NCT03661983
To evaluate the long-term efficacy of oral aripiprazole in pediatric participants for the treatment of Tourette's Disorder (TD).
NCT01801007
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the MicroVention Flow Redirection Intraluminal Device (FRED) system when used in the treatment of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms.
NCT02642913
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of enzalutamide with or without sorafenib at different doses. Enzalutamide is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer. Enzalutamide blocks a protein called the androgen receptor. Experiments on liver cancer cells and animal models show that blocking the androgen receptor causes liver cancer to stop growing. Enzalutamide has not been approved to treat liver cancer. The investigators want to see if enzalutamide is safe for patients with liver cancer who have had their tumors grow on sorafenib. The investigators also want to see how safe and effective sorafenib and enzalutamide are for liver cancer patients that have never been treated with sorafenib. This is the first time enzalutamide and sorafenib are being used together. This treatment may not help treat the participant's cancer.
NCT00796445
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the benefit of the immunotherapeutic product GSK 2132231A in preventing disease relapse when given to melanoma patients, after surgical removal of their tumor. This Protocol Posting has been updated following Amendments 1 of the Protocol, March 2010. The impacted sections are outcome measures and entry criteria.
NCT03307395
Middle meningeal artery (MMA) embolization via a minimally invasive endovascular approach has been attempted with the goal of eliminating the arterial supply to the vascularized membrane. The investigators have recently presented the first known case series of MMA embolization as upfront treatment for cSDH in lieu of surgical evacuation (publication pending). Five patients underwent successful embolization of the MMA with subsequent reduction in size or complete resolution of cSDH with no peri-procedural complications. The purpose of this study will be to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MMA embolization compared to traditional surgical management for symptomatic, chronic, and medically refractory SDH. MMA embolization is an established procedure used routinely for treatment of tumors or vascular malformations; this study investigates the use of an established procedure for a new disease. The investigators hypothesize that MMA embolization will afford a particularly fragile patient population an alternative to invasive and morbid neurosurgical intervention.
NCT01180816
The high-grade malignant brain tumors, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and anaplastic astrocytoma (AA), comprise the majority of all primary brain tumors in adults. This group of tumors also exhibits the most aggressive behavior, resulting in median overall survival durations of only 9-12 months for GBM, and 3-4 years for AA. Initial therapy has consisted of surgical resection, external beam radiation or both. More recently, a Phase 3 clinical published by Stupp et al in 2005 showed a benefit for using radiotherapy plus concomitant and adjuvant Temozolomide. Still, all patients experience a recurrence after first-line therapy, so improvements in both first-line and salvage therapy are critical to enhancing quality-of-life and prolonging survival. It is unknown if currently used intravenous (IV) therapies even cross the blood brain barrier (BBB). Superselective Intra-arterial Cerebral Infusion (SIACI) is a technique that can effectively increase the concentration of drug delivered to the brain while sparing the body of systemic side effects. One currently used drug called Temozolomide (Temodar) has been shown to be active in human brain tumors but its actual central nervous system (CNS) penetration is unknown. This phase I clinical research trial will test the hypothesis that following the standard 42 day Temozolomide/radiotherapy regimen, Temozolomide can be safely used by direct intracranial superselective intra-arterial cerebral infusion (SIACI) up to a dose of 250mg/m2, followed by the standard maintenance cycle of temozolomide to ultimately enhance survival of patients with newly diagnosed GBM/AA. The investigators will determine the toxicity profile and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SIACI Temozolomide. The investigators expect that this project will provide important information regarding the utility of SIACI Temozolomide therapy for malignant gliomas, and may alter the way these drugs are delivered to our patients in the near future.
NCT00346216
To answer the question of overall benefit: risk of celecoxib when compared to two most commonly prescribe traditional (non-selective) nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the treatment of arthritis pain. For this purpose, patients with osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis with or at risk of developing cardiovascular disease will be recruited. The cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and renal safety and symptomatic benefit in each treatment group will be assessed accordingly.
NCT02680535
To determine the efficacy of using MRI/US fusion imaging technology to direct focal ablation of prostate tissue using nanoparticle-directed laser irradiation.
NCT01450540
Although positive airway pressure (PAP) is a highly effective treatment for sleep apnea, adherence to therapy remains an obstacle. Automated Graduated CPAP (AGPAP), also know as EZ-start, is an extended duration ramp, where the patient receives pressure below their prescription during an acclimation phase. The algorithm gradually increases pressure to therapy level based on usage. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the AGPAP acclimation period and its impact on short term adherence.
NCT01801124
Phase 4 study evaluating the effectiveness of EXPAREL when infiltrated into the the Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP).
NCT00084682
This phase II trial is studying how well FR901228 works in treating patients with unresectable recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma (cancer) of the head and neck. Drugs used in chemotherapy such as FR901228 work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
NCT02939131
IMPAACT 2002 is a prospective, multi-site, two-arm, cluster-randomized study to evaluate whether a health and wellness Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Medication Management (COMB-R) intervention for depression demonstrates improved depression and medical outcomes for HIV-infected youth in the United States (US) compared to enhanced standard care (ESC).
NCT01110863
By ingesting a non-radioactive and non-toxic compound "heavy water" for 6 weeks, the DNA of newly developed cells in the body of subjects with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia can be labeled and followed by performing routine blood draws at specified time intervals. By using mass spectrometric analysis we can measure how quickly new B-CLL cells are generated in the bone marrow and how quickly they leave the blood, a measure of cell turnover. This will help us to better understand the unique characteristics of this disease process.
NCT01338805
This long-term extension study will assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of BGG492 as adjunctive treatment in patients with partial onset seizures.
NCT00614744
This study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical trial to evaluate whether induced whole-body hypothermia initiated between 6-24 hours of age and continued for 96 hours in infants ≥ 36 weeks gestational age with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy will reduce the incidence of death or disability at 18-22 months of age. The study will enroll 168 infants with signs of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy at 16 NICHD Neonatal Research Network sites, and randomly assign them to either receive hypothermia or participate in a non-cooled control group.
NCT01862536
The functional, social, and economic burden of chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) on the healthcare system is extraordinary. COPD is the fourth leading cause of death in the United States, and some estimates attribute up to $33.2 billion in health care costs to COPD-associated morbidity and mortality annually. The burden of COPD to the VA Healthcare system parallels these findings. According to the VA HSR\&D Health Economics Resource Center, COPD ranks 5th among the 40 most common chronic clinical conditions in the U.S. Veteran patient population, is responsible for \>14,000 VA hospital admission annually, and increases by $1,051/patient the total annual health care cost burden on the VA Healthcare system. Importantly, COPD is associated with frequent emergency room visitation and/or hospitalization patients. Pulmonary hypertension is a common co-morbid condition that worsen morbidity and mortality in patients with COPD. This study will examine the potential for tadalafil, a phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE-5) inhibitor to improve functional status by decreasing pulmonary hypertension. Results from this study are expected to define the potential use of PDE-5 inhibitors in COPD-induced pulmonary hypertension. If successful, this treatment option may improve quality of life and outcomes for the large number of Veterans afflicted with PH due to COPD.
