NCT01372787
This clinical trial studies the quality of life and care needs of patients with persistent or recurrent ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or peritoneal cancer. Studying quality of life in patients with cancer may help determine the effects of gynecologic cancer and may help improve the quality of life for future cancer survivors.
NCT01846611
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of trabectedin+DOXIL as a third-line chemotherapy regimen (treatment) in patients with platinum-sensitive advanced-relapsed epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer who received 2 previous lines of platinum-based chemotherapy.
NCT01223261
The purposes of this study were: 1) to compare mortality and postoperative morbidities in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants who underwent initial laparotomy or drainage for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) or isolated intestinal perforation (IP); 2) to determine the ability to distinguish NEC from IP preoperatively and the importance of this distinction on outcome measures; and 3) to evaluate the association between extent of intestinal disease determined at operation and outcome measures. All ELBW infants born at participating NRN centers were screened for the presence of NEC or IP that was thought by the pediatric surgeon and neonatologist to require surgical intervention. Data were collected enrolled infants, including: intraoperative findings recorded by the surgeon and specific post-operative complications. Neurodevelopmental examinations were conducted on surviving infants at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT00273325
Premature infants are at a high risk for pneumonia. The PCV-7 vaccine effectively prevents the invasive disease from Streptococcus pneumoniae in full-term infants, but was not thoroughly studied in premature infants. This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine given in routine practice to very low birth weight infants, looking at blood antibody levels 4-6 weeks after the final vaccine dose, and adverse events, survival, infections, and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT01203358
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of two surfactants, Exosurf Neonatal (Burroughs Wellcome Co.) and Survanta (Ross Laboratories), for the treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.
NCT00109525
This observational study evaluated the performance of new lab tests in detecting candida species fungal infections in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants quickly and accurately. 19 NICHD Neonatal Research Network sites enrolled 1,500 infants with birth weights ≤1,000g; 100 of these infants later tested positive for candidiasis. Blood, urine, and lumbar puncture samples were collected whenever other specimens were obtained from participants for cultures. These samples are being tested using the new methods and compared with standard culture results. Surviving study subjects completed a neurodevelopmental evaluation at 18-22 months corrected age.
NCT01523587
This randomised, open-label phase III trial will be performed in patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the lung requiring second-line treatment after receiving first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. The primary objective of this trial is to compare the efficacy of BIBW 2992 to erlotinib as second-line treatment in this group of patients.
NCT01010126
This phase II trial studies how well temsirolimus and bevacizumab work in treating patients with advanced endometrial, ovarian, liver, carcinoid, or islet cell cancer. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving temsirolimus together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.
NCT01539512
This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to evaluate the effect of idelalisib in combination with rituximab on the onset, magnitude, and duration of tumor control in participants previously treated for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Eligible patients will be randomized with a 1:1 ratio into 1 of the 2 treatment arms to receive either idelalisib plus rituximab or placebo plus rituximab. Participants who are tolerating primary study therapy but experience definitive CLL progression are eligible to receive active idelalisib therapy in the extension study, GS-US-312-0117.
NCT01489371
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of giving EGEN-001 together with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride in treating patients with ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has returned after a period of improvement or has not responded to treatment. Biological therapies, such as EGEN-001, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving EGEN-001 together with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride may kill more tumor cells.
NCT00586924
A dose-escalation study to identify the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD), defined as the highest dose that can safely be given to a participant and establish the safest dose based on the highest tolerated dose for clinical testing.
NCT02492737
The purpose of this Phase I, multicenter study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and clinical activity of AG-881 in advanced hematologic malignancies that harbor an IDH1 and/or IDH2 mutation
NCT01875874
This phase 2 study is developed to evaluate the effect of ELAD on overall survival (OS) in subjects with acute liver failure (ALF) compared to matched historical controls.
NCT02871427
This study seeks to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of nelotanserin for the treatment of visual hallucinations (VHs) and Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD) in subjects with Lewy body dementia (LBD).
