NCT00234039
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving gemcitabine directly into the bladder may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well gemcitabine works in treating patients with recurrent bladder cancer that has progressed despite previous Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG).
NCT00080873
RATIONALE: Traumeel® S (a mouth rinse) may be effective in preventing or decreasing the severity of oral mucositis caused by chemotherapy in young patients who are undergoing stem cell transplantation. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well Traumeel® S works in preventing or treating mucositis in young patients who are receiving chemotherapy with or without total-body irradiation before undergoing stem cell transplantation.
NCT00074555
The purpose of this study is to better understand the causes of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), particularly in African Americans.
NCT01537432
This study is designed to evaluate the proportion of patients achieving reversal of chronic plaque psoriasis at week 4 and 12 following multiple doses of secukinumab administered subcutaneously (sc) compared to placebo. Starting from week 13, all patients will receive multiple doses of secukinumab up to week 52 to study long term effects of secukinumab. Clinical endpoints including biomarker assessments, PASI, IGA and DLQI will be compared to better understand, why secukinumab may be effective in psoriasis patients.
NCT00177489
The primary goal of this study is to test a single multi-component intervention among family caregivers of persons with Alzheimer's disease or related disorders. The overall objectives of study are to 1) identify and reduce modifiable risk factors among diverse family caregivers of patients with Alzheimer's Disease or a related disorder, 2) enhance the quality of care of the care recipients, and 3) enhance the well-being of the caregivers.
NCT02204553
This will be a multi-center, open label, expanded treatment protocol of panobinostat, bortezomib and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma. Panobinostat will be administered at a starting dose of 20mg orally three times a week (every other day) for two weeks on and one week off, with dose adjustments permitted based on observed toxicity. Bortezomib will be administered either intravenously or sub-cutaneously, twice a week on days 1 and 4, two weeks on 1 week off. After 8 cycles of treatment, patients who have achieved stable disease or better by modified EBMT 1998 criteria may continue combination therapy with bortezomib dosing changed to days 1 and 8 of a 21 day cycle for up to 48 weeks of therapy. At the end of the treatment period, (48 weeks) patients with stable disease or better may continue on therapy at the discretion of their investigator until September 2015 or until drug is commercially available, whichever comes first. Patients who have not achieved at least stable disease by 8 cycles must discontinue from study treatment. Dexamethasone will be administered on the day of and the day immediately following bortezomib treatment. Patients will not receive any study treatment during the third week of each cycle. Cycles will be defined as 21 days of treatment. Investigators may not add any other anti-myeloma agents (with the exception of bisphosphonates) while patients remain on study treatment. Patients will remain on study until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or end of the study
NCT00129623
This 2 arm study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral Bonviva 150mg once monthly compared with placebo in post-menopausal women with osteopenia. Patients will be randomized to receive either Bonviva 150mg po monthly, or placebo monthly. The anticipated time on study treatment is 1-2 years, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
NCT01784562
The aim of the study is to assess safety, tolerability and clinical effects of different doses of riociguat in patients with inoperable Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension (CTEPH) and who are not satisfactorily treated and cannot participate in any other CTEPH trial. In the US the study runs as an Expanded Access program under 21 CFR 312.320.
NCT02256475
This is a Phase 1b, open-label, multiple-dose study of the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of NBI-98854 in a total of 36 pediatric subjects with Tourette syndrome (TS). The study will be conducted in approximately 18 male and female children (6 to 11 years of age) and approximately 18 male and female adolescents (12 to 18 years of age). Both age groups will be divided equally into 3 dosing cohorts with 6 subjects each. Ascending doses will be evaluated as part of a staggered-cohort design. Study drug will be administered in each cohort for 14 consecutive days.
NCT00498602
To access the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of ACC-001, an investigational active immunization, in subjects with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.
NCT02401217
The primary objective of this study is to assess the comparative gastrointestinal tolerance of normal term infants to two experimental milk-based powdered formulas compared with a standard milk-based powdered formula.
NCT00719212
The purpose of this study is to obtain an estimate of the objective response rate (ORR) of AMG 479 in patients with recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian epithelial (including fallopian tube and primary peritoneal) carcinoma failing frontline chemotherapy.
NCT00466804
Injury of transplant tissue by a transplant recipient's immune system continues to be the leading cause of graft rejection and recipient death. The purpose of this study is to identify a single test or a combination of noninvasive tests currently used for heart transplant monitoring that correlate to long-term graft survival.
NCT01524068
This is a randomized, multi-center, open-label Phase II clinical trial to determine the efficacy of combined plasma exchange (PEX), rituximab, and conventional corticosteroid administration, in comparison to corticosteroids alone, among patients with acute Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) exacerbations. The investigators central hypothesis is that antibody-mediated autoimmunity can play an important role in IPF exacerbations. The investigators propose to test our central hypothesis by establishing the efficacy of autoantibody removal by plasma exchange (PEX), in conjunction with B-cell depletion by rituximab to deplete immunoglobulins and minimize their further production, among patients with acute IPF exacerbations. The primary goal of this randomized, multi-center, open-label Phase II clinical trial is to determine effects of combined plasma exchange (PEX), rituximab, and conventional corticosteroid administration on selected, relevant immunological parameters, in comparison to effects of steroids alone, among AE-IPF patients. The investigators anticipate the findings of this will lead to larger incremental trial(s) to determine actual clinical efficacy of this treatment. A total of 40 subjects will be enrolled in this multi-center trial from 5 participating medical centers.
NCT01229358
This prospective, multi-institutional randomized clinical trial of a silver ion eluting dressing material compared to standard dry gauze for closed skin incisions after open surgical revascularizations for peripheral vascular occlusive disease. Based on the ability of the silver to lower the bacterial contamination of these vulnerable surgical skin incisions, the investigators hypothesize that immediate application of Acticoat Absorbent® as a post-operative dressing will reduce closed incisional wound complications in patients undergoing lower extremity revascularizations involving infrainguinal skin incisions compared to standard non-silver eluting dressing material.
NCT01314014
