NCT00005866
RATIONALE: Peripheral stem cell transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy used to kill tumor cells. It is not yet known if total-body irradiation plus peripheral stem cell transplantation is more effective with busulfan or with cyclophosphamide for myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of busulfan with that of cyclophosphamide in patients undergoing total-body irradiation plus peripheral stem cell transplantation for advanced myelodysplastic syndrome or related acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT00005834
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Thalidomide may stop the growth of tumor cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known if combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without thalidomide for multiple myeloma. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy with or without thalidomide in treating patients who have refractory multiple myeloma.
NCT00668200
This study will evaluate the impact of investigator and patient education and educational materials to foster calcium and vitamin D supplementation to mitigate the potential for hypocalcemia post Reclast® administration in patients with Paget's disease of bone.
NCT01352793
A multicenter phase 3 safety trial in which 5,700 subjects will be assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive 120 μg rLP2086 vaccine in a 0, 2, 6 month schedule or control. The control group will receive HAVRIX vaccine at month 0 and 6 and saline at month 2. All subjects will be followed for 6 months after the last vaccination to assess safety and tolerability.
NCT01787188
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Meloxicam \[Test\] Capsules are safe and effective for the treatment of osteoarthritis pain of the knee or hip.
NCT00039026
This is a multicenter, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled study to assess the effects on glucose control of AC2993 as compared to placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes. Patients will be randomized into one of two AC2993 treatment arms or to placebo treatment and will continue with their required existing diabetes medication (sulfonylurea) throughout the study.
NCT01789957
This multicenter, open-label extension study of Protocol 2993-112 is designed to assess long-term glucose control as measured by HbA1c (glycosylated hemoglobin) and to evaluate long-term safety and tolerability in subjects treated with metformin who receive subcutaneously injected AC2993 (10 mcg) administered twice daily. Subjects completing Protocol 2993-112 are eligible to enroll.
NCT00619801
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of the oral formulation of levocetirizine in children ages 1 to less than 6 years old who suffer from allergic rhinitis or chronic urticaria of unknown origin.
NCT00051701
The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dose of Campath for patients with relapsing or refractory (failed standard therapy) non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The study will also evaluate the safety of the drug and whether it is effective in treating these patients.
NCT00094302
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of aldosterone antagonist therapy in reducing cardiovascular mortality, aborted cardiac arrest, and heart failure hospitalization in patients who have heart failure with preserved systolic function.
NCT01715298
The study serves to determine whether the treatment of patients with stable, symptomatic Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) with the investigational drug NVA237 is efficient and safe. The efficacy and safety of the drug will be tested against a placebo treatment. The primary criterion to assess efficacy will be the difference between the serial lung function measurements of patients who have been treated for 12 weeks with NVA237 versus those that have received placebo treatment for 12 weeks. A serial lung function measurement (FEV1 testing) will be conducted and the "area under the curve" will be the measure for the ability to breathe.
NCT00103935
Exenatide LAR is a long-acting release formulation of exenatide, which is a twice-daily dosage form currently under investigation as a potential treatment for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study will assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of Exenatide LAR administered weekly by subcutaneous injection in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
NCT00106184
Rituximab is a man-made antibody used to treat certain types of cancer. This study will determine whether rituximab is an effective treatment for adult and pediatric patients with dermatomyositis or polymyositis. Study hypotheses: 1) The time to improvement in Group A patients (receiving rituximab first) will occur significantly earlier than in Group B patients (receiving rituximab later). 2) The proportion of patients improved at Week 8 of the treatment phase will be significantly greater in Group A than in Group B.
NCT00529503
This is a randomized trial to estimate the activity of R-ICE plus SGN-40 vs. R-ICE plus placebo in patients with DLBCL. The study will assess safety and tolerability and will measure any additional clinical benefit observed in patients receiving SGN-40.
NCT00977665
To test the clinical effect of rasagiline on subjects with MSA of the parkinsonian subtype.
NCT01605292
Radial artery access for cardiac catheterization can require multiple attempts. Multiple attempts increase the time required, patient discomfort, and the risk of arterial spasm. Ultrasound guidance has been shown in other studies to reduce the number of attempts and complications in central venous and femoral artery access. This study will test if the addition of ultrasound guidance reduces the number of attempts and time required to access the radial artery.
NCT00002548
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. Combining chemotherapy and radiation therapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy and radiation therapy and kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which treatment regimen is more effective for multiple myeloma. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of melphalan, total-body irradiation, and peripheral stem cell transplantation with that of combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have previously untreated multiple myeloma.
NCT01766011
The purpose of this study is to assess overall growth of preterm infants fed a reformulated preterm infant formula during hospitalization. All study products meet levels of nutrients for the infant population as specified in the Infant Formula Act and all subsequent amendments.
NCT00002849
RATIONALE: Chemotherapy plus interferon alfa may be effective for primary systemic amyloidosis. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of dexamethasone plus interferon alfa in treating patients who have primary systemic amyloidosis.
NCT01520909
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of eltrombopag in children with previously treated chronic immune thrombocytopenia who are between 1 and 17 years of age. This is a 2 part study. In part 1, patients will be randomized to receive either eltrombopag or placebo for 13 weeks. All patients who complete part 1 will enter part 2. In part 2, all patients will receive 24 weeks of eltrombopag.
