NCT00053898
RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast cancer cells. Tamoxifen may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen. Anastrozole may fight breast cancer by decreasing estrogen production. It is not yet known whether anastrozole is more effective than tamoxifen in preventing the recurrence of breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying anastrozole to see how well it works compared to tamoxifen in preventing the recurrence of breast cancer in postmenopausal women with ductal carcinoma in situ who are undergoing lumpectomy and radiation therapy.
NCT00070109
This phase II trial is studying how well trabectedin works in treating young patients with recurrent or refractory soft tissue sarcoma or Ewing's family of tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy such as trabectedin use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
NCT01114581
The purpose of this research study is to explore the mechanism of action of Mucinex, an oral, over-the-counter, FDA approved expectorant in patients with acute respiratory tract infections.
NCT02951689
Purpose: To evaluate the influence of probiotic supplementation on body composition and other markers of health in occupational shift-workers. Participants: Healthy, overweight females (ages 22-55 yrs) who are employed on a shift-working schedule. Procedures (methods): In a randomized, placebo-controlled intervention, subjects will complete 3 different testing sessions (pre-screening, 1 baseline, 1 post-testing session) as well as a 6-week intervention period. Prescreening will include written informed consent, a health history questionnaire, baseline anthropometric measures, assessment of resting heart rate, and exercise protocol familiarization. Baseline testing will involve body composition, a fasted blood draw, mood surveys, and an exercise treadmill test. Subjects will be randomized to a treatment group (multi-strain probiotic or placebo) for 6 weeks of supplementation that includes 2 electronic contacts, followed by post-testing that will occur in the same fashion as baseline testing.
NCT01707797
The study aims to develop a questionnaire that can be used to help uncover a child's risk of developing dental caries (also known as tooth decay or a cavity). The aim is to develop a practical and easily-scored risk tool that a primary medical care provider can use to help find young children with the highest risk for developing cavities.
NCT02638259
Demonstrate equivalent efficacy of GP2015 and EU-authorized Enbrel in patients with moderate to severe, active (RA) who had an inadequate response to disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARD) including methotrexate (MTX).
NCT00304083
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin, ifosfamide, and etoposide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving combination chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. Giving combination chemotherapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with stage III or stage IV malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors.
NCT00433381
This randomized phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well giving bevacizumab together with irinotecan or temozolomide works in treating patients with recurrent or refractory glioblastoma multiforme or gliosarcoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as irinotecan and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving bevacizumab together with irinotecan or temozolomide may kill more tumor cells.
NCT01121536
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of long term (6 months) armodafinil treatment as adjunctive therapy to mood-stabilizing medications in adults with bipolar I disorder.
NCT00003821
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of aminopterin in treating patients who have refractory or recurrent endometrial cancer.
NCT01971515
This is a Phase 1, first-in-human, open-label, non-randomized, dose escalation, trial to explore the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD) and clinical activity signals of MSC2363318A.
NCT02885181
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of GS-9876 versus placebo for the treatment of signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in participants with active RA as measured by change from baseline in Disease Activity Score for 28 joint count using C-reactive protein (CRP) (DAS28 (CRP)) at Week 12.
NCT02415595
The purpose of this study is to find at least one dose of BMS-955176 that will be safe, effective and tolerable for HIV-1 infected treatment naive adults.
NCT02262338
AGT-182 is a fusion protein containing idursulfase that is intended to deliver the enzyme peripherally and to the brain, when administered intravenously. This study is a safety and dose ranging study to obtain safety and exposure data, as well as information on the biological activity of the investigational drug.
NCT01920815
In order to determine the effectiveness of medical therapy options to prevent enlargement of the aorta in patients with a bicuspid aortic valve, a randomized study will be planned. This feasibility study will gather accurate data on number needed to screen, changes in medication use over time, and variance of the intended study endpoint.
NCT02043015
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the acceptability and uptake of a combination package of biomedical, behavioral and community-level HIV prevention interventions and services for men who have sex with men (MSM) in South Africa.
NCT00005645
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ILX-295501 in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV ovarian cancer that has not responded to previous therapy.
NCT02815982
This purpose of this pilot study is to investigate the feasibility of and optimal time post cancer treatment to offer caregivers a new health behavior change intervention (NOURISH-T), as well as assess its preliminary efficacy on specific child health behaviors. The study will also explore whether caregivers NOURISH-T exhibit more improvements than caregivers in EUC (standard care).
NCT00146172
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability as well as find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for HKI-272. In addition, this study will examine the effects of the study drug on your tumor, and how your body uses and eliminates HKI-272.
NCT03250156
This project aims to evaluate the effectiveness of mindfulness training (MT) on cognitive and psychological factors when incorporated to the duty-day schedule of servicemembers (via proctored mindfulness practice). Based on prior literature, it can be hypothesized that the benefits of MT on measures of attention, working memory, and psychological well-being will be greater for servicemembers who engage in proctored mindfulness practice and receive duty-day support compared to servicemembers who practice independently, on their own time, with no structured duty day support.
