NCT01110720
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of davunetide for the treatment of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy.
NCT00608192
This randomized clinical trial will examine the effectiveness of a strategy of HIV and Hepatitis Care Coordination (HCC) consisting of testing, education, counseling and vaccination for methadone maintenance patients compared with standard Testing, Education, and Counseling (TEC).
NCT01450735
The MANOS device is a carpal tunnel blade used to perform carpal tunnel release (CTR). CTR is indicated for the treatment of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome when conservative therapy fails. This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CTR with the MANOS device.
NCT01256606
The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a blood test for pregnant women for detection of fetal aneuploidy.
NCT00357253
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Capecitabine may make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. Giving capecitabine together with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of capecitabine when given together with radiation therapy in treating young patients with newly diagnosed, nonmetastatic brain stem glioma or high-grade glioma.
NCT00086190
The purpose of this study is to find out if two antidepressant medications, paroxetine and venlafaxine, can help control depression in Parkinson's disease, and if these medications affect the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease such as tremor, stiffness, slowness, and balance.
NCT01027325
The alarming increase in the prevalence of obesity is a cause of great concern given its association with many adverse health conditions, including insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, which are associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. The primary objective of this project is to identify effective dietary strategies, focused on carbohydrate quantity and starch digestibility, to improve outcome variables associated with CVD risk in insulin resistant individuals who express components of the atherogenic lipoprotein phenotype (ALP). Current dietary guidelines emphasize substitution of carbohydrate calories for total and saturated fat calories for prevention and management of chronic disease. Yet, we and others have shown that high-carbohydrate diets increase the expression of the ALP, characterized by increased plasma triglycerides, reduced HDL cholesterol, and increased levels of small, dense LDL particles, and that this phenotype is reversed by moderate carbohydrate restriction. We have also shown that expression of stearoyl coenzymeA desaturase (SCD), an enzyme involved in triglyceride synthesis, is reduced with carbohydrate restriction and that this change is correlated with plasma triglyceride response. While carbohydrate restriction is effective for management of ALP, the role of starch quality has not been addressed. Furthermore, there has been no study of the effects of resistant vs. digestible starches incorporated into high- vs. lower carbohydrate diets. Since isolated reports suggest that increased intake of resistant starch lowers plasma triglycerides and postprandial insulinemia, we hypothesize that starch quality is an important determinant of components of ALP, and that this may be mediated in part by reduced adipose tissue SCD expression. Aim 1 and of this proposal will address this hypothesis by a controlled dietary intervention in 52 insulin resistant men and women in which changes in plasma lipids, lipoproteins and lipogenic gene expression will be determined after substituting resistant starch for digestible starch in a high- vs. lower-carbohydrate diet. In Aim 2, the fasting and postprandial glucose and insulin responses to a resistant vs. digestible starch meal will be measured to test the hypothesis that starch digestibility improves glycemic and insulinemic control in a way that relates to diet-induced changes in plasma lipids and lipoproteins.
NCT00003896
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining paclitaxel, cisplatin, and liposomal doxorubicin in treating women who have undergone surgery for stage III ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer.
NCT00224445
To determine the safety and efficacy of a simple, once-daily antiretroviral (ARV) regimen consisting of a fixed-dose combination tablet containing Truvada combined with atazanavir boosted with ritonavir in treatment naive patients.
NCT00657501
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study of the safety and efficacy of LibiGel 300mcg in the treatment of HSDD in surgically menopausal women.
NCT00901979
This study will assess the effect of LCQ when added to metformin.
NCT00856544
This Phase 3 study is intended to provide evidence that CP-690,550 dosed 5 mg BID and 10 mg BID is safe and effective when used in combination with a variety of traditional disease modifying antirheumatic drugs in adult patients with rheumatoid arthritis. It is intended to confirm the benefits of CP-690,550 in improving signs and symptoms and physical function that were observed in the Phase 2 rheumatoid arthritis studies.
NCT01683110
The objective of this study is to provide access to cabozantinib for eligible subjects with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) pending approval of Exelixis' New Drug Application (NDA) by the FDA and commercial availability of cabozantinib.
NCT01703793
The purpose of this study is to determine if two test products are safe and effective in the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis.
NCT00853385
This is a comparative study of CP 690,550, Humira (adalimumab) and placebo on background methotrexate in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis. The study is intended to provide evidence of the efficacy and safety of CP 690,550 when dosed 5 mg and 10 mg twice a day on background methotrexate in adult patients with moderate to severe Rheumatoid Arthritis. It is intended to confirm the benefits of CP-690,550 in improving signs and symptoms and physical function that were observed in Rheumatoid Arthritis. An active comparator, adalimumab, is also included.
NCT00206245
The primary objective is to compare the efficacy between three doses of AZD0865 (25, 50 and 75 mg). The secondary objectives are to compare the efficacy between the three doses of AZD0865 and esomeprazole 40 mg and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AZD0865.
NCT00206128
The purpose of this study is to determine that the efficacy of the sustained release (SR) formulation of quetiapine (Seroquel) is not inferior to the immediate release (IR) formulation. PLEASE NOTE: Seroquel SR and Seroquel XR refer to the same formulation. The SR designation was changed to XR after consultation with FDA.
