NCT00031824
RATIONALE: Hydroxychloroquine may decrease the immune response and be effective in treating chronic graft-versus-host disease. It is not yet known if standard therapy for graft-versus-host disease is more effective with or without hydroxychloroquine. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of standard therapy alone with that of standard therapy plus hydroxychloroquine in treating patients who have newly diagnosed chronic graft-versus-host disease.
NCT00087100
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as pemetrexed disodium work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well pemetrexed disodium works in treating patients with persistent or recurrent endometrial cancer.
NCT00086892
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies such as cetuximab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy such as carboplatin work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining cetuximab with carboplatin may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving cetuximab together with carboplatin works in treating patients with recurrent ovarian epithelial cancer or primary peritoneal cancer.

Patients, already treated with MTX at stable doses, will be randomized to receive either RoActemra/Actemra 8 mg/kg intravenously (IV) every 4 weeks or adalimumab 40 mg subcutaneous (SC) every 2 weeks. All patients will receive methotrexate (10-25 mg weekly) and folate (at least 5 mg weekly). The anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks.
NCT01181960
The purpose of this study is to build a data repository that can be used to understand pharmaceutical utilization patterns among patients being treated in community behavioral health organizations (CBHOs) for schizophrenia or bipolar I disorder.
NCT00520143
Pompe disease (also known as glycogen storage disease Type II) is caused by a deficiency of a critical enzyme in the body called acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). Normally, GAA is used by the body's cells to break down glycogen (a stored form of sugar) within specialized structures called lysosomes. In patients with Pompe disease, an excessive amount of glycogen accumulates and is stored in various tissues, especially heart and skeletal muscle, which prevents their normal function. The objective of this expanded access study is to provide patients with Pompe disease in the United States (US), access to alglucosidase alfa produced from a scaled up manufacturing process for a limited time until production at this scale is approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration.
NCT00017368
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. Peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy followed by peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating children who have newly diagnosed neuroblastoma.
NCT01602393
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ascending oral doses of CHF 5074 after prolonged administration to patients with mild cognitive impairment.
NCT01305746
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of A-623 in subjects with SLE.
NCT01941706
Project UPLIFT, a home-based treatment for depression in people with epilepsy, was designed to be delivered to groups by telephone or Web. The Project UPLIFT intervention materials were demonstrated to be effective in treating depression among people with epilepsy in Georgia. This project will assess whether the materials are also effective for preventing depression among people with epilepsy, and will extend the project beyond Georgia to Michigan, Texas, and Washington.
NCT00999661
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the results patients are obtaining with the Realize™ Adjustable Gastric Band-C during the first 24 months after surgery.
NCT01536041
The primary objectives of this study are: i. to determine the effect of single oral doses (20 and 200 mg) of ONO-6950 versus placebo on exercise induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) as percent attenuation in the decrease of forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) after exercise challenge ii. to determine the safety and tolerability of single dose administrations of 20 and 200 mg of ONO-6950 in asthmatic patients. The secondary objectives of this study are: i. to compare the effect of different (20 and 200 mg) single oral doses of ONO-6950 versus montelukast (10 mg) on EIB as percent attenuation in the decrease of FEV1 after exercise challenge ii. to determine the ratio of responders/non-responders in FEV1 for different (20 and 200 mg) single oral doses of ONO-6950 in comparison to montelukast (10 mg) and placebo.
NCT00070200
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan and cyclophosphamide, use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of induction chemotherapy using cyclophosphamide and topotecan in treating patients who are undergoing surgery and autologous stem cell transplantation followed by radiation therapy for newly diagnosed or progressive neuroblastoma.

NCT02058342
Compared to other children, those with disability have additional challenges to being physically active. Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a genetic form of childhood obesity that is characterized by hypotonia, growth hormone deficiency, behavioral, and cognitive disability. In children, the low prevalence of PWS (1 in 10,000 to 15,000 live births) makes group-based physical activity (PA) interventions impossible. In contrast, the home environment presents a natural venue to establish a PA routine for this population. The present high prevalence of non-syndromal childhood obesity (one in four) and high physical inactivity rates, make alternative approaches to increasing PA in this population an area of high interest. Therefore, we have developed a 24-week home-based physical activity that could be suitable for children and adolescents ages 8-15 with PWS as well as obese children without PWS ages 8-11 years. It is hypothesized that: 1) an age-appropriate 24-week home-based PA intervention will increase PA levels in youth with PWS and without the syndrome but with obesity; 2) motor proficiency, central sensory reception and integration, and body composition will significantly improve in youth with and without PWS following completion of the home-based PA intervention and 3) physical activity self-efficacy and quality of life will increase significantly in youth with and without PWS who complete the home-based PA intervention. The study participants are 115 youth ages 8-15 y (45 with PWS and 70 without PWS but categorized as obese). The study utilizes a parallel design with the wait-listed control group receiving the intervention after serving as control. Participants are expected to complete the PA curriculum 4 days a week for six months including playground games 2 days a week and interactive console games 2 days a week. Parents are trained at baseline and then provided with a PA curriculum (Active Play at Home) and equipment to guide their implementation of the program at home. Measurements of children and parent dyads are assessed at baseline and at the end (week 24) of the intervention or control periods. Outcome measures include PA, body composition, motor proficiency, central sensory reception and integration (subsample of children only), quality of life and physical activity self-efficacy. PA intervention compliance is monitored using mail-in daily self-report checklists.
