NCT01011478
RATIONALE: Rosuvastatin may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving rosuvastatin after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It may also keep polyps from forming or colon cancer from coming back. It is not yet known whether rosuvastatin is more effective than a placebo in treating colon cancer that was removed by surgery. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying rosuvastatin to see how well it works compared with placebo in treating patients with stage I or stage II colon cancer that was removed by surgery.
NCT04629703
The study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-center, Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fostamatinib in COVID-19 subjects.
NCT01770951
The objective of this retrospective trial is to assess safety and efficacy of eculizumab in aHUS patients treated outside of an Alexion-sponsored controlled clinical trial.
NCT03073122
In the landmark Boston Circulatory Arrest Study, neurologic and developmental status was measured following infant heart surgery and then prospectively at ages 1, 2.5, 4, 8, and 16 years, with findings of significant neurocognitive deficits and brain MRI abnormalities regardless of operative management. To date, no study has evaluated the neuropsychological and neuroimaging antecedents and correlates of well-being in adults with congenital heart disease, a population now \>1 million and projected to grow at 5% per year. The investigators propose to study the Boston cohort at ages 24-29 years to assess the associations of adult well-being with childhood and adolescent executive function, other measures of mental health and cognitive function, adolescent brain MRI findings, and clinical variables; findings will guide the design of interventions in childhood to optimize outcomes in adults with congenital heart disease.
NCT04229368
Vitamin D status has been shown to have an effect on post-operative outcomes in total joint arthroplasty. The goal of this study is to determine if pre-operative supplementation and correction of Vitamin D deficiency can reduce postoperative complications.
NCT04307446
In the proposed project the investigators will evaluate the feasibility of Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) and assess the initial effects of IVR on symptoms, affect, and tolerance to cutaneous stimuli. In this single-arm trial, the investigators will recruit 20 adults with CBP. Prior to their IVR experience, subjects will complete multiday baseline assessments using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) methodology to establish typical levels of symptoms and affect. Afterward, in a single experimental session, they will participate in two counterbalanced IVR sessions: one 10-minute and one 20-minute. Immediately after each session the investigators will measure current symptoms and affect using valid and reliable self-report questionnaires, and we will measure changes in tolerance to cutaneous stimuli using quantitative sensory testing. We will measure symptoms and affect for 72 hours after the experimental session using EMA to determine if there is a carryover. At the completion of this study, we will continue to work with stakeholders to develop clinically relevant IVR interventions for people with CBP.
NCT00499317
Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a condition with several causes of which some remain unknown. It is believed that some types of CP may be genetic or passed down (inherited) from one generation to the next. In this study, we are collecting genetic material and medical information to try to determine if genetic factors play a role in CP/CPPS. We will be collecting DNA (from Blood/Saliva sample) and urine from each participant. Bladder tissue from affected individuals will also be collected. Individuals and families with CP/CPPS will be enrolled. Family members of an individual with CP/CPPS are eligible whether or not they also experience CP/CPPS symptoms.
NCT00951366
The goal of the Preterm Lung Patient Registry is to collect data on individuals with neonatal lung disease to better understand the illness and ultimately improve their care and survival. The Patient Registry was established in 2008 as a means to monitor important trends in the BPD population and to improve understanding, treatment, and survival.
NCT02884791
The primary aim of this study is to examine the effect of acute ingestion of fructose on serum FGF21 levels. Subjects in this study will be lean volunteers and individuals with metabolic syndrome.
NCT03213184
The environment during the prenatal period and in early life is a major contributor to the risk of developing childhood asthma. Birth cohort studies from single research centers have identified several factors that affect the risk for developing childhood asthma, including being exposed in early life to allergens, pollutants, viruses and bacteria, and psychosocial stress. Despite such advances, further progress in understanding the root causes of asthma have been hampered by the small size of previous studies, which makes it difficult to: 1) identify asthma risk factors with certainty, 2) know how environmental factors across the United States (U.S.) affect asthma, and 3) whether there are critical ages when pregnant mothers, infants and young children are particularly susceptible to these influences. Furthermore, different research groups tend to use different methods to study asthma, making it difficult to either compare or pool findings. One other challenge is that there are several types (i.e. phenotypes, endotypes) of childhood asthma, but these are poorly understood. To help overcome these challenges, investigators leading 12 asthma birth cohorts across the U.S. have established the Children's Respiratory Research Workgroup (CREW) consortium. CREW proposes to identify specific types of childhood asthma, develop an understanding of what early life environmental influences cause these different types of asthma and when, and identify targets for future efforts aimed at preventing childhood asthma.
