NCT00042081
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of graft pretreatment with CGT003 (E2F Duplex Decoy), as compared to placebo, on the incidence of patients experiencing vein graft failure after coronary artery bypass surgery.
NCT00000146
To assess the beneficial and adverse effects of corticosteroid treatment for optic neuritis. To determine the natural history of vision in patients who suffer optic neuritis. To identify risk factors for the development of multiple sclerosis in patients with optic neuritis.
NCT00000126
To follow all patients enrolled in the original Ischemic Optic Neuropathy Decompression Trial (IONDT) to determine (1) the incidence of non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) in the second eye, (2) changes in visual acuity over time in both the study and second eye, and (3) other aspects of the natural history of NAION.
NCT00054873
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tezacitabine when given alone or in combination with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) to subjects who have advanced esophageal or gastric adenocarcinoma.
NCT00215215
To compare outcomes over 12 months of treatment with antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) alone or vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) therapy plus AEDs in patients who have partial seizures refractory to at least two, but not more than five, AEDs.
NCT00154141
A comparison of a fibrin sealant versus manual compression in stopping surgical bleeding during vascular procedures.
NCT00042679
The purposes of this study are to determine the following: Whether LY900003 plus gemcitabine and carboplatin can make your tumor smaller or disappear, and for how long. If treatment with LY900003 plus gemcitabine and carboplatin can help you live longer. The safety of LY900003 plus gemcitabine and carboplatin and any side effects that might be associated with the combination of these three drugs. How LY900003 is distributed and broken down by your body when it is given with carboplatin and gemcitabine. Whether LY900003 affects the way gemcitabine and carboplatin are distributed and broken down by your body.
NCT00270972
This study was designed to confirm the clinical benefits and safety of OrCel in the treatment of venous ulcers. OrCel and standard care are compared to standard care alone. Standard care consists of currently accepted compression therapy. Patients are treated for 12 weeks. Patients with healed ulcers are followed for an additional 12 weeks to assess durability of the healed wound.
NCT00064571
Unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) is caused by injury to the nerve to the affected vocal fold. The injury to the vocal fold makes the affected person's voice sound "breathy". Voice therapy is usually tried first, and, if unsuccessful, surgical treatment is considered. The standard surgical treatment is called vocal fold medialization and aims to bring the injured cord to the midline. An alternative surgical treatment, vocal fold reinnervation, aims to bring a new nerve supply to the injured vocal fold. The reinnervation operation, which has some potential advantages over the medialization operation also requires several months for final results to be gained. The goal of this multicenter, randomized clinical trial is to see which of the two surgical treatments produces a better outcome. In order to participate in this study patients with UVFP must meet all entry criteria and must be released from voice therapy by a speech-language pathologist. Information collected for the study (pre-surgery, and at 6 and 12 months after surgery) includes voice recordings, movies made of vocal fold function, airflow and pressure measurements of the voicebox, and an outcomes questionnaire.
NCT00315887
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the buprenorphine transdermal system (5, 10, and 20 mg) in comparison to placebo transdermal system and hydrocodone/acetaminophen in subjects with chronic back pain. The double-blind treatment intervention duration is 56 days during which time supplemental analgesic medication (ibuprofen) will be provided to all subjects in addition to study drug.
NCT00230867
Currently approved drugs for the treatment of herpes labialis (cold sores) exhibit low levels of efficacy due to the limited ability of the drugs to penetrate the skin to the site where the herpes virus is replicating. Iontophoresis uses electric current to enhance the delivery of drugs through the skin. This trial is testing a new iontophoretic device for the delivery of acyclovir cream to treat cold sores.
NCT00245284
Evaluation of skin cholesterol for cardiovascular risk assessment in asymptomatic individuals at low, intermediate, or high risk based on Framingham Global Risk estimates. Carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), a surrogate marker for atherosclerotic burden, that independently predicts the occurrence of heart attack and stroke, will be the "gold standard" comparator. Hypothesis: Skin cholesterol, as measured by two non-invasive tests, correlates with CAD, as measured by CIMT in this population.
NCT00045864
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of combination therapy with Proleukin and Rituxan on patients with intermediate-and high- grade Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
NCT00251537
This is a pilot study to assess the safety and antiretroviral activity of a naturally occuring substance known as Leukotriene B4(LTB4). The aim of the study is to determine the effect of LTB4 on viral load during a period of 6 weeks, 4 weeks of active treatment and 2 additional weeks after the end of active treatment for safety follow-up. 40 patients in seven clinics in Canada will be randomized into three treatment arms, either of two doses of LTB4 or placebo. Study drug is administered intravenously once daily. LTB4 can activate and stimulate various white blood cells and by the activation release natural substances in the body and this process is an important part of the body's defense against infections.
NCT00082472
This study is intended to show whether inhaled chemotherapy can be added to a standard IV chemotherapy regime, to investigate the additional toxicities and to show initial evidence of efficacy of the combination.
NCT00034710
The purpose of this study is to gain initial information on the tolerability of high-dose capsaicin patches in patients with Painful Postherpetic Neuralgia. The study will also collect preliminary information on safety and efficacy.
NCT00100724
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of rPA102 vaccine given intramuscularly at 0 and 4 weeks over 2 dose ranges and 4 adjuvant levels.
NCT00017758
The purpose of this study is to find out whether certain anti-HIV drugs (efavirenz \[EFV\] and nelfinavir \[NFV\]) affect the amount of certain fat-lowering drugs (atorvastatin, pravastatin, and simvastatin) in the blood. Protease inhibitors (PIs), a type of anti-HIV drug, are known to cause increased lipids (fats) in the blood of HIV-infected patients. EFV also is known to increase blood fats. HIV-infected patients who take PIs and/or EFV may need to take fat-lowering drugs to correct this problem. So it is important to look at possible drug interactions when these drugs are taken together. This study will see if taking EFV or NFV, a protease inhibitor, affects the blood level of simvastatin, atorvastatin, or pravastatin (all fat-lowering drugs). To obtain results more quickly, the study population will be healthy HIV-negative volunteers.
NCT00034502
This is a non-randomized study in patients who have received prior 5-FU therapy for colorectal cancer. The objective of this trial is to establish a maximum tolerated dose of ALIMTA and irinotecan given in combination as well as to assess the safety and efficacy of this combination for patients with locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer. ALIMTA and irinotecan will be given every 21 days.
NCT00073502
Multi-center, open-label, non-randomized Phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of OSI-7904L in gastric and GEJ cancers. Those patients who do not derive clinical benefit after two cycles may be switched to a commonly used combination regimen.
