NCT01621399
The purpose of this study is to determine if product 55394 is safe and efficacious for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis.
NCT00043927
This study will gather and compare data about the effectiveness and safety of two different treatments for extensive Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) in patients who have not received previous chemotherapy. One treatment will use an investigational drug in combination with an FDA approved chemotherapy. The other treatment will use a combination of two FDA approved chemotherapy drugs.
NCT00005977
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or acute lymphocytic leukemia.
NCT00906490
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the performance and safety of the intravenous blood glucose (IVBG) System relative to point of care (POC) meter performance when each method is compared to the Yellow Springs Instrument (YSI) under various conditions in the operating room (OR), ICU and general ward (GW) in subjects undergoing elective or non-emergent surgery as well as subjects admitted to the medical/surgical ICU. POC meter systems are currently used in the hospital environment to measure blood glucose values. The YSI is an accepted reference standard for assessing POC meter accuracy. The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of the IVBG System as compared with the YSI under various conditions in the operating room (OR), intensive care unit (ICU) and general ward (GW) in subjects undergoing elective or non-emergent surgery as well as subjects admitted to the medical/surgical ICU.
NCT00005609
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate cancer cells and deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of rituximab in treating patients who have Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia.
NCT00019422
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Lobradimil may increase the effectiveness of a chemotherapy drug by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of carboplatin and lobradimil in treating children with brain tumors that have not responded to previous treatment.
NCT01591668
Dose cohorts may be dosed with one of up to 4 possible total weekly doses (0.3 mg, 1 mg, 2 mg, 4 mg). Dose escalation or repetition will be governed by pre-specified safety and activity rules. Subjects will be confined on either days 1-3 and/or days 8-10. Follow-up visits are also required periodically through day 43. Study procedures involve taking blood samples for pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, virologic, and safety assessments.
NCT01408823
This study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics of antifibrinolytic drug epsilon-aminocaproic acid (EACA) in children undergoing Posterior spinal fusion surgery (PSF) at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) who receive EACA at the standard dose reported in the literature for this population and currently in use at CHOP.
NCT00411385
This is a phase 3, randomized, multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of albumin interferon alfa-2b (alb-IFN)in combination with ribavirin compared with peginterferon alfa-2a (PEGASYS or PEG-IFNa2a) in combination with ribavirin in subjects with chronic hepatitis C, genotype 2/3 who are IFNa treatment naive.
NCT01926756
This is a prospective randomized controlled trial to look into the reduction of catheter associated urinary tract infections in the postoperative period. It will specifically look at short gynecologic procedures such as D\&C (dilation and curettage), hysteroscopies and LEEP procedures and the need to perform intraoperative catheterization. If a patient urinates immediately before a short operation then there is no need to drain the bladder with a catheter during the procedure. The investigators hypothesize that eliminating catheterization during these short procedures may decrease postoperative urinary tract infections. The hope is that this study would provide evidence to support a change in practice.
NCT00552188
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of VIA-2291 as compared to placebo on vascular inflammation following 24 weeks of dosing.
NCT01226043
Primary Objective: To assess patient preference for Lantus SoloSTAR pen versus Lantus vial and syringe at the end of Crossover Phase (Week 4) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) Secondary Objectives: To compare Lantus SoloSTAR pen versus Lantus vial and syringe with regard to the following parameters: Randomization/Crossover phase: * Healthcare professional's (HCP) recommendation for Lantus SoloSTAR pen versus Lantus vial and syringe Re-randomization phase: * Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) from week 4 to week 10 * Percentage of patients achieving FPG\<110 mg/dL at week 10 * Change in Lantus dose injected per day (U) from week 4 to week 10 Observational phase: * Percentage of patients achieving glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) goal (\<7%) at week 40 * Time to first observation of HbA1c\<7% during the observational phase * Percentage of patients who discontinue Investigational Product (IP) during the observational phase due to dissatisfaction with their current device All phases: * Percentage of patients who discontinue IP during each phase of the study * Safety assessment such as occurrence of hypoglycemic events (HE) and adverse events (AE)
NCT00756977
This is a randomized, parallel, multi-center, single-blind study, comparing BLI850 to an FDA approved bowel preparation in adult subjects undergoing colonoscopy.
NCT00935961
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of RAD001 (everolimus) tablets at different dose levels, when added to docetaxel and cisplatin. The investigators want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, that everolimus has when added to docetaxel and cisplatin as treatment for head and neck cancer.
NCT00241826
The purpose of this study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (Gd-MRA) of the pulmonary arteries in combination with magnetic resonance venography (MRV) of the veins of the thighs in patients with clinically suspected acute pulmonary embolism (PE).
NCT00045916
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) administered with medication for the treatment of a major depressive episode (unipolar or bipolar) and will compare two types of ECT.
NCT00583830
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy (disease response) and safety of mapatumumab in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel as first line therapy in subjects with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
NCT01830322

The secondary outcome measures are: changes in CA 19-9, Quality of Life (QOL), Progression-Free Survival (PFS), and safety.
NCT01308424

NCT00227786
RATIONALE: Stop-smoking plans suggested by physicians may help patients quit smoking. Studying how physicians give stop-smoking treatment as family doctors may increase the chance of smokers receiving such treatment. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying physicians' practice patterns to see if regular feedback to the physician increases the chance of adult smokers receiving stop-smoking treatment.
