NCT01273155
Background: \- Belinostat is an experimental cancer treatment drug that works by helping to turn on genes that limit cell growth and survival of cancer cells. These genes are often switched off in tumors. Belinostat has been given to patients with different types of cancer to measure its safety and effectiveness, but it has not been given in a formal trial to cancer patients who have abnormal liver function. Because belinostat is processed by the liver, its safety and effectiveness needs to be established in individuals who have abnormal liver function. Researchers are interested in comparing the effects of belinostat as a cancer treatment drug in individuals with normal and abnormal liver function. Objectives: * To test the safety and effectiveness of belinostat in individuals who have solid tumors and lymphomas and who also have abnormal liver function. * To compare the results of belinostat treatment in individuals with normal and abnormal liver function. Eligibility: * Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with solid tumors or lymphomas that have not responded to standard treatment. * Individuals with normal liver function and varying degrees of abnormal liver function (mild, moderate, severe) are eligible. Design: * Participants will be screened with a full medical history and physical examination, as well as blood and urine tests, and tumor imaging studies. Participants will then be divided into study groups based on their liver function. * Participants will receive belinostat in cycles of treatment. Except for cycle 1, all cycles will last 21 days. Cycle 1 will last 28 days. For cycle 1 only, participants will receive a single dose of belinostat 1 week before the regular 21-day treatment cycle starts. * In each cycle, participants will receive belinostat once a day for 5 days, and will be asked to keep a medication diary to record any side effects. * Participants will have regular clinic visits with blood and urine sample collection and imaging studies to evaluate the cancer's response to treatment. * Participants may continue to take belinostat for as long as the cancer responds to the treatment.

NCT00009620
This large randomized trial tested whether phenobarbital given to a pregnant woman about to deliver a premature infant would prevent brain injuries in their newborns. Women with 24 to 32 week fetuses who were in preterm labor and were expected to deliver within 24 hrs were randomized to phenobarbital or usual care. They were treated until they deliver or the fetus reaches 33 wks gestation. Babies were followed until discharge and evaluated at 18-22 mos corrected age for neurodevelopmental outcome.
NCT02378480
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of omadacycline as compared to linezolid in the treatment of adults with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections.
NCT03048344
Part 1 will be conducted as an open-label, non-randomized, non-placebo-controlled dose escalation study using pre-specified doses. Subjects with the following advanced hematological disorders and no available therapies, and who satisfy all inclusion/exclusion criteria will be enrolled. The purpose is to identify the recommended dose of oral ORH-2014 in subjects with advanced hematological disorders. Part 2 will be an expansion phase conducted as a single-arm, open-label study to further evaluate the safety and tolerability of ORH-2014 at the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended dose determined from Part 1 in the fasted state. Subjects with the same disease types as in Part 1 will be enrolled. All subjects will receive oral ORH-2014, in the fasted state, at the recommended dose for an initial period of up to 12 weeks. The purpose is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of oral ORH-2014 in a population of subjects with advanced hematological disorders when administered at the recommended dose.
NCT00109525
This observational study evaluated the performance of new lab tests in detecting candida species fungal infections in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants quickly and accurately. 19 NICHD Neonatal Research Network sites enrolled 1,500 infants with birth weights ≤1,000g; 100 of these infants later tested positive for candidiasis. Blood, urine, and lumbar puncture samples were collected whenever other specimens were obtained from participants for cultures. These samples are being tested using the new methods and compared with standard culture results. Surviving study subjects completed a neurodevelopmental evaluation at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT01223261
The purposes of this study were: 1) to compare mortality and postoperative morbidities in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants who underwent initial laparotomy or drainage for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) or isolated intestinal perforation (IP); 2) to determine the ability to distinguish NEC from IP preoperatively and the importance of this distinction on outcome measures; and 3) to evaluate the association between extent of intestinal disease determined at operation and outcome measures. All ELBW infants born at participating NRN centers were screened for the presence of NEC or IP that was thought by the pediatric surgeon and neonatologist to require surgical intervention. Data were collected enrolled infants, including: intraoperative findings recorded by the surgeon and specific post-operative complications. Neurodevelopmental examinations were conducted on surviving infants at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT00273325
Premature infants are at a high risk for pneumonia. The PCV-7 vaccine effectively prevents the invasive disease from Streptococcus pneumoniae in full-term infants, but was not thoroughly studied in premature infants. This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine given in routine practice to very low birth weight infants, looking at blood antibody levels 4-6 weeks after the final vaccine dose, and adverse events, survival, infections, and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT00005772
This large multicenter trial tested whether cerebral cooling initiated within 6 hours of birth and continued for 72 hours would reduce the risk of death and moderate to severe neurodevelopmental injury at 18-22 months corrected age. Infants at least 36 weeks gestation with an abnormal blood gas within 1 hour of birth, or a history of an acute perinatal event and a 10-min Apgar score \<5, or continued need for ventilation were screened. Following a neurological exam, those with moderate to severe encephalopathy were randomized to a 72-hour period of total body cooling (cooling blanket, followed by slow re-warming). The study was conducted in two phases: Phase I (20 infants) were examined for the safety of an esophageal temperature of 34-35 C; Phase II (main trial, 200 infants) were evaluated for the safety and efficacy of an esophageal temperature of 33-34 C. Cardio-respiratory, electroencephalograms (EEGs), renal, metabolic, and hematologic status, and esophageal and abdominal skin temperature were monitored during the 72 hours of intervention. Surviving children were given neurodevelopmental examinations at 18-22 months corrected age and again at school age (6-7 years of age).
NCT01558791
This research study is designed to learn about Veterans' understanding of mild TBI (traumatic brain injury) and the VA TBI screening process. All OEF/OIF Veterans who come to one of the study-related clinics for TBI screening will be invited to participate. An educational handout on TBI will be given to half of the participants along with their TBI screening. The other half of the participants will have the usual TBI screening without the educational handout. Veterans enrolled in the study will be asked to answer a 5-10 minute research questionnaire. The questionnaire will ask: * About the individual: such as gender and branch of service * About what happened during the TBI screening: such as whether the Veteran had a chance to ask the provider any questions * About the Veteran's understanding of mild TBI: such as whether symptoms of mild TBI are long lasting Veterans who receive the educational handout will be asked specific questions about the handout and its information.
