NCT00047125
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Giving radiation therapy in different ways may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known which regimen of radiation therapy is more effective in treating patients who have metastases to the lymph nodes in the neck. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare different radiation therapy regimens in treating patients who have metastases to the lymph nodes in the neck from an unknown primary tumor.
NCT02948062
The goal of this single institution study is to evaluate boys with adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) diagnosed early in life, and to prospectively monitor them to determine parameters that will facilitate earlier detection of the childhood cerebral form of the disease. These at-risk subjects will be assessed yearly through travel to the University of Minnesota, where plasma and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) biomarker studies, MRI based imaging and neuropsychological assessments will be performed at the University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital and Clinics. The MRI and lumbar puncture to obtain CSF will be obtained under sedation. In addition, at intervening 6 months intervals information will be obtained remotely, including surveys and MRI's in their home location. Also at that time blood samples will be obtained locally and shipped to the University of Minnesota for study. There is no therapeutic intent in this study.
NCT00484679

NCT00078338

NCT02072226
PRISMS is a double-blind, multicenter, randomized, Phase IIIb study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) alteplase in participants with mild acute ischemic strokes that do not appear to be clearly disabling. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive within 3 hours of last known well time either 1) one dose of IV alteplase and one dose of oral aspirin placebo or 2) one dose of IV alteplase placebo and one dose of oral aspirin 325 milligrams (mg).
NCT02059902
Thermal injury results in one of the most intense and prolonged forms of pain the body can experience. Opioid narcotics are the most powerful drugs for acute and chronic pain, and their use in the perioperative period has been the mainstay of treatment; although medication requirements in burn patients are often underestimated. More medication may not be the answer, as relatively large doses of short acting opioids in the operative theater are associated with greater postoperative opioid consumption and higher pain scores. Furthermore, extensive use of opioids has resulted in the development of by hyperalgesia and allodynia. Lidocaine is an amide local anesthetic that has analgesic, anti-hyperalgesic, antiarrhythmic, and anti-inflammatory properties. Over the past 25 years, systemic lidocaine has been used for perioperative pain management in a variety of surgical procedures. The design of this study will examine if lidocaine will reduce the pain scores and narcotic utilization in patients undergoing surgical procedures for burn injuries. The intervention group will receive a bolus dose of lidocaine followed by a continuous infusion over 24 hours. The control group will get an equal volume of saline. The investigators will compare pain scores, opioid use, and narcotic equivalents based on body weight and burn surface area (BSA) grafted.
NCT00113555
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a minimally invasive surgical procedure in up to 160 implanted female patients in which two adjustable balloons (one on each side of the urethra) are implanted to treat urinary stress incontinence. The results will be analyzed to demonstrate the effects of the device as well as its associated risks. Therapeutic success will be based on whether the patients demonstrate at least a one-grade (mean) reduction in the Stamey score at 12 months.
NCT01459679
The objectives of this study are to evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of three treatment regimens for corneal collagen cross-linking performed with VibeX (riboflavin ophthalmic solution) and the KXL System in impeding the progression of, and/or reducing maximum corneal curvature.
NCT00940095
The aim of this study is to demonstrate that clazosentan, administered as a continuous intravenous infusion at either 5 mg/h or 15 mg/h until Day 14 post aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), reduces the incidence of cerebral vasospasm-related morbidity and all-cause mortality within 6 weeks post-aSAH treated by endovascular coiling. The primary endpoint of the study is the occurrence of cerebral vasospasm-related morbidity, and mortality of all-causes within 6 weeks post-aSAH, defined by at least one of the following: 1. Death (all causes). 2. New cerebral infarct(s) due to cerebral vasospasm as either the primary or relevant contributing cause, or not adjudicated to be entirely due to causes other than vasospasm. 3. Delayed ischemic neurological deficit (DIND) due to cerebral vasospasm as either the primary or relevant contributing cause, or not adjudicated to be entirely due to causes other than vasospasm. 4. Administration of a valid rescue therapy in the presence of confirmed cerebral vasospasm on angiography (DSA or CTA). An independent Critical Events Committee (CEC) will adjudicate whether or not patients meet the primary endpoint and its individual morbidity components.

NCT02799784
The primary objective of this study is to assess the effect of umeclidinium/vilanterol (UMEC/VI) versus tiotropium/olodaterol (TIO/OLO) in subjects with moderated COPD. This is a multicentre, randomized, open label, 2 period crossover complete block design study. Eligible subjects, who complete a 2-week run-in period, will be randomized to receive a sequence consisting of UMEC/VI inhalation powder (62.5/25 microgram \[mcg\] once-daily \[QD\]) administered as 1 inhalation via the ELLIPTA® Inhaler and TIO/OLO 5/5 mcg inhalation spray administered as 2 inhalations via the RESPIMAT® inhaler, for 8 weeks each. This will be followed by a 3-week washout period and one-week follow-up period. The total duration of subject participation in the study will be approximately 22 weeks.
