NCT02745392
This is a randomized, double-blind, multi-center, parallel-group study designed to compare the safety and efficacy of a range of doses of ZP-Zolmitriptan intracutaneous microneedle systems to placebo.
NCT02349139
This study will be conducted in three parts. Part A is a dose-escalation study to determine two safe and tolerable doses of ASN001 for men with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer. Part A will also characterize the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the ASN001 through blood sampling. Subjects in Part B will receive one of two doses identified in Part A to determine which one is more effective, and collect additional pharmacokinetic data. Part C is an extension for subjects completing either Part A or B.
NCT00253630
This phase II trial is studying how well vorinostat works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT00658359
This is a study that will follow transplant patients from Study A3921030 to monitor for long term safety, tolerability and efficacy for 5 additional years, except in Portugal where the study will follow transplant patients through Month 36 posttransplant. Patients will continue their study medications that were previously assigned.
NCT00719303
This randomized phase III trial studies whether changes in diet and physical activity can increase the length of survival without the return of cancer (progression-free survival) compared with usual care in patients with previously treated stage II, III, or IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. A healthy diet and physical activity program and counseling may help patients make healthier lifestyle choices. It is not yet known whether changes in diet and exercise may help increase progression-free survival in patients with previously treated cancer.
NCT02741895
This study will evaluate whether information on postoperative ambulation from Fitbits can improve surgeons' ability to monitor ambulation and identify patients at risk for prolonged length of stay, 30-day readmissions, and discharge to transitional care after major surgery.
NCT02031406
A significant portion of avoidable healthcare expenditures has been attributed to preventable hospital readmissions; thus, reducing hospital readmission rates has become a national healthcare agenda item. Despite much study of this topic, efforts to date have not been especially fruitful in either predicting which patients will require hospital readmission. Preventing readmissions has been even more difficult. We recently examined a pharmacist intervention that assessed patients' medication literacy and adherence at hospital admission. In this retrospective data, low medication adherence levels were predictive of hospital readmission. There was a non-significant trend between low medication literacy and increased hospital readmissions. We have now decided to prospectively study this intervention. Prospective study will allow for several improvements on our prior work. 1. We have consulted the literature to more carefully examine existing instruments to measure medication adherence and literacy. Based on this review, and based on our prior results, we have made adjustments to these instruments which should improve reliability, validity, and granularity. 2. In our retrospective work, our intervention of pharmacist counseling was not randomized. Although there were large differences in readmission rates between the patients selected to receive counseling and those who were not thought to require it, there may have been unmeasured confounding variables. Randomizing this intervention will greatly enhance the likelihood that we are comparing two similar groups of patients.
NCT02678286
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of N1539 in subjects with acute moderate to severe pain following abdominoplasty surgery.
NCT02859766
This study will evaluate the safety and characterize the systemic pharmacokinetics (PK) of free and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-bound abicipar following single and multiple intravitreal injections of abicipar pegol in treatment-naïve patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
NCT02327013
The purpose is to determine the effect of vortioxetine treatment on ADHD symptoms in adult patients with ADHD in a 12 weeks study.
NCT00077064
RATIONALE: Captopril is a drug that may be able to decrease side effects caused by radiation therapy, and may improve the quality of life of patients with non-small cell lung cancer or limited-stage small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well captopril works in decreasing side effects and improving the quality of life in patients who have received radiation therapy with or without chemotherapy for stage I, stage II, or stage IIIB non-small cell lung cancer or limited-stage small cell lung cancer.
NCT00408694
This phase II trial is studying how well giving bevacizumab together with cisplatin, radiation therapy, and fluorouracil works in treating patients with stage IIB, stage III, stage IVA, or stage IVB nasopharyngeal cancer. 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 nasopharyngeal cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving bevacizumab together with chemotherapy and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
NCT02366663
This randomized phase III trial studies 90-yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan and combination chemotherapy compared with combination chemotherapy alone before stem cell transplant in treating patients with diffuse large b-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement. Radioactive substances linked to monoclonal antibodies, such as 90-yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan, can bind to cancer cells and give off radiation which may help kill cancer cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carmustine, etoposide phosphate, cytarabine, and melphalan (BEAM), work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether 90-yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan and BEAM before a stem cell transplant are more effective than BEAM alone in treating patients with diffuse large b-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
NCT02223598
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, dose limiting toxicities, and maximum tolerated dose of CB-5083 in subjects with lymphoid hematological malignancies.
NCT00441090
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability, of AKR-501 (avatrombopag) tablets, as compared to placebo, in the treatment of participants with chronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP).
NCT02573467
This extension study will provide data to further evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of three doses of BYM338 and to assess the long-term effects of BYM338 in patients with sporadic inclusion body myositis. The extension study was planned to consist of a Screening epoch (to assess patient eligibility), followed by a Treatment Period 1 epoch (double-blind and placebo-controlled), and a Treatment Period 2 epoch (open-label). A Post-treatment Follow-up (FUP) epoch was also planned for patients who discontinued prematurely. Patients who complete the core study and qualify for this extension study entered Treatment Period 1 and continued on the study drug to which they were randomized in the core study (either to one of the three bimagrumab doses (1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, and 10mg/kg) or placebo) during Treatment Period 1. Thus, Treatment Period 1 was double-blind and placebo-controlled. Participants were to continue in Treatment Period 1 until the dose with the best benefit-risk profile was determined from the core study data and selected (duration of Treatment Period 1 was estimated to be between 6 and 8 months). Once the dose with the best benefit-risk profile was selected, all participants (including those who were receiving placebo) were planned to enter Treatment Period 2 and switch to open-label treatment with bimagrumab at the selected dose. The core study has been completed but since the core study did not meet the primary end point (no bimagrumab dose was identified based on the core study efficacy results) the extension study was terminated as per protocol/sponsor's decision; therefore, no patients had entered Treatment Period 2. Instead, all patients were to return for the End of Treatment Period 1 (EOT1) visit at their next scheduled visit. As per protocol, all patients who discontinued study medication during Treatment Period 1 for any reason, including due to the study having been stopped as per protocol/sponsor's decision, were to have entered and complete the 6-month FUP after their EOT1 visit. Due to the nature of the design of the core and extension studies and termination of study medication in the extension study, the treatment duration for individual patients varied considerably. Consequently, the number of patients contributing data to the efficacy analyses at Week 104 and later timepoints was decreased.
NCT00068250
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as methotrexate and temozolomide use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. Combining methotrexate, temozolomide, and rituximab with radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of temozolomide when given together with methotrexate and rituximab followed by radiation therapy and to see how well they work in treating patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma.
NCT01460134
This is a study of CDX-1127, a therapy that targets the immune system and may act to promote anti-cancer effects. The study enrolls patients with hematologic cancers (certain leukemias and lymphomas), as well as patients with select types of solid tumors.
NCT01642082
This phase II trial studies how well dalantercept works in treating patients with endometrial cancer that has come back or is persistent. Dalantercept may stop the growth of endometrial cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
