NCT00684983
This phase II trial studies capecitabine and lapatinib ditosylate to see how well they work compared with capecitabine, lapatinib ditosylate, and cixutumumab in treating patients with previously treated HER2-positive stage IIIB-IV breast cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Lapatinib ditosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with cixutumumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether capecitabine and lapatinib ditosylate are more effective when given with or without cixutumumab in treating breast cancer that has spread nearby or to other areas of the body.
NCT02926638
This randomized phase II/III compares rilotumumab when given together with erlotinib hydrochloride against erlotinib hydrochloride alone in treating patients with stage IV squamous cell lung cancer that has come back after previous treatment. This is a sub-study that includes all screened patients positive for the met proto-oncogene (MET)/hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) biomarker. HGF can interact with MET and can cause tumor cells to grow more quickly. Rilotumumab may decrease the activity of HGF and may be able to shrink tumors. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether giving rilotumumab with erlotinib hydrochloride works better than erlotinib hydrochloride alone (standard treatment) in treating squamous cell lung cancer.
NCT03231956
To investigate the relationship between initial ClearSight™ derived hemodynamic parameters and outcomes (death, ongoing organ dysfunction or delayed ICU admission) in patients with acute infection and possible sepsis, with a focus on venous blood lactate (\< 2.0, 2.0-3.9, and ≥ 4.0 mmol/dL) and hemodynamic subgroups, using ED patients presenting with minor infections or asthma/COPD exacerbations as controls (henceforth referred to as Sepsis Mimic Group).
NCT03244982
Fluorescein angiography is a common procedure used in ophthalmology to diagnose and monitor diseases of the eye. The standard dose of fluorescein dye used in fluorescein angiography is 500mg. It is common practice to give patients who have previously had an adverse reaction to fluorescein dye a half-dose, or 250mg, of fluorescein. It has been determined by our institution that anecdotally, there is no difference in image quality between the images created by a half-dose of fluorescein versus a full dose of fluorescein. Therefore, this study seeks to determine whether these doses are actually equivalent in terms of image quality. Patients who consent to participate in the study will be randomized to receive either a half or a full dose of intravenous fluorescein, and their images will be compared subjectively using a masked team of retinal surgeons and residents. We hypothesize that there will be no significant difference between the images obtained using a half-dose versus a full dose of intravenous fluorescein.
NCT01452529
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of HYD tablets 20 to 120 mg once-daily dose compared to placebo in subjects with moderate to severe chronic low back pain uncontrolled by their current stable analgesic regimen
NCT01307267
A study of PF-05082566, a 4-1BB agonist monoclonal antibody (mAb), in patients with solid tumors or b-cell lymphomas, and in combination with rituximab in patients with CD20 positive Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL).
NCT00857610
Topical therapy with retinoids is the only proven medical therapy for aged/photoaged human skin. However, topical therapy with retinoids often result in unwanted cutaneous dermatitis, including erythema and scaling. The reseachers intend to investigate the dose, frequency of use, and time dependence of topical retinol-induced dermatitis. The researchers intend to evaluate retinoid-induced dermatitis biochemically, including retinol regulation of retinoid responsive genes that control retinoid metabolism and serve as markers for retinoid bioactivity. The researchers will also investigate the role of EGF receptor pathway in retinoid-induced dermatitis.
NCT00524017
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block abnormal cell growth in different ways. Some block the ability of abnormal cells to grow and spread. Others find abnormal cells and help kill them or carry cell-killing substances to them. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well cetuximab works in treating patients with precancerous lesions of the upper aerodigestive tract.
NCT01094262
The purpose of this study is to evaluate pain relief, safety, and tolerability of a new treatment (JNJ-42160443) for moderate to severe pain of osteoarthritis of the knee in comparison to a standard pain treatment and placebo.
NCT02608099
The purpose of the prospective, randomized cohort in this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of 2 apixaban treatment strategies (uninterrupted versus interrupted) in subjects planned to undergo catheter ablation for the treatment of non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). Simultaneously, a retrospective cohort of 300 warfarin-treated individuals, identified by chart review, who are matched to the prospective randomized subjects, will be identified. The purpose of the retrospective warfarin cohort is to compare the efficacy and safety of warfarin(the current clinical practice) to that of apixaban (uninterrupted, interrupted, combined uninterrupted and interrupted).
