NCT01437397
The purpose of this Phase III study is to assess the maintenance bronchodilator effects of the fixed dose combination versus monotherapies. This study will also assess the effects of the fixed dose combination in terms of COPD symptoms, disease related health status and the long-term safety and tolerability of the fixed dose combination. This study will include a 24 week treatment period, preceding by a run-in period, followed by a two week follow up visit. All patients will be randomized to one of four treatment arms or placebo.
NCT00513617
Sickle cell disease (SCD), also known as sickle cell anemia, is an inherited genetic disease that can cause intense pain episodes. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of the nutritional supplement arginine at improving blood cell function and disease symptoms in people with SCD.
NCT02974244
Exenatide once weekly (Bydureon) was approved in January 2012 by FDA in USA for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Evidence from clinical trials suggested that Bydureon improves glucose control with low risk of hypoglycemia. Bydureon does not require a dose titration as necessary for other glucagon-like peptide-1 agonists, and appears to have other advantages, such as reducing insulin resistance, reducing weight, and improving blood pressure and lipid profiles. However, the degree to which these advantages of Bydureon lead to improve outcomes in customary clinical care is unknown. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and tolerability of Bydureon relative to basal insulin initiated as first-ever injectable therapeutic regimens used in customary clinical care. Patients who initiated treatment with Bydureon or basal insulin between July 2011 and March 2015 will be recruited into the study cohorts from Optum's database of electronic health records. The two treatment cohorts will be matched by propensity score method.Clinical outcomes of HbA1c, weight, and gastrointestinal symptoms and hypoglycemia are investigated.
NCT02251067
The purpose of this study is to determine whether VPI-2690B Injection is effective in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy.
NCT01014988
The purpose of this study is to determine whether zanamivir aqueous solution given by intravenous injection is safe in treating hospitalized patients with confirmed influenza infection. A single arm open-label design has been selected to achieve the primary objective of providing regulatory authorities with safety data on IV zanamivir.
NCT01670643
The most common goal for patients with vision loss who present for vision rehabilitation is to be able to read. The video magnifier (a device which combines a video camera and a screen to view the print being magnified) is the device which most often allows low-vision individuals to read successfully for extended periods of time. Previous studies on the outcomes of vision rehabilitation have not identified which components of the vision rehabilitation are effective. The hypothesis of this project is that providing a video camera magnifier, with basic training in operating the device, will allow patients to enhance both objective reading ability and subjective report of reading competence.
NCT02224664
This study will be an open label, dose escalation study to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of repeated daily quaque die (QD) doses given over 21 days (Day 3 to Day 23) to sequential cohorts of subjects with Parkinson's disease. Each cohort will have 2 study periods. For each cohort, subjects will enter Period 1 and if they meet criteria, approximately 12 subjects will be enrolled into Period 2 and dosed with PF 06649751. Based on results observed in a previous study, Cohorts 1 and 2 will not be conducted. Cohorts 3 - 6 will test doses uptitrated to 5 mg, 15 mg and 25 mg QD. Doses may be modified based on emerging safety, tolerability and PK data, but the maximum daily dose that will be given in any cohort will have PK predictions at steady state that are anticipated to be below toxicokinetic limits. An option for down titration to the previous dose level is available should the investigator consider that an AE is intolerable. Following down titration, a single up titration to the next dose level may be attempted if the subject remains symptom free for at least 48 hrs. Safety, tolerability and PK data of Cohort 3 will be reviewed prior to initiating the dosing in Cohorts 4 and 5. Available safety, tolerability and PK data up to Day 24 of at least 5 subjects from Cohorts 4 will be reviewed prior to initiating the dosing in Cohort 6.
NCT00179634
This is a study to assess whether healing suggestions and enhancing visual milieu (large fine art photographs) will improve mental and physical measures of well-being and recovery from surgery. The study will compare breast cancer patients undergoing identical skin sparing mastectomy and reconstruction surgery randomized to three groups: 1. Usual care control group 2. Usual care and exposure to fine art photograph 3. Usual care and fine art photograph and guided visualization tapes.
NCT00632736
To evaluate the safety profile of ropinirole XL during long-term treatment in subjects with early and advanced Parkinson's disease
NCT00362440
The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients with HIV lipodystrophy (fat wasting) benefit from taking the combination of two drugs, one insulin sensitizer (either metformin or pioglitazone, both diabetes drugs) and leptin (a natural hormone produced by your fat cells). Our hope is that they will improve sugar and fat metabolism and positively affect the body fat changes you have noticed while taking HAART.
NCT00635089
This study is an open-label study where all subjects will receive active drug, reslizumab. Subjects are able to enter this trial only through completion of study Res-05-0002 (NCT00538434). The goal of the study is to show longer term safety and efficacy in pediatric subjects who have eosinophilic esophagitis.

NCT02452671
This is a multi-center, non-randomized, observational study to further evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the Proxifuse Hammer Toe Device when utilized for bone fixation. Approximately 4 US sites will participate. The primary endpoint will evaluate the 6 month post surgery change from baseline in the PROMIS Pain Interference computerized adaptive test (CAT) score.
NCT00527566
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Mepolizumab (a monoclonal antibody against interleukin-5) is a safe and well-tolerated therapy that will allow for steroid tapering in patients with steroid-dependent Churg-Strauss Syndrome (CSS).
