NCT00465088
To demonstrate that niacin ER and simvastatin (NS) tablets, when compared to atorvastatin (Lipitor®; Pfizer, Inc.), has superior high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) elevating effects at Week 12 in subjects with type II hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia who are currently off lipid-modifying therapy. This was a prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint (PROBE) study.
NCT00991198
This study is an evaluation of the role of topical dissolved oxygen to lessen visible signs of photodamage using a select regimen of topical dissolved oxygen containing cosmeceutical products. Evaluation of the overall skin tolerability of topical dissolved oxygen (safety) utilizing the regimen of products.
NCT00033839
This is a 49-day study to evaluate the effectiveness of Intranasal Civamide (Zucapsaicin) in the treatment of an episodic cluster headache period compared to placebo (medically inactive substance which does not contain any active ingredients).
NCT00419705
The purpose of this pivotal study is to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the NeuroThera® Laser System (referred to hereafter as NTS) in the treatment of Subjects diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke. The initiation of NTS treatment must be feasible for each Subject within 24 hours of stroke onset.
NCT00650637
The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of calcium carbonate for the prevention of nelfinavir-associated diarrhea and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of calcium carbonate in combination with loperamide for the treatment of nelfinavir-associated diarrhea.
NCT00644293
To determine if a single 2.0-g dose of azithromycin SR is at least as effective as a 3-day course of azithromycin (500 mg once daily for 3 days) when used to treat adolescents and adults with strep throat, and to assess efficacy and safety for both treatment regimens.
NCT00798707
The primary purpose of this study is to compare the antidepressant efficacy and safety of two doses of DVS SR (25 and 50 mg/day) in the treatment of adults with Major Depressive Disorder. The study will also assess changes in sexual function and general and functional quality of life outcomes.
NCT00975455
The purpose of the study is to evaluate subjects with gross or microscopic hematuria undergoing scheduled cystoscopy to determine the absence or presence of bladder cancer.
NCT00100386
Primary Outcome Measures:Incidence density of colonization with MRSA or VRE (number of new colonization events per 1000 patient days at risk) during the intervention phase. Secondary Outcome Measures:The effect of the 2 strategies on the incidence density of colonization with MRSA and VRE individually will be determined and compared descriptively. The effect of the strategies on the cumulative incidence of bacteremia caused by MRSA and VRE will be determined to assess the clinical relevance of the strategy in preventing infection. The trial will evaluate the frequency of hand hygiene and the use of gloves and gowns by healthcare workers to substantiate whether the effect of the intensive control strategy is mediated, as expected, by an increase in the use of gloves and gowns due to an increase in the number of patients cared for using Contact Precautions.
NCT00679328
This study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the OP device for the treatment of nonunion bone fractures and to compare the healing rates of the OP Device to that of autograft.
NCT00503347
This trial is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and viral kinetics after multiple infusions of bavituximab in patients co-infected with HCV and HIV.
NCT00131560
This study uses autologous (one's own) CD4 T cells modified with a viral vector expressing a genetic antisense targeting HIV, this vector is called VRX496. Study treatment is by intravenous infusion of vector modified cells and infusions will be provided every other week for a total of 4 or 8 doses. These modified cells, once infused, may provide immune support and are not destroyed by HIV, and thus may delay or reverse HIV disease progression. The study will enroll up to 40 male and female HIV-positive subjects in up to 8 centers. Subjects will be 18 years of age and over who have failed or are intolerant to at least one triple combination of antiretroviral drugs. Subjects must have a viral load between 5,000 and 200,000 copies/ml and a CD4+ count of ≥150, be in good health and have no evidence of active opportunistic infection, heart disease, or bleeding disorders. Subjects must not be on corticosteroids, immunomodulating agents or hydroxyurea. Subjects must not have received an AIDS vaccine or any investigational gene therapy product at any time. Females must not be pregnant or breastfeeding.
NCT00550004
This will be a Phase II, multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, study of six 28-day treatment cycles for patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic pancreatic cancer. The study will be conducted at approximately 55 sites in the North American, Europe, and South America. Approximately 153 subjects will be enrolled in a randomization (ratio 2:1).
NCT00069082
NCT01201460
The principal goal of this study was to assess the feasibility of plasma glucose testing in private dental practice. A second aim was was to assess prevalence of plasma glucose abnormalities in dental patients seen by (DPBRN) practitioner-investigators.
NCT01201876
The purpose of this study was to document the reasons for replacement or repair of defective restorations ("fillings") and to record the restorative material of the failed restoration and the material used in the replacement restoration on permanent ("adult") teeth.
NCT00933738
This is a multi-center study designed to evaluate the heparin insensitivity of the INRatio Prothrombin Time (PT) Monitoring System, utilizing an INRatio test strip additionally modified for low sample volume. The INRatio test strip is used for the quantitative determination of PT and International Normalized Ratio (INR) results in fingerstick blood from subjects on oral anticoagulation therapy (OAT) with warfarin. This study is designed to evaluate the accuracy of the modified INRatio test strip during heparin-warfarin bridge therapy with unfractionated heparin (UH) or low molecular weight heparin (LMWH), such as enoxaparin or dalteparin. These INR results will be compared to the INR results obtained on plasma from the same subjects as analyzed at a central laboratory with the heparin-insensitive reference method: the Sysmex CA-560 System. The levels of UH or LMWH in the plasma samples will be assessed using activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and anti-factor-Xa assays respectively.
NCT00145639
This trial (OS99) evaluates the use of ifosfamide, carboplatin, and doxorubicin in an up-front window before surgery for localized and resectable osteosarcoma. High-dose methotrexate, which may interfere with the dose-intensive delivery of other agents, is eliminated from the treatment of localized disease. The primary objective is to compare the response rate of pre-surgical chemotherapy comprised of ifosfamide, doxorubicin, and carboplatin to that obtained with ifosfamide and carboplatin in the St. Jude OS-91 trial for patients with non-metastatic resectable osteosarcoma. We hypothesize that the histologic response rate will be improved by the addition of one course of pre-operative chemotherapy on this trial compared to the previous OS-91 trial.
NCT01378572
With the present study the investigators intend to identify the morphologic and electrophysiologic substrate markers of increased arrhythmic risk in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy undergoing implantation of a defibrillator for the primary prevention of sudden cardiac death. Moreover, the investigators also aim to identify if there is any electrophysiological substrate modification at the time of the first arrhythmic event in these patients. To this aim, the investigators will prospectively correlate electroanatomic mapping and cardiac magnetic resonance findings with arrhythmic events, in order to identify substrate markers of increased arrhythmic risk in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, who are therefore more likely to benefit from a defibrillator implantation. Furthermore, electroanatomic mapping will be repeated at the time of the first arrhythmic event and compared with that at baseline, in order to evaluate any electrophysiological substrate changes.
NCT00761332
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of teriparatide versus therapies that decrease bone loss to prevent new or worsening back pain in patients with osteoporosis seen in clinical practice.
