NCT00375102
This one-year pilot study has two specific aims: 1. to determine the feasibility of conducting a randomized controlled trial of acupuncture and the relaxation response for substance abuse among homeless veterans who are in a domiciliary care program, and 2. to collect and analyze pilot data to estimate the effect size for planning a future larger study to fully test the hypothesis of the effectiveness of acupuncture and the RR in reducing cravings for substances (alcohol and drugs), and the corollary effects on quality of life.
NCT01687270
This is an open-label, single-arm study of sofosbuvir (GS-7977) and ribavirin (RBV) in adults who have had a liver transplant which has become re-infected with hepatitis C. The treatment period is 24 weeks with up to 48 weeks of follow up. The total time in this study will last up to 72 weeks not including the screening visit.
NCT00079716
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and activity of SGN-40 in a weekly dosage schedule as a single agent.
NCT01716845
This study will prospectively enroll approximately 660 children, at least 18 months and less than 5 years of age, who have been referred to a pediatric developmental evaluation centers. Enrolled children will have blood drawn for RNA gene expression analysis and undergo a clinical evaluation to determine the presence or absence of a diagnosis of ASD. The sequential co-primary objectives of this study are: * To develop an algorithm to classify blood RNA gene expression patterns to maximize agreement between the classification and a clinical assessment of presence or absence of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). * To prospectively assess the clinical sensitivity and specificity of the blood RNA gene expression classification algorithm (the SDX-002 test) in children referred to a developmental evaluation clinic for a possible developmental disorder.
NCT00798317
This trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of microplasmin, administered as an intravitreal injection, in subjects with focal vitreomacular adhesion. In previously performed clinical trials, some patients treated with intravitreal microplasmin have had resolution of their underlying condition, including macular hole closure, without need for vitrectomy. This clinical trial is justified because the sponsor believes the potential benefits outweigh the potential risks.
NCT01917630
To determine the effects of 12 weeks administration of different dose levels of ALV003 on the mucosal lining of the small intestine and symptoms in celiac disease patients.
NCT01687114
This protocol is a clinical trial to validate proanthocyanidin A2 (PAC-A2) as a useful marker of cranberry intake. We hypothesize the consumption of this cranberry beverage in a progressive dosing schedule will increase PAC-A2 excretion in urine. Five generally healthy, nonsmoking, pre-menopausal women (absent major chronic diseases including cardiovascular, endocrine, gastrointestinal, and renal conditions), age 20-40 years, with a body mass index (BMI) of 18.5-25 kg/m2 will be recruited from the Boston area because sexually active women in this age range are particularly vulnerable to urinary tract infection. Volunteers will be asked to consume their assigned cranberry beverage at a dose of 8 oz/day according to a weekly dosing schedule. Relevant clinical information and eleven 24-hour and morning spot urine samples each will be collected from subjects during the study. Urinary PAC-A2 concentration will then be determined to validate if it can serve as a marker of compliance of cranberry juice consumption.
NCT00117559
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a group psychotherapy intervention and a telehealth intervention for veterans undergoing interferon treatment for the hepatitis C virus. It is hypothesized that the cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) condition and the telehealth condition will result in significantly improved outcomes, including enhanced adherence, quality of life, and psychological status.
NCT00825734
In this study, patients with metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer will receive treatment with ixabepilone and sorafenib until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. The Phase I portion of this study will determine the maximum tolerated doses (MTDs) of sorafenib and ixabepilone that may be used in combination for first- or second-line treatment of MBC. The MTDs identified in the Phase I portion of the study will be used in the Phase II portion which will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of sorafenib and ixabepilone in patients who have received at least one prior chemotherapy treatment in either the adjuvant or neoadjuvant setting or following one prior MBC chemotherapy in MBC patients who had not received prior adjuvant or neoadjuvant breast cancer chemotherapy. This will be one of the initial trials investigating the use of this treatment combination for MBC. This trial will be conducted under the leadership of the Sarah Cannon Research Institute (SCRI) Oncology Research Consortium, a community-based, multi-center, clinical trial organization.
