NCT01218516
The primary objective of this study is to compare the effect of farletuzumab versus placebo in combination with either a platinum agent (carboplatin) with paclitaxel or a platinum agent (carboplatin or cisplatin) with pemetrexed followed by farletuzumab or placebo on investigator-assessed progression free survival (PFS) as determined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v.1.1 or definitive clinical disease progression (eg, new occurrence of positive fluid cytology) in chemotherapy naive participants with folate receptoralpha (FRA)-expressing Stage IV adenocarcinoma of the lung.
NCT03824236
MALARIA-092 (NCT03162614) study was designed to evaluate the efficacy, immunogenicity and safety of various dose schedules and formulations of GSK Biologicals' candidate malaria vaccine (RTS,S/AS01E) in healthy malaria-naïve subjects aged 18-55 years. The purpose of this study (follow-up to MALARIA-092 \[NCT03162614\] study) is to evaluate if protection can be extended with an additional Fx booster dose and if unprotected subjects can be protected following a Fx booster dose. In this booster study, subjects from MALARIA-092 (NCT03162614) study who completed vaccination and challenge will receive a Fx booster dose of RTS,S/AS01E and undergo a second controlled human malaria infection (CHMI) three to four weeks after vaccination. Additionally, subjects will be newly enrolled and will only undergo the sporozoite challenge as infectivity controls.
NCT00005970
This randomized phase III trial studies doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel, and trastuzumab to see how well they work compared to combination chemotherapy alone in treating women with breast cancer that is human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive and has spread to the lymph nodes or high-risk and has not spread to the lymph nodes. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without trastuzumab in treating breast cancer.
NCT00006400
The purpose of this study is to determine if hydroxyurea therapy is effective in the prevention of chronic end organ damage in pediatric patients with sickle cell anemia.
NCT02709746
Evaluating the efficacy of vortioxetine 10 mg/day and 20 mg/day versus placebo on depressive symptoms in adolescents (age ≥12 and ≤17 years) with a DSM-5™ (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition) diagnosis of Major depressive disorder (MDD).
NCT03500146
Sexual dysfunction affects approximately 45% of women with an even greater incidence reported in women with overactive bladder symptoms, despite this there is a lack of FDA approved treatments for sexual dysfunction in this population. While both medical therapy and electrical neuromodulation have been shown to improve urinary function as well as sexual function, there is a dearth of literature about their comparative effectiveness in the latter. The purpose of this study is to examine the comparative effectiveness of neuromodulation via percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) and medical therapy with anticholinergics or beta-agonists in improving female sexual function. This will be a prospective multi-center cohort study comparing improvement in sexual function as measured by the female sexual function index (FSFI). It is hypothesized that PTNS will improve sexual function to a greater degree than medical therapy as there may be mechanisms by which PTNS directly affects sexual function. Enhanced understanding of the effects of neuromodulation and medical therapy on sexual function may allow for improved patient selection and better outcomes which may lead to widespread use of neuromodulation for female sexual dysfunction.
NCT04513821
This is an Intermediate-Size Expanded Access, Open-Label Study for Use of Mino-Lok Therapy (MLT) in Combination with Systemic Antibiotics in the Treatment of Central Line Associated Bloodstream Infection.

NCT03726619
This research is being done to learn more about whether or not Korean American women will improve the screening practices for breast and cervical cancer if subjects receive education and follow-up from community health workers. The education materials may be given via online or in-person. Primary Hypothesis: e-CHEC-uP will be as efficacious as the original CHEC-uP in promoting mammogram and Pap test screening among Korean immigrant women (KIW) at 6 months. Objectives: (1) To develop a web-based platform of the health literacy education component of the original CHEC-uP intervention; (2) To evaluate the acceptability and usability of the web version of the health literacy education in a user testing sample of 10 KIW; and (3) To conduct a pilot study to test the preliminary efficacy of the web version of CHEC-uP (e-CHEC-uP) in 40 KIW.
NCT03073759
This study will be performed in patients with peripheral neuropathy who are walking independently, but have complains of balance problems such as recent falls or difficulty walking and show reduced vibratory and proprioceptive sensation during routine neurologic examination. These patients will be tested for proprioceptive and vibratory threshold at the toes and ankles before, during and after receiving anodal direct transcranial cortical stimulation (dTCS) over sensory and motor cortices. Subjects will be asked to participate in 2 sessions.
NCT01157117
Food allergy affects up to 4% of the U.S. population and is most common in young children. Milk allergy is the most common cause of food allergy in infants and young children, and usually develops in the first year of life. There is no treatment for food allergy and the current standard of care for milk-allergic individuals is the avoidance of milk-containing products. Research is underway to identify potential therapeutic strategies to reduce or eliminate the adverse effects experienced by milk-allergic individuals when they consume milk-containing products. Several studies have suggested that milk-allergic children who receive milk protein oral immunotherapy (OIT) may become desensitized to milk, resulting in short term protection against accidental ingestion of milk products. However, these children did not develop "tolerance," which is long term protection even after milk immunotherapy is stopped. A potential strategy to induce tolerance to milk uses milk in combination with Xolair® (omalizumab). Xolair consists of anti-IgE molecules that attach to IgE, the major antibody involved in allergic reactions. The goal of this clinical trial is to see whether Xolair® in combination with milk protein OIT is safer and more effective than OIT alone in inducing tolerance to milk and milk products. Participants will be administered a double blind, placebo controlled milk challenge at various time points in the study. If desensitization is achieved participants will be tested for tolerance at a certain time point after stopping treatment.
NCT01946880
This trial seeks to describe the effect of withdrawal from mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) on risk of clinically significant disease reactivation in quiescent SLE patients who have been on long-term MMF therapy.
NCT02715115
The purpose of this study is to determine whether NNZ-2566 is safe and well tolerated in the treatment of Rett syndrome in children and adolescents.
NCT01693367
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of Dynamic Locking Screws (DLS) used to stabilize the shaft component of distal femur fractures in comparison to standard locking screws (SLS). The hypothesis is that DLS will lead to better functional outcomes (WOMAC score) due to increased and more symmetrical callus formation and fewer non-unions.
NCT03731091

This feasibility study will investigate the following: process, resources, management and scientific aspects of delivering NHF as an adjunct therapy in COPD patients.
NCT02341768
The primary requirement of the implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is to preserve life by terminating life-threatening arrhythmias (VT/VF). The treatment options vary in terms of techniques and medical devices, based on the patient's condition. It is extremely important in the clinical practice to identify which patients' subgroup benefits the most from the ICD therapy, which comorbidity has a major impact on the patients' prognosis, or which pre-intra-post procedural behaviors provoke less complications, and affect the patient's outcome (including prolonged or unwanted hospitalizations).
NCT02272972
This study consists of a retrospective and a prospective part. For each part and in each of 5 clinics, one intraoperative postimplant image (lateral view) of 25 patients with pertrochanteric fractures will be assessed by 5 surgeons per clinic. There are two assessments in the retrospective part. a) before an educational intervention, b) after the educational intervention. The evaluated images at these two timepoints are identical. In the prospective part, the surgeons apply their new knowledge from the educational intervention. They perform the positioning of the patient during the intraoperative fluoroscopy and record the image according to the teaching material. One postimplant image of each patient will be used for the evaluation. At all three timepoints of image assessment, a questionnaire with the same set of 7 criteria (Q1-Q7) for assessing the radiographs is used. The criteria refer to the content of the educational material.
NCT03334396
