NCT00327691
The primary objective of this study is to determine the degree of additional reduction in cardiovascular risk that was accrued to patients by lowering their LDL-C beyond the currently accepted minimum target level for patients with pre-existing CHD. Secondary objectives include the safety profile of this treatment strategy, its cost-effectiveness, effect on other atherosclerotic-related events and procedures, and total mortality.
NCT00316459

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, cost and effectiveness of interventions designed to integrate buprenorphine treatment for opioid dependence into HIV primary care in ten HIV care centers in the U.S.
NCT00255528
This was a 4-week, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, parallel-group study to determine the antihypertensive dose range, efficacy, safety and tolerability of TOPROL-XL ® (metoprolol succinate) extended-release tablets (metoprolol CR/XL) in hypertensive pediatric subjects. The study population included school age children (age 6 to \< Tanner Stage 3) and adolescents (\> Tanner Stage 3 to age 16) of both genders. No more than 50% of the randomized subjects could be adolescents (\> Tanner Stage 3 to 16 years old). Since response to some therapies in adult hypertension appears to be different in black and non-black populations, recruitment was aimed at a mixture of black and non-black children. The design included a 1-week screening period (for treatment naive subjects), a 1-week single-blind placebo run-in period, and a 4-week double-blind treatment period. Eligible subjects were randomized to the double-blind period with a once daily oral dose of metoprolol CR/XL to one of three target doses: 0.2, 1.0 and 2.0 mg/kg, or placebo. Dosing was weight adjusted. The dose range for this study was 12.5 to 200 mg daily. Subjects were closely monitored and evaluated at the end of Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4 during the double-blind treatment period.
NCT00283361
The main purpose of this study is to see if the experimental drug ZP120, when given with the approved drug furosemide to patients with acute or sub-acute heart failure, can reduce the amount of fluid in the patients' lungs and make breathing easier.
NCT00424411
To determine, in subjects with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: 1. Whether glycemic control can be achieved at least as effectively with an insulin regimen involving pre-meal EXUBERA™ (inhaled insulin) plus a single bedtime Ultralente injection as with a conventional subcutaneous insulin regimen involving 2 mixed Regular/NPH insulin injections per day. 2. The toleration and safety of EXUBERA™ (inhaled insulin) therapy and its effects after 6 months, if any, on measures of pulmonary function.
NCT00061464
The purposes of this study are to determine: 1. The safety of pemetrexed plus Gemcitabine and any side effects that might be associated with the combination of these two drugs. 2. Whether pemetrexed plus Gemcitabine can help patients with non-small cell lung cancer live longer. 3. Whether pemetrexed plus Gemcitabine can make the tumor smaller or disappear, and for how long. 4. To see if patients feel better while taking pemetrexed plus Gemcitabine.
NCT00421031
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 4 doses of desvenlafaxine-233 sustained release (DVS-233 SR) as compared to placebo for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause, as well as its influence on sleep parameters and other health outcomes indicators.
NCT00141414
To evaluate the long-term safety of pregabalin in refractory partial epilepsy.
NCT00048425
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a 24-hour infusion of levosimendan compared with placebo in the treatment of decompensated chronic heart failure.
NCT00051051
CI-1033 is an experimental drug that acts as an inhibitor of erbB (EGFR) receptors, which may be involved in tumor growth. The primary objective of this study is to assess the antitumor activity of CI-1033 in patients with metastatic breast cancer. Patients with histologically confirmed metastatic (Stage IV) breast cancer and who have received no more than 2 prior cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens are eligible for this study. CI-1033 is administered orally. Patients are required to have blood tests periodically while receiving treatment and will be closely monitored throughout the study for possible side effects and response to treatment. Patients may not have received any prior treatment with other agents that target erbB receptors, including Herceptin (trastuzumab) or Iressa (gefitinib).
NCT00294034
The purpose of this study is to collect data from pacemakers and determine how this information is used by physicians to care for their patients with pacemakers.
NCT00417924
Vision loss from diabetes is often preventable with timely detection and treatment. Patients with diabetes may not understand the importance of annual dilated eye examinations or recognize the benefits of early detection of diabetic eye disease. The proposed research project compares usual eye care to eye care emphasizing patient education for adult patients with diabetes.
NCT00299897
This is a 28-day, multi-center, placebo-controlled study designed to look at the dose response, efficacy, and safety of SP01A, given as a pill to be swallowed, in the treatment of HIV-infected subjects. Samaritan has discovered that SP01A affects cholesterol binding, which is directly implicated in the pathogenesis of HIV. It has also been established that drugs of this nature exert an anti-HIV effect in-vitro. These data suggest that SP01A has the potential to reduce HIV virus replication. One measurement of an HIV infected person's risk of progressing to AIDS is the number of viral particles of HIV in their blood (called a "viral load"). This study is designed to see if SP01A will lower the amount of HIV in an infected individual's blood. Patients will be assigned by chance to 1 of 4 groups. Neither the patient nor the study doctor or nurse will know which dose of the study drug the patient is taking or if he/she is receiving the placebo (a capsule that looks like the study drug but does not contain any active ingredient). Study drug administration will continue for 28 days. At the end of the 28-day study, the patient will be offered testing of his/her virus for resistance to approved drugs (genotype).
NCT00190606
The study is a comparison of the efficacy and safety of duloxetine and pelvic floor muscle training with that of placebo in patients with moderate to severe stress urinary incontinence
NCT00140309
This study is a placebo-controlled factorial study, randomized to study drug (moxifloxacin vs. ethambutol) and treatment frequency (daily vs. thrice weekly after an initial two weeks of daily therapy) during the first two months of standard treatment (with isoniazid, rifampin, and pyrazinamide) for sputum smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis.
NCT00228592
The purpose of this study is to compare the use of HepeX-B versus HBIg, two anti-viral drugs, in patients who have received liver transplants due to liver failure caused by Hepatitis B infection. Patients will be evaluated over a 6 month to 1.5 year period to evaluate whether or not the drugs prevent the Hepatitis B virus from infecting the new liver.
NCT00361166
The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether a combination of ACP-103 (the study medication) with either haloperidol or risperidone will show antipsychotic efficacy and that it is safe and well tolerated. Further purposes of this study are to determine whether ACP-103, in combination with either haloperidol or risperidone, will enhance their antipsychotic effectiveness, demonstrate effectiveness against the negative symptoms, improve motoric tolerability, and is safe and well tolerated. This is a seven-week study (one week screening and six weeks of study medication) where a total of 400 patients who meet entrance criteria will randomly be assigned to receive one of five groups of study treatments of either low dose haloperidol plus ACP-103, low dose haloperidol plus placebo (a substance similar to a sugar pill), low dose risperidone plus ACP-103, low dose risperidone plus placebo, or high dose risperidone plus placebo. The study will begin with with a three to seven day drug-free period followed by six weeks of a stable daily dosage of study medication. Study subjects will be treated as hospital in-patients during screening and for the first 14 days of the study. Study subjects will be closely monitored throughout the study.
NCT00190827
The study evaluates the effectiveness of duloxetine in reducing urinary incontinence occurrences in women due to physical stress(e.g. stomach pressure on bladder). Incontinence is the inability to control bladder function with leakage of urine.
