Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition that affects the ability of the body to regulate glucose (sugar). When glucose levels are low, the liver can make glucose to increase levels in the body. This important process is called endogenous glucose production (EGP). Previous studies suggest that the central nervous system (CNS), including the brain, helps to coordinate this process by communicating with the liver through potassium channels. Control of EGP can be impaired in people with type 2 diabetes, which may contribute to the high levels of glucose seen in these individuals.
The purpose of this study is to understand how activating these potassium channels in the control centers of the brain with a medication called diazoxide might inhibit the amount of glucose made by the liver. This is particularly important for people with diabetes who have very high production of glucose, which in turn causes hyperglycemia (high levels of sugar in the blood) that leads to diabetes complications.

In this study, the investigators will study healthy participants through a procedure called a "pancreatic clamp" study. During the clamp procedure, glucose (a sugar) and insulin (a hormone produced in the pancreas that regulates the amount of glucose in the blood) are infused with an intravenous catheter, and blood samples are collected periodically throughout the procedure to measure blood sugar levels and the levels of several hormones that are found in the body and are related to glucose metabolism. Endogenous glucose production (the production of sugar by the liver) will be measured in patients given diazoxide (a medication that activates potassium channels in the brain that may affect glucose production in the liver through brain-liver signaling), compared with when a placebo is given.
All experiments will consist of 240 min insulin/somatostatin (250 μg/hr) infusions with replacement of glucoregulatory hormones (glucagon 1 ng/kg·min; growth hormone 3 ng/kg·min). Throughout the study, the plasma glucose concentration will be maintained at basal levels ( \~90 mg/dl). This will be attained by infusion of insulin at adequate rates to maintain normoglycemia without requiring glucose infusion. Primed continuous infusions of High-performance liquid chromatography-purified \[3-3H\]-glucose will be initiated at t=0 (21.6 μCi bolus, then 0.15 μCi/min), to measure glucose fluxes. All infusions will be stopped at t=240 min. From t=0 to t=240 min, blood samples will be obtained for determinations of plasma glucose, insulin, glucagon, C-peptide, cortisol, growth hormone, free fatty acids (FFA), glycerol, and lactate, and for 3-3H-glucose determinations.
This registration is exclusive to Aim 1 of the study protocol, which determined the effect of diazoxide on hepatic glucose production in nondiabetic, healthy, young individuals under fixed hormonal conditions. Euglycemic (90 mg/dl x 4 hours) pancreatic clamp studies (n= 10), with either saline or diazoxide infusion.

This study will evaluate the ability of 4 antibiotics to kill the bacteria that cause tuberculosis (TB). The antibiotics to be studied are linezolid, gatifloxacin, levofloxacin, and moxifloxacin. All are approved by the Brazilian health authorities to treat infections caused by germs other than TB. Seventy human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-negative adults, aged 18-65 years, who have been newly diagnosed with pulmonary (lung) TB, will participate in this study. Study volunteers will be given one of the 4 study drugs or a comparison antibiotic, Isoniazid, which has been used around the world as a standard of care treatment for TB. Volunteers will stay in the hospital for 10 days and be given a study antibiotic 7 of those days. Blood and saliva samples will be taken. Six weeks later, volunteers will return for a final health check. All volunteers will receive 6 months of standard tuberculosis treatment.

