NCT01471431
The objective of this study is to determine whether use of the spontaneous breathing trial allows for earlier successful extubation of very low birth weight (VLBW) infants who are intubated for \>48 hours and have not yet been successfully extubated (extubated \>7 days).
NCT00486668
The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether breast cancer tumors respond (as measured by pathologic complete response: the absence of microscopic evidence of invasive tumor cells in the breast) to combined chemotherapy of AC(doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide) followed by paclitaxel plus trastuzumab or lapatinib or both given before surgery to patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. Trastuzumab will also be given to all patients after surgery. The study will also evaluate the toxic effects of the chemotherapy combination, including effects on the heart, and will determine survival and progression-free survival 5 years after treatment. Also, the study will look at whether there are gene expression profiles in the tumor tissue that can predict pathologic complete response.
NCT01013324
There has not been any systemic therapy approved in the United States or in Europe for treating advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer (EC). This study will evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of XL147 in advanced or recurrent EC. Constitutively active phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K)/phosphatase and tensin homolog on chromosome 10 (PTEN) pathway signaling is common in EC and involved in the development and/or progression of the disease. PTEN deficiency and/or activating mutations/amplification in the PIK3CA gene that encodes the p110α catalytic subunit of PI3K have been frequently detected in EC patients. XL147 is a potent and highly selective inhibitor of the Class I PI3K family of lipid kinases. In addition, in vivo preclinical data have demonstrated that XL147 targets both proximal and distal signaling in the PI3K/PTEN pathway. Therefore, XL147 may have utility in the treatment of subjects with advanced or recurrent EC.
NCT00993018
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy, safety and tolerability of multiple doses of JNJ-42160443 when administered as a single, subcutaneous injection every 28 days to patients with diabetic painful neuropathy (a disease condition in diabetic patients that affects all peripheral nerves including pain fibers, motor neurons and the autonomic nervous system).
NCT01492426
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of BMS-790052 (Daclatasvir) and Telaprevir when given in combination with Peginterferon alfa-2a and Ribavirin in genotype 1b patients
NCT01495169
Tolerability, undertstanding of the action of the drug in the body, and understanding the effect of the drug in adolescent patients needing treatment with an antipsychotic medication
NCT01786668
This is the first study of oral tofacitinib in adults with active ankylosing spondylitis. It is designed to obtain information on the efficacy and safety of 3 different doses of tofacitinib.
NCT00574275
The main objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of aflibercept treatment by comparison to placebo in increasing the overall survival (OS) in participants with metastatic pancreatic cancer, treated with gemcitabine. The secondary objectives were to evaluate progression free survival, clinical benefit, overall response, safety and immunogenicity of aflibercept, in the two treatment arms (Arm 1: Aflibercept and Gemcitabine; Arm 2: Placebo and Gemcitabine). The study included an interim analysis of OS. In accordance with the study protocol, an interim analysis was performed for the purpose of futility and overwhelming efficacy. On the basis of the interim analysis, the Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) recommended that this study be terminated for futility based on predefined boundary rules.
NCT00299325
Primary objective: To assess the effect of rimonabant on visceral fat area over a period of 12 months when prescribed with a mild hypocaloric diet in abdominally obese patients with metabolic syndrome Secondary objectives: * To assess the effect of rimonabant over a period of 12 months on: * Liver fat content using CT scan (Computed Tomography scan) * Anthropometric measures (weight, waist circumference, body composition using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA)) * Lipid, lipoprotein profile * Glycemia, insulinemia and HbA1c * Adipokines, inflammatory and hemostatic markers * To evaluate the percentage of patients with metabolic syndrome at 12 months * To evaluate the safety and tolerability of rimonabant in these patients In four selected US sites the effect of rimonabant at 12 months will be also assessed on: * Basal lipolysis and insulin suppressed lipolysis (euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp). * Resting metabolic rate and substrate oxidation at rest using indirect calorimetry. * Adipose tissue histology and expression of genes involved in glucose and lipid metabolism (superficial adipose tissue biopsy).
NCT01290887
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety of reslizumab at a dosage of 3.0 mg/kg every 4 weeks for approximately 24 months in pediatric and adult patients with eosinophilic asthma as assessed by adverse events, physical examination findings, vital sign measurements, and concomitant medication usage throughout the study (every 4 weeks), clinical laboratory test results, and measurement of antidrug antibodies.
NCT02418494
This research trial studies health-related symptom questionnaires in measuring quality of life in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected participants treated with or monitored for anal lesions. Collecting information and symptoms from patients diagnosed with anal lesions may help reduce the risk of anal cancer.
NCT02159573
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate relapse activity, as measured by the proportion of participants relapsed at 12 months, in participants with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) who transition from Tysabri (BG00002) to Tecfidera (BG00012) in the real-world setting. The secondary objective is to further evaluate relapse activity, defined as annualized relapse rate (ARR), hospitalization and intravenous corticosteroid use, during the first year of Tecfidera treatment following transition from Tysabri treatment.

NCT01269645
The primary objective of this project is to examine the impact of providing cancer patients with audiovisual information about clinical trials on attitudes towards clinical trial participation. It is hypothesized that patients provided these materials will have more favorable attitudes toward clinical trial participation compared to patients not provided these materials. Participants will be randomized to either: (1) an intervention condition in which they will be asked to view a short video and read an accompanying brochure about clinical trials developed by the investigative team; or (2) a control condition in which they will be asked to read the National Cancer Institute's brochure entitled "Taking Part in Cancer Treatment Research Studies." Self-report data will be collected at two timepoints: 1) in person following study enrollment, but before receipt of material related to intervention assignment (baseline/Time 1), and 2) by telephone interview between 7 and 28 days following study enrollment (follow-up/Time 2). In addition, data will also be collected from medical records six weeks after study enrollment.
