NCT00054795
The primary purpose of the study is to determine if patients with brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer treated with Motexafin Gadolinium and whole brain radiation therapy retain their neurologic function and ability to think for a longer time compared to patients treated with whole brain radiation therapy alone.
NCT00039910
Intensive chemotherapy is associated with significant thrombocytopenia, often requiring platelet transfusion to maintain platelet counts. This investigational drug has been demonstrated to increase platelet counts. This study will test the safety and efficacy of the investigational drug in the prevention of thrombocytopenia in patients with recurrent or refractory intermediate-grade or high-grade non-Burkitt's, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), or Hodgkin's disease receiving DHAP (Dexamethasone, high-dose Cytarabine, and Cisplatin) chemotherapy.
NCT00243204
This Phase 3 study will compare the efficacy of talabostat plus docetaxel to docetaxel plus placebo in patients with Stage IIIB/IV NSCLC who have failed a platinum-based chemotherapy regimen.
NCT00290017
This Phase 3 study will compare the efficacy of talabostat plus pemetrexed to pemetrexed plus placebo in patients with Stage IIIB/IV NSCLC who have failed a platinum-based chemotherapy regimen.
NCT00327691
The primary objective of this study is to determine the degree of additional reduction in cardiovascular risk that was accrued to patients by lowering their LDL-C beyond the currently accepted minimum target level for patients with pre-existing CHD. Secondary objectives include the safety profile of this treatment strategy, its cost-effectiveness, effect on other atherosclerotic-related events and procedures, and total mortality.
NCT00462189
RATIONALE: The CAT-8015 immunotoxin can bind tumor cells and kill them without harming normal cells. This may be an effective treatment for hairy cell leukemia(HCL) that has not responded to chemotherapy, surgery or radiation therapy. PURPOSE: Phase I dose escalation study to determine the maximum tolerated dose of CAT-8015 immunotoxin in treating patients who have hairy cell leukemia (HCL) that has not responded to treatment.
NCT00457860
RATIONALE: The CAT-8015 immunotoxin can bind tumor cells and kill them without harming normal cells. This may be an effective treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), prolymphocytic leukemia (PLL), or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL that has not responded to chemotherapy, surgery or radiation therapy. PURPOSE: Phase I dose escalation study to determine the maximum tolerated dose of CAT-8015 immunotoxin in treating patients who have chronic lymphocytic leukemia, prolymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma that has not responded to treatment
NCT00482781
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between receipt of DTaP and the occurrence of prolonged episodes of apnea and bradycardia in preterm infants, while employing a random control study design and an objective assessment of cardiorespiratory events.
NCT00150228
The purpose of the study was to measure the safety and efficacy of a 12-week flexible dosing strategy of CP-526,555 compared with placebo for smoking cessation. Post-treatment follow-up of smoking status to one year from randomization was performed in a non-treatment extension Protocol A3051019
NCT00244322
The purposes of this study are to determine: * The safety of LY450139 dihydrate and any side effects that might be associated with it. * How much LY450139 dihydrate should be given and how long it may be detected in blood. * To determine if LY450139 dihydrate may have an effect on a protein found in blood, called A beta. This protein is studied in subjects with Alzheimer's disease. * To collect and store samples from blood and spinal fluid for research related to Alzheimer's disease and similar (neurodegenerative) diseases or inflammation (irritation) that may provide information on how subjects respond to LY450139 or other medications. Length of study: Approximately 29 weeks. Number of office visits: 11 for most subjects: initial visit, every other week during 14 weeks of study drug treatment, and 2 follow-up visits. At no cost, approximately 45 eligible participants will receive: * Study medication * Study-related diagnostic and laboratory evaluations
NCT00054886
The primary goal of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of SU-011,248 as a treatment for metastatic kidney cancer.
NCT00012558
A long-term study of current treatments for bipolar disorder, including medications and psychosocial therapies.
NCT00051051
CI-1033 is an experimental drug that acts as an inhibitor of erbB (EGFR) receptors, which may be involved in tumor growth. The primary objective of this study is to assess the antitumor activity of CI-1033 in patients with metastatic breast cancer. Patients with histologically confirmed metastatic (Stage IV) breast cancer and who have received no more than 2 prior cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens are eligible for this study. CI-1033 is administered orally. Patients are required to have blood tests periodically while receiving treatment and will be closely monitored throughout the study for possible side effects and response to treatment. Patients may not have received any prior treatment with other agents that target erbB receptors, including Herceptin (trastuzumab) or Iressa (gefitinib).
NCT00190879
To investigate the effect of atomoxetine hydrochloride in treating adults who have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder with comorbid social anxiety disorder
NCT00192439
\- Estimate the incidence rate of hMPV infection detected by RT-PCR from frozen nasal wash aspirates in children at high risk for severe LRI disease (hospitalized at \<2 years of age).
NCT00143364
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of varenicline given for a twelve week treatment period in comparison with placebo and Zyban for smoking cessation.
NCT00120224
This study will investigate the possibility that medical abortion using mifepristone and misoprostol - a safe, proven therapy for terminating early first trimester pregnancy - can be administered in a manner that is simpler and less costly than that routinely employed in the United States. The researchers hypothesize that: 1. Practitioners themselves, based on history and examination but without sonography, are able to dependably and correctly determine which patients are eligible for medical abortion and which patients either are not eligible or require further evaluation to determine eligibility. 2. Practitioners themselves, based on a symptom diary and low-sensitivity pregnancy test but without sonography, are able to dependably and correctly determine when a successful medical abortion has taken place and when referral for other possible outcomes should be made. 3. A symptom diary and low-sensitivity pregnancy test are safe and effective means of separating those women who could benefit from a follow-up visit from those who do not need one.
NCT00385385
The objective of this study is to evaluate an antibiotic therapy called Rifalazil to determine its effect on hardening of the carotid arteries.
NCT00066885
This Phase 1/2 clinical trial is a multi-center, open-label study with three main objectives. The first (Phase 1A) is to determine the maximum-tolerated dose of DN-101 when administered in combination with Taxotere (docetaxel) every three weeks (closed). The second is to determine the maximum-tolerated dose of DN-101 when administered weekly in combination with Taxotere(docetaxel)devery three weeks (open). The third is to evaluate the safety and objective tumor response rate of the combination in NSCLC. DN-101 doses will be escalated at three dosing levels. Patients will receive oral DN-101 on day one, followed by intravenous docetaxel on day two of a 21-day cycle. Treatment cycles will be repeated at the same dose level each 21 days until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
NCT00086021
