NCT00496769
The purpose of this clinical research study is to determine whether apixaban is more effective than acetylsalicylic acid in the prevention of strokes associated with patients with atrial fibrillation. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
NCT00883857
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new monitor that measures cardiac output (amount of blood pumped by the heart). The system that is being tested in this study, called Endotracheal Cardiac Output Monitor (ECOM), uses electricity (impedance cardiography) to measure cardiac output and is not harmful to the patient. This study will test the accuracy and efficacy of the ECOM system in anesthetized and sedated patients who, in the normal course of clinical care in the OR or ICU, are having cardiac output measured. The investigators propose that unlike the standard system for cardiac output measurement, the ConMed ECOM System should result in a simplified, inexpensive, continuous, less-invasive, and accurate method of measuring cardiac output. Such a technique could allow the rapid diagnosis of instability in the cardiovascular system for critically ill patients.
NCT00920764
The study objective is to investigate the effects of three low doses of atrasentan on urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) levels in subjects with Type 2 diabetic nephropathy. Patients with Type 2 diabetes with nephropathy must be receiving a renin-angiotensin system inhibitor, such as an Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or an Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB) for participation in this study. ACEi and ARB treatment are the standard of care for the management of proteinuria in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients.
NCT01113957
The purpose of this study is to determine the objective response rate of ABT-888 when given in combination with temozolomide versus pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) alone in subjects with recurrent high grade serous ovarian cancer.
NCT00383292
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the objective response rate (complete and partial response) for participants who receive tasisulam after one prior systemic treatment for unresectable or metastatic melanoma.
NCT00392834
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving rituximab together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving rituximab together with combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed, HIV-associated Burkitt's lymphoma.
NCT00090987
RATIONALE: Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well imatinib mesylate works in treating patients with HIV-related Kaposi's sarcoma.
NCT01077700
This is an efficacy and safety study evaluating an experimental treatment for cognitive deficits in adults with schizophrenia.
NCT03469141
The goal of this module project is to establish the efficacy of a portable sensor and app-based biofeedback technology system for promoting effective pressure relief behaviors and reducing risk of pressure ulcer development among wheelchair users. In collaboration with the participating SCIMS centers, the investigators will conduct a randomized clinical trial of education and goal setting alone compared to education and goal setting combined with the biofeedback system (SENSIMAT®) that is commercially available.
NCT00878605
The purpose of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness and safety of a new anti-diabetes drug (Cyclo-Z) for the prevention and treatment of Type 2 diabetes. This study will determine dose-dependent efficacy and safety of this new drug for the treatment of human diabetes. The Food and Drug Administration has granted approval for the use of this investigational product to be used in a study \[FDA approval (Investigational New Drug) IND #: 61,897\]. This new drug is thought to work by increasing the amount of zinc in your body, which in turn should improve your sugar metabolism. If this study successfully proves that Cyclo-Z is effective for the treatment of diabetes and is without significant side effects, a large, multi-center study of diabetic patients will then be performed.
NCT02004262
Test the safety, immune response and efficacy of GVAX pancreas vaccine (with cyclophosphamide) and CRS-207 compared to chemotherapy or CRS-207 alone in adults with previously treated metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma
NCT02878980
This clinical trial studies how well an exercise intervention works in reducing symptoms and improving clinical outcomes in patients with ovarian cancer undergoing platinum-based chemotherapy. Exercise may "train" the body to repair deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage more efficiently, which may reduce symptoms related to platinum-based chemotherapy, improve quality of life, increase survival, and decrease recurrence rates in patients with ovarian cancer.
NCT02533570
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of brentuximab vedotin in adults with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
NCT03292848
A study to assess pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of brexpiprazole in children ages 6 to \<13 years with CNS disorders.
NCT02392234
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of VX-661 in combination with ivacaftor (IVA, VX-770) and IVA monotherapy in participants with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) who are heterozygous for F508del-CFTR allele and a second allele with a CFTR mutation predicted to have residual function.
NCT03404817
This is a study of EMB-001 (a combination of two FDA-approved drugs, metyrapone and oxazepam) in healthy adults.This is a Phase 1, single dose, 3-period, 3-sequence, crossover study in 9 healthy male and female (not of childbearing potential) volunteers. The study will evaluate the bioavailability and food effect of a new formulation of EMB-001 relative to the original formulation of EMB 001. During the study, a total of 9 eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to each of 3 treatment sequences
NCT01457924
Ofatumumab is a novel Immunoglobulin 1ĸ ( IgG1ĸ) lytic monoclonal antibody (mAb) that specifically binds to the human Cluster of Differentiation 20 (CD20) antigen of which expression is restricted to B lymphocytes from the pre-B cell stage to the plasmacytoid immunoblast stage only. A recent trial with an anti-CD20 mAb (rituximab) demonstrated that targeting B-cells reduces the number of gadolinium-enhancing (GdE) T1 lesions and the relapse rate in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). Ofatumumab has been shown to be both well tolerated and efficacious in several indications, including a small, placebo-controlled trial in RRMS using an intravenous (IV) formulation. This double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study will investigate the safety and efficacy of a subcutaneous formulation of ofatumumab in the treatment of subjects with RRMS. The primary objective of the study is to investigate the efficacy as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging. Other objectives will include evaluation of tolerability/safety, dose-response relationship, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, exposure-response, as well as other clinical endpoints.
NCT00753272
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals' influenza vaccine GSK2186877A in adults 65 year of age and older. The study design is divided in two surveillance phases: one passive phase along the study during the influenza season and one active surveillance phase during the influenza peak season.
NCT00600002
The application of immunotherapeutic strategies that target the most potent antigen presenting cell, the dendritic cell (DC), are likely to substantially increase the magnitude of the anti-tumor immune response. Although there are issues of activation state and antigen load, mechanisms to increase the number of DCs available to the immune system are among the first steps in development of affective DC based immunotherapeutic strategies. The Central Hypothesis of our study is: Administration of Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) to patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma will result in enhance recruitment of DCs to the sentinel lymph node, into the peripheral blood, and/or tumor site. We propose performing a phase I, dose escalation, clinical trial of systemic and intra-tumoral GM-CSF administration for the treatment of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. This trial will be designed to assess toxicity and immunologic effects, principally dendritic cell recruitment. Patients with resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma by clinical staging criteria will be eligible for enrollment. The trial we propose is a phase I clinical trial of the addition of GM-CSF as a biological adjuvant to standard care for patients with potentially resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
