NCT00575822
The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of endoscopic full-thickness plication (Plicator; NDO Surgical, Inc., Mansfield, MA) for the treatment of GERD in comparison to a sham procedure. Patients with symptomatic GERD requiring maintenance proton pump inhibitor therapy were entered into a randomized, single-blind, prospective, multicenter trial. Seventy-eight patients were randomly assigned to undergo endoscopic full-thickness restructuring of the gastric cardia with transmural suture. Eighty-one patients underwent a sham procedure. Group assignments were revealed following the 3-month evaluation. The primary endpoint was ≥ 50% improvement in GERD-HRQL score. Secondary endpoints included medication use and esophageal acid exposure. Patients achieving ≥ 50% improvement in GERD-HRQL score at 3-months versus baseline off-meds were considered responsive to their assigned procedure. Patients who failed to reach this level of improvement at 3-months were considered non-responders. Analysis of these dichotomized variables (responder/non-responder) was done using Fisher's exact test comparing the proportion of responders between the active and sham groups. Intent-to-treat analysis was also performed. The null hypothesis was that the proportion of responders was the same in both the active and sham groups. Testing was done at the 5% level of significance (alpha=0.05).
NCT00650455
The objectives of the study were to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of valdecoxib 10 mg once daily (QD) or naproxen 500 mg twice daily (BID) versus placebo, and to assess the efficacy of valdecoxib 10 mg QD versus naproxen 500 mg BID, in treating the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a severe Rheumatoid Arthritis population.
NCT00543673
To assess the gastrointestinal tolerance of healthy full-term infants fed either experimental formula or a control formula
NCT00584896
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of PB127 with cardiac ultrasound assists in the diagnosis or exclusion of coronary artery disease.
NCT00584714
The purpose of this study is to collect longer term follow-up information concerning health and survival on selected patients who received PB127 for injectable suspension in the pivotal trial (127-014).
NCT00001109
The purpose of this study is to learn more about some of the immune cells in the blood (CD4 cells, for example) of healthy children in order to better understand the differences in the blood cells of children infected with HIV. Because children's bodies are still developing, their cells are different from those of adults, and their bodies respond differently to infections such as HIV. In order to understand how immune cells grow and mature so that they can fight HIV, it is important to see how these cells behave in normal children.
NCT00014521
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of karenitecin in treating patients who have recurrent malignant glioma.
NCT00331188
The main objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of early administration of Sanvar® in combination with endoscopic treatment for the control of acute variceal bleeding.
NCT00014547
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of BBR 3464 in treating patients who have metastatic small cell lung cancer that has not responded to previous treatment.
NCT00709748
The purpose of this study is to determine whether transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) delivered via the Empi Select TENS device provides relief of chronic lower back pain.
NCT00003647
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Injecting allovectin-7 into a person's melanoma cells may make the body build an immune response that will kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of dacarbazine with or without immunotherapy in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV melanoma.
NCT00683436
This will be a multi-center, randomized, blinded, comparative, placebo-controlled, 4 arm crossover study in patients with primary insomnia.
NCT00133731
The objective of this dose-ranging study is to determine the effects of several intravenous (IV) regimens of otamixaban on pharmacodynamic markers (including markers of thrombosis and coagulation markers), safety/tolerability, clinical efficacy and pharmacokinetics.
NCT00392106
The purpose of this study is to determine if the HIFU Pulmonary Vein Ablation System is effective in the treatment of paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation compared to the control of best medical therapy with FDA approved antiarrhythmic drugs.
NCT00298350
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the non-inferiority of ritonavir-boosted GS-9137 relative to a ritonavir-boosted Comparator Protease Inhibitor when used as part of combination antiretroviral regimens in subjects who have failed, or are failing, protease inhibitor therapy.
NCT00039156
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of BAY 59-8862 in treating patients who have refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
NCT00024401
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of DHA-paclitaxel in treating patients who have metastatic colorectal cancer.
NCT00595673
This trial is to compare PB127 echocardiography to other heart imaging studies.
NCT00498654
The purpose of this trial is to examine the safety and immunogenicity of Ty800 oral vaccine in healthy adult subjects.
NCT00487903
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate various commercially available ultrasound systems and to identify imaging parameters to be used with these systems (along with the contrast agent PB127) as well as to further evaluate the safety of PB127.
