NCT02757183
The "INTELLIH" (brand name of the mobile health application) Diabetes Study is to understand the usage of a mobile health application, IntelliH, and connected wireless devices such as glucometer by the diabetic patients and ascertain if there are any improvements in short-term health outcomes.
NCT00212329
Type 1 diabetes is a condition that is caused in part by an abnormality of the immune system which occurs when T cells, which are part of the immune system, damage the insulin secreting cells (islet cells) in the pancreas. Although it is known that T cells are important mediators of the disease, progress in the development of reliable T cell assays has been modest. The purpose of this study is to learn which T cell assays are most reliable and reproducible so that the investigators can improve their understanding about how type 1 diabetes occurs.
NCT01983917
Prospective study to evaluate whether or not an internet application to coordinate and record diabetes management by the 1. diabetic patient/family caregiver 2. diabetic medical care team and 3. ophthalmology vision care team will decrease vision loss and blindness due to diabetic retinopathy. The aims will be measured through health psychology instruments to assess the effect of the application on management, motivation to control their disease, and commitment to comply with treatment. We will also measure objective health outcomes including Blood Pressure, Blood lipids level, hemoglobin A1c level, and Visual Acuity.
NCT01008566
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of cixutumumab when given together with sorafenib tosylate in treating patients with advanced liver cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cixutumumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving cixutumumab together with sorafenib tosylate may kill more tumor cells.
NCT01360203
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of implementing wireless remote monitoring combined with structured telephone monitoring, versus current care, on variation in rehospitalization among older patients hospitalized with heart failure at six medical centers.

NCT02392676
Olaparib administered as monotherapy in the maintenance setting improves progression free survival compared to placebo in patients whose tumours carry loss of function (deleterious or suspected deleterious) somatic BRCA mutations or loss of function (deleterious or suspected deleterious) mutation in non-BRCA Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) -associated genes who have a complete or partial response to platinum-based chemotherapy.
NCT00483574

Safety Objective: To describe the safety profile of two doses of Menactra® Vaccine.
NCT02004392
This is a 26-week, randomized extension of the Phase 3 double-blind placebo-controlled studies, EVP-6124-024 and EVP-6124-025. In this extension study, subjects who complete study EVP-6124-024 or EVP-6124-025 and fulfill all entry criteria will be randomized to receive EVP-6124 for an additional 26 weeks.
NCT00303485
This study will determine the rapidity of suppression of the bone resorption marker sCTX in post-menopausal women with osteoporosis.Other bone turnover markers will also be evaluated. Patients will be randomised to either monthly Boniva 150mg or placebo, in combination with vitamin D and calcium supplementation. The anticipated time on study treatment is approximately 7 months, and the target sample size is \<100 individuals.
NCT01669174
This study will assess the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of BYM338 in patients with COPD and cachexia. The primary outcome will be a change in thigh muscle volume compared to placebo. The study will last for approximately 24 weeks.
NCT00658632
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of Rabeprazole (RAB) Extended-Release (ER) 50 mg versus Esomeprazole (ESO) 40 mg in subjects with erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease (eGERD).
NCT01421472
To demonstrate whether addition of MM-121 to paclitaxel is more effective than treatment with paclitaxel alone, when administered as part of the neoadjuvant treatment in Her2 negative locally advanced operable breast cancer patients.
NCT02174263
This phase II trial studies how well tocilizumab works in treating chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients that have not responded to treatment after at least two prior therapies. Tocilizumab blocks a protein that stimulates the body's immune system. By blocking this protein, the investigators may reduce the symptoms of chronic GVHD.
NCT02002689
The purpose of this signal seeking study is to determine whether treatment with LDE225 demonstrates sufficient efficacy in hedgehog pathway-mutated solid tumors and/or hematologic malignancies to warrant further study
NCT00681291
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, third-party blinded, multicenter, interventional evaluation of inguinal hernia repair comparing Strattice to light weight polypropylene mesh. Performance and outcomes measures to be compared include postoperative resumption of activities of daily living, nature and incidence of short- and long-term pain and complications, and incidence of hernia recurrence.
NCT00669331
No gold standard therapy exists for clearing mucus from the airways of patients with bronchiectasis. While rhDNase has a proven place in the treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF), it failed to improve Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) in a short-term non-CF bronchiectasis study and has been shown to be detrimental after 6 months therapy in non CF bronchiectasis, moreover it has no proven effect on mucociliary clearance. Hypertonic saline has been shown to have a comparable mode of action to inhaled mannitol, but has yet to be examined as a long term treatment option in bronchiectasis. The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of 52 weeks treatment with inhaled mannitol in subjects with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. Previous studies with inhaled mannitol have demonstrated improvement in mucociliary clearance; mucus rehydration; improvement in quality of life and respiratory symptoms in patients with bronchiectasis and pulmonary function in cystic fibrosis. The results of this current study in combination with a recently completed 3 month study seek to confirm these early findings and to extend the evidence to support its use as a mucoactive therapy in subjects with bronchiectasis. We hypothesize that mannitol will improve the overall health and hygiene of the lung through regular and effective clearing of the mucus load. As a consequence of the reduction in mucus load and inflammatory process, the frequency of bronchiectasis related pulmonary exacerbations and the need for exacerbation related antibiotic treatment should fall. Days in hospital and community health care costs are expected to change in line with improvements in respiratory health. Finally, we plan to demonstrate that inhaled mannitol is safe and well tolerated over a 52 week period. We will test these hypotheses using 400 mg mannitol twice daily (BD) against control.
NCT00529464
Primary objectives 1. To conduct a randomized clinical trial of the emerging technology fluorescence and reflectance spectroscopy, comparing colposcopy to colposcopy + spectroscopy in the diagnostic setting, stratifying patients by outside Papanicolaou (Pap) smear of low grade and high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions, and to use multispectral digital colposcopy retrospectively. The number of clinically read referral Paps, clinically read UT MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) Paps, quantitatively read Paps, quantitatively read biopsies, point probe fluorescence/reflectance spectroscopy, and the multi-spectral digital colposcopy image, that shows a possible cancer, High-grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (HGSIL), Low-grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (LGSIL), or changes less than LGSIL to colposcopically directed biopsies at the first visit, Loop Electrical Excision Procedure (LEEP) at the second visit if needed, repeat evaluations at 6, 12, and 18 months that have Paps, or Paps + Endocervical Curettage or sample of the cervical canal + possible biopsy, and at the 24 month visit when all patients will at minimum have a Pap and an Endocervical Curettage for certain, and a cervical biopsy if any colposcopic abnormality is present. 2. To see if optical spectroscopy using both the point probe and the multi-spectral device improves diagnosis by improving specificity over colposcopy alone. 1. To study the number of colposcopically directed biopsies that show High-grade Squamous Intraepithelial or cancer. 2. To study the number of LEEP specimens that show HGSIL or cancer.
