NCT00003563
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Gadolinium texaphyrin may increase the effectiveness of radiation therapy by making tumor cells more sensitive to radiation. It is not yet known whether giving gadolinium texaphyrin with radiation therapy is more effective than radiation therapy alone in treating brain metastases. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of radiation therapy with or without gadolinium texaphyrin in treating patients who have brain metastases.
NCT01221090
To evaluate the effectiveness of two different diabetes self-management approaches (Personal Digital Assistant-based intervention \& Chronic Disease Self-Management Program) to reduce health disparities in minority, rural residents, and other underserved populations with type 2 diabetes in Central Texas. We hypothesise that: 1) Racial/ethnic minority patients with T2DM will be found to experience disparities in diabetes self-management treatment protocols and clinical outcomes, which persist even when controlling for age, gender, obesity, and insurance status; 2) Patients with T2DM who reside in more rural areas will be found to experience disparities in diabetes self-management treatment protocols and clinical outcomes as compared to more urban counterparts, controlling for age, gender, race/ethnicity, obesity, and insurance status; 3) The introduction of CSDMP and HIT protocols will improve diabetes-related self management behaviors, reduce HBA1c values, and increase quality of life in persons with T2DM as compared to controls. A combined intervention approach will result in the greatest reductions; 4) Health improvements following the introduction of CDSMP, HIT or CDSMP/HIT protocols in persons with T2DM compared to controls will be more marked in racial/ethnic minority patients and those patients residing in rural areas; 5) The introduction of self-management interventions will be cost-effective in reducing HbA1c values over time, and associated health care utilization including overall reduction in ER and acute care hospital admissions; 6) Although there is little prior research in this area to guide specific hypotheses, we hypothesize that, overall, there will be no significant cost-effective differential in CDSMP as compared to HIT approaches, although the cost-effective ratio may be stronger in particular subpopulations. The combined approach will have higher costs, but is also anticipated to have a higher cost-benefit ratio for minority populations; 7) The majority of clinicians will be willing to let their patients enroll in the study and will reinforce intervention protocols; and 8) These interventions can be embedded into existing health care structures. At the end of the study, Scott and White will institutionalize cost-effective treatment protocols.
NCT01136655
This purpose of the study is to investigate the bronchodilating effects of 3 different dosages of formoterol given in combination with budesonide as Symbicort pMDI.
NCT00066482
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 I trial to study the effect on the body of combining cyclophosphamide with cisplatin, etoposide, and bleomycin in treating children who have newly diagnosed malignant germ cell tumors that are not in the brain and gonads.
NCT00375284
This trial is a 6-week, double-blind, randomized, active and placebo-controlled parallel-group study with a primary objective of comparison of starting doses of pramipexole fixed-dose (0.25 mg daily) and pramipexole titrated-dose (0.125 mg qd for 1 week, then 0.25 mg qd for the remaining 5 weeks) with placebo to evaluate efficacy and safety in treating RLS symptoms in patients diagnosed with idiopathic RLS. The secondary objectives of this study will be to assess the onset of action of symptomatic relief of RLS for pramipexole with daily assessment of PGI and modified IRLS during two intervals of the first 2 weeks (Days 2, 3 and 4 and Days 9, 10, and 11) and assessment of IRLS, PGI and CGI-I at Weeks 1, 2, 4 and 6 (CGI-I additionally on Day 3).
NCT01375127
This is an observational study designed to collect follow-up clinical date on subjects who were treated with tofacitinib in 2 completed Phase 2 studies who either discontinued treatment prematurely or did not elect to enroll in long-term extension studies.
NCT01399580
Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel Design, Placebo-Controlled Multicenter Study. The study objectives are to evaluate efficacy and safety, including thoracic bioimpedance, of once daily administration of atrasentan tablets (high dose and low dose) compared to placebo in type 2 diabetic subjects with nephropathy who are receiving the maximum tolerated labeled daily dose of a RAS inhibitor.
NCT00274547
The primary objective of this trial is to determine whether treatment with tiotropium (18 mcg) capsule once daily via the HandiHaler reduces the proportion of patients with COPD experiencing an exacerbation and the proportion of patients hospitalized for an exacerbation during a six month observation period.
NCT00800735
This single arm study will provide treatment or re-treatment with PEGASYS as monotherapy or in combination with ribavirin (Copegus), to patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) who have participated in a previous Roche or Roche partner protocol where access to treatment or re-treatment was promised or deemed appropriate following completion of the original protocol ('donor' protocol). Patients who qualify for treatment or re-treatment will begin PEGASYS monotherapy, at a maximum dose of 180 µg weekly, or combination therapy with Copegus, 800-1200 mg daily, as continuation of treatment after the wash-out period defined in their donor protocol. PEGASYS treatment is not to exceed the approved treatment duration of 48 weeks in genotype G1 with a treatment-free follow up period of 24 weeks.

NCT00605683
Parkinson's disease is a major neurodegenerative disorder in which there is a progressive loss of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons. The understanding that PD is a syndrome of dopamine (DA) deficiency led to the introduction in the clinical practice of L-dopa, a precursor of DA that crosses the blood brain barrier, and also to the use of selective inhibitors of MAO B, the major DA metabolising enzyme in man. This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, randomised, multi-centre, multi national, Phase III trial, comparing two doses of safinamide (50 and 100 mg p.o. q.a.m.) versus placebo as add-on therapy to a stable dose of a single dopamine agonist in subjects with early idiopathic Parkinson's Disease. The principal efficacy measure, i.e., change in mean value of UPDRS - Section III total score from baseline to endpoint, was chosen based on regulatory guidance and prior use in other trials in similar populations.
NCT00676533
