NCT02973087
The purpose of this phase 3 study is to investigate the efficacy and safety, including immunogenicity, thrombogenicity and hypersensitivity reactions, as well as pharmacokinetics (PK), health related quality of life (HRQoL) and pharmacoeconomics of prophylactic treatment with recombinant von Willebrand factor (rVWF) (vonicog alfa) in adult participants with severe von Willebrand disease (VWD).
NCT04991441
Chronic volume overload (VO) is a primary factor responsible for the excessive cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. VO is caused in part by excessive fluid intake that is secondary to the consumption of a high salt diet. HD patients are often counselled to restrict their dietary sodium intake to help manage thirst and reduce their interdialytic weight gain (IDWG). However, data from recently published investigations demonstrate that dietary counseling alone may be ineffective. The objective of this randomized controlled trial is to determine if short-term feeding of low-sodium meals can "prime" changes in long-term nutrition behavior. It is hypothesized that feeding low-sodium meals for one month will significantly reduce IDWG and related outcomes, and continued dietary counseling and education support for 6 months will result in a sustained reduction in sodium intake upon patient resumption of meal responsibility. HD patients will be recruited and randomized to 2 groups: 1) Low-sodium meal feeding plus dietary counseling; or 2) a weight-list control group that will initially receive dietary counseling alone. IDWG will serve as the primary outcome with fluid volume overload, intradialytic hypotension, cramping, dietary sodium intake, sodium taste sensitivity and preference, and sodium self-efficacy evaluated at 1 and 6 months. This outcomes of this investigation will provide the first data on whether meal provision is an effective tool for dietary modeling and prolonged behavior change in HD patients.
NCT02633046
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a condition that harms the kidney "filters" that remove waste from the blood. Proteins are supposed to stay in the blood. Damaged "filters" let protein get into the kidney. FSGS is a serious condition that can lead to kidney failure. The only treatment for kidney failure is dialysis or kidney transplant. Proteinuria means too much protein came through the kidneys into the urine. If the doctor cannot figure out what is causing the problem, it is primary (idiopathic) FSGS. This kind of FSGS is very hard to treat. This study will test Acthar in patients with this condition who have not responded to other treatments. It primarily investigates how well the therapy is tolerated by the patients and how well they respond to this treatment.
NCT00599638
Pregabalin is an alpha-2 delta ligand approved for the treatment of neuropathic pain, however, not all patients will respond to this drug. This study will compare the efficacy of pregabalin when administered with an experimental drug PF-00489791, in patients with post-herpetic neuralgia. The efficacy of this combination will be compared to pregabalin alone.
NCT03131453
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of CNP520 on cognition, global clinical status, and underlying AD pathology, as well as the safety of CNP520, in people at risk for the onset of clinical symptoms of AD based on their age, APOE genotype and elevated amyloid.
NCT02738281
The purpose of this study is to advance understanding of the natural history of Rett syndrome (RTT), MECP2-duplication disorder (MECP2 Dup), CDKL5, FOXG1, and individuals with MECP2 mutations who do not have RTT including the range of clinical involvement and to correlate genotype-phenotype over a broad spectrum of phenotypes. While much has been learned about RTT, improvements are required in understanding the role of factors such as X chromosome inactivation, genetic background, and others including the environment, on the great variability observed even between individuals with the same MECP2 mutation. These data will be essential to the development and conduct of clinical trials that are anticipated from ongoing studies in animal models for RTT. This study will not include clinical trials, but should set the stage for such trials and other translational research projects (e.g., development of biomarkers).
NCT02705677
The overarching purpose of this study is to advance understanding of the natural history of Rett syndrome (RTT), MECP2-duplication disorder (MECP2 Dup), RTT-related disorders including CDKL5, FOXG1, and individuals with MECP2 mutations who do not have RTT. Although all these disorders are the result of specific genetic changes, there remains broad clinical variation that is not entirely accounted for by known biological factors. Additionally, clinical investigators currently do not have any biomarkers of disease status, clinical severity, or responsiveness to therapeutic intervention. To address these issues, biological materials (DNA, RNA, plasma, cell lines) will be collected from affected individuals and in some cases from unaffected family members, initial evaluation performed to identify additional biological factors contributing to disease severity, and these materials will be stored for future characterization.
NCT03739216
A multi-center, prospective, non-randomized, observational registry to asses the results of the ClariFix(TM) device when used to ablate unwanted tissue in the nose of subjects with chronic rhinitis.
