NCT00435942
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Relay thoracic stent-graft system to treat thoracic aortic aneurysms. Efficacy will be evaluated by the device-related adverse event rate of endovascular repair (via Relay Thoracic Stent-Graft) through 1-year. Safety will be evaluated by comparing major adverse events through 1-year in subjects treated with the Relay Thoracic Stent-Graft to those who underwent surgical repair. Long term follow-up is conducted through 5 years.
NCT01480479
This 2-arm, randomized, phase III study will investigate the efficacy and safety of the addition of rindopepimut (an experimental cancer vaccine that may act to promote anti-cancer effects in patients who have tumors that express the EGFRvIII protein) to the current standard of care (temozolomide) in patients with recently diagnosed glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer. All patients will be administered temozolomide, the standard treatment for glioblastoma. Half the patients will be randomly assigned to receive rindopepimut and half the patients will be randomly assigned to receive a control called keyhole limpet hemocyanin. Patients will be treated in a blinded fashion (neither the patient or the doctor will know which arm of the study the patient is on). Patients will be treated until disease progression or intolerance to therapy and all patients will be followed for survival.
NCT00323284
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the iStent trabecular micro-bypass stent in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) in subjects with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension and co-existing cataract.
NCT01118052
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well EGEN-001 works in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer that is persistent or has come back. Biological therapies, such as EGEN-001, use substances made from living organisms that may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing.
NCT01128959

NCT00040183
The purpose of this study is to determine if OSI-774 will improve overall survival when combined with a standard dose of the chemotherapy drug gemcitabine, to individuals with pancreatic cancer.
NCT01119846
The purpose of this study is to see if GSK1292263 is safe and well-tolerated when administered to type 2 diabetics, and to get preliminary information about whether it may be effective in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
NCT00951015
This Phase IIb study in HIV-infected antiretroviral naive subjects will select an optimal once daily dose of GSK1349572 from a range of doses for future evaluation.
NCT01449929
This study will be conducted in approximately 468 HIV-1 infected antiretroviral therapy (ART)-naïve subjects. Subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive dolutegravir (DTG) 50 mg once daily (approximately 234 subjects) or darunavir/ritonavir (DRV/r) 800 mg/100 mg once daily (approximately 234 subjects), each in combination with fixed-dose dual nucleoside reverse transriptase inhibitor (NRTI) therapy (either abacavir/lamivudine (ABC/3TC) or tenofovir/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC). Subjects will be stratified by screening HIV-1 RNA and background NRTI selection. The primary analysis will take place after the last subject completes 48 weeks on therapy; an additional analysis will be conducted after the last subject completes Week 96 on study.
NCT02427217
This is a multicenter, non interventional, retrospective cohort study with a prospective, observational follow-up component to investigate the safety and efficacy of FCH use in subjects with congenital fibrinogen deficiency. Data will be collected on the safety and efficacy of FCH as used for the treatment of acute bleeding episodes, routine prophylaxis and perioperative bleeding in these subjects. All subjects have received FCH and may continue to receive FCH at the discretion of the treating physician / Primary Investigator according to the standard of care at the participating study site.
NCT00820560
To establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of INCB007839 given as multiple doses for 28 days and to determine if a higher MTD can be established when INCB007839 is administered in combination with prophylactic anticoagulation and with a 2 and a half day (5 doses) treatment interruption every two weeks.
NCT02423109
Bilateral dispensing clinical trial of fanfilcon A toric lens verses enfilcon A toric lens over two weeks.
NCT00404768
Pre-Term Labor (prior to 37 weeks gestation) is the largest single cause of infant morbidity and mortality and is frequently associated with long-term disability. Oxytocin is a hormone produced by the body during labor. GSK221149A is an experimental drug that will be used to block the effects of oxytocin, and therefore pause or prevent contractions. In this study, patients with preterm labor will be given an intravenous infusion of GSK221149A over approximately 12 hours followed by an oral tablet in Parts A and B. In part C of this study, patients with preterm labor will be give an intravenous infusion of GSK221149A over approximately 48 hours. The use of a rescue tocolytic is allowed in the study.
NCT02230332
Beta-2-agonists are effective in reducing airway narrowing in asthma and protecting against stimuli that produce bronchoconstriction. The combination of long-acting beta agonists (LABA) and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) has become the most commonly used asthma controller medication class in the United States, but unfortunately, even when LABAs are added to ICS and used regularly, 58-81% of patients with asthma fail to achieve total control. Regular use of beta-agonists, both short and long-acting, reduces the ability of these agents to protect against the airway narrowing that occurs in asthma in response to bronchoconstrictor stimuli. We refer to this reduced effect as loss of bronchoprotection. In this proof of concept trial we aim to determine if alendronate, which diminishes beta-2 adrenergic receptor internalization, can reduce the loss of bronchoprotection that occurs with regular use of LABAs, even when used in combination with ICS.
NCT00995878
The primary goal of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of two standard fibroid treatments: MRI guided ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS) and uterine artery embolization (UAE). Both treatments are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for women who do not plan to become pregnant. A second goal of this study is to better understand which symptoms bother women with fibroids the most. Understanding and addressing the symptoms of clinically-significant uterine fibroids is important in order to optimize treatment outcomes and control health care costs. Women who are eligible to participate in the study, are randomized to one of two treatment arms (UAE or MRgFUS). Women in both arms will receive treatment but will not be able to choose which treatment she will receive. A comprehensive assessment of symptoms-including experienced pain- will take place at baseline, 6 weeks, and at 6, 12, 24, and 36 months following treatment with UAE and MRgFUS.
NCT01418001
The purpose of this study is to see the effects, good and/or bad, of the drug combination of gemcitabine, docetaxel and pazopanib on sarcoma. This is a phase Ib-phase II clinical trial. The goal of a phase Ib part of the clinical trial is to confirm a dose of the drugs that is safe. The investigators determine this by closely checking for side effects that the patient may experience.
NCT02346214
The purpose of this study is to develop a novel, highly automated method of gestational age estimation at delivery combining anterior lens capsule vascularity (ALCV) and biophysical parameters appropriate for use in low income countries. The specific aims of the proposed study are: (1) To develop an algorithm to predict gestational age at delivery from 26 to 42 weeks' gestation with ALCV and key biophysical parameters (2)To evaluate the performance of ALCV and biophysical parameter-based gestational age estimates. Specifically, we hypothesize that the accuracy of the predictive algorithm will be comparable to commonly used measures of gestational age dating (±2 days) and have better precision (±14 days) than commonly used measures of gestational age dating.