NCT00821886
In this phase II trial the investigators propose to evaluate ixabepilone in combination with carboplatin and trastuzumab as neoadjuvant therapy in locally advanced breast cancer patients. Patients with early stage, HER2-positive breast cancer will receive six cycles of neoadjuvant treatment with ixabepilone, carboplatin, and trastuzumab every three weeks prior to surgery; after surgery, patients will continue treatment with trastuzumab every three weeks until week 52. Concomitant with the post-operative trastuzumab treatment, patients with hormone receptor-positive tumors will receive anti-estrogen treatment. Also, after the completion of chemotherapy, patients may receive radiation treatment at the discretion of their physician.
NCT00306150
The purpose of this study is to assess if aprotinin (BAYA0128), given intravenously during your surgery, is safe and can help reduce the need for a blood transfusion during bladder surgery.
NCT01288027
This is an open-label, multicenter study of participants with late-onset Pompe disease naive to treatment with enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). The primary objective of this study is to evaluate glycogen clearance in muscle tissue samples collected pre and post alglucosidase alfa treatment in participants with Late-Onset Pompe disease. The secondary objectives are to characterize the disease burden in participants with late-onset Pompe disease and explore imaging, histologic, and functional assessments in these participants and to explore potential plasma or urine biomarkers relative to late-onset Pompe disease and participant's response to treatment with alglucosidase alfa (Myozyme®/Lumizyme®/GZ419829).
NCT01026233
The purpose of this study is to evaluate cardiac safety of brentuximab vedotin (SGN-35) in patients with CD30-positive cancers. The study will assess electrical activity of the heart before and after brentuximab vedotin administration. Patients who have stable or improving disease may receive up to 1 year of brentuximab vedotin treatment.
NCT01476423
This observational registry is conducted in Europe, Asia, Africa and the United States of America (USA). The purpose of the registry is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of activated recombinant human factor VII (rFVIIa) during bleeding episodes and for the prevention of bleeding during invasive procedures/surgery in patients with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia (GT) with past or present refractoriness to platelet transfusions. Attention will be directed towards complications related to thrombo-embolic events and concomitant medications especially antifibrinolytics.
NCT00059462

NCT01289847
The main objective is to determine the efficacy of Gammaplex by measuring the number of serious acute bacterial infections during treatment with Gammaplex over a 12 month period. The secondary objectives are to assess the safety and tolerability of Gammaplex and to compare the data collected from adult subjects with PID from the GMX01 study
NCT00791479
This is a study to demonstrate that different doses of once-weekly LY2189265 injected subcutaneously will have dose proportional effect on hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) at 12 weeks in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
NCT00982020
Open-label safety study of oral olanzapine treatment in adolescents, aged 13 to 17 years, with bipolar I disorder (manic or mixed episodes) or schizophrenia.
NCT01674712
This is a double-blind, randomized study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of two fixed combinations of fenofibrate / simvastatin 145/20 mg and fenofibrate / simvastatin 145/40 mg tablets vs. matching monotherapies in subjects with abnormal fat (lipids) in the blood and at high risk of cardiovascular disease. Fenofibrate is a treatment that lowers fat in blood. It is prescribed in patients with high levels of triglycerides (TG). The drug has been marketed in more than 80 countries since 1975. Simvastatin is also used for the treatment of patients with a high level of cholesterol. These have also been marketed worldwide for more than 20 years. It is important to treat high levels of fats in the blood because it has been shown that even mildly elevated level of lipids in the blood can lead to diseases of the blood vessels. It has been shown in several studies and in clinical practice that the combination of fenofibrate plus simvastatin can lead to improved effects on blood fats, compared to treatment with simvastatin or fenofibrate alone. The main objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of the two fixed-combinations (FC) -fenofibrate/simvastatin 145/20 mg tablet and fenofibrate/simvastatin 145/40 mg tablet in reducing TG and increasing high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) versus simvastatin 20 mg or 40 mg, and in reducing low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) versus fenofibrate 145 mg.
