NCT00971334
The purpose of this study is to collect samples for the purpose of developing a prenatal aneuploid test using circulating cell free fetal (ccff) nucleic acid from blood samples from pregnant women who have a high-risk pregnancy undergoing invasive prenatal diagnosis by chorionic villus sampling (CVS) and/or genetic amniocentesis. The results of the ccff aneuploid test will be compared to the chromosomal analysis obtained via CVS or amniocentesis.
NCT00034957
The primary goal of the study is to evaluate an investigational drug's effectiveness as a treatment for Non small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
NCT01533896
Parents should receive anticipatory guidance about obesity prevention as part of the routine well child visit. Educational resources are needed to help physicians routinely provide these important anticipatory guidance messages. In this study, consecutive parents will be exposed to routine anticipatory guidance messages before the well child visit with the physician. After the clinic visit, parents will be invited to participate in a research study to determine if they plan any changes at home. The key research question of this study is: Can a brief multimedia intervention help parents develop plans to help their children have a healthy weight?
NCT00090753
This study assessed the long-term efficacy, safety, and tolerability of intravenous (iv) or subcutaneous (sc) methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta in chronic kidney disease patients with renal anemia. Eligible patients were those who were receiving stable maintenance therapy with methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta or erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESAs) in Phase II or III clinical studies. They continued to receive methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta or comparator ESAs at the same weekly dose and by the same route of administration (sc or iv) as in the qualifying studies.
NCT00561366
Arimoclomol is a small molecule that upregulates "molecular chaperones" in cells under stress. Arimoclomol extends survival by five weeks when given both pre-symptomatically and at disease onset in a mutant superoxide dismutase (SOD1) transgenic mouse model of ALS. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated to have neuroprotective and neuroregenerative effects in other rat models of nerve damage. Molecular chaperone proteins are critical in the cellular response to stress and protein misfolding. Recent data suggest that the SOD1 mutation responsible for ALS in some patients with familial disease reduces the availability of a variety of molecular chaperones, and thus weakens their ability to respond to cellular stress. Protein misfolding and consequent aggregation may play a role in the pathogenesis of both the familial and sporadic forms of ALS. Therapeutic agents such as arimoclomol that improve cellular chaperone response to protein misfolding may be helpful in ALS.
NCT00667173
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of IDP-115 in treating patients with rosacea.
NCT00389090
This is an open-label, multicenter, phase II trial, assessing the antitumor activity, and safety of temozolomide in combination with O6-BG in patients with temozolomide-resistant anaplastic glioma.
NCT00267280
The Torcetrapib project was terminated on December 2, 2006 due to safety findings. Cholesterol levels will be measured over six weeks in subjects being treated with two different kinds of cholesterol medications to see how the different treatments compare to one another.
NCT00145431
The Torcetrapib project was terminated on December 2, 2006 due to safety findings. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the lipid drug torcetrapib/atorvastatin in subjects with a rare genetically known disorder of high cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
NCT00208156
Corlux (mifepristone) is a new medication that modulates the body's use of a hormone called cortisol. Under normal conditions, cortisol and other hormones are created by the body in response to physical and emotional stress, triggering a healthy stress response. People who suffer from psychotic major depression may have unusually high levels of cortisol circulating within them or abnormal patterns of cortisol levels, overloading the stress response mechanism and causing symptoms of psychosis such as delusional thoughts or hallucinations. If Corlux can keep the body's cortisol receptors from being overloaded, the stress response system may return to normal function, which may result in improvement of symptoms. The purpose of this study is to allow patients who have already participated in an earlier 8 week study of Corlux versus placebo (an inactive pill) to receive additional courses of treatment with Corlux periodically if a psychotic episode should reappear during a period of one year.
NCT00711009
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of the lopinavir/ritonavir tablet when administered in combination with reverse transcriptase inhibitors to lopinavir/ritonavir tablets when administered in combination with a human immunodeficiency virus type 1 ( HIV-1) integrase inhibitor in antiretroviral naive HIV-1 infected subjects.
NCT00134238
The Torcetrapib project was terminated on December 2, 2006 due to safety findings. To look at ultrasound images taken in the carotid arteries and to look at various lipids in the blood of people with mixed hyperlipidemia
NCT00991393
The purpose of this research study is to shorten the treatment time course for patients who are scheduled for surgery to have a sinus lift and dental implant(s) placed into the upper front part of their mouth, and need to have more bone in their jaws and a thicker sinus floor to support the implant.
NCT01180426
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety profile of tosedostat in elderly patients suffering from refractory or relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
NCT00244244
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of arimoclomol in ALS patients following 90 days of dosing. In addition, the amount of arimoclomol in blood and cerebrospinal fluid will be measured.
NCT00792129
This study is being undertaken to compare the clinical outcomes of patients that have unilateral posterolateral lumbar interbody fusion using a traditional open approach versus the MiLIF procedure based on the MiCOR Precision Bone Allograft, specialized Atavi instrumentation, and minimally invasive visualization capabilities.
NCT00323661
The purpose of this study is to compare the influence of accelerometer-based rate adaptation and Closed Loop Stimulation on cognitive performance and quality of life in pacemaker patients.
NCT00620737
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety profile and the treatment effect of Isolagen TherapyTM and placebo when administered to stable restrictive burn scars of an affected joint area.
NCT00231985
This study will compare the efficacy of supportive therapy versus habit-reversal therapy for the treatment of Tourette syndrome and chronic tic disorder.
NCT01528839
There is growing evidence that thyroid axis dysfunction may contribute to the pathophysiology of bipolar illness. Open-label studies have consistently demonstrated that the behavioral expression of bipolar disorder can be modified by a change in thyroid status, and in many instances the course of illness is improved through the use of adjunct thyroid hormone treatment. Recent evidence emerged from acute intervention studies that add-on treatment with supraphysiological doses of levothyroxine is an effective augmenting agent in patients with a major depressive episode. The primary goal of this international multicenter trial (5 sites) is to determine in a 13-week, randomized, placebo-controlled design (1 week single-blind placebo run-in, 6 week double-blind, 6 week open-label) the efficacy and safety of add-on treatment with levothyroxine (300 mcg/d) in combination with mood stabilizer/antidepressant therapy in the treatment of patients with bipolar depression. The main hypotheses is: treatment with levothyroxine will result in a significantly greater mean reduction of HRSD total score and in a higher number of responders and remitters compared to placebo treatment. This proposal will build on our pilot data and provide evidence for the use of levothyroxine as an effective augmentation strategy in the treatment of bipolar depression.
