NCT01471028
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of ELAD® with respect to overall survival (OS) of subjects with a clinical diagnosis of alcohol-induced liver decompensation (AILD) up to at least Study Day 91, with follow-up Protocol VTI-208E providing additional survival data up to a maximum of 5 years that will be included, as available, through VTI-208 study termination (after the last surviving enrolled subject completes Study Day 91). Secondary objectives are to determine the proportion of survivors at Study Days 28 and 91. Exploratory objectives are to evaluate the ability of ELAD to stabilize liver function, measured using the Model for End Stage Liver Disease (MELD)-based time to progression (TTP) up to Study Day 91, and the proportion of progression-free survivors (PFS) up to Study Days 28 and 91. Progression is defined as death or the first observed increase of at least 5 points from End of Study Day 1 MELD score (for both the ELAD and Control groups) until at least 24 hours after the ELAD Treatment Period is ended (end of Day 7 for Controls) and up to both End of Study Days 28 and 91 following Randomization.
NCT00284453
The purpose of the proposed pilot study is to identify factors which are associated with periods of high ventricular arrhythmia burden. This will be performed by analysis of gene expression from peripheral blood samples.
NCT02099760
The purpose of this study is to validate Xpert CT/NG for the detection of CT and GC in rectal samples as part of the PA DOH and CLIA requirements. The evaluation of samples obtained from the pharynx is exploratory and will provide new information on the frequency of pharyngeal infection due to CT and GC. A secondary objective will be to evaluate the prevalence of Trichomonas vaginalis in vaginal and rectal samples using both the Xpert system and AC2 to assess whether women positive for this pathogen rectally usually or always have vaginal infection due to this pathogen. The investigators hypothesis is that real-time PCR (polymerase chain reaction) amplification testing with the Cepheid Xpert CT/NG will have greater sensitivity than culture in detecting Neisseria gonorrhoeae in rectal samples. The investigators also hypothesize that Xpert CT/NG will be equivalent to the Gen-Probe APTIMA Combo2 (AC2) in detecting Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae in rectal samples.
NCT02679690
Develop an evidence-based intervention aimed at patients with heart failure (HF) using color-coded cue cards to assist in the selection of foods appropriate to their sodium restricted diet. The milligram per serving sodium content of foods will be assigned color-coded green/yellow/red designation according to very low/moderate/high as identified by the United States Food and Drug Administration's definitions of sodium content. Assess patient knowledge of foods with sodium content appropriate for consumption on a low sodium diet before implementation of the intervention by calculating average milligrams of sodium per serving via choices made through simulated grocery store shopping. Evaluate application of patient knowledge about low-sodium food choices using a simulated grocery store shopping intervention by calculating average milligrams of sodium per serving via choices made using the color-coded card.
NCT02320149
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of an approximate 1.5mg/kg/day dose of oral sarecycline compared to placebo in the treatment of moderate to severe facial acne vulgaris
NCT01523587
This randomised, open-label phase III trial will be performed in patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the lung requiring second-line treatment after receiving first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. The primary objective of this trial is to compare the efficacy of BIBW 2992 to erlotinib as second-line treatment in this group of patients.
NCT01376349
RATIONALE: Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) may help relieve vaginal symptoms in female cancer survivors. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial studies DHEA to see how well it works compared to placebo in treating postmenopausal cancer survivors with vaginal symptoms.
NCT01875874
This phase 2 study is developed to evaluate the effect of ELAD on overall survival (OS) in subjects with acute liver failure (ALF) compared to matched historical controls.
NCT02130765
To demonstrate that scar-based ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation using the FlexAbility™ ablation catheter system results in a superior clinical outcome compared to routine drug therapy in subjects with documented Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia \[MMVT\] (both ischemic and non-ischemic) while maintaining an acceptable safety profile.
NCT03537248
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ASP-57 Multi-Purpose contact lens solution (Test) compared to ReNu® Multiplus Contact Lens Solution (Control) when used by habitual contact lens wearers to bilaterally clean and disinfect their contact lenses for approximately 3 months (12 weeks).
NCT00252564
The purpose of this study is to compare the rates of Progression-Free Survival (PFS) at 12 months for patients treated with Bev-FOLFOX versus patients treated with FOLF-CB for first line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer.
NCT03504761
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of the ClariCore System in obtaining prostate biopsies with device feedback that provides real-time tissue classification.
NCT00095589
RATIONALE: New diagnostic procedures such as microsatellite analysis of sediment in the urine may improve the ability to detect bladder cancer without invasive procedures. PURPOSE: Diagnostic trial to study the effectiveness of microsatellite analysis of sediment in the urine in detecting bladder cancer in healthy participants, participants who have genitourinary conditions requiring cystoscopy, and patients who have bladder cancer.
NCT03448081
A Phase 2 study evaluating safety, tolerability, and efficacy of SNA-120 ointment when administered topically with calcipotriene ointment for the treatment of pruritus and psoriasis.
NCT00728936
First-in-humans, phase 1, dose-escalation study with 4 dose levels of single-agent IMO-2125.
NCT00697632
In this study, MGCD265, a new anticancer drug under investigation, is given daily to patients with advanced malignancies to study its safety profile.
NCT03202992
This study evaluates the use of ABI-1968, a topical cream, in the treatment of anal precancerous lesions in adults with and without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
NCT03143517
The primary objective is to obtain stool samples from subjects diagnosed with , and displaying signs and/or symptoms of IBD and/or IBS will be evaluated in this study. Eligible subjects require a diagnostic colonoscopy with possible biopsy and clinical evaluation.
NCT02216409
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of Hu5F9-G4 in participants with solid tumors.
NCT03011320
This study looks to enroll subjects with ovarian cancer who will be having standard of care surgery to remove ovarian cancer tumors. The main aim of this study is to be able to observe how EC1456 has been taken in and broken down inside tumors. The effect of EC1456 on the tumor will also be studied. This study will also help us compare the amount of EC1456 seen in tumors and how the tumors are imaged by the 99mTc-etarfolatide single-photon emission tomography (SPECT) or single-photon emission tomography with in-line x-ray computed tomography (SPECT/CT). All subjects will undergo a 99mTc-etarfolatide SPECT or SPECT/CT scan within 2 weeks prior to EC1456 administration. Individual subjects will then receive 1 of the following 2 doses of EC1456 pre-operatively: * 4 mg/m2 * 8 mg/m2 EC1456 will be administered at 1 of the following 2 time points: * \<8 hours before planned surgery * 48±4 hours before planned surgery Blood will be collected for pharmacokinetic (PK) studies right after EC1456 dosing and again right before surgery. At the time of surgery, tumor samples will be removed and sent to Endocyte for analysis.