Multi-drug resistant tuberculosis now affects all regions of the world and is a significant concern for national tuberculosis (TB) control programs. The development and testing of new drugs and new classes of drugs and immunotherapeutic agents are vital elements in the global response to this challenge. The fluoroquinolones and oxazolidinones represent two promising classes of drugs that show activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). This study is a randomized, open label, multiple dose phase I clinical trial to evaluate the early bactericidal activity (EBA) of gatifloxacin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, and linezolid compared with an isoniazid (INH) control arm in patients with newly-diagnosed sputum smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). Secondary study objectives are to: compare results of sputum MTB messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) clearance with results of a standard EBA study \[change in sputum viable counts \[colony forming units (CFU)\]; compare the rate of clearance of sputum cytokine proteins with results of a standard EBA assay CFU; determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the study drugs in patients with smear-positive pulmonary TB; and demonstrate that lack of EBA activity is not due to low serum drug concentrations. Seventy human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) negative adults, aged 18-65 years, who have been newly diagnosed with pulmonary TB, will be enrolled and admitted to the Centro de Pesquisa (Clinical Research Ward) at the Hospital Universitario Cassiano Antonio de Moraes of the Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo in Vitória. The subjects will be randomized to receive gatifloxacin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, or INH (control), and after these arms are enrolled, they will be randomized to receive either linezolid (600 mg once daily) or linezolid (600 mg twice daily) or INH (control). During the inpatient stay, study drugs will be given for 7 days following a 2-day drug-free period when baseline sputum bacillary counts will be measured. The 7-day duration of the study drug phase will allow measurement of sputum bactericidal activity both during the first 2 days of study drug administration and between days 2 and 7 of study drug administration to gain additional information on the possible sterilizing activity of the drugs. The extended nature of these EBA studies will allow assessment of this possibility in the study drugs that would be missed if a shorter EBA study was performed. Sputum specimens will be collected for 2 days prior to initiation of study drug in order to establish a baseline quantitative culture result and then specimens will be collected daily thereafter. Sputum specimens will be processed to evaluate changes in mycobacterial mRNA/proteins and cytokine proteins. PK studies will be performed after 5 days of study drug administration (Day 5). Safety evaluations including clinical examination, complete blood counts, and serum total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), creatinine, and urinalysis will be followed to monitor for drug toxicity. Drug susceptibility testing will be performed on an initial sputum isolate and will be repeated after completion of 7 days of study drugs, and on isolates from patients with positive sputum cultures at the day 42 study visit to assess for the development of acquired drug resistance. Isolates will be tested against INH, rifampicin, pyrazinamide, ethambutol and the subject's assigned study drug. Patients who are found to be resistant to their assigned study drug at baseline will not be analyzable. After the initial treatment, all subjects will receive 6 months of standard TB treatment outside of the hospital.

This study will assess the usefulness of a technique called complementary deoxyribonucleic acid (cDNA) microarray-an examination of a wide array of genes to identify disease-associated patterns-for measuring tumor response to chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. The study will look for "markers" that can help select the most effective type of chemotherapy. It will also evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new drug combination of capecitabine and docetaxel.
Patients age 18 years and older with stage II or III breast cancer whose tumor is 2 centimeters or larger may be eligible for this study. Those enrolled will be treated with surgery, standard chemotherapy using doxorubicin (Adriamycin) and cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan), and the capecitabine and docetaxel combination.
Patients will have a physical examination, mammogram and magnetic resonance imaging to evaluate their tumor before beginning treatment. They will then have four 21-day treatment cycles of docetaxel and capecitabine, as follows: docetaxel intravenously (through a vein) on day 1 and capecitabine pills (by mouth) twice a day from days 2 through 15. No drugs will be given from days 16 through 21. This regimen will be repeated four times, after which the tumor will be re-evaluated by physical examination, mammogram, and magnetic resonance imaging.
Patients will then have surgery to remove the cancer-either lumpectomy with removal of the underarm lymph nodes; mastectomy and removal of the underarm lymph nodes; or modified radical mastectomy. After recovery, they will have four more cycles of chemotherapy, this time with a doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide. Both drugs will be given intravenously on day 1 of four 21-day cycles.
Some patients who had a mastectomy (depending on their tumor characteristics and whether tumor cells were found in their lymph nodes) and all those who had a lumpectomy will also have radiation therapy. Patients with hormone receptor-positive tumors will also receive tamoxifen treatment for 5 years.
In addition to the above procedures, all patients will have tumor biopsies (removal of a small piece of tumor tissue) before beginning treatment, on day 1 of cycle 1, before cycle 2, and at the time of surgery, and physical examinations, chest X-rays, bone scans, computerized tomography (CT) scans, electrocardiograms, multi-gated acquisition scan-MUGA (nuclear medicine test of cardiac function) or echocardiograms of heart function, mammograms and blood tests at various times during the study. Patients will be followed at National Institutes of Health (NIH) for 3 years after diagnosis with physical examinations, blood tests, X-rays, and computed tomography (CT) scans.
Although it is not known whether this treatment will help an individual patient's cancer, possible benefits are tumor shrinkage and decreased risk of disease recurrence. In addition, the information gained about genetic changes after chemotherapy will help determine if additional studies on the use of cDNA microarray to measure tumor response are warranted.

This phase II trial in patients with stage II and stage III breast cancer will test the feasibility of using cDNA microarray as a measure of a tumor's biological response to chemotherapeutic agents by characterizing the cDNA expression patterns in breast cancer before and after primary chemotherapy. Thirty-six patients receive docetaxel/capecitabine induction chemotherapy followed by surgery and doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide adjuvant therapy (TX/AC). We will determine the response rate of TX induction therapy and the toxicities of the sequential combinations (TX/AC). We will also obtain tumor tissue for correlative biological determinations.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether abciximab given in combination with reteplase, before patients have a coronary intervention (a standard treatment where a catheter is inserted into the heart artery to get blood flowing past the clot), is safe and effective in the treatment of heart attacks compared to only abciximab given during coronary intervention.

