NCT00342212
Background: * Good measures of physical activity are needed for studies correlating physical activity and the risk of developing certain diseases. * In preparation for use in a study of diseases and risk factors in Hispanic populations, NCI is evaluating a new model accelerometer to measure physical activity. An accelerometer is a small device worn on a belt at the waist that measures and records movement, capturing movement intensity and duration and associating it with clock-time. * The new accelerometer (ActiGraph GTIM) uses a different type of motion detector from that used in the previous model (ActiGraph 7164). Objective: To evaluate and compare the ActiGraph GTIM with the ActiGraph 7164 by collecting physical activity data using both models. Eligibility: Men and women 18-74 years of age. Design: Study participants wear both model accelerometers while they walk or jog around a track at several self-selected paces. Data from the two devices are compared.
NCT01134159
Multicenter, retrospective registry to collect 9-12 month follow-up data to evaluate major adverse cardiac events in patients whom have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention and received either Taxus Liberte or Xience V.
NCT00492284
The objective of this study is to determine if combination therapy (reduced-fluence Visudyne followed by Lucentis \[within 2 hours\] or either of two regimens of reduced-fluence Visudyne followed by Lucentis-Dexamethasone triple therapy \[within 2 hours\]) reduces retreatment rates compared with Lucentis monotherapy while maintaining similar vision outcomes and an acceptable safety profile.
NCT00171210
A 1-year randomized Phase III core trial (NCT00061750) using deferoxamine as the comparator was conducted to investigate the efficacy of deferasirox in regularly transfused patients with β-thalassemia 2 years of age and older. Patients who successfully completed this main trial may continue in this extension trial to receive chelation therapy with deferasirox for an additional 4 years. The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and long-term safety of deferasirox in regularly transfused patients with β-thalassemia 2 years of age and older.
NCT00249782
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ACZONE™ gel compared to placebo (inactive substance), MetroGel® and a combination of ACZONE™ gel and MetroGel® for the treatment of rosacea. ACZONE™ gel, 5% is a topical (applied to the skin) medication that is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of acne vulgaris in people 12 years and older. The use of ACZONE™ for the treatment of rosacea is investigational. An investigational use is one that is not approved by the FDA. Subjects will apply the study treatment for 12 weeks. Efficacy assessments will be performed at baseline and Weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12. Laboratory assessments will be conducted at baseline and Week, 2, 4 and 12.
NCT00326911
Eligible patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer will be treated with dual agent monoclonal antibody consisting of cetuximab and bevacizumab alone or in combination with gemcitabine
NCT01316484
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate how patients with gastroparesis interpret the instructions, item content, and response options of a daily diary questionnaire designed to assess the key symptoms of gastroparesis.
NCT00942994
The purpose of the study is to compare the combination of aliskiren, amlodipine and Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) versus the combination of aliskiren and amlodipine as therapy in minority Stage 2 hypertensive patients.
NCT00705575
This study will compare the efficacy and safety of once daily dosing of aliskiren monotherapy to once daily dosing of aliskiren and hydrochlorothiazide combination therapy in patients with Stage II hypertension over a period of 12 weeks.
NCT00975455
The purpose of the study is to evaluate subjects with gross or microscopic hematuria undergoing scheduled cystoscopy to determine the absence or presence of bladder cancer.
NCT00650637
The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of calcium carbonate for the prevention of nelfinavir-associated diarrhea and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of calcium carbonate in combination with loperamide for the treatment of nelfinavir-associated diarrhea.
NCT00024557
IL13-PE38QQR is an oncology drug product consisting of IL13 (interleukin-13) and PE38QQR (a bacteria toxin). IL3-PE38QQR is a protein that exhibits cell killing activity against a variety of IL13 receptor-positive tumor cell lines indicating that it may show a therapeutic benefit. In reciprocal competition experiments, the interaction between IL13-PE38QQR and the IL13 receptors was shown to be highly specific for human glioma cells. Patients will receive IL13-PE38QQR via a catheter placed directly into the brain tumor. Tumor recurrence will be confirmed by biopsy. The next day, patients will start a continuous 48-hour infusion of IL13-PE38QQR into the tumor. The dose (concentration) will be increased in the pre-resection infusion until the endpoint is reached (histologic evidence of tumor cytotoxicity or a maximum tolerated dose). Tumor resection will be planned for one week after biopsy, plus or minus 1 day. A histologically-effective concentration (HEC) will be determined using pathologic observations. At the end of resection, three catheters will be placed in brain tissue next to the resection site and assessed within 24 hours using MRI. On the second day after surgery, IL13-PE38QQR infusion will begin and will continue for 4 days. The lowest pre-resection IL13-PE38QQR concentration will be used as the starting dose for post-resection infusions. After an HEC or maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined, the pre-resection infusion will no longer be administered. Subsequent patients will have tumor resection and placement of three peri-tumoral catheters at study entry. IL13-PE38QQR will be infused starting on the second day after surgery and continuing for 4 days. Escalation of the post-resection IL13-PE38QQR concentration will be continued until the previously-defined HEC or MTD is reached, after which duration of the post-resection infusion will be increased in one day increments for up to 6 days. If a post-resection MTD is obtained, there will be no increase in duration of infusion. In the final stage of the study, catheters will be placed 2 days after tumor resection, and a 4-day IL13-PE38QQR infusion will begin the day after catheter placement. Patients will be observed clinically and radiographically for toxicity and duration of tumor control.
NCT00127517
The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients with advanced cancers who receive AVR118 solution for injection into the skin can achieve improvement in quality of life. Based on a study in patients with AIDS, possible benefits may include improved appetite and strength; weight gain; improved mood; and decreased fatigue. For the first three weeks, some patients receive AVR118, and others receive placebo (an injection expected to have no benefits). After three weeks, all patients will be offered the opportunity to take injections of AVR118.
