NCT01593228

NCT00408408
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of breast cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving chemotherapy and bevacizumab before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. Giving bevacizumab after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It is not yet known which chemotherapy regimen is more effective with or without bevacizumab in treating breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying six different chemotherapy regimens to compare how well they work with or without bevacizumab in treating women with stage I, stage II, or stage IIIA breast cancer that can be removed by surgery.
NCT01369849
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog 1 (Akt) inhibitor MK2206 when given together with bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab and to see how well they work in treating patients with refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Akt inhibitor MK2206 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Giving Akt inhibitor MK2206 with bendamustine hydrochloride and rituximab may be an effective treatment for relapsed chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.
NCT02717065
Characterizing the nature and severity of tinnitus in individuals presents a particular challenge. The nature of the sound (loudness and pitch) is not necessarily indicative of the effect on quality of life. Different methods are used to measure each parameter. Loudness is measured using a technique called "minimum masking," in which the subject is presented with a broadband white noise and asked to adjust the loudness level until they can no longer hear their tinnitus. Severity of tinnitus is commonly characterized using two questionnaires: the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) and the Tinnitus Functional Index (TFI). These questionnaires assess the perceived severity of the tinnitus and the effect on everyday activities and quality of life. A visual analog scale (a scale from 0-10) is used as a general subjective measurement of tinnitus severity. In the first part of this study, we will measure each of these parameters over a series of sessions to establish a baseline variability for each individual. The second part will look at the influence of context-specific visual information on auditory perception. This involves watching silent videos of a person speaking, with and without an additional tone designed to match the subject's tinnitus. The effect of this audiovisual feedback on the subject's perception of tinnitus will be assessed using a subjective rating scale and the minimum masking task.
NCT03130647
Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is a form of neuromodulation that uses a single element transducer to produce highly focused low-intensity acoustic energy that can be used to affect cortical excitability in humans.
NCT01340794
This phase II trial studies how well pazopanib hydrochloride works in treating patients with advanced or progressive malignant pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma. Pazopanib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
NCT00620451
This study was conducted to assess the safety and efficacy of larazotide acetate versus placebo in inducing remission in subjects with active celiac disease.
NCT00492960
This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of multiple doses of larazotide acetate in preventing intestinal permeability changes induced by a 6- week gluten challenge in subjects with celiac disease.
NCT00530894
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the device and delivery systems (transfemoral and transapical) in high risk, symptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis.
NCT01381549
This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety, efficacy (clinical and microbiological), pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of GSK2251052 and to assess whether it would be a suitable antibiotic for the treatment for febrile lower cUTI and pyelonephritis(complicated and uncomplicated). GSK2251052 will be compared to imipenem-cilastatin, which is an antibiotic commonly used to treat serious cUTI infections. GSK2251052 has a spectrum of microbiological activity that includes pathogens responsible for cUTI.
NCT02203032
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of guselkumab (CNTO 1959) in the treatment of participants with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis (scaly skin rash) who had inadequate response to ustekinumab.
NCT02576457
The purpose of this study is to determine whether BMS-936559 is safe and has the desired pharmacologic activity in patients who have severe sepsis.
NCT01395914
The administration of Anamorelin HCl in patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer-Cachexia (NSCLC-C) is expected to increase appetite, lean body mass, weight gain, and muscle strength.
NCT01517984
The study will compare how well transplanted kidneys work and the response of people's immune systems as tacrolimus, a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI), is withdrawn. In addition, this research study will evaluate whether reducing immunosuppression can decrease some of these side effects while still preventing rejection of the kidney.
NCT01021553
To determine if an on demand dosing of 50 mg or 150 mg of GSK557296 demonstrates superior efficacy with respect to duration of intra vaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) during an 8 week study period compared to placebo in men with primary premature ejaculation. An assessment of the safety and tolerability of all doses of GSK557296 will be performed as well as an assessment for change in the Index of Premature Ejaculation (IPE) from baseline and at the end of the 8 weeks of treatment. During the active treatment period study participants will be limited to a maximum of 40 doses of GSK557296, or placebo, spilt as 20 doses for both 4 week intervals.
NCT01355042
Severe sepsis (ie. life-threatening infections) is triggered by harmful microorganisms or their toxins in the blood or tissues. These harmful agents damage the lining of blood vessels which can lead to inflammation, blood clot formation, and vessel obstruction. In Canada, there are approximately 90,000 patients with severe sepsis each year. Of these, 30% to 50% will die. The identification of highly reliable outcome predictors in severe sepsis patients is important for several reasons including: to help describe the severity of sepsis, to classify patients for enrollment in clinical studies, and to monitor a patient's response to treatment and procedures. In the investigators lab, the investigators examined the incremental usefulness of adding multiple biomarkers to clinical scoring systems for predicting ICU mortality in patients with severe sepsis. In a preliminary study of 80 patients with sepsis, the investigators found that high levels of plasma DNA predicted ICU death better than any other clinical or biological factor. In this grant, the investigators propose to confirm these findings in an external group of 400 patients in a blinded fashion. The investigators also plan to study how plasma DNA levels change over time and whether high plasma DNA levels can be used to distinguish sepsis from other critically ill conditions. For this the investigators will compare the investigators septic patients to a cohort of 600 patients in the ICU with other conditions. The investigators believe this research has the potential to significantly improve the management and treatment of septic patients.
