NCT00099320
This study is designed to compare the effects of twice-daily exenatide plus oral antidiabetic (OAD) agents and twice-daily placebo plus OAD with respect to glycemic control, as measured by hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), in patients with type 2 diabetes who experience inadequate glycemic control with OAD alone.
NCT00034294
Approximately 300 patients will be entered into this study taking place throughout the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. This study aims to determine if an investigational drug is safe and effective for treating the symptoms of C. difficile-associated diarrhea and lowering the risk of repeat episodes of diarrhea. The investigational drug will be evaluated in comparison to current standard antibiotic treatment, so all patients will receive active medication. All study-related care is provided including doctor visits, physical exams, laboratory tests and study medication. Total length of participation is approximately 10 weeks.
NCT01766011

Subjects completing Protocol 2993-112 are eligible to enroll.
NCT00039026
This is a multicenter, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled study to assess the effects on glucose control of AC2993 as compared to placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes. Patients will be randomized into one of two AC2993 treatment arms or to placebo treatment and will continue with their required existing diabetes medication (sulfonylurea) throughout the study.
NCT01545440
This randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study will assess the efficacy and safety of lebrikizumab in patients with asthma whose disease remains uncontrolled despite daily therapy with an inhaled corticosteroid and a second controller medication. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to receive double-blind treatment with subcutaneous lebrikizumab ("highest", "middle", "lowest" dose) or placebo every 4 weeks for 52 weeks, in addition to their standard-of-care therapy. This will be followed by a 52-week double-blind active treatment extension. The anticipated time on study treatment is up to 104 weeks. There will be a safety follow-up of 24 weeks after the last dose of study drug for all patients.
NCT00005834
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Thalidomide may stop the growth of tumor cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known if combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without thalidomide for multiple myeloma. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy with or without thalidomide in treating patients who have refractory multiple myeloma.
NCT00106184
Rituximab is a man-made antibody used to treat certain types of cancer. This study will determine whether rituximab is an effective treatment for adult and pediatric patients with dermatomyositis or polymyositis. Study hypotheses: 1) The time to improvement in Group A patients (receiving rituximab first) will occur significantly earlier than in Group B patients (receiving rituximab later). 2) The proportion of patients improved at Week 8 of the treatment phase will be significantly greater in Group A than in Group B.
NCT00529503
This is a randomized trial to estimate the activity of R-ICE plus SGN-40 vs. R-ICE plus placebo in patients with DLBCL. The study will assess safety and tolerability and will measure any additional clinical benefit observed in patients receiving SGN-40.
NCT00027508
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ecteinascidin 743 in treating patients who have malignant mesothelioma that cannot be removed by surgery.
NCT00043706
Systemic Sclerosis (also known as Scleroderma) is a chronic, autoimmune disease of the connective tissue generally classified as one of the rheumatic diseases. Systemic Sclerosis causes fibrosis (scar tissue) to be formed in the skin and internal organs. The fibrosis eventually causes the involved skin to harden, limiting mobility, and can also damage other organs. Excess Transforming Growth Factor Beta-1 (TGF-beta1) activity may result in the abnormal fibrosis characteristic of Systemic Sclerosis. An antibody against TGF-beta1 may modify pathologic processes characterized by inappropriate fibrosis. Genzyme Corporation is currently investigating a human monoclonal antibody (CAT-192) that neutralizes active TGF-beta1. This study is being conducted in the U.S. and Europe to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of repeated treatments with CAT-192 in patients with early stage diffuse Systemic Sclerosis.
NCT00655460
The Purpose of this study is to: 1. Refine and validate a computerized bedside decision support tool blood glucose management in critically ill adult and pediatric ICU patients. 2. Monitor how often low blood sugar levels occur during use of the bedside tool. 3. Determine how the computerized tool effects the workload of the ICU nurses.
NCT01803867
This is a Phase I, multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of single intravenous (IV) administrations of rHIgM22 in patients with all clinical presentations of MS.
NCT00977665
To test the clinical effect of rasagiline on subjects with MSA of the parkinsonian subtype.
NCT01445899
This is a two-part study. The first part (Stratum I) is an open-label, dose escalation, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic study, where active study drug (PF-04523655) will be given to all patients who participate. Stratum I will determine the maximum tolerated dose and any dose-limiting toxicities. The second part (Stratum II) is a prospectively randomized, multi-center, double-masked, dose ranging study evaluating the efficacy and safety of PF-04523655 alone and in combination with ranibizumab versus ranibizumab alone in patients with DME.
NCT00150293
To determine long-term safety and efficacy of pregabalin in patients with partial seizures.
NCT01641016
The overall aim of the BREATHER trial is to evaluate the role of Short-Cycle Therapy (SCT) in the management of HIV-infected young people who have responded well to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and to determine whether young people with chronic HIV infection undergoing Short-Cycle Therapy of five days on ART and two days off maintain the same level of viral load suppression as those on continuous therapy, over 48 weeks. To assess the advantages and disadvantages of the strategy, the incidence of toxicities, immunological control, resistance mutations, acceptability, quality of life and adherence to the randomised strategy will also be compared. Importantly, because of insufficient data on short-term viral load rebound after stopping ART in this population, the trial will incorporate an initial pilot phase in selected centres, to assess the safety of the SCT strategy by evaluating detailed HIV-1 RNA profiles of participants on the SCT strategy.
NCT02255058
It was decided to develop a comprehensive disability score specifically designed for patients receiving prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV); the collection of information included in the score should not impose any further intervention beyond what is routinely performed. So a new questionnaire was created (called the Multi-INdependency Dimensions (MIND) that included 3 sections (nurse, physiotherapist and medical doctor), 11 categories and 18 items. Each question was adapted to have a 5 item Likert scale. The primary objective of the study will be to evaluate the psychometric performance of the MIND score in terms of validity, reliability and sensitivity to change over time. The secondary objective will be to assess the inclusion of biological markers on the overall performance of the MIND score
