NCT00267267
The Torcetrapib project was terminated on December 2, 2006 due to safety findings. Cholesterol levels will be measured over six weeks in subjects being treated with two different kinds of combination cholesterol medications to see how the different treatments compare to one another.
NCT00318500
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two doses of ERB-041 (75 mg and 150 mg) relative to placebo on the relief of endometriosis-related symptoms (dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain, and deep dyspareunia) in reproductive aged women.
NCT00381732
This is a multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel design study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2.5mg and 5mg tadalafil taken once daily in men with erectile dysfunction.
NCT00098124
Antidepressants of all varieties represent a common form of therapy for many chronic states including fibromyalgia. The majority of antidepressants increase the levels of serotonin or norepinephrine in the central nervous system. Milnacipran is a dual norepinephrine and serotonin reuptake inhibitor and may be effective in the treatment of fibromyalgia.
NCT00047723
The purpose of this trial is to test the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of minocycline compared to placebo in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
NCT00132288
This is a study of whether physical activity of older adults can be improved by linking primary care clinics serving older adults to a community-based program that provides motivational support, including peer counselors, for engaging in and maintaining moderate levels of physical activity. Health care providers at the participating study sites routinely assess and track diabetic patients' physical activity. In addition to this routine care, study volunteers are referred to a support program that has been modelled on the Active Choices Program. Changes in volunteers' levels of activity are measured at 3, 6, and 12 months.
NCT00050375
This study will compare the time to disease relapse between OvaRex® MAb-B43.13-treated patients and placebo-treated patients. This study will also compare assessments of survival, quality of life, immune response and safety between active and placebo groups.
NCT00229580
The purpose of this study was to explore whether a brief (3 session) intervention would impact health behavior of veterans with hepatitis C. The main focus of the intervention was on reduction of heavy drinking with patients who have liver disease. Other study goals were to increase the likelihood that patients would seek out substance use treatment and/or hepatitis C health care services. The study also tested the use of a liver function test called CDT/GGT in detecting heavy drinking. The main hypothesis was that a 3 session intervention with personalized feedback about health behavior would result in a reduction in alcohol use and increased use of substance use treatment and hepatology health care.
NCT00283829
The purpose of this study is to test if interleukin-2, a drug that stimulates the immune system, can be used after chemotherapy to slow the progression of your disease. We also want to test what the best dose of interleukin-2 is that can be used safely at home. Interleukin-2, abbreviated as IL2, is a naturally produced growth hormone for the immune cells in our body. It stimulates the growth of the immune cells and enhances their ability to fight infections and cancers. In people with cancer, the immune cells are typically suppressed and became even more so after irradiation and chemotherapy treatment. By giving you more IL2 we hope to enhance the immune system so that it can fight the cancer better, control cancer growth and shrink the cancer.
NCT00245895
The purpose of this study is to see if darbepoetin alfa is an effective treatment for anemia in prostate cancer patients and, if so, what dose is most effective. Sometimes prostate cancer patients have low red blood cell counts (low hemoglobin) from various treatments they are receiving, such as chemotherapy. The red blood cells deliver oxygen to the tissue. This then helps give the patient more energy.
NCT00230477
This project is a randomized, open-label trial of adefovir dipivoxil (Hepsera) and lamivudine combination therapy versus adefovir dipivoxil (Hepsera) monotherapy. Both adefovir dipivoxil and lamivudine are nucleoside analogues approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B. The primary hypothesis is that subjects treated with combination therapy will see their viral DNA count decrease in an amount greater than subjects treated with monotherapy. The secondary hypothesis is that subjects treated with combination therapy will have a higher HBeAg conversion rate compared to historical controls of subjects treated with lamivudine or adefovir dipivoxil monotherapy.
NCT00194805
This study will examine the feasibility and short and-long-term efficacy of a web-based telehealth intervention with community-dwelling older adults who have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Effectiveness will be evaluated using multiple measures within three different domains: 1) physical (glycosylated hemoglobin \[HbA1C\], weight, and lipid levels); 2) behavioral (monitoring blood glucose levels, feet inspections, diet, and exercise frequency), and 3) psychosocial (depression, quality of life, social support, and adjustment to diabetes). This is a randomized controlled trial of a web-based telehealth intervention designed to improve self-management behaviors in a group of community dwelling older diabetics. Two groups of participants will be recruited and randomized over a four-month period during years 01 and 02. Participants in the control group will receive standard diabetic care provided by their provider. Participants in the intervention group will receive computer training in the participant's home in how to access and utilize the web-based telehealth study webpage. The intervention will consist of a program designed and delivered via the Internet to improve the participants' diabetes self-management behaviors using behavioral and motivational strategies and cues to modify perceptions of self-efficacy and beliefs regarding the ability to affect the progress of the disease and change personal behavior.
NCT00425620
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Amphotericin B suspension versus placebo in the complete resolution of key chronic sinusitis symptoms during 16 weeks of treatment in patients with refractory, postsurgical CS.
NCT00337389
To compare the progression-free survival time (PFS) in patients treated with 5-FU modulated with CoFactor (plus bevacizumab) to 5-FU modulated with leucovorin (plus bevacizumab) in patients with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.
NCT00296387
The purpose of this study is to see if rosuvastatin compared to Atorvastatin is effective in treating ACS by decreasing the ApoB/ApoA-1 ratio and if starting statin within 24 h following the onset of the first symptoms is beneficial compared to placebo.
NCT00137332
The purpose of this study is to learn the effects of a test drug on heart rhythms, which may become life-threatening if left untreated, and to provide data to see if the drug is well tolerated and safe.
NCT00050609
The purposes of this study are to determine whether an experimental drug known as tadalafil can reduce symptoms of dyspepsia (fullness after eating, inability to finish a regular meal, bloating, discomfort or pain in the upper abdomen, belching after meals, nausea, vomiting) in diabetic patients, and/or reduce the amount of time the stomach takes to empty the contents of a standard meal. The safety of tadalafil given once daily for 8 weeks in this population will also be studied.
NCT00568737
Adult Patients with Severe Sepsis
NCT00440492
The purpose of this study is to determine if PLA-695 changes the blood concentrations of methotrexate when administered together.
NCT00120172
Currently there is no one standard of care for older patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. The study will examine the tumor response to capecitabine, oxaliplatin, plus bevacizumab. The study will also gather information on the usefulness and side effects of this treatment combination.
