NCT00367133
The study involves the enrollment of patients over 18 years of age with diabetic macular edema(DME). Patients with one study eye will be randomly assigned (stratified by visual acuity and prior laser) with equal probability to one of the three treatment groups: 1. Laser photocoagulation 2. 1mg intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection 3. 4mg intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection For patients with two study eyes (both eyes eligible at the time of randomization), the right eye (stratified by visual acuity and prior laser) will be randomly assigned with equal probabilities to one of the three treatment groups listed above. The left eye will be assigned to the alternative treatment (laser or triamcinolone). If the left eye is assigned to triamcinolone, then the dose (1mg or 4 mg) will be randomly assigned to the left eye with equal probability (stratified by visual acuity and prior laser). The study drug, triamcinolone acetonide, has been manufactured as a sterile intravitreal injectable by Allergan. Study eyes assigned to an intravitreal triamcinolone injection will receive a dose of either 1mg or 4mg. There is no indication of which treatment regimen will be better. Patients enrolled into the study will be followed for three years and will have study visits every 4 months after receiving their assigned study treatment. In addition, standard of care post-treatment visits will be performed at 4 weeks after each intravitreal injection.
NCT01594424
In this Phase I/II trial, 10 highly sensitized patients will be entered after informed consent and will receive Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) at 2 gm/kg + Tocilizumab 8 mg/kg x 5 doses on days 15, 45, 75, 105, 119, 135, and 149. If robust reductions in anti-HLA antibody are seen, patients will progress to kidney transplantation when an "acceptable" crossmatch is achieved with a living donor (LD) or deceased donor (DD). Those receiving transplants will also receive Tocilizumab infusion monthly X7 doses post-transplant. All subjects will have intensive monitoring of Donor Specific Antibodies (DSA), viral PCRs, and routine post-transplant labs. At 6 months post-transplant, those who have retained their transplanted kidney will have a protocol biopsy.
NCT01033734
This open-label study will assess the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics and safety of intravenous (iv) Tamiflu (oseltamivir) in 3 cohorts of children, aged 6-12, 3-5 and 1-2 years, with influenza infection. Patients will receive iv Tamiflu therapy for 5 days (10 doses). For patients whose conditions no longer merit continued iv dosing, therapy may be switched to oral Tamiflu to complete their prescribed course of treatment. If medically necessary, iv or oral therapy with Tamiflu may be continued for up to 5 additional days. Anticipated time on study treatment is 5 to 10 days.
NCT00263120
The thymus is known to be the site of T cell development in humans. Due to its location in the chest in front of the heart, incidental thymecomy is commonly performed during cardiothoracic surgery, especially in infants and children, so that surgeons may gain access to the surgical field. This practice has been considered safe because it was thought that the thymus is inactive after birth. However, recent data using newly developed techniques has demonstrated that the thymus normally is active well into adulthood. In addition, in a previous study (UCLA IRB # 02-03-008-02) we have demonstrated alterations in lymphocyte (T cells) number in individuals who have undergone thymectomy in childhood but we do not know how immunity is affected. We plan to investigate if immune development or immune function later in life is affected by the loss of T cell production caused by thymectomy during cardiothoracic surgical procedures in childhood. At UCLA, a large number of patients are seen who have congenital heart disease and undergo surgical procedures for correction or repair and many children and adults are followed for many years after they have undergone surgical procedures. Subjects for study will be recruited from among these patients. We propose a study which will examine the number and activity of lymphocytes obtained from blood samples from child and young adult subjects who have undergone surgery in early childhood. We will determine if these subjects have had complete thymectomy in the past using CT or MRI (obtained during routine care) or, for subjects who are having cardiothoracic surgery, by visualization of thymic tissue during the procedure. In addition we will give vaccination for a common viral illness (hepatitis A) and measure immune responses to it (from a blood sample). As part of this study, we will ask for medical information consisting of a history of congenital cardiac disease and other diagnoses (such as asthma), a history of infections and hospitalizations, and information about immunizations. We will also ask about a list of specific symptoms which will give us information about the function of the immune system.
NCT01575561
This is an open-label, multi-center,12 week extension study designed to evaluate the longer term safety, tolerability and effectiveness of lurasidone, flexibly dosed, adjunctive to lithium or divalproex for the treatment of subjects with bipolar I disorder, who have either completed the core study D1050296 or experienced a protocol defined recurrence of a mood event in the double-blind phase of the core study D1050296
NCT00662584
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a noninvasive method that holds promise for treating several psychiatric disorders. Yet the most effective location and parameters for treatment need more exploration. Also, whether rTMS is an effective treatment for individuals with a DSM-IV diagnosis of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) has not been empirically tested. The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate whether fMRI guided rTMS is effective in reducing symptoms of GAD.
NCT00742755
Develop and evaluate a peer navigator intervention to assist Korean women with a potential breast abnormality, who have missed their first follow-up appointment, to complete all diagnostic follow-up tests.
NCT01937715
This is a multicenter, open label Phase 1b/2 study in patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma. The Phase 1b will identify the dose of the combination of PF-05212384 plus FOLFIRI. The randomized, two-arm Phase 2 portion will compare the efficacy and safety of PF-05212384 plus FOLFIRI to that of bevacizumab plus FOLFIRI. The study population will consist of patients with mCRC previously treated with an oxaliplatin-based regimen in the first line setting or who have progressed within 6 months of the end of an adjuvant oxaliplatin-based regimen.
NCT01946217
This pilot research trial studies factors affecting patient participation in Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) Malignancy Clinical Trials Consortium clinical trials. Determining how patients makes decisions about participating in a clinical trial may help doctors plan clinical trials in which more patients are willing to participate and are satisfied with their decision to participate.
NCT00967304

NCT00701636
This investigation is a prospective, open-label pharmacokinetic study of daptomycin prophylaxis in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery without valvular replacement.
NCT02034071
• This is a single-center, open-label, single-arm study with a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized withdrawal extension. Patients are initiated on a DCCR dose of about 1.5 mg/kg (maximum starting dose of 145 mg) and are titrated every 14 days to about 2.4 mg/kg, 3.3 mg/kg, 4.2 mg/kg, and 5.1 mg/kg (maximum dose of 507.5 mg). These DCCR doses are equivalent to diazoxide doses of 1.03, 1.66, 2.28, 2.9, and 3.52 mg/kg. The administered dose will be as close to the mg/kg dosing as can be achieved by the available dose strengths of DCCR. Patients will be up-titrated at each visit at the discretion of the investigator. All patients will be continued in the double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized withdrawal extension. Any patient who showed an increase in resting energy expenditure and/or a reduction in hyperphagia from Baseline through Day 55 or Day 69 will be designated a responder, whereas all others will be designated non-responders. Responders will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio either to continue on active treatment at the dose they were treated with on Day 69 or to the placebo equivalent of that dose for an additional 4 weeks. Non-responders will continue open label treatment during the extension.
