NCT00724815
This study was a randomized, parallel group, double-blind, placebo controlled design to compare the efficacy and tolerability of NP101 to a placebo iontophoretic transdermal patch. The primary objective of this study was to assess the proportion of subjects who were headache pain free at two hours after patch activation. Key secondary objectives included: 1. The proportion of subjects who were nausea free at two hours after patch activation. 2. The proportion of subjects who were photophobia free at two hours after patch activation. 3. The proportion of subjects who were phonophobia free at two hours after patch activation.
NCT00792103
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety of long-term treatment with NP101 as assessed by: * Subject self-examination skin irritation scores * Adverse events * Changes in vital signs and ECG parameters The secondary objective is to evaluate the long term efficacy of NP101 as assessed by: * Headache pain free at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 * Headache pain relief at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 * Nausea free at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 * Phonophobia free at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 * Photophobia free at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 * Migraine free at two hours after patch activation for all initial acute migraine attacks treated with NP101 This study will use an open-label design to assess the long term safety of NP101 (sumatriptan iontophoretic transdermal patch). Subjects who continue to be in good health (use of a triptan or use of an NP101 patch is not contraindicated) and received treatment (patch activation) with the study patch for a qualifying migraine under study NP101-007 will be considered eligible for enrollment into the open-label study. Subjects will be expected to remain in the study for up to 12 months.
NCT00806546
This study will use an open-label design to evaluate the safety of NP101. Adult subjects who meet the enrollment criteria will be treated with NP101 (sumatriptan succinate iontophoretic transdermal patch) for acute migraine attacks over a 12 month period.
NCT01626898
Wake Forest University is partnering with Chatham Social Health Council (a community-based organization) to conduct a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of Hombres Ofreciendo Liderazgo y Apoyo (HOLA) en Grupos (Men Giving Leadership and Support in Groups), a Spanish-language HIV risk behavior intervention for Latino men who have sex with men (MSM) in rural North Carolina. Participants in the HOLA intervention, when compared to those in the comparison intervention, will report: increased consistent use of condoms during sexual intercourse; increased use of HIV and sexually transmitted disease (STD) counseling, testing, and treatment services; greater knowledge concerning the impact of HIV on communities (including Latino and MSM)and HIV risk behaviors and prevention strategies; more positive attitudes towards abstinence and condom use; increased self-efficacy to use and assert the use of condoms with sex partners; increased condom-use mastery scores; decreased barriers to risk reduction (e.g. health-compromising aspects of machismo); and enhanced partner and provider communication and sexual negotiation skills.
NCT01684410
This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose escalation study to assess the safety and tolerability of 100 mg and 200 mg of inhaled Alpha-1 HC administered once a day for three weeks in subjects aged 18 years and older with cystic fibrosis (CF). The treatment duration in this study was intended to provide multi-dose safety information prior to proceeding to longer durations of exposure.
NCT00774852
This study is for individuals with lupus who have developed complications in their kidneys, or lupus nephritis. The study will determine whether adding the experimental medication abatacept to standard cyclophosphamide therapy is more effective in improving lupus nephritis than standard cyclophosphamide therapy by itself.
NCT01190839
REMICADE (infliximab) is a drug used to treat active Crohn's disease and is being tested in an experiment to see if it may be useful in preventing relapse of Crohn's disease after surgical resection. This study will compare the effects (both good and bad) of REMICADE (infliximab) to those of placebo. Placebo looks like the drug being studied but has no active ingredients.
NCT02411305
Few formal mechanisms for collecting, analyzing, and reporting data on quality in palliative care exist. Such infrastructure is needed to understand current clinical practices, inform quality improvement projects, and research which links adherence to specific quality measures and improved patient-centered outcomes. This infrastructure, if proven feasible, can then become integrated into usual palliative care delivery across the PCRC. Then, palliative care can conduct the same types of collaborative quality improvement activities, based on data collected at point of care, as other medical disciplines like general surgery and cardiology.
NCT02247934
The objectives of this qualitative study are to elicit concepts about symptoms that are important to patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), as well as the key impacts of symptoms on patients' day-to-day functioning.
NCT00425815
The TURNS is a National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) funded contract for the evaluation of new compounds for the treatment of cognitive impairments in schizophrenia (HHSN 27820044 1003C; P.I.: Steve Marder, M.D.). Despite advances in the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of antipsychotic medications for the treatment of schizophrenia, many patients continue to be plagued by impairments in social and work functioning. Persons with schizophrenia commonly show deficits in a number of areas of cognition that include impairments in attention, memory, and executive functioning (the ability and organize one's behavior). Importantly, a large body of literature now shows a link between cognition and community functioning in schizophrenia. It is believed that treatments that improve cognitive deficits may lead to improvements in work and social functioning. A promising approach to improve the community functioning of patients with schizophrenia is to develop new agents that treat the cognitive deficits of the illness. One type of pharmacological compound that has shown promise at improving cognition is a group of drugs called ampakines. These drugs are believed to improve the activity of a neurotransmitter system in the brain called the glutamate system. Increased activity of this system has been linked to improvements in cognitive functioning. The current study is an eight-week trial comparing two doses of the ampakine drug, Org 24448, that will be added to patients' current atypical antipsychotic medication. One hundred thirty-five patients with schizophrenia, drawn from seven sites, will participate in the study. Cognition will be measured using a variety of paper-and-pencil and computerized measures from the consensus-derived NIMH Measurement and Treatment Research to Improve Cognition in Schizophrenia (MATRICS) cognitive battery. Psychiatric symptoms and the ability to perform community-based tasks of daily living will also be measured. Because previous trials with this drug and other similar drugs have detected lasting cognitive benefits, this trial will also repeat clinical assessments four weeks after completion of the study medication.
NCT00932646
The study is intended to characterize the lung function profile of BI1744 in COPD patients where patients will perform pulmonary function tests at regular intervals for 24 hours at the end of a 6 week treatment period. Each patient will receive all four treatments.
NCT01087944
