No additional SM04690 or placebo therapy will be administered in this study.
NCT01464775
Endometriosis is a relatively common chronic gynecological condition that affects approximately 10% of all women of reproductive age. It is a pelvic inflammatory disease that is characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside of the uterine cavity. Typical symptoms of endometriosis include dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain, and infertility; the severity of pain associated with this disease often leads to a considerable decrease in quality of life. The standard treatment for severe pelvic pain and infertility is to surgically remove endometriotic areas. Identifying all endometriotic lesions is paramount to "optimal endometriosis debulking." The inability to see all endometriosis lesions has been thought to be a factor for patients with little or no relief following surgery. Using the Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) method has the potential to improve visualization of endometriosis lesions, assist in debulking and thus, result in improved clinical outcomes. NBI is a technique that uses a specific narrow wavelength of light to change the normal color contrasts of the endoscopic image and improve detection of neovascularization, which is the pathological feature of endometriosis for both superficial and deeper vascularization. This type of imaging has the potential to offer improved discrimination of lesions, increasing diagnostic yield as well as resulting in more complete debulking. This study is designed to determine the degree to which NBI improves the detection and diagnosis of endometriosis lesions. Data collected during the study will be used to test the hypothesis that the use of NBI will improve the detection and diagnosis of endometriotic lesions at the time of laparoscopy compared to standard visible white light examination. Furthermore, this study will also determine the impact of the use of NBI compared to use of white light examination on reported severity of pain at 6-weeks, 3-months, and 6 months following surgery. Hypotheses: The use of NBI in addition to white light examination will improve the diagnostic yield of endometriotic lesions at the time of laparoscopy compared to only using white light examination. The use of NBI in addition to white light examination will improve the sensitivity of detecting endometriotic lesions and reduce false positives at laparoscopy compared to only using white light examination. Secondarily, the use of NBI will be associated with a greater reduction in pain at the 6-week, 3-month, and 6-month follow-up compared to the use of white light examination alone because of improved lesion identification and debulking.
NCT03240575
The primary objective of the trial is to show superiority in lung function of once daily (2 inhalations) treatment with orally inhaled tiotropium+olodaterol fixed dose combination to twice daily (one inhalation) treatment with fluticasone propionate+salmeterol fixed dose combination over 12 weeks in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). A Digital Health (DH) exploratory study has been integrated into the main study as a site specific study. The DH exploratory study will be performed at a single site; the site is also participating in the main study. The DH exploratory study site will enter (randomize) approximately 20 patients (subjects) (in addition to the patients to be enrolled in the main study at this site). The patients enrolled in the DH exploratory study are not considered to be part of the main study (i.e. data collected in the DH exploratory study will be analyzed separately from the data collected in the main study).
NCT02961764
This study will evaluate a new critical pathway (use of guideline-based patient identification criteria and for those who meet these criteria, use of dalbavancin) for the treatment of ABSSSI compared to usual care.
NCT01848249
Compared to chronic dialysis, kidney transplantation provides recipients with longer survival and better quality of life at a lower cost. In order to meet increasing demands for kidney allografts, kidneys from older and sicker donors are being procured. This has led to greater discard rates of donated kidneys as well as more complications for recipients, including shorter allograft survival. Available clinical models to predict kidney allograft quality have poor prognostic ability and do not asses the degree of kidney allograft injury. However, allograft injury near the time of procurement can lead to major consequences for the transplant recipient: greater risks of delayed graft function, poor allograft function and premature loss of the transplant. Our proposal is based on the hypotheses that novel biomarkers measured in donor urine and transport media at the time of procurement can assess acute and chronic kidney injury and that distinct biomarker patterns will predict allograft survival. In collaboration with five organ procurement organizations, we will collect urine samples from consecutive deceased donors and samples of transport solution for every pumped kidney. We will measure markers of injury, repair, inflammation and fibrosis. We will determine mortality and allograft survival in all patients by linkage to the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) database (Overall Cohort). Additionally, we will perform a detailed chart review of a subset of recipients (detailed cohort) and will also examine associations between biomarkers and longitudinal graft function over five years after transplant. Early, non-invasive and rapid assessment of donor kidney injury could drive better allocation decisions and potentially reduce the rates of post-transplant complications. Further, these new tools could provide a platform for clinical trials of therapies for allografts and kidney transplant recipients aimed at ameliorating allograft injury.
NCT03705013
The primary endpoint is to obtain longitudinal information on four sub-populations from the Cologuard Post-Approval Study.
NCT03335059
This study will determine whether Synergo® RITE + MMC treatment is efficacious as second-line therapy for CIS NMIBC BCG-unresponsive patients with or without papillary NMIBC, through examination of the complete response rate (CRR) and disease-free duration for complete responders. The study will also explore progression-free survival time, bladder preservation rate, and overall survival time. The study will address an unmet need to identify a treatment effective in both ablating the disease and providing a prolonged disease-free period for patients. Ideally, the treatment will delay progression to invasive disease, thus preserving the bladder.

NCT02324257
Study BP29541 is a first-in-human, open-label, multi-center, dose-escalation Phase I clinical study of single-agent RO6958688 in participants with locally advanced and/or metastatic carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) positive solid tumors who have progressed on standard treatment, are intolerant to standard of care (SOC), and/or are non-amenable to SOC. The study will be conducted in two parts. Part I of the study will investigate the safety and pharmacokinetics of a single dose of RO6958688 in single participant cohorts with dosing starting from a minimal anticipated biological effect level dose of 0.05 milligrams (mg) and up to a maximum dose of 2.5 mg. Part II will establish the appropriate therapeutic dose based on safety, pharmacokinetics, and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of RO6958688 for the once per week (QW) regimen, every three weeks (Q3W) regimen, and for the step up dosing regimen.
NCT01688895
The initial objective of this protocol is to assemble a well-documented group of patients with confirmed diagnoses of the erythropoietic protoporphyrias, including autosomal recessive Erythropoietic Protoporphyria (EPP) and X-Linked Protoporphyria (XLP) for clinical, biochemical, and genetic studies. The long-term objectives are (1) to conduct a longitudinal investigation of the natural history, complications, and therapeutic outcomes in people with erythropoietic protoporphyria, (2) to systematically investigate the psychological effects of the erythropoietic protoporphyrias on children and adults, and (3) to investigate the correlation between the identified genotypes and the resulting clinical presentation, also determining the possible interaction of other genetic markers.
NCT02131766
The purpose of this study is to use the USS Virginia Closed-Loop system for overnight insulin delivery in adults with Type 1 Diabetes (T1DM) in an outpatient setting to evaluate the system's ability to significantly improve blood glucose levels. This protocol will test the feasibility of "bedside" closed-loop control - an approach comprised of standard sensor-augmented pump therapy during the day using off-the-shelf devices and overnight closed-loop control using experimental devices in an outpatient setting. The rationale for this study is as follows: we anticipate that closed-loop control may ultimately be adopted by patients with T1DM in a selective manner. Patient may choose to start using these systems for overnight control only, e.g. to alleviate the well documented fear of hypoglycemia while asleep. To test this paradigm of "bedside" closed-loop control, subjects will be studied with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-augmented usual pump therapy during the day followed by overnight use of USS Virginia Closed Loop Control.
