NCT03992053
The Research question: Among two standard image guidance techniques \[2-dimension (2-D) conventional Fluoroscopy Versus 3-dimension (3-D) Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)\], which is the better guidance for Sacroiliac Joint Injection therapy and should be used first? The specific aims: To detect the difference of the first-time success rate, the cross-over rate, the procedural time, the radiation exposure, the incidence of adverse events/complications, and overall satisfaction score between the 2-D Fluoroscopy versus 3-D CBCT guidance for SIJ injection.
NCT02966834
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of GSK2330672 administration for the treatment of pruritus (itch) in participants with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). Participants will receive either placebo or one of the 4 dose regimens of GSK2330672 (20 milligram \[mg\], 90 mg or 180 mg taken once daily or 90 mg twice daily). Participants on GSK2330672 will also receive placebo tablets to maintain blinding. The study has a prospectively defined adaptive design that will utilize interim data to further inform and potentially optimize the doses under investigation. Hence, additional dose regimen may be added during study. The total duration of a participant in the study will be up to 45 days of screening and 24 weeks of study including follow-up.
NCT00951496
This randomized phase III trial studies bevacizumab and intravenous (given into a vein) chemotherapy to see how well they work compared with bevacizumab and intraperitoneal (given into the abdominal cavity) chemotherapy in treating patients with stage II-III ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, carboplatin, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known whether giving bevacizumab together with intravenous chemotherapy is more effective than giving bevacizumab together with intraperitoneal chemotherapy in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer.
NCT02700464
Clinical trial to determine the efficacy (sensitivity and specificity) of the Bladder EpiCheck test compared to the gold standard cystoscopy and pathology in patients under monitoring for recurrence of bladder cancer.
NCT00059202
This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial of high dose ursodiol versus placebo for patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). The average duration of follow-up will be approximately five years with important clinical endpoints such as death, eligibility for liver transplantation, changes in histology and cholangiogram as well as liver biochemistries and quality of life data collected.
NCT00004067
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and paclitaxel, use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy plus trastuzumab is more effective than combination chemotherapy alone for treating breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying how well giving combination chemotherapy together with trastuzumab works compared to combination chemotherapy alone in treating women with node-positive stage II or stage IIIA breast cancer that overexpresses HER2.
NCT01844765

NCT04740970
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical response of 22 weeks of study intervention with JNJ-64304500, compared with placebo, in participants with moderate to severe alopecia areata (AA).
NCT04863560
Lay Summary: Walking problems, such as slow and short steps, are very common in Parkinson's disease and lead to increased falls risk, as well as reduced mobility and quality of life. Walking issues are difficult to treat as medication interventions do not restore walking ability in people with Parkinson's, therefore physiotherapy approaches are used to help improve walking. Various physiotherapy strategies have been used, such as internal (thinking about bigger steps) or external prompts. External prompts include auditory (a metronome beat to step in time to), visual (lines to step over on the floor) and tactile (metronome-like vibration to step with) prompts that are very commonly used to improve walking in Parkinson's. However, the reason why walking improves in people with Parkinson's with these physiotherapy strategies is unknown, which has led to not all patients benefiting and only short-term walking improvements being seen. The main issues are that it is unclear if these various internal or external prompt strategies are effective with the progression of Parkinson's disease, and it is unknown which type of strategy is most effective at different disease stages or with more severe walking impairment, such as freezing (the inability to progress walking for short periods despite wanting to do so). Being able to use specific brain regions to pay attention to different internal or external prompts has been suggested to be the reason why people with Parkinson's can overcome their walking problems, but this has not been tested. Therefore, this study will use state-of-the-art digital technology to measure walking and brain activity changes with different internal and external prompts. The investigators think that the walking improvement with different prompt strategies relies on the ability to activate specific brain regions, and that brain region activity in response to internal or external prompts will change at different stages of Parkinson's disease. Ultimately, understanding the reasons why people benefit from these physiotherapy strategies and who benefits most from specific strategies will enable clinicians to provide more timely and efficient treatment for people with Parkinson's, and to develop more effective strategies to further improve walking.
NCT02969499
This is a prospective, open-label, observational study of the efficacy and safety of ECT for BPSD. There is no control or comparison group. Subjects will be compared on outcome measures pre- and post-ECT (and/or with a repeated measures design). Target sample size is 30 subjects over three years
NCT02563067
This study aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of QAW039 and QAW039 450 mg compared to placebo, when added to GINA (Global Initiative for Asthma) steps 4 and 5 standard-of- care (SoC) asthma therapy (GINA 2016) in the following two populations: * patient with inadequately controlled severe asthma and high eosinophil counts (eosinophil count at Visit 1 ≥250 cells/ µl) (sub-population) * patients with inadequately controlled severe asthma (overall study population) Inadequate control is defined as partly controlled or uncontrolled asthma (GINA 2016)
NCT03110627
This study aims to compare the Dx-ICD system (experimental) to standard VVI-ICD (control) on the ability to diagnose silent AF in patients without prior AF receiving an ICD for standard indications.
NCT00087165
RATIONALE: GTI-2040 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. GTI-2040 may help docetaxel kill more tumor cells by making them more sensitive to the drug. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving GTI-2040 together with docetaxel and prednisone works in treating patients with prostate cancer that has not responded to hormone therapy.
NCT01167595
Critically ill patients are consistently underfed. Feeding protocols are standardized system tools used to guide nutrition practices, but to date have failed to improve delivery of nutrition. The PEP uP Protocol is a new enhanced feeding protocol. Twenty North American Intensive Care Units (ICUs) will assess baseline nutrition practices. Ten ICUs will be randomized to implement the PEP uP Protocol and educational intervention, and ten will be randomized to continue usual care. Nutrition practices will be reevaluated 6 months after baseline. The investigators hypothesize that the PEP uP Protocol will increase delivery of nutrition, and may ultimately lead to improved survival of critical illness.
NCT02661217

NCT03250338
This is a randomized, multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to evaluate the efficacy of crenolanib administered following salvage chemotherapy, consolidation chemotherapy, post bone marrow transplantation and as maintenance in relapsed/refractory AML subjects with FLT3 activating mutation.
NCT01977547
ABC PICU is a randomized clinical trial that will compare the clinical consequences of RBC storage duration in 1538 critically ill children. Laboratory and observational evidence points to serious concerns about the lack of safety and effectiveness of older RBCs, especially in more vulnerable populations. Physicians and institutions have been systematically transfusing fresh RBCs to some pediatric patients primarily because of beliefs that the use of fresh RBCs improve outcomes. Conversely, the standard practice of blood banks is to deliver the oldest RBC unit in order to decrease blood wastage. To provide much needed high quality evidence to answer the question "do RBCs of reduced storage duration improve outcomes?" The ABC PICU Trial will conduct a RCT comparing development of New or Progressive Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndrome (NPMODS) in critically ill children transfused with either RBCs stored ≤ 7 days or standard issue RBCs (expected mean RBC storage duration of 17-21 days).
NCT02522884
