NCT00662116
This study is being done to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of alagebrium in subjects diagnosed with diastolic heart failure. The primary assessment for effectiveness is the assessment of exercise tolerance.
NCT00335374
This is a multicenter, 6 months open label safety extension study for all patients who are willing and eligible to continue from the pivotal, double-blind S308.3.003 trial
NCT00239759
The goal of MIRAGE is to evaluate the association of genetic and non-genetic risk factors for Alzheimer's Disease.
NCT00053183
RATIONALE: Internal radiation uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. External-beam radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Combining internal radiation with external-beam radiation therapy may kill any remaining tumor cells following surgery. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining internal radiation therapy with external-beam radiation therapy in treating patients who have undergone surgery for glioblastoma multiforme.
NCT00007774
Although currently marketed antipsychotic drugs are useful in the treatment of schizophrenia, efficacy and safety profiles need to be improved. Forty to eighty percent of patients either fail to respond or only partially respond to conventional antipsychotic agents. Secondary symptoms may be unimproved even in patients who respond to treatment. A variety of adverse events occur in patients receiving currently available agents. The severity of these events contributes to the poor compliance that is observed in this patient population. Olanzapine is a novel antipsychotic agent with a reduced incidence of extrapyramidal symptoms. Other side effects are minimal.
NCT00111618
The purpose of this trial is to confirm a safe dose of AS1404, to be given with docetaxel, and to see whether adding AS1404 and docetaxel together improves the outcome of the treatment, when compared to docetaxel alone.
NCT00004028
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of carmustine in treating patients who are undergoing surgery for recurrent malignant glioma.
NCT00499499
The purpose of this study is to investigate E7107 in patients with solid tumors. This is an open label, dose-escalation study of E7107. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the single agent will be established by determining the occurrence of dose limiting toxicities during the first three weeks of therapy (Cycle 1). Patients in this study will be treated at multiple dose levels, starting at 0.6 mg/m\^2. Patients will receive E7107 as a 30-minute intravenous infusion on Days 1 and 8 every 21 Days.
NCT00436592
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and feasibility of the NeuroFlo™ catheter in treating patients with ischemic stroke whose last time symptom-free was between 8-24 hours prior to treatment. The NeuroFlo device is intended to increase blood flow to the brain and potentially reduce the damage caused by stroke.
NCT00411723
RTL1000 is a new agent that has not been previously tested in humans. It is thought that RTL may specifically control the abnormal immune response or attack against the insulation on the nerves that occurs in multiple sclerosis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possible side effects of a single intravenous dose of RTL1000 in subjects with multiple sclerosis. Some subjects will also be asked to participate in one or both of two substudies, one to test blood samples to see how the body's immune system responds after administration of RTL1000, and the other to test blood samples to see how the body absorbs and eliminates the RTL1000.
NCT00070629
Eligible patients will be randomized in a ratio of 2:1 to receive either chemotherapy (a taxane and a platinum compound) plus CPG 7909 Injection or chemotherapy alone. Protocol therapy will be administered until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. CpG 7909 Injection will be administered subcutaneously, on Weeks 2 and 3 of each three-week cycle (days 8 and 15) and chemotherapy will be administered on Week 1 (Day 1). Patients will undergo complete disease evaluation at the end of every other treatment cycle until disease progression.
NCT00156026
This study looks at immediate treatment of a cervix with CIN 1 versus regular six-month follow-up with colposcopy and treatment if CIN 1 progresses.
NCT00637793
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of NGX267 in the improvement of decreased salivary flow associated with primary or secondary Sjögren's syndrome. For each patient, the study includes four periods of treatment separated by a washout period that may range from 4 - 8 days according to patient and site discretion. Each treatment period includes two overnight stays in the clinic. One dose of study drug is taken during each treatment period
NCT00474656
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common and catastrophic complication of critical illness related to burns, motor vehicle accidents, or overwhelming infection. ARDS kills 40-70% of affected patients. Patients with ARDS require life support in the form of a ventilator to breathe for them while their lungs heal. Ironically, ventilators can cause further damage to the lungs. We are conducting a study comparing 2 methods to protect the lungs from further damage. One method uses standard mechanical ventilators and the other uses a new type of ventilator, called a high frequency oscillator. We propose to test whether this high frequency oscillation will reduce the relative risk of dying from ARDS. 72 patients from 12 intensive care units in Canada and Saudi Arabia will participate in this preliminary study to test the feasibility of our study methods. If feasible, we plan to move on and conduct a large multinational study to definitively answer this question.
NCT00636740
The objective of MER-101-03 is to examine the effects of two different dosing regimens of MER-101 20mg tablets versus Zometa 4mg IV infusion once-monthly therapy. The effects will be monitored on a weekly basis by measuring various markers of bone metabolism. Patients to be enrolled will be those who have not received any previous bisphosphonate therapy. The study will be carried out on prostate cancer patients who are no longer on hormone therapy. Treatment in the study will be for a 2-month period.
NCT00427206
The study objective was to determine if liver injury develops in alcoholic patients during or following 5 days of therapeutic acetaminophen dosing. Volunteers were recruited from two community detoxification centers to take either acetaminophen (4g/day) or placebo for 5 consecutive days. All subjects were monitored an additional two days following the dosing period. The primary measures were aminotransferase measures taken at baseline and Days 2, 4, 6 and 7. We hypothesized that there would be no difference in aminotransferase means between the groups at any study period.
NCT00285220
This two site study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of laparoscopic truncal vagotomy for the treatment of obesity with baseline study and 18 month post op follow up.
NCT00058864
HIP PRO is a multicenter randomized, controlled trial of an energy absorbing and distributing padding system designed to reduce the incidence of hip fractures in 546 nursing home (NH) residents. The trial is being conducted in three geographic regions of the US: Boston, St. Louis, and Baltimore. Non bed- or chair-bound residents over the age of 65 are given protective underwear containing a single pocket and hip pad so that each resident becomes his/her own control. During the trial, hip fracture incidence will be compared in padded and unpadded hips using an intent to treat analysis. A secondary aim is to identify resident and facility factors contributing to non-adherence with the use of the hip protector.
NCT00004017
RATIONALE: Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. This may be an effective treatment for some types of brain tumors. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of radiolabeled monoclonal antibody in treating patients who have glioblastoma multiforme or anaplastic astrocytoma.
NCT00160160
This study is to demonstrate the superiority of combination of eprosartan/HCTZ versus ramipril/HCTZ.
