NCT00060528
Background: " Adenocarcinoma of the prostate is the most common cancer diagnosis in American males and follows lung cancer as the leading cause of cancer death. " Vaccine strategies represent a novel therapeutic approach in the treatment for prostate cancer. One potential target for a prostate cancer vaccine is prostatic specific antigen (PSA), due to its restricted expression on prostate cancer and normal prostatic epithelial cells. Objectives: " The primary objective is to determine the impact of granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and recombinant fowlpox granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (rF-GM-CSF) on the immunologic response in patients treated with these vaccines. " Secondary - to determine the change in prostatic specific antigen (PSA)-specific T cells in patients treated with these vaccines using enzyme linked immunosorbent spot (ELISPOT) assay analysis. " To document any objective anti-tumor responses that may occur. Eligibility: " Patients must have androgen insensitive metastatic prostate cancer. " All patients will have received and progressed on hormonal therapy. " Must have objective evidence of metastasis or relapsing local disease. Therefore, must have a rising PSA and at least one of the following: positive bone scan, palpable disease, or positive imaging studies. " Must have a life expectancy of more than 6 months and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) status of 0 to 2. "Patients must be human leukocyte antigen serotype within HLA-A A serotype group (HLA-A2+). " Granulocyte count greater than or equal to 1,500/mm\^3, Platelet greater than or equal to 100,000/mm\^3, hemoglobin (Hgb) greater than or equal to 10Gm/dL, Lymphocyte count greater than or equal to 500/mm\^3 ;Bilirubin less than 1.5mg/dL, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) less than 2.5x upper limit of normal (ULN),Creatinine Clearance greater than or equal to 60 " No significant cardiac disease, no significant pulmonary disease, no serious inter-current medical illness. Design: " Cohorts three, four and five will provide safety data combining cohort two with rGM-CSF as well as two doses of rFGM-CSF respectively. "This study will be conducted as a small, randomized pilot study to compare the immunologic effects of the above vaccine strategy alone, with recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), or with either of 2 doses of fowlpox-GM-CSF. "This study will consist of 4 randomized arms of 8 patients each, all of whom are HLA-A2+. The maximum accrual to the trial should be 62.
NCT02136004

NCT00089570
The purpose of this study is to determine whether terlipressin is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) type 1 when compared to placebo.
NCT01495988
This phase 2 clinical trial randomizes patients with BRAF mutant melanoma to either (1) standard of care (SOC) - BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib in combination with MEK inhibitor cobimetinib; or, (2) SOC plus bevacizumab, an anti-VEGF antibody that suppresses new blood vessel formation and can stimulate the immune system. Previous clinical studies in melanoma have shown that bevacizumab may improve clinical benefit (progression free survival) if combined with ipilimumab or abraxane. Preclinical studies suggest that VEGF increase plays a role in resistance to BRAF inhibitors. This randomized study will ask whether the addition of bevacizumab to targeted therapy SOC in BRAF mutant melanoma can improve response rates and clinical benefit. Patients may have received no therapy for advanced disease or up to 2 prior therapies, excluding BRAF and MEK inhibitors.
NCT02527759
The purpose of this study is to examine the relative predictive ability of the derived monitoring instrument to determine post discharge instability and 30-day outcomes in patients discharged with HF. The primary hypothesis is that variables in the monitoring instrument, individually and combined, identify risk for 30-day outcomes. Clinical indicators of dyspnea, fatigue, orthopnea, dyspnea with exertion, daily weight, edema, heart rate, blood pressure, mental condition, medication adherence, and overall well-being will be reported by participants on a daily basis and considered indicators for 30-day outcomes of stability, re-hospitalization, or mortality.
NCT01586858
Rituximab is the first drug approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of patients with granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's granulomatosis) or microscopic polyangiitis. Because it is a relatively new medication, the long-term safety and efficacy of this drug is not yet clear. This study proposes to follow patients who were enrolled in the RAVE study to determine if treatment with rituximab influences long-term outcomes.
NCT03079687
This is an open-label, single-arm, international, multicenter Multiple Patient Expanded Access Program (MPEAP). The program is designed to provide treatment access to olaparib tablets for patients with platinum-sensitive relapsed high-grade epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer without other treatment options or eligible for an olaparib clinical trials.
NCT03320109
Serum 25(OH)D, dietary and supplemental vitamin D were shown to influence cognitive outcomes in large epidemiological studies. Sex/age-specific and race-specific associations of vitamin D status and intake were examined with longitudinal change in various cognitive domains in a large sample of ethnically and socio-economically diverse US urban adults. Two prospective waves of data from Healthy Aging in Neighborhoods of Diversity across the Life Span (HANDLS) study were used, specifically visit 1: 2004-2009 and visit 2: 2009-2013, mean follow-up time±SD: 4.64±0.93y. Cognitive performance was assessed using 11 test scores covering domains of global cognition, attention, learning/memory, executive function, visuo-spatial/visuo-construction ability, psychomotor speed and language/verbal. Serum 25(OH)D, vitamin D intake and use of supplements containing vitamin D were the key exposures. Multiple mixed-effects linear regression models were conducted, (N=1,231-1,803, k=1.5-2.0 observation/participant).
NCT00116428
This trial compares the safety and effectiveness of catheter ablation for PAF with antiarrhythmic drug therapy. The investigational catheter being studied is the NAVISTAR® THERMOCOOL® irrigated-tip catheter. At the time of this study, the NAVISTAR® THERMOCOOL® catheter was FDA-approved for commercial distribution in the U.S. for treating patients with Type I atrial flutter and drug refractory monomorphic ventricular tachycardia post myocardial infarction. The catheter was approved for use in Europe for endocardial ablation for treating cardiac arrhythmias.

NCT02039297
In this multicenter project, we will introduce AWARE (electronic interface) Using a cloud-based technology . The goal of this project is to improve compliance with best practice through the use of a new acute care interface with built-in tools for error prevention, practice surveillance and reporting (ProCCESs AWARE - Patient Centered Cloud-based Electronic System: Ambient Warning and Response Evaluation).The goal of this project is to develop and test a novel acute care interface with built-in tools for error prevention, practice surveillance, decision support and reporting (ProCCESs AWARE - Patient Centered Cloud-based Electronic System: Ambient Warning and Response Evaluation). In preliminary studies, these novel informatics supports built on an advanced understanding of cognitive and organizational ergonomics, have significantly decreased the cognitive load of bedside providers and reduced medical errors. Using a cloud-based technology, AWARE will be uniformly available on either mobile or fixed computing devices and applied in a standardized manner in medical and surgical ICUs of five geographically diverse acute care hospitals predominantly serving Medicare and Medicaid patients. The impact of ProCCESs AWARE on processes of care and outcomes in study ICUs; expected to enroll more than 10,000 critically ill patients during the study period.
