NCT00081796
The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine if RPR109881 is a better treatment than capecitabine (Xeloda) for advanced breast cancer in patients that no longer benefit from docetaxel and/or paclitaxel.
NCT00133224
The primary objective of this study is to compare the duration of survival between patients receiving docetaxel in combination with the GVAX® vaccine for prostate cancer versus patients receiving docetaxel and prednisone treatment in patients with prostate cancer who no longer respond to hormone therapy, who have documented metastases with pain. Patients may have had up to one prior non-taxane chemotherapy treatment.
NCT00615706
In the United States there has been a dramatic increase in the number of people who are obese and in the number of people who have asthma. Both are considered serious public health concerns. Several studies have shown that becoming obese or overweight can increase the risk of developing asthma or can make asthma symptoms more severe and difficult to control. How obesity affects asthma is not fully understood. This research study will examine whether obesity affects the amount of inflammation that is present in the lungs of people with asthma, and will also examine whether obesity leads to narrow and stiff airways. Participation in this study involves 2 visits in order to complete questionnaires, various pulmonary function tests, as well as the collection of blood, urine, and exhaled breath condensate specimens. This research study includes optional genetic and bronchoscopy substudies.
NCT00001132
The purpose of this study is to see if adding 1 drug to an anti-HIV drug combination early in treatment against HIV can lower the viral load (amount of HIV in the blood) to a level so low that it cannot be measured (undetectable). The drug that will be added to a treatment is abacavir (ABC). Many patients who take 3 anti-HIV drugs together are able to achieve very low viral loads, for example, viral loads below 50 copies/ml. However, some patients taking only 3 drugs are not able to achieve a viral load this low. Doctors hope that, by adding the drug ABC to a current treatment, a viral load below 50 copies/ml can be achieved. Doctors would like to find out if it is effective to start patients on 3 drugs and then add another drug (treatment intensification) if the treatment is not working as well as hoped.
NCT00297765
A study to determine the optimal dose and blood level of Prograf® in long-term maintenance of kidney transplant patients.
NCT00406952
Purpose of the study is to evaluate use of electronic diaries and voice acoustics for use in future depression clinical trial. Focus is on increased precision of measurement.
NCT00072982
The object of this study is to determine whether treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with a combination of fish oil and borage seed oil is superior to treatment with either oil alone. This study will also investigate the biochemical, immunological, and molecular mechanism responsible for the therapeutic effects of these fatty acids. Each patient will be followed for eighteen months.
NCT00000966
To evaluate the effectiveness and toxicity of oral azithromycin and pyrimethamine as acute therapy for toxoplasmic encephalitis in AIDS patients. To assess the toxicity and effectiveness of azithromycin alone as maintenance therapy. Encephalitis caused by Toxoplasma gondii is the most frequent cause of focal central nervous system infection in patients with AIDS. Untreated, the encephalitis is fatal. Standard treatment for toxoplasmic encephalitis is associated with serious adverse effects. Thus, alternative treatments are needed.
NCT00069901
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CT-2103 (poly(L)glutamate-paclitaxel) in combination with carboplatin for the treatment of patients with Stage III or IV ovarian or primary peritoneal cancer.
NCT00328432
To assess the effects of short term administration of celecoxib 400 mg bid between biopsy and reexcision.
NCT00000669
To determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of 2',3'-dideoxyinosine (ddI), given orally and intravenously, in infants and children with AIDS. The study also measures bloodstream and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of the administered drug, and provides a preliminary assessment of the effectiveness of ddI on HIV replication. AMENDED: Based on safety established in the first dosing phase of 52 weeks and long term dosing data in adults, the dosing period will be extended to 104 weeks. Original design: Information presently available indicates that ddI has high antiviral activity with less apparent toxicity than zidovudine (AZT) (the drug presently used to treat AIDS).
NCT00170469
This is a dose ranging study comparing different vaccine schedules of rPA vaccine, for Anthrax, to the licensed dose of AVA, another Anthrax vaccine. Safety and the capability to induce an immune response will be evaluated.
NCT00269516
This study is a multicenter, randomized, double blind, parallel group study of 6 months' treatment with SLV308 administered as a monotherapy in patients with early stage PD. An open label safety extension to this study is planned as a separate protocol for patients who are willing and eligible to participate.
NCT00471172
The aim of the study was to compare 5 methods of delivering a weight loss lifestyle modification program to obese patients on a background of sibutramine. The methods differed in the type and frequency of counseling utilized to deliver dietary, physical activity and behavioral recommendations for weight loss.
NCT00004736
The purpose of this study is to see if a type of anti-HIV therapy called HAART is effective in lowering levels of HIV and boosting the immune system in HIV-infected patients with tuberculosis (TB). HIV-infected patients with TB have higher levels of HIV and lower CD4 cell counts (cells in the body that fight infection) than HIV-infected patients without TB. HAART has been effective in reducing HIV levels and increasing CD4 cells in patients without TB. However, its effects in HIV-infected patients with TB are unknown.
NCT00603707
Our null hypothesis states that the two techniques (Sitzmarks radioopaque markers and SmartPill) are equivalent and is demonstrated if the study population shows a correlation of 0.7 or higher.
NCT00503789
Infants will be fed infant formula and stool characteristics assessed.
NCT00016445
OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the effect of growth hormone on height, height velocity, body weight, and lean body mass in patients with cystic fibrosis. II. Determine the effect of growth hormone on pulmonary function in these patients. III. Determine the impact of this drug on the quality of life in these patients. IV. Determine if the clinical response from this drug is sustained in these patients.
NCT00205894
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a implantable device, called the bion(R), in the treatment of chronic headache. The bion microstimulator is placed underneath the skin next to the greater occipital nerve. The bion microstimulator then stimulates the nerve by generating small amounts of electrical current.
NCT00044824
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of fexofenadine 120mg BID compared to placebo in the treatment of subjects with mild to moderate persistent asthma