The purpose of this medical research study is to determine whether abciximab given in combination with reteplase, before patients have a coronary intervention (a standard treatment where a catheter is inserted into the heart artery to get blood flowing past the clot), is safe and effective in the treatment of heart attacks compared to only abciximab given during coronary intervention. This medical research study will also help determine if the combination of abciximab and reduced dose reteplase will decrease the risk of death, and reduce complications of a heart attack at 90 days compared to abciximab alone which is a standard treatment.
Patients will receive either abciximab and reteplease or abciximab alone. Safety evaluations will be performed at specified intervals throughout the study and will consist of laboratory tests, vital signs (such as blood pressure), physical examinations and the occurrence and severity of adverse events as well as other study specific procedures. Patients will receive either abciximab and reteplease or abciximab and placebo into a vein in their arm for up to 12 hours.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating rosiglitazone: 4 mg tablets or placebo tablets administered orally twice daily for 12 weeks. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rosiglitazone in the treatment of mild to moderately active ulcerative colitis. Disease activity will be measured using a standard disease activity index. Calculation of the index requires patients to undergo flexible sigmoidoscopy at the start of the study and at week 12.

Ulcerative colitis is a disease characterized by inflammation (the changes that happen when tissues in the body are injured) of all or a portion of the large intestine. There is presently no medical cure for ulcerative colitis, although surgical removal of the colon would cure the disease. Ulcerative colitis is generally treated with medications against diarrhea and infection, medications which suppress the immune system (the body system that protects a person against foreign substances) or with surgery.
It is thought that the chronic inflammation associated with ulcerative colitis may be related to the release of certain chemicals produced by the body. Rosiglitazone has been shown to inhibit the production of some of these chemicals. The active component of rosiglitazone has also been shown to improve colitis in animal models of colitis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefit of the drug for ulcerative colitis by comparing it to placebo.
This is a randomized controlled trial of rosiglitazone versus placebo in patients who have failed to respond to 5-ASA therapy. Participants will be randomized to receive either rosiglitazone 4mg bid or placebo bid twice daily for a total of 12 weeks. Disease activity will be measured using the Disease Activity Index (DAI) at visits 3 through 8. Additional outcomes measured will include histological disease activity (visits 3 and 7) and quality of life using the IBDQ (visits 3 through 8). The principle analyses will be an intent-to-treat analysis to examine the efficacy of rosiglitazone at a dose of 4mg twice daily compared to placebo to achieve a partial or complete response. Additionally, the change in NF-κB activation prior to and following therapy with either placebo or rosiglitazone will be examined using immunohistochemistry techniques.

Cyclosporine A (CsA) is a common long-term treatment used to inhibit the immune response in transplant patients who receive donor organs. CsA may also help people with HIV. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of and immune response to CsA when given with abacavir sulfate (ABC), lamivudine (3TC), and zidovudine (AZT), (ABC/3TC/AZT) and lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) to HIV infected adults in the early stages of infection.
Study hypothesis: The combination of CsA and LPV/r given to acutely infected individuals will result in lower levels of proviral DNA and latent infectious virus at 48 weeks compared to acute infected individuals treated with LPV/r alone.
|
During the early stages of HIV infection, HIV replicates unchecked, massive numbers of cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) T cells are infected and destroyed, and other CD4 cells become infected but enter a latent phase. This latent pool of infected CD4 cells poses a difficult challenge in eliminating HIV infection during the early stages of infection because the cells persist for long periods, even with highly active effective antiretroviral therapy, and may later become active.
CsA is popularly used as a lifelong immunosuppressant for organ transplant patients. CsA inhibits cellular activation, including CD4 cell activation and proliferation. By reducing CD4 cell activation during acute HIV infection, fewer CD4 cells may be infected and die; more importantly, there may be fewer latent cells with the potential to become active later in the disease. However, CsA has many potential toxic effects, including renal damage, and may affect neurologic, endocrine, and hepatic organ systems.
In a previous small study of adults with acute HIV infection, a short 8-week course of CsA was well tolerated, and it is thought that a 4-week course of CsA may result in substantial reduction in both viral load and T cell activation, outweighing any potential toxic effects sustained during the one month treatment. This study will evaluate the safety of and immune response to a 4-week course of CsA with ABC/3TC/AZT and LPV/r compared to ABC/3TC/AZT and LPV/r alone in patients with acute HIV infection.
This 48-week study will randomly assign patients to one of two arms. During the first 4 weeks of the study, Arm A will receive one tablet of ABC/3TC/AZT twice daily, 3 capsules or 2 tablets of LPV/r twice daily, and liquid CsA (dose determined by weight) twice daily. At Week 5, Arm A patients will stop CsA but continue both ABC/3TC/AZT and LPV/r. Arm B will receive one tablet of ABC/3TC/AZT twice daily and 3 capsules or 2 tablets of LPV/r twice daily for all 48 weeks. On a case-by-case basis, an investigator may wish to prescribe ABC/3TC rather than ABC/3TC/AZT at initial therapy. Participants with ABC hypersensitivity will be given 3TC/AZT instead of ABC/3TC/AZT.
A complete physical exam and medical history assessment will occur at study entry and at Week 48. Study visits will occur every week until Week 4, then every 4 weeks until the end of the study. Blood and urine collection and clinical assessments will occur at each study visit. Additionally, patients in Arm A only will undergo CsA level monitoring at Day 3 and Weeks 1, 2, and 3; CsA dosage may be adjusted as necessary.