NCT02399267
The requirement for invasive mechanical ventilation is a defining feature of critical illness. Liberation or weaning is the process during which the work of breathing is transferred from the ventilator back to the patient. Approximately 40% of the time spent on mechanical ventilation is dedicated to weaning. Limiting the duration of invasive ventilation has been identified as a key research priority in critical care. Studies support the use of screening protocols (once daily vs. usual care) to identify weaning candidates and the conduct of tests of patient's ability to breathe spontaneously (SBTs). While once daily screening is the current standard of care in national intensive care units (ICUs), it is poorly aligned with the 24/7 ICU care environment wherein a critically ill patients' status can change from hour to hour. Only one large trial has compared alternative SBT techniques \[T-piece vs PS (Pressure Support)\]. No trial has compared a strategy of more frequent screening to once daily screening or alternative SBT techniques. The presence of respiratory therapists (RTs) 24/7 in North American ICUs presents a unique opportunity to screen more frequently, conduct more frequent SBTs, and determine the optimal strategy to liberate critically ill adults from invasive ventilation. The investigators propose to conduct a pilot randomized trial in 100 critically ill adults comparing 'once daily' screening to 'at least twice daily' screening and PS vs. T-piece SBTs in 12 Canadian ICUs. In the proposed trial, the investigators will (i) assess their ability to recruit critically ill adults who can breathe spontaneously or initiate breaths on one of several commonly used modes of ventilation into the trial, (ii) evaluate clinician's ability to implement the trial as designed, (iii) assess current practices in sedation, analgesia and delirium management and timing of patient mobilization prior to conducting screening assessments, (iv) identify barriers (clinician, institutional) to enrolling patients, (v) characterize trial participants based on weaning difficulty, and (vi) obtain preliminary estimates of the impact of the alternative screening and SBT strategies on clinically important outcomes.
NCT03127735
To determine the maximum tolerated and / or recommended Phase II dose of oral mutant IDH1 (mIDH1) inhibitor BAY1436032 and to characterize its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary clinical efficacy in patients with mIDH1-R132X advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
NCT01685138
A single-arm, open-label, two-stage multicenter, phase II study. Patients were pre-screened for ALK positive status. Treatment with LDK378 at 750 mg qd was continued until the patient experienced unacceptable toxicity that precluded further treatment, discontinued treatment at the discretion of the investigator or patient, started a new anticancer therapy and/or died. LDK378 was continued beyond RECIST defined progressive disease (PD) as assessed by the investigator, if in the judgment of the investigator, there was evidence of clinical benefit. Patients who discontinued the study medication in the absence of progression continued to be followed for tumor assessment until the time of PD as assessed by the investigator. Male and female patients aged 18 or over with ALK-rearranged non-small cell cancer (NSCLC) were screened for eligibility. Patients had to have received no prior crizotinib, and had to be chemotherapy-naïve or been pretreated with cytotoxic chemotherapy (up to three prior lines).
NCT02543346
Allergen challenge facilities have been utilized for many years in clinical drug trials studying onset of action, proof of concept, duration of action, and efficacy. Each facility has somewhat different design characteristics and pollen dispersal technologies. Facilities are located in disparate geographic areas and have populations of participants who are sensitized to allergens unique to that area. Therefore, facilities have operated as single sites with little effort to evaluate facility comparability or to attempt standardization across facilities. The purpose of this study is to compare the two sites and assess whether the sites are able to achieve similar symptom scores.
NCT02258607
This study is conducted in two phases. The Dose-finding Lead-in Phase, Part A, will evaluate the safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of momelotinib (MMB) when combined with trametinib. Once the MTD of momelotinib (MMB) is determined, the study will proceed to the Dose-finding Lead-in Phase, Part B, to determine the MTD of trametinib. After the MTD is established, the study may proceed to an expansion phase to determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of MMB combined with trametinib at the MTD in participants with kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) mutated metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Each treatment cycle will consist of 28 days and treatment will continue in the absence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, consent withdrawal, or participant's refusal of treatment.
NCT03075969
The objective of this study is to test the scale structure, reliability, validity and responsiveness to change of the QLQ-CML24 in conjuction with the QLQ-C30 for patients diagnosed with CML, and to investigate longitudinal relationship between satisfaction with information provision and QoL outcomes.
