NCT00210665
The purpose of this study is to facilitate access to trabectedin for eligible previously treated patients with soft tissue sarcoma (STS), who cannot be expected to benefit from currently available therapeutic options but who may benefit from treatment with trabectedin. The safety profile of trabectedin will be evaluated to further assess the potential risks of trabectedin treatment.
NCT00632905
Prostate Cancer patients treated with LHRH agonists (e.g., goserelin) lose Bone Mineral Density (BMD). Using a prospective, observational study design, we propose that monitoring how physicians manage Cancer Treatment Induced Bone Loss(CTIBL) in their patients. The gold standard for evaluating BMD is dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). The proposed study will provide some of the first prospective data on the rates of Skeletal Related Events (SREs) in prostate cancer patients undergoing ADT and help develop official guidelines on the use of DEXA screening for prostate cancer patients.
NCT00994253
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of Tekturna (aliskiren), in combination with an ACE and calcium channel blocker in hypertensive patients diagnosed with Type II diabetes.
NCT01228071
This is a multicenter, open-label, single arm trial to evaluate the time to eugonadal testosterone range after initial testosterone gel 2% application, time to steady state after after initiation of testosterone gel 2%, and drying time after application of testosterone gel 2%.
NCT01147744
To evaluate the efficacy, dose response and safety of four doses of GSK2190915 in tablet form (10mg, 30mg, 100mg and 300mg) administered once daily, over 8 weeks compared with placebo in adolescent and adult subjects (12 years of age and older) with persistent asthma. These data will form the basis for the selection of the optimal daily dose of GSK2190915 to be carried forward in Phase III asthma studies. The study also includes Fluticasone Propionate Inhalation Powder (100 mcg, twice daily) and Montelukast (10mg, once daily) to allow for an exploratory analysis of the efficacy of GSK2190915 versus a low dose inhaled corticosteroid and a leukotriene receptor antagonist.
NCT02939040
This study is to assess the feasibility of using a positive activities intervention, Positive Piggy Bank, in newly diagnosed women with breast cancer who will soon undergo surgery. A randomized controlled pilot trial of a brief self-guided positive activities intervention, The Positive Piggy Bank (PPB), compared to Treatment as Usual. The PPB intervention involves noting at least one positive event each day, writing it down on a slip of paper and then depositing this piece of paper in a piggy bank. This practice is to take place at the end of the day, every day over a circumscribed period of time. At the end of the "deposit period," in the case of this study after approximately 21 days, the participant "closes the account" and makes a full withdrawal by taking all of the slips out of the piggy bank and reading each one on the night before surgery.
NCT00659984
RATIONALE: Radioactive drugs, such as iodine I 131 metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG), may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. A bone marrow or peripheral stem cell transplant using stem cells from the patient may be able to replace blood-forming cells that were destroyed by I 131 MIBG. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of iodine I 131 MIBG followed by a stem cell transplant in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory high-risk neuroblastoma.
NCT01572142
The overarching goal of this prospective cohort study is to test the hypotheses that greater severity of hyposmia is associated with increased risk of cognitive decline in PD and that worsening hyposmia parallels progressive cholinergic limbic denervation. To achieve the goals of this project, patients with PD without dementia or at-risk of dementia or with dementia will undergo longitudinal olfactory, cognitive and clinical testing for 2-4 years. AChE \[11C\]PMP or VAchT (vesicular acetylcholine transporter) \[F18\]-FEOBV PET will be performed both at study entry and at 2-years (± 6 months) follow-up. Brain MRI scans will also be performed at study entry and at 2-years (± 6 months) follow-up. Brain Beta-amyloid PET will be performed at study entry or at 2 years (± 6 months). Annual olfactory testing will be performed to better understand dynamic changes underlying the clinical and PET outcome measures.
NCT02537028
The primary purpose of this Phase 1b double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), and biological effect of MSC2364447C administered for 4 weeks in systemic lupus erythematosus subjects (SLE).
NCT02396524
The Hockey Fans in Training (Hockey FIT) program aims to improve overweight men's physical fitness, eating habits and health-related lifestyle choices through a lifestyle modification program in collaboration with two Ontario Hockey League teams. In this pilot pragmatic randomized controlled trial, the investigators plan to explore the potential for Hockey FIT to reduce a clinically important amount of weight, increase physical activity levels, and lead to improvements in other health-related outcomes.
