NCT01571362
The primary objective of the study is to determine the analgesic efficacy and safety of ALO-02 extended-release capsules, when compared to placebo, in subjects with moderate to severe chronic low back pain.
NCT01270438
This phase II clinical trial is studying how well giving combination chemotherapy and bevacizumab with or without RO4929097 works in treating patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as oxaliplatin, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy and bevacizumab is more effective with RO4929097 in treating patients with colorectal cancer.
NCT00456872
Oncology patients require numerous invasive procedures throughout their disease process including bone marrow biopsies (BMB). BMB.s are performed by a significant number of health care providers. One of the biggest concerns for health care providers is to improve patient comfort. The goal of this study was to reduce pain during BMBs. Specific aims of the study were to determine if there is a difference in patients' perceived pain during injection of the pre-procedure anesthetic when buffered versus unbuffered lidocaine is administered to patient's receiving bone marrow biopsies. A double blind, experimental crossover design was used to examine the difference in pain levels when using buffered versus unbuffered lidocaine prior to the bilateral bone marrow biopsy procedure. Based on a power analysis for a paired t-test, a convenience sample of 48 patients was enrolled into the study. Patients served as their own control. The site of first biopsy, and which lidocaine solution was administered first, were randomized. A 100mm visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to measure pain. All data has been collected, are currently under analysis, and results will be completed in August 2006. Differences in groups will be examined using a paired t-test. A demographic questionnaire was used to gather select demographic variables. Correlative studies will be done to examine the relationship between the patient's perceived pain scores and several exploratory variables. Results of this study may change the current type of anesthetic used pre-BMBs thus improving patient comfort.
NCT00427739
At present, there is not accurate way to determine specific flow rates for axial flow ventricular assist devices (VADS). If a right heart cath is needed for these patients for clinical purposes, they will also undergo a cardiac CT scan while the pulmonary artery catheter is in place. It is possible to visualize the flow rates of axial flow VAD's and determine a more accurate rate per specific patient. Data Analyzed with following results: Article in Press for Cardiopulmonary Support and Physiology, results state "Pairwise comparison of calculated output from left ventricular assist devices is feasible using first pass dynamic computed tomography test bolus technique versus thermodilution output measurements yielded good agreement (P=.03). The output calculated using dynamic CT underestimated the thermodilution output measurement by 0.54+ 0.37 L/min (95% confidence interval 0.66-0.94).
NCT02060838
Acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) is part of our current protocol to decrease post-operative bleeding and homologous blood transfusions post cardiopulmonary bypass. Blood is drawn from our patients pre-bypass after obtaining the arterial line and administered back to the patient after separation from cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and reversal of heparin with protamine. In our practice we noticed some variability in the impact of ANH on postoperative bleeding; with some patients appearing to show more hemostasis after separation from CPB than others. This is a prospective study to find out if there is an optimal time period that guarantees the largest amount of functioning platelets and what is the best practice for drawing and storing of ANH to guarantee the largest amount of functioning platelets.
NCT01512134
The purpose of this clinical study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of deep brain stimulation (DBS) as a treatment option for obesity.
NCT00219284
To assess motor function and quality of life (QoL) in Parkinson's disease (PD) subjects with end-of-dose wearing off, comparing immediate and delayed switch to carbidopa/levodopa and entacapone.
NCT00491556
This study proposes to evaluate a pre-DHHS guideline of HAART initiation and then de-intensification management strategy in adolescents with mild immunosuppression and compare changes in CD4% from baseline to week 48 and then during de-intensification.
NCT01759511
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long term safety and tolerability of simtuzumab (GS-6624) in participants with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who had previously participated in Gilead clinical trial AB0024-201.
NCT02510937
Participation in the study will last for 3months, with a 1 month screening phase.
NCT01973192
The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that early viral infections alter the bacterial flora and inflammatory profile in the airway and accelerate progression of pulmonary disease in infants with cystic fibrosis.
NCT00351351
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL), in conjunction with intracorporeal lithotripsy, allows for the rapid removal of any kidney stone regardless of size. Currently, the choice of intracorporeal lithotripters includes ultrasonic, pneumatic, and combined ultrasonic/pneumatic energy sources. Recently, a novel dual probe design as been introduced by Cybersonics of Erie, Pennsylvania. This dual probe intracorporeal lithotrite is called the Cyberwand, and is composed of a fixed inner probe vibrating at an ultrasonic frequency with an outer probe vibrating at about 1,000 Hz. As this new design has the potential to revolutionize intracorporeal lithotripsy, we intend to compare this novel technology to currently available lithotripsy technology in a randomized clinical trial.
NCT00246662
This study primarily determined the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of vosaroxin (SNS-595) in 2 dose schedules, and assessed the PK profile of vosaroxin and defined a recommended dose regimen for Phase 2 studies. Secondarily the study assessed potential biomarkers and antileukemic activity.
NCT00494676
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functional utility for general mobility (walking) of new high power permanent peripheral prism glasses, which provide visual field expansion device for patients with homonymous hemianopia (the complete loss of half the field of vision on the same side in both eyes). The efficacy of real peripheral prism glasses will be assessed relative to sham peripheral prism glasses.
NCT02608957

NCT01666119
This is an open label study in opioid dependent subjects maintained on a stabilized dose of Suboxone tablets or films. The purpose is to assess the safety and tolerability of BEMA Buprenorphine NX administered once daily for 12 weeks to opioid dependent subjects stabilized on Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) tablets or films. Eligible subjects will be converted to an approximately equal dose of BEMA Buprenorphine NX. This dose will be taken throughout the 12-week treatment period with dose adjustments as clinically indicated for either the control of opioid dependence or adverse events (AEs).
NCT02462473
