NCT00450281
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood and tissue from smokers (closed to entry as of 7/15/07) and non-smokers with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors learn more about risk factors for lung cancer and may help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying carcinogens in lung tissue from smokers (closed to entry as of 7/15/07) and non-smokers with newly diagnosed stage I, stage II, or stage III non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT01833065
12 Week Efficacy and Safety Trial Followed by a 4 Week Withdrawal Period for Patients with Chronic Idiopathic Constipation.
NCT01370733
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of synchronized transcranial magnetic stimulation (sTMS) using the NeoSync EEG Synchronized TMS device (NEST) in subjects with Major Depressive Disorder. This is a multicenter study in which subjects will be randomized to receive treatment 5 days per week for 6 weeks. Subjects who complete 6 weeks of double-blind treatment may be eligible to receive up to four weeks of open label sTMS therapy or antidepressant medications during the follow-up phase of the study. Follow-up evaluation visits will be conducted during those four weeks, with the frequency of the visits determined by the treatment choice during that timeframe.
NCT02025647
Innerview can address some of the challenges of integrating mental health and primary care by accurately and reliably collecting mental health evidence and activities directly from patients, and then organizing and automating that evidence and activity into reports for providers and care teams that support diagnosis, treatment planning and monitoring of the mental health issues within a practice population.
NCT01125189
To establish that at least 1 dose of daclatasvir combined with standard of care (pegylated interferon and ribavirin) is safe and well tolerated and demonstrates extended rapid virologic response rates at least 35% greater than those with placebo.
NCT01829399
Purpose: Even with excellent regional anesthesia of the upper extremity, tourniquet (Tq) pain from an upper arm Tq can limit the ability to use regional anesthesia as the primary anesthetic for surgical procedures on the upper extremity. The aim of this study is to determine whether a subcutaneous ring of local anesthetic on the inner aspect of the upper arm just distal to axillary crease will significantly diminish Tq pain. If it does, peripheral nerve blocks distal to the Tq (i.e., nerve blocks at the elbow) could be used as the primary anesthetic for surgery of the hand and forearm. These distal peripheral nerve blocks have fewer complications than brachial plexus blocks performed at higher levels, and, postoperatively, the patient has better control of his or her arm when distal nerve blocks are used. Procedures (methods): This is a prospective, cross-over study to examine the effectiveness of an upper arm Subcutaneous ring of local anesthetic alone in relieving Tq pain. This Subcutaneous ring of local anesthetic is often referred to as "Intercostobrachial nerve block" or "Subcutaneous ring anesthesia (SRA)." Twenty volunteers will be randomized into four groups of 5 participants each. During the initial experiment, the first group will be given SRA with 10-15 mL of 0.25% Bupivacaine with Epinephrine 1:200,000 on their dominant arm, the second group will be given SRA with 10-15 mL of 0.25% Bupivacaine with Epinephrine 1:200,000 on their non-dominant arm, the third group will be given "sham" SRA with saline on their dominant arm, and the fourth group will be given "sham" SRA with saline on their non-dominant arm. 15 minutes after SRA, a Tq will be applied to the arm with the subcutaneous injection and it will be inflated to 100 mm Hg above the subject's baseline systolic blood pressure. We will monitor heart rate, blood pressure (opposite arm) and pain (0 to 10 VAS) every 5 minutes. Each Tq will be released when the subject requests deflation or when 1 hour of Tq time has elapsed, whichever occurs first. The subject's discomfort level (VAS) just prior to deflation will be recorded. Since Tq pressure alone can inhibit nerve function, we will monitor motor and sensory function distal to the Tq every 10 minutes during Tq inflation and for 30 minutes after Tq deflation. One to two weeks after this initial study, the same 20 subjects will receive SRA on the same arm and the same parameters will be measured. The 10 subjects who received 0.25% Bupivacaine the first time will receive Normal Saline, and the 10 subjects who received Normal Saline the first time will receive 0.25% Bupivacaine. In this way, each subject will act as his or her own control.
NCT00110019
This randomized phase III trial studies carboplatin, paclitaxel, and sorafenib tosylate to see how well they work compared to carboplatin and paclitaxel in treating patients with stage III or stage IV melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether giving carboplatin and paclitaxel together with sorafenib tosylate is more effective than carboplatin and paclitaxel in treating melanoma.
NCT00874770
The purpose of this study is to identify 1 or more doses of daclatasvir, which when used in combination with pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin, are safe and demonstrate sufficient anti-hepatitis C virus activity.

NCT00905307
This will be a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to assess the tolerability, safety, and efficacy of OPC-34712 (0.25 to 6.0 mg) for the treatment of adult subjects hospitalized with an acute relapse of schizophrenia. Aripiprazole (10 to 20 mg) is included as a positive control to confirm the assay sensitivity of the study. A total of approximately 563 subjects will be screened at an estimated 75 sites worldwide in order to obtain approximately 450 randomized subjects.

NCT00574899
Radical Prostatectomy (removal of the prostate) or radiation therapy provide excellent outcomes for patients with localized (confined to one area) disease, yet there is still no effective treatment once the disease has spread beyond the prostate gland. Typically, a serum PSA test is done to diagnose prostate cancer. Following diagnosis, a prostate biopsy and other tests help to classify the patient's disease according to the likelihood of a recurrence. However, these assessments are imperfect. There is a need to identify and evaluate prostate biomarkers that will provide exact information regarding the likelihood of a recurrence (prediction) of prostate cancer.
NCT00282399
