NCT01666444
The purpose of this study is to compare the overall survival of patients treated with VTX-2337 + pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) versus those treated with PLD alone in women with recurrent or persistent, epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer. VTX-2337, a small molecule agonist of Toll-like Receptor 8 (TLR8), activates multiple components of the innate immune system and is being developed as a novel therapeutic agent for use in oncology. Experimental data obtained in an animal model of ovarian cancer supports the combination of VTX-2337 with PLD. In this model, the combination of VTX-2337 and PLD resulted in a significant reduction in tumor growth compared to either agent alone and an increase in the number of T lymphocytes infiltrating the tumor. The combination of PLD and VTX-2337 has been tested in a small number of women with ovarian cancer in a Phase 1b study and appears to be generally well-tolerated.
NCT02270021
The goal of this study is to prevent over screening and over treatment of young women for cervical precancers, which can result in psychological distress and has been associated with future risk of premature deliveries. Current national guidelines recommend that routine screening be performed at less-frequent intervals and that excisional cervical therapies are discouraged in young women. The objectives of this study are to examine physician- and patient-based interventions designed to decrease over screening and over treatment by increasing adherence to US guidelines for women under 30 years.

NCT02288559
This multicenter, randomized, single-masked, sham injection-controlled study will investigate the exposure-response and safety of lampalizumab administered intravitreally every 2 weeks (Q2W) or every 4 weeks (Q4W) for 24 weeks in participants with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). A safety run-in assessment will be conducted prior to initiating enrollment in the randomized study.
NCT01199952
Hypothesis: Use of an effective contraceptive six weeks after abortion will be higher in the treatment group than in the control group. Primary Aim ·To determine use of an effective contraceptive method six weeks after abortion in women who choose combined hormonal contraception (CHC) and who receive a three-week educational phone call as compared to women who do not receive the intervention. Secondary Aims * To describe the most common concerns and logistical problems women experience with initiating and adhering to CHC after abortion. * To describe the concerns that lead to discontinuation or method change. \*To assess feasibility of conducting a follow-up telephone call in this population This is a randomized, controlled trial to assess the effect of a three-week follow-up phone call in women who choose combined hormonal contraception on the day of their abortion at the San Francisco General Hospital Women's Options Center. Subjects randomized to the treatment group will receive an interventional phone call three weeks after their abortion; participants randomized to the control group will not receive the call. All subjects will receive a follow-up call six weeks after their abortion to assess and compare method use between the two groups. Calls will be made at three- and six-weeks post abortion in order to give subjects enough time to initiate CHC and to assess continuation into the second month of the method. Data will be collected at baseline, during the intervention for the treatment group and during the final follow-up call for both groups. The primary outcome is use of an effective contraceptive six weeks after abortion.
NCT01170663

NCT01973270
The purpose of this study is to determine whether cognitive training exercises can improve cognitive functioning in young patients with recent-onset schizophrenia, schizoaffective, schizophreniform, and psychosis NOS who are being treated in community mental health settings. We will investigate the effects of web-based cognitive training exercises delivered on a portable laptop computer. The findings will provide us with valuable information on whether cognitive training can improve the cognition and functioning of young individuals early in the course of schizophrenia.

NCT02272023
A Phase II Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT) is proposed to compare a 9-session model of intensive motivational interviewing (IMI) to standard motivational interviewing techniques (SMI) among alcohol dependent women. Preliminary work studying 87 women randomly assigned to IMI or a standard single session of motivational interviewing showed significantly better drinking outcomes for women in the IMI condition at 4- and 6-month follow-up. Interestingly, mean trajectories for women assigned to IMI showed continuing declines in drinking problems during and after treatment. Differences between study conditions grew larger between 4-month (p\<.05) and 6-month (p\<.01) follow-up and the effect size at 6 months was medium to large (Cohen's d=0.63) The study will use mixed model quantitative and qualitative methods to respond to the PA's call for studies assessing mechanisms of change. Unlike many previous studies of SMI, we will employ limited exclusion criteria and will enroll participants who present with co-existing drug and psychiatric disorders. Procedures for the proposed study draw from our current successful RCT assessing IMI for methamphetamine (MA) dependence. Successful aspects of the current study include achievement of recruitment goals, strong adherence to the treatment and research protocols, and excellent rates for follow-up interviews (\>90%). The proposed study will take place at the same outpatient treatment program as the current study, New Leaf Treatment Center in Lafayette, California. Participants will include 220 alcohol dependent women who will be randomly assigned to IMI or SMI. Those in SMI will also receive an attention component (nutrition education) to achieve time equivalence between the two study conditions. Participants in both groups will receive standard weekly group treatment offered at the program. In addition, referrals to Alcoholics Anonymous will be provided to all participants. The primary outcomes will be measures of drinking, heavy drinking (4+ drinks), and severity of alcohol problems assessed at baseline and 2, 6, and 12 months. Secondary outcomes will include Addiction Severity Index scales, psychiatric problems, and symptoms of trauma. The study will include standard quantitative testing of potential mediators, including, the therapeutic alliance, self-efficacy, motivation, satisfaction, and use of outside services. However, the application also proposes an innovative use of qualitative procedures to identify unrecognized factors influencing outcome.
NCT02670330

NCT01903993
This multicenter, open-label, randomized study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Atezolizumab compared with docetaxel in participants with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer after platinum failure. Participants will be randomized to receive either Atezolizumab 1200 milligram (mg) intravenously every 3 weeks or docetaxel 75 milligram per meter square (mg/m\^2) intravenously every 3 weeks. Treatment with Atezolizumab may be continued as long as participants are experiencing clinical benefit as assessed by the investigator, i.e., in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or symptomatic deterioration attributed to disease progression.
NCT02243579
This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab works in treating patients with stage IB-IVB mycosis fungoides or Sezary syndrome that has returned after a period of improvement or has not responded to at least one type of treatment. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may block cancer growth in different ways by targeting certain cells.
NCT01827046
A phase III, randomized, case-controlled, open-label, 500-subject clinical trial of minimally invasive surgery plus rt-PA in the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
NCT03017482
The purpose of this project is to track initiation and the first year of clinical use of the newly FDA approved 670G closed loop insulin delivery system by patients who have requested this system. Our goal is to evaluate our clinical approach to starting this newly approved system. Since the investigators are only following patients who have already decided to start the 670G, the investigator does not assign specific interventions to the subjects of the study; thus this is a Observational study.
NCT02601820
The PROP UP research study is funded by The Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). PROP UP is a multi-centered prospective observational study that will evaluate all-oral treatment regimens for chronic hepatitis C viral (HCV) infection regarding several patient-reported outcomes (PROs) such as HCV-associated symptoms, treatment side effects, medication adherence, out of pocket costs, comorbid conditions, and long-term benefits of cure and harms of treatment to compare PROs of different treatment regimens, treatment durations, and patient subgroups. Participants will be recruited from 9 U.S. liver centers. Approximately 1920 patients with HCV infection who are prescribed a regimen containing Sofosbuvir/Ledipasvir(SOF/LED), SOF/Velpatasvir(SOF/VEL), Grazoprevir/Elbasvir(GRZ/ELB), OBV/PTV/r + DSV (PRoD), or daclatasvir/SOF (DAC/SOF) will be recruited and approximately 1600 patients who are approved and begin HCV treatment will be enrolled in the longitudinal study. PRO surveys will be evaluated before, during and after HCV treatment. PROP UP is a collaborative effort between behavioral and biomedical researchers, a patient engagement group and a patient advocacy organization.
