NCT00418600
Hectorol is a safe and effective treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in hemodialysis patients. Hectorol (doxercalciferol capsules) is indicated for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis and in pre-dialysis patients with Stage 3 or Stage 4 chronic kidney disease. Hectorol (doxercalciferol injection) is indicated for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis. This protocol will determine clinically appropriate doses of Hectorol (doxercalciferol capsules) when converting subject from Hectorol (doxercalciferol injection.) The study will enroll hemodialysis patients that have been controlled on intravenous Hectorol. the information gained from this study will be a useful guide for physicians in managing CKD Stage 5 patients for whom a change from intravenous to oral vitamin D administration is appropriate.
NCT00235300
A multicenter clinical study comparing event-free survival at 6 months after transplant between Thymoglobulin-treated and Simulect-treated adult kidney transplant patients. Patients received Thymoglobulin or Simulect from Day 0 through Day 4. Day 0 was considered the day of the transplant procedure. Subjects meeting all inclusion and exclusion criteria were eligible to participate in this study. The treatment assignment was random and not chosen by the subject or their physician. Subjects were monitored during treatment with Thymoglobulin and during the transplant hospitalization. Additional subject monitoring occurred up to 12 months after transplant. 278 study subjects were enrolled at 28 transplant centers in the United States and Europe.
NCT00951184
RATIONALE: Gathering information about depression in patients with cancer may help doctors learn more about the disease and plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying depression screening in patients undergoing radiation therapy for cancer.
NCT01714635
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the TECNIS Multifocal 1-Piece Intraocular Lens (IOLs), Models ZKB00 and ZLB00 which will each provide statistically better distance-corrected near visual acuity compared to the monofocal control lens. Complication and adverse event rates associated with each Multifocal IOL will be within the ISO SPE rate for posterior chamber IOLs.
NCT00324571
This is a randomized, open-label, parallel-design study to be conducted at 75 centers within the United States. The study will be described to hemodialysis patients. Informed consent will be obtained and the inclusion/exclusion criteria reviewed. Eligible patients will be randomized to receive either Renagel or a calcium-based binder. Starting from the randomization date, mortality data including survival, death date and cause of death (vital status information) and morbidity data including hospitalization date will be recorded for all patients. These data will be collected until the end of the study (December 31, 2004, ± 2 weeks). Patients completing or terminating from the study will return to the phosphate binder prescribed by their usual healthcare provider.
NCT00547521
To evaluate safety and immunogenicity of abatacept when used with or without methotrexate in the absence of an IV loading dose of abatacept
NCT00796666
As monotherapy for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) begins to fail additional therapies are introduced. Although co-administration of sitaxsentan and sildenafil is well tolerated the controlled safety/efficacy database of the combination is limited.
NCT00990054
The purpose of this research study is to determine if plerixafor can make cells more sensitive to killing by cytarabine and daunorubicin, an anti-cancer drug regimen referred to as "7+3" that is commonly used in treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In this study, plerixafor is used with treatments cytarabine and daunorubicin and with and without granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (GCSF). Subjects will be monitored to see how well they tolerate the use of these drugs together and how well they work to treat the leukemia. The purpose of the study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) per plerixafor dosing schedule (once daily \[QD\] or twice daily \[BID\]), and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), by assessing safety and tolerability of plerixafor (Mozobil®) when used in combination with cytarabine and daunorubicin, and with and without granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF)
NCT00068770
RATIONALE: Celecoxib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. It is not yet known whether the effectiveness of celecoxib in treating glioblastoma multiforme is decreased in patients who are receiving anticonvulsant drugs and undergoing radiation therapy. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of celecoxib in treating patients who are receiving anticonvulsant drugs and undergoing radiation therapy for newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme.
NCT00959413
The mouth may play an important part in monitoring HIV progression. Mucosal lesions of the mouth are often the first sign of infection and their development in already diagnosed individuals indicates disease progression. In addition, saliva may provide a non-invasive way to track viral load. The purpose of this study is to establish standardized practices for examining the mouth and identifying oral mucosal lesions as well as to establish a correlation of viral load with HIV particles found in saliva.
NCT01601340
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of HQK-1001 on Hb F in subjects with sickle cell disease.
NCT00307125
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with rituximab (anti-CD20, Rituxan®, MabThera®) in individuals who develop new anti-HLA antibodies after renal (kidney) transplant will promote longer-term survival of the transplanted kidney.The pilot study compares the use of rituximab (Rituxan®) + site-specific standard immunosuppression to placebo + site-specific standard immunosuppression in the treatment of circulating anti-HLA antibodies in subjects who develop de novo anti-HLA antibodies between 3-36 months after transplant.
NCT00320775
The purpose of this trial is to assess the ocular and systemic safety and tolerability of a single intravitreal injection of VEGF Trap in patients with subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) due to AMD.
NCT00430677
The purpose of this clinical research study is to learn if addition of abatacept is safe and improves the effectiveness of treatment of patients with active lupus nephritis who are also taking mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and corticosteroids.
NCT01688960
This is an open-label, multicenter, ascending, multiple dose study of nesvacumab (REGN910/ SAR307746) in combination with aflibercept ("ziv-aflibercept" in the U.S.)
NCT00618514
This trial was designed as a prospective, multi-center, randomized clinical trial of the FDA-cleared Vari-Lase Bright Tip Fiber compared to commercially available standard bare-tip laser fiber (control) to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of laser ablation for the treatment of varicose veins associated with reflux within the great saphenous vein (GSV) and to provide additional data concerning patient satisfaction. Within this evaluation, subject limbs were randomized to one of two (2) treatment groups utilizing a 1:1 randomization ratio. If a subject required treatment of only one limb, that limb was randomized to a treatment group. If a subject required treatment of two limbs, the first limb was randomly assigned treatment and the second limb was assigned the other treatment (the opposite treatment of the other limb). The data was analyzed by treated limb (versus treated subject).All study data were analyzed under the principles of intent-to-treat, in which data are analyzed according to the assigned randomized group regardless of the treatment actually delivered. Subjects were followed at one week, one month, and six months.
