NCT01316939
A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two doses (500 mg once daily and 500 mg twice daily) of GSK1605786A in maintaining remission over 52 weeks in adult subjects with Crohn's disease. Efficacy will be assessed by the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score. Eligible subjects will have achieved response (CDAI decrease of at least 100 points) and/or remission (CDAI less than 150) in a prior GSK sponsored induction study. The primary endpoint will be proportion of subjects in remission at both Weeks 28 and 52. Safety will be assessed by recording of adverse events, clinical laboratory parameters including liver function tests, vital signs and electrocardiogram. Population pharmacokinetics will evaluate the two doses of GSK1605786A. Health outcomes assessments will include changes in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ), SF-36v2, EQ-5D, Work Productivity and Activity Impairment - Crohn's Disease (WPAI-CD) and disability.
NCT00179478
The current study is a continuation of the 5 year extension study of the phase III CHAMPS study (see reference). This study was designed to determine if immediate initiation of therapy with Interferon Beta-1a (AVONEX) after a first attack of multiple sclerosis (MS) continues to delay the development of further attacks (CDMS) and the development of neurological disability over a 10 year period of observation. The initial 5 year extension study, called CHAMPIONS5, reported that immediate initiation of interferon Beta-1a (AVONEX) after a first attack of MS continued to delay the development of CDMS and lowered relapse rates compared to delayed initiation of disease modifying treatment (usually with AVONEX) either at the time of a second attack or at the end of the phase III study (24 months). The study was extended to 10 years to determine if these effects are sustained and result in less long term permanent disability.
NCT01848301
Coronary allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is the leading cause of late graft failure and second leading cause of late mortality after heart transplantation. CAV has been associated with a variety of traditional risk factors for atherosclerosis; however, immune mediated injury from development of de-novo donor-specific antibodies after transplantation also likely plays an important role. Similar to the progression of traditional atherosclerosis, it is likely that endothelial dysfunction is the precursor to the development of intimal thickening and CAV. The investigators hypothesize that coronary allograft vasculopathy after heart transplantation as defined by progressive neointimal hyperplasia is preceded by endothelial dysfunction, which in turn is at least partly mediated by donor specific antibodies. The investigators are proposing a prospective study in humans to test the above hypothesis and further mechanistically understand how CAV progresses. In this study the investigators will test for coronary endothelial function by infusing acetylcholine into the coronary artery and measure intimal hyperplasia by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and compare findings in patients with and without donor specific antibodies.
NCT01893346
To assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of a single dose of CAZ-AVI in children from 3 months of age to \<18 years.
NCT02042443
This randomized phase II trial studies how well trametinib or combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with refractory or advanced biliary or gallbladder cancer or that cannot be removed by surgery. Trametinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether giving trametinib is more effective than combination chemotherapy in treating patients with biliary or gallbladder cancer.
NCT01517984
The study will compare how well transplanted kidneys work and the response of people's immune systems as tacrolimus, a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI), is withdrawn. In addition, this research study will evaluate whether reducing immunosuppression can decrease some of these side effects while still preventing rejection of the kidney.
NCT02210325
This study will compare a single dose of oral solithromycin to the standard of care (intramuscular ceftriaxone plus oral azithromycin) in the treatment of patients with urogenital gonorrhea. A completed open-label Phase 2 study with single doses of solithromycin resulted in 100% microbiological eradication in male and female patients with uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea.
NCT01385787
This is a non-therapeutic study. Pediatric AML patients undergoing HCT with a myeloablative preparative regimen may be enrolled. Subjects can be enrolled 10-40 days prior to HCT. Three samples for MRD (measured by WT1 PCR and flow cytometry) will be collected from peripheral blood and bone marrow: 1) pre-HCT (\<3 weeks prior to starting the preparative regimen), 2) day 42 +/- 14 days post HCT (early post-engraftment), and 3) day 100 (+/-20 days) post HCT. For two years after transplant, the subject's follow-up data will be collected using the Research Level Forms in the CIBMTR Forms Net internet data entry system. The main objective is to determine whether there is any association between level of pre-transplant and post-transplant bone marrow MRD using WT1 and flow cytometry with 2-year event-free-survival, and to estimate the strength of that association in terms of the predictive accuracy of MRD. The investigators hypothesize that measurable MRD at either time point will be associated with decreased 2-year event-free survival.
