NCT01578317
Background: \- Adjuvants are substances included in vaccines that stimulate the immune system and increase the body's response to the vaccine. The AS03 adjuvant is used in seasonal flu vaccines in Europe. However, it has not been fully tested in the United States. Researchers want to test the immune responses of people who receive a bird flu vaccine with or without AS03 to better understand how the adjuvant works. This information may help develop better flu vaccines. Objectives: \- To compare the healthy immune system responses to bird flu vaccine with or without the AS03 adjuvant. Eligibility: \- Healthy volunteers between 18 and 45 years of age. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. * Participants will be assigned to one of two groups. Each group will have an initial vaccine, followed by a booster vaccine 21 days later. Both vaccinations will use the same type of vaccine. One group will have the vaccine with AS03; the other group will have the vaccine without it. * All participants will have two 36-hour inpatient stays to receive the vaccine. Each stay will involve the vaccination, followed by regular and frequent blood draws. Participants will be monitored for any signs or symptoms that may be caused by the vaccine. * Additional blood samples will be collected 7, 28, 42, and 100 days after the initial vaccination.
NCT02298946
Background: \- T-cells are white blood cells that can find and kill germs and tumors. Cancer can keep T-cells from working. Researchers think a new drug called AMP-224 might help the T-cells in people with cancer. They think the drug might work even better when combined with a certain type of radiation therapy. Objective: \- To study the safety and effectiveness of AMP-224 together with 1 or 3 days of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) directed to the liver. Eligibility: \- People age 18 and older with metastatic colorectal cancer. Their cancer must have spread to the liver and not be responding to treatment. Design: * Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Their tumors will be measured with computerized tomography (CT) scans or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the chest, stomach, and pelvis. They will have an electrocardiogram (ECG) heart test. * Participants will have a small part of their tumor removed by needle (biopsy). * Participants will have 8 study visits over about 10 weeks. * At 1 visit, they will have another tumor biopsy. * At 1 visit, they will get a chemotherapy drug through a vein (intravenous (IV)). * At 6 visits, they will receive AMP-224 through an IV. * At 1 or 3 visits, they will have SBRT. Computed tomography (CT) scans will map the position of their tumor. Radiation beams of different intensities at different angles will be directed to the tumor. * At all visits, some screening procedures may be repeated. * After treatment ends, participants will have 7 follow-up visits over about 5 months. Blood will be drawn. Some screening procedures may be repeated.
NCT01881230
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of nab-paclitaxel in combination with either gemcitabine or carboplatin to the combination of gemcitabine and carboplatin as first line treatment in female subjects with triple negative metastatic breast cancer (TNMBC) or metastatic triple negative breast cancer.
NCT02865395
Ureteroscopy is a common procedure in Urology that patients undergo daily to deal with a variety of ailments. These procedures often require that the bladder be filled and emptied with sterile water or saline several times during the procedure, and often result in the patient receiving a catheter at the end of the procedure. One common side effect is that patients experience bladder spasm or discomfort for a period of time after these procedures. Belladonna and Opium (B and O) suppositories and PO Oxybutynin are often given in the post-operative setting to relieve these symptoms. The principle objectives of this study are: 1. To determine if the addition of a B and O supprette suppository at the end of cystoscopic/ureteroscopic procedures reduces the incidence of bladder spasms and urinary discomfort that patients experience in the post-operative setting. 2. To determine if using peri-operative B and O supprette suppositories reduces the need for pos-operative oral Ditropan and use of narcotic pain medications.
NCT01662908
Assess the relative change in thrombus volume as determined by two assessments (Baseline and Day 14-21) with magnetic resonance venography (MRV) in subjects with deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) treated with either an edoxaban monotherapy regimen or a low molecular weight (LMW) heparin/warfarin regimen.
NCT00311623
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as sirolimus, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the best dose of sirolimus and to see how well it works before surgery in treating patients with advanced localized prostate cancer.
NCT01270971

NCT02461641
This study was designed to determine the heal rate of diabetic foot ulcers at 4 weeks, and complete closure at 8 and 12 weeks of patients treated with either NuShield or Affinity compared to standard care alone.
NCT00135707
Preeclampsia is one of the most common complications of pregnancy and is characterized by high blood pressure and protein in the urine. This can cause problems in the second half of pregnancy for both the mother and fetus. This study of preeclampsia consists of two parts: 1) a randomized, placebo controlled, multicenter clinical trial of 10,000 low-risk nulliparous women between 9 and 16 weeks gestation and 2) an observational, cohort study of 4,000 patients between 9 and 12 weeks gestation who are also enrolled in the trial. Subjects in both parts will receive either 1000 mg of vitamin C and 400 IU of vitamin E or matching placebo daily. The purpose of the randomized, clinical trial is to find out if high doses of vitamin C and E will reduce the risk of preeclampsia and other problems associated with the disease. The study will also evaluate the safety of antioxidant therapy for mother and infant. Patients will be seen monthly to receive their supply of study drug, to have weight and blood pressure recorded, to have urine protein measured, and to assess any side effects. At two visits, blood and urine will be collected. The observational, cohort study will prospectively measure potential biochemical and biophysical markers that might predict preeclampsia. These patients will have additional procedures including uterine artery Doppler and blood drawn for a complete blood count (CBC).
NCT01990612
A randomized clinical trial to assess whether elective induction of labor at 39 weeks of gestation compared with expectant management will improve outcomes.
NCT00099164
Women pregnant with twins or triplets are at high risk of preterm birth, yet no intervention or approach has served to reduce this risk. A recently completed trial by the NICHD sponsored Maternal Fetal Medicine Units (MFMU) Network has, for the first time, demonstrated a treatment that substantially reduces the rate of preterm birth in women at high risk for preterm delivery (i.e. progesterone therapy). Preterm birth was reduced by 35% among progesterone-treated women with a singleton pregnancy when compared with women receiving placebo. The current trial compares weekly treatment by injection of progesterone with placebo in women pregnant with twins or triplets.
NCT00746356
