NCT02128217
Early identification of acute HCV infection is essential to prevent chronic infections and the long-term liver disease complications that may occur. Early identification and treatment of HCV during the acute phase can result in significantly higher response rates with shorter durations of therapy. Pegylated-interferon alfa (PEG-IFN) was the typical treatment for HCV infection. Participants subcutaneously inject PEG-IFN where the average duration of treatment was approximately 20 weeks. With the advancement of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs), it was possible to see if a new DAA might be non-inferior compared to (PEG-IFN). The study was designed to see if a fixed-dose combination tablet can replace the old HCV treatments by being more effective, safer and better tolerated in HIV-infected participants with new HCV infection. The study was a Phase I, open-label, two cohort clinical trial, in which 44 acutely HCV-infected HIV-1 positive participants were enrolled. Participants in each cohort were evaluated in two steps: on treatment (Step 1) and follow-up after discontinuing study treatment (Step 2). The cohorts were enrolled sequentially. Participants in Cohort 1 were enrolled and administered oral Sofosbuvir (SOF) in combination with weight-based ribavirin (RBV). Participants in Cohort 2 were enrolled and administered an oral fixed dose combination of Ledipasvir/Sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF).
NCT01393717
This phase II trial studies how well brentuximab vedotin before autologous (taken from an individual's own cells) stem cell transplant works in treating patients with Hodgkin lymphoma. Monoclonal antibody-drug conjugates, such as brentuximab vedotin, can block cancer growth in different ways by targeting certain cells.
NCT01331304
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of lithium and quetiapine for the treatment of individuals with bipolar disorder.
NCT01159314
This research is being done to compare the safety and effectiveness of two sizes of the Baerveldt glaucoma implant. A Baerveldt glaucoma implant is one of the most common types of glaucoma operations performed. This procedure works by providing a route by which fluid can drain out of the eye to decrease the intraocular pressure. The Baerveldt implant does this by placing a tube into the eye which shunts aqueous fluid to a silicone plate which is attached to the sclera (white portion of the eye). It is this plate that comes in two different sizes (250 square millimeters and 350 square millimeters). Earlier studies have shown that larger plate sizes produce lower eye pressures but that they may also result in more complications. While both Baerveldt devices are currently in use and have been shown to be safe and effective, it is unclear if one is superior to the other. The purpose of this study is to see if one size of device works better with fewer complications.
NCT00096629
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from DNA may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vaccine therapy in treating patients with kidney cancer.
NCT02135939
In this randomized study the investigators aim to determine the effects of a whole-food plant-based vegan diet on markers of inflammation and glucometabolic profile in patients with cardiovascular disease. The investigators hypothesize that a whole-food plant-based vegan diet will reduce markers of inflammation and improve glucometabolic profile compared with the American Heart Association (AHA)- recommended diet at 2 months follow-up in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The investigators are also evaluating endothelial function using the EndoPAT device and stool microbiome.
NCT02387476
This will be a prospective study in subjects with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) to characterize the clinical performance during a single night of therapy with a FRESCA mask compared with a single night of therapy with their existing nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) mask.
NCT00962598
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of a 10-week Omega-3 Fatty Acid treatment phase on brain chemistry of adolescents with major depressive disorder (MDD) using proton magnetic resonance imaging.
NCT00561678
Elderly patients who undergo anesthesia and non-cardiac surgery are subject to deterioration of brain function including the development of postoperative delirium (PD) and postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). These disorders cause disability, distress for both patients and their families, are associated with other medical complications and account for significant additional health care costs. We currently use relatively primitive approaches to preventing and treating PD and POCD. Dexmedetomidine is a drug used for sedation in critically ill patients that provides some pain relief and controls the bodies response to stress. The sedation produced by dexmedetomidine appears more similar to natural sleep than any other drug used for anesthesia and postoperative sedation. Data suggesting that dexmedetomidine can prevent delirium following cardiac surgery and the developing understanding of the causes of PD and POCD suggest that dexmedetomidine will be particularly effective.
NCT02526524
The purpose of the study is to compare the glycemic effects of delayed-release metformin (Met DR) to placebo in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) over 16 weeks. The study is designed to evaluate several doses of Met DR (600 to 1500 mg once daily in the morning \[qAM\]) compared to placebo. A single-blind reference treatment of 2000 mg metformin immediate-release (Met IR) per day administered as equal divided doses (1000 mg Met IR BID) will also be included.
NCT01202760
The primary purpose of this study is to help answer if LY2127399 is safe and effective in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis with or without background disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD) therapy. This study is comprised of 2 periods: Period 1 - 24-week blinded treatment Period 2 - 48-week post-treatment follow-up
NCT01653054
The rationale for this study is that the risk of anal dysplasia in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) as compared to the general population has yet to be investigated prospectively. There have only been a few articles examining this relationship - preliminary results have suggested that patients with IBD are at increased risk for abnormal anal pap smears. As high grade anal dysplasia is strongly associated with an increased risk of anal carcinoma, it is important to identify all high risk groups that might benefit from routine screening. This pilot study aims to determine whether patients with IBD in our Bronx population have an increased risk of abnormal anal Pap smears. We hypothesize that there will be an increased incidence of abnormal anal pap smears in patients with IBD who have been treated with immunosuppressants, given that chronic immunosuppression is related to increased HPV infection.
NCT01076374
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the long term reliability of the Medtronic Adapta®/Sensia™/Versa™ platform of devices.

This study utilizes data collected from the System Longevity Study (SLS).