The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the alpha adrenergic blocker Alfuzosin (Uroxatral) in men with relatively new onset of chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS). Alfuzosin is a once daily (10 mg capsule), FDA approved medication for an indication in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The effectiveness of alfuzosin in improving lower urinary tract symptoms in patients with BPH has been documented in a number of placebo-controlled studies. A number of small studies have also suggested that alfuzosin ameliorates CP/CPPS symptoms through a similar alpha-blockade mechanism. This study will enable further testing of this hypothesis
|
The two primary objectives of this study are:
* To compare 12 weeks of treatment with alfuzosin versus placebo in newly-diagnosed, alpha-blocker naive CP/CPPS participants with respect to the primary endpoint in the National Institutes of Health Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIH-CPSI).
* To evaluate the safety and tolerability of 12 weeks of alfuzosin in newly-diagnosed, alpha-blocker naïve CP/CPPS participants.
The proportion of "responders" in each treatment arm will be compared to evaluate the overall safety and efficacy of alfuzosin as compared to placebo. Approximately 270 eligible patients, 135 per treatment arm, will be randomized and followed for a period of twelve (12) weeks after randomization.
There will be four research-clinic visits during which data for the primary and secondary outcome measures will be collected: visit 1 involves screening, visit 2 involves collection of baseline data and randomization, visit 3 is the 6-week evaluation, and visit 4 is the 12-week evaluation of the primary end point.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the combination of AMD3100 (plerixafor) and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF, generic name of filgrastim) is better than G-CSF alone to mobilize and collect the optimal number of stem cells in multiple myeloma patients for autologous transplantation.
|
A peripheral stem cell transplant may be able to replace blood-forming cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy. Currently filgrastim (G-CSF), a colony stimulating factor, is used to cause the growth and mobilization of stem cells from bone marrow to peripheral blood, which can then be collected from the peripheral blood by a process called apheresis. Plerixafor aids in the release of the stem cells from the bone marrow into the peripheral blood, possibly allowing for a more rapid collection of a larger number of stem cells from the peripheral blood. Larger stem cell doses for transplantation correlate to faster recovery times after high dose chemotherapy followed with stem cell transplantation. This study is intended to determine whether the combination of plerixafor with filgrastim (G-CSF)is better than filgrastim (G-CSF) alone in helping multiple myeloma patients collect at least 6 million stem cells in two or less apheresis sessions.
This study was previously posted by AnorMED, Inc. In November 2006, AnorMED, Inc. was acquired by Genzyme Corporation. Genzyme Corporation is the sponsor of the trial.

