NCT01224106
This multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel-group study will evaluate the effect of gantenerumab (RO4909832) on cognition and functioning and the safety and pharmacokinetics in participants with prodromal Alzheimer's Disease. Participants will be randomized to receive subcutaneous (SC) injections of either gantenerumab or placebo. Participants who consent to be part of the sub study will undergo positron emission tomography (PET) scanning to assess brain amyloid. The anticipated time on study treatment is 104 weeks in Part 1, with an option for an additional up to 2 years of treatment in Part 2, followed by an open-label extension (Part 3) until July 2020. The dosing for Parts 1 and 2 was stopped after a planned futility interim analysis showed a low probability of meeting the primary outcome measure with the doses studied. The study has converted to open-label to investigate higher gantenerumab doses.

NCT04349150
Colonoscopy patients will be fitted with a virtual reality head-mounted display, and virtual experiences will be initiated prior to colonoscope insertion. Colonoscopy will be initiated without standard sedatives and narcotics. The colonoscopy will proceed with the subject using virtual reality distraction instead of pharmacological sedation for as long as s/he would like. Standard sedatives and narcotics will be administered upon participant request at any time during the procedure. Questionnaires will be administered to the subject and the endoscopist after each procedure to assess the acceptability of use of virtual reality in the colonoscopy setting.

NCT01850082
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the most common major surgical procedure in the United States with over 300,000 cases performed each year. To restore blood flow to the heart, vascular conduits from another part of the body are procured to create a bypass around critically blocked coronary arteries. The left internal thoracic artery is the conduit of choice for CABG due to its superior long-term patency. However, almost all patients referred for CABG require additional grafts to provide complete revascularization. This necessitates the harvest of other vessels, most commonly the saphenous vein which is used almost ubiquitously in contemporary CABG with an average of two vein grafts per CABG procedure. In the last 10 years, Endoscopic Vein Harvesting (EVH) has been recommended as the preferred method over the traditional open harvesting technique (OVH) because it provides a minimally invasive approach. However, more recent investigations indicate potential for reduced long-term bypass graft patency and worse clinical outcomes with EVH. The long term impact of EVH on clinical outcomes has never been investigated on a large scale using a definitive, adequately powered, prospective Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) with long-term follow-up.
NCT04234477
The Assessment of Intravenous Rate Control Response in Atrial Fibrillation Trial Pilot Study (AIRCRAFT Pilot) is a prospective, unblinded, pragmatic, cluster-level allocation trial. AIRCRAFT compares two medication classes commonly used for rate control in patients in atrial fibrillation (AF) with rapid ventricular rate (RVR). The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and approach to conducting a trial that compares the use of IV beta blockers and IV calcium channel blockers for patients in AF with RVR in the medical intensive care unit (MICU). AF with RVR is considered when the following parameters are met: (1) Cardiac rhythm consistent with AF (2) Heart rate \> 110 bpm. AF with RVR recurrence after conversion to sinus rhythm or prior rate control will count as a new episode of AF with RVR. Rate control agents will be pseudo-randomized to each of the three different MICU teams (beta-blocker, calcium channel blocker and physician preference). Patients are admitted to the three MICU teams on a rotating basis which will allow for pseudo-randomization, the effects of which will be equal between the three teams. Patients will be enrolled in the study if they develop AF with RVR and will be followed until discharge from the MICU. This study aims to assess the adherence and fidelity to treatment assignments in the current novel pilot study protocol which will help inform the feasibility of a larger-scale efficacy trial between IV beta blockers and IV calcium channel blockers for initial management of AF with RVR. Assessment of adherence and fidelity to treatment assignments in management of AF with RVR in the MICU will help inform power calculations and the percent of patients in each study group that received the assigned class of medication will help inform feasibility. Additional aims include assessment of time from medication administration to rate control or sinus conversion as well as identifying optimal means of data extraction (manual vs automated), and incidence of adverse events including hypotension and bradycardia.
NCT03369730
The goal of this project is to investigate whether a systematic screening approach for individuals with first episode psychosis (FEP) can substantially reduce Duration of Untreated Psychosis (DUP). The study team will evaluate the feasibility of screening a consecutive help-seeking population entering mental health services in order to facilitate early identification of FEP cases, rapid referral to specialty care and engagement in treatment.
NCT03283371
The primary efficacy objective of the study is to determine if adjunctive therapy of natalizumab 300 mg intravenous (IV) every 4 weeks reduces the frequency of seizures in adult participants with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. The secondary efficacy objective is to assess the effects of natalizumab versus placebo in drug-resistant focal epilepsy on additional measures of seizure frequency.
NCT01109004
The study is designed as a Phase III, multicenter trial of tandem autologous transplants plus maintenance therapy versus the strategy of single autologous transplant plus consolidation therapy with lenalidomide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (RVD) followed by maintenance therapy or single autologous transplant plus maintenance therapy as part of upfront treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). Lenalidomide will be used as maintenance therapy for three years in all arms.

NCT03799393
This study explores the utility of a tablet computer-based, individually-tailored application called Computer Intervention Authoring Software (CIAS) in the Emergency Department for discharge education on proper child car restraint safety. The investigators hypothesize that tablet-based, individually-tailored discharge instructions are more effective than current standard, one-size-fits-all, printed discharge instructions. This is a randomized, controlled, non-blinded trial of of children age 0-21 years old in the Emergency Department. Patients will be randomized to receive either (a) a brief tablet-based questionnaire followed by standard, paper discharge instructions or (b) a brief tablet-based questionnaire followed by the intervention - CIAS, a tablet-based computer program. One week after discharge, participants in both groups will receive an automatic text message and/or email message with a link to a web-based survey that will assess: knowledge of appropriate car restraints and whether the parent/patient engaged in any behavioral changes regarding child car restraint. These variables will be compared between the control and intervention groups.

Patients completing the study treatment are invited to participate in an optional biomarker sub-study.
NCT03145142
Early hemodynamic effects (within 3 hours of life) of Delayed Cord Clamping compared to Umbilical Cord Milking are still unknown. Four sites experienced in the use of NIRS and who have appropriate data collection equipment in the delivery room (Alberta, Ulm, Cork and San Diego) will obtain and report the physiological changes with UCM and DCC from birth until 24 hours of life. This data will yield the largest available sample of continuously recorded heart rate, cerebral tissue oxygenation, peripheral oxygen saturation, airway pressure, and administered FiO2 to delineate the short term responses to two methods of placental transfusion. In our initial trial we demonstrated increased blood pressure from 3-15 HOL with UCM compared to DCC in premature newborns \<32 weeks, but did not show any differences in cerebral oxygenation.
