NCT00087698
This study aims to determine how successful the chemotherapy regimen of Pemetrexed plus cisplatin before surgery is at killing all the tumor so that none is left at the time of surgery. Following surgery, all eligible patients will receive radiation to the chest. How patients respond, whether the cancer returns and if so, where, will also be monitored.
NCT00105547
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the change in cognitive ability and activities of daily living in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) as measured by specific evaluations during 18 months of dosing.
NCT00661245
The TOGA® trial is a prospective, multi-center, randomized sham-controlled trial designed to determine the safety and effectiveness of the TOGA System for the treatment of morbid obesity. The study will also determine the effect of the treatment on co-morbidities and quality of life. Subjects will be blinded to treatment or sham. Sham arm may crossover to TOGA treatment at 12 months.
NCT00683267
Evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a single intraoperative dose of 4975 in patients undergoing total hip replacement
NCT00496002
The objectives of this study are to compare in nucleoside treatment-naïve subjects, the efficacy and safety of clevudine 30 mg once daily versus adefovir 10 mg once daily, each as monotherapy, for 48 weeks and 96 weeks.
NCT00382798
This is an adaptive Phase I study to evaluate RO5024048 in the following groups: * Healthy Volunteers (Part 1 - Single Ascending Dose Study) -Enrollment completed * Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 infected patients who have failed interferon therapy (Part 2- Multiple Ascending Dose Study)-Enrollment Completed * HCV genotype 1-infected patients who are treatment naive, to be dosed in combination with PEG-IFN and RBV (Part 3 - Combination Dose Study)-Currently Enrolling * HCV genotype 2-3 infected patients who have previously been treated with interferon but who did not respond, to be dosed in combination with PEG-IFN and RBV (Part 3 - Combination Dose Study)- Currently enrolling The study aims to determine if RO5024048 is safe and well-tolerated in healthy people and in people infected with hepatitis C virus. The amount of RO5024048 in the blood will be measured during the study and the amount of hepatitis C virus in the blood after each dose will also be measured. During Part 3 of the study, RO5024048 will be given with PEG-IFN and RBV, two drugs currently used and approved for the treatment of HCV.
NCT00496158
The objectives of this study are to compare in nucleoside treatment-naïve subjects, the efficacy and safety of clevudine 30 mg once daily versus adefovir 10 mg once daily, each as monotherapy, for 48 weeks, 72 weeks, and 96 weeks.
NCT00665548
The purpose of the study is to use different x-ray and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging techniques to take pictures of the knee. There are two specific purposes to the study: 1. whether the different x-ray and MRI techniques will give the same or different information about the knee joint and 2. which part of the knee joint will show the biggest change using the different x-ray and MRI techniques. The study is not designed to test a hypothesis.
NCT00206622
To determine the lowest effective dose of estradiol by comparing E2/LNG (2.2mg/0.69mg) and E2 (1.0mg) dose with placebo in decreasing the frequency and severity of moderate to severe hot flushes in postmenopausal women
NCT00029848
To assess the effect on weight loss and weight maintenance over a period of one year when prescribed with a hypocaloric diet in obese patients with Type 2 Diabetes
NCT00192517
The primary objective of this study is to compare the effects on disease activity, in the absence of systemic psoriasis therapy, of 4 mg/kg MEDI-522 versus placebo administered weekly by SC injection for 12 weeks.
NCT00889941
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the size of the pupil has an effect on quality of vision in patients undergoing LASIK surgery.
NCT00399646
The purpose of the Metricath Gemini System is to pre-dilate the target treatment area, take arterial lumen measurements in a native section of artery or within the deployed stent and perform further dilation of the deployed stent if required. In this manner, the Metricath Gemini System can assist the Interventionalist by providing arterial measurements prior to stenting, performing pre-stenting angioplasty, taking within stent measurements to help determine if the stent is fully deployed, and by performing post-stenting dilations to further dilate the stent if required.
NCT00206180
The purpose of this study is to decide if controlling stomach acid is related to healing of erosive esophagitis after treatment with esomeprazole magnesium (NEXIUM®) 10 mg and 40 mg once daily.
NCT00329264
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that quetiapine SR (SEROQUEL®) is efficacious and safe in the acute treatment of patients with Generalized Anxiety Disorder. PLEASE NOTE: Seroquel SR and Seroquel XR refer to the same formulation. The SR designation was changed to XR after consultation with FDA.
NCT00329446
NCT00085891
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate superior efficacy of sustained release quetiapine compared to placebo in patients with schizophrenia after receiving treatment for up to 6 weeks.
NCT00083564
STR (Skeletal Targeted Radiotherapy, 166Ho-DOTMP) is an investigational radiopharmaceutical that delivers radiation directly to cancer cells in the bone and bone marrow. Conventional methods of delivering radiation therapy, such as total body irradiation, expose non-target tissues to radiation and cause serious side effects. In contrast, STR's targeted approach to delivering radiotherapy concentrates the radiation where it is needed, and minimizes exposure of normal tissues. STR is composed of a bone-targeting molecule, DOTMP, in a stable complex with the radionuclide holmium-166. When injected into a patient's bloodstream, STR rapidly binds to bone mineral, delivering a brief, intense dose of radiation to destroy cancer cells in the bone and marrow. The high-energy and long path-length of holmium-166 beta particles provide optimal penetration and uniform irradiation of disease sites in the marrow and bone. STR that does not bind to bone is rapidly eliminated through the urinary tract. STR treatment is followed by autologous stem cell transplantation. The short half-life of holmium-166 allows treatment on an out-patient basis, and minimizes the time required between STR administration and transplantation. The phase III study of STR is a multi-center, randomized, controlled study, designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of STR in patients with primary refractory multiple myeloma. These are patients who have failed to achieve at least a partial response to conventional therapy and have been undergoing treatment for less than 18 months. The trial is expected to enroll approximately 240 evaluable patients, half on the experimental arm and half on the control arm. Patients on the experimental arm will receive STR at a dose of 750 mCi/m2 plus the chemotherapy drug melphalan at 200 mg/m2, followed by autologous stem cell transplantation. Patients on the control arm will receive melphalan only, followed by transplantation. Patients on both study arms will be evaluated for response to treatment six months after transplantation, using an immunofixation assay to detect myeloma protein in patient samples. Analysis of patient samples will be conducted at a central laboratory, and blinded results will be reviewed by an independent panel of experts. The study's primary endpoint is complete response, as determined by the complete disappearance of myeloma protein at six months post-transplant.
NCT00063570
The purpose of the study is to determine if the two drugs can help patients feel better while causing the tumor to become smaller or disappear; evaluate the safety of giving both pemetrexed and gemcitabine in patients with advanced breast cancer.
NCT00261352
This is a 24-week study to determine the lipid metabolic effects, safety, and tolerability of tesaglitazar compared with metformin and metformin in combination with fenofibrate in patients with type 2 diabetes and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Improvement in dyslipidemia will be evaluated. The study comprises a 2-week enrollment period, 6-week run-in and a 24-week randomized, double blind, parallel group, multi-center, active controlled (metformin with or without fenofibrate) treatment period and a 3-week follow-up. From visit 2 (run-in), all patients will receive a standardized dose of statin (rosuvastatin)
