NCT00644332
According to the American Heart Association (AHA) 2011 update of heart disease and stroke statistics, more than 9 million adult patients in the United States (US) have angina. This update also notes that a study of 4 national cross-sectional health examination studies found that, among Americans 40 to 74 years of age, the age-adjusted prevalence of angina was higher among women than men. Per ACC/AHA guidelines, the goal of antianginal therapy is the complete or near complete elimination of anginal chest pain and a return to normal activities and functional capacity. However, evaluating angina and responses to antianginal therapy is often not straightforward. This is particularly true of female patients with angina. Because angina and response to antianginal therapy may differ in men and women, an instrument designed specifically to address symptomatology in women with angina could enhance our understanding and characterization of angina and responses to therapy in this population. The current study will evaluate the validity, reliability, and responsiveness of the newly developed Women's Ischemia Symptom Questionnaire (WISQ) based on changes in angina symptomatology in a female angina population treated with ranolazine, compared with the widely used Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ).
NCT00780598
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tosedostat in elderly patients suffering from refractory or relapsed AML.
NCT00094055
This is a Phase 2 study being conducted at multiple centers in the United States. Patients having thyroid cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (i.e., metastatic) are eligible to participate. Patients must have disease that was not controlled by previous treatment with radioactive iodine (131I) or not be good candidates for such treatment. The purpose of the study is to test whether the angiogenesis inhibitor AG-013736 is an effective treatment for metastatic thyroid cancer as shown by the number of patients in the study who experience significant and durable tumor shrinkage.
NCT00093093
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of viramidine to ribavirin in chronic hepatitis C patients who have never before received treatment.
NCT00105937
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of OraVescent fentanyl to treat breakthrough pain episodes in cancer patients who are already opioid tolerant.
NCT00257205
This is a Phase 3, multi-national, open-label, 2-arm randomized study in patients with surgically incurable metastatic melanoma who have received no prior chemotherapy, or biochemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic disease. The primary objective of this trial is to compare overall survival for patients with advanced melanoma who are randomized to receive CP-675,206 with that of patients who are randomized to receive either dacarbazine or temozolomide (investigator choice)
NCT00024427
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving the drugs in different combinations may kill more tumor cells. Chemoprotective drugs such as triacetyluridine may protect normal cells from the side effects of chemotherapy. It is not yet known which chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating pancreatic cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of fluorouracil plus triacetyluridine with that of gemcitabine in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer that cannot be treated with surgery.
NCT00759057
This non-inferiority study will compare the clinical outcomes of subjects implanted with the Dynesys Spinal System versus the clinical outcomes of subjects implanted with an instrumented posterior lateral spinal fusion.
NCT00312845
The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of VELCADE and rituximab improves progression free survival relative to rituximab alone in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL) who never received rituximab or who have previously responded to rituximab. This is an international study being conducted in the United States and in many countries around the world. A complete list of study locations is listed below.
NCT01302587
This study is evaluating the effectiveness of a dose counter for an inhaler device used to deliver medication to people diagnosed with asthma or COPD.
NCT01008033
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of topical application of IDP-108 versus vehicle in treating patients with onychomycosis.
NCT00076011
The primary purpose of this protocol is to determine the activity of AG 013736 in patients with metastatic renal cell cancer who have received 1 prior cytokine-based therapy.
NCT00522938
This is an open-label, multicenter, multiple-dose, Phase I-II study of CHR-2797 co-administered with erlotinib in patients with histologically or pathologically confirmed Stage IIIB (with pleural effusion), Stage IV, or recurrent metastatic NSCLC. Throughout this protocol, "study medication" includes both CHR-2797 and erlotinib. This study will involve 2 distinct study phases. Study Phase A will assess safety and determine the MTD of the combination of CHR-2797 and erlotinib. In addition, PK profiles for the combination of CHR-2797 and erlotinib will be evaluated. In Study Phase B, the dose chosen based on the maximum tolerated dose established in Study Phase A will be administered in a single-arm treatment design in order to evaluate the efficacy of co-administration of CHR-2797 and erlotinib.
NCT00308711
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the misoprostol vaginal insert (50 mcg and 100 mcg) can safely and effectively speed time to vaginal delivery compared to Cervidil (R) in women who need to have cervical ripneing and induction of labor.
NCT00372489
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long term safety and tolerability of peginesatide for the maintenance of hemoglobin in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who had received at least 24 weeks of peginesatide treatment in an earlier study.
NCT00151385
This investigation will utilize a systematic determination of anti-FVIII antibody specificity in PTPs (\> 50 ED) with hemophilia A who have developed inhibitors in response to treatment with any FVIII product(s). A group of patients with hemophilia A, who have no evidence of current or prior FVIII inhibitor will be included for comparison. The objective of this study is to describe the patterns of antibodies and associated epitopes in the study population.
NCT01446198
The objective is to establish that APTIMA HPV Assay performance on the PANTHER System is comparable to performance on the TIGRIS System.
NCT00373113
To compare efficacy and safety of Sunitinib and Capecitabine in subjects with advanced breast cancer who failed both a taxane and an anthracycline chemotherapy regimen or failed with a taxane and for whom further anthracycline therapy is not indicated
NCT00539539
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether or not real-time feedback on CPR process variables will increase rates of restoration of spontaneous circulation during prehospital resuscitation and upon arrival at the receiving emergency room as well as increase rates of survival to hospital discharge.
NCT00298766
This is a phase 1/2 open-label, dose-escalation study investigating single-agent therapy with VELCADE in patients with previously treated systemic AL-amyloidosis who require further treatment.
