NCT00340548
Background: Over 80% of the hemophiliac population who became infected with HIV prior to 1985 are also co-infected with HCV. Thus, hemophiliacs represent an important population for studies of the natural history of these chronic viral infections. Moreover, the high rate of co-infection makes it an ideal group for assessing the interaction between the viruses and the relationship between viral specific immune responses and clinical progression. Although the hemophiliac poulation is unique, co-infection by these chronic viral pathogens is becoming increasingly common, particularly amongst intravenous drug users, who account for approximately 25% of the HIV-1 epidemic in the United States. Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine if polymorphism in the promoter region of TH1 and Th2 cytokines are associated with (1) intracellular cytokines levels in CD4 + Tcells, (2) Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) viral loads, and (3) clinical progression of HIV1 to AIDS in hemophiliacs. Eligibility: The current proposal will investigate host genetic factors related to HIV-1 and HCV immunopathogenesis by studying children and adolescents enrolled in the Hemophilia Growth and Development Study (HGDS). Design: This study is in collaboration with the principle investigators of the Hemophilia Growth and Development Study (HGDS) as part of a grant "Pathogenesis of HIV and HCV in Hemophilia: HGDS-3" with funding support by NIH/NICHD for the period 9/25/01 through 8/31/2005. This multicenter, United States study represents a well-characterized, prospectively followed cohort of HCV-infected hemophiliacs, of whom 207 are HIV-1 co-infected. Enrollment of the hemophiliac cohort was completed between 3/89 and 6/90. The final observation of the cohort (follow-up 16) was concluded during 7/98. No new samples or clinical data will be collected on this population. The LGD plays two roles in this project: (1) an administrative role overseeing the withdrawal, handling, and transport of samples from the HGDS/LGD and central repositories at the NCI-Frederick, and (2) a scientific role continuing investigations to determine the role of host genetic factors in Th1 and Th2 immune response and regulation of HCV and HIV viral replication..

NCT02556203

To assess the primary bleeding events (PBE) of the rivaroxaban-based strategy compared to an antiplatelet-based strategy, following TAVR.

NCT01110733
Prospective, longitudinal, multinational, observational study that will collect data on how patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) are treated in academic and community practices.
NCT02574390
Creation of a large repository of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), bio-fluid samples (blood and spinal fluid (optional)), and cell lines for ALS gene identification. This will be combined carefully with collected measures of the pattern of the symptoms people with ALS have and how these change over time. People with other motor neuron diseases and healthy controls will be included as comparisons
NCT02833948
The aortic valve is located between the left ventricle and the aorta. Patients with symptomatic, severe aortic valve stenosis conventionally have it surgically replaced requiring direct access to the heart through the chest. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is now a well-established alternative for treating severe aortic valve stenosis. Both types of intervention improve prognosis and alleviate symptoms. The optimal choice of blood thinning therapy after TAVR is unknown. It has been reported that leaflet thrombosis with reduced leaflet motion can occur and this phenomenon has been suggested to be potentially related with neurological events. In addition, the occurence of this phenomenon can be reduced with anticoagulation blood thinning therapy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if anticoagulation compared to the usual double platelet inhibitor therapy after TAVR can reduce the risk of leaflet thrombosis.
NCT02081391
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of tapentadol oral solution, based on the total amount of supplemental opioid analgesic used over 12 hours or 24 hours after initiation of investigational medicinal product (IMP) in children and adolescents who had undergone surgery that would produce moderate to severe pain during opioid treatment.
NCT03710707
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of multiple oral doses of DNL201 in subjects with Parkinson's disease.
NCT03036878
To evaluate the use of ReNu™ allograft for the augmentation of marrow stimulation for osteochondral lesions
NCT02904096
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of Radiesse implantation for very severe volume loss in the dorsum of the hand at 6 months after treatment.
NCT02844985
The study is intended to identify gene polymorphisms significantly associated with specific behavioral- and preoccupation-typologies of sexual addiction, and to identify additional potential genetic markers of sexual addiction. Research subjects with sexual addiction will be identified from the out-patient and in-patient populations of the investigative sites. Research subjects in the Control Group will be identified from the general population and from the student body of selected colleges. Approximately 1100 subjects will be enrolled in the study. Anticipating 10% drop-out, this is intended to generate a population of approximately 500 men and women clinically diagnosed with sexual addiction, and approximately 500 healthy men and women who do not meet diagnostic criteria for sexual addiction nor have psychopathology who will serve as the control population.

NCT01183689
The Study of Novel Approaches for Prevention (SNAP) is randomized trial designed to test whether behavioral interventions based on self-regulation can prevent weight gain in young adults (18-35 years; body mass index (BMI) 21-30 kg/m2). Two different self-regulation interventions for weight gain prevention will be compared in this trial; one intervention will focus on making small, consistent, changes in eating and exercise behavior to prevent weight gain or reverse weight gain if it occurs, whereas the other will emphasize larger changes in eating and exercise that occur periodically, with a goal of producing weight loss and thereby providing a buffer against anticipated weight gains. The primary aim of the trial is to test whether the magnitude of weight gain from baseline across an average three-year follow-up differs across the three groups, with the hypotheses that weight gain will be greater in the Control group than in either intervention and greater in the Small Changes than Large Changes group. SNAP-E (Extension) will determine whether the effects of the intervention can be maintained over an additional 3 years (i.e. through a total of 6 years).
