NCT00267280

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.
NCT00073840
The primary objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy of levalbuterol 90 ug (2 actuations, 45 ug each) versus placebo (2 actuations) in the treatment and prevention of bronchoconstriction in adolescent and adult subjects with asthma, with all treatments administered 4 times a day (QID).
NCT00667797
An analysis of the costs and outcomes associated with hospitalization and treatment of Levalbuterol versus Racemic Albuterol in subjects with Asthma and COPD.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
NCT00303056
The primary objective is to compare the overall treatment effect on pain relief between icatibant and placebo. The secondary objectives are to assess the efficacy of icatibant in term of onset, extent and duration of pain relief relative to triamcinolone, to evaluate the safety of icatibant, to evaluate overall conditions of daily life after treatment with icatibant, to assess systemic exposure of icatibant following intra-articular injection.
NCT00685126
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of two dose levels of levalbuterol compared with one dose level of racemic albuterol in pediatric subjects aged birth to 48 months old.
NCT00352144
To evaluate the long-term efficacy of eszopiclone administered for up to 6 months in subjects with primary insomnia on subjective sleep measures, compared to placebo.
NCT00074009
RATIONALE: Bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of bortezomib in treating patients who have unresectable or metastatic gastric cancer or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
NCT00231985
This study will compare the efficacy of supportive therapy versus habit-reversal therapy for the treatment of Tourette syndrome and chronic tic disorder.
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.
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)
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.
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.
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.
