placebo and prednisone in patients that have metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer that has progressed after treatment with a docetaxel-containing chemotherapy regimen. This is a second-line study.
NCT01770899
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of oral montelukast (Singulair) given with other standard asthma medications and treatments in the treatment of children with status asthmaticus. Status asthmaticus is an acute asthma attack that does not respond to standard intermittent treatments but requires a continuous medication to aid in breathing. While new medications have been used to better manage chronic asthma, acute asthma exacerbations continue to be a significant cause of hospitalization and even death in children. Oral montelukast is a very safe medication that is used to manage chronic asthma in children, but it has not been studied for use in status asthmaticus. If oral montelukast, given with other standard therapies, can reduce the treatment length associated with severe, acute asthma exacerbations in children, it could potentially improve both the morbidity and burden of pediatric asthma.
NCT00272805
The purpose of this study is to compare dosing compliance between study patients taking controlled release carvedilol once a day, and study patients taking immediate release carvedilol (Coreg) twice a day.
NCT00134459
The purpose of the study is to investigate whether eight weeks of treatment with flexible doses of bifeprunox is superior to treatment with placebo in depressed patients with bipolar disorder.
NCT00402337
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of administration of linaclotide acetate in patients with chronic constipation.
NCT00067041
Approximately 30 patients will be enrolled in this 12-week study designed to assess the effect of continuous subcutaneous Remodulin therapy on the outcome of infrainguinal bypass grafts in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI). Portions of the study will be conducted in the hospital and on an out-patient basis. The study will be conducted at multiple centers.
NCT01214811
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the change in signs of inflammation/local infection when Mepilex Border Ag is used in normal clinical practice when used on chronic ulcers (venous leg, diabetic foot and pressure ulcers) and partial thickness burns in need\* of topical antimicrobial treatment according to the physician.
NCT01465282
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of 3 dose strengths of CT327 ointment (0.05%, 0.1% and 0.05% w/w) compared to a placebo, when applied twice daily for up to 8 weeks, to the psoriatic plaques of patients with psoriasis vulgaris.
NCT00969722
This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, open-label study. Patients meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria will be randomized (1:1) to receive two cycles of MAb-3F8 plus GM-CSF or RA plus GM-CSF. Patients who do not respond to their assigned treatment after two cycles may cross-over to receive the alternate treatment. Disease response and safety will be assessed in all patients after cycle 2 and after cycle 4.
NCT00384358
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety of administering rhBMP-2/CPM as an adjuvant to internal fixation in subjects with fractures of the proximal femur.
NCT00988741
This is a global randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded Phase 2 study designed to compare treatment of ARQ 197 versus placebo in patients with unresectable HCC who had radiographic disease progression after systemic first line therapy or were unable to tolerate the therapy.
NCT00272961
The study was to determine the safe and effective dose of TBC3711 in patients with uncontrolled high blood pressure while already taking blood pressure medications.
NCT00752726
The purpose of this study is to determine if a 24 week weight loss program with orlistat 60 mg will produce greater changes in body composition compared to placebo.
