NCT01430754
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the maintenance effect and safety of 20 mg tasimelteon versus placebo in subjects suffering from Non-24-Hour Sleep-Wake Disorder.
NCT00499590
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of bevasiranib given either every 8 weeks or every 12 weeks after an initial pre-treatment with 3 injections of Lucentis® (ranibizumab injection) compared to Lucentis® given every 4 weeks to people with wet AMD. Patients will be assigned at random (like tossing a coin) to receive one of three treatments options for 104 weeks.
NCT01419756
Assessment of Right Ventricular Volume using the VentriPoint Medical system in patients with Tetralogy of Fallot following repair; a comparison study to cMRI. The objective of this study is: To evaluate the accuracy of the VentriPoint Medical System to calculate right ventricular volumes in patients with Tetralogy of Fallot following surgical repair. Secondary objectives are: To validate Inter and Intra observer variability at 3 clinical sites. The analyses will be the same for EDV and ESV. For either right ventricular volume, the primary effectiveness measure is the % difference between VMS and cMRI results, i.e. (VMS-cMRI)\*100%/average of VMS and cMRI results. There will be two null hypotheses for the primary analysis: H0+: true mean % difference \> 10% and H0-: true mean % difference \< -10% The observed mean % difference will be presented with 95% confidence intervals. The VMS right ventricular volume estimates will be regarded as equivalent to cMRI estimates if both H0+ and H0- are rejected at a 1-sided 0.025 level by a paired t test for both EDV and ESV. Since H0+ and H0- cannot both be true, the total type I error rate for each measure is 0.025 and the overall type I error rate for both EDV and ESV is 0.05.
NCT00594165
The objective of this open-label extension is to assess the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment of the rotigotine patch in subjects with early-stage idiopathic Parkinson's disease.
NCT00924352
The primary objective for the Phase I portion of the study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) and for the Phase II portion of the study is to evaluate progression free survival (PFS). Secondary objectives are response rate, clinical benefit rate, and overall toxicity.
NCT01246960
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ramucirumab when used in conjunction with chemotherapy treatment can help participants with stomach, esophagus, and gastroesophageal cancer.
NCT00097708
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an experimental anti-anxiety medication is effective in the treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
NCT01523392
The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacodynamic effect of ticagrelor in African American patients with stable coronary artery disease.
NCT00602771
This randomized phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well giving tipifarnib together with etoposide works in treating older patients with newly diagnosed, previously untreated acute myeloid leukemia. Tipifarnib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as etoposide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving tipifarnib together with etoposide may kill more cancer cells.
NCT00082095
The main purpose of this study is to compare treatment with either pegylated liposomal doxorubicin or capecitabine as first line chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer in women 60 years and older.
NCT00109928
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, etoposide, gemcitabine, and methylprednisolone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage II, stage III, or stage IV T-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
NCT00525447
This is a Phase I, open-label, multi-dose trial to define the MTD and tolerability of a regimen including lenalidomide, dexamethasone, and intravenous SGN-40 in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma.
NCT00505687
The objective of this open-label extension is to assess the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment of rotigotine in subjects with idiopathic PD.
NCT01993225
This is a Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multi-Center Phase III Study in Men with Acquired Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism to Compare Changes in Testosterone and Sperm Concentration Following Treatment with 12.5 mg or 25 mg Androxal or AndroGel 1.62%.
NCT00503295
The purpose of this Phase 2 study is to investigate whether intravenous administration of REOLYSIN® therapeutic reovirus is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with bone and soft tissue sarcomas metastatic to the lung.
NCT01636362
Approximately 55-65 subjects from 3-6 sites suffering from a burn injury covering 1-25% Total Body Surface Area (TBSA) will be evaluated providing they fulfill all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria and have given a signed and dated informed consent. Study site will be from 1-15%. Each subject will be followed once a week for a maximum of 3 weeks or until the burn is healed if that occurs earlier. All dressing changes will be performed at the clinic and gauze rolls will be used as secondary dressing. All dressing changes will be registered in a dressing log. All subjects will be consecutively allocated to a subject code.
NCT00357500
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as etoposide and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Thalidomide, celecoxib, and fenofibrate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Celecoxib also may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving combination chemotherapy together with thalidomide, celecoxib, and fenofibrate may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving etoposide and cyclophosphamide together with thalidomide, celecoxib, and fenofibrate works in treating young patients with relapsed or progressive cancer.
NCT01196052
This single-arm open-label study assessed the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) after the completion of anthracycline-based adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with early HER2-positive breast cancer. Patients received T-DM1 3.6 mg/kg intravenously on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle, for up to 17 cycles.
NCT00211172
The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of direct-to-patient mailings designed to increase patient's adherence to prescribed beta-blockers following an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Prior to developing patient materials, focus groups were conducted with patient who had previously suffered an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) to identify the issues and information that patients felt were important to include in our materials as well as the best way to present the information. Additionally, patient materials were "pre-tested" with AMI patients to ensure that the materials were clear and easy to read and that the key messages were understood.
NCT00661206
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a 6 month duration of clopidogrel therapy after DES implantation is not inferior to that of a 12 month therapy.
