NCT01147458
PF-04191834 works in animal models by inhibiting one of the enzymes, 5-lipoxygenasein which is involved in the pathway that causes inflammation and pain. The purpose of this study is to test how effective, safe and tolerated PF-04191834 is in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee by itself or with naproxen, particularly to test if patients have less pain.
NCT00856973
A multi center, randomized study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of eszopiclone compared to placebo in children (6-11 years of age, inclusive) and adolescents (12-17 years of age, inclusive) with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) associated insomnia.
NCT00961493
The purpose of this study is to determine whether acceptance-based behavior therapy for GAD results in greater symptom reduction and increased quality of life than applied relaxation.
NCT00181831
The primary aim of this study is to use proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy to look at myo-Inositol containing compounds (Ino) and creatine + phosphocreatine (Cr) in the anterior cingulate of 20 children with bipolar disorder between the ages of 6-17 years old free of risperidone treatment and 20 children with bipolar disorder after an eight-week or longer treatment with risperidone. For comparison, results will also be obtained from 20 controls (without bipolar disorder or ADHD) of the same age and gender as well as from 20 children or adolescents with a diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. We hypothesize that Ino/Cr levels in the anterior cingulate will correlate positively with manic symptoms using the Young mania rating scale (YMRS). Ino/Cr levels in the anterior cingulate in the anterior cingular gyrus will be lower in subjects who have received eight weeks or longer of risperidone
NCT00527423
Rollover study for subjects in prior VEGF Trap-Eye Phase I and II studies. Primary objective is to assess long-term safety and tolerability of continuing intravitreal treatment in subjects with wet age-related macular degeneration.
NCT00671463
The purpose of this study is to investigate an intervention to prevent complications after pancreas surgery. The goal is to determine if placing a stent into the pancreatic duct before surgery will decrease or prevent leaking from the pancreatic duct after surgery. Leaks are common after pancreas surgery and can result in serious problems and post-operative pain. The study will compare two groups. One group will have the stent before surgery, and the other group will have standard pancreas surgery, no endoscopy, and no stent.
NCT00005643
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of liposomal doxorubicin in treating patients who have advanced or recurrent sarcoma of the uterus.
NCT00005861
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of liposomal doxorubicin in treating women who have recurrent, stage III, or stage IV endometrial cancer.
NCT00006096
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known if radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy kills more tumor cells than radiation therapy alone in treating cancer of the vulva. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of radiation therapy with or without cisplatin in treating patients who have stage I, stage II, or stage III cancer of the vulva.
NCT00098605
Lapatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for their growth. This phase II trial is studying how well lapatinib works in treating brain metastases in patients with stage IV breast cancer and brain metastases.
NCT00087269
This phase II trial is studying how well erlotinib works in treating patients with stage I, stage II, or stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Giving erlotinib before surgery may shrink the tumor so that it can be removed.
NCT01153451
Specific Aims: (Study #1, funded by AHRQ, completed May 2011) 1. To create an automatic notification system to prompt physicians of test results finalized after discharge. 2. To evaluate the impact of this system on physician awareness of test results finalized after discharge. Hypothesis: Automatic email notification will improve physician awareness of test results finalized after discharge compared to usual care. Specific Aims: (Study #2, funded by CRICO, completed July 2012) 1. To identify a cohort of discharged patients with potentially actionable results of tests pending at discharge (TPAD). 2. To determine if automated email notification of the finalized results of potentially actionable TPADs affects the rate of post-discharge actions taken as documented in the electronic medical record (EMR). Hypothesis: Automated email notification of the finalized results of potentially actionable TPADs increases the rate of actions taken post-discharge.
NCT00003694
Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of homoharringtonine plus low-dose cytarabine in treating patients who have newly diagnosed chronic phase chronic myelogenous leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells.
NCT00052559
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bevacizumab when given together with fluorouracil and external-beam radiation therapy in treating patients with stage II or stage III rectal cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining monoclonal antibody therapy with chemotherapy and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
NCT01874964
Methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) has been shown to be effective in reducing drug use, criminal activity and recidivism. Given this effectiveness, maintaining individuals who are enrolled in community MMT when committed to the Department of Corrections for short term incarceration would improve post release outcomes. However, this is rarely practiced in the United States. Current practice at the Rhode Island Department of Corrections is to detox inmates on methadone within 30 days of being incarcerated. More than 75% of these individuals are incarcerated for less than six months. The period immediately after release from incarceration is a particularly high-risk time for HIV and other problems including drug relapse and overdose. The investigators hypothesize that inmates who are incarcerated for 6 months or less will have better outcomes and cost the state less money if they are maintained on their methadone dose and relinked to their community clinic at release, than the current practice of detoxification.
NCT00022672
This 2 arm study assessed the safety and efficacy of adding intravenous trastuzumab (Herceptin®) to daily oral anastrozole (Arimidex®) tablets as first- and second-line treatment in postmenopausal patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) overexpressing metastatic breast cancer (ER+ve and/or PR+ve). Patients were randomized to receive either anastrazole 1 mg per os (po) daily, or anastrazole 1 mg po daily + a loading dose of Herceptin® 4 mg/kg intravenous (iv) followed by weekly doses of Herceptin® 2 mg/kg iv. The anticipated time on study treatment was until disease progression, and the target sample size was 100-500 individuals.
NCT00003179
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development or recurrence of cancer. The use of surgery with or without medroxyprogesterone may be an effective way to prevent the development of endometrial cancer in patients who have endometrial hyperplasia. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of surgery alone with that of medroxyprogesterone followed by surgery in preventing endometrial cancer in patients who have endometrial hyperplasia.
NCT01091051
This study will provide data on sasety and efficacy of Ustekinumab in patients suffering from Palmo-Plantar Pustular Psoriasis (PPPP) or Palmo-Plantar Pustulosis(PPP)
NCT00051220
This study will compare the effectiveness of three treatments in reducing symptoms of phobia in children and adolescents.
