NCT00345176
Oral supplementation with the Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS) formulation (antioxidant vitamins C and E, beta carotene, and zinc) has been shown to reduce the risk of progression to advanced age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Observational data suggest that increased dietary intake of lutein + zeaxanthin (carotenoids), omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (docosahexaenoic acid \[DHA\] + eicosapentaenoic acid \[EPA\]), or both might further reduce this risk. AREDS2 was designed to test whether adding lutein + zeaxanthin, DHA + EPA, or lutein + zeaxanthin and DHA + EPA to the AREDS formulation might further reduce the risk of progression to advanced AMD. A secondary goal was to test the effects of eliminating beta carotene and reducing zinc dose in the AREDS formulation.
NCT00353587
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active comparator-controlled phase 2/3 study of three dose levels of MBX-102 (200, 400, 600 mg) given orally to patients with type 2 diabetes receiving concomitant therapy with insulin. Eligible patients will be adults with type 2 diabetes who are taking intermediate- and/or long-acting insulin or pre-mixed (e.g., "70/30") insulin, or a combination of insulin and one or two non-TZD hypoglycemic agents including sulfonylurea, metformin, acrabose or Byetta, but who are poorly controlled on their existing therapy. Preference for enrollment will be given to patients on insulin monotherapy. Patients treated with a combination of insulin and other hypoglycemic agent(s) must be willing and able to discontinue and washout of the hypoglycemic agent(s) for the entire duration of the study (in toto, approximately 28 weeks). Patients who are taking fixed doses of a short-acting insulin (e.g., not a "sliding scale") in combination with intermediate-acting insulin may qualify for the study if both the patient and investigator are willing to either change to pre-mixed insulin (e.g., 70/30) or discontinue use of the short acting insulin for at least 26 weeks. Patients treated with a sliding scale of short-acting insulin will not be eligible for enrollment.
NCT00267696

NCT00110487
The purpose of this investigational study is to determine if a study medication is safe and effective in reducing the symptoms associated with endometriosis; if the study medication reduces the need for pain medication for endometriosis symptoms; and if the study medication improves a participant's ability to carry out daily activities. Qualified participants will receive no cost treatment, which may include study-related examinations, diagnostic procedures including a Pap smear, laboratory testing, and a mammogram (aged 40-45). Qualified participants will also receive study medication at no cost. As a participant, the study volunteer may also experience the satisfaction of knowing she is helping the advancement of women's health care.
NCT00806962
Randomized, double blind, multi-site, study in healthy adults, comparing safety and immunogenicity of two dosage levels of Norwalk VLP Vaccine with adjuvant/excipients and with placebo controls Primary Objective: * Safety as determined by occurrence of local intranasal symptoms or other symptoms as reported by a self-administered memory aid for 7 days after each vaccination and hematology, blood chemistry and physical examinations performed by the clinical research staff * Subjects will also be monitored for Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), and onset of any new medical conditions for 180 days following the last study vaccinations (Day 201). Secondary Objectives Evaluations of immunogenicity as determined by: * Geometric mean titers and seroconversion rate of serum anti- Norwalk VLP IgG and IgA * Stimulation of anti-Norwalk VLP IgA antibody secreting cells (ASC) * Presence of antigen specific memory B-cell response Cells will be collected and stored for possible future evaluation of Norwalk VLP-specific cell-mediated immune (CMI) responses Study Hypothesis: The incidence of adverse events after intranasal Norwalk VLP Vaccine will be the same as the incidence of adverse events after intranasal adjuvant/excipients alone. Norwalk VLP Vaccine and adjuvant/excipients will have a higher incidence of mild to moderate nasal adverse events compared to placebo but similar incidence of other adverse events. Two doses of the 100 µg of Norwalk VLP Vaccine will be more immunogenic than two doses of 50 µg of Norwalk VLP Vaccine. The post-vaccination serum antibody responses, the number of antibody secreting cells (ASC) and IgG and IgA memory B-cell responses directed against Norwalk Virus antigen will be increased after Norwalk VLP Vaccine compared to adjuvant/excipients and to placebo.
NCT01744496

NCT00679991
PRT-201 is a protein that causes long lasting dilation of blood vessels when applied to the outside surface of the blood vessel. The purpose of this study is to determine if PRT-201, when applied to a limited segment of blood vessel immediately after surgery to create an arteriovenous fistula (AVF), is safe, dilates the blood vessel, and increases blood flow through the AVF.
NCT00056069
RATIONALE: Studying the physical and emotional needs of parents who are caring for children receiving chemotherapy for cancer may help doctors plan effective treatments for the patient that allow for improved quality of life of the patient's family. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the different physical and emotional needs of parents whose children are undergoing chemotherapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia either in an outpatient clinic or in the hospital.
NCT00006382
RATIONALE: New imaging procedures such as spiral CT may improve the ability to detect lung cancer in patients who are at high risk for the disease. PURPOSE: Randomized clinical trial to compare the effectiveness of a spiral CT scan with that of a chest x-ray in detecting lung cancer in patients who are at high risk for the disease.
NCT00070252
Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of neoadjuvant tipifarnib combined with docetaxel and capecitabine in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors or stage IIIA or stage IIIB breast cancer. Tipifarnib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for cancer cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and capecitabine, use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining tipifarnib with docetaxel and capecitabine may kill more tumor cells.
NCT00113035
Pompe disease (also known as glycogen storage disease type II) is caused by a deficiency of a critical enzyme in the body called acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). Normally, GAA is used by the body's cells to break down glycogen (a stored form of sugar) within specialized structures called lysosomes. In patients with Pompe disease, an excessive amount of glycogen accumulates and is stored in various tissues, especially heart and skeletal muscle, which prevents their normal function. The primary objective of this study is to identify potential candidates for future clinical studies in Pompe disease.

NCT01160484
This is a phase II, multicenter, open label, nonrandomized study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenalidomide at a dose of 10 mg/dose in combination with bortezomib at 1.0 mg/m2/dose, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) at 4.0 mg/m2/dose, and intravenous (IV) dexamethasone at 40 mg/dose in adult patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM). The study consists of a screening period, followed by up to eight 28 day open label treatment cycles, a final assessment to occur 28 days after the end of the last treatment cycle, and a follow-up period.
NCT00943995
Hypotheses: 1. The provision of thrice weekly subcutaneous (SQ) recombinant growth hormone (rGH) therapy to children receiving in-center hemodialysis (HD) will result in improved growth. 2. The provision of thrice weekly SQ rGH therapy to children receiving in-center HD will result in improved lean body mass, nutritional status and quality of life. TIW rGH treatment regimen (0.35 mg/kg/week divided into 3 doses, each dose being given at the conclusion of the dialysis treatment) for up to 2 years; growth response, Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), and quality of life (QOL) will be measured. The goal is to enroll 20 children who are Tanner 1 with decreased height SDS and/or decreased height velocity standard deviation scoreS (SDS). If this therapy is demonstrated to be efficacious and improves growth and QOL, this therapy could be easily implemented for all eligible children on HD, since parental acceptance should be better without having to administer the rGH at home and compliance for the child will be assured. The investigators thus propose an important study that has the ability to advance their understanding and provide evidence for the best methods to promote growth in children on dialysis. The results of this study will result in important information that will be of value to the entire pediatric nephrologist community, including health care professionals, patients, and families. In a real sense, this study will build on the 2006 Consensus Conference guidelines for evaluation and treatment of growth failure in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This will provide evidence for critical management decisions that can help insure better growth opportunities to more children with CKD.
