The purpose of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety and tolerability of apremilast (30 mg twice daily \[BID\] and 40 mg BID), compared with placebo, in participants with active Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
NCT00419562
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease. This means that the immune system (the part of the body which helps fight infections) mistakenly attacks and destroys the cells that produce insulin (islet cells found in the pancreas). As these cells are destroyed, the body's ability to produce insulin decreases. There is evidence suggesting that repeated oral administration of an autoantigen (the same protein that the immune system is reacting to) may introduce a protective immunity and cause the immune system to stop its attack. An earlier, large scale study was done to see if oral insulin could delay or prevent the development of Type 1 diabetes in relatives at risk for developing Type 1 diabetes. The overall results showed that for the entire study population, oral insulin did not delay or prevent Type 1 diabetes. However, an analysis that was done after the conclusion of the trial suggested a potential beneficial effect in a subgroup of participants. The participants who seemed to benefit from oral insulin had higher levels of insulin autoantibodies which are directed against insulin itself ( called mIAA). The Type 1 Diabetes TrialNet study group will further explore the potential role of oral insulin to delay or prevent Type 1 diabetes in a similar group of people. The study will also include a secondary group of individuals at different levels of risk than those in the primary cohort to gather information for future studies.
NCT00279305
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. Without these beta cells, the body cannot maintain proper blood glucose levels in response to daily activities such as eating or exercise. With fewer insulin producing cells blood glucose increases, causing hunger, thirst, and unexplained weight loss. By the time these symptoms develop, 80-90% of a person's beta cells have already been destroyed. However, this also means that between 10-20% of these cells remain that continue to produce insulin. Scientists have learned that two types of immune cells, B cells and T cells, are involved in causing type 1 diabetes. T cells are responsible for attacking and destroying the beta cells that make insulin. Although they don't attack insulin producing cells, B cells may be what trigger the T cells to attack. This study will investigate the use of rituximab to see if it can help lower the number of immune B cells thereby preventing the destruction of any remaining insulin producing beta cells that remain at diagnosis. Rituximab is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of a condition called B-lymphocyte lymphoma. Its effects on the immune system are well understood through its use in organ transplantation. Research has shown that rituximab might be helpful in treating other conditions caused by T cells and B cells, including type 1 diabetes. The goal of this study is to find out if rituximab can preserve residual insulin secretion and prevent further beta cell destruction in type 1 diabetes.

NCT00052910
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use 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 chemotherapy with radiation therapy after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells following surgery. It is not yet known which chemotherapy and radiation therapy regimen is more effective in treating stomach or esophageal cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare two different chemotherapy and radiation therapy regimens in treating patients who have undergone surgery for stomach or esophageal cancer.

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate efficacy including effect on inhibition of progression of structural damage, safety and tolerability up to 2 years with primary focus at Week 16 (week 24 for structural damage), to support the use of secukinumab pre-filled syringe (PFS) by subcutaneous (s.c.) self-administration with or without loading regimen in subjects with active Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) despite current or previous NSAID, DMARD therapy and/or previous anti-TNFα therapy. Long term efficacy up to 2 years was based on signs and symptoms of joint/bone structure preservation (X-ray) and improvement in physical function measured by Health Assessment Questionnaire - Disability Index (HAQ-DI©), as well as skin and nail improvement for psoriasis signs.
NCT03251092
Part 1 of this trial will enroll healthy volunteers into a single ascending dose (SAD), multiple ascending dose (MAD), and Food Effect (FE) treatment groups. The SAD treatment group is comprised of at least 3 ascending dose level cohorts where healthy adult subjects will be randomized to receive a single dose of either PTI-808 or placebo and will be followed for 7 days post dose. A safety review committee (SRC) will convene after the completion of each cohort to evaluate safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) data. Following the conclusion of the respective SAD level dose groups and after sufficient review of study data and approval by the SRC, a second set of healthy adult subjects will participate in an assigned MAD treatment group. The MAD treatment group is comprised of 3 ascending dose level cohorts where subjects will be randomized to receive either PTI-808 or placebo daily for 7 days and will be followed for 7 days after receiving the last dose. Also following the conclusion of the respective SAD level dose groups, healthy adult subjects will participate in the FE treatment group. Part 2 of this will enroll healthy volunteers to assess the safety, tolerability, and PK of PTI 808 co administered with PTI 801 and PTI 428 to HVs with daily dosing for 7 consecutive days. Part 3 will enroll adult subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) into a MAD treatment group consisting of 2 cohorts. Subjects will receive PTI-808 co-administered with PTI-801 and PTI-428. PTI-808 will be administered daily for 7 consecutive days followed by PTI-808 + PTI-801 + PTI-428 administered daily for 14 consecutive days. Part 4 will enroll adult subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) into 28-day cohorts. Subjects will receive PTI-808 co-administered with PTI-801 with or without PTI-428 versus matching placebo.

