NCT00003597
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Colony-stimulating factors such as thrombopoietin and G-CSF may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a person's immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of colony-stimulating factors in treating children who have recurrent or refractory solid tumors and who are receiving chemotherapy.
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.
NCT00003735
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of topotecan in treating children who have relapsed acute leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, or blast phase chronic myelogenous leukemia.
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
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.
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.
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.
NCT01654536
This is a 6 month, multicenter, randomized, open label, parallel group, study to evaluate the nasal safety of ciclesonide nasal aerosol and ciclesonide aqueous nasal spray administered once daily to male and female subjects 12 years and older diagnosed with PAR.
NCT01362296
This is a phase II, open-label, multicenter, randomized study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GSK1120212 compared with docetaxel in the second line setting for subjects with locally advanced or metastatic (Stage IV) Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring a KRAS mutation who have failed one platinum-containing chemotherapy regimen. A small subset of NSCLC subjects harboring BRAF, NRAS, or MEK1 mutations will be randomized in addition to the primary KRAS population, for exploratory purposes.
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).
NCT00005578
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Chemoprotective drugs, such as dexrazoxane, may protect normal cells from the side effects of chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy with or without dexrazoxane in treating children who have Hodgkin's disease.
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.
NCT01714544
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Cloderm Cream is effective for topical treatment of moderate psoriasis over 28 days.
NCT00707148
The purpose of this study is to look at the safety and immunogenicity of a combination vaccine that includes tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid, and acellular pertussis (Tdap). The study will be conducted in 48 pregnant women and 32 non-pregnant women. Safety of the newborn infant and the effect of the mother's vaccination on the infants' immune responses prior to vaccinating infants with another combination vaccine to protect against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis will be evaluated. Participants will be 18-45 years old. Pregnant volunteers will be 30-32 weeks pregnant and at a low risk for pregnancy complications. Pregnant volunteers will receive 2 injections (1 vaccine and 1 placebo, inactive substance); non-pregnant volunteers will receive 1 injection of vaccine. Blood samples will be collected from the mother and infant, along with the baby's growth measurements. Participation for mother infant pairs is about 15 months and about 7 months for non-pregnant women.
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.
