NCT01143402
This randomized phase II trial studies temozolomide to see how well it works compared to selumetinib in treating patients with melanoma of the eye that has spread to other places in the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Selumetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether temozolomide is more effective than selumetinib in treating melanoma of the eye.
NCT00334828
The purpose of this study is to compare eritoran tetrasodium and placebo in patients with severe sepsis and to demonstrate a reduction of mortality from all causes.
NCT01353677
This is a multi-institution, non-randomized, prospective pilot study to evaluate the feasibility of collecting quality of life (QOL) data on a large cohort of pediatric and adult allogeneic Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) recipients.
NCT03229447
This study compares two methodologies for improving access to medication assisted treatment (MAT) in Ohio courts where MAT is currently restricted or prohibited. All participating courts are asked to view two educational modules. Module 1 addresses the nature of opioid addiction and treatment. Module 2 addresses concerns specific to criminal justice such as misuse and diversion of medications. Courts selected for the experimental group also receive a hands-on change team initiative in which specially trained professionals work with court staff to provide education and instrumental assistance in order to improve access to MAT for court supervisees who are opioid-dependent.
NCT00054132
This phase II trial studies how well erlotinib hydrochloride and bevacizumab work in treating patients with stage IV breast cancer. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving erlotinib hydrochloride and bevacizumab may be an effective treatment for breast cancer.
NCT00335556
This phase II trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and/or surgery work in treating patients with high-risk kidney tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving combination chemotherapy together with radiation therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.
NCT02070588
This feasibility study is being conducted to determine potential associations between a broad range of clinical neurological symptoms and magnetic resonance images (MRI), data, and clinical findings involved in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). These associations will be examined over the acute and sub-acute period (approximately 3 months) following injury to provide information useful for optimization of MR pulse sequences for mTBI applications. Correlations exist over the sub-acute period in clinical neurological and MR data (images, image reads, and RAW data), which may indicate temporal evolution patterns. The intent of this study is to broadly generate potential biomarkers of temporal evolution of mTBI detectable in MR images and data ("MR mTBI biomarkers").
NCT02256566
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a computerized cognitive training program (an attention and memory exercise performed on a computer) on thinking and memory in individuals with mood and anxiety disorders, and to begin to test whether this training affects symptoms of depression or anxiety.
NCT01934491
This study is evaluating the effects of two brain training exercises on: memory, cognitive processing and depression symptoms.
NCT01697358
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) using the Medtronic Specify® 5-6-5 multicolumn surgical lead plus optimal medical management (OMM) versus OMM alone in patients suffering from predominant low back pain due to failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS).
NCT00106938
The study is being conducted to demonstrate the non-inferiority of carotid artery stenting (CAS) using the Emboshield® Embolic Protection System with the Xact® Carotid Stent System to carotid endarterectomy (CEA) for the treatment of asymptomatic extracranial carotid atherosclerotic disease.
NCT03224039
This study will be a single-center, randomized, controlled trial conducted in the Brooklyn Hospital Center's Emergency Department (ED) expected to last 2 years. The sample size will be 40 patients with 20 patients in each treatment arm. The data points to be collected in the study are as follows: baseline characteristics (baseline pain score, date of birth, age, gender, weight and ethnicity), NRS pain scores at 5, 10, 20, and 30 minutes, dose of study treatment administered, incidence of adverse effects, time to patient discharge following administration of study treatment, patient satisfaction of pain control based on a 10-point Likert Scale, number of patients who required rescue analgesia, and amount of rescue analgesia required. 4. Once informed consent is obtained, patients will be randomized to receive Treatment A (sufentanil 0.7 mcg/kg intranasally (IN) and normal saline 1ml IV push) OR Treatment B (Normal saline 0.6 mL IN and morphine 0.1 mg/kg IV push). It should be noted that during the study period, use of additional morphine or adjuvant analgesics outside of the designated time intervals is allowed. The decision to use adjuvant analgesics is the decision of the attending physician assigned to the patient in the Emergency Department (ED).
