NCT00411528
The objective of this study is to assess the response of patupilone plus prednisone compared to docetaxel plus prednisone on prostate specific antigen (PSA) in patients with metastatic hormone refractory prostate cancer. Additionally, this study will assess the response on measureable disease and the effects on patient-reported outcomes.
NCT01482143

NCT01775735
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of occipital nerve stimulation (ONS) using the Boston Scientific Corporation (BSC) Precision™ System in the management of intractable chronic migraine, when used in conjunction with anti-migraine medications.
NCT00503581
This randomized phase II trial is studying how well megestrol works in treating patients with endometrial neoplasia or endometrial hyperplasia. Estrogen can cause the growth of endometrial cancer cells. Hormone therapy using megestrol may fight endometrial cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the abnormal cells.
NCT02418754
The primary objective of the study was to explore the effect of REGN2176-3 on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Scale (ETDRS) best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in participants with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD), compared to intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) monotherapy. The secondary objectives of the study were the following: * To explore the effect of 2 dose levels of IVT REGN2176-3 on anatomical changes of CNV in participants with nAMD compared to IAI monotherapy (at week 12) * To evaluate if short-term treatment with REGN2176-3 followed by IAI monotherapy offered the same or additional benefit compared to continuous treatment with REGN2176-3. Also to determine if there was benefit in initiating IAI treatment prior to REGN2176-3 compared to continuous treatment with IAI. * To assess the safety and tolerability of IVT REGN2176-3 in participants with nAMD
NCT02532517
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate effectiveness and safety of the CODMAN ENTERPRISE® Vascular Reconstruction Device and Delivery System.
NCT02961894
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Revolution™ Peripheral Atherectomy System in the treatment of infrainguinal lower extremity peripheral arterial occlusive disease. This Atherectomy system will be used on eligible patients with stenosis of at least 70% diameter reduction to evaluate the change in stenosis after the procedure (effectiveness) and the presence of any major adverse events (safety) for up to 30 days after the procedure.
NCT00033280
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining chemotherapy and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining temozolomide with radiation therapy in treating patients who have newly diagnosed anaplastic oligodendrogliomas or mixed anaplastic oligoastrocytomas.
NCT01908751
The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of surgical fixation (cancellous screws versus sliding hip screws) and biologic intervention (Vitamin D versus placebo) on patient important outcomes.
NCT01888874
Participants suffering from active rheumatoid arthritis despite continued treatment with methotrexate were evaluated for improvement of disease activity (efficacy) when taking GLPG0634 (3 different doses - 50 milligram \[mg\], 100 mg and 200 mg daily -, each evaluated as once daily \[QD\] and twice daily \[BID\] regimen) or matching placebo for 24 weeks. •During the course of the study, patients were also examined for any side effects that could occur (safety and tolerability), and the amount of GLPG0634 present in the blood (Pharmacokinetics) as well as the effects of GLPG0634 on disease- and mechanism of action-related parameters in the blood (Pharmacodynamics) were determined. Also, the effects of different doses and dose regiments of GLPG0634 administration on participants' disability, fatigue, and quality of life were evaluated.
NCT03304106
Use of Artificial Intelligent (AI) technology to assist audiologists in programming cochlear implants.
NCT03921879
This research study will test OT-82, which is an investigational ("research" or "experimental" ) drug. The study has two stages (Stage 1 and Stage 2). The purpose of Stage 1 is to determine the safety and tolerability and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or the maximum tested dose of OT-82 administered orally to participants. The purpose of Stage 2 is to determine the preliminary efficacy of OT-82 in relapsed or refractory lymphoma at the MTD or the maximum tested dose. Both parts of the study will also evaluate the pharmacokinetics (absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination) of OT-82. OT-82 treatment slowed the growth, reduced the size, or in some cases cured certain cancers in animal studies. It is hoped that participants with relapsed or refractory lymphoma treated with OT - 82 in this study will experience slowing tumor growth and/or reduction of tumor size.
NCT01426919
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the utility of the Banyan UCH-L1/GFAP Detection Assay as an aid in the evaluation of suspected traumatic brain injury (Glasgow Coma Scale score 9-15) in conjunction with other clinical information within 12 hours of injury to assist in determining the need for a CT scan of the head.
NCT01688050
The TRANSFIX study is a clinical trial approved by US FDA to study the safety and effectiveness of the Zenith® TX2® Low Profile Endovascular Graft for treatment of Blunt Thoracic Aortic Injury.
NCT00790582
This is a Phase II screening study of lithium carbonate in ALS. The purpose of this study is to find out if lithium carbonate is safe to be used in people with ALS and if it can slow the progression of the disease. Since there is no placebo in this study, all patients will be taking lithium carbonate.
NCT03162354
To increase the accuracy of doctors' decisions to launch or forgo child abuse evaluations in their young, acutely head-injured patients, investigators have derived and validated a clinical decision rule (CDR) that detects abusive head trauma (AHT) with 96% sensitivity in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) settings. This "CDR Implementation Trial" across eight PICU sites will assess the CDR's actual impact on AHT screening accuracy, identify factors associated with maximal physician acceptance and application of this novel AHT screening tool, and assess the sustainability of active CDR implementation strategies.
NCT01562899
This is a multi-center, open-label, phase Ib/II study. First, the aim of the phase Ib part is to estimate the MTD(s) and/or to identify the recommended phase II dose(s) (RP2D) for the combination of MEK162 and AMG 479 (ganitumab), followed by the phase II part to assess the clinical efficacy and to further assess the safety of the combination in selected patient populations. The dose escalation part of the study will be guided by a Bayesian Logistic Regression Model (BLRM). At least 18 patients are expected to be enrolled in the dose escalation part. Following MTD/ RP2D declaration, patients will be enrolled in three phase II arms to assess efficacy of the combination as well as to better understand the safety, tolerability, PK, antibody concentrations and PD of the combination at MTD/RP2D. Phase II arm 1 will consist of approximately 25 patients with KRAS-mutant colorectal adenocarcinoma. Phase II arm 2 will consist of approximately 20 patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Phase II arm 3 will consist of approximately 28 patients with mutant BRAFV600 melanoma. Patients will be treated until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity develops, or withdrawal of informed consent, whichever occurs first. All patients will be followed up - at minimum patients must complete the safety follow-up assessments 30 days after the last dose of the study treatment.
NCT01485588