This phase II trial is studying how well suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid works in treating patients with progressive stage IV breast cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth
|
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the response rate in patients receiving SAHA for stage IV breast cancer.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Time to progression. II. Overall survival. III. Toxicity profile. IV. Assessment of potential biological correlates.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients receive oral suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid twice daily on days 1-14. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 8 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to determine if levetiracetam is effective in treating alcohol dependence in patients with anxiety symptoms. The researchers hypothesize that individuals are unable to reduce or discontinue alcohol use because of significant anxiety, mood, and sleep disturbance symptoms that accompany reduction in alcohol use.
|
Alcohol dependence is frequently associated with anxiety disorders. Treatment studies of individuals suffering from both alcohol dependence and anxiety have been limited. Anti-seizure medications have been used for the treatment of alcohol withdrawal for three decades. More recently, anti-seizure medications have been shown to reduce drinking and promote abstinence, and reduce drinking in abstinent alcoholics. Levetiracetam is a newer anti-seizure medication, with a structure different than that of other anti-seizure medications, that is safe and generally well tolerated. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved levetiracetam for use with other anti-seizure medications in the treatment of epilepsy in adults. The metabolism of levetiracetam is less complicated than older anti-seizure medications, which makes it easier to use and better tolerated, and it is not likely to interact with other medicines. Levetiracetam has been shown to prevent anxiety during sedative withdrawal, which is similar to alcohol withdrawal, in a laboratory study using mice. Levetiracetam also had anti-anxiety effects in laboratory study using mice. Given that other anti-seizure medications have been shown to be helpful in treating alcohol dependence, that levetiracetam is not likely to have interactions with other medications, and that in animals levetiracetam appeared to be helpful for treating a condition similar to alcohol dependence and anxiety, we believe it should be studied for the treatment of alcohol dependent patients with anxiety disorders.

The aim of the study described is to measure the degree with which zinc given as adjunct therapy to standard antibiotic treatment during childhood pneumonia reduces the risk of treatment failure and the duration of the illness.
|
Hypothesis: Zinc deficiency is a major public health problem in developing counties. Poor zinc status is associated with stunted growth and reduced resistance to infections. Several in vitro experiments and in vivo studies in animals and humans have demonstrated detrimental effects of zinc depletion on almost all facets of the immune system. The epithelial linings in the gut and in the respiratory tract are important for the resistance to infections and continuous cell division is required for proper function of these barriers. Zinc is crucial for cellular division and for the maintenance of organs with cells with a rapid turnover, including epithelial cells. Clinical trials in children in developing countries have demonstrated improved growth and reduced prevalence of diarrhea and respiratory tract infections following zinc supplementation. Furthermore, zinc has a well-documented therapeutic effect when given during acute or persistent diarrhea. The effect of zinc may be explained by correction of a deficiency state and/or by a pharmacological, as yet poorly described, action.
Due to the promising results from previous studies, WHO are now supporting large clinical trials in Nepal, India and Tanzania to assess whether routine zinc supplementation reduces mortality in early childhood. If the results of these trials show a mortality reduction, routine zinc supplementation or zinc dense foods may be promoted. However, while the first approach is logistically difficult and expensive, the second approach is difficult because zinc dense foods and foods with low phytic acid content are expensive and not readily available. Moreover, both approaches may be perceived to be incompatible with the current breast-feeding recommendations for the youngest children in most developing countries.
There is limited information on zinc as adjunct therapy for pneumonia. A recent hospital-based study in young children with severe pneumonia, showed that the zinc group had a faster recovery, resulting in a shortening of stay in hospital of one day. However, this study was small and no community based study has been conducted so far. Whether zinc has an effect during respiratory infections has to be assessed in studies with larger sample sizes in children with less severe disease and should be repeated in children with more severe disease. Short-term zinc administration during infections may become an alternative or an addition to long-term supplementation or promotion of zinc dense foods. Furthermore, therapeutic administration of zinc will not interfere with the current breast-feeding recommendations.
Hypothesis: Zinc as adjunct therapy for pneumonia may lead to faster recovery. Furthermore, long-term beneficial effects may include improved immuno-nutritional status measured by thymus size, less morbidity and improved growth.
Comparison: Duration of illness, risk of treatment failure, for those with severe pneumonia: length of hospital stay. Number of non-injury clinic visits and hospitalizations during the intervention with Zinc and an in a 6 month period after enrolment. Growth assessed by anthropometry and thymus size assessed by ultrasonography. Explore the efficacy of zinc in etiology-sub groups including those defined by nutritional status, inflammation, fever, gender, breastfeeding status and viral etiology.

