NCT00000393
To study the safety, toxicology, and activity of Peptide T (D-Ala-1-peptide-T-amide) in humans and to find out more about the ability of peptide T to prevent, halt, and/or reverse AIDS-associated immunologic disturbances. Recent information suggests that the central nervous system (CNS) is often impaired in HIV-infected individuals. The dysfunction of the CNS may be either a direct or an indirect result of HIV infection. One method to prevent HIV infection is to block entry of the virus into the cells of the body. Peptide T shows laboratory evidence of blocking the entrance of HIV into cells that are susceptible to HIV infection. Studies that have been done indicate that peptide T is nontoxic in the doses that are used in this study. AIDS patients with minimal (group 1) or moderate (group 2) cognitive dysfunction (mental impairment) receive an increasing schedule of three dosage levels of peptide T. All patients receive an intravenous (IV) dose of peptide T for 10 days followed by the intermediate dose and then the highest dose, each intravenously for 10 days. Following successful completion of 3 IV doses, four patients participate in an intranasal pharmacokinetic (blood level study) dosage trial of 3 doses (different from IV) of peptide T once for each of 3 successive days. Follow-up continues for up to 1 year.

NCT01499199
ING116070 is a Phase IIIb single-arm, open-label, multicenter study. The study will be conducted in approximately 14 HIV-1 infected antiretroviral therapy (ART)-naïve subjects. Subjects who fulfill eligibility requirements will receive dolutegravir (DTG) 50 mg once daily in combination with the fixed dose dual nucleoside reverse transcripatase inhibitor(NRTI) abacavir/lamivudine (ABC/3TC) for 96 weeks. One pair of pharmacokinetic (PK) samples in plasma and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) (matching time) for determination of DTG concentration will be collected at Week 2 and Week 16. Samples for plasma HIV-1 RNA will be collected at Baseline and various time points throughout the study and samples for HIV-1 RNA levels in the CSF will be collected at Baseline, Week 2 and Week 16. Safety, additional measures of antiviral activity and development of viral resistance will also be evlauated. The primary analysis will take place after the last subject completes 16 weeks on therapy; additional analyses will be conducted after the last subject completes Weeks 2 and 96 (end of study).
NCT01660477
The purpose of this two part study is to assess the effect of multiple doses of isavuconazole on the pharmacokinetics of multiple doses of lopinavir/ritonavir and the effect of multiple doses of lopinavir/ritonavir on the pharmacokinetics of isavuconazole. Part 1 of the study includes 12 subjects randomized to receive either isavuconazole alone or isavuconazole in combination with lopinavir/ritonavir. The purpose of Part 1 is to evaluate safety and tolerability and to establish the effect of multiple doses of lopinavir/ritonavir on isavuconazole. Part 2, if initiated, includes 54 subjects randomized to receive isavuconazole alone, lopinavir/ritonavir alone, or isavuconazole in combination with lopinavir/ritonavir.
NCT01789957
This multicenter, open-label extension study of Protocol 2993-112 is designed to assess long-term glucose control as measured by HbA1c (glycosylated hemoglobin) and to evaluate long-term safety and tolerability in subjects treated with metformin who receive subcutaneously injected AC2993 (10 mcg) administered twice daily. Subjects completing Protocol 2993-112 are eligible to enroll.
NCT01445899
This is a two-part study. The first part (Stratum I) is an open-label, dose escalation, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic study, where active study drug (PF-04523655) will be given to all patients who participate. Stratum I will determine the maximum tolerated dose and any dose-limiting toxicities. The second part (Stratum II) is a prospectively randomized, multi-center, double-masked, dose ranging study evaluating the efficacy and safety of PF-04523655 alone and in combination with ranibizumab versus ranibizumab alone in patients with DME.

NCT01605292
Radial artery access for cardiac catheterization can require multiple attempts. Multiple attempts increase the time required, patient discomfort, and the risk of arterial spasm. Ultrasound guidance has been shown in other studies to reduce the number of attempts and complications in central venous and femoral artery access. This study will test if the addition of ultrasound guidance reduces the number of attempts and time required to access the radial artery.

NCT01521507
The study objective is to evaluate the long-term treatment effectiveness for adult patients with meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) and evaporative dry eye by: 1) comparing the LipiFlow® System to a standardized daily warm compress and eyelid hygiene control therapy over a duration of 3 Months; and 2) evaluating the LipiFlow® alone and in combination with other MGD and dry eye treatments over a duration of up to 12 Months. This is a post-market, non-significant risk, prospective and multi-center clinical trial divided into two stages. The first stage from enrollment to 3 Months is an open-label, randomized controlled design to compare the effectiveness of a single LipiFlow® System treatment to a standardized daily warm compress and eyelid hygiene Control therapy with Crossover LipiFlow® treatment of the Control subjects at 3 Months. The second stage, occurring between 3 and 12 Months, is an observational design to evaluate the effectiveness of LipiFlow® alone and in combination with other MGD and dry eye treatments over a duration of up to 12 Months. Subjects are entered into the following subgroups based on the subject's self-assessment of the adequacy of symptom relief and protocol-defined criteria for additional treatment. 1. One LipiFlow® Treatment: Subjects who receive only one LipiFlow® treatment. 2. Two LipiFlow® Treatments: Subjects who receive a second LipiFlow® treatment. 3. Combination Treatment: Subjects who receive one or two LipiFlow® treatments followed by other MGD or dry eye treatment, as prescribed by the physician.
