NCT00050960
This study evaluates the use of Targretin capsules (bexarotene) in combination with standard chemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) in patients who have not yet received chemotherapy for their lung cancer.
NCT00383513
Epratuzumab is an investigational antibody designed to help treat Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). The purpose of the study is to obtain additional long-term information regarding the safety and efficacy of continued maintenance-cycle administrations of Epratuzumab.
NCT01250366
The purpose of this study is to determine the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Ascending Oral Doses of INX-08189 in Chronically-infected Genotype 1 HCV, Treatment-naïve Subjects.
NCT00246571
The purpose of this study is to compare progression free survival for SU011248 \[sutent (sunitinib malate)\] versus standard of care therapy in patients with previously treated, advanced, triple receptor negative (ER, PR, HER2) locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer.
NCT01246505
Study of the BridgePoint Medical System in the crossing of chronic total occlusions of the lower extremities.
NCT00482989
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple IV doses of the MEDIMUNNE antibody in adult patients with SLE.
NCT00023647
RATIONALE: Vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Infusing the vaccine directly into a lymph node may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy given directly into a lymph node in treating patients who have stage IV melanoma.
NCT01635673
The purpose of this study is to determine if whole body vibration exercise improves insulin/glucose dynamics and bone metabolism in Latino Boys.
NCT00257205
This is a Phase 3, multi-national, open-label, 2-arm randomized study in patients with surgically incurable metastatic melanoma who have received no prior chemotherapy, or biochemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic disease. The primary objective of this trial is to compare overall survival for patients with advanced melanoma who are randomized to receive CP-675,206 with that of patients who are randomized to receive either dacarbazine or temozolomide (investigator choice)
NCT00644332
According to the American Heart Association (AHA) 2011 update of heart disease and stroke statistics, more than 9 million adult patients in the United States (US) have angina. This update also notes that a study of 4 national cross-sectional health examination studies found that, among Americans 40 to 74 years of age, the age-adjusted prevalence of angina was higher among women than men. Per ACC/AHA guidelines, the goal of antianginal therapy is the complete or near complete elimination of anginal chest pain and a return to normal activities and functional capacity. However, evaluating angina and responses to antianginal therapy is often not straightforward. This is particularly true of female patients with angina. Because angina and response to antianginal therapy may differ in men and women, an instrument designed specifically to address symptomatology in women with angina could enhance our understanding and characterization of angina and responses to therapy in this population. The current study will evaluate the validity, reliability, and responsiveness of the newly developed Women's Ischemia Symptom Questionnaire (WISQ) based on changes in angina symptomatology in a female angina population treated with ranolazine, compared with the widely used Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ).
NCT00759057
This non-inferiority study will compare the clinical outcomes of subjects implanted with the Dynesys Spinal System versus the clinical outcomes of subjects implanted with an instrumented posterior lateral spinal fusion.
NCT00780598
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tosedostat in elderly patients suffering from refractory or relapsed AML.
NCT00522938
This is an open-label, multicenter, multiple-dose, Phase I-II study of CHR-2797 co-administered with erlotinib in patients with histologically or pathologically confirmed Stage IIIB (with pleural effusion), Stage IV, or recurrent metastatic NSCLC. Throughout this protocol, "study medication" includes both CHR-2797 and erlotinib. This study will involve 2 distinct study phases. Study Phase A will assess safety and determine the MTD of the combination of CHR-2797 and erlotinib. In addition, PK profiles for the combination of CHR-2797 and erlotinib will be evaluated. In Study Phase B, the dose chosen based on the maximum tolerated dose established in Study Phase A will be administered in a single-arm treatment design in order to evaluate the efficacy of co-administration of CHR-2797 and erlotinib.
NCT00024427
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving the drugs in different combinations may kill more tumor cells. Chemoprotective drugs such as triacetyluridine may protect normal cells from the side effects of chemotherapy. It is not yet known which chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating pancreatic cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of fluorouracil plus triacetyluridine with that of gemcitabine in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer that cannot be treated with surgery.
NCT00094055
This is a Phase 2 study being conducted at multiple centers in the United States. Patients having thyroid cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (i.e., metastatic) are eligible to participate. Patients must have disease that was not controlled by previous treatment with radioactive iodine (131I) or not be good candidates for such treatment. The purpose of the study is to test whether the angiogenesis inhibitor AG-013736 is an effective treatment for metastatic thyroid cancer as shown by the number of patients in the study who experience significant and durable tumor shrinkage.
NCT00105937
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of OraVescent fentanyl to treat breakthrough pain episodes in cancer patients who are already opioid tolerant.
NCT01456611
The objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical equivalence and safety of the Test formulation of diclofenac sodium topical gel 1% (Anchen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) compared to the marketed formulation Voltaren® Gel (diclofenac sodium topical gel) 1% (Novartis) in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. The efficacy of both the Test and Reference formulations will also be compared to the Placebo gel to determine Superiority.
NCT01433679
The primary purpose of this study is to test whether rewarding physical activity with a motivational website will increase physical activity levels in middle school-aged children over six months. As a secondary outcome, the study also tests the intervention's impact on biological measures of inflammation and metabolic function in a sub-set of study participants who agree to provide blood samples.
NCT00372489
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long term safety and tolerability of peginesatide for the maintenance of hemoglobin in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who had received at least 24 weeks of peginesatide treatment in an earlier study.
NCT01173419
This is a multi center, randomized, comparison study using two already cleared methods of treatment of the great saphenous vein (GSV). The hypothesis to be tested is that the use of the Venacure EVLT NeverTouch procedure is no worse than the RF ClosureFAST procedure for treatment of the GSV. Evaluation of post operative pain and bruising, quality of life assessments, adverse event assessments, confirmation of long term GSV closure, use of medications are criteria that will be evaluated during the course of this study.