NCT02200133
This randomized study will compare a personalized Survivorship Care Plan (SCP) template with usual care (no SCP). The investigators hypothesize that the personalized SCP that incorporates patient specific treatment exposures and provides a framework for long term followup based on those exposures and subsequent risks for late complications will enhance patient survivorship confidence in knowledge, increase adherence to recommended healthcare, improve health behaviors and reduce HCT-related emotional distress.
NCT00876889
The purpose of the study is to find out if the use of the drug Riluzole is both safe and improves outcome in patients with acute traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI).
NCT02546700
Phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group clinical trial of lebrikizumab in participants with COPD and a history of exacerbations who are treated with inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) and at least one long-acting bronchodilator inhaler medication. This study will be conducted to assess the safety, efficacy, and patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures.
NCT00880399
This is a 6-week, randomised, multicenter, double-blind, placebo controlled, fixed dose parallel group study to assess the efficacy and safety of orvepitant (30 and 60 mg/day) versus placebo in subjects with a diagnosis of a Major Depressive Disorder, whose symptoms are considered moderate or severe. Following an initial screening visit, subjects fulfilling the study inclusion and exclusion criteria will enter a pre-treatment screening phase to permit evaluation of the laboratory and ECG assessments and to confirm eligibility for inclusion into the study. This screening phase will be a minimum of 7 days, but no longer than 21 days. At the completion of the screening period, eligible subjects will be randomised at the baseline visit to receive either orvepitant 30mg/day, orvepitant 60mg/day or placebo (equal chance of receiving any of the three possible treatments, i.e., a 1:1:1 ratio) for a six-week double-blind treatment phase. Those subjects randomised to receive placebo will receive study medication identical in appearance to that received by subjects assigned to receive orvepitant 30 or 60mg/day. Efficacy will be assessed via standard depression symptom and severity rating scales or questionaires. The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D) will be used as the primary measure. Secondary efficacy endpoints include the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (QIDS-SR) and the Clinical Global Impression- Global Improvement and Severity of Illness Scale (CGI-I and CGI-S, respectively). Safety will be assessed by monitoring for adverse events (side effects) and through periodic laboratory evaluations (blood tests), vital signs assessments (e.g., blood pressure, heart rate, temperature) and heart function measurements (electrocardiograms, or ECGs).
NCT01783483
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate sternal bone healing following a full median sternotomy versus standard of care for sternal closure with wire cerclage. Additional outcomes on post-operative pain and analgesic usage, patient function and quality of life, and complications will also be collected. A health economics study will also be conducted, in which cost and billing data will be collected from sites participating in this clinical study.
NCT01021553
To determine if an on demand dosing of 50 mg or 150 mg of GSK557296 demonstrates superior efficacy with respect to duration of intra vaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) during an 8 week study period compared to placebo in men with primary premature ejaculation. An assessment of the safety and tolerability of all doses of GSK557296 will be performed as well as an assessment for change in the Index of Premature Ejaculation (IPE) from baseline and at the end of the 8 weeks of treatment. During the active treatment period study participants will be limited to a maximum of 40 doses of GSK557296, or placebo, spilt as 20 doses for both 4 week intervals.

GSK2251052 will be compared to imipenem-cilastatin, which is an antibiotic commonly used to treat serious cUTI infections. GSK2251052 has a spectrum of microbiological activity that includes pathogens responsible for cUTI.
NCT00519480
This study will assess safety and tolerability of metformin plus GSK189075 in people with Type 2 Diabetes. About 48 people will participate in this study. Volunteers will not know if they are receiving GSK189075 or a placebo. Participation will last about 5 weeks including a run-in period of up to 2 weeks if necessary to increase metformin up to 2000mg daily, a 13-day treatment period, and a follow-up visit about 1 week after the treatment period. Volunteers will remain in the research clinic beginning 2 days before they receive the first dose of GSK189075 until after the morning dose on the fourth day and from the afternoon of the 12th day of dosing until the morning after the last dose. They will have clinic visits on dosing Days 6, 8, and 10. Volunteers will be given equipment and instructions for measuring their blood sugar at home and will be asked to keep a study diary. Blood pressure, heart rate, laboratory tests on blood and urine, physical examinations, reports of drug side effects and ECGs will be obtained during the clinic visits to assess safety.