NCT02609841
This study assesses serum potassium and cardiac rhythm trends in subjects with end stage renal disease (ESRD) who are on 3 times weekly maintenance hemodialysis for at least 60 days. Dialysate K (relative potassium concentration in dialysate) must be stable for 2 weeks prior to enrollment.The number of subjects on 3K or higher dialysate will be limited to 60, with the remainder of the subjects on 1K or 2K dialysate.
NCT00968162
Most bone marrow transplants for children with sickle cell disease are performed using high doses of two chemotherapy agents: busulfan and cyclophosphamide for the pre-transplant conditioning. This approach produces cure in most cases (approximately 95%). It, however, has serious side effects, including seizures and infertility. The primary goal of this study is to determine how much we can lower the dosages of busulfan and cyclophosphamide by incorporating fludarabine, a safer chemotherapy agent, into conditioning. The secondary goal is to develop a better understanding of how bone marrow transplants cause neurologic problems like seizures.
NCT00437060
This clinical trial is looking at brain function in young patients receiving methotrexate for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Learning about the long-term effects of methotrexate on brain function may help doctors plan cancer treatment.
NCT01007435
This randomized, double-blind, parallel group study will assess the safety, disease remission, and prevention of structural joint damage in patients with early moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis treated with tocilizumab as monotherapy or in combination with methotrexate, versus methotrexate alone. Patients will be randomized to receive either (A) tocilizumab (8 mg/kg iv every 4 weeks) plus placebo, (B) tocilizumab (8 mg/kg iv every 4 weeks) plus methotrexate (7.5-20 mg po weekly), (C) tocilizumab (4 mg/kg iv every 4 weeks) plus methotrexate (7.5-20 mg po weekly), or (D) placebo plus methotrexate (7.5-20 mg po weekly). Patients in groups C and D who have not achieved low disease activity at week 52 can receive tocilizumab 8 mg/kg iv every 4 weeks. Anticipated time on study treatment is 104 weeks.
NCT00535782
This 2 arm study will investigate the effects of tocilizumab on lipids, arterial stiffness, and markers of atherogenic risk in patients with moderate to severe active rheumatoid arthritis. In Part 1 of the study, patients will be randomized to receive either tocilizumab 8mg/kg intravenously or placebo every 4 weeks, in combination with methotrexate 7.5-25 mg weekly. In Part 2, all patients will receive open-label treatment with tocilizumab plus methotrexate.
NCT01920633
This is a single visit study in which people with Down syndrome aged 12-30 will attend the clinical center to undergo assessments to evaluate their eligibility for potential enrollment in the future BP27832 Phase II clinical study which will evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of RG1662. Study participants may withdraw from this study at any time and for any reason.
NCT00931801
The purpose of this Phase IV pilot study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and satisfaction of a nucleoside analog reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI)sparing regimen for participants fully suppressed on an atazanavir/ritonavir based highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)regimen plus emtricitabine/tenofovir (Truvada). Several pharmacologic factors support this concept including the favorable drug interaction between atazanavir and raltegravir. Participants will be randomized to either continue on their current regimen or one of two study arms (atazanavir 300mg plus ritonavir 100mg daily plus raltegravir 400mg twice daily or atazanavir 300mg twice daily plus raltegravir 400mg twice daily). Participants will be followed for 48 weeks for safety, tolerability, and satisfaction. After baseline, the participants will have six clinic visits for evaluation and labs.
NCT00634036
Asthmatics who are significantly overweight tend to have more severe symptoms, more flare ups, and are more likely to have poorly-controlled asthma when compared to other asthmatics. Researchers believe this occurs because excess adipose tissue (fat) in the body can cause higher-than-normal levels of leptin and lower-than-normal levels of adiponectin in the blood. The researchers of this study are testing a medication called pioglitazone in overweight asthmatics because they believe it can help regulate leptin and adiponectin and that this may improve symptoms of asthma.
