The study participation includes in-patient and out-patient days.
NCT01293669
TC-6987 is a selective nicotinic α-7 receptor ligand (open channel stabilizer) that has demonstrated potent anti-inflammatory/antioxidant properties in animal models. Following the oral administration of a 1mg/kg dose of TC-6987 to diabetic mice (db/db mouse) for 7 weeks, numerous metabolic improvements were observed. Specifically, plasma glucose and triglyceride concentrations declined by approximately 30%; Hb1Ac was reduced by nearly 50%; and TNF-α declined more than 60% relative to control db/db mice Therefore, it appears that TC-6987 could prove beneficial in reducing elevated glucose concentrations in diabetic patients as well as in ameliorating organ damage associated with inflammation, oxidative stress and hyperglycemia.
NCT00147550
MEK is a critical member of the MAPK pathway involved in growth and survival of cancer cells. PD-325901 is a new drug designed to block this pathway and kill cancer cells. The purpose of this study is to study the effectiveness of PD-325901 in patients with colon cancer, breast cancer, and melanoma. PD-325901 will be given by mouth as a pill twice a day, CT scans will be done and biopsies will be taken of a tumor before and once during treatment to measure the effects of the drug. Blood samples will be taken to measure the amount of drug in the blood.
NCT01205386
The purpose of this study is to determine if the CROSSER CTO Recanalization System can facilitate the successful crossing of Chronic Total Occlusions in the Central lumen of the Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA). A Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) is defined as 100% narrowing of the artery, with no angiographically detectable antegrade blood flow, and the assessment that the lesion has been in existence for a minimum of 30 days. This study will enroll up to 100 patients at up to 8 clinical sites. The CROSSER CTO Recanalization System was cleared for commercialization by the US Food \& Drug Administration. This study also involves an imaging device called the IVUS (Intravascular Ultrasound Imaging) catheter. This device has been cleared for commercialization by the US Food and Drug Administration and will be studied for its cleared intended use. The IVUS catheter is used to generate real-time images of the artery, which will allow for evaluation of the artery after the occlusion is crossed. This is a post-market registry.
NCT00219817
Anorexia and weight loss are devastating complications in late-stage cancer patients and is strongly associated with mortality in these patients. Activation of Ghrelin receptors have been demonstrated to stimulate appetite. RC-1291 HCl, by virtue of its ghrelin like activity and Growth Hormone releasing effects may have a dual role in the reversal of cancer induced anorexia and weight loss. This study will test the safety and efficacy of RC-1291 in the treatment of cancer patients with anorexia and weight loss.
NCT01537367
PROJECT OVERVIEW This research is a collaboration between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), and six university-affiliated HIV clinics in the United States. Study title: Intervention Trials to Retain HIV Patients in Medical Care Study sites: The study will be performed at six HIV clinics affiliated with academic medical centers. Objectives: Using HIV patients' clinical data (without personal identifiers) routinely archived in electronic databases at the six participating clinics do the following: • To examine the extent to which a client-centered intervention delivered by trained interventionists (Phase 2 trial of the project) improves patient attendance for HIV primary care over and above the effect of the clinic-wide intervention. Phase 2 is a three-arm randomized controlled trial conducted at each of the participating six clinics. 300 patients will be enrolled in the Phase 2 trial at each clinic. One hundred will be new patients and 200 will be patients with inconsistent attendance for HIV primary care at the clinic in the prior 12 months. Patients will be randomized to: (1) an enhanced contact plus behavioral skills arm or (2) an enhanced contact-only arm in which patients will receive a longer or a shorter client-centered intervention from two trained interventionists, or (3) the standard of care arm in which patients will receive the clinic-wide intervention and routine HIV clinical care only.
NCT00716482
Our hypothesis is that the addition of ShearWave Elastography (SWE) to a conventional breast ultrasound examination provides useful information for the radiologist when imaging lesions in the breast, as compared to conventional grayscale ultrasound alone.
NCT01934257

NCT01001221
Primary Objectives: * Study part 1: To determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) of cabazitaxel administered as a 1-hour infusion in combination with gemcitabine, every 3 weeks in patients with advanced solid malignancies. * Study part 2: To determine the antitumor activity of cabazitaxel in combination with gemcitabine, in an additional extended cohort of 15 patients with advanced solid malignancies treated with the defined MTD, as assessed by objective response rate (ORR) according to the revised guideline for Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST 1.1 criteria). Secondary Objectives: * To assess the safety profile of the combination regimen of cabazitaxel with gemcitabine. * To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of cabazitaxel, gemcitabine and its metabolite 2',2' difluorodeoxyuridine (dFdU) when given in combination. * To determine Time to Progression (TTP), Objective Response Rate (ORR), and Duration of Response (DR), in the extended cohort of patients treated at the MTD in Part 2 of the study and the patients who received the MTD in Part 1 component. For study part 1, dose levels were to be escalated according to predefined dose escalation decision rules. The Maximum Administered Dose (MAD) was reached at the dose level when at least 2 patients developed a DLT during the first 3 weeks of treatment. There was no further dose escalation when this dose was achieved. The MTD was defined as the highest dose at which 0 or 1 of 3 to 6 patients, respectively, experienced DLT during the first 3 weeks of treatment.
NCT01031628
The purpose of this study is to determine if escalating the dose of imatinib to keep the drug blood level at ≥ 1100 ng/ml leads to better outcomes for patients.
NCT00003847
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: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy for the treatment of patients who have recurrent small cell lung cancer following treatment.
