NCT00768339
AEG35156 has shown early evidence of activity in patients with advanced indolent B-cell lymphomas in Phase 1 trials and merits further evaluation in this disease. This trial is designed to determine the recommended dose of AEG35156 in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and indolent B-cell lymphomas.
NCT00933933
To test blood specimens using a new investigational test that detects antigen and antibody to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Results will be compared to an approved HIV antibody test and supplemental testing performed to determine HIV status.
NCT00040677
ICA-17043 is being developed for the chronic treatment of patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) in both adults and children. ICA-17043 is a potent and specific inhibitor of a channel in human red blood cells (RBCs) that blocks RBC dehydration. ICA-17043 is expected to inhibit RBC dehydration and thus should prevent or delay the sickling process. By reducing sickled cells, an improvement in anemia, a reduction in painful crises, and ultimately, less end-organ disease is anticipated.
NCT00195715

NCT00044356
The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine if Allovectin-7®, an experimental gene-based immunotherapy, can shrink melanoma tumors. The trial will also examine if this treatment can improve the time to disease progression.
NCT00546780
This is a phase 3, open label trial for patients with multiple myeloma in first relapse. Trial will compare tanespimycin (KOS-953), in combination with a fixed dose of bortezomib versus bortezomib alone.
NCT00909298
The purpose of this study is to determine if post-operative administration of intrinsic pathway antagonist (TTP889) in patients on Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) support will result in a 50% reduction of thrombin generation markers at 28 days compared to placebo.
NCT00779519
Multiple pathways including peripheral and central hormones and neurotransmitters are involved in the regulation of food intake and body weight. One of the most studied pathways involves the melanocortin receptor. Agouti-related protein (AgRP) and alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (alphaMSH)have been shown to play an integral role in food intake and body weight. It is reasonable to speculate that if there is an imbalance of alphaMSH and AgRP exist in obese individuals and inhibiting the activity of AgRP may be of therapeutic benefit in treating obesity.
NCT00985413
This is an Observational Study of children under the age of 11 diagnosed with Cockayne Syndrome to assess the natural progression of Cockayne Syndrome disease, with special attention to hearing and physical changes in length or height, weight, head circumference, and arm span during standard treatment. The primary analytical objective is to determine the rate of linear growth over a 6-month period in children \< 2 years of age and over a 12-month period in children ≥ 2 years of age.
NCT01055106
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GW05 administered in 3 regimens versus metronidazole 0.75% for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis.
NCT00112619
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects, best way to give, and best dose of topotecan when given by intraventricular infusion in treating young patients with neoplastic meningitis due to leukemia, lymphoma, or solid tumors.
NCT00804986
A multicenter, multinational, randomized,double-blind, placebo-controlled study in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Patients with inadequate glycemic control using diet and exercise alone, or in combination with metformin, will be enrolled. The primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that LY2428757 given to patients with T2DM inadequately controlled with diet and exercise alone, or metformin monotherapy, produces a significant decrease in the mean hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline to endpoint at 12 weeks as compared to placebo. Trial consists of 12 weeks of double-blind treatment and 4-week safety follow-up.
NCT00621543
The purpose of this study is to determine the expulsion and continuation rate of an intruterine device (IUD) placed immediately after medical abortion. Our hypothesis is that immediate-placement of an IUD after completed medical abortion will have a similar expulsion and continuation rate to traditional placement (4-6 weeks after pregnancy).
NCT00143715
Excessive prolongation of the international normalized ratio (INR) occurs frequently in patients taking warfarin; in fact, about one in six INR values is above the desired range. Excessive prolongation of the INR is clinically important because the risk of bleeding approximately doubles for each one point increase in the INR beyond the usual therapeutic range. Thus, treatment strategies which rapidly and reliably lower an excessively prolonged INR into the desired range have the potential to reduce bleeding. When taken by patients with INR values between 4.5 and 10, a small dose of oral vitamin K (1 mg to 2.5mg) reduces the INR into the desired INR range in about 75% of cases within 24 hours of its administration. If warfarin is simply withheld, and no vitamin K is given, about 25% of patients will have an INR in the desired range at 24 hours. However, vitamin K is rarely given to such patients. In a recent survey carried out by our group, less than 20% of such patients would have been given low dose oral vitamin K by a group of physicians who regularly supervise warfarin therapy. The most common treatment for excessive prolongation of the INR is to simply withhold warfarin and allow the INR to fall into the therapeutic range. Although this strategy is effective its safety has never been adequately examined. In fact, recent evidence suggests that patients with INR values of more than 6.0 who are treated with simple warfarin withdrawal have a risk of major bleeding of 4% in the two weeks after they develop their prolonged INR. When asked why they did not give oral vitamin K to a non-bleeding patient who has an excessively prolonged INR, physicians generally give one of three reasons: (1)They are not convinced that oral vitamin K reduces bleeding. (2) They are concerned that oral vitamin K may cause thrombosis. (3) In contrast with simply withholding warfarin, giving oral vitamin K requires a patient to visit the physician, and the physician must have a supply of vitamin K. The investigators hypothesize that the routine practice of not administering oral vitamin K to patients with excessively prolonged INR values is causing patients to have major, life-threatening and fatal bleeds. To convince physicians that oral vitamin K should be administered to all non-bleeding patients with INR values of more than 4.5, the investigators propose a study which the investigators anticipate will demonstrate that oral vitamin K reduces bleeding, does not cause thrombosis, and can be administered at home without direct physician supervision. To accomplish these goals, the investigators propose a multinational, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The investigators will randomize patients with INR values between 4.5 and 10.0 to receive 1.25 mg of oral vitamin K or placebo and follow them for bleeding and thrombosis. Patients with INR values of more than 10.0 will receive a single 1.25 mg dose of oral vitamin K. Successful completion of this study will establish a treatment standard supported by clinical data which will, in turn, change the way that patients taking warfarin who present with an excessively prolonged INR are treated.
NCT00413270
This study will evaluate the safety of nilotinib in adult patients with imatinib-resistant or -intolerant CML-blast crisis, CML-accelerated phase or CML-chronic phase when treated with nilotinib. Patients will be provided access to nilotinib until the drug is available on the market.
NCT00369447
This is a Phase I-II study designed to investigate nimotuzumab (TheraCIM h-R3) in combination with external radiation in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. The purpose of the Phase I portion of the study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the administration of nimotuzumab with palliative radiation in patients who are unsuitable for radical therapy and to select the optimal dose for the Phase II component of the study. The primary objective for the Phase II portion of the study is to examine the efficacy of this combination treatment. The Phase I component of this study has been completed. The Phase II is now closed to recruitment.
NCT01378572
With the present study the investigators intend to identify the morphologic and electrophysiologic substrate markers of increased arrhythmic risk in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy undergoing implantation of a defibrillator for the primary prevention of sudden cardiac death. Moreover, the investigators also aim to identify if there is any electrophysiological substrate modification at the time of the first arrhythmic event in these patients. To this aim, the investigators will prospectively correlate electroanatomic mapping and cardiac magnetic resonance findings with arrhythmic events, in order to identify substrate markers of increased arrhythmic risk in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, who are therefore more likely to benefit from a defibrillator implantation. Furthermore, electroanatomic mapping will be repeated at the time of the first arrhythmic event and compared with that at baseline, in order to evaluate any electrophysiological substrate changes.