NCT02614794
This study is being done to see if tucatinib works better than placebo to help patients who have a specific type of breast cancer called HER2 positive breast carcinoma. The breast cancer in this study is either metastatic (spread into other parts of the body) or cannot be removed completely with surgery. All patients in the study will get capecitabine and trastuzumab, two drugs that are often used to treat this cancer. There are two parts to this study. The first part of the study is already complete. Patients were randomly assigned to get either tucatinib or placebo (a pill with no medicine). Since this part was "blinded," neither patients nor their doctors knew whether a patient got tucatinib or placebo. The second part of the study is called the Unblinded Phase. In this part of the study, participants and their doctors know which drugs are being given. Participants who used to get or are currently getting placebo may be able to start taking tucatinib instead. Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days. Patients will swallow tucatinib pills two times every day. They will swallow capecitabine pills two times a day during the first two weeks of each cycle. Patients will get trastuzumab injections from the study site staff on the first day of every cycle.
NCT03738800
This is a phase 2 randomized, multi-center, double-blind, vehicle controlled, 90 day, safety, efficacy, and systemic exposure study followed by a 90 day open-label extension of trifarotene cream in adults and adolescents with autosomal recessive ichthyosis with lamellar scale.
NCT01132053
This is a continuation of our previous studies on Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML). We will focus on the role of inflammation in PML, and define prognostic markers of disease evolution.
NCT04590248
This Phase 2b study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adavosertib, an inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase WEE1, in subjects with recurrent or persistent uterine serous carcinoma (USC) who have previously received at least 1 prior platinum-based chemotherapy regimen for the management of USC.
NCT04126317
The primary objectives of the study are to determine the safety of high-dose aflibercept (hereafter referred to as HD) and to determine if HD provides greater intraocular pharmacodynamic (PD) effect and/or longer duration of action compared to intravitreal aflibercept injection (hereafter referred to as IAI).
NCT05011513
The primary hypothesis to be tested is whether or not there is a difference in time to sustained alleviation of all targeted COVID-19 signs and symptoms through Day 28 between PF-07321332/ritonavir and placebo.
NCT05063734
This study is conducted to select the THR-687 dose level (Part A of the study) and to assess the efficacy and safety of the selected dose level compared to aflibercept (Part B of the study).
NCT02536300
The primary objective of this study is to establish a safe and effective dosing regimen of idelalisib in participants with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma (FL) who have no other therapeutic options.
NCT04971148
In this study, patients who are ready for extubation and indicated for high-flow nasal cannula therapy after extubation will be enrolled, the investigators would measure the patient peak tidal inspiratory flow (PTIF) pre and post extubation to explore the correlation between the two PTIFs. Moreover, different HFNC flows would be applied, to explore the patient response in terms of oxygenation and lung aeration to different flow ratios that matched and are above post-extubation PTIF.
NCT03695380
The study will include a safety run-in phase (Stage 1) and a randomization phase (Stage 2). The purpose of Stage 1 is to evaluate the safety of cobimetinib when administered in combination with niraparib (Cohort 1) and cobimetinib with niraparib plus atezolizumab (Cohort 2). Stage 1 will enable patient enrollment in the randomized phase of the study (Stage 2) with both regimens at the recommended dose levels from Stage 1. Stage 2 is a randomized, dose-expansion phase, evaluating clinical outcomes in patients with advanced platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer. All patients will continue to receive study treatment until disease progression (according to "Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors" (RECIST), Version 1.1, unacceptable toxicity, death, or patient or investigator decision to withdraw, whichever occurs first.
