NCT00081289
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Chemoradiotherapy (combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy) before surgery may shrink the tumor so that it can be removed. Giving chemotherapy after surgery may kill any remaining tumor cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying two different regimens of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy and comparing how well they work in treating patients who are undergoing surgical resection for locally advanced rectal cancer.

Subjects will be instructed to apply the test article (188-0551 Spray or Vehicle Spray) to all psoriasis plaques within the designated Treatment Area twice daily for four weeks (Study Day 29), unless the investigator verifies the subject's psoriasis has cleared at Day 15, then test article application will be for 2 weeks (Study Day 15).
NCT03205436
This study is an extension of the randomized controlled trial NT-DFU-AFF-01. Subjects that were randomized to the Standard of Care group will be able to crossover to the NT-DFU-AFF-02 trial and receive Affinity fHSAM if certain criteria are met.
NCT02689206
GSK1278863 is an orally available, hypoxia-inducible factor - prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor, currently being investigated as a treatment for anemia associated with chronic kidney disease. GSK1278863 has been given as a once daily regimen in clinical studies to date. However, physicians in countries that use a three-times weekly hemodialysis schedule prefer to give the anemia medicine at the same time as the dialysis session. This study will test how well GSK1278863 can maintain hemoglobin levels when given three-times weekly, for 29 days. This study will describe the relationship between hemoglobin and GSK1278863 given three-times weekly. The data from this study will allow for conversion of once daily doses to three-times weekly doses.
NCT02431494
Acne vulgaris is a multifactorial, highly prevalent dermatologic condition that results in visible lesions that can be quite disfiguring. Consequently, individuals with acne often suffer from a wide range of psychological manifestations. Although there is consensus that combination therapy is most effective in treating acne, researchers are constantly striving to develop new treatment. Microcurrent therapy (MCT) is a non-invasive modality that has successfully been used to promote wound healing and has been routinely used in aesthetics. Use of MCT alone or in combination with current successful treatment such as blue light phototherapy (BLP), may hold promise for acne treatment. The investigators propose to conduct a small randomized control trial to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of a novel combination therapy to treat acne vulgaris. The investigators will recruit up to 60 males and females and randomly assign them to one of 3 arms: 1) BLP; 2) MCT; and combination therapy (BLP and MCT). The investigators will assess physiological parameters (number of acne lesions, amount of sebum produced, degree of acne severity) and psychosocial factors (dermatologic quality of life, social anxiety, depressive symptomatology, self-esteem). Participants will complete a baseline assessment prior to initiating treatment and a follow-up assessment at 4 weeks post termination of treatment. The investigators will conduct intermediary assessments at weeks 3 and 5 and 1 week post termination of the treatment. The investigators will use measures of central tendency to describe the sample and repeated measures analysis of variance to compute the main and interaction effects.
NCT00826059
The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of SPG stimulation with the ISS in patients with an acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation initiated within 24 hours from stroke onset.
NCT00661193
RATIONALE: Erlotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving erlotinib together with carboplatin and paclitaxel may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well erlotinib works when given alone or together with carboplatin and paclitaxel in treating patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT01729208
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a new type of soft contact lens with a unique optical design (dual focus) is effective at slowing the progression of myopia (near-sightedness) in children.
NCT01014390
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the WallFlex® Biliary RX Fully Covered Stent as a treatment of biliary obstruction resulting from benign bile duct strictures.
NCT02810678
The study is a pragmatic cluster randomized trial that is being conducted in 5 countries, with sites in 4 cities in Canada, Benin, Ghana, Indonesia and Vietnam. The unit of randomization is the health facility (24 health facilities randomized). The trial tests a complex intervention-a two phase programmatic public health package which includes a standardized public health evaluation and analysis, to identify problems and barriers limiting Latent Tuberculosis Infection diagnosis and treatment among close contacts of active Tuberculosis cases. This will be followed by implementation of appropriate solutions and strengthening of the LTBI clinical program. The primary objective will be to estimate the increase the number of household contacts initiating LTBI treatment per newly diagnosed index patient, within 3 months of diagnosis of the index patient. A secondary objective is to evaluate the cost effectiveness of this two phase intervention. If successful, this approach can be expanded throughout these countries. After initial preparations, including administrative and ethical review, all participating sites will be randomized to intervention or control. Immediately after this, Phase 1 will begin in intervention sites with the standardized public health evaluation to identify barriers to LTBI diagnosis and treatment initiation and the selection of solutions to be used in Phase 2. To ensure standardization of data gathering research staff will use (i) current indicators of the Latent Tuberculosis Infection cascade of care in intervention facilities (number of contacts per index case registered, investigated, started on treatment and completing treatment) and (ii) interviewer administered questionnaires for patients with active pulmonary Tuberculosis, adult and child household contacts and clinic staff. These questionnaires will assess latent Tuberculosis-related knowledge, attitudes and beliefs from the perspective of these different participants. Results from intervention sites in Phase 1 will be analyzed, and used by the investigators, together with local public health officials, to decide on appropriate corrective solutions in each sites. Contact Investigation registries will also be developed with research staff from sites. In Phase 2, solutions for problems identified will be selected and implemented at the intervention sites, Contact Investigation registries will be implemented and clinical training will be provided to strengthen LTBI health care worker knowledge and clinical programs. Study outcomes and costs will be measured at all intervention and control sites throughout Phase 1 \& 2. The main study will run for 18 months. Upon completion of the main study, a 1 year cross over study will be conducted where control sites will receive a streamlined version of the intervention and original intervention sites will be used to evaluate the sustainability of the intervention. Results will be disseminated within each country through existing links with National Tuberculosis Programs, and through international organizations such as the World Health Organization.
