NCT01087996
The technique of transplanting progenitor cells into a region of damaged myocardium, termed cellular cardiomyoplasty, is a potentially new therapeutic modality designed to replace or repair necrotic, scarred, or dysfunctional myocardium. Ideally, graft cells should be readily available, easy to culture to ensure adequate quantities for transplantation, and able to survive in host myocardium; often a hostile environment of limited blood supply and immunorejection. Whether effective cellular regenerative strategies require that administered cells differentiate into adult cardiomyocytes and couple electromechanically with the surrounding myocardium is increasingly controversial, and recent evidence suggests that this may not be required for effective cardiac repair. Most importantly, transplantation of graft cells should improve cardiac function and prevent adverse ventricular remodeling. To date, a number of candidate cells have been transplanted in experimental models, including fetal and neonatal cardiomyocytes, embryonic stem cell-derived myocytes, tissue engineered contractile grafts, skeletal myoblasts, several cell types derived from adult bone marrow, and cardiac precursors residing within the heart itself. There has been substantial clinical development in the use of whole bone marrow and skeletal myoblast preparations in studies enrolling both post-infarction patients, and patients with chronic ischemic left ventricular dysfunction and heart failure. The effects of bone-marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have also been studied clinically. Currently, bone marrow or bone marrow-derived cells represent highly promising modality for cardiac repair. The totality of evidence from trials investigating autologous whole bone marrow infusions into patients following myocardial infarction supports the safety of this approach. In terms of efficacy, increases in ejection fraction are reported in the majority of the trials. Chronic ischemic left ventricular dysfunction resulting from heart disease is a common and problematic condition; definitive therapy in the form of heart transplantation is available to only a tiny minority of eligible patients. Cellular cardiomyoplasty for chronic heart failure has been studied less than for acute MI, but represents a potentially important alternative for this disease.
NCT02198079

NCT01218009
This is a one-year study to look at the safety of a dry powder inhaler with albuterol. After a one-week run in, for the first 3 months subjects will use an inhaler with either albuterol or a dummy drug at regular times four times a day. Then for the last nine months of the study, all subjects will be given the albuterol dry powder inhaler and will use it only when needed to help with breathing problems. Subjects will need to keep a daily diary (both paper and electronic) throughout the study recording any inhaler use and health problems. There will be visits to the study doctor about once a month for a year. This study is intended to show that the albuterol dry powder inhaler works well and is safe for use over a long period of time.
NCT01406938

NCT00877799
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of single intravenous doses of the kappa opioid agonist CR845 in relieving pain in patients following laparoscopic-assisted hysterectomy surgery. The study protocol was divided into two parts with subjects either dosed with study drug the day following surgery (Cohort 1), or immediately after surgery (Cohort 2).
NCT01739595
The purpose of ZA-302 is to determine the effects of Androxal on morning testosterone and reproductive status in younger overweight men with acquired hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (confirmed morning T\<300 ng/dL) and normal sperm concentration, compared to changes with placebo. Subjects must not have previously been treated with testosterone products within the last 6 months.
NCT00918138
The purpose of this study was to compare effect of Saxagliptin as add-on to Metformin on 24-hour mean weighted glucose (MWG) to the effect of uptitrating Metformin in subjects with T2DM inadequately controlled on metformin alone.
NCT01712984
The aim of the study is to demonstrate safety and immunogenicity of the quadrivalent influenza intradermal (QIV-ID) vaccine compared to the trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) containing the B strain from the primary (Yamagata) lineage (TIV-ID1) and the trivalent influenza vaccine containing B strain from the alternate (Victoria) lineage (TIV-ID2) vaccines in producing protection against four strains of influenza virus. Primary Objective: * To demonstrate that QIV-ID induces an immune response (as assessed by hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) geometric mean titers (GMTs) and seroconversion rates) that is non-inferior to responses induced by TIV-ID1 and TIV-ID2 for the 4 virus strains at 28 days post-vaccination. Secondary Objectives: * To demonstrate that each B strain in QIV-ID induces an immune response (as assessed by HAI GMTs and seroconversion rates) that is superior to the response induced by the TIV-ID that does not contain the corresponding B strain. * To describe the rate of post-vaccination seroprotection induced by QIV-ID and TIV-ID. * To describe post-vaccination immunogenicity stratified by age (18-49 years and 50-64 years), race, ethnicity, gender, previous vaccination status, and baseline seropositivity status. * To describe the safety profile for subjects who receive QIV-ID and TIV-ID. Observational Objectives: * To demonstrate non-inferiority of QIV-ID compared to TIV-ID in terms of all Grade 2 or Grade 3 solicited systemic reactions combined * To demonstrate non-inferiority of QIV-ID compared to TIV-ID in terms of all Grade 3 solicited injection site reactions combined.
NCT00894504
In this Phase II trial, the investigators will evaluate the combination of gemcitabine, carboplatin, and panitumumab in the treatment of patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. In addition, to assess the efficacy of this combination, tumor tissue will be examined for the presence of various markers, including K-ras and PI3K-activating mutations, EGFR, PTEN, and p53. Correlation of tumor response with marker expression may define a patient subset that is particularly responsive to treatment with a panitumumab-containing combination.