NCT00086658
Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a rare disease with broad clinical signs and symptoms which is diagnosed based on a persistent blood eosinophil count of greater than 1500 cells, various end-organ damages (including skin, heart, lung, nervous system and digestive system etc.), and with exclusion of known secondary causes of hypereosinophilia. HES has a high morbidity/mortality rate. The major treatment of HES has been systemic corticosteroid and other chemotherapeutic drugs (for example, hydroxyurea and interferon) with the intention to lower eosinophil counts and therefore to slow down the progression of disease. Even though corticosteroid and other therapies can effectively reduce eosinophilia in some patients, some may eventually become nonresponsive and intolerable to the amount of side effects of the long-term therapy with these medications. Mepolizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds specifically to human interleukin 5 (hIL-5) and inhibits its activity. Previous human experience has shown it has been effective in reducing blood eosinophilia in atopic and HES patients and has alleviated some HES clinical signs and symptoms. This study intends to further evaluate the corticosteroid-sparing and clinical benefit of mepolizumab in HES.
NCT01734382
PART1 Participants in Part 1 (Run-in-Phase) of study will receive tocilizumab (TCZ) (RoActemra/Actemra) 12 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) or 8 mg/kg intravenously (IV) every 2 weeks (Q2W) for up to 24 weeks. Participants who experience a laboratory abnormality during Part 1 may be eligible to move into Part 2 of the study. PART 2 This open-label Phase IV study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of tocilizumab in reduced dose frequency in participants with adequately controlled systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis who have experienced a laboratory abnormality on twice weekly tocilizumab dosing, that has since resolved. Participants will receive tocilizumab 12 mg/kg or 8 mg/kg intravenously every 3 weeks. After 5 consecutive infusions, participants who experience an event of neutropenia, thrombocytopenia or liver enzyme abnormality will move to every 4 weeks tocilizumab administration. Anticipated time on study treatment is 52 weeks.
NCT02140580
Trial question: Does administration of exogenous surfactant using a minimally-invasive technique improve outcome in preterm infants 25-28 weeks gestation treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)? Trial hypothesis: That early surfactant administration via a minimally-invasive technique to preterm infants on CPAP will result in a lesser duration of mechanical respiratory support, and a higher incidence of survival without bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Trial design: Multicentre, randomised, masked, controlled trial in inborn preterm infants 25-28 weeks gestation, aged less than 6 hours, requiring CPAP because of respiratory distress, with an FiO2 of \>=0.3 and CPAP pressure 5-8. Infants randomised to surfactant treatment receive 200 mg/kg of poractant alfa (Curosurf) administered under direct laryngoscopy using a surfactant instillation catheter, followed by reinstitution of CPAP. Controls continue on CPAP. The intervention is masked from the clinical team. Care thereafter is as per usual in both groups, other than the requirement to adhere to intubation criteria. The primary outcome is incidence of death or BPD. Secondary outcomes include incidence of death, major neonatal morbidities (BPD, intraventricular haemorrhage, periventricular leukomalacia, retinopathy of prematurity, necrotising enterocolitis), pneumothorax and patent ductus arteriosus; need for intubation and surfactant therapy; durations of mechanical respiratory support, intubation, CPAP, intubation and CPAP, high flow nasal cannula (HFNC), oxygen therapy, intensive care stay and hospitalisation; hospitalisation cost; applicability and safety of the MIST procedure; and outcome at 2 years. The sample size is 303/group, allowing detection of a 33% difference in the primary outcome with 90% power. The trial commenced at Royal Hobart Hospital December 2011 and Royal Women's Hospital during 2012, and will ultimately be conducted over 5 years in multiple centres internationally.
NCT04377412
The article presents a protocol of a cross-sectional study of mental health of pregnant women in relation to the COVID 19 pandemic. The primary aim is to compare differences in anxiety and depression scores of pregnant women between countries affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The secondary aim is to assess demographic, economic, and social aspects affecting maternal anxiety and depression scores among pregnant women worldwide in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, investigators will be able to compare differences in perception of the different aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic (social distancing, restrictions related to delivery) between countries and according to the epidemic status (number of infected patients, number of reported deaths). The comparisons will also be done according to COVID-19 status of the participants.
