NCT00002150
To characterize the safety and efficacy of fixed doses of MDL 28,574A administered alone and in combination with zidovudine ( AZT ) in patients with asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic HIV infection. To examine the demographic effects on population pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of MDL 28,574A alone and in combination with AZT.
NCT00002361
The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to give an anti-HIV drug combination containing indinavir and ritonavir to HIV-positive patients who have failed previous treatment with protease inhibitors.
NCT00000178
This is a randomized placebo controlled, double blind study. Patients who meet eligibility criteria and decide to participate in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either drug treatment or a placebo. Neither the patients nor the participating investigators will know who is receiving the drugs and who is receiving the placebo. Participation involves 15 outpatient clinic visits over a 68 week period. Patients take study medication at varying doses (the maximum dose is 20 mg daily), along with calcium and vitamin supplements.
NCT00002374
To examine the efficacy of saquinavir SGC (soft gel capsules) in combination with other antiretrovirals in HIV-1 infected patients currently treated with saquinavir HGC (hard gel capsules) measured by the absolute change in plasma HIV-1 RNA during the 24 weeks of study treatment.
NCT00002314
To study the effects of Ro 24-7429 on tumor growth in patients with HIV-related Kaposi's sarcoma. To study the safety and tolerance, effects on HIV replication, and immunologic effects of Ro 24-7429 in this patient population. To explore relationships between exposure to Ro 24-7429 and its metabolites with its antitumor and antiviral activities and drug toxicity.
NCT00000179
Agitation affects 70 to 90 percent of patients with AD. Signs of agitation include verbal and physical aggressiveness, irritability, wandering, and restlessness. These behaviors often make caring for patients at home very difficult. Trazodone and haldol are two of the most commonly prescribed drugs for agitation in AD patients. Behavior management, a non drug approach, has been effective in reducing signs of agitation. Researchers have yet to compare the effectiveness of drug versus non drug therapy to treat agitation in AD patients and determine which is the best treatment. The Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study, with funding from the National Institute on Aging, is conducting an agitation treatment program at 21 sites in 16 States. This study will assess which of the above treatments is most effective.
NCT00006397
The purpose of this study is to see how safe and effective it is to give multi-drug treatment with indinavir (IDV) plus ritonavir (RTV) plus enteric-coated didanosine (ddI) plus stavudine (d4T) and if there are differences in responses between men and women.
NCT00002368
To evaluate the tolerance, safety, and effectiveness of Viramune in preventing clinical AIDS progression events or death when used in combination with Lamivudine and background nucleoside therapy.
NCT00002379
To evaluate the safety and tolerance of adefovir dipivoxil and indinavir administered orally in combination with zidovudine, lamivudine, or stavudine in HIV-infected patients with CD4 cell counts \>= 100 cells/mm3 and an HIV-1 RNA baseline copy number \>= 5000 copies/ml. To determine the proportion of patients whose plasma HIV-1 RNA level falls below the level of detection (500 copies/ml) by 20 weeks of study therapy and the average reduction in HIV-1 RNA from baseline through study week 20. To evaluate the durability of the antiviral response through 48 weeks of study in patients who continue on study therapy after week 24.
NCT00000677
To assess the safety and effectiveness of SCH 39304 as primary treatment of acute cryptococcal meningitis in HIV-infected patients. Safety and effectiveness of maintenance therapy following successful treatment of acute disease are also evaluated. Cryptococcal meningitis is a significant cause of illness and death in HIV-infected patients. Intravenous amphotericin B is effective for acute disease but relapse occurs in the majority of patients. Maintenance therapy is recommended but must be balanced against the multiple toxicities of the drugs used and the problems associated with the weekly administration of intravenous therapy. Treatments that are equally or more effective and less toxic than traditional methods are needed, especially oral therapy. SCH 39304 is an orally active antifungal drug that in animal studies is active against a wide range of systemic fungal infections including infections due to Cryptococcus. Features of SCH 39304 suggest that it might be of value in the treatment of cryptococcal meningitis.
NCT00004323
OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the efficacy of related, HLA-identical bone marrow transplantation following cyclophosphamide (CTX) and antithymocyte globulin in patients with aplastic anemia. II. Evaluate the efficacy of related, HLA-nonidentical bone marrow transplantation following CTX and total-body irradiation/total-lymphoid irradiation in patients with aplastic anemia.
NCT00043797
This clinical trial is to determine an effective dosage and to study the safety of an investigational drug -lidorestat (IDD-676)- which is intended to stop or slow the progression of diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
NCT00004985
The purpose of this study is to look at the effectiveness of an anti-HIV drug combination that adds capravirine in patients who have failed their first drug combination treatment.
NCT00002195
The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to add 141W94 to an anti-HIV regimen that includes retrovir plus epivir.
NCT00002229
The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to give saquinavir (as a soft gel capsule taken by mouth) along with 2 other anti-HIV drugs to HIV-infected patients.
NCT00002096
To determine whether there is a pharmacokinetic drug interaction between oral ganciclovir and oral zidovudine (AZT) and between oral ganciclovir and oral didanosine (ddI). To determine whether concurrent administration of probenecid affects the pharmacokinetics of oral ganciclovir. To obtain data on the short-term safety of oral ganciclovir administered concurrently with AZT, ddI, or probenecid in HIV-positive patients.
NCT00002295
To evaluate the effect of Isoprinosine in patients diagnosed as having AIDS relative to: Laboratory (immunologic defects): * Comparison of total helper and suppressor T-cell numbers among the groups. * Comparison of changes in natural killer cell activity. * Comparison of other laboratory findings among the groups. Clinical changes: * Comparison of the frequency of opportunistic infections among the groups. * Comparison of the frequency of the development of AIDS-related malignancies. * Comparison of other clinical manifestations relative to severity and time of onset.
NCT00028405
This multi-center photodynamic therapy study plans to treat patients with large tumors in any superficial location, sarcoma, tumors of oral/oro-pharyngeal cavity, tumors with extensive pelvic involvement, or liver metastasis. The treatment is limited to patients that have failed to respond to currently approved methods of treatment. The study involves a single, intravenous administration of an investigational drug, LS11 (previously studied in approximately 80 cancer patients) and the placement of a novel, flexible light delivery catheter inside the tumor by a minor surgical procedure. The activation of LS11 by the light delivery catheter over a period of 1-24 hrs may result in destruction of tumor tissue.
NCT00000846
To evaluate safety and immunogenicity of 2 different HIV-1 peptide candidate vaccines, the UBI HIV-1 MN PND peptide immunogen and the UBI microparticulate monovalent HIV-1 MN branched peptide when administered sequentially by 2 different routes of immunization, parental priming followed by oral boosting.
NCT00044135