NCT02336685
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of fulranumab as adjunctive therapy compared with placebo in participants with chronic moderate to severe pain and functional impairment from knee or hip osteoarthritis that is not adequately controlled by current pain therapy.
NCT01499173
Getting to the hospital quickly is the key to treating stroke. African Americans suffer more strokes with worse outcomes and receive stroke treatments less often than European Americans. This project will work to reduce these health disparities by creating and testing the feasibility of a peer-led faith-based behavioral intervention in an African American community with a goal to increase calls to 911 so stroke patients can be treated quickly.
NCT01730027
This randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ADC3680 administered once daily as an add-on therapy to inhaled corticosteroids and when co-administered with montelukast in patients with inadequately-controlled asthma. Patients will be randomised to 3 Arms to receive ADC3680, placebo or montelukast.
NCT01483963
The objectives of this study are to assess the safety, effectiveness, and immunogenicity of AA4500 in the treatment of adhesive capsulitis.
NCT01570192
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate a low rate of emergence of antibiotic resistance in P. aeruginosa and Acinetobacter spp during the treatment of hospitalized patients with pneumonia requiring mechanical ventilation treated with PD optimized meropenem administered as a prolonged infusion in combination with a parenteral aminoglycoside plus tobramycin by inhalation (Group 1) compared to therapy with meropenem alone (Group 2 - control arm).
NCT00263341
The purpose of this 1-year study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new contraceptive vaginal ring (CVR) delivering low doses of Nestorone (NES), a new, nonandrogenic progestin, and ethinyl estradiol (EE), an estrogen used in oral contraceptives. The CVR, which is made of silicone rubber, is designed to be used for 1 year (13 menstrual cycles) before replacement is required.
NCT01437345
This study is an observational study that aims to advance our knowledge on infantile onset FSHD. The study will include 50 participants of all ages who have presented with symptoms of FSHD between birth and 10 years of age. Study participation will involve a single day of assessments at one of the participating CINRG centers (to include physical exam, cognitive testing, eye exam, hearing test, strength testing and speech evaluations). The procedures may be split over additional days for scheduling purposes.
NCT01221597
This study is a Phase 3, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of the safety and efficacy of AA4500 0.58 mg in subjects with Peyronie's disease. Approximately 400 (267 AA4500 and 133 placebo) men will be randomized. Subjects will be screened for study eligibility within 21 days before the initial injection of study drug in the first treatment cycle. Before dosing, subjects will be stratified by degree of penile curvature deformity (ie, 30º to 60º or 61º to 90º) and then randomized into two treatment groups to receive in a 2:1 ratio either AA4500 0.58 mg or placebo. In this study, qualified subjects may receive up to four treatment cycles; each cycle will be separated by a period of 42 days (± 5 days). During each treatment cycle, subjects will receive two injections of study drug with at least 24 hours but not more than 72 hours between injections. After the final injection of each treatment cycle, the investigator or qualified designee will model the penile plaque in an attempt to stretch or elongate the plaque. If the subject's penile curvature is reduced to \<15 degrees after the first, second, or third cycle of injections or if further treatment is not clinically indicated, subsequent treatment cycles will not be administered. Following the maximum of four treatment cycles, each subject will be followed for additional safety and efficacy assessments on Days 169 (± 7 days), 232 (± 7 days), 295 (± 7 days), 365 (± 7 days) (nominal weeks 24, 33, 42 and 52). Subjects randomized to placebo may receive open-label AA4500 treatment after completing this study as part of another protocol.
NCT01350479
Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) infections are a common cause of morbidity and mortality in nursing home residents. MRSA is predominantly spread from patient-to-patient by health care workers. The use of gowns, gloves and hand washing prevents this spread; however, their use detracts from a patient-centered, home-like environment which is an important priority for nursing homes. The goal of this project is to determine when it is most important for health care workers to wear gowns and to wash their hands when caring for MRSA colonized Veterans in community living centers.
NCT00586066
The purpose of this study is to see whether memantine improves memory function in participants with bipolar disorder who have minimal symptoms. Secondary analyses will test the role of memantine in improving residual mood symptoms (depression and mania) in participants with bipolar disorder. We hypothesize that in participants with bipolar disorder who have minimal symptoms memantine will be effective in improving cognitive functions, as measured by the difference in neuropsychological test scores at the beginning and at the end of the trial.
