NCT02145468
Losmapimod is a new anti-inflammatory medication which potentially may benefit patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome, (ACS), a condition which includes heart attack. There is a growing understanding that the inflammatory response to ACS is integral to the subsequent evolution of plaque instability. Losmapimod inhibits p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK), an enzyme which may play a central role in inflammation in the setting of heart attack. Inhibition of p38 MAPK may stabilize atherosclerotic plaques, reduce the risk of subsequent plaque rupture, indirectly improve vascular function and prevent subsequent thrombosis, and thus reduce infarct size and the risk of subsequent cardiac events. This study will test whether losmapimod can safely reduce the risk of a subsequent cardiovascular event (such as death, heart attack, or near heart attack requiring urgent treatment ) when started immediately after ACS (specifically, heart attack). Patients who present with heart attack and qualify for the study will be randomly assigned to receive 3 months treatment with either losmapimod twice daily or placebo, which will be administered in addition to the usual standard of care therapies for heart attack. Following the in-hospital period, subjects will return for outpatient visits at 4 and 12 weeks, as well as a follow up visit at 24 weeks.
NCT00948636
The study tests the hypothesis that related hematopoietic stem cell donors are at a higher risk for acute medical and psychological toxicity associated with the donation process compared to adult unrelated hematopoietic stem cell donors. The study will also assess the hypothesis that young (\<18 years) and older (\>60 years) related donors are at increased risk for toxicity associated with donation compared to younger adult donors by describing the adverse events reported in these populations. An ancillary study of the psychological impact of donation on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) will enroll related donors and compare them to an age-matched normative cohort.
NCT00403546
The primary aims of this study are to assess tolerability of ziprasidone dose escalation to 320 milligrams per day (mg/d) compared to continued standard treatment (placebo) as measured by the Side Effect Checklist, Simpson Angus Scale for Extrapyramidal Symptoms (SAS), Barnes Akathisia Scale (BAS), serum prolactin concentrations, vital signs, electrocardiogram (EKG) and completion rates and to assess whether ziprasidone dose escalation improves overall psychopathology compared to continued standard treatment as measured by the change from baseline in the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total score and response rates as defined by a 20% or greater reduction in PANSS total score. The secondary aims of this study are to assess whether ziprasidone dose escalation improves psychotic symptoms compared to continued standard treatment as measured by the Positive Symptom Subscale of the PANSS, to assess whether ziprasidone dose escalation improves negative symptoms compared to standard treatment as measured by the Negative Symptom Subscale of the PANSS, to assess whether ziprasidone dose escalation improves depressive symptoms compared to continued standard treatment as measured by the Calgary Depression Rating Scale (CDRS), and to assess whether ziprasidone dose escalation improves overall functioning with the Clinical Global Impression - Severity (CGI-S), Clinical Global Impression - Improvement (CGI-I), Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) and the Schizophrenia Cognition Rating Scale (SCoRS).
NCT02000440
This is a single-arm, multicenter, open-label Phase II, proof-of-mechanism study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of losmapimod in approximately 21 subjects with primary (idiopathic) focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and substantive proteinuria as indicated by a Urinary protein/creatinine Up/c ratio \>=2 gram/gram (g/g) or 24 hr urine protein \>=2 g/day. Losmapimod will be orally administered twice daily over a 24-week treatment phase followed by a 12-week follow-up for safety and relapse assessments.
NCT01221311
The current standard of care for benign bile duct strictures involves placement of multiple plastic stents under endoscopic and fluoroscopic guidance to progressively dilate or stretch it open. This approach necessitates multiple procedures which may extend over one year before the stricture is adequately dilated. The investigators propose a study comparing the standard approach of plastic stenting with the use of newer, fully coated metallic stents which are self-expandable, thereby permitting successful dilation of benign bile duct strictures with fewer procedures.
NCT01457885
Although transplant results for AML in complete remission (CR) at the time of transplant have improved, transplant results for non-remission AML have been quite poor. Most multi-center studies have focused on standard risk AML patients and not many studies have been done in this population of patients with non-remission AML. There are a large number of older patients with non-remission AML because the complete remission rate with induction chemotherapy decreases with age. Such older patients do not tolerate conventional full intensity conditioning regimens. Thus, an effective and tolerable conditioning regimen for non-remission AML is a great unmet need for current transplant practice. From the investigators earlier study, it is suggested that replacing Fludarabine of standard FluBu4 regimen by Clofarabine (a related drug with much more potent anti-leukemia effect) in the transplant conditioning regimen may potentiate the anti-tumor activity of the conditioning regimen without adding significant toxicity, a goal of new conditioning regimen development. The investigators expect to enroll a total of 75 patients from about fifteen sites. The investigators main objective is to confirm both the safety and efficacy as measured by one-year overall survival, of the CloBu4 combination as full intensity conditioning for non-remission acute myelogenous leukemia.
