NCT02222337
Latina breast cancer survivors report lower quality of life (QOL) than non-Latina survivors. Lower QOL can lead to poorer functional and cancer-related survival outcomes. The friends and family of Latina cancer patients are also impacted by a loved one's diagnosis of breast cancer. Through strong community-academic partnerships, the investigators seek to improve the QOL of Latina survivors and their caregivers with a culturally-relevant intervention. In this project, the investigators plan to further develop and refine the intervention and then test it through a randomized controlled trial. First, the investigators will conduct in-depth qualitative interviews with 10 survivor-caregiver dyads (pairs) to see if the intervention fits for survivors and caregivers in different parts of the country. Then, the investigators will revise the intervention. Finally, the investigators will test the intervention in a randomized controlled trial. The investigators will invite 125 survivor-caregiver dyads to be a part of our study. Half will be asked to complete the intervention and half will be offered the usual services, such as support groups. The information learned from this study could help improve the quality of life in Latina breast cancer survivors and their caregivers. Physicians, survivors, and community groups can also benefit from this study because they will have more information about the needs of Latina breast cancer survivors. The investigators hope to use the information to help other types of survivors and caregivers in the future.
NCT01289041
This is a prospective multi-center, open-label, single arm, Phase II study to investigate the safety and efficacy of BKM120 in patients with advanced endometrial carcinoma whose disease progressed on or after a first-line antineoplastic treatment. Patients will receive BKM120 orally at a dose of 100 mg/day. Availability of tumor specimen (either archival tissue or a fixed fresh biopsy) is mandatory for assessment of the PI3K (Phosphatidylinositol 3 Kinase (PI3K) pathway activation status.
NCT01920477
Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a rare, chronic, debilitating, and potentially life-threatening autoimmune disorder that is characterized by mucocutaneous blisters. Ofatumumab is a novel monoclonal antibody (mAb) that specifically binds to the human CD20 antigen, which is expressed only in B lymphocytes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of ofatumumab injection for subcutaneous use (ofatumumab SC) 20 milligrams (mg) administered once in every 4 weeks, (with an additional 20 mg loading dose \[i.e. 40 mg total\] at both Week 0 and Week 4) in subjects with PV. It was anticipated that with sustained B-cell depletion in the presence of ofatumumab SC, and the resultant reduction of pathogenic anti Dsg (desmoglein) autoantibodies in PV, that clinical remission of the disease would result.
NCT02451228
This study will follow pregnant women who are taking indomethacin as Standard of Care (SOC) for the indications of preterm labor (PTL), short cervix, or other indications, to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), what the body does to the drug, and pharmacodynamics (PD), effectiveness of the drug in treating the specific intended disease process of this medication. This will help us develop more information for medication dosing specific to pregnant women experiencing preterm labor. Indomethacin is often prescribed to pregnant women presenting with preterm labor or shortened cervix, which places them at risk for preterm labor and delivery. Indomethacin has been used since the 1970s to prolong pregnancy by decreasing uterine contractions. However, despite the widespread use of indomethacin in pregnancy, there is limited information available to help physicians determine how much indomethacin to prescribe and how often to prescribe it.
NCT01898806
This study aims to determine the frequency of response to treatment with 3 concentrations of IL TAC, 2.5mg/ml, 5mg/ml or 10mg/ml as well as the duration of response and incidence of side effects compared to treatment with placebo (sterile saline solution). After the 1st 6 months, nonresponders or partial responders may be treated for 6 months with open label triamcinolone at the dose deemed appropriate by the investigator. The investigators will also perform skin biopsies of the scalp and draw blood at selected time points in order to examine the immunohistochemical/pathological response in scalp hair follicles and the systemic circulation to treatment with IL TAC for alopecia areata.
NCT03331042
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of a combination drug product (SM-1) containing diphenhydramine, zolpidem and lorazepam, in adult participants who sometimes have difficulty in falling asleep or staying asleep, but who do not have chronic insomnia. Participants will receive SM-1, or a combination of diphenhydramine and zolpidem, or a combination of diphenhydramine and lorazepam, or placebo during 4 one-night stays at a sleep center.
NCT02002533
This randomized phase II trial studies how well brief behavioral therapy works in improving sleep disorders in patients with stage I-III breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. Sleep disorder counseling may reduce fatigue and insomnia as well as improve the well-being and quality of life in patients with breast cancer who are undergoing chemotherapy.
NCT01367665
This single-arm, open-label, multi-center study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of vismodegib (GDC-0449) in patients with locally advanced or metastatic basal cell carcinoma. Patients will receive oral doses of vismodegib 150 mg once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
NCT02185521
Philips has developed a new algorithm, called Hemodynamic Instability Rules Based Advisor (HIRBA 2.0) system, for the prediction of hemodynamic instability in critically ill patients, who were not previously known to be at risk. This algorithm provides with the numerical index - Hemodynamic Instability Index (HII) and its trend which are calculated from existing real time data derived from patient's current hospital stay such as heart rate and blood pressure, labs, and Admission - Discharge- Transfer (ADT) data to help healthcare providers obtain information about patient's status and make clinical decisions. The aim of the study is to determine if the patient clinical information, displayed in the form of HII, can prompt possible patient hemodynamic status change and trigger earlier clinical care team response. We hypothesize that this real-time information on hemodynamic instability and earlier clinical decision making will lead to reduced length of stay (LOS) and ICU mortality relative to standard care practice. Study will also identify if the use of the Philips new algorithm called Hemodynamic Instability Rules Based Advisor (HIRBA 2.0) can improve outcomes for patients admitted to the intensive care units (ICUs). During this study, upon patient admission to the ICU clinical data collection will begin. Data that will be pulled during the study includes: vital signs, medications, reason for admission to the ICU, treatments that patient may receive. Research subjects will not be asked to do anything as far as specific activities expected to be accomplished during study participation. Subjects will be involved in the study only during their stay in ICU. HII information will be visible to clinicians, taking care of this patient only during his/ her stay in the study unit. Study team will collect patient information and have the ability to view the HII for subjects. Once patient leaves the ICU the study team will collect information on the remainder of patient's hospital course including date of hospital discharge. All collected data will be then fully de-identified and released to Philips for analysis.
NCT01544491
The purpose of this study is to determine if everolimus combined with reduced exposure CNI (TAC) is efficacious and safe and will support corticosteroid elimination compared to a standard exposure CNI (TAC) + MMF + steroid regimen after paediatric kidney transplantation. An additional purpose of the study is to assess the effect of the combination of EVR and reduced exposure CNI (TAC) on renal function. This study is part of the requirements of the Paediatric Investigational Plan approved by Paediatric Committee at the European Medicines Agency (PDCO/EMA) on September 10, 2010, and is intended to support the indication of everolimus in the prevention of acute rejection in paediatric recipients of a renal transplant.
