This trial seeks to describe the effect of withdrawal from mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) on risk of clinically significant disease reactivation in quiescent SLE patients who have been on long-term MMF therapy.
NCT00005970
This randomized phase III trial studies doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel, and trastuzumab to see how well they work compared to combination chemotherapy alone in treating women with breast cancer that is human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive and has spread to the lymph nodes or high-risk and has not spread to the lymph nodes. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without trastuzumab in treating breast cancer.
NCT04176627
* As studied previously, lung congestion is very prevalent however usually asymptomatic in dialysis patients. Fluid overload is associated with hospitalizations, worse cardiovascular outcomes and mortality in PD patients. * The clinical exam is the only tool used currently to monitor volume status of PD patients, and has been found to have poor sensitivity and specificity for lung congestion compared to lung ultrasound. In current practice, patients are seen and examined monthly at their home dialysis units by the nurses. The nephrologist separately examines the patient monthly, possibly days to weeks after the nurse visit, and potentially only quarterly with the use of telehealth visits. * Lung ultrasound is a relatively simple and cheap tool to assess for lung congestion, with little inter-operator variability and good reproducibility. * There are limited studies of lung ultrasound in peritoneal dialysis, and none in the United States. Lung ultrasound may be useful as an objective measure of lung congestion in patients without signs or symptoms of fluid overload. Aims of this study * This study aims to determine the prevalence of subclinical fluid overload in peritoneal dialysis patients. * The investigators aim to determine the added benefit of lung ultrasound to standard clinical practice of fluid management in PD patients. * The investigators aim to assess the association of patient characteristics with lung congestion. * The investigators also aim to assess the agreement between nurse physical exam and lung ultrasound for fluid overload.
NCT03212300
This is a randomized study to examine whether aerobic exercise training (AET) before total shoulder replacement (TSR) surgery reduces the incidence of post-operative delirium (POD) and shorten time to recovery in elderly patients. POD is a form of sudden change in mental function that can be experienced after undergoing surgery.
NCT02925962
The investigators propose a three-arm, pragmatic, cluster-randomized clinical trial based in primary care. Participating Primary Care Providers (PCPs) will be randomized to usual care or one of two intervention arms. The first intervention will evaluate the efficacy of an automated CDSS that utilizes the electronic health record (EHR) to facilitate triple marker test ordering, guideline implementation and BP management, compared with usual care, among patients with previous documentation of eGFRcreat \<60 ml/min/1.73m2. The second intervention goes a step further, and will evaluate whether a CDSS plus a follow-up telephone call from a pharmacist (CDSS PLUS) can improve BP management and patient CKD and NSAID toxicity knowledge among the patients with CKD, compared with CDSS alone. The primary clinical outcome is BP level, with secondary outcomes related to processes of care and patient knowledge.
NCT01956669
The study design was an open-label Phase II pediatric clinical study. The purpose of Study X2203 was to identify any efficacy signal in subjects with the disease subtypes under study, when treated with pazopanib monotherapy. Furthermore, it was to define the toxicities of pazopanib in children, as well as examine biological markers, e.g. cytokines and angiogenic factors, that could help further characterize any response of pazopanib in children. Pazopanib was administered as monotherapy in tablet and powder suspension formulations at daily doses of 450 mg/m2/dose or 225 mg/m2/dose, respectively. The first 6 enrolled subjects receiving oral suspension formulation were assessed for tolerability and extended PK sampling; and, only if pazopanib was tolerated, subsequent subjects were enrolled at the same starting dose with the suspension. Dose escalation was not permitted. For the tablet, a dosing nomogram was used based on the subject's BSA. Dose reduction was dependent upon the toxicity of pazopanib and disease status of the infants, toddlers, children, adolescents, and young adults. Subjects could be as young as 1 year-old infants to screen for enrollment. Subjects were assessed for initial response after 8 weeks of treatment prior to Cycle 3. A cycle was defined as 28 days of pazopanib treatment with no rest period between cycles. Treatment was administered continuously once daily. Treatment was to be discontinued if there was evidence of disease progression, unacceptable treatment-related toxicity, pregnancy. Histological classification was an important diagnostic inclusion in these subjects with a wide variety of refractory solid tumors, i.e. 7 different tumor types and each being a cohort.
