NCT03914677
This is a preliminary study of the antihypertensive drug mecamylamine, used in the specific circumstance of hypertension caused by autonomic dysreflexia (AD), a condition that affects people with spinal cord injury (SCI). Initially, mild sensory stimulation of subjects' legs is used to intentionally provoke AD, as reflected by blood pressure elevation during such stimulation. In subsequent testing sessions, mecamylamine is given prior to sensory stimulation, to show the effect of the drug on preventing these AD-related blood pressure elevations.
NCT02604810
This study was designed to determine a dose of weekly subcutaneously administered Immune Globulin Subcutaneous (Human), 20% Caprylate/Chromatography Purified (Grifols) (IGSC 20%) that produces steady-state AUC of total IgG that was non-inferior to that of the regularly administered intravenous dose of Immune Globulin Injection (Human), 10% Caprylate/Chromatography Purified (Grifols) (IGIV-C 10%) in primary immunodeficiency subjects. This study was also designed to determine steady state trough total IgG levels after IGSC 20% infusion and after IGIV-C 10% infusion for comparison and to assess the safety and tolerability of IGSC 20%.
NCT00301821
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as epratuzumab and rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving monoclonal antibody therapy together with chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.\> PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving monoclonal antibody therapy together with combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with stage II, stage III, or stage IV diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
NCT00003612
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining paclitaxel, carboplatin, and trastuzumab in treating women who have metastatic breast cancer that overexpresses HER2.
NCT02223455
Hand hygiene is the single most effective practice in preventing the spread of hospital-acquired infections. Despite the strength of the evidence, hospital staff continue to sanitize their hands less than half of the time required by guidelines. Effective interventions are needed to improve hand hygiene compliance rates among hospital staff, but most are of poor quality and do not examine the specific effects of individual interventions. This study will build a "bundle" of three hand hygiene interventions using a research design that allows for the effectiveness of each intervention to be measured individually and combined.
NCT01751737
This research study will access the using of a radiotracer, 18F-choline PET/CT and MRI for prostate cancer in patients undergoing diagnostic prostate biopsy. Patients receive MRI guided prostate biopsies and metabolomic profiling of prostate biopsy tissues.
NCT01127633
This study is an open-label extension study in Alzheimer's patients who have completed participation in either solanezumab Clinical Trial H8A-MC-LZAM (NCT00905372) or H8A-MC-LZAN (NCT00904683).
NCT02326272
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of two dose levels of certolizumab pegol in adults with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis.
NCT01900665
To test the idea that solanezumab will slow the cognitive decline of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) as compared with placebo in participants with mild AD.
NCT02227784
The purpose of the ACCENTUATE study is to evaluate whether the study drug known as evacetrapib is effective in treating participants with high cholesterol and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and/or diabetes.
NCT03120520
This is a study of efficacy and safety of Plecanatide in pediatric subjects aged 12 to \< 18 years diagnosed with Chronic Idiopathic Constipation.
NCT00450918
Mucociliary clearance, in which mucus secretions are cleared from the breathing airways, is the primary defense mechanism for the lungs. Inhaled particles, including microbes that can cause infections, are normally entrapped in mucus on the airway surfaces and then cleared out by the coordinated action of tiny hair-like structures called cilia. Individuals with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) have defective mucociliary clearance, which in turn leads to lung infections and disease. The purpose of this study is to determine how lung disease progresses over time in children and adolescents with PCD.
NCT01673711
This clinical trial studies deuterated phenanthrene tetraol in smokers who are at high risk for lung cancer. Studying samples of urine in the laboratory from smokers who are at high risk for lung cancer may help doctors learn more about biomarkers related to cancer.
NCT01938014
Hypothesis: Children diagnosed with a lysosomal disease will exhibit developmental, adaptive, and behavioral strengths and difficulties depending upon 1) biomedical risk factors (i.e. the specific genetic disorder responsible for the illness); 2) available modifying interventions, whether medical or behavioral; and 3) social risks in the children's families, neighborhoods and communities. A valid and reliable telephone-based surveillance system can successfully collect the data required to elucidate these developmental, adaptive and behavioral strengths and difficulties.
NCT00596011
The purpose of this study was to determine whether the daily consumption of decaffeinated green tea catechins (Polyphenon E®) for 1 year reduces the rate of progression to prostate cancer (PCa) in men diagnosed with HGPIN or ASAP. The aim was to recruit and treat 240 (120 men/arm) men diagnosed with the prostate condition HGPIN or ASAP with a capsule form of standardized green tea extract called Polyphenon E or placebo for a 12-month period and see if it can prevent progression of the prostate condition to prostate cancer. Investigators wanted to see if Polyphenon E reduces lower urinary tract symptoms and if this can be taken safely over one year. Investigators wanted to study how Polyphenon E is able to slow the progression to prostate cancer, or the mechanism of action of Polyphenon E. If the safety and the effects of Polyphenon E on slowing down the progression of prostate cancer is shown in our study, this will be a safe way of treating men who are at high risk or men like you who have a prostate condition that increases your chances of getting prostate cancer, so that we can prevent prostate cancer in the future.
NCT01602224
The purpose of this study is to evaluate an investigational drug called tabalumab in participants with Multiple Myeloma (MM) who have tried at least one other therapy in the past. Tabalumab will be given in combination with standard doses of two other drugs that are often used to treat MM. Study doctors will collect information about the effectiveness and side effects of this therapy.
NCT02137200
The investigators propose a large, multicenter, randomized clinical trial of immediate versus delayed pushing for nulliparous women in labor at term reaching complete cervical dilation. The central hypothesis is that immediate pushing in the second stage of labor increases spontaneous vaginal delivery, shortens duration of the second stage, and reduces adverse neonatal and maternal outcomes in nulliparous women. They will pursue the following specific aims: 1) Assess the effectiveness of immediate pushing at complete cervical dilation on the rate of spontaneous vaginal delivery in nulliparous women (Primary Aim), 2) Determine the effect of immediate pushing on the rate of neonatal composite morbidity (Secondary Aim #1), and 3) Determine the impact of immediate versus delayed pushing on objective and subjective measures of maternal pelvic floor morbidity (Secondary Aim #2). They estimate that randomizing a total of 3184 women will provide adequate statistical power to detect meaningful differences in the primary and secondary outcomes.
NCT03094780
This study will use video technology in conjunction with in-person participation. This is a pilot project, where all enrolled participants will receive the multidisciplinary intervention. Participants (patients and caregivers) from Mayo Clinic Rochester will attend an in-person group session, and participants (patients and caregivers) from Mayo Clinic Florida or Northfield Mayo Clinic Radiation Oncology Center will participate through the use of video conferencing. The goals are to examine feasibility (percent of eligible patients and caregivers who enroll), attrition, and adherence (attend at least four of the six sessions), to determine any differences between the two formats, and to examine potential QOL differences as a result of the intervention.
