NCT02272244
This study is designed to test a standard mailed intervention (SI) versus a novel decision support and navigation intervention (DSNI). Working with patients and stakeholders, this randomized trial will include 400 Hispanic men and women who are 50 to 75 years of age, patients in community based primary care practices, and are eligible for CRC screening. We will consent, survey, and randomize participants either to the SI Group (n=200) or the DSNI Group (n=200). Study specific aims are to: (1) Assess intervention (DSNI versus SI) impact on overall CRC screening adherence; (2)Assess intervention (DNSI versus SI) impact on CRC screening decision stage; (3) Assess intervention (DNSI versus SI) impact on test-specific CRC screening adherence; and (4) Assess intervention (DNSI versus SI) impact on CRC and knowledge and perceptions.
NCT02616484
The objective of this research study is to conduct a pivotal phase 3 trial of treatment with the investigational drug dichloroacetate (DCA) in young children with deficiency of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). PDC deficiency (PDCD) is the most common cause of congenital lactic acidosis and is a frequently fatal metabolic disease of childhood for which no proven treatment exists. The investigators predict that DCA represents targeted potential therapy for PDCD because of its ability to increase both the catalytic activity and stability of the enzyme complex. The conclusions of numerous laboratory and clinical investigations are consistent with this postulate and have led to the designation of DCA as an Orphan Product for congenital lactic acidosis by the Food and Drug Administration. A novel Observer reported outcome (ObsRO) survey that is completed by study participant's parent/caregiver, is the efficacy outcome measure. Funding Source - FDA OOPD