The study is to examine the null hypothesis that risperidone and divalproex sodium are equally effective in treating/stabilizing pediatric bipolar disorder.
|
Pediatric Bipolar Disorder (PBD) severely impairs a child's emotional development, and is associated with alarming rates of suicide, school failure, aggression, risk taking behaviors and substance abuse (Geller et al, 1998; 2001; Carlson et al, 1998). At present, very little is known about the pathophysiology or optimal treatment of PBD. The long range goals of this proposal are threefold: to investigate a range of pharmacotherapeutic agents that are safe and efficacious for PBD, to use fMRI techniques to examine abnormalities in brain function in this disorder, as well as any change in brain function after treatment.
In contrast to the adult literature, we are aware of only two prospective studies assessing the efficacy of standard mood stabilizers in a pediatric sample. In one, lithium was found to be moderately effective in PBD with comorbid substance abuse (Geller et al, 1998). In the other, divalproex sodium, lithium and carbamazepine produced a maximum of 50% symptom reduction (Kowatch et al, 2000). Subsequently, Kafantaris et al (2001) observed a potentiation of lithium's antimanic effect when combined with risperidone. Further, a prospective, open trial of olanzapine for PBD reported a 70% symptom reduction (Frazier et al, 2001) with a retention rate of 96% compared to only 7% with classic mood stabilizers (Kowatch et al, 2000).
Thus, parallelling adult studies (Sachs et al, 2000), novel antipsychotics are a promising treatment in this population. Further, up to 60% of acute PBD episodes present with psychotic features (Geller et al, in press). Finally, the time to full effect with mood stabilizers is often 4 weeks in children (Kowatch et al, 2000; Geller et al, 1998; Kafantaris et al, 2001), whereas antipsychotics usually have a more rapid response onset (Pavuluri et al, in press). Given the potential efficacy of novel antipsychotics for PBD, the aim is to conduct a randomized trial comparing a novel antipsychotic to a standard mood stabilizer:

There are two purposes for this project. Study 1 is intended to study the safety and efficacy of Lamotrigine in stabilizing the mood in all phases of pediatric bipolar disorder (Phases: mixed, manic, hypomanic, or depressed episodes) in 8-17 year old children. These children and adolescents must be treatment resistant (who failed on two adequate trials of mood stabilizing medications) to qualify for this study. Study 2 is aimed at examining brain activity and/or dysfunction before lamotrigine treatment, and to look for any alteration after lamotrigine treatment. Brain systems associated with attention and emotional processing will targeted.
|
Procedure Study 1 This study is planned to be conducted over 18 months, with an average recruitment of 2 subjects per month. Each subject is involved in the study for 18 to 26 weeks. While the study medication is dosed over 8 weeks and treated with full dose over 6 weeks, withdrawal of medications that are on board prior to the study drug administration and drug free period post washout required additional time line that is up to 12 weeks over and above the 14 weeks of administering the study drug. Conversely, the range of time is necessary to account for factors such as the child's age, sex, weight, reactions to the medications and side effects. Based on these factors, the time it takes to titrate the medication dose to the optimal amount will vary. Maintaining this flexibility in the protocol is part of good clinical practice where medication is involved. Only children whose medication is not currently improving their symptoms will be recruited. Therefore no children who have been stabilized on a drug will be taken off of it. The initial 2 week screening period includes a diagnostic interview and collection of demographic information. Previous medication will be tapered slowly over 2-12-week period and is based on tolerability and need to keep subjects in drug free state prior to start of study medication. It is an open trial where subjects are aware of the type of medication and the strength (For example, one pill=25 mg strength) of the pill. Research assessment of mood symptoms and side effects will be carried out 5 times over the course of the active trial period. Blood will be collected 3 times: once the subject is washed-out (baseline), once optimal medication dose has been reached, and finally at the end of the 6-week period on full dose.
The dose of lamotrigine will be 12.5 mg per day beginning the first day. It is increased in 12.5 mg increments every week until it reaches 50 mg and 25 mg per week of increment thereafter until maximum dose of 150 mg in those below 50 kg and 200-400 mg depending on clinical response in those above 50 kg. Increasing the medication to final dose will take 8 weeks and the response on full and tolerable dose is further monitored for response over 6 weeks. Therefore, this is a 18-26 week trial (2 to 12 weeks=screening and wash out; 8 weeks=dosing; 6 weeks=acute trial period on full dose).
Study 2 involves adolescent subjects (\>10years of age) recruited from the Study 1 sample. This part of the study is a fMRI treatment study to examine how the brain functions before and after receiving lamotrigine medication for bipolar disorder. The goal of study 2 is to understand how and where lamotrigine works in the brain. In order to do this, we will view brain images in a fMRI scanner pre- and post-treatment. This will be done once before subjects begin taking lamotrigine (subjects who require a "wash-out" period, described in study 1, this will occur after the "wash-out.") The second scan will take place after the medication trial (after the 6-week active treatment period). While in the scanner, subjects will complete tasks related to thinking and emotion. Subjects will be shown pictures of faces with varying expressions including happy, neutral and angry and will be asked to identify the emotions of the faces, remember and identify previously seen faces, and determine the age group of various faces (i.e., above or below 30 years). Subjects will also complete tasks that involve processing words that express different emotions (e.g., happy, angry), and respond to different "go" and "no-go" images that flash on a screen. Brain activity will be recorded during these tasks. Each task will take around 5 minutes. Before the actual fMRI scan, subjects practice lying in a simulator, a machine that looks and sounds like a scanner.

