NCT02224755
The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the HM3 LVAS by demonstrating non-inferiority to the HMII LVAS (HMII) when used for the treatment of advanced, refractory, left ventricular heart failure.
NCT01452802
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of the HeartMate II (HM II) Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) support versus OMM in ambulatory NYHA Class IIIB/IV heart failure patients who are not dependent on intravenous inotropic support and who meet the FDA approved indications for HM II LVAD destination therapy.
NCT01303796
This Phase 3 study assesses two drug regimens as the initial treatment of patients who are at least 70 years of age and have newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) for whom the doctor does not recommend the use of standard intensive treatment or the patient has decided not to receive standard intensive treatment after being fully informed about its benefits and risks by his/her doctor. The two drug regimens are sapacitabine administered in alternating cycles with decitabine or decitabine alone. The purpose of the study is to learn which drug regimen is more likely to keep AML in check as long as possible.
NCT03367494
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a hereditary multi-system disease affecting approximately 30,000n children and adults in the USA. The diagnosis of CF requires biochemical confirmation (either abnormal sweat chloride measurement and/or identification of two CF disease causing mutations) plus clinical symptomatology. Measurements of sweat chloride remain cumbersome and although most common methodology to confirm CF diagnosis with limitations especially in young children less than 6 months of age and in areas that lack ability for the complex testing. The study objectives of this current research proposal include: A) To expand upon previously obtained pilot study data "Evaluation of a fluorescent-based chloride sensor as an optical sweat test to diagnose cystic fibrosis" B) To add the exploratory measurement of sweat Bromide as a first in human assessment observation, C) To Evaluate the development of smartphone based point-of-care technology for chloride and bromide sensor measurements, D) To further expand the class of citrate-based sensors with improved fluorescence and sensing properties for the design of new fluorescence-based analytical and diagnostic solutions based on the automated multi-halide detection system, and E) To develop point-of-care systems that can successfully integrate into clinical settings to improve current practices and facilitate early detection of disease.
NCT04207268
The purpose of this study is to test the effect of group-based nutrition advice plus gardening (intervention) versus group-based nutrition advice alone on dietary intake of fruits and vegetables, physical activity, and lifetime risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD).
NCT00288080
RATIONALE: Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy using drugs, such as leuprolide, goserelin, flutamide, or bicalutamide, may fight prostate cancer by lowering the amount of androgens the body makes. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known whether giving hormone therapy and radiation therapy together with chemotherapy is more effective than giving hormone therapy together with radiation therapy in treating prostate cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying hormone therapy and radiation therapy followed by docetaxel and prednisone to see how well it works compared to hormone therapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with localized prostate cancer.
NCT02714218
The purpose of this study is to evaluate two different dose combinations of nivolumab and ipilimumab in the treatment of melanoma.
NCT00121472
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the Thoratec HeartMate II Left Ventricular Assist System (LVAS) as a bridge to cardiac transplantation in end-stage heart failure patients who are listed for cardiac transplant but are at imminent risk of dying. The HeartMate II LVAS was approved by the US FDA on April 21, 2008, as a bridge to cardiac transplantation (reference PMA P060040). It was approved for commercial distribution in Canada on May 20, 2009 (reference Medical Device Licence #79765). Patients enrolled into the clinical trial will continue to be followed until all have reached a clinical outcome.
NCT02648347
A multicenter, randomized, open-label, active-controlled Phase 3 study for the correction of anemia and maintenance of hemoglobin (Hb) in participants with Non-Dialysis-Dependent Chronic Kidney Disease (NDD-CKD)
NCT02836652
This study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled study of subjects receiving the HM II LVAD as per the current FDA approved indications for use.
NCT00573131
OncoGel is a new experimental drug delivery system that allows the slow continuous release of paclitaxel (an approved intravenous anticancer drug), from a gel (ReGel) over a long period of time. The gel will disappear in 4 to 6 weeks as it releases the paclitaxel. The protocol is directed towards evaluating the efficacy and safety of paclitaxel delivered as a local, intralesional treatment when used in combination with chemotherapy (cisplatin and 5-FU) and radiation therapy before surgery.
NCT00450411
RATIONALE: Implant radiation therapy uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well ultrasound-guided implant radiation therapy works in treating patients with locally recurrent prostate cancer previously treated with external-beam radiation therapy.
NCT04794751
This is a single-masked, 2×3 crossover, randomized, dispensing clinical trial to evaluate the visual performance and subjective responses of the JJVC Investigational Contact Lens.
NCT01477528
The purpose of this observational study is to obtain multi-center data on HeartMate II (HMII) patients managed with reduced anticoagulation or anti-platelet regimes, and the incidence of thrombotic and bleeding adverse events associated with these regimes.
NCT02279173
This is a phase 3b single arm, open label, multicenter study describing the percentage of time pediatric participants with ITP have a platelet response while receiving romiplostim, defined as a platelet count ≥ 50 x 10\^9/L in the absence of ITP rescue medications for the past 4 weeks.
NCT04380961
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical response of sirukumab (administered as a single intravenous dose) plus standard of care (SOC) compared to placebo plus SOC in COVID-19.
NCT04416542
Inspire intends to conduct this study to compare Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI), between the two randomization arms, at 6 months post-activation
NCT02170363
The purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the performance and safety of the HeartMate 3 Left Ventricular Assist System (HM3 LVAS) To support obtaining CE Mark for the HM3 LVAS in Europe, a multi-center clinical study will be conducted in multiple countries. The clinical study will be conducted in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki, ICH/GCP and EN ISO 14155:2011 Requirements for Clinical Investigations and in accordance with country-specific requirements, under one clinical study protocol. This study will evaluate the performance of the HM3 LVAS, side effects and undesirable conditions within acceptable risks and weigh them against the intended performance of HM3 LVAS in accordance with Essential Requirements 2, 5 and 16 of the Active Implantable Medical Device Directive 90/385/EEC (AIMDD).
NCT01911767
The primary objective of the study is to prospectively evaluate pregnancy outcomes in women with multiple sclerosis who were exposed to a Registry-specified Biogen Multiple Sclerosis product during the eligibility window for that product. The Registry-specified Biogen MS products being studied are dimethyl fumarate, and Pegylated human interferon beta-1a. The secondary objective of the study is to prospectively evaluate pregnancy outcomes in women with MS who were unexposed to disease-modifying therapies (DMTs).
