NCT00002805
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome in first relapse or who did not achieve first remission.
NCT00002740
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow doctors to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus peripheral stem cell transplantation followed by surgery and/or radiation therapy in treating young patients who have newly diagnosed advanced neuroblastoma.
NCT00955279
This study tests the safety and effectiveness of ustekinumab or golimumab compared to placebo (placebo looks like the drugs being studied, but has no active ingredients). The purpose of this research study is to determine if ustekinumab or golimumab is safe and to determine its effects (good and bad) on patients with chronic sarcoidosis with pulmonary and/or skin involvement. Patients with pulmonary involvement constitute the primary population for analysis, and patients with skin involvement constitute the secondary population; a patient may be in both populations. The study will be conducted at approximately 40 sites globally.
NCT01107886
The purpose of this study is to determine whether saxagliptin can reduce the risk of cardiovascular events when used alone or added to other diabetes medications
NCT01076452
The goal of the second phase of the study is to determine if simultaneous bilateral subthalamic nucleus stimulation or simultaneous bilateral globus pallidus stimulation is more effective in reducing symptoms of Parkinson's Disease.
NCT01716182
This is a post-marketing, on-label Efficacy, Effectiveness and Safety Study designed in a Multicenter, Randomized, Prospective format. This study compares two spinal fusion procedures, Transacral Interbody Fusion and Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF). Enrollment period will be approximately 12-18 months; each Principal Investigator/Study Center will be expected to enroll up to 20 subjects. The protocol requires approximately 7 subject visits to the study center from screening through the final follow-up visit.
NCT00654433
Eligible research subjects will receive an unrelated umbilical cord blood transfusion as a possible cure for their inherited metabolic disease. A portion of cord blood cells (ALD-101) will be separated from the cord blood unit and given approximately 4 hours after the standard cord blood transfusion. The study will test if the supplemental cells will increase the speed at which normal levels of circulating blood cells are re-established after transplant.
NCT00975143
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of CIP-Isotretinoin and a marketed (generic) formulation of isotretinoin when both are administered twice daily with meals.
NCT01941173
This pilot clinical trial studies short-infusion ziv-aflibercept in treating patients with metastatic colorectal cancer receiving combination chemotherapy. Ziv-aflibercept may stop the growth of colorectal cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving the drug over a shorter infusion time may result in improved efficiency and patient satisfaction.
NCT01511458
The purpose of this blinded, multi-center, prospective, case-controlled study is to compare the Ariosa Harmony™ Prenatal Test for trisomy 21 detection with a standard first-trimester prenatal screening test consisting of serum screening (PAPP-A,free beta-hCG \[β-hCG\] or total hCG) and a nuchal translucency (NT) measurement (i.e. combined first trimester screening) in a general screened population. The performance characteristics of these two test modalities will be assessed relative to the clinical reference standard of genetic analysis of the fetus or phenotypic characterization and genetic analysis of the newborn.
NCT01327014
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of XueZhiKang to improve plasma lipid profile, as compared to placebo, in outpatients with hyperlipidemia.
NCT02194114
The primary purpose of this study is to assess dietary protein requirements in clinically stable maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. It is hypothesized that the average dietary protein intake (DPI) that will maintain nitrogen balance is 1.00 g protein/kg/day, but that a safe intake that maintains balance in almost all MHD patients is about 1.25g protein/kg/day.
NCT00708604
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of islet transplantation in patients with type 1 diabetes who have had a successful kidney transplant and have been maintained for at least three months on anti-rejection medications consisting of any combination of sirolimus, tacrolimus, MMF or prednisone (5 mg/day or less). Another purpose is to determine the effectiveness of an islet transplant in inducing insulin independence and whether or not an islet transplant improves quality of life for kidney transplants patients with type 1 diabetes.
NCT00467844
The purpose of this study is to assess if Gtx-024 is effective in increasing lean body mass in subjects with muscle wasting related to cancer.
NCT02190877
This study is designed to validate ease-of-use for the CoVa Monitoring System, along with simple statistical parameters such as reproducibility and inter-subject agreement between test and reference devices.
NCT00811473
The purpose of this study is to determine if quetiapine fumarate extended-release (quetiapine XR or SEROQUEL® XR) 150 to 300 mg/day taken by itself is effective and safe in treating children or adolescents aged 10 to 17 with bipolar depression and if so, how it compares with placebo (a non-active tablet, like a sugar pill, that looks like quetiapine).
NCT00071422
Insulin is a chemical that the body needs in order to use or store sugar. It is made by a type of cell called a beta cell which resides in an organ known as the pancreas. Type 2 diabetes is a disease where the beta cells are unable to meet a person's insulin needs. Sugar levels rise in the blood as a result. INGAP-Peptide is being tested to attempt to create new beta cells in the pancreas, and to improve the ability to produce insulin in type 2 diabetic patients.
NCT00882258
Two (2) dose levels of Proellex or placebo will be administered once-daily for up to 91 days. Following screening and a pre-treatment endometrial biopsy, subjects will be followed monthly for the three month treatment phase.
NCT01714544
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Cloderm Cream is effective for topical treatment of moderate psoriasis over 28 days.
NCT00235716
The purpose of this study is to determine whether alpha-tocopherol, memantine (Namenda), or the combination will significantly delay clinical progression in mild to moderately demented patients with Alzheimer's disease compared to placebo.