This study will assess the effectiveness of Seromycin (D-cycloserine) in enhancing the positive effects of behavior therapy for people with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD).
|
We hope to enroll 50 subjects in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study of D-cycloserine augmentation of behavior therapy for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. All subjects will undergo a pre-treatment assessment, and then be randomly assigned to receive Seromycin (100 mg) or placebo one-hour before each of 10 therapy sessions. Subjects will then come in for a treatment planning session and the behavior therapy sessions delivered twice weekly for 5 weeks. Comprehensive assessments of obsessive-compulsive symptoms, mood state, and cognitions will be given at baseline, after 5 treatment sessions, after 10 sessions and 1 month and 6 months post-treatment.

To compare LDL reduction compared to baseline in patients using maximum tolerated HMG CoA Reductase inhibitor (statin) therapy with adjunctive therapy with ezetimibe, colestipol, or niacin. The patient's cardiovascular risks are assessed to determine if National Cholesterol Education Program's Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP ATP III) guidelines for low density lipoprotein (LDL) reduction were achieved between the three groups. Secondary measures examine the safety issues with liver function test (LFT) monitoring and rhabdomyolysis. High-density lipoproteins (HDL) elevations are monitored between the three groups to determine efficacy as a secondary outcome.
|
: Patients with hyperlipidemia who sign consent and who are currently at maximum tolerated dose of a statin and are not meeting NCEP ATPIII treatment goals for LDL cholesterol are enrolled in 12-week open label, prospective trial. Patients are randomized into one of three groups to receive ezetimibe, niacin, or colestipol in addition to current statin therapy. Patients are titrated as tolerated to therapeutic doses of study medications (ezetimibe 10mg/day, niacin 1500mg/day, and colestipol 20gm/day). At baseline, informed consent; a laboratory admission profile (Chem20); weight; height; blood pressure; concomitant medications; cholesterol medication history; and grapefruit juice consumption data are gathered. At weeks 6 and 12, patients have their cholesterol panels and liver function tests assessed. Patients are also interviewed regarding side effects (including rhabdomyolysis), tolerance, changes in concomitant medications, and grapefruit juice consumption, along with weight and blood pressure measurements.

This study will examine whether the combination of two anaesthetic medications, propofol and remifentanil, is suitable for short duration surgical procedures, providing a shorter recovery time and fewer side effects than either drug used alone.
|
Propofol is the primary medication used by anesthesiologists at HSC to provide sedation for lumbar puncture. Propofol provides amnesia, anxiolysis, and hypnosis, but because propofol has no analgestic properties patients often respond to the pain of LP needle insertion. To ensure patient immobility, the dose of propofol is often increased, resulting in a duration of action that is excessive for lumbar puncture. Remifentanil is an ultra-short acting opioid which can be used to provide analgesia and sedation for short painful procedures with minimal residual pain. However, when used as the sole agent, remifentanil is associated with a high incidence of respiratory depression and/or arterial oxygen desaturation and does not provide amnesia or anxiolysis. The combination of propofol and remifentanil may be particularly suitable for short duration procedures, providing a shorter recovery time and fewer side effects than either drug used alone.
The objective is to determine the minimum effective dose of remifentanil required to prevent movement for insertion of a lumbar puncture needle when co-administered with propofol. The results obtained from this study will be used in a future study of the recovery characteristics of propofol and remifentanil in children undergoing lumbar puncture.

This Phase 3 study is being conducted in North America, Argentina, and Brazil to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retigabine dosed at 1200 mg/day, in three equally divided doses, compared with placebo in patients with epilepsy who are receiving up to three established antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). The primary objective is to demonstrate a superior change in total partial seizure frequency for four weeks from baseline to the double-blind period. The proportion of responders (greater than or equal to 50% reduction in total partial seizure frequency for four weeks from baseline to the double-blind period) will also be evaluated.

The purpose of this study is to assess the usefulness of a medication (Levetiracetam) for people with body dysmorphic disorder.
|
Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), a perceived defect in appearance (e.g., a "large" nose or facial "scarring"), is a relatively common disorder that causes marked distress and impairment in functioning. Recent data suggests that adults with BDD may respond to serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRIs); however, response to SRIs is often only partial. About one third of patients do not respond to an SRI. Furthermore, patients may stop taking SRIs because of side effects (e.g., sexual side effects). For these reasons, additional monotherapy and SRI augmentation strategies are greatly needed.
Levetiracetam is primarily used as an antiseizure medication and has a wider safety margin than other antiepileptics. Preliminary scientific studies may suggest that it may be helpful for certain psychiatric symptoms and disorders. In the present study we propose to obtain pilot data on 1) levetiracetam monotherapy and 2) levetiracetam augmentation of SRIs in patients with BDD.

