NCT00279981
The purpose of this study is to look at the heart rate and rhythm information collected daily in Medtronic implantable pulse generators (IPG), implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) devices. The study will gather this information from many patients to see if heart rate or rhythm data can predict the risk of a patient having a medical condition such as stroke.
NCT00011323
The goals of this project are to establish a new cohort of male veterans and describe associations between potential risk factors and baseline bone mineral density (BMD) as well as rates of BMD loss.
NCT00444743
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and biologic activity of MM-093 in patients with moderate to severe uveitis.
NCT00275769
This study compares the pacemaker's automatic pacing threshold measurements to the manual measurements conducted by a health care provider.
NCT00075894
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as alanosine, use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of alanosine in treating patients with high-grade progressive or recurrent malignant gliomas.
NCT00307515
A comparison of fibrin sealant 2 versus Surgicel® as an addition to standard surgical practice in stopping mild to moderate soft tissue bleeding during retroperitoneal or intra-abdominal surgery.
NCT00430898
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, effectiveness and pharmacokinetics of two levels of intravenous basiliximab in ulcerative colitis, compared to placebo.
NCT00820638
Up to 25 subjects will use the Myomoe100 in the home setting under the distant supervision of an occupational therapist. We will look to see if they can perform functional activities safely without adverse events.
NCT00659347
The primary objectives of this placebo-controlled trial are to evaluate effectiveness and safety of DOV 21,947 at two oral dose levels.
NCT00116610
This is a Phase II research study that is designed for patients who have small cell lung cancer (SCLC) that is no longer responding to treatment. Patients will receive picoplatin, a new platinum-based agent that is currently under investigation, in 21-day cycles.
NCT00081380
The purpose of this study is to determine whether quetiapine when used as adjunct to lithium or divalproex is safe and effective in the maintenance treatment of adult patients with Bipolar I Disorder. The study consists of enrollment and 2 phases, the Open-label treatment Phase and the Randomized treatment Phase. PLEASE NOTE: Seroquel SR and Seroquel XR refer to the same formulation. The SR designation was changed to XR after consultation with FDA.
NCT00083447
TransMID treatment or best standard of care for patients with advanced glioblastoma multiforme Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a type of brain tumour. GBM tumours are usually treated with surgery and radiotherapy. Unfortunately, this type of brain tumour may continue to grow or come back (recur) despite treatment. This trial will compare a new drug called TransMID with the best standard treatment that is currently available. TransMID is a drug that is a combination of a protein called transferrin and a poison called diphtheria toxin. Cancer cells need iron in order to continue to grow. They need more iron than normal cells. Transferrin helps cells to take up available iron. So the cancer cells are attached to the transferrin in TransMID, and the diphtheria poison kills them. The aim of this treatment is to kill the cancer cells while not affecting the normal brain cells. This treatment for brain tumours may have fewer side effects than other treatments because it targets cancer cells. The best standard treatment will involve giving chemotherapy. You may have chemotherapy as part of the treatment when you are diagnosed. Or it may be kept in reserve to treat your brain tumour if it comes back or continues to grow. Your cancer specialist (consultant) will decide which chemotherapy drugs you should have.
NCT00380302
Primary: This study is being conducted to evaluate if AVE1625 is safe and tolerated in patients with Alzheimer's disease that is not too severe. There is also evaluation of whether patients who take the study medication improve compared to patients who take a placebo (sugar pill). Secondary:The study will also evaluate the blood levels of the study medication, AVE1625 in patients who join the study.
NCT00007592
Hypertension is one of the most common medical problems in the United States and in the VA health care system. It has been well-documented that hypertension can be effectively treated. However, there remain important unresolved clinical questions in the area of antihypertensive treatment. For example, how much is mortality affected by visit compliance, blood pressure control and type of antihypertensive agent? Or, are some regimens associated with more morbidity than others? Or, are there inexpensive regimens that are as effective as more expensive regimens? The amount of data that is available from this demonstration project (currently 6,100 patients) will help address these questions. The answers to these questions should result in better care for veterans with hypertension.
NCT00267930
This study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of vernakalant (oral) in subjects with sustained atrial fibrillation of greater than 72 hours and less than 6 months duration
NCT00361491
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of SSR149415 in the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder, defined as a change from baseline to visit 7 in the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. To evaluate the tolerability, safety and efficacy on disability and quality of life in patients with major depressive disorder.To evaluate plasma concentrations of SSR149415.
NCT00501384
The primary objective is to determine the optimal dose or range of doses of SR121463B for the reduction in recurrence of ascites, when used concomitantly with a standard dose regimen of spironolactone. The secondary objective was to determine the tolerability of different fixed doses of SR121463B in cirrhotic ascites, over a 12-week treatment period. This SPA study is followed by a single-blind, placebo-controlled, 40 weeks long-term safety extension (ExSPA). The first extension is followed by another long-term study (PASCCAL-1).