NCT03286179
Chest pain is the second leading reason for emergency department (ED) visits in the United States. Resource utilization for this ED subpopulation is particularly high, in part due to a dearth of accepted standardized clinical approaches and general overestimation of risk on the part of both providers and patients. This prospective observational cohort study seeks to address this issue by providing externally validated risk scores for major adverse cardiac events using a web-based clinical decision support platform (RISTRA) embedded within the electronic health record at 13 Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC) EDs over a 12-month period. The decision support will provide risk estimates specific to the KPNC patient population. This studies hypothesis is that the provision of more accurate risk estimation for major adverse cardiac events will improve informed decision making by both providers and patients, resulting in less provocative testing and lower ED lengths of stay amongst low risk patients, as well as improving medical management among non-low risk patients and decreasing future rates of major adverse cardiac events.
NCT03163303

NCT01157117
Food allergy affects up to 4% of the U.S. population and is most common in young children. Milk allergy is the most common cause of food allergy in infants and young children, and usually develops in the first year of life. There is no treatment for food allergy and the current standard of care for milk-allergic individuals is the avoidance of milk-containing products. Research is underway to identify potential therapeutic strategies to reduce or eliminate the adverse effects experienced by milk-allergic individuals when they consume milk-containing products. Several studies have suggested that milk-allergic children who receive milk protein oral immunotherapy (OIT) may become desensitized to milk, resulting in short term protection against accidental ingestion of milk products. However, these children did not develop "tolerance," which is long term protection even after milk immunotherapy is stopped. A potential strategy to induce tolerance to milk uses milk in combination with Xolair® (omalizumab). Xolair consists of anti-IgE molecules that attach to IgE, the major antibody involved in allergic reactions. The goal of this clinical trial is to see whether Xolair® in combination with milk protein OIT is safer and more effective than OIT alone in inducing tolerance to milk and milk products. Participants will be administered a double blind, placebo controlled milk challenge at various time points in the study. If desensitization is achieved participants will be tested for tolerance at a certain time point after stopping treatment.

NCT00598169
RATIONALE: Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. It is not yet known whether giving bortezomib together with combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without rituximab in treating AIDS-related non-Hodgkin lymphoma. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying giving bortezomib together with dexamethasone, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide to see how well it works with or without rituximab in treating patients with relapsed or refractory AIDS-related non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
NCT04513821
This is an Intermediate-Size Expanded Access, Open-Label Study for Use of Mino-Lok Therapy (MLT) in Combination with Systemic Antibiotics in the Treatment of Central Line Associated Bloodstream Infection. Mino-Lok may be made available for patients who otherwise do not qualify for the phase 3 clinical trial (NCT02901717 )
NCT02032433
CTN-0051 assesses the comparative effectiveness of extended release injectable naltrexone (XR-NTX, Vivitrol®), an opioid antagonist recently approved and indicated for the prevention of relapse to opioid dependence, versus buprenorphine-naloxone (BUP-NX, Suboxone®), a high affinity partial agonist indicated for maintenance treatment of opioid dependence, as pharmacotherapeutic aids to recovery. The study is conducted in 8 NIDA Clinical Trials Network affiliated community based treatment programs. Up to 600 eligible participants will be randomized to treatment with XR-NTX or BUP-NX for 24 weeks (sufficient to include 350 participants who are randomized more than 72 hours after their last opioid). The primary goal of the study is to estimate the difference, if one exists, between XR-NTX and BUP-NX in the distribution of the time to relapse (i.e.., loss of persistent abstinence) during the 6-month trial. Secondary objectives are to: (1) compare outcome on XR-NTX versus BUP-NX across a range of clinical safety and secondary efficacy domains, and (2) explore demographic and, clinical, and genetic predictors of successful treatment and moderators of differential effectiveness (i.e., what variables may help clinicians choose which of these treatments is best for a given patient).), and (3) collect a limited dataset to permit analyses of economic costs and benefits of the two treatments.
NCT01650298
