NCT01715298
The study serves to determine whether the treatment of patients with stable, symptomatic Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) with the investigational drug NVA237 is efficient and safe. The efficacy and safety of the drug will be tested against a placebo treatment. The primary criterion to assess efficacy will be the difference between the serial lung function measurements of patients who have been treated for 12 weeks with NVA237 versus those that have received placebo treatment for 12 weeks. A serial lung function measurement (FEV1 testing) will be conducted and the "area under the curve" will be the measure for the ability to breathe.
NCT00002548
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. Combining chemotherapy and radiation therapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy and radiation therapy and kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which treatment regimen is more effective for multiple myeloma. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of melphalan, total-body irradiation, and peripheral stem cell transplantation with that of combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have previously untreated multiple myeloma.
NCT00002849
RATIONALE: Chemotherapy plus interferon alfa may be effective for primary systemic amyloidosis. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of dexamethasone plus interferon alfa in treating patients who have primary systemic amyloidosis.
NCT00051701
The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal dose of Campath for patients with relapsing or refractory (failed standard therapy) non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The study will also evaluate the safety of the drug and whether it is effective in treating these patients.
NCT00130715
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of Seprafilm in reducing the incidence of bowel obstruction and to evaluate the incidence of all serious adverse events (SAEs) associated with the use of Seprafilm occurring within 30 days postoperatively, and the incidence of abdominopelvic abscess within 6 months postoperatively.
NCT00005834
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Thalidomide may stop the growth of tumor cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known if combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without thalidomide for multiple myeloma. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy with or without thalidomide in treating patients who have refractory multiple myeloma.
NCT01714635
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the TECNIS Multifocal 1-Piece Intraocular Lens (IOLs), Models ZKB00 and ZLB00 which will each provide statistically better distance-corrected near visual acuity compared to the monofocal control lens. Complication and adverse event rates associated with each Multifocal IOL will be within the ISO SPE rate for posterior chamber IOLs.
NCT01352793
A multicenter phase 3 safety trial in which 5,700 subjects will be assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive 120 μg rLP2086 vaccine in a 0, 2, 6 month schedule or control. The control group will receive HAVRIX vaccine at month 0 and 6 and saline at month 2. All subjects will be followed for 6 months after the last vaccination to assess safety and tolerability.
NCT02150603
The purpose of this study is to examine the differences in perceived health, psychosocial functioning, behavioral outcomes and quality of life of adults with congenital heart disease who are living in different areas of the world, and how these differences can be understood (e.g., differences in sense of coherence or illness perceptions).
NCT01787188
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Meloxicam \[Test\] Capsules are safe and effective for the treatment of osteoarthritis pain of the knee or hip.
NCT00619801
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of the oral formulation of levocetirizine in children ages 1 to less than 6 years old who suffer from allergic rhinitis or chronic urticaria of unknown origin.
NCT00915551
This Phase III study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of PEP005 Gel, 0.015% when applied to an area of skin containing 4-8 AK lesions on the face or scalp.
NCT00235300
A multicenter clinical study comparing event-free survival at 6 months after transplant between Thymoglobulin-treated and Simulect-treated adult kidney transplant patients. Patients received Thymoglobulin or Simulect from Day 0 through Day 4. Day 0 was considered the day of the transplant procedure. Subjects meeting all inclusion and exclusion criteria were eligible to participate in this study. The treatment assignment was random and not chosen by the subject or their physician. Subjects were monitored during treatment with Thymoglobulin and during the transplant hospitalization. Additional subject monitoring occurred up to 12 months after transplant. 278 study subjects were enrolled at 28 transplant centers in the United States and Europe.
NCT00005866
RATIONALE: Peripheral stem cell transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy used to kill tumor cells. It is not yet known if total-body irradiation plus peripheral stem cell transplantation is more effective with busulfan or with cyclophosphamide for myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of busulfan with that of cyclophosphamide in patients undergoing total-body irradiation plus peripheral stem cell transplantation for advanced myelodysplastic syndrome or related acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT01547585
This study is being conducted to test the hypothesis that daily consumption of a baked food product containing whole soy for 6 weeks will significantly reduce plasma Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) in individuals with hypercholesterolemia. As such the overall goals of this study are to determine whether daily consumption of muffins made from whole soy flour for 6 weeks can lower plasma LDL-Cholesterol, and if so, establish whether the effect is dose-dependent. To do this, study collaborators will: (1) conduct a detailed chemical and physical characterization of certified defatted whole soy flour that will be incorporated into a muffin; (2) formulate and produce a palatable whole soy flour muffin along with a control muffin containing wheat flour; (3) conduct a parallel controlled trial in which soy muffins will be fed randomly to persons with elevated LDL-cholesterol in a human clinical trial. All participants will be randomized into one of three groups and asked to eat two muffins daily for 6 weeks in the following combination: high dose soy; control group or low dose soy. Before, after, and mid-way during the feeding period, blood samples will be obtained for measurements of lipids, glucose, insulin, inflammation, and soy phytochemicals. The effect of soy consumption on waist circumference, body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure will also be examined.
NCT00082134
This is a Phase II, non-randomized, open label study of ILX651 in patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer previously treated with docetaxel. Approximately 40 patients will be enrolled in this study that is expected to last 24 months. All patients will be treated with ILX651 administered IV daily for 5 consecutive days every 21 days. The primary objective of this study is to determine the PSA response rate. The secondary objectives are to determine response of measurable disease, duration of response, time to PSA progression, time to treatment failure, survival, safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetic profile of ILX651.
NCT00150293
To determine long-term safety and efficacy of pregabalin in patients with partial seizures.
NCT01252186
This study is being conducted to evaluate the impact of a 91-day extended cycle oral contraceptive compared to two 28-day oral contraceptive regimens on hemostatic parameters in healthy women.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of eltrombopag in children with previously treated chronic immune thrombocytopenia who are between 1 and 17 years of age. This is a 2 part study. In part 1, patients will be randomized to receive either eltrombopag or placebo for 13 weeks. All patients who complete part 1 will enter part 2. In part 2, all patients will receive 24 weeks of eltrombopag.
