NCT00094887
This study will examine whether nitric oxide (NO) gas can reduce the time it takes for pain to go away in patients who are in sickle cell crisis. NO is important in regulating blood vessel dilation, and consequently, blood flow. The gas is continuously produced by cells that line the blood vessels. It is also transported from the lungs by hemoglobin in red blood cells. Patients 10 years of age or older with sickle cell disease (known SS, S-beta-thalassemia or other blood problems causing sickle cell disease) may be eligible for this study. Patients whose disease is due to hemoglobin (Hgb) SC are excluded. Candidates are screened with blood tests and a chest x-ray to look at the lungs and heart. Participants are admitted to the hospital in a pain crisis. They are evaluated and then randomly assigned to receive one of two treatments: 1) standard treatment plus NO, or 2) standard treatment plus placebo. The placebo used in this study is nitrogen, a gas that makes up most of the air we breathe and is not known to help in sickle cell disease. For the first 8 hours of the study, patients receive placebo or NO through a facemask. The mask may be taken off for 5 minutes every hour and for not more than 20 minutes to eat a meal. After the first 8 hours, the gas is delivered through a nasal cannula (small plastic tubing that rests under the nose) that may be taken off only while showering or using the restroom. Patients are questioned about the severity of their pain when they start the study and then every few hours while they are in the hospital. Their vital signs (temperature, breathing rate, and blood pressure) and medicines are checked. Patients will breathe the gas for a maximum of 3 days, but will stay hospitalized until the patient feels well enough to go home. Patients are followed up about 1 month after starting the study by a return visit to the hospital or by a phone call.
NCT03267940
The study is being conducted to assess the safety and tolerability of (1) PEGPH20 in combination with CIS and GEM (PEGCISGEM), and (2) PEGPH20 in combination with CIS, GEM, and atezolizumab (PEGCISGEMATEZO) compared with (3) cisplatin and gemcitabine (CISGEM).
NCT02522650
This cross-over study is designed to test the hypothesis that amiloride will reduce urinary protein excretion and protect the kidney from rapid progression in proteinuric kidney disease.
NCT03939780

NCT03351413
Purpose: To test the effect of LIVE-LiFE, a home-based, tailored fall prevention program for older adults with a high risk for falling. Study Type: Single-blind, two group randomized pilot trial. Randomization is 2:1 (27 intervention, 13 control). Participants have a chance of being in the LIVE-LiFE group or the control group. Safe-LiFE Group: Individually tailored intervention at the participant's home spaced across 12 weeks including: * Home safety assessment and risk reduction strategies; incorporating strength and balance training into daily habits vision screening and referral; and education about fear of falling and falls * Home repairs, modifications, and low cost assistive devices to address unsafe home environments increasing fall risk * Medication review and feedback concerning medications with increased fall risk Control Group: • An individualized fall risk assessment provided to participant and their primary care provider Sample: 40 community-dwelling older adults in Baltimore City or County
NCT02414165
This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label phase 2/3 study of Toca 511 and Toca FC versus standard of care that comprises Investigator's choice of single agent chemotherapy (lomustine or temozolomide) or bevacizumab administered to subjects undergoing resection for first or second recurrence (including this recurrence) of GBM or AA. Subjects meeting all of the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be randomized prior to surgery in a 1:1 ratio to receive either Toca 511 and Toca FC (Experimental arm, Arm T) or control treatment with one option of standard of care (Arm SOC). Stratification will be done by IDH1 mutation status. A second stratification factor is based on the patient's Karnofsky Performance Score (KPS) (70-80 vs 90-100). Further, to account for potential differences in treatment choices for the control arm in regions, the trial will be stratified by geographical region during the randomization process.

NCT02599818
This study will examine the clinical effectiveness and health economic profile of services to link hospital patients with substance use disorders to addiction treatment, promote their medical stabilization, and reduce hospital re-admissions.
NCT02459899
The primary objective of this study was to define the dose leading to desirable efficacy, as measured by the change in hemoglobin A1C (A1C) between Baseline and Week 12.
NCT02798328
Observational trial to evaluate the effectiveness of the TEG6s DOAC cartridge to detect and classify the presence of DOAC drugs in a subject.
