NCT00106899
The purpose of this study is to examine how brain imaging technology can be used with other tests to measure the progression of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and early Alzheimer's disease (AD). This information will aid future clinical trials by providing a standard assessment tool to measure the effects of treatments being studied.
NCT00639418
The purpose of this study is to describe flu vaccine coverage in children under 18 years of age and to examine correlations between in-office flu vaccine coverage and the use of various tactics to increase vaccine coverage.
NCT00658723
The effectiveness objective of this study is to evaluate whether Fibrin Patch is superior to SURGICEL™ as an adjunct to achieving hemostasis during surgical procedures involving soft tissue bleeding in abdominal, pelvic, retroperitoneal and (non-cardiac) thoracic surgery.
NCT00506597
The goal of this clinical research study is to allow doctors to use Erwinia L-Asparaginase (Erwinase®) as a replacement for patients who are allergic to E.coli L-asparaginase or Pegylated E.coli L-asparaginase as part of the treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or T or B cell lymphoma. This trial was part of a multi institutional effort by the drug company to make Erwinase available for use.
NCT00313716
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of early administration of recombinant human erythropoietin on long-term neurological outcome after severe traumatic brain injury.
NCT00939003
This study will evaluate how well adalimumab works in the short and long term in patients with axial spondyloarthritis who are not diagnosed as having either ankylosing spondylitis or psoriatic arthritis.
NCT00060944
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of an investigational chemotherapy agent in patients with types of advanced cancer referred to as liposarcoma or leiomyosarcoma.
NCT00041938
The purpose of this study is to determine which of two treatments, Warfarin or aspirin, is better for preventing death and stroke in patients with poor heart function. We are now transitioning into the sub-analysis part of the WARCEF patient data. The study has recently completed data analysis for its Primary Aim. All randomized patients have completed their follow up. All study related procedure as per the protocol has been completed. We are now in the extension phase of the study to obtain more patient data to address further aims of the study. No new procedures are performed and data already in place at the sites will be collected (EKG and echocardiograms). The aims for this study extension are: * To assess progression of cardiac dysfunction over time among heart failure patients * To correlate prognosis with cardiac dysfunction
NCT00811954
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) guidelines recommend that HIV infected patients who have never received anti-HIV therapy be treated with a triple drug regimen. The most commonly prescribed and successful regimen contains the medication efavirenz (EFV). However, this regimen may not be an option for everyone, hence alternative regimens are needed. This study was designed to look at how well different combinations of anti-HIV drugs work to decrease the amount of HIV in the blood (viral load) of and allow immune system recovery in people who have never received anti-HIV therapy. This study also examined drug tolerability and safety for the various drug combinations.
NCT01841463
* An Open Label, Multicenter, Phase I Extension Study of an Oral Cdk Inhibitor P1446A-05 Administered with an Oral BRAF Inhibitor Vemurafenib (Zelboraf®) in Patients with Advanced or Inoperable Malignant Melanoma with BRAF Mutation * The primary objective is to determine the safety, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of the co-administration of P1446A-05 with vemurafenib, in melanoma patients with BRAF mutation
NCT00549796
Angioplasty is a procedure which opens blocked heart arteries using balloons and/or stents. Most U.S. states and all national heart organizations require that angioplasty be done only at hospitals that can also perform open heart surgery. The reason for this is that there is a risk that angioplasty can cause injury to the heart artery that might require open heart surgery to fix. Open heart surgery is a backup in case it is needed. The risk that open heart surgery will be needed is very small. Nevertheless, without more research, many state Departments of Health and all national heart organizations do not want to change the requirement for having on-site open heart surgery wherever angioplasty is performed. Some States already allow this; and European heart organizations already allow it, as well. This study is designed to determine whether the safety and benefits of angioplasty are the same at hospitals that perform angioplasty either with or without open heart surgery backup. Patient who enter the study have a heart catheterization at a hospital without a heart surgery program. If they need angioplasty, then they are randomized to either stay at the hospital without heart surgery for their angioplasty or to be transferred for the procedure to a hospital with heart surgery. For every four patients, three stay at the hospital without heart surgery and one is transferred. The study is designed to show that there is no detectable difference between the safety and benefits of the procedure at the two types of hospital (with and without heart surgery). The cost of the procedure at the two hospital types is also compared.
NCT00378612
ACROSS-Cypher® is a prospective, multi-center, open label, single arm study of the Cypher® sirolimus eluting coronary stent in native total coronary occlusion revascularization. The primary endpoint is binary angiographic restenosis at 6 months. The TOSCA-1 trial will be used as the historical control. The hypothesis is that compared with TOSCA-1 patients who were treated with the heparin-coated Palmaz Schatz stent, treatment with the Cypher® sirolimus eluting coronary stent will result in a \>50% relative reduction in 6 month restenosis within the treated segment of the target vessel.
NCT01058005
This was a multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group, active-controlled study. Prior to randomization, participants were to have been treated with glatiramer acetate or interferon β-1a (44 μg). Participants were to be randomized to receive natalizumab, interferon β-1a 44 μg, or glatiramer acetate.
NCT00419393
To provide continued treatment of Keppra XR (Levetiracetam XR) and to assess the long term safety of Keppra XR in subjects with partial onset seizures.
NCT00419094
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of two doses of Keppra XR compared with a historical control as the placebo, in the monotherapy treatment of partial onset seizures.
NCT00264537
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of golimumab, alone or in combination with methotrexate, as compared to methotrexate alone in rheumatoid arthritis subjects who have not been previously treated with methotrexate.
NCT01435720
The purpose of this study is to determine how well SNS01-T is tolerated by relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, B cell lymphoma or plasma cell leukemia patients when given by intravenous infusion at various doses.
NCT00742625
This phase II trial studies the side effects and best dose of bortezomib when given together with daunorubicin and cytarabine and to see how well it works in treating older patients with previously untreated acute myeloid leukemia. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as daunorubicin and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving bortezomib together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.
NCT01292187
The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of oral calcitonin (rsCT)tablets in the prevention of bone loss in postmenopausal women with lower bone mineral density at increased risk of fracture. The secondary purpose of this study was to determine if there is any food effect by comparing the efficacy and safety of oral calcitonin tablets administered at dinner or at bedtime.
NCT00993148
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel combination antiretroviral therapy regimen consisting of maraviroc plus darunavir/ritonavir in treatment-naive patients infected with R5-tropic HIV-1. The hypothesis is that in treatment-naive subjects infected with R5-tropic HIV-1, combination antiretroviral therapy with maraviroc plus darunavir/ritonavir is well tolerated and efficacious.
