NCT00423787
Ragweed MATAMPL has been developed by Allergy Therapeutics to provide pre-seasonal specific immunotherapy for patients with proven type I hypersensitivity to cross reacting ragweed pollens causing rhinitis and/or conjunctivitis with or without mild to moderate asthma bronchiale. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of Ragweed MATAMPL versus placebo in ragweed-allergic subjects following 4 subcutaneous injections of study medication administered before the start of the 2007 ragweed pollen season
NCT00666757
The purpose of this study is to compare duloxetine with other antidepressants in the treatment of severe depression.
NCT01026727
This phase 2b study is designed to assess the long-term efficacy (24 weeks) of MPC-4326 in combination with a 2-3 drug optimized background regimen (OBR) relative to the efficacy of a 3-4 antiretroviral (ARV) regimen in treatment experienced, HIV-1 infected subjects.
NCT00120861
This study is being conducted to compare the safety, effectiveness and tolerance of valopicitabine (NM283) when used alone and when valopicitabine is used together with pegylated interferon in hepatitis C treatment failure patients. These results will be compared against the results of treatment with pegylated interferon plus ribavirin, the current standard therapy for treatment of hepatitis C viral infection.
NCT00572559
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a commonplace complication of intensive care patients ventilated for longer than 48 hours. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is the cause of late onset VAP in up to about 30% of cases in US hospitals. Ineffective treatment of MRSA VAP clearly leads to prolonged mechanical ventilation and is probably associated with higher mortality. The purpose of this protocol is to directly compare linezolid and vancomycin specifically for MRSA VAP.
NCT00244712
This study was designed to test the safety and effectiveness of EPZICOM(abacavir/lamivudine) and TRUVADA (emtricitabine/tenofovir) for the treatment of HIV infection when both are used in combination with KALETRA (lopinavir/ritonavir) over 96 weeks
NCT01131000
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous ibuprofen on reducing fever at 4 hours.
NCT00016068
RATIONALE: Antivirals such as valganciclovir act against viruses and may be effective in preventing cytomegalovirus. It is not yet known if valganciclovir is effective in preventing cytomegalovirus. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying valganciclovir to see how well it works in preventing cytomegalovirus in patients who have undergone donor stem cell transplantation.
NCT00668525
This is a short-term study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of escitalopram in adult patients (18 to 65 years of age) with moderate to severe depression. Patients completing the study may be eligible to enter a long-term open-label extension study with escitalopram.
NCT00105859
Pressure ulcers are a serious, costly, and life-long complication of spinal cord injury (SCI). Pressure ulcer prevalence has been estimated at between 17 and 33% among persons with SCI residing in the community. Epidemiological studies have found that 36-50% of all persons with SCI who develop pressure ulcers will develop a recurrence within the first year after initial healing (Carlson et al., 1992; Fuhrer et al., 1993; Goldstein, 1998; Niazi et al., 1997; Salzberg et al. 1998). Recurrence rates have ranged from 21% to 79%, regardless of treatment (Schryvers et al., 2000; Goodman et al., 1999; Niazi et al., 1997). Pressure ulcer treatment is expensive. Surgical costs associated with pressure ulcer treatment can exceed $70,000 per case (Braun et al., 1992). VA administrative (National Patient Care Database, NPCD) data indicate that 41% of inpatient days in the SCI population are accounted for by either primary or secondary diagnoses of pressure ulcers or 23% of SCI inpatient days if restricted to primary diagnoses of pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcer recurrence has been associated with many factors including previous pressure ulcer surgery (Niazi et al., 1997). Although little data exist describing the factors associated with recurrence following surgery, some investigators reported recurrence rates of 11%-29% in cases with post-operative complications and 6% to 61% in cases without post-operative complications (Mandrekas \& Mastorakos, 1992; Relander \& Palmer, 1988; Disa et al., 1992). In a retrospective study of 48 veterans with SCI, investigators reported a 79% recurrence rate following surgery (Goodman et al., 1999).
NCT00350636
A new drug for overactive bladder is compared to placebo to determine if it is safe and effective. The study lasts approximately 12 weeks.
NCT00259012
The purpose of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles to determine the safety and tolerability of single and multiple doses of pantoprazole in infants aged 1 through 11 months.
NCT00365300
To assess the efficacy of pantoprazole for the treatment of infants with symptomatic Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD).
NCT00114972
The SYNTAX trial is designed to determine the best treatment for patients with complex coronary disease (blocked or narrowed arteries in both the right and left sides of the heart) by randomizing patients to receive either percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with polymer-based paclitaxel-eluting TAXUS stents or to coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG).
NCT00120835
This study is being conducted in treatment-naive patients (no previous hepatitis C treatment) to evaluate the safety of valopicitabine (NM283) alone and together with pegylated interferon, a drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of hepatitis C infection. This study is also evaluating the ability of valopicitabine to decrease the amount of hepatitis C virus in the body. The results for patients taking valopicitabine alone will be compared with the results for patients taking valopicitabine together with pegylated interferon.
NCT00555451
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerance and pharmacokinetics of HE3286 when administered daily for 28 days to obese adult subjects and to assess potential activity of HE3286 to decrease insulin resistance. An open-label cohort of 6 patients with type II diabetes mellitus will be treated at 10 mg (5 mg BID).
NCT00868296
The purpose of this study is to provide additional information on safety and tolerability after multiple does of pantoprazole. Only patients who successfully completed the 3001B3-331 study (NCT00362609) or 3001B3-333 study (NCT00259012) are eligible to participate in this study.
NCT00321152
The purpose of the study is to test whether oral 6(S)-5-MTHF (Deplin®) is safe and effective in relieving depression when it is added to standard kinds of antidepressants called serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).
NCT00902252
The purpose of this clinical study is to demonstrate that the Vitala™ Continence Control Device is both safe and effective when worn up to 12 hours per day.
NCT01113606
The aims of the Skin Product Assessment Research study were to (1) develop an infrastructure and process for industry-sponsored, Plastic Surgery Educational Foundation (PSEF) research in facial aesthetic surgery and (2) test the research process by comparing outcomes of the Obagi Nu-Derm System (ODNS) and conventional therapy as treatment adjuncts in ablative facial resurfacing.
