NCT02820038
The aim of the proposed project is to compare the effectiveness of two strategies designed to enhance patient understanding of medication risks/benefits: (1) Medication Guides, mandated for many medications by the Food and Drug Administration and (2) Drug Facts Boxes, developed by Woloshin and Schwartz to enhance the usability of consumer medication information. The investigators will also assess whether the effectiveness of these communication strategies can be increased by Gist Reasoning Training, which is designed to enhance patients' ability to extract meaningful gist from complex information.The investigators anticipate enrolling 300 individuals with rheumatoid arthritis. The study will use a randomized controlled trial design with four study arms. Data will be collected primarily via self-administered, Internet-based surveys using REDCap. All participants will be followed for 6 months after the completion of baseline data collection.
NCT01511653
The investigators are undertaking a multi-center, 13000 subject validation study of several biomarkers for early detection of colon cancer. There are stool based biomarkers and blood based biomarkers being validated in this study. The biomarkers will be compared with colonoscopy and with FIT (fecal immunohistochemistry) tests which are the current standards for colon cancer screening. This is an NCI-early Detection Research Network funded project. The population targeted for this study are those persons undergoing colonoscopy for screening. Prior to colonoscopy or even prepping for colonoscopy, subjects will provide blood and stool samples as well as specific data regarding their GI and general medical history and concomitant medications. If subjects are interested in participating, arrangements will be made to see them. The informed consent process will take place, blood will be obtained, data will be obtained, and the stool kit described and given to the subject to take home. Stool samples will be sent back to the University of Michigan using prepaid mailing labels.
NCT02081391
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of tapentadol oral solution, based on the total amount of supplemental opioid analgesic used over 12 hours or 24 hours after initiation of investigational medicinal product (IMP) in children and adolescents who had undergone surgery that would produce moderate to severe pain during opioid treatment.
NCT02318511
This is a Prospective, Randomized study evaluating the efficacy of ReNu for the treatment of Kellgren-Lawrence grade 2 or 3 osteoarthritis. Patients will be randomized into 1 of 3 groups for injection into the effected knee: 1) ReNu - study treatment, 2) Hyaluronic Acid (HA) injection - with commonly used injection material and 3) Saline. After treatment, patients will be followed up to 12 months to evaluate improvements using common pain and function subscales.
NCT02109939
Evaluate the impact of GeneSight Psychotropic on response to psychotropic treatment as judged by the mean change in the 17-item Hamilton Depression (HAM-D17) score from baseline to end of Week 8 of the study.
NCT02991911
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability, describe the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose (MAD \[in the absence of establishing the MTD\]) for single agent MEDI3726 in subjects with mCRPC who have received prior treatment with abiraterone or enzalutamide, with or without a prior taxane-based chemotherapy in the mCRPC setting.
NCT03233841
The primary objective of this study is to establish the natural history of Farber disease (acid ceramidase deficiency) through the collection and analysis of retrospective and prospective data on patients diagnosed with Farber disease. All patients diagnosed with Farber disease are eligible, including both those who have and have not undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Additionally, data and records from deceased patients will provide valuable retrospective data for this study. The secondary objective of the study is to establish a set of clinical data, laboratory data (biomarkers), and functional data potentially useful for: * Assessing the efficacy of HSCT and the efficacy of potential future therapies (for example with RVT-801, recombinant human acid ceramidase) in Farber disease * Characterizing changes in symptoms of patients over time * Characterizing distinct groups (phenotypes) within the patient population * Documenting the disease histories of individual patients to serve as intra-subject control data for those who may enroll in any future clinical studies with therapies for Farber disease The exploratory objectives of the study are: * To explore the relationship between patient disease activity or phenotype and specific ceramide levels or specific immunologic markers (cytokines/chemokines) in blood * To evaluate a standardized tool, the Farber Disease Natural History Instrument (FDNI), to be used for the collection of patient history information, data from clinical, laboratory, genetic, and functional studies, and data from review of medical records
NCT03505125

NCT02574390
Creation of a large repository of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), bio-fluid samples (blood and spinal fluid (optional)), and cell lines for ALS gene identification. This will be combined carefully with collected measures of the pattern of the symptoms people with ALS have and how these change over time. People with other motor neuron diseases and healthy controls will be included as comparisons
NCT04230889
A randomized, multicenter, open-labeled, parallel, three group pilot study to evaluate the impact of a diabetes-specific nutritional shake on glucose control.
NCT02833948
The aortic valve is located between the left ventricle and the aorta. Patients with symptomatic, severe aortic valve stenosis conventionally have it surgically replaced requiring direct access to the heart through the chest. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is now a well-established alternative for treating severe aortic valve stenosis. Both types of intervention improve prognosis and alleviate symptoms. The optimal choice of blood thinning therapy after TAVR is unknown. It has been reported that leaflet thrombosis with reduced leaflet motion can occur and this phenomenon has been suggested to be potentially related with neurological events. In addition, the occurence of this phenomenon can be reduced with anticoagulation blood thinning therapy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if anticoagulation compared to the usual double platelet inhibitor therapy after TAVR can reduce the risk of leaflet thrombosis.
NCT03417505

This is a randomized double masked cross-over study to examine contact lens discomfort and dry eye symptoms with Tangible Hydra-PEG treated scleral lens wear compared to untreated scleral lens wear in the dry eye patient population.
NCT02215174
Statins are the first-line and most commonly prescribed drugs for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases and stroke in the world. Our preliminary studies suggest that Caucasians might have a higher risk of developing potentially life-threatening drug-drug interactions than Asians when taking statins. Drug-drug interactions occur in the body when two or more drugs interact in a way that alters their effectiveness and/or toxicity. These interactions are becoming an increasingly severe problem with statin usage since patients at higher risk for cardiovascular diseases also take statins combined with many other drugs, such as antihypertensive and diabetic drugs. Our study is aimed at understanding the molecular factors and providing a sound basis for the interethnic dosage and response differences for statins. Drug-transporting proteins in intestine and liver tissues are responsible for taking up statins into the blood. It is hypothesized that there are interethnic function differences of these proteins and that they account for differences in statin blood levels between Caucasians and Asians and the frequency and/or severity of their respective drug-drug interactions. A clinical study will be conducted with Caucasian and Asian subjects undergoing gastric bypass surgery so excess intestine and liver tissue can be acquired as part of the standard procedure. Protein levels will be quantified in the tissues and correlate them with different statin blood levels.
