NCT01154816
This phase II trial is studying the side effects of and how well alisertib works in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors or leukemia. Alisertib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT00806286
The study has a safety and a Phase 2 portion. In the safety portion of the study, subjects with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer will be treated with study drug (CS-7017) in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel to evaluate safety. In the Phase 2 portion of the study, subjects will receive study drug (CS-7017) or placebo in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel to evaluate effectiveness and safety. The study will find out if adding CS-7017 to carboplatin and paclitaxel will be safe and improve progression free survival in subjects with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT00756106
RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as MRI, may help in learning how well radiation therapy and chemotherapy work in killing tumor cells and allow doctors to plan better treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying MRI scans to see how well they evaluate the effects of radiation therapy and chemotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme or anaplastic glioma.
NCT03154112
The measurement of how much oxygen a baby consumes provides important information about the health of the baby, and of how much energy they are consuming. Currently, there is no device which measures either oxygen consumption, or another variable that depends on oxygen consumption - resting energy expenditure - in neonates or infants. Our group has developed a new device which can attach to any ventilator and measures these two variables with accuracy in the preclinical setting, including in rodents as small as severely preterm infants. The purpose of this study is to compare measurements of oxygen consumption and energy expenditure in neonates using this device and comparing it with a gold standard which is rarely used, a Douglas bag method in which expired gas is collected and later analyzed.
NCT03473886
Specific Aim #1 (Feasibility; primary aim): To assess the feasibility of the positive psychology (PP)-motivational interviewing (MI) group-based physical activity intervention and outcome assessments in patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Hypothesis: The PP exercises and MI-based goal-setting sessions will be feasible: most (≥50%) of participants will complete 6/8 exercises/sessions. Furthermore, we will be able to obtain objective physical activity measurement follow-up data from at least 80% of enrolled participants at 8 weeks. Specific Aim #2 (Acceptability): To assess whether the intervention is acceptable to participants, as measured by ratings provided after each PP and MI exercise. Hypothesis: The intervention will be acceptable: participants will rate each PP and MI exercise with a mean score of at least 7 out of 10 on ratings of ease of completion and helpfulness. Specific Aim #3 (Outcomes): To assess whether this preliminary intervention appears to result in improvement of physical activity, related health behaviors (sedentary time, diet quality), and psychological well-being (optimism, positive affect, anxiety, depression). Hypothesis: The intervention will lead to improvements in physical activity, related health behaviors, optimism and positive affect, and reductions in depression and anxiety at 8 weeks compared to baseline.
NCT02160288
The purpose of this study is to determine if Botulinum Toxin-A (Botox) injection will improve symptoms of constipation in obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS).
NCT03022331
The term 'aortitis' refers to inflammation of the aorta. Aortitis is known to occur in a variety of vasculitides and connective tissue diseases, such as giant cell arteritis (GCA), Takayasu arteritis (TAK), rheumatoid arthritis, and spondyloarthropathies, among others. This study will establish a longitudinal cohort for these diseases.
NCT02666664
The purpose of this study is to see if ETC-1002 (bempedoic acid) is safe and well-tolerated versus placebo in patients with high cardiovascular risk and elevated LDL cholesterol that is not adequately controlled by their current therapy.
NCT01081015
The purpose of the Connect™ Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) Disease Registry is to explore the history and real world management of patients diagnosed with CLL, provide insight into the management of CLL, and evaluate the effectiveness of first, second and subsequent therapeutic strategies employed in both the community and academic settings.
NCT01583374
Apremilast is a new, orally available, small molecule drug that specifically inhibits phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), an enzyme that modulates inflammatory cytokines. This clinical study tests whether apremilast can improve the signs and symptoms of ankylosing spondylitis.
NCT01403298
The purpose of this project is to compare the effect of a family-based HIV prevention program to the effect of an adolescent-only health promotion program on adolescent HIV risk and marijuana use among adolescents enrolled in the Juvenile Drug Court (JDC) of the Rhode Island Family Court.
NCT02654769
The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and therapeutic equivalence of generic ingenol mebutate gel, 0.05% to Picato gel, 0.05% and to establish the superiority of the efficacy of these two products over the vehicle gel in the treatment of Actinic Keratosis (AK) on the trunk or extremities.
NCT03123471
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of the efficacy and safety of apremilast (CC-10004) in subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis of the scalp. Approximately 300 subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis of the scalp will be randomized 2:1 to receive either apremilast 30 mg twice daily (BID) or placebo for the first 16 weeks.
NCT02174172
This global, multicenter, open-label study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of atezolizumab in combination with other immune-modulating therapies in the treatment of selected advanced or metastatic malignancies. The atezolizumab plus ipilimumab arm (Arm A) will focus primarily on participants with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The atezolizumab plus interferon alfa-2b arm (Arm B), plus pegylated interferon alfa-2a (PEG-interferon alfa-2a, Arm C), and atezolizumab plus PEG-interferon Alfa-2a plus bevacizumab (Arm D) will enroll participants with advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC), metastatic NSCLC and melanoma. The atezolizumab plus obinutuzumab) (Arm E) will enroll participants with recurrent and/or metastatic (R/M) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Atezolizumab will be administered as intravenous (IV) infusion every 3 weeks (q3w).