NCT03123055
This is a Phase 1b/2 multi-center, open-label study to establish the initial safety and to determine a recommended Phase 2 dose of B-701 in combination with pembrolizumab, and to determine safety, tolerability and efficacy of B-701 (vofatamab) plus pembrolizumab in the treatment of subjects with locally advanced or metastatic UCC, who have progressed following platinum-based chemotherapy and who have not received prior immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy.
NCT01716715
This randomized phase II trial studies how well giving cabozantinib-s-malate or paclitaxel works in treating patients with persistent or recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cavity cancer. Cabozantinib-s-malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known whether cabozantinib-s-malate or paclitaxel is more effective at treating patients with persistent or recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cavity cancer.
NCT03186183
GPS is a sexual health promotion and HIV prevention peer-delivered counselling program. The GPS program has 4 parts: information provision about HIV and sexually transmitted infections, motivational interviewing counselling, sexual health behavioural skills building, and linkage to care. The adaptation grant has three goals: 1) to establish a multi-region and multi-sectoral team that can deliver the revised program across a variety of settings, 2) to learn how best to deliver this program as individual counselling program and also how to adapt this program for HIV-negative MSM, and 3) to pilot the individual program in 5 settings across Ontario and British Columbia. The research team will evaluate the pilot adaptation through mixed methods, employing a quantitative questionnaire and one-on-one semi-structured interviews.
NCT01400971
The purpose of this study is to identify specific patient, physician, and health system related factors associated with the progression to a more intensive regimen from initial insulin therapy for patients with type 2 diabetes.
NCT01628523
Despite its life-saving potential, the mechanical ventilator has great potential to do harm. Despite years of research, the mortality in acute lung injury (ALI) remains very high. Treatment options after ALI onset are very limited, therefore prevention may be the best option. Unfortunately, the emergency department has not been studied with respect to mechanical ventilation practices, and its contribution to ALI is unknown. The investigators hypothesize that mechanical ventilation is frequently used in the ED and for a variety of reasons, and that ED mechanical ventilation has an effect on long term outcomes.
NCT03090607
This is a prospective, multi-center, double-blind, crossover, randomized controlled trial designed to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of Aluvra for the treatment of GERD.
NCT03056729

A secondary objective of the study for both healthy volunteers and participants with AD is to assess the serum pharmacokinetic(s) (PK) profile of BIIB076 after single-dose administration. Another secondary objective is to evaluate the immunogenicity of BIIB076 in serum after single-dose administration.
NCT00001469
Molecular approaches to the understanding of human neoplastic disease have revealed that multiple genetic alterations are an essential component of tumorigenesis. Both germline and somatic genetic alterations can be involved in the malignant transformation of normal cells. Identification of the genes involved in neoplastic transformation has been approached through the molecular analysis of sporadic cancers and the genetic study of families with an inherited predisposition for cancer. The interplay of these two approaches has led to the characterization of genes such as the retinoblastoma (Rb) gene, the p53 gene and the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene that are all involved in the development of both hereditary and non-hereditary forms of cancer. Inherited mutations in such genes predispose affected families to hereditary cancer syndromes, affording an opportunity to identify genetic lesions that also cause the more common sporadic cancers. Prostate cancer (PRCA) is the most common cancer diagnosed (1999 estimate 179,300 cases) and the second leading cause of cancer mortality (1999 estimate 37,000 deaths) in men in the United States. Family history is the single strongest risk factor currently known for prostate cancer. This raises the possibility that heritable genetic factors may be involved in the development of this disease in a subset of men. The genetic contribution to diseases of complex origin such as cancer is often most salient in families of early onset cases. Therefore, prostate cancer inheritance following a simple Mendelian pattern may be identified in the families of probands with early-onset cases. Common susceptibility alleles of small effect may be detectable in families with later-onsent and/or less strong family history of PRCA or in case-control data.
