NCT02222337
Latina breast cancer survivors report lower quality of life (QOL) than non-Latina survivors. Lower QOL can lead to poorer functional and cancer-related survival outcomes. The friends and family of Latina cancer patients are also impacted by a loved one's diagnosis of breast cancer. Through strong community-academic partnerships, the investigators seek to improve the QOL of Latina survivors and their caregivers with a culturally-relevant intervention. In this project, the investigators plan to further develop and refine the intervention and then test it through a randomized controlled trial. First, the investigators will conduct in-depth qualitative interviews with 10 survivor-caregiver dyads (pairs) to see if the intervention fits for survivors and caregivers in different parts of the country. Then, the investigators will revise the intervention. Finally, the investigators will test the intervention in a randomized controlled trial. The investigators will invite 125 survivor-caregiver dyads to be a part of our study. Half will be asked to complete the intervention and half will be offered the usual services, such as support groups. The information learned from this study could help improve the quality of life in Latina breast cancer survivors and their caregivers. Physicians, survivors, and community groups can also benefit from this study because they will have more information about the needs of Latina breast cancer survivors. The investigators hope to use the information to help other types of survivors and caregivers in the future.
NCT03306888
This study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a clinic-based physical activity coaching intervention in people with pre-manifest and early stage Huntington's Disease (HD). Fourteen individuals with premanifest and early stage HD will be recruited to participate in a 4 month coaching intervention. Feasibility will be assessed by recruitment and retention rates, and acceptability will be assessed by participant interviews. Participants will also be evaluate at baseline and following the coaching intervention to explore preliminary efficacy in terms of physical activity, self efficacy, disease-specific motor and cognitive function, walking endurance and strength.
NCT00296725
Depressed patients will have hearing tests and then be treated with up to three treatments (i.e., Fluoxetine, Imipramine) until remitted, to see whether test results predict specific outcomes.
NCT02677623
Many gynecologic, urologic and pelvic reconstructive surgeries require accurate ways to identify the opening of the ureters to ensure that they are working correctly. Historically, indigo carmine, an intravenous medication that dyes the urine blue, has been used to help visualize the opening of the ureters with cystoscopy which is a camera placed inside the bladder. In June 2014, the FDA announced there was current shortage of indigo carmine. Thus, investigators need to evaluate other methods for assessing ureteral patency. Ideal alternatives are agents that are low-risk, inexpensive, provide comparable visualization, are readily available and are easy to use. Examples of such agents currently being used to evaluate the ureters, include oral pyridium, IV sodium fluorescein, and mannitol. These agents help identify the opening of the ureters by either dyeing the urine a different color such as pyridium and sodium fluorescein, or by having a different viscosity to urine such as mannitol. This study will compare three methods of evaluating ureteral patency at time of cystoscopy compared to no method: mannitol, sodium fluorescein, and pyridium.
NCT00901901
This is a randomized trial to evaluate the clinical benefit of sorafenib 400 mg twice daily and erlotinib 150 mg once a day versus sorafenib 400 mg twice daily and placebo erlotinib once daily in subjects with unresectable advanced or metastatic Child-Pugh A HCC. Patients who are candidates for potentially curative intervention (i.e. surgical resection or local ablation) are not eligible for this study.
NCT02850276
The purpose of this study is to explore a possible link between the autonomic nervous system and immune function in patients with HIV. Sometimes HIV can cause these nerves to function abnormally, this is called HIV-associated autonomic neuropathy (HIV-AN). HIV-AN is a condition that is different from person to person. In some people it causes no symptoms and is not harmful, in others it may cause symptoms such as dizziness or lightheadedness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, or problems urinating. Most people with HIV-AN don't know that they have it. One of the important nerves in the autonomic nervous system is the vagus nerve. Abnormal function of the vagus nerve may cause stomach and intestinal slowing, which could lead to an overgrowth of bacteria. The body senses these bacteria and tries to fight them, leading to inflammation. In this study the researchers will test whether abnormal function of the vagus nerve in HIV is associated with stomach slowing and overgrowth of bacteria, and if a drug called pyridostigmine can help.
NCT02240030
This randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled, double-blind study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of inhaled CVT 301 compared with placebo in PD patients experiencing motor response fluctuations (OFF phenomena) as an outpatient (i.e., at home) and in the clinic. Patients who successfully complete this study will be eligible to enroll into a 12 month treatment extension (CVT-301-004E) study.
NCT01755052
SILVER-AMI is a research study of older persons who are admitted to the hospital with a heart attack. Patients will be interviewed in the hospital and again 6 months later. The researchers will also collect detailed medical record information to understand the effect of heart attacks on older persons. The research team at Yale University will use this information to develop a risk model that can be used to help doctors predict recovery. The goal of the study is to help older people in the future make well-informed decisions about their health care during a heart attack.
NCT01722318

NCT01429987
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, 12 week repeat oral dose, dose ranging study to determine the efficacy and safety of 3 doses of plecanatide compared to placebo in patients with Chronic Idiopathic Constipation (CIC).
NCT02993783

NCT01544491
The purpose of this study is to determine if everolimus combined with reduced exposure CNI (TAC) is efficacious and safe and will support corticosteroid elimination compared to a standard exposure CNI (TAC) + MMF + steroid regimen after paediatric kidney transplantation. An additional purpose of the study is to assess the effect of the combination of EVR and reduced exposure CNI (TAC) on renal function. This study is part of the requirements of the Paediatric Investigational Plan approved by Paediatric Committee at the European Medicines Agency (PDCO/EMA) on September 10, 2010, and is intended to support the indication of everolimus in the prevention of acute rejection in paediatric recipients of a renal transplant.
NCT02467907
This study is to assess safety as defined by the frequency and severity of gastrointestinal (GI) perforation/fistula, GI-vaginal fistula and genitourinary (GU) fistula in participants treated with bevacizumab 15 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin, all repeated every 3 weeks, for recurrent, persistent or metastatic cervical cancer. In addition, this study will include evaluation of the overall safety profile of bevacizumab in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin in this setting, assessment of GI perforation/fistula, GI-vaginal fistula and GU fistula events over time, and evaluation of efficacy.
