NCT01142726
The primary purpose of the protocol is to demonstrate the ability of abatacept plus methotrexate to induce remission in patients with very early rheumatoid arthritis after 12 months of treatment and to maintain remission following 6 months of drug withdrawal.
NCT01597596
A study to demonstrate comparable safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of alglucosidase alfa manufactured at the 160 litre (L) and 4000 L scales in participants who had been diagnosed with infantile-onset Pompe disease. Participants were treated with alglucosidase alfa 160 L scale product in the United States (US) and 4000 L scale product in the regions outside the US.
NCT02500082
The purpose of this study is to determine whether triheptanoin (UX007) is effective in the treatment of neurological symptoms related to citrate transporter deficiency (SLC13A5 gene mutation).
NCT00589784
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, sunitinib has on patients and their tumors. At this time, no drugs are routinely used to treat meningioma, hemangioblastoma or hemangiopericytoma. Only surgery and radiation therapy are known to be useful. Sunitinib is a drug approved for advanced kidney cancer. Sunitinib is also being studied for other tumors. It may be useful in the treatment of brain tumors because it can prevent formation of new blood vessels that allow tumor cells to survive and grow.
NCT01435369
The purpose of this research study is to see if the study drug, CT-011, is safe to give and if it helps people with melanoma that has spread to other areas of their body. CT-011 is a monoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibodies are a type of drug that is typically given by infusion into a vein (intravenously). Monoclonal antibodies are antibodies made in a lab instead of by the immune system which then recruit the immune system to help fight cancer cells. All final eligible subjects will receive an intravenous infusion of CT-011. This study will test two dose levels of the study drug: Group 1: Patients in this group will be given the study drug at dose level 1 (1.5 mg/kg). Group 2: Patients in this group will be given the study drug at dose level 2 (6.0 mg/kg). Each group will be given the study drug through an IV (a needle put into a vein in the arm) on day 1. After day 1, the study drug will be given every other week. Patients may be given a total of up to 27 study drug infusions for about 12 months while they are in the study. Approximately 100 patients will participate in this study.
NCT00474994
RATIONALE: Sunitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well sunitinib works in treating patients with metastatic, locally advanced, or locally recurrent sarcomas.
NCT01385982
Clinically significant test results require timely clinician follow-up including the non-urgent clinically significant, or actionable, test results that have received less standardized management and attention. Unfortunately, failure to correctly manage actionable test results is not infrequent and may be associated with important delays in diagnosis and treatment and patient harm. The investigators have designed a safe practice intervention to improve the management of actionable test results for ambulatory patients in a large healthcare system.
NCT00468208
Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) is a rare disease that causes inflammation of blood vessels, or vasculitis. It may involve many different parts of the body, but typically affects the upper and lower respiratory tract and kidneys. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the medication abatacept in treating adults with mild relapsing WG.
NCT02076854
The aim of this study is to pilot an innovative motivational text-message intervention for individuals with anorexia nervosa and subthreshold anorexia nervosa. Patients will receive personalized motivational text-messages as an adjunct to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT will be provided to patients at no cost for the duration of the study. The investigators hypothesize that the text-messages will help increase motivation to change and kilocalorie intake and decrease eating disordered behavior.
NCT00888134
The purpose of this research study is to determine if selumetinib is safe and effective in treating patients with cancers with a mutated BRAF gene. Selumetinib is an investigational drug that works by blocking a protein called MEK, which is known to play a role in the growth of cancer cells lines and tumors that have a mutated BRAF gene. There are multiple types of cancers that have mutations in the BRAF gene and depend on the activity of this gene for their growth and survival.
NCT01287897
This is a proof of concept study to determine the efficacy and safety of a monoclonal antibody with three doses versus placebo. Subjects will be randomized to a treatment and the dose will be delivered subcutaneously twice, 4 weeks apart. All subjects will have moderate to severe refractory Crohn's Disease.
NCT02006732
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 12 weeks once daily treatment with orally inhaled tiotropium + olodaterol FDC (delivered by the Respimat inhaler) compared with tiotropium and placebo in patients with COPD.
NCT01874145
This is an open-label, randomized, multi-center, parallel-arm study to assess the safety and tolerability of a daily dose of Glatiramer Acetate (GA) 40 mg/mL three times a week (TIW) administered subcutaneously (SC) as compared to GA 20 mg/mL every day (QD) administered SC.
NCT01798914
The purpose of this study is to allow patients with specific needs for inhaled insulin to continue with inhaled insulin therapy using Technosphere Insulin after Exubera was withdrawn from the market.
NCT01769378
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of once-weekly dulaglutide compared to placebo in participants with type 2 diabetes who have inadequate glycemic control with sulfonylurea monotherapy.
NCT01137968
The purpose of this is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of imetelstat (GRN163L) as maintenance therapy for patients with advanced stage NSCLC who have not progressed after 4 cycles of platinum based therapy. Participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to imetelstat + standard of care versus standard of care alone. Participants who received bevacizumab with their induction chemotherapy will continue to receive bevacizumab on this study.
NCT01637259
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an emerging problem in patients with treated HIV. Antiretroviral therapy associated renal dysfunction has been predominantly described in terms of reduced glomerular filtration (eGFR). Proteinuria is a key component of CKD and may occur in the absence of significant reductions in eGFR. This substudy is an exploration of changes in urinary protein excretion in a randomised, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MVC as a switch for either nucleoside or nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (N(t)RTI) or boosted protease inhibitors (PI/r) in HIV-1 infected individuals with stable, well-controlled plasma HIV-RNA while taking their first N(t)RTI + PI/r regimen of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART).
NCT01533181
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how OSI-906 compares to Topotecan in trying to slow down the growth and/or progression of the tumors of participants with relapsed or recurrent Small Cell Lung Cancer. This study also plans to find out what effects, good or bad (side effects), OSI-906 has on participants and or Small Cell Lung Cancer. The study will also investigate if some proteins measured in the blood or tumor and some imaging features obtained from computed tomography (CT) scans can help predict whether OSI-906 or topotecan will be effective against Small Cell Lung Cancer.
NCT00929188
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of JNJ-42160443 with placebo in the treatment of chronic, moderate to severe cancer-related pain in terminally ill patients with a diagnosis of active cancer.
NCT00664573
To observe the long-term treatment with BG9924 when administered to participants with RA who previously participated in a Biogen Idec Study.
