NCT01665391
The primary objectives of this trial are as follows: * to compare the achievement of a partial remission (PR) or complete remission (CR) in urinary protein: creatinine ratio (Up/c ratio) in patients treated with fresolimumab versus placebo * to compare the safety profile of patients treated with fresolimumab versus placebo The secondary objectives are as follows: * To compare the reduction in proteinuria in patients treated with fresolimumab versus placebo * To evaluate fresolimumab dose-dependent reduction in proteinuria * To compare the change in renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate \[eGFR\]) in patients treated with fresolimumab versus placebo * To evaluate the multiple-dose pharmacokinetics of fresolimumab
NCT00071565
The purposes of this study are to identify possible genes that may increase the risk of aneurysm development in the brain, and to determine the effect of environmental factors such as cigarette smoking and high blood pressure on the expression of these genes.
NCT01159262
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics (PK) of dexmedetomidine (DEX) at 3 different dose levels in infants, ages ≥28 weeks to ≤44 weeks gestational age, administered as a loading dose followed by a continuous infusion for a minimum of 6 hours and up to 24 hours in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), cardiac intensive care unit (CICU), or pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).
NCT01200303
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of a non-cathartic, computer-assisted form of CT Colonography (Virtual Colonoscopy) for detection of pre-cancerous colon polyps in a group of asymptomatic screening patients.
NCT00000410
This study tests the effectiveness of different treatments for the three most commonly diagnosed lumbar (lower) spine conditions. The purpose of the study is to learn which of two commonly prescribed treatments (surgery and non-surgical therapy) works better for specific types of low back pain. In this part of the study, people with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation (damage to the tissue between the bones of the lower spine, or backbone) will receive either discectomy (surgical removal of herniated disc material) or non-surgical treatment. This study does not cover the cost of treatment.
NCT00272792
The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the ability of Phenoptin to increase phenylalanine (phe) tolerance in children with phenylketonuria who are following a phe-restricted diet.
NCT00044291
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the first line combination hormonal therapy of an experimental drug, atamestane, plus an FDA-approved drug, toremifene (Fareston®), is more effective than another approved drug, letrozole (Femara®), in delaying the growth of breast cancer in postmenopausal patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, and whether the side effects of the combination are different from the side effects of letrozole.
NCT00466817
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is known to cause hearing loss and mental retardation. The purpose of this study is to compare a 6-week course to a 6-month course of the drug valganciclovir in babies born with CMV to assess the safety and efficacy of this treatment. Participants will include 104 infants (30 days old or younger) born with CMV disease. All infants will take valganciclovir by mouth for 6 weeks. At the end of the 6 week period, subjects will be assigned by chance to receive either valganciclovir or placebo (inactive substance) to complete the 6 months of antiviral treatment. Patients will be followed for the study related evaluations of safety, changes to hearing, and developmental milestones for up to 2 years. Patients will be followed by telephone contact for an additional 3 years. Thus, participants may be involved in study related procedures for approximately 5 years.
NCT00997503
The TAXUS Libertē Post-Approval Study is an FDA-mandated prospective, multi-center study designed to collect real-world safety and clinical outcomes in approximately 4,200 patients receiving one or more TAXUS Liberté Paclitaxel-Eluting Stents and prasugrel as part of a dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) drug regimen. This study will also contribute patient data to an FDA-requested and industry-sponsored research study that will evaluate the optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT Study).
NCT00761462
Objective and subjective musculoskeletal evaluations will be performed to determine differences in the ciprofloxacin versus non-quinolone treated pediatric patients so that we can tell what the natural occurrence of such musculoskeletal conditions is in the general pediatric population.
NCT00337129
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as E7389, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well E7389 works in treating patients with metastatic or recurrent head and neck cancer.
NCT00941031
The purpose of the study is to determine whether, in patients with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis, AIN457 administered subcutaneously reduces the severity of psoriasis symptoms and the extent to which the patient's body area is affected by the disease (compared to placebo).
NCT00610090
The primary study objective, at this time, is to follow out to 5 years post implant the safety of already enrolled subjects who were treated with the UniFit Aorto-uni-iliac (AUI) Endoluminal Stent Graft (the "study device") for the repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs).
NCT00696020
The primary objective of this study is to determine the optimum dose(s) of BI 1744 CL administered with 5 micrograms tiotropium bromide solution for inhalation, delivered by the Respimat inhaler, once daily for four weeks in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
NCT02056574
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-dose study investigating the safety and efficacy of NA-1 in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) undergoing endovascular repair of ruptured intracranial aneurysms. Up to 300 male and female patients with SAH undergoing endovascular repair of a ruptured intracranial aneurysm will be dosed with 2.60 mg/kg of NA-1 or placebo as a 10 minute intravenous infusion after completion of the endovascular procedure on Day 1 of the study period. Subjects will undergo interim procedures at Day 2-4, Day 30-45, and end-of-study procedures on Day 90.
NCT00887588
The study will assess the effects of 36 weeks of treatment with LCZ696 compared to valsartan on N-terminal pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) in patients with chronic heart failure and preserved left-ventricular ejection fraction.
NCT00431964
This is a study to examine the safety, effect on lung function, and frequency of symptoms relating to cystic fibrosis during 24 weeks of treatment with the antibiotic azithromycin in 6-18 year-olds with CF who are not infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
NCT01506401
What is the effect of early high frequency oscillation (HFO) versus a lung-protective conventional ventilation (CV) strategy (using HFO only as rescue therapy), on all-cause hospital mortality among patients with severe early acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)?
NCT00003636
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining surgery with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether chemotherapy before surgery is more effective than chemotherapy after surgery in treating ovarian, peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying chemotherapy given before surgery to see how well it works compared to chemotherapy given after surgery with or without additional surgery in treating patients with stage III or stage IV ovarian cancer, peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer.
NCT00487188
