NCT00347425
The study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of switching subjects with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder from their existing antipsychotic medication to Bifeprunox.
NCT00473681
The primary objective of the proposed clinical trials is to compare the differential reduction in blood pressure in underserved hypertensive adult Korean American. The study is designed to test the effectiveness of a comprehensive self-help intervention program.
NCT00465296
The primary objective of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of rosiglitazone on bare metal stent (BMS) in-stent restenosis measured as late lumen loss in patients with metabolic syndrome. The secondary parameter for evaluation of efficacy is binary restenosis. The tertiary objective will be to assess the effect of rosiglitazone on major cardiac events (MACE; death, MI, CABG, and target vessel revascularization). The occurrence of in-stent restenosis for patients with metabolic syndrome who receive a DES in a non-target lesion will be assessed angiographically at 9 months.
NCT00571077
Patients over the age of 18 with thyroid nodules scheduled for surgery will undergo EIS scan. Each node will be scanned and graded form 1-5 (1=benign, 5=malignant). Results will be compared with final histopathology.
NCT00257673
The purpose of this study is to determine in a 12-week treatment study if MEM 1003 is a safe and effective treatment for patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.
NCT00672022
We want to see if Zavesca (or miglustat) is safe and can be tolerated by patients with acute infantile onset GM2 gangliosidosis - classical Tay-Sachs and infantile onset Sandhoff disease. We know that miglustat inhibits the formation of GM2 ganglioside, the compound that is stored in the brains of children with Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff disease. Since it inhibits the synthesis of ganglioside, miglustat may be able to reduce or delay the onset of clinical symptoms.
NCT00683137
The study was done to evaluate the pain relief and safety of 2 valdecoxib doses compared to placebo in patients with moderate or severe pain following bunionectomy surgery, and to evaluate the effect of the 2 valdecoxib doses compared to placebo on health outcome measures and on the occurrence of opioid related symptoms.
NCT00364078
Transitoriness can be defined as confrontation with life's finitude. Cancer patients are perceived to experience this confrontation due to their diagnosis. It is perceived to impact cancer patients' ways of coping with the disease situation. In this study, cancer patients' levels of uncertainty, transitoriness and their perceived locus of control are assessed. It is aimed at exploring the association of uncertainty, locus of control, transitoriness and quality of life. If a stronger correlation of one or the other issue with quality of life can be discovered, it will inform the development of an adequate evidence-based nursing intervention to better support patients' coping with the disease.
NCT00113204
This is a phase 1 clinical trial to find the safe, maximum tolerated dose of IPI-504 in patients with relapsed and/or relapsed, refractory multiple myeloma. This study will examine how IPI-504 is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and eliminated by the body. The study will also evaluate potential anti-tumor activity of IPI-504.
NCT00130234
This study is being done to find out if a drug called Xolair (omalizumab), an anti-IgE antibody, is safe and effective for people with chronic urticaria (hives) with persistent symptoms in spite of taking antihistamines.
NCT00521625
PALIVE 1 is an observational multicenter study on mechanical ventilation strategies used in children with an acute lung injury (ALI). The objective of the study is to describe mechanical ventilation strategies in children with an ALI. Our hypothesis is that daily clinical practice is heterogenous among pediatric intensivists as few pediatric data exists on optimal mechanical ventilation strategies in this group of patients. Furthermore, different strategies may affect patient outcome.
NCT00683969
The efficacy and safety of CellCept (1g po, bid for 36 weeks) will be assessed in patients with myasthenia gravis receiving prednisone, or other corticosteroids. During the study, patients will undergo gradual corticosteroid dose reduction, if they respond to treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
NCT00338052
This is an non-comparative study. There is no statistical hypothesis. The effects of extension of treatment on bleeding will be recorded and described.
NCT00374920
The purpose of this study is to establish the potential of MEM 1003 as a safe and effective treatment for patients with an acute manic or mixed episode of bipolar disorder.
NCT00454870
The purpose of this study is to determine in an 8-week treatment study if MEM 3454 is a safe and effective treatment for patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.
NCT00561496
This is a multi-center, pharmacokinetic study involving a single-dose phase, a wash out phase and a two-week once or twice-daily dosing phase for each of 49 volunteers. In the single-dose phase, each volunteer will apply the single dose in the clinic. Participants will be randomized to have cervicovaginal samples and biopsies collected at one of seven time-points \[0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hour(s)\] after the single-dose. Blood samples will be drawn at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hour(s) after the single-dose. In the two-week phase, the study supplies will be distributed and the participants will be randomized to apply each dose either once or twice-daily for two weeks. At the one week follow-up visit a blood sample will be drawn prior to the morning dose to obtain a trough value and cervicovaginal samples will be collected four hours after the morning dose. At the two week follow-up visit blood samples will be drawn prior to the morning dose to obtain a trough value and then at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 hour(s) from the final morning dose. Participants will be randomized to have cervicovaginal samples and biopsies collected at either 4, 8 or 24 hours after the final morning dose. Up to 10 participants who have completed the first two phases of the study, will be asked to participate in a third phase to have cervicovaginal samples, biopsies and blood samples collected 12 hours after a single-dose.
NCT00300924
The purpose of this study is to test an experimental drug combination of two medications currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for migraine headache or other pain. These are called rizatriptan given with acetaminophen.
NCT00127556
This study concerns the safety of blood transfusion. Prior to transfusion, staff should perform a number of essential safety checks to ensure that the correct patient is receiving the correct blood product. Evidence suggests that these safety checks are not always done. This study has been designed to assess the effect of a simple intervention on the performance of the bedside safety check. The hypothesis is that a simple intervention will improve the performance of the bedside check.
NCT00420914
To evaluate the hemostatic efficacy of a low dose platelet transfusion strategy compared to a standard dose platelet transfusion strategy.
NCT00622089
DiObex Inc. is developing an experimental drug (DIO-902) that is made up of part of the ketoconazole molecule for the treatment of elevated blood glucose associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Ketoconazole (Nizoral®) is a drug available by prescription for the treatment of fungal infections however DIO-902 is an investigational drug. DIO-902 may lower blood glucose by lowering levels of a naturally occurring hormone called cortisol. Elevated cortisol may contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes.
