NCT03814798
This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, open-label, 2-period cross-over study (16 weeks per treatment period) to evaluate flexible dosing and daily push dosing of IGSC 20% in treatment-experienced subjects with PI. An additional, separate cohort of treatment-naïve, non-randomized subjects who will not be part of the crossover are included and will receive a loading dose of 5 consecutive daily doses of IGSC 20% followed by weekly infusions of IGSC 20% starting Week 1 (Day 8) through Week 32 (end of Treatment Phase). For treatment-experienced subjects, the study consists of a Screening Visit, Baseline Visit, 16-week Treatment Period 1, 16-week Treatment Period 2, and Final Visit/Early Termination Visit. For treatment-naïve subjects, the study consists of a Screening Visit, a Baseline Visit, a 32-week Treatment Phase, and Final Visit/Early Termination Visit. Approximately 54 treatment-experienced subjects and approximately 6 treatment-naïve subjects will be enrolled at study centers in the United States (US) and European Union (EU).
NCT03454087
This study is a prospective single-center randomized double-blinded placebo-controlled clinical trial testing the effects of early enteral dextrose as a therapeutic agent in critically ill patients with sepsis. Primary outcomes are differences in circulating plasma levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 to be tested 24 hours after the start of enteral infusion. Secondary outcomes include differences in circulating incretin hormone levels, differences in other pro-inflammatory cytokines including IL-1β and TNF-α, changes in intestinal microbial composition and function after intervention, glycemic control and variability as assessed by capillary blood glucose measurements and exogenous insulin dosing during the intervention period, and clinical outcomes including intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital stay and in-hospital mortality.
NCT02988115
The purpose of this study is to determine if bempedoic acid (ETC-1002) is effective and safe versus placebo in patients with elevated LDL cholesterol and who are statin-intolerant.
NCT02638935
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate if VTIQ in addition to BI-RADS® categorization can improve the diagnostic accuracy with respect to detection of malignancies, in particular for BI-RADS® categories 3 and 4a. The idea of the study is to restage all patients in categories 3 and 4a according to a predefined VTIQ cut-off value of ≥ 3.5 m/s (37 kPa).
NCT03705013
The primary endpoint is to obtain longitudinal information on four sub-populations from the Cologuard Post-Approval Study.
NCT02629133
This study developed and assessed an innovative, high-reach, easily implementable, low-cost computer-delivered intervention (Safe and Healthy Experiences; The SHE Program) that addresses known barriers in early identification and intervention with sheltered battered women with IPV (intimate partner violence) and substance use.
NCT04342403
Evaluate change of quality of life of sarcoiodosis patients over a six months using various quality of life instruments including a monthly smart phone app.
NCT01829711
Background: \- Moxetumomab pasudotox is an experimental non-chemotherapy cancer treatment drug. It targets CD22, a molecule on the surface of essentially all hairy cell leukemia cells. Moxetumomab pasudotox binds to CD22, goes into the cell, and releases a toxin which kills the cell. In a phase I trial it had activity in relapsed/refractory hairy cell leukemia with safety profile supporting further clinical study (http://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22355053). This is a phase III multicenter trial designed to confirm these results.
NCT02397694
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of bictegravir (BIC) + emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (F/TAF) fixed dose combination (FDC) versus dolutegravir (DTG) + F/TAF in HIV-1 Infected, antiretroviral treatment-naive adults. This study will also evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of BIC, emtricitabine and TAF.
NCT00003892
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ISIS 5132 in treating patients who have metastatic or recurrent ovarian cancer that has not responded to previous chemotherapy.
NCT00002807
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. It is not yet known whether radiation therapy is more effective than observation only after sugery in treating endometrial cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying radiation therapy to see how well it works compared to observation only in treating patients with stage I or stage II endometrial cancer who have undergone hysterectomy and oophorectomy.
NCT00774137
People who undergo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or heart valve surgery may experience acute kidney injury (AKI) after their surgery. Current medical tests cannot identify AKI until approximately 48 hours after it occurs. This study will examine three new biomarkers in blood and urine that may provide a more effective and faster way of predicting AKI in people who undergo CABG or heart valve surgery.
NCT02384460
The aim was to assess the efficacy and safety of SD-101-6.0 cream versus Placebo (SD-101-0.0) cream in the treatment of skin lesions in participants with Epidermolysis Bullosa. Funding Source - United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD).
NCT00006229
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known whether paclitaxel and carboplatin are more effective with or without BMS-275291 for non-small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II/III trial to compare the effectiveness of paclitaxel and carboplatin with or without BMS-275291 in treating patients who have advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT02470806
The aim of this study is to compare the clinical efficacy of two types of NPWT systems; the traditional negative pressure wound therapy (tNPWT) system and the single-use negative pressure wound therapy (PICO) system.
NCT02961764
This study will evaluate a new critical pathway (use of guideline-based patient identification criteria and for those who meet these criteria, use of dalbavancin) for the treatment of ABSSSI compared to usual care.
NCT01848249
Compared to chronic dialysis, kidney transplantation provides recipients with longer survival and better quality of life at a lower cost. In order to meet increasing demands for kidney allografts, kidneys from older and sicker donors are being procured. This has led to greater discard rates of donated kidneys as well as more complications for recipients, including shorter allograft survival. Available clinical models to predict kidney allograft quality have poor prognostic ability and do not asses the degree of kidney allograft injury. However, allograft injury near the time of procurement can lead to major consequences for the transplant recipient: greater risks of delayed graft function, poor allograft function and premature loss of the transplant. Our proposal is based on the hypotheses that novel biomarkers measured in donor urine and transport media at the time of procurement can assess acute and chronic kidney injury and that distinct biomarker patterns will predict allograft survival. In collaboration with five organ procurement organizations, we will collect urine samples from consecutive deceased donors and samples of transport solution for every pumped kidney. We will measure markers of injury, repair, inflammation and fibrosis. We will determine mortality and allograft survival in all patients by linkage to the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) database (Overall Cohort). Additionally, we will perform a detailed chart review of a subset of recipients (detailed cohort) and will also examine associations between biomarkers and longitudinal graft function over five years after transplant. Early, non-invasive and rapid assessment of donor kidney injury could drive better allocation decisions and potentially reduce the rates of post-transplant complications. Further, these new tools could provide a platform for clinical trials of therapies for allografts and kidney transplant recipients aimed at ameliorating allograft injury.
