NCT00035152
Taxol and carboplatin are commonly used drugs for the treatment of stage IIIB or IV non small cell lung carcinoma. This study compares treatment with Taxol/carboplatin given every 3 weeks to a schedule where it is given weekly. The purpose of the study is to determine the most effective and safe schedule for giving these drugs in non small cell lung carcinoma.
NCT00991328
The purpose of this study is to determine whether brain oxygenation measured by cerebral oximeter has an impact on neurocognitive dysfunction.
NCT00525148
The primary objective of this open-label, single arm Phase II trial is to explore the efficacy of BIBW 2992 defined by the objective response rate (CR, PR) as determined by RECIST criteria in patients with advanced NSCLC Stage IIIB or IV whose tumors harbor activating mutations within exon 18 to exon 21 of the EGFR receptor. Patients progressing or relapsing after one prior cytotoxic chemotherapy regimen as well as chemotherapy naïve patients (only in stage 2) will be allowed to enter into the trial.
NCT00274677
This study is an 8-week evaluation of an investigational drug for treating depression in bipolar patients. Depressed patients will be given either an investigational drug or placebo and receive psychiatric assessments of their depression at weekly visits. Study drug and all study-related visits are provided at no cost to the patient. The patient agrees to meet with study research staff for roughly 11 clinic visits.
NCT01104116
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is a cystic pancreatic lesion that is a precursor to invasive pancreatic cancer. Differentiating whether an IPMN lesion is benign or malignant is critical, as the prognosis and management differs drastically, varying from surgery to clinical observation. However, despite physicians' attempts to characterize features concerning for malignancy, it is difficult to determine the likelihood of malignancy with conventional imaging techniques, and an accurate and non-invasive test to identify malignant IPMN is needed. Our hypothesis is that positron emission tomography (PET), a three-dimensional imaging that can identify cancer cells through their increased use of sugars, may be a superior test for differentiating between benign and malignant IPMN lesions. The investigators are planning a prospective pilot study of patients with IPMN who are undergoing surgery for their disease. These patients will undergo PET imaging, as well as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) as clinically indicated. Samples of tissue removed during surgery will be assessed and will serve as the gold standard for determining whether the lesion is benign or malignant. The investigators will evaluate the positive and negative predictive values of PET imaging for malignancy within IPMN lesions.
NCT00329225
This 24-week study will compare the effects of adding the drug rosiglitazone (2mg and 4mg) or placebo to insulin in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (non-insulin-dependent) who have not achieved their blood glucose goal using insulin alone. This study requires a total of seven visits during 28 weeks.
NCT00496262
This study evaluated the single-dose pharmacokinetics of human fibrinogen concentrate and clot strength (maximum clot firmness \[MCF\]) in subjects with congenital fibrinogen deficiency. MCF was measured to demonstrate the functional activity of replacement fibrinogen when a fixed dose of human fibrinogen concentrate was administered.
NCT00571649
This study will evaluate if extended therapy with oral rivaroxaban can prevent blood clots in the leg and lung that can occur with patients hospitalized for acute medical illness, and compare these results with those of the standard enoxaparin dose and duration regimen. The safety of rivaroxaban will also be studied.
NCT02812082
The purpose of this study is to develop an interactive web-based patient education program to help educate patients about the increased risk of MS and its cardiac risk factors following allo-SCT and to inform and motivate patients how to make lifestyle changes. This program will be used in addition to counseling at participants clinic visits. The investigators are not changing the recommendations for prevention and management of these conditions, but rather are trying to improve the way they provide this education to patients.
NCT00107757
The purpose of this study is to determine if the investigational drug is effective and safe in children with seasonal allergic rhinitis.
NCT01642381
The purpose of this study is to investigate the critical components of motivational interviewing (MI), a psychotherapeutic intervention, in reducing heavy or problematic drinking. The study will disaggregate MI into its component parts and test full MI compared to MI without its directive strategies. This study will test whether the directive elements of MI are critical or whether MI effects may be attributable solely to its Rogerian, non-directive components.

NCT01687257
This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy of combination therapy with sofosbuvir (SOF) plus ribavirin (RBV) for 48 weeks in adults with compensated and decompensated chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Approximately 50 adults will be randomized (1:1) to receive study drug for 48 weeks or take part in an untreated observational arm for the first 24 weeks followed by study drug for another 48 weeks.
NCT01447225
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of MM-121 + certain anticancer therapies
NCT02329184
The purpose of this study is to establish initial safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of MYK-461 in human subjects. This is a sequential group, single ascending (oral) dose study in NYHA Class I, II, or III patient volunteers aged 18-65 years.
NCT01527838
This trial is a prospective, open-label, single-arm trial of the safety of a single FT1050-treated CB unit for hematopoietic reconstitution after a reduced-intensity conditioning regimen for hematologic malignancies. A maximum of 40 eligible adult subjects will be enrolled and treated in the trial at approximately 2-4 centers within the U.S.
NCT01342484
The main objective of this study is to identify the dose of linagliptin in paediatric patients. Other efficacy objectives include the comparison of the lowering effect of linagliptin low dose, high dose and placebo on the fasting plasma glucose (FPG) observed after 12 wk of treatment. Furthermore, the study will investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK), the pharmacodynamics (PD) and the PK/PD relationship of linagliptin in the paediatric population.
NCT00463294
I. Main Research Question: * To compare the risks and benefits of Off-pump Coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) to On-pump CABG and to determine if one is better than the other. * The purpose of this pilot study is also to see the rate of recruitment with expertise-based randomization across different hospital settings. II. Small RCT studies and meta-analyses done so far have not been able to conclusively say which of the procedure is better. A large randomized study is required to establish the risks and benefits associated with both the off-pump and on-pump CABG surgical procedures. III. The study will look at which of the two techniques reduce major risks associated with CABG.
NCT01179308
Test the effect of combined regiona/general anesthesia on lung cancer recurrence compared to general anesthesia alone.
NCT00684229
This study will compare recurrence rates in patients with colorectal cancer who will be randomly assigned to epidural anesthesia/analgesia combined with general anesthesia or to general anesthesia followed by opioid analgesia.
NCT01742052
The primary objectives of the study are: * To evaluate the effects of three oral doses of MT-1303 compared to placebo given for a period of 24 weeks in subjects with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) on MRI parameters * To evaluate the safety and tolerability of three oral doses of MT-1303 compared to placebo given for a period of 24 weeks in subjects with RRMS.
