NCT00711490
Objective: Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a frequent manifestation of diabetic retinopathy, a leading cause of blindness in the United States. The only proven treatment for DME is laser photocoagulation. Sirolimus has been shown to inhibit the production, signaling and activity of many growth factors relevant to the development of diabetic retinopathy. Therefore, this study will investigate the safety and efficacy of multiple sirolimus injections in patients with DME. Study Population: Eligibility criteria include central macular thickening \> 260 microns and visual acuity 20/32 or worse in one or both eyes. Design: Five participants will be enrolled into this open-label pilot study. After receiving a 20 μL (440 μg) subconjunctival injection in the study eye at baseline and Month 2, the participants will be re-evaluated every two months for at least one year for possible additional injections. During follow-up, participants will not undergo re-injection if they show significant clinical improvement or treatment success, defined as no intraretinal fluid or cysts present on optical coherence tomography (OCT) OR 100% reduction in excess retinal thickness over 260 microns on OCT OR no leakage on fluorescein angiography (FA). Beginning at Month 4, participants will be assessed for treatment failure, defined as loss of 15 or more letters of vision compared to baseline at two consecutive visits OR a 50% or greater increase in total retinal thickness as measured by OCT at two consecutive visits. Individual participants deemed treatment failures will continue receiving sirolimus injections, but will be allowed to receive focal laser therapy for any amenable leaking microaneurysms at Month 4. Beginning at Month 6, focal laser therapy will be permitted for both treatment failures and participants who do not meet the criteria of a treatment success. Participants will have the option of continuing treatment until a common termination date of one year. Outcome Measures: The primary outcome is the change in visual acuity in the study eye at six months compared to baseline. Secondary outcomes include changes in visual acuity in the study eye at one year as compared with baseline, changes in retinal thickness as measured by OCT and changes in fluid leakage in the macula as demonstrated by FA at six months, one year and throughout the study period in the study and fellow eyes. Safety outcomes include number and severity of systemic and ocular toxicities, adverse events and infections, and the number of participants withdrawn from study therapy.
NCT01004978
This randomized phase III trial studies chemoembolization and sorafenib tosylate to see how well they work compared with chemoembolization alone in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, mitomycin, and cisplatin, 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. Chemoembolization kills tumor cells by carrying drugs directly into blood vessels near the tumor and then blocking the blood flow to allow a higher concentration of the drug to reach the tumor for a longer period of time. Kinase inhibitors, such as sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals cancer cells to multiply. It is not yet known whether giving chemoembolization together with sorafenib tosylate is more effective than chemoembolization alone in treating patients with liver cancer.

NCT05772065
Latent Tuberculosis infection (LTBI) guidelines can be complex. LTBI-ASSIST is a web-based interactive tool to navigate US LTBI clinical practice guidelines in a patient-centered format that may guide clinical decision making around Latent TB care. The research goal is to determine the difference in reported confidence among trainees that are not experts in LTBI care. The investigators further aim to assess if access to the LTBI-ASSIST tool improves clinical decision making in a series of simulated case scenarios containing guideline-derived, multiple choice items, as well as assess the efficiency in navigating the scenarios - measured by time to complete the survey. The investigators proposed a randomized study design, in which an electronic survey/questionnaire with 4 case scenarios consisting of 14 multiple choice questions. Participants providing informed consent will be randomized to receiving access to either US Centers for Disease Control (CDC)/National Tuberculosis (TB) Controllers Association (NTCA) Guidelines or the LTBI-ASSIST online tool. Those in the experimental arm will further complete a 10 question System Usability Scale to assess usability of the LTBI-ASSIST tool. All Johns Hopkins medical trainees and residents will be eligible to participate.
NCT05681143
Mental health crises involve acute psychiatric states, such as aggression and/or self-injury, which can result in harm to self or others. There is evidence to suggest that 20% to 25% of autistic children are at risk of a mental health crises, however no crisis prevention programs exist for autistic children. The goal of this project is to evaluate, via a randomized design, a novel crisis prevention program.
NCT03674112
This is a Phase II, randomized, multicentre, multinational, open-label, cross-over study in adult patients who have completed neoadjuvant chemotherapy with neoadjuvant pertuzumab and trastuzumab and have undergone surgical treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive early breast cancer. The study will consist of two adjuvant treatment periods: a treatment cross-over period and a treatment continuation period. It will evaluate participant-reported preference for a subcutaneously administered fixed-dose combination formulation (FDC SC) of pertuzumab and trastuzumab compared with intravenously (IV) administered pertuzumab and trastuzumab formulations. The study will also evaluate participant-reported satisfaction with pertuzumab and trastuzumab FDC SC and health-related quality of life outcomes; healthcare professionals' perceptions of time/resource use and convenience of pertuzumab and trastuzumab FDC SC compared with pertuzumab and trastuzumab IV formulations; as well as the safety and efficacy of each study regimen.

NCT05554627
This is an open-label, parallel-group, randomized clinical trial of up to 6 months treatment of adjunctive intranasal (IN) esketamine (ESK) vs. adjunctive aripiprazole (ARI) in Veterans with unipolar Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD). This study will assess the efficacy, safety, and acceptability of adjunctive IN ESK in comparison to ARI, one of the best studied and most widely used adjunctive therapies for TRD. The primary hypothesis is that participants receiving adjunctive IN ESK will be significantly more likely to achieve remission after six weeks of treatment as compared to those who receive adjunctive ARI. Depressive symptoms will be assessed by central raters (CR), blinded to treatment assignment, using the clinician rated version of the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (QIDS-C16), a well-validated tool that is commonly used and is easily translated across other depression inventory scales. The study is powered to detect an absolute difference in remission rates of 10%, or larger, at 6 weeks. Additional outcomes of interest include symptom reduction across 6 months of randomized therapy, side effects and other tolerability indices, attrition rates and measures of quality of life and cost-effectiveness.

NCT00439946
The purpose of this 8-week study is to compare the effects of switching from intravenous Flolan to intravenous Remodulin therapy. Remodulin (treprostinil sodium) is an approved therapy for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Unlike Flolan, Remodulin does not need to be mixed daily and is stable at room temperature, so there is no need for ice packs. In addition, Remodulin is changed every 48hrs, instead of every 12-24 (with ice packs) or every 8 hours (without ice packs) with Flolan. Flolan is given using a type of portable medication pump called the CADD Legacy infusion pump. In this study, Remodulin will be given using a smaller and lighter medication pump called the Crono Five infusion pump. This study will also assess the effect that changing to Remodulin will have on treatment satisfaction and patient quality of life.
