NCT00158249
The Three Aims of this study are (only studies for Aim 1 were completed) 1. Measure the impact of citicoline on marihuana use patterns in subjects' individualized natural settings and responses to marihuana challenge using functional brain MRI scans. Hypothesis - 2 g/day citicoline will produce greater reductions in marihuana use and craving in heavy marihuana users than placebo citicoline over a 8-week treatment period as measured in their natural environments. The same participants will experience greater improved brain activation patterns and an improvement in cognitive functioning compared to placebo controlled subjects. 2. Measure the effects of citicoline on marihuana absorption and metabolism and determine if these changes parallel changes in subjective and physiological responses in a laboratory setting. Hypothesis - Chronic (8 weeks) treatment with 2 g/day citicoline will produce increases in subjective and physiological effects of both acute marihuana smoking and placebo marihuana smoking compared to chronic placebo citicoline. Citicoline will have no effect on marihuana pharmacokinetics. 3. Measure the effects of citicoline on marijuana-induced cue-induced craving and brain electrical activity (EEG). Hypothesis - Chronic (8 weeks) treatment with 2 g/day citicoline will reduce objective measures of marijuana cue-reactivity, and subjective reports of craving in response to marihuana cues will also be attenuated compared to chronic placebo citicoline treatment.
NCT00449904

NCT00548717

NCT01163032
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a six month double-mask treatment of tasimelteon or placebo in male and female subjects with Non-24-Hour Sleep-Wake Disorder
NCT00844896
The objectives of this study are to test and validate a simple, feasible intervention to reduce pediatric burn traumatic stress in 0-5 year old children and their parents. We have refined and implemented an early post-burn psychosocial assessment and intervention for stress reduction for young children and their parents based on the "DEF" Protocol (Distress, Emotional Support, Family) from NCTSN's 'Pediatric Medical Toolkit for Health Care Providers,' and a burn specific version of the COPE (Creating Opportunities for Parent Empowerment)intervention. It is hypothesized that the combined DEF + COPE Intervention will be simple to implement and use under both experimental and real world conditions. The proof of the latter hypothesis will be that staff at Shriners Hospitals for Children-Boston will willingly incorporate it into routine care by the end of the project. We will evaluate, using an RCT design, the DEF + COPE Intervention by comparing outcomes for subjects who are randomly assigned to receive it with outcomes for subjects who are assigned to receive the DEF Intervention only. It is hypothesized that children in the DEF + COPE Intervention Group will show significantly greater decreases over time in pain and anxiety ratings, heart rate, PTSD total symptom scores and physiological symptom scores (such as heart rate and heart rate variability from baseline to follow up) than will children in the DEF-only group. Similarly, it is hypothesized that parents assigned to the DEF + COPE group will show significantly decreased scores on the Stanford PTSD measure.
NCT00055120
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of starting anti-HIV drugs in HIV infected patients who are being treated for opportunistic infections (OIs). This study will follow two patient groups: those who received anti-HIV drugs soon after being diagnosed with an OI and patients with OIs who deferred beginning anti-HIV drugs until after recovering from the OI.
NCT01430754
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the maintenance effect and safety of 20 mg tasimelteon versus placebo in subjects suffering from Non-24-Hour Sleep-Wake Disorder.
NCT00924560
This study is being conducted to compare the effects of a 91-day oral contraceptive (OC) to a 28-day OC regimen on bone mineral density (BMD) in adolescent females.
NCT00449878
This is a clinical trial which will evaluate the efficacy of Liprotamase treatment in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (PI).
NCT00308308
To determine the safety and efficacy of inhaled insulin in the treatment of type 1 diabetes
NCT00309244
The purpose of this 13 month study (12 month treatment period and 1 month follow-up period) is to determine whether inhaled insulin is safe and effective in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
NCT01410331
This is a double-blind, placebo controlled study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of JVS-100 given to adult subjects with critical limb ischemia (CLI).
NCT01277523
The overall purpose of the trial is to evaluate efficacy and safety of tiotropium inhalation solution delivered via Respimat® inhaler (2.5 mcg and 5 mcg once daily) over 12 weeks, compared to placebo, as add-on controller therapy on top of usual care in adolescents (12 to 17 years old) with severe persistent asthma. The primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate superiority of tiotropium (5 mcg and possibly 2.5 mcg once daily in the evening) over placebo with regard to the primary pulmonary function endpoint after 12 weeks of treatment. Secondary objectives are to evaluate efficacy of tiotropium with regard to other endpoints, and to evaluate the safety of tiotropium, compared to placebo, as add-on controller therapy on top of usual care in this patient population.
NCT01472185
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multi-center study to determine the effect of ranolazine when given as monotherapy on glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who were inadequately controlled with diet and exercise alone and who are treatment naive to antihyperglycemic therapy or have not received antihyperglycemic therapy in the 90 days (or thiazolidinediones \[TZDs\] for at least 24 weeks) prior to screening, and to characterize the relationship between HbA1c reduction and other glycemic parameters in subjects with T2DM.
NCT00700622
The objective of this study is to demonstrate that TI® Inhalation Powder combined with Lantus® is as effective as Humalog® combined with Lantus® on HbA1c.
NCT00396877
Contemporary management of cyanotic congenital heart disease includes three stages of surgery. Incidence of shunt thrombosis and death between the two first stages of palliation remains important. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of Clopidogrel 0.2 mg/kg/day for the reduction of all cause mortality and shunt related morbidity in neonates or infants with cyanotic congenital heart disease palliated with a systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt (e.g. modified Blalock Taussig Shunt \[BTS\]). The secondary objective was to assess the safety of Clopidogrel in the study population.
NCT00209417
It is well known that X-ray contrast media can affect kidney function in some patients, especially when administered intra-arterially, and patients who already suffer from reduced kidney function and diabetes mellitus may be at increased risk. It is widely accepted to use low-osmolar or iso-osmolar contrast media, especially in patients at risk for contrast media-induced nephropathy. However, little is known about the intravenous use of X-ray contrast media in risk patients, such as contrast-enhanced CT examinations. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the effects on kidney function of two contrast media, the iso-osmolar iodixanol and the low-osmolar iopamidol in patients at risk of kidney damage associated with the injection of contrast media. Due to the iso-osmolar feature, it is expected less influence on renal function following administration of iodixanol. A standard hydration procedure, based on available guidelines will be given to all patients to prevent negative effects on the kidneys. Serum creatinine (SCr ) concentrations will be measured before and up to 7 days after contrast media administration to evaluate the effects on renal function.
NCT00361894
The purpose of this study is to assess if 10 mg Bay 59-7939, taken once daily as a tablet, is safe and prevents blood clot which may form after a knee replacement operation.
