NCT02349061
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ustekinumab as measured by a reduction in disease activity for subjects with active Active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE - chronic disorder of connective tissue in which there can be skin rash, arthritis, kidney problems, and anemia, among other problems).
NCT03037203
This study is a 4-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending dose, 4-period crossover study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and PK of JZP-110 (75, 150, and 300 mg) in the treatment of excessive sleepiness in adult subjects with idiopathic PD.
NCT03694314
The aim of this feasibility study is to determine whether a nutritional intervention in children and their parents can improve their sleep quality and behavior. The study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel trial of omega-3 supplementation to children and their mothers.
NCT01686438
Insomnia is commonly present in Veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Treatment of insomnia with a specialized type of psychotherapy has been shown to be more effective than treatment with medications. Unfortunately, few psychologists are trained to provide this treatment, limiting Veterans' access to care, especially those Veterans in remote and rural areas. This project will evaluate the ability to deliver this psychotherapy to groups of Veterans by video teleconferencing. Groups of Veterans with PTSD and chronic insomnia will receive the psychotherapy treatment either by meeting in-person with the psychologist or by the psychologist delivering the treatment by video teleconferencing. Finding that video teleconferencing is a cost effective way to deliver this treatment could add an important new component to the care of Veterans with PTSD that provides an alternative to medications.
NCT00137969
This is a Phase II/III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rituximab compared with placebo when combined with a single stable background immunosuppressive medication in subjects with moderate to severe systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The primary efficacy endpoint of the trial will be evaluated at 52 weeks.
NCT01482351
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been linked to increased risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD), but little prospective evidence exists on the effects of OSA treatment in preclinical AD. The objective was to determine if CPAP treatment adherence, controlling for baseline differences, predicts cognitive and everyday function after 1 year in older adults with MCI and to determine effect sizes for a larger trial. The aim of the Mild Cognitive Impairment and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (Memories 1) trial was to determine whether CPAP treatment adherence, controlling for any baseline differences in OSA severity, ApoE4, and other previously identified demographic and patient factors, might predict cognitive and everyday function after 1 year in older adults with amnestic MCI.
NCT01262365
The primary objective of the study is to confirm the clinical efficacy of epratuzumab in the treatment of subjects with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
NCT04126629
This study aims to assess the prevalence of sleep disorder breathing in pregnant women with a singleton gestation who develop hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (HDP) compared to women without HDP, when matched for gestational age and body mass index.
NCT02708095
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the study drug known as baricitinib in participants with systemic lupus erythematosus.
NCT02070978
This is a multicenter, double-blind, Phase 2b, long-term extension (LTE) to the ADDRESS II core trial (EMR 700461-023) (NCT01972568), to evaluate long-term safety and tolerability of atacicept in participants with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Participants who completed the 24-week core study ADDRESS II core study (NCT01972568) and thus not met any of the discontinuation criteria were invited to enter this long-term extension (LTE) study NCT02070978.
NCT02176486
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of ixazomib when administered as multiple oral doses at escalating dose levels in participants with lupus nephritis.
NCT02725515
The purpose of this study is to determine the ability of XmAb5871 to maintain Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) disease activity improvement achieved by a brief course of disease-suppressing steroid therapy
NCT02066311
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the body's immune system attacks different parts of the body. SLE is characterized by inflammation that leads to tissue damage in different organ systems. Any organ system may be involved, including the skin, the joints, the kidneys, the nervous system, the heart, the lungs, and the blood. The exact cause of SLE is not known. Patients with SLE often have elevated levels of anti-double stranded DNA antibodies. These levels are often associated with disease flares and disease severity. These antibodies can bind to tissue leading to organ damage. Preventing these antibodies from binding to their targets may help decrease disease activity. Protease inhibitors are medications that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the treatment of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). Nelfinavir (also called viracept) is one of these protease inhibitors. Separate from their anti-viral effects, protease inhibitors have been found to decrease inflammation. These medications have been shown to interfere with binding of anti-double stranded DNA antibodies to their targets and may decrease inflammation in SLE. This research study tests whether the protease inhibitor, nelfinavir, will decrease anti-double stranded DNA antibody binding and decrease disease activity.
NCT02437890
Primary objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of different dose regimens of ALX-0061 administered subcutaneously (s.c.) to subjects with moderate to severe active, seropositive systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) compared to placebo. Secondary objectives: To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), immunogenicity, flare rate, steroid reduction and health-related quality of life, with different dose regimens of ALX-0061.
NCT00594022
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a small electrical current to the vestibular nerve (balance organ) will decrease the time it take for participants to fall asleep.
NCT01621802
The purpose of this study is to support licensure of GSK Biologicals' MMR vaccine (Priorix®) in the US by generating immunogenicity and safety data in contrast to the US standard of care, Merck's MMR vaccine (M-M-R®II), when given as a second dose to children four to six years of age.
NCT02119156
This study will assess the effect of a 24-week withdrawal followed by a 28-week reintroduction of belimumab 10 mg/kg plus standard of care medications in subjects with stable low systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease activity. Rebound phenomenon will be assessed for subjects who have permanently withdrawn from further belimumab treatment.
NCT03288376
This is a prospective multipart clinical performance study to compare the ability of the SnoreSounds algorithm with polysomnography (PSG) and a type III Home Sleep Testing (HST) device to identify patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

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).
NCT03427151
this study extension objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a 200-mcg dose every 4 weeks for 24 weeks of IPP-201101 in patients with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who had participated in the main study IP-005.
