NCT01466790
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of TMC435 plus PSI-7977 (GS7977) with or without ribavirin in patients who are chronically infected with genotype 1 hepatitis C virus (HCV) and who did not respond to prior peginterferon/ribavirin therapy or are HCV treatment-naive (patients who never received treatment for HCV infection).
NCT00450437
This study will evaluate the lot to lot consistency, safety and immune response of the Novartis Meningococcal ACWY conjugate vaccine in healthy US adolescents and adults.
NCT00128219
The group B streptococcus (GBS) vaccine study is being done to see if a single vaccination with a GBS type III vaccine can stop women from getting GBS type III bacteria in the vagina. Approximately 600 women, ages 18-40, will be enrolled from the clinical sites participating in this study. Participants will be non-pregnant, sexually active (sex with a male at least once in the last 4 months), and GBS negative in the vagina or rectum at the screening visit. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive the experimental GBS type III vaccine or a licensed vaccine containing Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxoids (Td). Participants will be followed at one month, 2 months and every other month thereafter following vaccination (for vaginal and rectal swab collection and a blood draw) for 1½ years or a total of 10 post vaccination visits.
NCT00420212
To determine if treatment with BG00012 can decrease the number of MS relapses during a certain time period. To determine if, over time, BG00012 treatment can decrease the number of certain types of brain lesions commonly seen in MS patients and slow down the time it takes for the disease to get worse. The purpose of this study is also to determine the safety of BG00012 and how well it is tolerated. Another goal is to see what effect BG00012 may have on tests and evaluations used to assess MS.
NCT00451451
To determine if treatment with BG00012 can decrease the number of MS relapses during a certain time period. Other goals of the study are to determine if, over time, BG00012 treatment can decrease the number of certain types of brain lesions commonly seen in MS patients and slow down the time it takes for MS to get worse. Other objectives of the study are to determine the safety and tolerability of BG00012, as well as the effect it may have on tests and evaluations used to assess MS. Additionally, glatiramer acetate is being used to compare its benefits and risks with placebo and BG00012.
NCT01025037
The purpose of this study is to evaluate patient shoulder functional outcomes following rotator cuff repairs reinforced with a surgical mesh.
NCT01731730
The objectives of this proof of concept study are to evaluate the safety and preventive analgesic efficacy of a single preoperative intrathecal administration of AYX1 Injection in patients undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty.
NCT01519661
This study assessed the long term safety data for the use of tobramycin inhalation powder in patients suffering from cystic fibrosis who have a chronic pulmonary infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
NCT01585961
This is a prospective, interventional, observational, unblinded, single-arm, multicenter registry of younger and older subjects with drug refractory, recurrent, symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
NCT01602081
The LIFT+Biodesign® study is a post-market observational study to evaluate the rate of fistula closure in patients with persistent trans-sphincteric anal fistula who receive the Biodesign® Tissue graft as part of their LIFT procedure.
NCT01609478
To provide the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of indacaterol acetate in patients with persistent asthma to support dose selection of indacaterol in fixed dose combination QMF149.
NCT01853345
In this study tumor will be tested for cancer causing gene alterations such as mutations or copy number alterations. This is called tumor profiling. A panel of experts will review the tumor profiling results and determine whether there is a cancer-causing alteration present in the tumor. If there is, the experts will determine if there is a targeted drug available that could counteract this alteration. If there is an alteration identified and a targeted drug available the panel of experts will make an individualized treatment recommendation. The results of the tumor profiling and the individualized treatment recommendation can be shared with the primary oncologist.
NCT01181323
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the safety of 2 licensed flu vaccines, nasal spray and flu vaccine shot, in mothers and their infants, when given to women who are breastfeeding and to compare the immune response (body's defense against foreign substances) of breastfeeding mothers, who receive intranasal flu vaccine, with breastfeeding mothers receiving the flu vaccine shot. Healthy women (240 volunteers, 28-120 days post delivery) who plan to breastfeed through 28 days post vaccination and who have not received influenza vaccine for the influenza season for which they are being enrolled, will be assigned by chance to 1 of the 2 vaccines in the following manner: flu vaccine nasal spray and a placebo (inactive substance) shot or a flu vaccine shot and a placebo nasal spray. Study procedures include: nasal swabs, blood samples, and completion of memory aids. Participants will be involved in this United States based study for about 6 months.
NCT00332020
The purpose of this study is to assess if 10 mg BAY 59-7939, taken once daily as a tablet, is safe and can help prevent blood clots forming after a hip replacement operation.
NCT00652366
This study will compare the efficacy and safety of escalating versus standard doses to rash of Tarceva, in combination with gemcitabine, in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer. During a 4 week run-in period, all patients will receive Tarceva 100mg/day po plus gemcitabine 1000mg/m2 iv on days 1, 8,15 and 22. After 4 weeks, patients who have not developed rash, or only develop grade 1 rash, will be randomized to one of 2 groups. Group 1 will receive a starting dose of Tarceva 150mg po daily, increased in steps of 50mg every 2 weeks up to a maximum of 250mg/day po, until development of grade 2 rash or other dose-limiting toxicity. Group 2 will continue to receive Tarceva 100mg/day po. All patients will continue to receive gemcitabine 1000mg/m2 iv on days 1, 8 and 15 of each 4 week cycle. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
NCT01831037
This study aims to demonstrate that patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) and B (CHB) experiencing regression of liver cirrhosis after effective antiviral therapy have decreased risk for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Primary aim is to determine the incidence of HCC in patients with cirrhosis secondary to CHC and CHB, after treatment is provided, and to identify the magnitude of the decreased risk for HCC in patients experiencing regression of fibrosis. As a secondary aim, environmental risk factors for HCC development will be sought, in order to determine a subset of patients in whom it will be safe to stop surveillance.
NCT01731652
This is a Phase II pilot study to explore the effect of intravesical TMX-101 in patients with CIS bladder cancer, as assessed by histology and cytology after TMX-101 treatment.
