NCT01426919
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the utility of the Banyan UCH-L1/GFAP Detection Assay as an aid in the evaluation of suspected traumatic brain injury (Glasgow Coma Scale score 9-15) in conjunction with other clinical information within 12 hours of injury to assist in determining the need for a CT scan of the head.
NCT04086641
The purpose of this study is to compare the functional differences between two types of foot prostheses for people with ankle disarticulation (Syme's) amputations. The two feet being tested are low- and high-profile feet, with the difference being the latter has an extended keel and attaches to the posterior of the prosthetic socket, rather than the distal end. The hypothesis is that the high-profile foot (i.e., the crossover foot) will lead to functional and biomechanical improvements compared to low-profile feet.

The secondary objectives of this study are: to evaluate the efficacy of BG00011 compared with placebo in participants with IPF as determined by change in percent predicted forced (expiratory) vital capacity (FVC); to assess progression-free survival in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; to assess the occurrence of IPF exacerbation in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; to assess the incidence of absolute decline in FVC ≥10% in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; to assess the time to death or lung transplantation in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo, and the transplant-free survival rate at Week 26 and Week 52; to assess the time to non-elective hospitalizations in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; to assess additional pulmonary function test (PFT) findings in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; To assess performance on the 6 minute walk test (6MWT) in participants who receive BG00011 compared with placebo; to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BG00011; and to evaluate the serum concentration of BG00011.
NCT01278758
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of ASA404 in patients with refractory or relapsed metastatic cancer with impaired renal function and with normal renal function. It is very possible that patients with renal impairment will show differences in renal excretion of parent ASA404 and its metabolites, warranting a study that leads to a better pharmacokinetic assesssment in this population.
NCT03585231
Conversational agents (CAs) are computer-powered digital coaches designed to form long-term social-emotional connections with users through conversations. We have developed a CA for cigarette smoking cessation. In a pilot randomized trial (N = 415), we will compare the experimental messaging program (n = 155) with the standard of care national government smoking cessation messaging program (n = 157), and then we will compare immediate (n=51) versus delayed (n=51) access to the the experimental messaging program, to assess 12-week usability, receptivity, and preliminary cessation results in adults in western Washington State and nationally across the US who want to quit smoking.
NCT01261793
The primary objective of the study is to confirm the clinical efficacy of epratuzumab in the treatment of subjects with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).
NCT03262441
This is an open label, randomized Phase II study to determine whether Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) given over 22 months meaningfully decreases the size of participants' HIV reservoir. In addition to primary safety endpoints, the following hypotheses regarding drug efficacy will be tested: 1. MMF will be well tolerated and will not decrease adherence to or antiviral efficacy of ART. 2. Peripheral CD4+ T-cell counts and percentages will not meaningfully decrease during treatment with MMF and ART. 3. There will be no excess risk of opportunistic infections in MMF-treated study participants. 4. MMF therapy will lead to a progressive decrease in reservoir size over 22 months of treatment. 5. MMF therapy will lead to a continual shift in HIV reservoir composition from primarily effector memory CD4+ T cells (TEM) and central memory CD4+ T cells (TCM), to primarily stem cell like memory (TSCM) and naïve (TN) CD4+ T cells. 6. MMF will eliminate detectable measures of the HIV reservoir, including by cell-associated DNA/mRNA and quantitative viral outgrowth. 7. MMF will not decrease the humoral immune response to routine annual influenza vaccination.

This study assesses the mean difference in fluid balance at ICU discharge and associated patient outcomes, based on a dynamic assessment of fluid responsiveness in septic patients with refractory hypotension in an ICU setting.
NCT03435588
Currently, the best way to evaluate pancreatic masses is through endoscopic-guided needle sampling of the mass to determine the diagnosis by looking at the acquired tissue under a microscope. This is done by inserting a small camera (endoscope) through the mouth of the patient then advanced to the stomach and using ultrasound guidance a sample of the pancreas can be acquired through the stomach. The sampling is usually done with a small needle called fine needle aspiration needle or FNA. FNA alone is sometimes limited due to inadequate acquisition of cells for proper diagnosis under the microscope, which can lead to need for repeat endoscopic procedures and delay in diagnosis and possibly treatment. Rapid on-site evaluation of cytopathology (ROSE) is where a cytopathologist is next to the physician doing the endoscopic procedures and evaluates each sampling performed immediately under the microscope and can give feedback to the endoscopist until enough cells has been acquired for a diagnosis. This method has been shown to increase the ability to diagnose pancreatic cancer but is expensive and requires significant amount of resources. New needles called core needles (fine needle biopsy, FNB) have recently been developed which not only acquires cells but also the entire tissue structure (histology) and has been shown to be also very accurate in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. The purpose of this study is to compare endoscopy-guided biopsy of pancreatic masses with the new core needle (FNB), which can obtain more tissue for diagnosis vs. using a traditional needle (FNA) with the help of an immediate assessment of the obtained samples under the microscope to determine whether enough tissue has been obtained (ROSE). Both approaches have been shown to increase the accuracy of diagnosis in solid pancreatic masses but it is unclear which one is superior. This is a randomized trial meaning that the participants would either undergo biopsy with the new needle or with the traditional needle plus the addition of on-site assessment of the obtained samples. The advantage of the new needle is that it is easy to implement and likely much cheaper. If the investigators can show in our study that the new needles are as accurate as FNA with ROSE then FNB could be implemented across hospitals worldwide in an easier and less expensive fashion.
NCT03199703
This will be a prospective single-blinded, randomized, controlled trial comparing the effectiveness and safety of transseptal puncture using the Baylis transseptal system to transseptal left atrial access with standard transseptal equipment (usual care) in patients undergoing catheter ablation procedures for atrial fibrillation with the cryoballoon system. The targeted population will consist of patients with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation undergoing pulmonary vein isolation with the cryoballoon system.
NCT02310763
This is a Phase 2 randomized, 2-period, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, PK and PD of PF-06252616 administered to ambulatory boys diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Three intravenous (IV) dose levels will be investigated in a within subject dose escalating fashion. Subjects will be randomly assigned to 1 of 3 sequence groups for approximately 96 weeks (2 periods of 48 weeks each). In period 1, two of the sequence groups will receive PF-06252616 and one sequence group will receive placebo. In period 2, the placebo group will switch to PF-06252616 and the two remaining sequence groups will either receive placebo or PF-06252616. Efficacy will be based on an observed mean change from baseline on function (4 stair climb) of PF-06252616 as compared to the placebo at the end of period 1. Period 2 provides an opportunity to evaluate PK. Subjects will receive monthly IV infused doses of either PF-06252616 or placebo and will undergo safety evaluations (Laboratory, cardiac monitoring, physical exams, x-ray, MRI), functional evaluations (pulmonary function testing, 4 stair climb, range of motion, strength testing, Northstar Ambulatory Assessment, upper limb functional testing and the six minute walk test), pharmacokinetic testing and pharmacodynamic testing to evaluate changes in muscle volume (MRI).
NCT02405182
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a disabling and rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disorder. There is no treatment that significantly slows progression. Increasing age is an important risk factor for developing ALS; thus, the societal impact of this devastating disease will become more profound as the population ages. A significant hurdle to finding effective treatment has been an inability to accurately measure brain degeneration in humans. Advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques hold promise in this respect, and may assist in aiding diagnosis and the efficient testing of new drugs. Different MRI features of brain degeneration will be measured in a large sample of patients with ALS. The study will operate within the Canadian ALS Neuroimaging Consortium (CALSNIC). CALSNIC is a clinical research platform comprised of ALS clinics with standardized clinical and neuroimaging protocols.
