NCT00003715
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a person's melanoma cells may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Interferon alfa may interfere with the growth of the cancer cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of melanoma vaccine with that of interferon alfa-2b in treating patients who have stage III melanoma that has spread to regional lymph nodes following surgery.
NCT02347644
The objective of this study is to explore the efficacy of brief motivational interventions (BMIs) for treatment of youth with alcohol and other drug problems after at least 3 months. The results of previous studies indicate that brief interventions for unhealthy alcohol use have been shown to be effective in primary care settings, with most studies focusing on adults and few studies focusing on youth. To date, no BMI studies have been conducted in the Ukraine among youth with alcohol or other drug use. Of particular concern are emerging adults ages 18-25 who may be at particularly high risk for alcohol problems given historical events related to the fall of the Soviet Union and the subsequent economic down turn. This study will evaluate the efficacy of BMI by comparing BMI and no BMI conditions among two samples of youth screening positive on the prescreen survey for risky drinking. The subject pool will come from the Psychoneurological Department: the first location is located in the Railway Clinical Hospital, its clinical base, and the second in classes in the department at Kiev National Medical University. The total sample of 120 will be broken down to 1.) 60 patients from Railway Clinical Hospital; and 2.) 60 students from Kiev National Medical University. Participants will be stratified by recruitment site and randomized to condition: BMI and control, with follow-up assessment at 3 months. In addition to being the first of study to evaluate the efficacy of BMI on substance use problems among youth in Ukraine, this study will examine BMI intervention processes in relation to alcohol and other drug outcomes. Findings will inform research and clinical practice to enhance early identification and prevention of problematic alcohol use trajectories among emerging adults
NCT00617357
This is a prospective, multicenter, interventional, observational, open label, single arm, longitudinal evaluation of ventral incisional hernia repair using LTM in contaminated or infected sites. Three interim analyses are planned to examine the incidence of surgical site events, postoperative resumption of activities and hernia recurrence.
NCT00992173
This is a multi-center, single arm trial of two doses of 18 mCi/kg of Ultratrace iobenguane I 131 administered to subjects with high-risk neuroblastoma. Iobenguane I 131 is a drug that has already been used in many children to treat neuroblastoma, and it is known to shrink some of the tumors, and cause manageable side effects. When administered intravenously, Iobenguane I 131 accumulates in the neuroblastoma cancer cells and causes them to die. In this study the investigators are investigating the use of a new form of Iobenguane I 131 called Ultratrace iobenguane I 131. This form is expected to deliver higher amounts of radioactive I 131 to the neuroblastoma cells. The primary purpose of the study is to determine if Ultratrace iobenguane I 131 can be used to successfully treat high-risk neuroblastoma. The study will also assess the safety of Ultratrace iobenguane I 131 when given to patients with high-risk neuroblastoma.
NCT01964352
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 12 weeks once daily treatment with orally inhaled tiotropium + olodaterol FDC (delivered by the Respimat inhaler) compared with tiotropium and placebo in patients with COPD.
NCT01397747
The primary objective is to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the Exact Colorectal Cancer (CRC) screening test for colorectal cancer, using colonoscopy as the reference method. Lesions will be confirmed as malignant by histopathologic examination. The secondary objective is to compare the performance of the Exact CRC screening test to a commercially available FIT assay, both with respect to cancer and advanced adenoma. Lesions will be confirmed as malignant or precancerous by colonoscopy and histopathologic examination.
NCT01831466
The study is beng done to test if tofacitinib ointment is safe and effective for people with plaque psoriasis. Two dose strengths of tofacitinib ointment (20 mg/g and 10 mg/g) applied once or twice daily are being tested. The safety and effectiveness of tofacitinib ointment used for 12 weeks will be compared to the safety and effectiveness of placebo ointment (vehicle) used for 12 weeks.
NCT02561013
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the product performance of a new adjustable compression system for the treatment of venous leg ulcers.
NCT00399594
Identifying \& optimizing strategies to reduce the burden of heart failure is vital. Despite advances in pharmacotherapy, patients with heart failure are at high risk for death \& hospitalization. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) synchronizes ventricular mechanical activity, improves cardiac output \& reduces HF symptoms. However, \~50% of patients do not clearly respond to CRT. Sub-optimal placement of the LV pacing lead appears to be an important reason for non-response. This study will assess whether targeted LV lead placement will result in an increased probability of CRT response at 52 weeks vs. usual (lateral wall) lead placement.
NCT02130518
Long-term indwelling urinary catheters are associated with chronic recurrent urinary tract infections and blockage caused by crystalline biofilm accumulation (encrustation) of the catheter surfaces. When the urine and catheter are colonized by urease-producing bacteria such as Proteus mirabilis, encrustation of the catheter is likely to occur. The use of a catheter irrigation solution that can prevent biofilm formation and encrustation leading to blockage may keep the catheter patent longer, resulting in fewer catheter changes, potentially lower incidence of UTIs and better patient quality of life. Auriclosene is a non-antibiotic, fast-acting, broad-spectrum antimicrobial, which exhibits potential for the rapid decolonization of a range of urologic pathogens, including the urease-producing Proteus mirabilis. Subjects will be randomized to either Auriclosene Irrigation Solution or Auriclosene Vehicle solution.
NCT00306852
The purpose of the Tube Versus Trabeculectomy (TVT) Study is to compare the safety and efficacy of nonvalved tube shunt surgery to trabeculectomy with mitomycin C in patients with previous ocular surgery.
NCT00102986
Men's and women's bodies may process anti-HIV drugs differently. The purpose of this study is to determine the differences in blood levels of soft gel capsules and tablets of lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) in HIV infected men and women.
NCT01118312
The trial will study the effectiveness of nasal steroids for the treatment of chronic rhinitis and/or sinusitis on asthma control.
NCT01192022
The efficacy and safety of TachoSil® as secondary hemostatic treatment in hepatic resection surgery will be compared to the standard USA licensed hemostatic agent, Surgicel® Original. Hemostatic efficacy will be evaluated intraoperatively after application of randomized treatment.
NCT00876915
Some cancer patients starting a new chemotherapy regimen are likely to develop blood clots, also known as venous thromboembolism (VTE). Blood clots can cause symptoms and can occasionally be life-threatening. The purpose of this study is to determine if a daily injection of a blood-thinner, dalteparin, for 12 weeks can safely and effectively reduce the frequency of blood clots. Dalteparin is currently approved for prevention of blood clots following surgery and in hospitalized patients but not specifically for cancer outpatients.
NCT01709162
The purpose of the study is to determine whether additional doses of ipilimumab have a positive effect on survival in the treatment of advanced melanoma that has progressed after successful initial treatment with ipilimumab.
NCT01167777
Multicenter clinical study to test a new qualitative in vitro nucleic acid amplification assay based on kPCR technology. The assay is intended for the diagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GC).
NCT00786747
The study investigators have developed an interactive multimedia computer program that provides personally tailored education about colorectal cancer screening in the user's preferred language (English or Spanish). In this study, the investigators will examine whether use of the computer program increases the number of Hispanic patients who receive colorectal cancer screening and lessens or eliminates the glaring disparity in screening between Hispanics and non-Hispanic whites.
