NCT01714596
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of treatment of post-op wound infection in long bones after fracture fixation or joint fusion and either: (Group 1) operative debridement and PO antibiotic treatment for 6 weeks; or (Group 2) operative debridement and IV antibiotics for 6 weeks. Primary Hypothesis 1: The rate of study injury related surgical interventions by one year in Group 1 will be non-inferior to the rate in Group 2. Secondary Hypothesis 1: The rate of treatment failure by one year in Group 1 will be non-inferior to the rate in Group 2. Treatment failure is defined as wound problems that require surgery \>2 weeks after initial debridement, infection recurrence, infection with a new pathogen, joint erosion, implant failure, medical problems related to the treatment administration which necessitates a switch from one arm to the other. Secondary Hypothesis 2: The rate of re-hospitalization for complications, infection, non-union and amputation by one year in Group 1 will be non-inferior to the rate in Group 2. Secondary Hypothesis 3: Following discharge for treatment of infection, per patient treatment costs at 1 year will be lower in Group 1 than in Group 2. Secondary Hypothesis 4: Adherence in Group 1 will be non-inferior to adherence in Group 2. Secondary Hypothesis 5: Patient satisfaction with treatment in Group 1 will be non-inferior to adherence in Group 2. Specific Aim 2: To build and validate a risk prediction model for failure of treatment of early post-op wound infections after fixation of fractures and joint fusions.
NCT00412113
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether an aggressive multi-risk factor management strategy (Caduet plus therapeutic lifestyle changes (TLC) regimen) will result in greater percentage of patients achieving blood pressure and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) goals compared with a Joint National Committee 7/ National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (JNC 7/NCEP ATP III) guideline-based approach (Norvasc plus TLC regimen) after 6 weeks of treatment in primary prevention subjects with hypertension and additional risk factors, including dyslipidemia.
NCT03225859
Veterans who complete trauma-focused therapies (TFTs) report improvements in posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms, quality of life, and social and role functioning. However, many also report uncertainty regarding their ability to maintain and build upon progress made during TFTs following the end of treatment. Veterans who recently completed a course of TFT believe the likelihood of their ongoing success would be bolstered by mental health services that support additional practice and reinforcement of skills learned in TFT. Currently no evidence-based approach for post-TFT care exists; however, Veterans' reported treatment needs are well-suited to a therapist-assisted self-management approach. The objective of this project is to complete Stage 1 (intervention refinement and piloting) of the Stage Model of Treatment Development for a post-TFT therapist-assisted self-management program designed to help Veterans maintain or build upon gains made in TFT, increase self-efficacy for managing their PTSD symptoms, and enhance community engagement. The aims of the project are to: 1) Refine a self-management treatment protocol through eliciting feedback from experienced TFT providers on a draft of the self-management program, 2) Conduct a pilot open trial to assess the acceptability and feasibility of the self-management program, and 3) Explore the effects of the program on Veterans' confidence in managing their PTSD and Veterans' functioning, quality of life, community engagement, and mental health symptoms.
NCT02593006
STOP-JIA is a PCORI funded prospective observational study which compared the clinical effectiveness and impact on patient reported outcomes of 3 Childhood Arthritis \& Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) consensus derived treatment strategies (CTPs) in new-onset polyarticular JIA (pJIA) patients to answer the critical question of when is the best time to begin biologic medications to achieve the optimal clinical and patient reported outcomes. Because the CARRA Registry will be used for data collection, all patients will be enrolled in the CARRA Registry. The standard of care treatments are chosen by the treating physician and patient/caregiver and are not randomized.
NCT03903510
This study is a randomized control trial of Virtual Reality during cast removal procedures at a pediatric tertiary care center.
NCT03444116
Excessive anteversion is commonly observed in the cerebral palsy (CP) population. This can be treated by an orthopedic surgery, called femoral derotation osteotomy (FDO), to de-rotate the femur. It is a vital aspect of patient care to understand if the effects of an FDO are maintained long-term. The results of this study will have direct clinical impact by equipping providers with the necessary information to counsel families by providing families the information needed to make the most informed decision possible about this aspect of their child's healthcare.
NCT03727087
The primary objective of this study is to obtain de-identified, clinically characterized, whole blood specimens to evaluate biomarkers associated with cancer for diagnostic assay development.
NCT00318591
The purpose of this study is to investigate the frequency of urinary tract infections with symptoms in spinal cord injured patients requiring intermittent catheterization for emptying the bladder. Patients will use either a coated catheter or an uncoated catheter with gel.
NCT00863772
Tanezumab reduces pain of osteoarthritis without affecting how nerve impulses are transmitted in sensory nerves.
NCT02411786
The purpose of this study is to determine if a vaccine called pTVG-AR can enhance the participant's immune response against prostate cancer.
NCT00413010
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of pregabalin as compared to placebo in the treatment of patients with general anxiety disorder (GAD). Efficacy will be measured by the improvement in the total Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) scores from baseline observed following 8 weeks of double-blind treatment or at earlier termination during the double-blind treatment phase and analyzed using a mixed linear model for repeated measures.
NCT01297959
This study is intended to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability of topical application of E-101 Solution directly into the surgical incisional wound in the prevention of infection of superficial and deep surgical incisional wounds. E-101 Solution is an enzyme-based antiseptic that is being developed for direct application to a surgical incision.
NCT01272284
An international, multi-center, single arm, prospective clinical study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of the Coloplast Altis single incision sling system for females with stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
NCT02369874
This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center, global, Phase III study to determine the efficacy and safety of MEDI4736 + tremelimumab combination therapy and MEDI4736 monotherapy versus SoC therapy in the target patient population.
NCT02433158
This is an open label extension study in subjects with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) who have completed the double blind Phase 3 study (B5201002).
NCT02267876
The purpose of the study is to assess the cumulative disease detection of greater than or equal to Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 (CIN2) and greater than or equal to Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 3 (CIN3) in the subjects over 3 years using the subject's HPV status and cytology status from the BDS-USHPV baseline results
NCT00654940
The purpose of this study is to assess whether a cross-over type study design in post-traumatic neuropathic patients can be used to assess the activity of potential analgesic agents
NCT00292188

NCT00368745
GAD subjects maintained on a stable dose of alprazolam for at least four weeks who meet eligibility criteria will be randomized to receive pregabalin vs matching placebo while simultaneously tapering off of alprazolam over 6 weeks. Subjects return weekly for assessment of safety/tolerability of pregabalin vs placebo as well as for assessment of anxiety and benzodiazepine withdrawal symptoms. Subjects successfully able to discontinue alprazolam, will continue 6 weeks of treatment with pregabalin vs placebo (free of benzodiazepine use). The efficacy and safety of pregabalin vs placebo for anxiety symptoms and ability to discontinue/remain free of alprazolam will be compared among pregabalin and placebo treated groups. Hypothesis is that a greater proportion of subjects will be successful in discontinuing and remaining free from benzodiazepines who were treated with pregabalin as compared to subjects treated with placebo.