NCT00613626
At this point in the treatment of extensive stage SCLC, we have reached a plateau in survival with conventional chemotherapy and newer regimens are greatly needed. It has been noted that patients with increased VEGF levels have a poorer prognosis. Anti-angiogenic agents hold significant promise in the treatment of patients with extensive stage SCLC. ZD6474, a new inhibitor of the VEGFR-2, has shown favorable action in NSCLC.
NCT01298219
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lubiprostone administration in subjects with Opioid-induced Bowel Dysfunction.
NCT01781975
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) results from the autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing ß cells. Although exogenous insulin is widely available, it is not possible for affected individuals to consistently achieve euglycemia with current technology, and thus they are at risk for devastating long-term complications. This phase II study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of imatinib mesylate as a novel therapy for new-onset T1DM. Imatinib is a first-in-class tyrosine kinase inhibitor. This study will explore the potential role of short-term therapy with imatinib to induce tolerance and possibly lead to a durable long-term remission of T1DM.
NCT01791153
This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of tocilizumab in participants with GCA. The study will consist of 2 parts: a 52-week double-blind treatment period (Part 1) followed by a 104-week open label long-term follow-up period (Part 2). In Part 1 of the study eligible participants will be randomized to receive either tocilizumab every week (qw) or every 2 weeks (q2w) or placebo for 52 weeks, with tapering oral daily doses of prednisone. After Week 52, participants in remission will stop study treatment and enter long-term follow-up, whereas participants with disease activity or flares will receive open-label tocilizumab or other treatment at the discretion of the investigator for a maximum period of 104 weeks.
NCT03075904
This was a multicenter, open-label safety study to determine the dose regimen of SYNT001 (ALXN1830) administered intravenously in participants with pemphigus (vulgaris or foliaceus).
NCT03306420
This is a Phase I, open-label study to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary antitumor activity of MS201408-0005A as single agent (Part IA only) and in combination with MS201408-0005C or MS201408-0005B (Part IB, Part IC).
NCT02848729
Morphine is the opioid used to treat pain after surgery. Acetaminophen (called APAP) can reduce the amount of opioids needed for this. The problem is that morphine slows down digestion. That can delay pain relief from APAP pills. It can even change what the body does to the drug \[pharmacokinetics (PK)\]. Some doctors have started using intravenous (IV) APAP with morphine, instead of the pills. This study will measure the PK of APAP pills and IV when used with morphine in healthy volunteers. IV APAP will likely be more effective and cause fewer side effects when used with morphine to treat pain after surgery.
NCT04265729
Infants and young children up to 10 years of age with a complex condition involving the gastrointestinal tract are at risk of poor nutritional status, including faltering growth. Due to the complex condition, standard nutrition is often not tolerated and causes gastrointestinal symptoms. Formulas in which protein is replaced by its smallest elements, amino acids are easier for the body to digest and absorb. These formulas might be tolerated better and reduce gastrointestinal symptoms in infants and young children with complex conditions. The objectives of the present, exploratory study are to gain clinical evidence related to the nutritional status and gastrointestinal tolerance in infants and young children with complex conditions receiving Neocate as their primary source of nutrition. Additional objectives are to describe the nutritional and pharmacological management of these infants and young children. Study duration for each participant will be 52 weeks at maximum.
NCT02429167
The purpose of this study is to determine if clinic and home training with a study device will improve a balance deficit. The study device is called Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator (PoNS). The study device will be placed on the tongue to deliver nerve stimulation. The study is testing if use of the study device in conjunction with physical therapy will improve balance and gait in patients suffering from a TBI. The effects of using the device and undergoing therapy will be measured using standardized tests of movement control, gait, headache and other TBI symptoms.
NCT02608034
This is a two-part, Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, two-period, one-sequence study to investigate the effect of itraconazole and rifampin on the PK of vemurafenib following multiple 960 milligrams (mg) twice daily (BID) dosing in adult participants with unresectable Stage IIIC or Stage IV metastatic melanoma positive for the BRAF V600 mutation, or other malignant tumor types that harbor a V600-activating mutation of BRAF where the participant has no acceptable standard treatment options.
