NCT00734591
In studies of Exubera in persons with diabetes, lung cancer occurred in a few more people who were taking Exubera than in people who were taking other diabetes medicines. All subjects diagnosed with lung cancer had a history of smoking and the number of lung cancer cases observed fell within the expected range based on population-based data. There is currently not enough information to determine if any of the observed lung cancer cases were related to Exubera use, therefore, the study is being conducted to further investigate whether Exubera use makes the appearance of lung cancer more likely.
NCT00477321
This study will evaluate the safety of a new experimental drug, IL-7, in people with HIV infection. Animal studies have shown that IL-7 can improve the function and number of infection-fighting cells called T lymphocytes, or T cells. If this study shows that IL-7 is safe, additional studies will be done to see if it can improve the function or numbers of T-cells in HIV-infected persons. HIV-infected persons who have been receiving HAART therapy for at least 12 months before enrolling in the study and have been stable on this treatment for at least 3 months before enrollment may be eligible for this study. Participants have about 10 clinic visits over 3 months. They receive three injections of IL-7, one injection a week for 3 consecutive weeks. The injections are given as a shot under the skin in the arm or leg. On the day of each injection, the participant stays in the clinic for up to 8 hours or longer for observation and collection of blood samples. Three additional visits (one every 3 months) may be scheduled. During the study visits the following may be done: * Medical history, physical examination, blood tests every visit. * Electrocardiogram (EKG) at study days 0 (day of first dose), 1, 7 (day of second dose), 14 (day of third dose) and 21. * Chest x-ray study on day 21. * Blood sample collections at frequent intervals during the first 96 hours after the first dose administration. A catheter (thin plastic tube) may be put into a vein in the arm and left in place to allow several blood samples to be drawn without repeated needle sticks. * Urine tests several times during the study.
NCT00596427
The mechanism by which colesevelam HCl lowers glucose is not known. Knowledge of the potential mechanism of action is important for defining the role of the drug among oral antidiabetic agents available for use in subjects with diabetes. The objective of this study is to provide insight into the mechanisms of action of colesevelam HCl in T2DM. The mechanisms of interest include hepatic insulin sensitivity, rate of appearance of exogenous glucose and changes in incretin hormone concentrations.
NCT00945906
Congenital deficiency of factor XIII is an extremely rare inherited disorder associated with potentially life-threatening bleeding. Factor XIII Concentrate is given to patients whose blood is lacking factor XIII. Factor XIII Concentrate works by assisting blood in the usual clotting process, thereby preventing bleeding. In this study, patients will be treated with FXIII Concentrate (Human) and followed closely to determine that they receive the dose of FXIII Concentrate (Human) that will best minimize the chance of bruising and bleeding. The purpose of the study is to provide FXIII Concentrate (Human) to patients until the product becomes commercially available in the United States.
NCT00447187
This was a pivotal trial to determine whether LX201 reduces the likelihood of a graft rejection episode following corneal transplantation in patients at high immunological risk for rejection.
NCT01271959
The purpose of this research study is to collect information from patient's medical records that had a test called ChemoFx® ordered and to understand how doctors may have used the results of the ChemoFx® to treat patients with cancer.
NCT00682383
To determine the safety and efficacy of administering filgrastim with concurrent chemoradiotherapy and the potential benefit of administering pegfilgrastim with consolidation chemotherapy in patients with unresectable locally advanced NSCLC patients.
NCT00404014
The primary objective is to compare mild cognitive impairment in the AL-208 group with the placebo group at 14 + - 3 days after CABG surgery
NCT00833248
The purpose of this phase 3B trial was to see how well a new trial drug (degarelix) works in terms of reducing the size of the prostate volume in prostate cancer patients who were scheduled to undergo subsequent radiotherapy for treatment of their prostate cancer. Prior to receiving radiotherapy, it is recommended that patients with intermediate to high risk prostate cancer are pre-treated with hormone therapy (so-called neoadjuvant therapy) which is known to reduce the size of the prostate and thereby decrease the required radiation field and enable a more safe and effective treatment. In this trial, participants were randomly selected (like flipping a coin) to receive either degarelix given alone or a standard hormone therapy (combination of goserelin and bicalutamide. The treatment was given for three months and the prostate size was measured by ultra sound at the beginning and at the end of the trial. The participants were required to come to the clinic for 5 or 6 visits during the three months.
NCT01104246
The study will evaluate the pharmacokinetics of testosterone transdermal systems at steady-state in hypogonadal men.
NCT00169559
An eight week comparison of the investigational drug GW590735, placebo, and the marketed drug fenofibrate intended to increase the levels of "good cholesterol" and decrease levels of "bad cholesterol" in healthy patients with low levels of good cholesterol and high levels of bad cholesterol.
NCT00488345
To determine the pharmacokinetic profile and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ascending multiple doses of tigecycline in patients aged 8 to 11 years with selected serious infections; complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAI), complicated skin and skin structure infections (cSSSI), or community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).
NCT00555321
The purpose of this clinical research study is to evaluate the effects of belatacept, relative to tacrolimus, on the incidence of rejection, graft loss and death in subjects receiving a liver transplant
NCT00014144
RATIONALE: Biological therapies such as ZD 1839 may interfere with the growth of the tumor cells and slow the growth of cancer of the urinary tract. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ZD 1839 in treating patients who have advanced cancer of the urinary tract.
NCT00003587
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of two different combination chemotherapy regimens in treating patients who have stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer
NCT00000883
The purpose of this study is to see if there are any changes in sugar and fat levels in the blood when patients take anti-HIV therapy for many years. Another goal is to test memory and mental concentrations to determine if anti-HIV drugs protect the brain from damage caused by HIV. (The purpose of this study has been changed from the original version.) HIV-infected patients with low CD4 cell counts are at risk for getting opportunistic (AIDS-related) infections. CD4 cells are cells of the immune system that help fight infection. Anti-HIV therapy may increase CD4 counts, which may lead to a decrease in AIDS-related infections. Problems that anti-HIV therapy is associated with include metabolic problems, neurologic problems, abnormal opportunistic infections, and cancer. Patients in ACTG 362 have been exposed to anti-HIV therapy longer than any other large group in the ACTG. These patients appear to benefit from their therapy, but also suffer problems from it. Observation of these patients should provide more information about long-term anti-HIV treatment and may detect unexpected problems. (This study as been changed. More information about the reasons for conducting this study has been added.)
NCT00072501
RATIONALE: Screening tests such as ultrasound and mammography may help doctors detect cancer cells early and plan more effective treatment for breast cancer. It is not yet known whether ultrasound is more effective than mammography in detecting breast cancer. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying breast ultrasound to see how well it works compared to mammography in detecting cancer in women who are at high risk for breast cancer.
