NCT02164513
The study evaluates the efficacy of fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium bromide/vilanterol (FF/UMEC/VI) to reduce the annual rate of moderate and severe exacerbations compared with dual therapy of FF/VI or UMEC/VI in subjects with COPD. Published studies which assessed the use of an 'open' triple therapy (use of Inhaled Corticosteroid \[ICS\]/ Long-acting Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists \[LAMA\])/ Long Acting Beta-Agonist \[LABA\] delivered via multiple inhalers) in moderate-severe COPD patients, reported improvements in lung function, Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), hospitalization rates and rescue medication use, compared to dual therapy (ICS/LABA) or LAMA alone. These studies have also shown similar safety profile with dual or monotherapy doses for periods of up to one year. Given the clinical experience with FF, UMEC and VI, and that the associated risks with these compounds are anticipated from their known pharmacology, the potential benefit of a new therapy option in patients with moderate to severe COPD supports the further development of the closed triple combination (delivered via one inhaler). In the current study subjects meeting all inclusion/exclusion criteria will complete 2-week run-in period; 52 week treatment period and a 1-week safety follow-up period. Eligible subjects will be randomized to one of the following double-blind treatment groups FF/UMEC/VI 100 micrograms (mcg)/62.5 mcg/25 mcg once daily (QD), FF/VI 100 mcg/25 mcg QD, or UMEC/VI 62.5 mcg/25 mcg QD
NCT02750982
This is a prospective investigation of the effects of Laughter therapy (LT) on perceived stress, self-efficacy, mood and other wellness measures in people with the following neurological conditions: Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, brain injury, Huntington's Disease, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's Disease, post-stroke, spinal cord injury.
NCT00118898
Currently, the preferred anti-HIV regimens used in the United States consist of two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and the nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) efavirenz (EFV). However, with new anti-HIV drugs being approved, alternative regimens need to be tested to determine if new drug combinations have increased effectiveness in treating HIV. The purpose of this study is to test the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of four different regimens in HIV-infected adults who have never taken anti-HIV drugs.
NCT00908037
Phase II, multi-center, 3 part, staggered cohort, open-label and double blind, randomized, placebo controlled study involving 3 age-determined cohorts (Cohort 1: between 12 and 17 years old; Cohort 2: between 6 and 11 years old; Cohort 3: between 1 and 5 years old). Daily dosing with eltrombopag will begin with 5 patients in the oldest age cohort in an open label fashion, and a review of safety, pharmacokinetic and platelet count data will be performed regularly. If no safety concerns are identified after 12 weeks, 18 additional patients will be randomised to placebo or eltrombopag (2:1 randomisation). After 7 weeks of randomized treatment, all patients will receive eltrombopag in an open label fashion. The total duration of treatment with eltrombopag will be 24 weeks. If at the time of the aforementioned 12 week review of the first 5 patients no safety issues are identified, dosing will begin in the next lower age cohort with an initial group of 5 patients. The same procedure will be followed in terms of safety review and subsequent enrolment and randomisation of the additional patients. Initiation of the younger age cohort will take place once data from the previous has been evaluated. Doses will be adjusted according to platelet counts and tolerability. The study will include a review of the safety data by a Data Safety Monitoring Board.
NCT01189864
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ultraviolet-A (UVA)-induced cross-linking of corneal collagen (CXL) as a method to increase the biomechanical and biochemical stability of the cornea by inducing additional cross-links within or between collagen fibers using UVA light and the photo- mediator riboflavin. The purpose of this study is to generate data for presentation at medical meetings and for peer-review publication. The data generated by this study will not be submitted to the FDA to support commercialization of these riboflavin drops.
NCT00231166
The purpose of this study is to determine the highest tolerated dose, safety and activity of HCD122 in patients with Multiple Myeloma who are relapsed after receiving prior treatment.
NCT01816074
We hypothesize that successfully treating maternal Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) will have a beneficial effect that extends to the child. We believe that multi-component interventions combining maternal stimulant medication, Lisdexamfetamine (LDX), and Behavioral Parent Training (BPT) will improve parenting, maternal, and child outcomes. In terms of improved parenting, we hypothesize that some mothers may respond well to LDX or BPT alone and therefore may not require multi-modal treatment, whereas others may benefit most from multi-modal treatment
NCT02395042
This is a safety and efficacy study of LiRIS® in females with interstitial cystitis with Hunner's lesions.
NCT01613768
Researchers are doing a research study to examine the use of eribulin (eribulin mesylate) in patients with salivary gland cancer. Researchers want to know if eribulin is safe and effective in treating salivary gland cancer.
NCT00112489
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving paclitaxel together with carboplatin works in treating patients with persistent or recurrent stage III or stage IV uterine cancer.
NCT02184442
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the SAPIEN XT™ THV with the associated delivery system for inoperable patients with severe symptomatic native aortic stenosis.
NCT00430638
This 16 week study will examine the ability of olmesartan medoxomil to lower the blood pressure of patients with moderate to severe high blood pressure in comparison to placebo. The medication being tested has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of high blood pressure.
NCT00846924
Atrial fibrillation is the most common cardiac cause of ischemic stroke. Detecting atrial fibrillation after a stroke or TIA is critical because highly effective secondary stroke prevention therapy is available for individuals who are recognized to have atrial fibrillation. However, atrial fibrillation is likely under-diagnosed after stroke and TIA because atrial fibrillation is often difficult to detect as it is frequently paroxysmal and asymptomatic, and patients do not routinely undergo prolonged screening. The purpose of this study is to determine the diagnostic yield of a novel 30-day cardiac event monitor compared to a repeat 24-hour Holter monitor for detecting occult paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in patients with a recent ischemic stroke or TIA of undetermined etiology after completion of a standard clinical stroke work-up (including an initial negative Holter monitor.)
NCT02823470
The study will evaluate the impact of smart adherence technology for monitoring on lumacaftor/ivacaftor (LUM/IVA) adherence rates among subjects 16 years of age and older with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) who are homozygous for the F508del Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) mutation.
NCT01820325
The Phase Ib part of the study aimed to determine the maximum tolerated dose/recommended Phase II dose (MTD/RP2D) of once daily buparlisib in combination with every-three-week carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with previously untreated metastatic squamous NSCLC. The purpose of the Phase II portion of the study was to assess the treatment effect of adding buparlisib versus buparlisib-matching placebo to every-three-week carboplatin and paclitaxel on progression free survival (PFS) in patients with previously untreated metastatic squamous NSCLC.
NCT03118934

NCT02384135
Prospective validation of an age-adjusted D-dimer cut-off to rule out deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
NCT02358655
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common heart condition, and increases the risk of stroke by six times. There are several medications (blood thinners) that can prevent strokes in AF patients. Many AF patients present to the emergency department, but about half of AF patients leave without prescription of a blood thinner. The study aims to evaluate if adding options like giving a patient education kit, encouraging emergency room physicians to prescribe a blood thinner and providing a specialized AF clinic to patients will increase the number patients receiving blood thinners to prevent strokes.
