NCT00450281
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood and tissue from smokers (closed to entry as of 7/15/07) and non-smokers with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors learn more about risk factors for lung cancer and may help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying carcinogens in lung tissue from smokers (closed to entry as of 7/15/07) and non-smokers with newly diagnosed stage I, stage II, or stage III non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT00738881
This randomized phase III trial studies pemetrexed disodium to see how well it works compared with erlotinib hydrochloride as second-line therapy in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Pemetrexed disodium and erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether pemetrexed disodium is more effective than erlotinib hydrochloride in treating advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT01052077
This is a Double-blind study wherein patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) will receive either from 1 to 3 mg a day of study medication (OPC-34712)or placebo (an inactive substance) in addition to an FDA approved antidepressant in order to determine if the study medication is effective as an add on treatment of MDD.
NCT01256489
The proposed study is intended to test the idea, based upon current knowledge of the biology and physiology of corneal ulceration in SJS/TENS patients who receive a keratoprosthesis, and on the known effects of infliximab on matrix metalloproteinases, that infliximab therapy for such patients may reduce the likelihood of corneal ulceration, and hence extend the period of prosthesis retention and vision recovery.
NCT00233883
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability of a subcutaneous needle-free injection device used to administer Fuzeon, compared with the standard needle/syringe supplied with commercial Fuzeon. The anticipated time on study treatment is \<3 months, and the target sample size is \<100 individuals.
NCT00625612
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of one dose strength of Denufosol compared to placebo in patients with CF and a predicted FEV1 of greater than or equal to 75% but less than or equal to 110% predicted.
NCT00406991
The project aims to find mechanisms for the abnormal retinal blood flow that in diabetic patients often precedes any evidence of clinical retinopathy and may contribute to the development of retinopathy. Specifically, the projects tests the hypothesis that reduced retinal blood flow found in young patients with type 1 diabetes reflects increased resistance in the small vessels of the retina caused by the formation of small blood clots, called microthrombi; and that antiplatelet agents normalize the reduced retinal blood flow.
NCT00560235
Define the efficacy of CP-751,871 in patients with Ewing's sarcoma family of tumors
NCT01121575
Lung cancer tumors become resistant to the first generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors erlotinib or gefitinib by changing and increasing the activity of two cell signaling pathways: the cMET pathway and the EGFR pathway. Both resistance mechanisms can occur at the same time, in the same patient and even in the same tumor. This study combines a second generation EGFR inhibitor and a cMET inhibitor to block both these pathways in order to overcome resistance and treat this disease.
NCT02032888
A study of the efficacy and safety of the combination of daclatasvir and sofosbuvir in the treatment of hepatitis C virus and HIV coinfection.
NCT01457404
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and practicality, feasibility and efficacy of ICBT for co-occurring PTSD and substance use disorders within the OEF/OIF/OND Veterans population, as delivered by routine clinicians at the Veterans Affairs.
NCT01370733
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of synchronized transcranial magnetic stimulation (sTMS) using the NeoSync EEG Synchronized TMS device (NEST) in subjects with Major Depressive Disorder. This is a multicenter study in which subjects will be randomized to receive treatment 5 days per week for 6 weeks. Subjects who complete 6 weeks of double-blind treatment may be eligible to receive up to four weeks of open label sTMS therapy or antidepressant medications during the follow-up phase of the study. Follow-up evaluation visits will be conducted during those four weeks, with the frequency of the visits determined by the treatment choice during that timeframe.
NCT00112346
The primary purpose of this study is to estimate the number of patients with non-small cell lung cancer whose tumor responds to the treatments given in this study.
NCT00477490
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of several doses of the melt formulation of desmopressin in a broad population of adult patients with nocturia.
NCT00207155
The purpose of this study is to predict response to Erbitux as a single agent in patients with metastatic colon cancer
NCT00103948
This is an 18-week, prospective, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, (1:1) parallel-group study.
NCT00879333
This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of RAD001 monotherapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer which has progressed after one or two lines of prior chemotherapy.
NCT00397683
The purpose of this study is to test MK0822 on disease activity in patients with osteoarthritis in the knee. Disease modifying activity of MK0822 will be assessed by measurements of knee cartilage using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the knee. This is an early phase trial and some specific protocol information is proprietary and not publicly available at this time. (Full information is available to trial participants).
NCT00928512
This study will assess at Week 16 the efficacy and safety of AIN457 at different doses in patients with active RA despite stable MTX therapy. Treatment will continue up to Week 48 with a safety follow-up at Week 60 to assess the long term efficacy and safety of AIN457 treatment in combination with MTX in RA.
NCT00688571
This non-randomized, prospective, interventional observational multi-center study is designed to assess the long-term clinical performance of the Medtronic Melody™ Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve (TPV) in the post market environment over a period of five years after transcatheter implantation in patients with dysfunctional RVOT conduits. In addition, the quality of life of implanted subjects will be assessed over five years.
