NCT00571649
This study will evaluate if extended therapy with oral rivaroxaban can prevent blood clots in the leg and lung that can occur with patients hospitalized for acute medical illness, and compare these results with those of the standard enoxaparin dose and duration regimen. The safety of rivaroxaban will also be studied.

Participants will be randomized to receive either RoActemra/Actemra 162 mg subcutaneously weekly or placebo for 48 weeks. From Week 48 to Week 96, all participants will receive open-label RoActemra/Actemra 162 mg subcutaneously weekly. Anticipated time on study treatment is 96 weeks.
NCT00525148
The primary objective of this open-label, single arm Phase II trial is to explore the efficacy of BIBW 2992 defined by the objective response rate (CR, PR) as determined by RECIST criteria in patients with advanced NSCLC Stage IIIB or IV whose tumors harbor activating mutations within exon 18 to exon 21 of the EGFR receptor. Patients progressing or relapsing after one prior cytotoxic chemotherapy regimen as well as chemotherapy naïve patients (only in stage 2) will be allowed to enter into the trial.
NCT01105962
This is an observational research study whose purposes are to see: 1. if 40 Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy sessions at 1.5 atmospheres (HBOT 1.5) or more (60, or 80 HBOT's) help, worsen, or have no effect on subjects with chronic TBI/PCS (Traumatic Brain Injury/Post-Concussion Syndrome) and/or PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). 2. if improvements or worsening of symptoms can be recorded with computerized and written tests for memory and thinking, and with questionnaires about the subject's quality of life and health. 3. determine the long-term outcome of the treatment. 4. confirm, in large numbers of study participants at multiple sites nationwide, the strong positive results obtained in pilot studies
NCT00196313
This study is being conducted to evaluate the effects of treatment with Seasonique an extended-regimen oral contraceptive that utilizes low dose ethinyl estradiol during the typical hormone-free interval. Patients will receive 13 weeks of treatment with the option to extend blinded therapy for an additional 13 weeks. The overall study duration will be 6-9 months. Patients will be required to record menstrual pain in a daily diary.
NCT00006429
This is a trial to test whether treadmill training can be used to improve the "walking" of patients with partial spinal cord injury. While on the treadmill, patients will be partially supported through the use of a specially designed harness attached to an overhead lift (also called Body Weight Supported Treadmill Training, BWSTT). Patients who enroll in this study will be randomly assigned to either the experimental group, which receives 12 weeks of this specialized treadmill training with regular physical therapy, or to the control group, which receives 12 weeks regular physical therapy. The ability of the patients to "walk" will be measured before and after treatment as well as 6 and 12 months later, using standard tests that examine mobility independence and speed of ambulation. The trial takes place across five sites in the US and Canada. Patients eligible for this trial will have had a traumatic spinal cord injury within 8 weeks of trial entry.
NCT00264615
Pharmacokinetic (PK) study to characterize changes in serum concentrations in epilepsy patients when switching from LAMICTAL immediate-release to extended-release and vice versa.
NCT02084628
This is an open-label, multi-center study involving babies 0-2 months of age who have liver problems (pathology) and need to have their liver and possibly, the bile ducts imaged using magnetic resonance imaging and injection of a contrast agent (dye). This agent is called Eovist. It has been marketed since 2004 and used in many countries all over the world. The baby will have blood tests before and after the imaging is done to make sure that there are no unexpected findings before and after the imaging. Also 3 blood samples up to 8 hours after the injection will be obtained in order to measure how much of the dye is in the blood. The baby will have an intravenous line which can be used for the blood samples and will not need to be stick for the blood samples. Several radiologists will evaluate the images. The family doctor will be contacted to find out what was the diagnosis and treatment after the results of the MRI were known. Six months after the study, the parent(s)/legal guardian(s) will be contacted to make sure the that baby did not have any problems, especially with the skin, joints and eyes.
NCT01687257
This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy of combination therapy with sofosbuvir (SOF) plus ribavirin (RBV) for 48 weeks in adults with compensated and decompensated chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Approximately 50 adults will be randomized (1:1) to receive study drug for 48 weeks or take part in an untreated observational arm for the first 24 weeks followed by study drug for another 48 weeks.
NCT02078674
This is a randomized, observer-blinded, placebo-controlled trial in adults 18 to 64 years old. Randomization will be stratified by age (18 to 49 years and 50 to 64 years) and by prior influenza immunization within the past three months. Subjects 18 to 49 years of age will comprise \~67% of subjects in each treatment group, and the balance will comprise subjects 50 to 64 years. Each subject will receive two identical IM doses of test article at a 21-day interval (Day 0 and Day 21), in alternate deltoids. For each subject, study follow-up will span approximately 385 days total, or approximately 13 months from the first dose.
NCT01904773
This is a two-part, randomized, multi-center, blinded study in adolescents with Tourette's Disorder. There will be an up to 21-day screening period in which subject eligibility will be determined. In Part 1 of the study, the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of AZD5213 will be assessed during a 1- week period. In Part 2 of the study, the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of two doses (depending on tolerability in Part 1 of the study) of AZD5213 and placebo will be assessed through six consecutive four-week crossover periods. Each subject will receive both AZD5213 and placebo. A follow-up vist will take place at 14 (±) 7 days following the last dose of study drug.
NCT01474135
This is a double-masked, randomized, controlled study assessing the safety and ocular hypotensive efficacy of two AR 12286/travoprost fixed-dose combination products compared to Travatan® Z in patients with elevated intraocular pressure
NCT00463294
I. Main Research Question: * To compare the risks and benefits of Off-pump Coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) to On-pump CABG and to determine if one is better than the other. * The purpose of this pilot study is also to see the rate of recruitment with expertise-based randomization across different hospital settings. II. Small RCT studies and meta-analyses done so far have not been able to conclusively say which of the procedure is better. A large randomized study is required to establish the risks and benefits associated with both the off-pump and on-pump CABG surgical procedures. III. The study will look at which of the two techniques reduce major risks associated with CABG.
NCT00684229
This study will compare recurrence rates in patients with colorectal cancer who will be randomly assigned to epidural anesthesia/analgesia combined with general anesthesia or to general anesthesia followed by opioid analgesia.
NCT01342484
The main objective of this study is to identify the dose of linagliptin in paediatric patients. Other efficacy objectives include the comparison of the lowering effect of linagliptin low dose, high dose and placebo on the fasting plasma glucose (FPG) observed after 12 wk of treatment. Furthermore, the study will investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK), the pharmacodynamics (PD) and the PK/PD relationship of linagliptin in the paediatric population.
