NCT01633060
This study was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III study to determine the efficacy and safety of treatment with Buparlisib plus Fulvestrant vs. Placebo plus Fulvestrant in postmenopausal women with hormone Receptor-positive (HR-positive), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-negative), aromatase inhibitor (AI)-treated, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer whose disease progressed on or after mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor (mTORi)-based treatment. Patients were randomized in 2:1 ratio to treatment with buparlisib 100 mg daily in combination with fulvestrant 500 mg or placebo daily in combination with fulvestrant 500 mg. Randomization was stratified according to visceral disease status (present or absent).
NCT00787501
Our goals are 1) to use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to predict which depressed individuals will respond to different validated treatments for unipolar depression including Cognitive Therapy (CT) and antidepressant medications (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors; SSRIs) and 2) to understand whether CT and SSRIs affect similar aspects of brain function underlying cognition and emotion. Thus, we will examine depressed adults ages 18-55 using fMRI during cognitive and emotional information processing tasks, before and after treatment with an SSRI (n=25) or CT (n=40). We hypothesize that: 1) Recovery will occur in treatment with an SSRI primarily for individuals with increased reactivity in limbic brain regions associated with emotion generation and prefrontal regions associated with regulation,. 2) Recovery with CT will occur for patients with increased activity in brain regions associated with emotion generation but decreased activity in prefrontal regions associated with emotion regulation. 3) Recovery with an SSRI will yield similar changes in brain function to CT in brain regions associated with emotion generation but less change in brain regions responsible for emotion regulation such as the prefrontal cortex. Findings from this study may have a profound impact on reducing the burden of clinical depression by providing evidenced-based diagnostic and treatment guidelines.

The secondary objective is to evaluate the proportion of survivors at Study Day 91 using a chi-squared test.
NCT03547297
This study will use specific diagnostic tests on a group of patients who are experiencing symptoms typical of acute hepatic porphyria (AHP) to determine how many have the condition, and to potentially help improve the diagnostic process for patients in the future.
NCT01305525
This is a prospective non-interventional 24 month post implant registry. Any patient that receives a St. Jude Medical FDA approved implantable neuromodulation system is eligible for enrollment. A minimum of 600 patients will be enrolled from a minimum of 30 sites. Patients will be enrolled post-implant and followed for 24 months. Data are collected at enrollment (within 30 days of device implant), and routine care follow-up visits at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months.
NCT02670551
This study investigates the efficacy of a fixed-dose regimen of cariprazine 1.5 milligram (mg)/day or 3 mg/day compared to placebo for treatment of the depressive episode in participants with bipolar I disorder. The safety and tolerability of the fixed-dose regimens will be evaluated.
NCT01819129
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe and North America. The aim of the trial is to compare FIAsp (faster-acting insulin aspart) to insulin aspart, both in combination with insulin glargine and metformin in adults with type 2 diabetes.
NCT00489255
The purposes of the study are to determine: i. To assess the efficacy of Tigan® (trimethobenzamide) in preventing nausea and vomiting when initiating therapy with Apokyn® (apomorphine) ii. To determine the optimal duration for continuation of Tigan® following initiation of Apokyn® therapy iii. To assess the safety of Tigan® in combination with Apokyn® iv. To characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of apomorphine in subjects treated concomitantly with and without Tigan®
NCT01835249
Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and renal disease, and a leading cause of premature mortality worldwide. Early hypertension studies showed that treating elevated blood pressure (BP) reduces patients' risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. In subsequent research, patients achieved greater improvement in cardiovascular outcomes when their treatment was aimed at a moderate systolic BP target (\<150mmHg) than at higher targets. Although observational data suggest that even lower BP targets may be beneficial, this has not been seen in randomized trials; instead, "intense" treatment of hypertension (i.e., to a target systolic BP \<120mmHg) was found to have no effect on participants' risk for renal disease, cardiovascular disease, or all-cause mortality. One potential explanation for this apparent lack of benefit of intense BP targets is that the study protocols targeted reductions in clinic BP rather than ambulatory BP. Ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) allows for assessment of BP throughout the day and night. Of all the BP measurements, nighttime systolic BP appears to be the best predictor of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. Because recent trials assessing intense BP targets did not include ambulatory BP measurements, the effect of intensive treatment on nighttime BP is largely unknown. To address this important gap in knowledge, we will conduct ABPM in 600 participants as part of an ancillary study to the ongoing Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT). The goal of the ancillary study is to evaluate the effect of intensive vs. standard clinic based BP targets on nighttime BP (primary outcome), as well as night/day BP ratio, timing of peak BP, 24hr BP, and BP variability (secondary outcomes). The SPRINT trial includes approximately 9250 participants at high risk for cardiovascular disease. The investigators hypothesize that intense targeting of clinic systolic BP does not lower nighttime systolic BP compared to a standard target.
NCT02096198
This study is intended to gather medium (5- to 7-years) and long-term (minimum 8- to 10-years) information regarding the performance and safety of the commercially available 36mm CERAMAX® Ceramic on Ceramic (COC) Total Hip System from a cohort of study subjects that were previously enrolled in the IDE study. (COC = 36mm ceramic acetabular bearing insert component that articulates with a ceramic femoral head in the COC total hip replacement system)

NCT00121225
This phase II trial is studying how well vorinostat works in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable melanoma. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
NCT00302718
The purpose of this study was to determine whether financial incentives for guideline-recommended treatment of hypertension are effective. We hypothesized that patients with hypertension cared for by physicians or practice groups receiving financial incentives were more likely to be prescribed guideline-recommended anti-hypertensive medications and achieve Joint National Commission (JNC) 7 guideline-recommended blood pressure goals compared to patients who were treated by providers that did not receive financial incentives.