NCT01232361
The main purpose of this study is to find out how stimulant medications (methylphenidate or amphetamine/ dextroamphetamine) for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)are processed in HIV-1 infected and HIV-uninfected children and adolescents.
NCT03898791
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended phase 2 dose of LY3295668 erbumine in participants with platinum-sensitive, extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer.
NCT02440789
The purpose of this study was to find out about the safety of sirolimus in individuals with HIV infection who were also being treated with ART. The investigators wanted to learn whether sirolimus decreases inflammation and immune activation in the body; whether sirolimus changes the level of HIV in the participants' blood; and how sirolimus interacts with ART in the blood. Sirolimus is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to prevent organ rejection in patients aged 13 years and older receiving kidney transplants. Sirolimus had also been used for the prevention of complications after stem cell transplants and as a treatment for certain kinds of cancers in HIV-infected patients.
NCT01928927
The main goal of this study was to see if a drug called telmisartan would decrease fibrosis (scarring) and inflammation (irritation) in people who are infected with HIV and doing well on their HIV medications. The study was also done to see what effects telmisartan has on other signs of disease and inflammation in the body, and to see whether people who have HIV can take telmisartan safely and without side effects that make them want to stop the drug. Telmisartan is FDA-approved for treating high blood pressure and decreasing the chance of heart attacks and strokes in people over the age of 55 years of age who are at high risk for these events.
NCT00999518
In a previous study in patients with interstitial cystitis/ painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS), tanezumab has shown to be efficacious in relieving the pain associated with IC/PBS, as well as some effect on reducing urinary urgency. Only one dose was studied, and tanezumab was well tolerated. In this study, the hypothesis being tested is that tanezumab will show efficacy at several doses on reducing pain with sufficient tolerability. Tanezumab's safety will also be assessed at different dose levels
NCT03358290
Study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of JTE-051 administered for 12 weeks in subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
NCT03005054
About 20 participants will be enrolled in this trial if they have had an accident that damages both the dermal (outside) and epidermal (inside) layers of skin on up to 49% of their body. This condition is called full-thickness complex skin defects resulting from acute traumatic skin loss. Participants will be treated with StrataGraft skin tissue to evaluate it's safety and effectiveness for use in treating full-thickness complex skin defects.
NCT03077308
The overall purpose of this project is to advance understanding of the neurophysiological features of Rett syndrome (RTT), MECP2 Duplication (MECP2 Dup) and RTT-related disorders (CDKL5, FOXG1) to gain insight into disease pathogenesis, with an emphasis on identifying biomarkers of disease evolution and severity. This specific study is intertwined to the core study Natural History of Rett Syndrome and Related Disorders (RTT5211), which characterizes range of clinical involvement and genotype-phenotype correlations and will provide phenotypical data for determining the clinical relevance of the neurophysiologic parameters; study subjects here are co- and primarily enrolled in RTT5211. The proposed studies will serve as basis of future translational investigations, including further refinement of biomarkers, development of outcome measures, and clinical trials per se.

NCT03172026
After stroke, the combination of progressive skills practice in an adequate dose, exercise for fitness, and reduced sedentary time will augment motor and cognitive outcomes. Sensorimotor and cognitive improvements after stroke often reach a general plateau by approximately 12 weeks after onset, however. Drugs that might enhance learning or neural repair, as well as other molecular and synaptic adaptations that occur during skills training and fitness exercise, might extend that recovery curve, although to date only fluoxetine has given any hint of this. Most trials have tested agents that modulate neurotransmitters. Several very recent preclinical experiments and observational studies in patients after stroke suggest that the commercially available medication, Maraviroc, a CCR5 antagonist, may augment skills learning during rehabilitation training, especially during the first three months after onset, by affecting CREB and synaptic plasticity. The investigators will carry out a randomized controlled trial of Maraviroc in patients with disabilities severe enough to have required inpatient stroke rehabilitation and, based on our preclinical data, who can start the drug intervention within 6 weeks of stroke onset. The investigators will compare usual post-stroke care plus placebo versus Maraviroc given for 8 weeks in 60 participants. However, to try to maximize the amount of practice that is most relevant to the primary outcome measurements and determine whether or not Maraviroc can enhance the effects of training, as hypothesized, all participants will be tele-monitored by mobile health devices and will receive weekly telephonic encouragement, based on device data, to walk, reduce sedentary time, and reach and grasp in the home in between usual care therapies. Compliance, serial motor changes over time, and self-management skills in making use of the telerehabilitation devices will be a nested substudy of feasibility of remote monitoring and feedback.
