NCT02890056
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of a community-based behavioral intervention (H2GO!) on decreasing sugar-sweetened beverage consumption and promoting water consumption among school-aged youth and parents/caregivers. We hypothesize that participants in the intervention site will demonstrate reduced sugar-sweetened beverage intake intake and increased water intake compared to participants in the comparison site at 2 and 6 months follow-up.
NCT00262730
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Biological therapies, such as poly ICLC, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Giving poly ICLC after radiation therapy and temozolomide may stop any remaining tumor cells from growing. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving radiation therapy together with temozolomide followed by temozolomide and poly ICLC works in treating patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme.
NCT02396511
The purpose of this study is to determine whether TRC105 in combination with Bevacizumab is effective in the treatment of two patients with metastatic and refractory choriocarcinoma.
NCT03887091
This research study is evaluating the effectiveness of video and web-based communication in clinical research compared to standard practices.
NCT03974763
This study will be unique for the rehabilitation of patients with facial paralysis in that the focus is to generate novel 3D facial soft tissue measures to characterize the condition and temporal changes, and on the generation of future testable hypotheses to optimize surgical interventions and outcomes. In addition, the investigators will extend our previous work, beyond the facial circumoral and lip areas/zones, to characterize additional facial zones specific for facial paralysis. The approach for facial mapping of soft tissue movement, when validated through this proposed study, can be used for both surgical planning and to support the development and training of implantable facial pacing devices. Mapping both normal facial movements and movements of patients with unilateral facial paralysis are vital to describe the temporal and spatial course of the recovery process. Ultimately, this information can be used to inform clinicians on the precise placement of these devices and the signal strength needed to facilitate movements in the required 'paralyzed' facial zones until the recovery process has been completed.
NCT00558844
This is a study to determine the safety and tolerability of 28 days of daily dosing of 560 mg of Arikayce™ versus placebo and daily dosing of 70 mg and 140 mg of Arikayce™ versus placebo in patients who have Cystic fibrosis (CF) and chronic infection due to pseudomonas aeruginosa.
NCT03623568
This is a proof of concept, single center study for the donation of HCV-positive kidney to HCV negative recipient patients, with preemptive, interventional treatment with 12 weeks of commercially available DAA therapy to prevent HCV transmission upon transplantation.
NCT02185521
Philips has developed a new algorithm, called Hemodynamic Instability Rules Based Advisor (HIRBA 2.0) system, for the prediction of hemodynamic instability in critically ill patients, who were not previously known to be at risk. This algorithm provides with the numerical index - Hemodynamic Instability Index (HII) and its trend which are calculated from existing real time data derived from patient's current hospital stay such as heart rate and blood pressure, labs, and Admission - Discharge- Transfer (ADT) data to help healthcare providers obtain information about patient's status and make clinical decisions. The aim of the study is to determine if the patient clinical information, displayed in the form of HII, can prompt possible patient hemodynamic status change and trigger earlier clinical care team response. We hypothesize that this real-time information on hemodynamic instability and earlier clinical decision making will lead to reduced length of stay (LOS) and ICU mortality relative to standard care practice. Study will also identify if the use of the Philips new algorithm called Hemodynamic Instability Rules Based Advisor (HIRBA 2.0) can improve outcomes for patients admitted to the intensive care units (ICUs). During this study, upon patient admission to the ICU clinical data collection will begin. Data that will be pulled during the study includes: vital signs, medications, reason for admission to the ICU, treatments that patient may receive. Research subjects will not be asked to do anything as far as specific activities expected to be accomplished during study participation. Subjects will be involved in the study only during their stay in ICU. HII information will be visible to clinicians, taking care of this patient only during his/ her stay in the study unit. Study team will collect patient information and have the ability to view the HII for subjects. Once patient leaves the ICU the study team will collect information on the remainder of patient's hospital course including date of hospital discharge. All collected data will be then fully de-identified and released to Philips for analysis.
NCT01885208
This trial is conducted in Europe and North and South America. The aim of the trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of semaglutide once-weekly versus exenatide ER (extended release) 2.0 mg once-weekly as add-on to 1-2 oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
NCT02488044
A Phase 1/2 Open-label Study in Patients with Arginase I Deficiency to Investigate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Intravenous AEB1102. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of IV administration of AEB1102 for the treatment of pediatric and adult patients with Arginase I deficiency and hyperargininemia. This study will be conducted in 2 parts: Part 1 (Single Ascending Dose Escalation) and Part 2 (Repeated Dosing). Each part will be preceded by a baseline assessment of arginine levels. All patients who participate in Part 1 may continue AEB1102 dosing in Part 2 if they qualify for continued dosing. A data safety monitoring board (DSMB) will provide independent review of study safety data and recommend whether the sponsor should continue the study as planned, modify the study protocol, or discontinue the study.
NCT01059539

NCT01367665
This single-arm, open-label, multi-center study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of vismodegib (GDC-0449) in patients with locally advanced or metastatic basal cell carcinoma. Patients will receive oral doses of vismodegib 150 mg once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
NCT01920477
Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a rare, chronic, debilitating, and potentially life-threatening autoimmune disorder that is characterized by mucocutaneous blisters. Ofatumumab is a novel monoclonal antibody (mAb) that specifically binds to the human CD20 antigen, which is expressed only in B lymphocytes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of ofatumumab injection for subcutaneous use (ofatumumab SC) 20 milligrams (mg) administered once in every 4 weeks, (with an additional 20 mg loading dose \[i.e. 40 mg total\] at both Week 0 and Week 4) in subjects with PV. It was anticipated that with sustained B-cell depletion in the presence of ofatumumab SC, and the resultant reduction of pathogenic anti Dsg (desmoglein) autoantibodies in PV, that clinical remission of the disease would result.
