NCT00637247
The purpose of this study is to determine if imexon in combination with gemcitabine could improve overall survival as compared to gemcitabine alone in subjects with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other organs such as the liver or lungs. The study will also look at the safety of the combination as compared to gemcitabine alone. Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to either treatment and neither the participant or their doctors will know which treatment they will be receiving.

NCT01223261
The purposes of this study were: 1) to compare mortality and postoperative morbidities in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants who underwent initial laparotomy or drainage for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) or isolated intestinal perforation (IP); 2) to determine the ability to distinguish NEC from IP preoperatively and the importance of this distinction on outcome measures; and 3) to evaluate the association between extent of intestinal disease determined at operation and outcome measures. All ELBW infants born at participating NRN centers were screened for the presence of NEC or IP that was thought by the pediatric surgeon and neonatologist to require surgical intervention. Data were collected enrolled infants, including: intraoperative findings recorded by the surgeon and specific post-operative complications. Neurodevelopmental examinations were conducted on surviving infants at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT00005772
This large multicenter trial tested whether cerebral cooling initiated within 6 hours of birth and continued for 72 hours would reduce the risk of death and moderate to severe neurodevelopmental injury at 18-22 months corrected age. Infants at least 36 weeks gestation with an abnormal blood gas within 1 hour of birth, or a history of an acute perinatal event and a 10-min Apgar score \<5, or continued need for ventilation were screened. Following a neurological exam, those with moderate to severe encephalopathy were randomized to a 72-hour period of total body cooling (cooling blanket, followed by slow re-warming). The study was conducted in two phases: Phase I (20 infants) were examined for the safety of an esophageal temperature of 34-35 C; Phase II (main trial, 200 infants) were evaluated for the safety and efficacy of an esophageal temperature of 33-34 C. Cardio-respiratory, electroencephalograms (EEGs), renal, metabolic, and hematologic status, and esophageal and abdominal skin temperature were monitored during the 72 hours of intervention. Surviving children were given neurodevelopmental examinations at 18-22 months corrected age and again at school age (6-7 years of age).
NCT00109525
This observational study evaluated the performance of new lab tests in detecting candida species fungal infections in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants quickly and accurately. 19 NICHD Neonatal Research Network sites enrolled 1,500 infants with birth weights ≤1,000g; 100 of these infants later tested positive for candidiasis. Blood, urine, and lumbar puncture samples were collected whenever other specimens were obtained from participants for cultures. These samples are being tested using the new methods and compared with standard culture results. Surviving study subjects completed a neurodevelopmental evaluation at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT02070978
This is a multicenter, double-blind, Phase 2b, long-term extension (LTE) to the ADDRESS II core trial (EMR 700461-023) (NCT01972568), to evaluate long-term safety and tolerability of atacicept in participants with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Participants who completed the 24-week core study ADDRESS II core study (NCT01972568) and thus not met any of the discontinuation criteria were invited to enter this long-term extension (LTE) study NCT02070978.
NCT02337062
A comparison of the efficacy of APD421 and placebo when combined with a standard anti-emetic in the prevention of PONV in patients at high risk of Post-operative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV).
NCT01383928
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) in phase 1 and to determine the combined response rate of clinical response CR and very good partial response (VGPR) in phase 2 of oral (PO) ixazomib administered twice-weekly in combination with lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone in a 21-day cycle in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDDM).
NCT01790295
The purpose of this study is to find out if giving the study drug Ruxolitinib (INC424) prior to a combination of other chemotherapeutic drugs (Fludarabine and Busulfan) before infusing another person's hematopoietic stem cells (bone marrow transplantation) will be successful in people who have advanced primary myelofibrosis (PMF), post-polycythemia vera myelofibrosis (PPV-MF) or post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (PET-MF), collectively known as myelofibrosis (MF). MF is a disorder in which bone marrow tissue develops in abnormal sites because the bone marrow itself undergoes fibrosis or scarring. This study plans to evaluate whether adding the drug Ruxolitinib will further aid in reducing pre-transplant spleen size, improve physical performance levels and reduce adverse events (side effects) related to the transplant. Ruxolitinib is a drug that is approved by the FDA for the treatment of patients with advanced forms of myelofibrosis. Using Ruxolitinib prior to stem cell transplantation is experimental.
NCT02301143
This clinical study is in subjects who are 18 years old or older with locally advanced pancreatic cancer who have not received prior treatment for their pancreatic cancer. The study treats all subjects with nab-Paclitaxel plus gemcitabine for approximately 6 months of treatment. Subjects who complete the treatment will choose, with their treating physicians, what additional treatment should be given: more nab-Paclitaxel plus gemcitabine, Chemoradiation therapy, or surgery to treat the locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
NCT02378480
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of omadacycline as compared to linezolid in the treatment of adults with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections.
NCT01142791
The objective of this Phase IV study is to evaluate the safety of the ExAblate treatment of uterine fibroids using the enhanced sonication techniques, based on the current commercially-approved treatment guidelines. Treatment may include up to 100% of individual fibroid volume, within established serosal and sacral treatment margins. The Enhanced sonication is one of the various sonication modes that may lead to increased thermal dose volume of each sonication without additional safety risks. This is an additional treatment tool available in the ExAblate system for the treatment of uterine fibroids. The safety profile of the Enhanced Sonication was investigated under an FDA-regulated IDE study. FDA granted approval of Enhanced Sonication with the requirement to perform a post-approval study to collect additional safety data when treating up to 100% of individual fibroid volume.
