NCT00908947
The objectives of this study are to collect post-market confirmatory evidence of the safety and effectiveness of the Bard® LifeStent® Vascular Stent System and LifeStent® XL Vascular Stent System (together the "LifeStent® Vascular Stent System").
NCT00325897
The purpose of this study is to determine if long-term administration of a macrolide antibiotic will reduce worsening of symptoms among individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
NCT01211522
The long-term objective of the MIND-USA (Modifying the Impact of ICU-Induced Neurological Dysfunction-USA) Study is to define the role of antipsychotics in the management of delirium in vulnerable critically ill patients. We and others have shown that delirium is an independent predictor of more death, longer stay, higher cost, and long-term cognitive impairment often commensurate with moderate dementia. The rapidly expanding aging ICU population is especially vulnerable to develop delirium, with 7 of 10 medical and surgical ICU patients developing this organ dysfunction. Antipsychotics are the first-line pharmacological agents recommended to treat delirium, and over the past 30 years they gained widespread use in hospitalized patients globally prior to adequate testing of efficacy and safety for this indication. Haloperidol, the most commonly chosen antipsychotic, is used by over 80% of ICU doctors for delirium, while atypical antipsychotics are prescribed by 40%. Antipsychotics safety concerns include lethal cardiac arrhythmias, extrapyramidal symptoms, and the highly publicized increased mortality associated with their use in non-ICU geriatric populations. The overarching hypothesis is that administration of typical and atypical antipsychotics-haloperidol and ziprasidone, in this case-to critically ill patients with delirium will improve short- and long-term clinical outcomes, including days alive without acute brain dysfunction (referred to as delirium/coma-free days or DCFDs) over a 14-day period; 30-day, 90-day, and 1-year survival; ICU length of stay; incidence, severity, and/or duration of long-term neuropsychological dysfunction; and quality of life at 90-day and 1-year. To test these hypotheses, the MIND-USA Study will be a multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled investigation in 561 critically ill, delirious medical/surgical ICU patients who are (a) on mechanical ventilation or non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or (b) in shock on vasopressors. In each group (haloperidol, ziprasidone, and placebo), 187 patients will be enrolled and treated until delirium has resolved for 48 hours or to 14 days (whichever occurs first) and followed for 1 year.
NCT00654238
The goal of this study is to determine the activity of sorafenib in patients with advanced (metastatic or recurrent) thyroid cancer.
NCT02792777
The goal of this study is to improve the methods with which researchers identify patient centered outcomes for use in research. Specifically, the investigators will test the application of concept mapping as compared to one-on-one interviews as a comprehensive and efficient method of identifying patient-important outcomes for use in research.
NCT01476644
Hypothesis 1: Self-reported health-related quality of life decreases as vision impairment worsens in subjects with glaucoma. Hypothesis 2: Changes in health-related quality of life are associated with changes in clinical measures of vision and performance-based measures of visual function.
NCT01929408
The purpose of this study is to compare treatment methods and outcomes of patients diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
NCT03018340
To assess the efficacy of pimavanserin compared to placebo when given adjunctively to a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI)/serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) antidepressant as treatment of patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and an inadequate response to antidepressant therapy
NCT02287467
Influenza (the flu) is a common illness that usually occurs in autumn and winter. The flu is usually mild, but can cause serious illness or death. The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of an antibody against the flu (called intravenous hyperimmune immunoglobulin or IVIG) in people who are hospitalized for severe flu.
NCT02584855
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and long-term efficacy of ixekizumab compared to placebo in participants with active psoriatic arthritis.
NCT03620708
Randomized clinical trial comparing 3 brief interventions designed to increase motivation to quit smoking in socioeconomically disadvantaged smokers.
NCT01203943
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and PK profile of CC-930 in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients.
NCT03298516
This Phase Ia/Ib, open-label, multicenter study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of DCLL9718S as a single agent (Phase Ia, Arm A) in participants with relapsed or refractory AML or in combination with azacitidine (Phase Ib, Arm B) in participants with previously untreated AML who are not eligible for intensive induction chemotherapy. Each arm will consist of two stages: a dose-escalation stage and an expansion stage. The dose-escalation stage is designed to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) for DCLL9718S alone (Arm A) or in combination with azacitidine (Arm B). The dose-expansion stage is designed to characterize the long-term safety and tolerability of DCLL9718S.
NCT02909972
Phase 1/1b, open label, multi-center dose escalation and dose expansion study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, PK (pharmacokinetics), PD (pharmacodynamics) and anti-tumor effects of ALRN-6924 alone or in combination with cytarabine in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia or advanced myelodysplastic syndrome with wild-type (WT) TP53
NCT00747474
The purpose of this study is to find a safe and tolerable dose of Lipotecan® when administered to patients with advanced solid tumors.
NCT02696785
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug known as ixekizumab in biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs)-naive participants with radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (rad-axSpA).
NCT01133132
This study will develop and test the benefits of a new ICCS (Interactive Cancer Communication System), a mobile Comprehensive Health Enhancement Support System (Survivorship CHESS) in colon cancer survivors. Survivorship CHESS will provide information, tools, and a support system based on our previous work with FRESH START and CHESS, two highly successful interventions that have promoted lifestyle change among cancer patients and survivors. Survivorship CHESS will be designed to help subjects develop 1) competence in information gathering, decision-making, and behaviors they are trying to change, 2) social support systems to help deal with the cancer experience, and 3) autonomy that comes with regaining a sense of control over their lives; this in turn, will help them adopt or maintain healthy lifestyle behaviors and improve their quality of life.
NCT02451007
Study to assess the potential effects of lurbinectedin (PM01183) at a therapeutic dose on the duration of the QTc interval, measured by electrocardiograms (ECGs), to characterize the PM01183 plasma concentration/QTc relationship, and to explore related ECG parameters in patients with selected solid tumors.
NCT00106301
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of extended treatment with FK228 in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma or hormone refractory prostate cancer who have at least demonstrated stable disease on prior Fujisawa sponsored FK228 clinical trials.
NCT02630966
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the percentage of participants with perianal fistula healing at Week 30 in 2 different dose regimens of vedolizumab intravenous (IV) 300 milligram (mg) in participants with fistulizing Crohn's disease (CD).
