NCT00000925
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a high-quality protein food supplement will help HIV-positive patients maintain, and possibly gain, muscle mass. Many HIV-positive patients lose weight that they are then unable to regain. This may be because patients are not eating enough protein or are not eating the right kinds of protein. The protein eaten in foods (such as meat, eggs, or beans) may not be able to make up for the amount of protein lost due to HIV infection. This study gives patients high-quality protein food supplements to help them maintain and/or gain weight.
NCT01908179
This registry study will evaluate patients with metastatic brain tumors undergoing, or having undergone, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) at Swedish Medical Center. Clinical outcomes will be evaluated at the 3, 6 and 12-month time points. Clinical data, SRS treatment data, and imaging data (including anatomic and advanced imaging sequences obtained prior to and serially following SRS) will be archived in an online informatics platform, specifically a metastatic brain tumor registry known as the Comprehensive Neuro-oncology Data Repository for Metastatic Tumors (CONDR - Mets).
NCT00002993
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy with mitomycin, doxorubicin, and cisplatin in treating patients with recurrent or advanced cancer of the uterus.
NCT00003691
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy consisting of doxorubicin and cisplatin with or without paclitaxel and G-CSF in treating patients who have stage III, stage IV, or recurrent endometrial cancer.
NCT00002568
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug or combining chemotherapy with surgery may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy consisting of paclitaxel and cisplatin with or without surgery in treating patients with stage III ovarian epithelial cancer.
NCT00003078
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining radiation therapy and chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. It is not known whether receiving radiation therapy plus cisplatin is more effective than receiving radiation therapy plus fluorouracil in treating patients with cancer of the cervix. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of radiation therapy plus cisplatin or fluorouracil in treating patients with primary stage IIB, stage IIIB, or stage IVA cancer of the cervix.
NCT00007501
The incidence and severity of HZ (or shingles), as well as the frequency and severity of its complications, increases markedly with increasing age. More than half of all cases occur in persons over the age of 60. Even without complications, HZ can interfere with an elderly patient's ability to perform essential activities of daily living, resulting in a loss of independence that is emotionally devastating and frequently irreversible. The most common complication of HZ in elderly persons is postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), which frequently results in disordered sleep, chronic fatigue, anxiety and severe depression. Antiviral therapy has a modest impact on the acute phase of HZ. However, it does not appear to prevent the development of PHN. This study is a 5.5 year randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, efficacy trial to determine whether vaccination with live-attenuated Oka/Merck varicella-zoster decreases the incidence and/or severity of herpes zoster (HZ) and its complications in adults 60 years of age and older.
NCT01616680
The purpose of this research is to test the safety and efficacy of brentuximab vedotin in patients with acute skin graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)
NCT00685893
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate an intervention to improve the care given to patients who are dying in the intensive care unit (ICU) and their families. This study is a multi-center randomized trial of a multi-faceted quality improvement intervention designed to improve the quality of palliative and end-of-life care in the ICU setting. The intervention targets the hospital and the outcome evaluation occurs at the level of the individual patient and family with surveys completed by family members and nurses as well as standardized medical record review.
NCT00645762
This study is designed to evaluate safety and effectiveness of a less invasive procedure to treat maxillary only, or maxillary and anterior ethmoid, chronic sinusitis. Additionally, this study will assess the feasibility of performing the procedure under local anesthesia.
NCT00643760
The purpose of this study is to determine whether gabapentin enacarbil (XP13512/GSK1838262), hereafter referred to as GEn is effective in the treatment of neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN)
NCT00617461
The purpose of this study is evaluate the difference between two doses of gabapentin enacarbil (XP13512/GSK1838262), hereafter referred to as GEn, on pain associated with post-herpetic neuralgia.
NCT00003811
RATIONALE: Chemotherapy drugs use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Chemoprotective drugs such as amifostine may protect normal cells from the side effects of chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of high-dose cisplatin, etoposide, and bleomycin plus amifostine in treating children who have malignant germ cell tumors.
NCT00359944
The purpose of this study is to investigate efficacy and safety of different doses of AC-3933 in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's Disease.
NCT00009698
RATIONALE: Interleukin-2 may stimulate a person's white blood cells to kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of interleukin-2 in treating children who have undergone bone marrow transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT00195663
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of adalimumab in combination with methotrexate in patients with recent onset rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to assess the long-term safety and maintenance of efficacy after treatment with adalimumab for up to 10 years.
NCT00623428
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of peginterferon alfa-2a 40KD + ribavirin combination therapy given for 24 weeks versus 48 weeks in patients with chronic hepatitis C, genotype 2/3.
NCT00433394
RATIONALE: Collecting informed consent from parents of children with cancer to register with the Childhood Cancer Research Network may help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This study is collecting informed consent to register younger patients with cancer into the Childhood Cancer Research Network.
NCT00873041
CICL670A2209: This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of deferasirox in non-transfusion dependent thalassemia patients with iron overload. Patients will be treated either with active treatment (deferasirox) or placebo for 12 months (core study phase). Patients who complete the core study phase will be offered to continue their study with the active treatment (deferasirox) in a 12 months extension phase. During the core and extension, the effects of treatment on iron overload in the liver will be evaluated using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessments. CICL670A2209E1: A one-year open-label extension to a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase II study to evaluate efficacy and safety of deferasirox in non-transfusion dependent thalassemia patients with iron overload (Thalassa).
NCT00485303
