NCT02042443
This randomized phase II trial studies how well trametinib or combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with refractory or advanced biliary or gallbladder cancer or that cannot be removed by surgery. Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether giving trametinib is more effective than combination chemotherapy in treating patients with biliary or gallbladder cancer.
NCT01385787
This is a non-therapeutic study. Pediatric AML patients undergoing HCT with a myeloablative preparative regimen may be enrolled. Subjects can be enrolled 10-40 days prior to HCT. Three samples for MRD (measured by WT1 PCR and flow cytometry) will be collected from peripheral blood and bone marrow: 1) pre-HCT (\<3 weeks prior to starting the preparative regimen), 2) day 42 +/- 14 days post HCT (early post-engraftment), and 3) day 100 (+/-20 days) post HCT. For two years after transplant, the subject's follow-up data will be collected using the Research Level Forms in the CIBMTR Forms Net internet data entry system. The main objective is to determine whether there is any association between level of pre-transplant and post-transplant bone marrow MRD using WT1 and flow cytometry with 2-year event-free-survival, and to estimate the strength of that association in terms of the predictive accuracy of MRD. The investigators hypothesize that measurable MRD at either time point will be associated with decreased 2-year event-free survival.
NCT02200133
This randomized study will compare a personalized Survivorship Care Plan (SCP) template with usual care (no SCP). The investigators hypothesize that the personalized SCP that incorporates patient specific treatment exposures and provides a framework for long term followup based on those exposures and subsequent risks for late complications will enhance patient survivorship confidence in knowledge, increase adherence to recommended healthcare, improve health behaviors and reduce HCT-related emotional distress.
NCT02203032
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of guselkumab (CNTO 1959) in the treatment of participants with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis (scaly skin rash) who had inadequate response to ustekinumab.
NCT02915068
The investigators propose to modify and expand the internationally-recognized evidence-based Physician Asthma Care Education (PACE) program to make it a suitable tool for training primary care clinicians on the effective use of EHRs at the point of care. The investigators will first develop the EHR edition of PACE (EHR-PACE) through literature and expert review of best practices for clinicians interacting with patients in the presence of computer systems in the exam room. They will then establish the feasibility and potential impact of EHR-PACE via a randomized design on 125 patients of 20 physicians who receive the intervention on the following outcomes via survey 3 and 6 months post-intervention: patient satisfaction with the physician's performance, asthma control, and asthma-related quality of life. Outcomes will be assessed on patients, but physicians will receive the intervention. Patients will not know which arm their doctor was randomized to. The pilot trial will compare two groups of primary care physicians who see patients with asthma in clinics equipped with certified EHRs. It is hypothesized that patients of physicians who receive EHR-PACE training will achieve better outcomes compared to physicians who do not receive EHR-PACE.
NCT01677507
Glaucoma is a major cause of blindness. The inability to predict a patient's IOP response to medications is a critical barrier for the clinician to consistently provide highly effective IOP-based treatments. Current trial-and error approaches to glaucoma management are inefficient and have not addressed this barrier as there are no predictive factors for drug response. Our long-term goal is to improve outcomes by identifying biomarkers and environmental factors that profile a patient at risk for glaucoma by age-of-onset, rate of disease progression, "poor response" to treatment, and large IOP fluctuation. Our purpose of this research project is to address this critical barrier by focusing on physiological factors that predict IOP response to drugs.
NCT00791089
To determine if peri-operative treatment with omega-3 fatty acids is associated with a decrease in the incidence of early recurrences of atrial arrhythmias (within 30 days) and an improvement in probability of long-term maintenance of sinus rhythm after radiofrequency catheter ablation for Atrial Fibrillation.
NCT01517984
The study will compare how well transplanted kidneys work and the response of people's immune systems as tacrolimus, a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI), is withdrawn. In addition, this research study will evaluate whether reducing immunosuppression can decrease some of these side effects while still preventing rejection of the kidney.
NCT02712437
Women with early stage breast cancer may experience difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep. If this occurs for more than 4 weeks, these participants may have chronic insomnia. Chronic insomnia can lead to difficulty coping with stress, changes in mood, increased use of medications for sleep and an overall decrease in quality of life. The investigators have developed an internet-based website that is designed to help people manage symptoms typically experienced by breast cancer survivors, including insomnia, fatigue, pain and overall poor quality of life. The investigators want to learn whether this type of treatment can reduce chronic insomnia and improve the way subjects feel using both questionnaires and a special form of a wrist watch. This information may help the investigators better manage sleep difficulties in subjects who experience these symptoms after diagnosis of their breast cancer.
NCT00857545
This randomized phase II trial studies OPT-821 and vaccine therapy to see how well they work compared with OPT-821 alone in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or peritoneal cancer that has decreased or disappeared, but the cancer may still be in the body. Biological therapies, such as OPT-821, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Vaccines may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. It is not yet known whether OPT-821 is more effective with or without vaccine therapy in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or peritoneal cancer.
NCT00880399
This is a 6-week, randomised, multicenter, double-blind, placebo controlled, fixed dose parallel group study to assess the efficacy and safety of orvepitant (30 and 60 mg/day) versus placebo in subjects with a diagnosis of a Major Depressive Disorder, whose symptoms are considered moderate or severe. Following an initial screening visit, subjects fulfilling the study inclusion and exclusion criteria will enter a pre-treatment screening phase to permit evaluation of the laboratory and ECG assessments and to confirm eligibility for inclusion into the study. This screening phase will be a minimum of 7 days, but no longer than 21 days. At the completion of the screening period, eligible subjects will be randomised at the baseline visit to receive either orvepitant 30mg/day, orvepitant 60mg/day or placebo (equal chance of receiving any of the three possible treatments, i.e., a 1:1:1 ratio) for a six-week double-blind treatment phase. Those subjects randomised to receive placebo will receive study medication identical in appearance to that received by subjects assigned to receive orvepitant 30 or 60mg/day. Efficacy will be assessed via standard depression symptom and severity rating scales or questionaires. The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D) will be used as the primary measure. Secondary efficacy endpoints include the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (QIDS-SR) and the Clinical Global Impression- Global Improvement and Severity of Illness Scale (CGI-I and CGI-S, respectively). Safety will be assessed by monitoring for adverse events (side effects) and through periodic laboratory evaluations (blood tests), vital signs assessments (e.g., blood pressure, heart rate, temperature) and heart function measurements (electrocardiograms, or ECGs).
NCT02210325
This study will compare a single dose of oral solithromycin to the standard of care (intramuscular ceftriaxone plus oral azithromycin) in the treatment of patients with urogenital gonorrhea. A completed open-label Phase 2 study with single doses of solithromycin resulted in 100% microbiological eradication in male and female patients with uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea.
NCT01783483

NCT01021553
To determine if an on demand dosing of 50 mg or 150 mg of GSK557296 demonstrates superior efficacy with respect to duration of intra vaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) during an 8 week study period compared to placebo in men with primary premature ejaculation. An assessment of the safety and tolerability of all doses of GSK557296 will be performed as well as an assessment for change in the Index of Premature Ejaculation (IPE) from baseline and at the end of the 8 weeks of treatment. During the active treatment period study participants will be limited to a maximum of 40 doses of GSK557296, or placebo, spilt as 20 doses for both 4 week intervals.
NCT00362856