NCT00831116
In April 2008, a coronary catheter based imaging system, LipiScan, was cleared by the FDA for use in detecting lipid core containing containing plaques of interest (LCP). These plaques are rich in cholesterol. The way that cholesterol and other lipids deposit with the coronary artery is unique to each patient. This study is an organized attempt to observe the LCP and the variety of ways that it presents in patients as detected by this recently approved device. This information will be used for physician training and to observe the behavior of the LCP in response to no therapy and currently approved therapies. The purpose of this project is further medical knowledge of the LCP and its treatment.

NCT01440374
This was a worldwide, three-part (Part 1: open-label, Part 2: randomized, double-blind, Part 3: extension), multi-center study to evaluate the effect of eltrombopag in subjects with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have thrombocytopenia due to bone marrow insufficiency from their underlying disease or prior chemotherapy. This objective was assessed by a composite primary endpoint that consists of the following: the proportion of ≥Grade 3 hemorrhagic adverse events, or platelet counts \<10 Gi/L, or platelet transfusions. Patients with MDS or AML and Grade 4 thrombocytopenia due to bone marrow insufficiency from their underlying disease or prior chemotherapy were enrolled in the study. No low or intermediate-1 risk MDS subjects were enrolled in the study. Subjects must have had at least one of the following during the 4 weeks prior to enrolment: platelet count \<10 Gi/L, platelet transfusion, or symptomatic hemorrhagic event. Supportive standard of care (SOC), including hydroxyurea, was allowed as indicated by local practice throughout the study. The study had 3 sequential parts. Subjects who were enrolled in Part 1 (open-label) cannot be enrolled in Part 2 of the study (randomized, double-blind); however, subjects who completed the treatment period for Part 1 or Part 2 (8 and 12 weeks, respectively) continued in Part 3 (extension) if the investigator determined that the subject was receiving clinical benefit on treatment.

NCT00995722
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of prednisone in patients diagnosed with ocular myasthenia. Funding Source - FDA OOPD
NCT00976261
The purpose of Part A of this study is to test whether repeated doses of the study drug (GSK1614235) are safe and well tolerated (i.e. do not produce unacceptable side effects) and whether we can obtain some preliminary information as to whether it works in lowering blood glucose levels. We will do this by comparing the effect of the study drug with placebo (no drug present) and against a drug (sitagliptin) known to control blood glucose in the treatment of diabetes. The purpose of Part B of this study is to determine the how the timing of dosing, relative to meals, affects the response to study drug.
NCT01772368
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the dose response, efficacy, and safety of 4 different doses of salmeterol Spiromax (6.25, 12.5, 25, and 50 mcg) each combined with a fixed dose of fluticasone propionate (100 mcg) delivered as Fluticasone/Salmeterol Spiromax® Inhalation Powder (FS Spiromax) when administered as a single dose in subjects 12 years of age and older with persistent asthma.
NCT01827657
This is a single-dose, open-label, two part, parallel group study. This study is being conducted to determine the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of GSK2336805 in subjects with varying degrees of hepatic impairment. Part 1 of the study will enroll subjects with mild and moderate hepatic impairment and healthy control subjects matched to the subjects in the moderate hepatic impairment category. The decision to commence Part 2 will be based on a review of the preliminary safety and pharmacokinetic data from subjects with moderate hepatic impairment. Part 2 will enroll subjects with severe hepatic impairment. Additionally, based on emergent data from Part 1, matched controls to the severe hepatic group may be enrolled (optional). Due to the potential difficulty in identifying eligible subjects with severe hepatic impairment, the study may be stopped prior to full enrollment in Part 2, provided that a minimum of 4 evaluable subjects with severe hepatic impairment have been enrolled. The study will consist of a Screening visit, a single dose Treatment Period and a Follow-up visit. Subjects will be screened for eligibility criteria within 30 days of enrolment. Subjects will be admitted to the clinical unit on Day -1; each subject will receive a single dose of GSK2336805 on Day 1 and will remain in the clinical unit for 5 days (check-out on Day 4). The follow-up visit will be conducted within 7-10 days after Day 1 dosing.
