NCT00976027
The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy of Fluzone High Dose vaccine and that of Fluzone® vaccine in the elderly. Primary objective: To measure the efficacy of the vaccine, defined as the prevention of laboratory-confirmed influenza caused by viral types/subtypes that are antigenically similar to those contained in the respective annual vaccine formulations. Secondary objectives: * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High Dose vaccine with that of Fluzone® vaccine in elderly adults, with respect to laboratory-confirmed influenza illness caused by any type or subtype of influenza virus. * To compare the clinical efficacy of Fluzone High Dose vaccine with that of Fluzone® vaccine in elderly adults, in preventing culture-confirmed influenza illness caused by viral types/subtypes antigenically similar to those contained in the respective annual vaccine formulations.
NCT00276939
The purpose of the study is to assess whether, in individuals with type 2 diabetes, a low-fat, vegan diet improves blood glucose control more effectively than a control diet based on current American Diabetes Association (ADA) guidelines. The principal measure is hemoglobin A1c. Cardiovascular risk factors and dietary acceptability are also assessed. The study duration is 22 weeks with a one-year follow-up.
NCT00481897
The Worksite Nutrition Study is 22-week translational study aimed at determining how well a worksite-based nutrition program, as compared to a control group, is able to 1) produce clinically significant weight-loss, 2) improve cardiovascular factors, 3) decrease work absenteeism, 4) improve overall quality of life, 5) improve diabetes control in participants with diabetes, and 6) promote dietary adherence and acceptability. The nutrition program for the intervention group consists of once-weekly group meetings where participants will receive group support and nutrition education on a low-fat, vegan diet.
NCT00900939
The purpose of this study is to determine if a low-fat, vegan diet affects the number of acne lesions, acne severity, and acne extent.
NCT00085839
The purpose of this noncomparative study is to obtain preliminary estimates of the efficacy of erlotinib and standard chemotherapy in patients with advanced, previously untreated nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) of 2. The study will also evaluate the safety of single-agent erlotinib in this patient population.
NCT00087490
To determine if linezolid is superior to vancomycin in the treatment of complicated skin and soft tissue infections due to MRSA in adult subjects
NCT00108433
This study will treat hemodialysis patients who have a central catheter that is thought to be infected with a specific bacteria (Gram positive bacteria).
NCT00233311
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether eating a fast food meal (high in saturated fat) will result in greater increases in inflammatory markers than eating a meal with low levels of saturated fat and higher levels of mono-unsaturated fat. This study is a first step in learning about how dietary fat intake can directly impact risk factors for heart disease, diabetes and obesity.
NCT00446654
The purpose of this research study is to determine how safe and effective subconjunctival injections of CGC-11047 are in subjects with wet age related macular degeneration at two different dosing intervals.
NCT00183066
The purpose of this study is to collect bone marrow cells for research purposes.
NCT00831194
A clinical trial that uses personal digital assistants (PDAs) to assist in examining the relationship between self reported stress, an objective biochemical indicator of stress (salivary alpha amylase) and self-reported dietary lapse among type 2 diabetic adults who are interested/undergoing in weight loss.
NCT00617305
To evaluate the change from baseline in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), and other hemodynamic parameters, following the addition of ambrisentan to background phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitor (PDE-5i) therapy in subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) who have demonstrated a sub-optimal response to PDE-5i monotherapy. The study was originally designed as a 2-arm, double-blind, randomized study in which patients received ambrisentan or placebo for 24 weeks, and then received ambrisentan blinded to dose for 24 weeks. With Protocol Amendment 2 (12 June, 2009), the study was switched to single-arm, open-label treatment, and all patients remaining in the placebo arm were switched to open-label ambrisentan treatment. Patients who enrolled after Amendment 2 all received open-label ambrisentan.
NCT00354159
The purpose of this clinical research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the investigational implantable hemodynamic monitor (IHM), and of the IHM in combination with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). The investigational IHM has the ability to record and report the force with which the heart pumps blood (heart pressures). When combined with the ICD, the device has the additional ability to send a strong electrical impulse, or shock, to the heart when it detects dangerously fast heartbeats to return it to a normal rhythm. The IHM and IHM/ICD are implanted surgically just under the skin in the upper chest area. This study will also determine how doctors use the information related to heart pressures in the management of heart failure.
NCT00282711
The purpose of this study is to compare two types of exercise stress testing to find the best method for detecting heart disease in women.
NCT00534313
The purpose of this study is to determine an optimal abatacept dosing regimen for the treatment of active arthritis due to psoriatic arthritis in patients who have had a prior inadequate response to disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, including methotrexate and tumor necrosis factor alpha-blockade compounds.
NCT01519492
The purpose of the study is to determine the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of AFN-12520000 for in the treatment of Staphylococcal infections of the skin.
NCT00949975
The primary objective is to evaluate the dose-response relationship and efficacy of AZD9668 at 3 dose levels compared with placebo in symptomatic COPD patients by assessing effects on lung function and symptoms of COPD.
NCT01248468
The main purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of aspirin, acetaminophen and caffeine (AAC) with sumatriptan and placebo in the acute treatment of migraine.
NCT01045187
Multicenter, non-randomized, feasibility study to evaluate the treatment and assess acute safety of the FDA Cleared Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System and vaginal applicator for intracavitary vaginal cuff treatment according to the physician's current standard of care.
NCT00770978
The purpose of this research study is to measure the levels of ceftobiprole in the blood and urine during and after administration of four doses of ceftobiprole. Safety of the drug will also be evaluated.
