NCT00103649
The purpose of this study is to assess xaliproden's potential capacity of slowing the deterioration of cognitive and global functions in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The patients participating in this study will take orally once daily xaliproden or placebo (inactive substance pill).
NCT00001117
This study evaluates patients infected with both HIV and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) who are receiving anti-HIV drugs. The purpose of this study is to learn more about HCV infection in patients whose HIV blood level decreases to less than 500 copies/ml.
NCT00537628
Primary Objectives 1. Mid Region pro Adrenomedullin (MR-proADM) is superior to BNP for the prognosis of heart failure (HF) patients and adds incremental value in predicting outcomes for patients presenting to the Emergency Department (ED) with shortness of breath. 2. Mid Region pro A-Type Natriuretic Peptide (MR-proANP) is non-inferior to BNP for the diagnosis of HF in patients presenting to the ED with shortness of breath.
NCT00229086
Evaluation of the Gatekeeper System in the treatment of patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) who already have been treated under study protocols Endo 2000-03 and Endo 2000-04
NCT00003647
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Injecting allovectin-7 into a person's melanoma cells may make the body build an immune response that will kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of dacarbazine with or without immunotherapy in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV melanoma.
NCT00259753
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of three doses of Cand5. Cand5, a small interfering RNA molecule that selectively silences the mRNA encoding for VEGF.
NCT00380276
Open-label treatment with MPC-7869 for participants in a previous randomized study.
NCT00584714
The purpose of this study is to collect longer term follow-up information concerning health and survival on selected patients who received PB127 for injectable suspension in the pivotal trial (127-014).
NCT00322270
To evaluate the safety profile of alfimeprase as assessed by monitoring of adverse events, serious adverse events and major bleeding events for up to 120 minutes following the instillation of study drug to an occluded central venous access device.
NCT00129844
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of MGd in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) when given alone, and to evaluate the difference between two dosing regimens.
NCT00575822
The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of endoscopic full-thickness plication (Plicator; NDO Surgical, Inc., Mansfield, MA) for the treatment of GERD in comparison to a sham procedure. Patients with symptomatic GERD requiring maintenance proton pump inhibitor therapy were entered into a randomized, single-blind, prospective, multicenter trial. Seventy-eight patients were randomly assigned to undergo endoscopic full-thickness restructuring of the gastric cardia with transmural suture. Eighty-one patients underwent a sham procedure. Group assignments were revealed following the 3-month evaluation. The primary endpoint was ≥ 50% improvement in GERD-HRQL score. Secondary endpoints included medication use and esophageal acid exposure. Patients achieving ≥ 50% improvement in GERD-HRQL score at 3-months versus baseline off-meds were considered responsive to their assigned procedure. Patients who failed to reach this level of improvement at 3-months were considered non-responders. Analysis of these dichotomized variables (responder/non-responder) was done using Fisher's exact test comparing the proportion of responders between the active and sham groups. Intent-to-treat analysis was also performed. The null hypothesis was that the proportion of responders was the same in both the active and sham groups. Testing was done at the 5% level of significance (alpha=0.05).
NCT00298350
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the non-inferiority of ritonavir-boosted GS-9137 relative to a ritonavir-boosted Comparator Protease Inhibitor when used as part of combination antiretroviral regimens in subjects who have failed, or are failing, protease inhibitor therapy.
NCT00039156
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of BAY 59-8862 in treating patients who have refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
NCT00141193
This study is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center trial to compare the efficacy and safety of celecoxib 400mg QD versus placebo in reducing the occurrence of new colorectal adenomas post-polypectomy at Month 13 (Year 1) and Month 37 (Year 3) of study drug administration.
NCT00281294
To evaluate the efficacy of fontolizumab in subjects with active rheumatoid arthritis as determined by a 50% improvement of an American College of Rheumatology criteria (ACR50) response at Week 14 (Stage A of study).
NCT00001109
The purpose of this study is to learn more about some of the immune cells in the blood (CD4 cells, for example) of healthy children in order to better understand the differences in the blood cells of children infected with HIV. Because children's bodies are still developing, their cells are different from those of adults, and their bodies respond differently to infections such as HIV. In order to understand how immune cells grow and mature so that they can fight HIV, it is important to see how these cells behave in normal children.
NCT00650455
The objectives of the study were to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of valdecoxib 10 mg once daily (QD) or naproxen 500 mg twice daily (BID) versus placebo, and to assess the efficacy of valdecoxib 10 mg QD versus naproxen 500 mg BID, in treating the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a severe Rheumatoid Arthritis population.
NCT00595673
This trial is to compare PB127 echocardiography to other heart imaging studies.
NCT00006643
The purpose of this study is to find if the Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) scan is as effective as a liver biopsy (using a special needle to remove tissue from the liver) in examining liver damage in patients with HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV). A standard way to examine the liver for disease has been to perform a liver biopsy. The SPECT scan, which takes a picture of the liver, has been found to be effective in determining liver damage but studies need to be done in patients with hepatitis. This study will compare the effectiveness of the liver biopsy and SPECT scan in determining liver disease in patients with HIV and HCV. The SPECT scan might be a good replacement for the liver biopsy if it is found to be as good as or better than liver biopsies.
NCT00199550
This study will prospectively evaluate a new electrosurgical procedure (bipolar transurethral prostatectomy) in men with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia.
