NCT00014651
RATIONALE: Drugs such as vapreotide may prevent complications following pancreatic resection. It is not yet known if vapreotide is more effective than no further therapy in preventing side effects of pancreatic resection. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying vapreotide to see how well it works compared to a placebo in preventing complications in patients undergoing surgery for pancreatic cancer.
NCT00096785
The purpose of this study is to evaluate antiviral activity and efficacy of entecavir (ETV) compared to adefovir in adults with chronic hepatitis B who have not been treated yet with an antiviral medicine.
NCT00047242
RATIONALE: UCN-01 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining UCN-01 with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining UCN-01 with irinotecan in treating patients who have advanced solid tumors.
NCT00003289
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of UCN-01 in treating patients with advanced cancer that has not responded to previous treatment.
NCT00673569
RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that may occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors learn how well patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well a laboratory test predicts response to erlotinib in patients with metastatic or unresectable non-small cell lung cancer that did not respond to previous treatment.
NCT00118742
This two-arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of a long-term calcineurin inhibitor-free maintenance regimen with CellCept and sirolimus in recipients of an orthotropic liver transplant. Patients will be randomized to receive either CellCept 1-1.5 g twice daily (BID) + tacrolimus + cyclosporine, or CellCept 1-1.5 g BID + sirolimus. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1 to 2 years, and the target sample size is 100 to 500 individuals.
NCT01170611
This clinical investigation is a prospective, single-blinded, randomized trial. The primary objective concerns the safety and effectiveness of the AAIsafeR mode with the preventive algorithms.
NCT00730470
This is a Phase 1 clinical study to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of U3-1287 (AMG 888), a fully human monoclonal antibody targeting the HER3 receptor, in patients with advanced solid tumors. Eligible patients will have disease that is refractory or resistant to standard treatments or for which no standard therapy exists. The study will be conducted in two parts; a dose escalation (Part 1) and a dose expansion (Part 2). The hypothesis for this study is that U3-1287 (AMG888) will be safe and well tolerated in patients with advanced solid tumors and will show initial evidence of anti-tumor activity.
NCT00570739
This is a 16-week double-blind, placebo-controlled (for colesevelam hydrochloride (HCl)) study in the type 2 diabetic subjects and pre-diabetic subjects. Diabetic participants will also be treated with open label, background,metformin HCl. Two-hundred sixty subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and 200 pre-diabetic subjects are planned to be be enrolled. Qualified subjects with T2DM will be randomized 1:1 to receive metformin HCl plus colesevelam HCl or metformin HCl plus placebo matching colesevelam HCl. Qualified pre-diabetic subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive colesevelam HCl or matching placebo.
NCT00099528
The purpose of this study is to gain initial safety and efficacy data on the experimental agent REN-1654 in patients with painful post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN).
NCT01166815
Zinc deficiency is prevalent in children in developing countries. Zinc-supplementation is proven to reduce the duration and severity of childhood diarrhea in randomized controlled trials. However, despite this evidence, its efficacy to reduce diarrhea morbidity in adults remains unknown. The main objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of Zn-supplementation on diarrhea incidences in a vulnerable adult population. The study will be carried out in Kombewa division, Kisumu District and will involve 500 adults aged 18-55 years. They will be randomly assigned to receive Zn supplement (or placebo) on a daily basis over a 3 month period. Morbidity information will be collected daily for 4 months, while anthropometric measures and laboratory data will be obtained at study onset, end of supplementation and study conclusion. In addition, HIV and malaria tests will be carried out during the study as they are important confounders. The significant differences in diarrhea incidence between the Zn-group and the placebo-group will be determined using SPSS. The results are expected to provide the scientific basis and common pathway for development of an anti-diarrheal supplement for vulnerable populations such as environmental refugees, deprived and displaced persons, and troops prior to deployment.
NCT00418236
It has been shown that women who have dense breasts have an increased risk of breast cancer compared with women whose breasts are less dense. However, while breast density may be a risk factor, the etiology of the relationship between breast cancer and breast density is not understood. Furthermore, it is well recognized that breast cancer can still develop in women whose breasts are not dense. At menopause, the amount of breast glandular tissue and stroma naturally decreases due to a lack of hormonal stimulation. This is characterized as a decrease in the mammographic density. Although certain medications, including hormone therapy (HT) and dopamine antagonists can increase breast density, these effects are reversible upon discontinuation of the specific agent. Other medications such as the selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERM), raloxifene (RAL) and tamoxifen, have been shown to not affect breast density and allow the normal age-related changes to occur. The effects of bazedoxifene (BZA), a new SERM, on breast density are not known. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of BZA on breast density changes over 24 months in postmenopausal women. The results may be useful for clinicians to understand the effect of BZA on breast density and its mammographic effects. This is an observational, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo- and active comparator-controlled study. It is also an ancillary that will use women who are already participants in a phase 3 trial for fracture reduction (protocol 3068A1-301-WW; primary study). In the primary study, subjects received BZA 20 mg, BZA 40 mg, RAL 60 mg, or placebo. This ancillary study will request a subset of participants to use their mammograms taken in this study. Their mammogram will be digitized by a central imaging center. A single radiologist will perform the quantifications of breast density from the digitized mammograms.
NCT00875160
This is an open-label study designed to assess if AT2101 is safe in patients with Gaucher disease and how AT2101 gets through the body after it is taken by mouth. The study is being offered to adult patients with type 1 Gaucher disease who are currently receiving a stable dose of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with imiglucerase. During the study, subjects will not be receiving ERT (up to 35 days). The study consists of a screening period (\~14 days), a treatment period (12 days) and a follow-up period (7 days after last dose). At two points in the study, subjects will be housed in an in-patient treatment facility for 3 days/2 nights to accommodate all necessary blood draws.
