NCT00048750
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of intravenous micafungin versus placebo as prophylactic therapy for invasive fungal infections in patients in the intensive care unit considered to be at high risk.
NCT00605761
Subject with Cystic Fibrosis have increased clearance of many drugs. Based on pre-clinical data SB656933 was found to have low clearance and high bio-availability. This study will characterize the PK profile of a single dose of SB656933 in patients with Cystic Fibrosis. There will be two groups of subjects. The first group of subjects will receive a single dose of 50mg SB-656933. The second group of subjects will receive a single dose of up to 300 mg SB-656933. Subjects will first be screened for eligibility related to cystic fibrosis history. Safety evaluations will be undertaken and plasma samples for pharmacokinetic analysis will be collected. Additional blood samples will be taken for the pharmacodynamic endpoints CD11b and GAFS. Subjects are not required to stay overnight after their 12 hour PK sample collection on Day 1, although they may do so if they wish. On Day 2 and 3, they will return for collection of additional safety measurements, and further plasma and blood samples will be taken for 24 and 48 h pharmacokinetics and 24h CD11b/GAFS measurements, respectively. A follow up visit (Visit 3) will be made 4-7 days after the treatment period. Subjects will be enrolled in the study for approximately 3to 7 weeks (from screening to follow-up).
NCT00111696
To describe the tumor tissue saturation by MEDI-522 in patients with advanced malignant melanoma.
NCT00211276
The goal of this clinical research study is to find out if the study drug, ONTAK (denileukin diftitox), can shrink or slow the growth of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) in patients whose disease has not responded to prior treatments, or has relapsed after an initial response to prior treatments. The safety of treatment with ONTAK will also be studied. The hypothesis is that patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell NHL and mild to moderate myelosuppression treated with ONTAK at a new dosing regimen will respond sufficiently to warrant further study.
NCT00665535
The purpose of the study is to determine the optimal frequency of repositioning nursing facility residents with limited mobility who are cared for on a high density foam mattress in order to prevent bed sores. It is hypothesized that participants at moderate risk (Braden Scale Scores 13-14) who are turned every 3 or 4 hours and participants at high risk (Braden Scores 10-12) turned every 3 or 4 hours will not have a higher incidence of ulcers than those residents turned every 2 hours.
NCT00036153
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of tacrolimus + methotrexate compared to methotrexate alone in the treatment of the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis over 6 months in patients with partial response to methotrexate.
NCT00215735
Autologous platelet concentrate will enhance the rate of healing of chronic diabetic wounds
NCT00440947
This study was designed to test the efficacy, safety, tolerability and durability of the antiviral response between atazanavir (ATV) + ritonavir (/r) + abacavir/lamivudine(ABC/3TC) Fixed dose combination (FDC) each administered once daily (QD) for 36 weeks followed by randomization to either a simplification regimen of ATV or continuation of ATV +/r for an additional 48 weeks, each in combination with ABC/3TC in antiretroviral (ART)-naive, HIV-1 infected, HLA-B\*5701 negative subjects. All subjects who complete the 84-week study will be eligible to enter the treatment extension phase and continue for an additional 60 weeks. The purpose of this extension is to obtain longer term treatment data in subjects who have completed the 84-week study.
NCT00712816
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a device that delivers cold and intermittent compression as compared to ice and compressive wraps on patients who have undergone knee replacement.
NCT00516659
This is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled field trial to evaluate the epidemiology of natural infection with ETEC occurring after transcutaneous immunization in a field setting.
NCT00657137
This study will compare the anti-tumor efficacy of apricoxib and lapatinib/capecitabine with placebo and lapatinib/capecitabine as measured by time to disease progression and evaluate urinary PGE-M measurements or baseline COX-2 expression in tumor tissue by IHC as a surrogate selection criterion for patients who will benefit from future treatment with apricoxib.
NCT00054223
RATIONALE: Studying individuals who are enrolled in phase I clinical trials may help to improve the way in which clinical trials are conducted. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying patients' personality traits, reasons for participating in the trial, and understanding of their medical situation, prognosis, and risks and benefits of participating in a phase I trial.
NCT00036959
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ABT-751, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of ABT-751 in treating young patients with refractory solid tumors.
NCT00384033
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two doses of DVS SR (50 and 100 mg/day) in the treatment of adults with Major Depressive Disorder.
NCT01095120

NCT00706862
The purpose of the study is to determine whether the combination of talactoferrin, carboplatin and paclitaxel improves progression free survival and overall survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer compared to the combination of paclitaxel and carboplatin alone
NCT00270894
