NCT00021866
The purpose of this study is to determine if antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) differ in their neurodevelopmental effects. Specifically, do the children of the women with epilepsy differ in their behavioral and cognitive development depending on which AED their mother takes during pregnancy?
NCT00082199
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn whether subjects treated with aripiprazole are able to abstain from alcohol use for a greater number of days than subjects treated with placebo. The safety of using aripiprazole will also be studied.
NCT00095745
This trial is a 52-week safety study to evaluate the safety of adjunctive aripiprazole in outpatients with major depressive disorder who have experienced an incomplete response to an ongoing antidepressant trial.
NCT01475968
The purpose of this study is to examine the acute health effects of concentrated ambient ultrafine (UF) particulate matter (PM) exposure in patients with metabolic syndrome. Without lifestyle changes or medical intervention these patients are at considerable risk for developing diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Subjects (25-70) were exposed to both UF PM and filtered air for 2hr (at least 2 week interval), physiologic endpoints were measure pre-, post-, and 20hr post-exposure. Our hypothesis is that PM exposure in this population will result in changes in vascular and endothelial response as assessed by flow-mediated dilatation of the brachial artery and various heart rate variability and blood endpoints. This study and similar studies of susceptible populations are needed to provide the EPA with information regarding the health risks associated with ambient levels of UF PM.
NCT00828841
This study is testing the investigational drug, cetuximab, in combination with different chemotherapy drugs for lung cancer. The aim of the study is to determine which of the drug combinations looks most promising and should be tested further. The study will also look at what side effects may occur.
NCT00004064
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of monoclonal antibody therapy in treating patients who have ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer.
NCT00095524
The primary purpose of this study is to compare the affects of aripiprazole and olanzapine on weight change.
NCT00036998
RATIONALE: Microwave thermotherapy kills tumor cells by heating them to several degrees above body temperature. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of microwave thermotherapy before surgery to that of surgery alone in treating women who have stage I or stage II breast cancer.
NCT00046384
The purpose of this study is to learn if aripiprazole is effective in the treatment of patients with acute symptoms of Bipolar Disorder.
NCT00097266
The purpose of this research study is to confirm the safety and effectiveness of aripiprazole therapy over 12 weeks in subjects with bipolar disorder experiencing symptoms of mania.
NCT00317811
RATIONALE: Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Ascorbic acid may help melphalan work better by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drug. Giving bortezomib together with ascorbic acid and melphalan may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving bortezomib together with ascorbic acid and melphalan works in treating patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
NCT00003292
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 ifosfamide in treating patients with meningeal tumors that have recurred or that cannot be removed surgically.
NCT00208741
The main purpose of this study is to determine how safe and effective Gabitril is for outpatients with Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD).
NCT00003034
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known whether Onconase plus doxorubicin is more effective than doxorubicin alone in treating patients with malignant mesothelioma. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying doxorubicin alone to see how well it works compared to doxorubicin and Onconase in treating patients with malignant mesothelioma.
NCT01575405
This is a double-blinded, randomized, safety, acceptability, pharmacokinetic, and ex vivo efficacy study of three rectally-applied tenofovir-based microbicide formulations. Approximately 18 total evaluable HIV-negative men and women (\~9 per site) will be enrolled across two study sites: University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) and Magee-Womens Research Institute (MWRI) at University of Pittsburgh. Each participant will experience seven rectal exposures to the rectal-specific formulation (RF) and seven rectal exposures to the reduced glycerin vaginal formulation (RGVF) of tenofovir 1% gel, but only one exposure to the vaginal formulation (VF), which will be coupled with six preceding exposures to the Universal HEC Placebo Gel to balance out the VF study stage. Participant accrual will take approximately 6 months and each participant will be on study for approximately 3 months. The total duration of the study will be approximately 1 year. The primary objectives of the study are safety, acceptability, and pharmacokinetics, specifically: * To evaluate the safety of each tenofovir-based microbicide gel formulation when applied rectally * To evaluate the acceptability of each tenofovir-based microbicide gel formulation when applied rectally * To compare systemic and compartment pharmacokinetics among the three tenofovir-based microbicide gel formulations when applied rectally Secondary objective of the study is to evaluate the mucosal immunotoxicity of each tenofovir-based microbicide gel formulation when applied rectally. And the exploratory objective of the study is to assess the preliminary (ex vivo) efficacy of each tenofovir-based microbicide gel formulation using biopsy explants after each product is applied rectally.
NCT00007969
RATIONALE: Photodynamic therapy uses light and drugs that make cancer cells more sensitive to light to kill tumor cells. Photodynamic therapy may be effective in treating melanoma. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV melanoma.
NCT00064064
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as gemcitabine use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. 3-AP may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth and may help gemcitabine kill more cancer cells by making them more sensitive to the drug. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining gemcitabine with 3-AP in treating patients who have metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT00600821
To determine if the addition of AG-013736 to chemotherapy is beneficial in patients with advanced lung cancer who have not been previously treated.
NCT00002811
RATIONALE: Patients with xeroderma pigmentosum are more likely to develop skin lesions in sun-affected areas. These skin lesions, such as actinic keratoses, can develop into skin cancer. T4N5 liposome lotion may reduce actinic keratoses or other sun-induced skin damage in patients with xeroderma pigmentosum. PURPOSE: Randomized double-blinded phase III trial to compare treatment using T4N5 liposome lotion with treatment using placebo in reducing actinic keratoses and other sun-induced skin damage in patients with xeroderma pigmentosum.
NCT00002703
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of conventional radiation therapy with high-dose radiation therapy in treating men with stage I or stage II prostate cancer.