The dose will then be increased by 500 mg/day each week (given in BID dosing) to a maximum of 3,000 mg/day. The dose will be raised more slowly or the maximum dose will not be reached if response occurs at a lower dose or side effects are problematic. Subjects who are unable to tolerate at least 500 mg a day of levetiracetam will be withdrawn from the study.

Oral contraceptives are known to improve menstrual cycles and symptoms in PCOS, however may increase cholesterol. Metformin, a drug to improve insulin resistance, may benefit metabolic state. This study is to determine whether metformin added to oral contraceptive therapy in adolescent women with PCOS improves metabolic state.The study will also test a lifestyle improvement program to reduce weight.
|
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous condition characterized by chronic anovulation and androgen excess that occurs in 4-8% of unselected adult women. Although signs and symptoms of the disorder typically appear at the time of puberty, diagnosis is often delayed until adulthood. At least 50% of adult women with PCOS are obese, resulting in a more severe clinical picture. Obesity among adolescents has been increasing in recent years, with overrepresentation of females who show evidence of hyperandrogenism and irregular periods, suggesting an association of obesity and PCOS at an early age. Recent data, however, have drawn attention to the long-term risks of PCOS, including diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Insulin resistance plays a critical role in the pathophysiology of PCOS and is thought to be the metabolic abnormality most closely linked to an increased risk of diabetes and heart disease. Traditional treatments with oral contraceptives are associated with reduction in serum androgens and improvements in menstrual cycles in adolescents with PCOS, however these have not been well-studied in obese adolescents. Oral contraceptives may worsen the dyslipidemia seen in obese women with PCOS and do not address the insulin resistance. Metformin, an insulin sensitizing agent, has been shown to improve metabolic features of PCOS, but combination therapy with oral contraceptives has never been studied in the obese adolescent with PCOS.
The major hypothesis of this proposal is that metformin will improve the metabolic profile of obese adolescent girls with PCOS treated with oral contraceptives. Additionally, a secondary hypothesis will be that compliance with a concurrent lifestyle modification program with be associated with the most significant improvements.

The purpose of this study is to establish the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a multiple dose of the antimalarial drug artesunate.
|
This study was a Phase 1b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial using multiple ascending doses of intravenous artensunate (AS) to determine it's safety, tolerability, and PK in healthy subjects. Subjects were screened within 21 days of dosing. At the screening visit, subject underwent baseline assessments: vital signs were recorded; a physical examination, urinalysis, urine drug screen, and urine pregnancy test were performed; a complete blood cell count (CBC) with differential and indices, reticulocyte count, coagulation markers, and blood chemistry assessments were performed and medical and medication history was collected. Eligible subjects were scheduled for a 6-hour pre-dose electrocardiogram (ECG) and vital sign assessment with measurements taken at approx. the same times as Day 1 (dosing day). On Day 0, subjects were admitted to the clinical pharmacology unit to begin the inpatient phase of the study. Subjects had a brief physical examination and all procedures for the inpatient stay were reviewed. On Day 1, pre-dose vital signs and ECG were performed. Subjects then received study drug or placebo by IV bolus infusion. Subjects were closely monitored by evaluating hemodynamic measurements, periodic ECGs, and assessment of spontaneously reported AEs. Blood was drawn for blood count and chemistry analysis 6h and 24h after each dose. PK blood samples were drawn pre-dose and approx. 5min, 20min, 40min, 1h, 2h, 4h, 6h, and 24h after each dose. On Days 2 and 3 subjects received their second and third doses, respectively, of study drug or placebo with the same monitoring and laboratory measurements as for the first dose. Subjects were discharged 24 hours after the 3rd dose of drug or placebo and were followed as outpatients on Days 7, 10, and 15.

The purpose of the study is:
* To compare the effectiveness and safety of weekend atropine augmented with a plano lens for the sound eye versus weekend atropine alone for moderate amblyopia (20/40 to 20/100) in children 3 to less than 7 years old.
* To provide data on the response of severe amblyopia (20/125 to 20/400) to atropine treatment with and without a plano lens.
|
Atropine is an effective treatment of moderate amblyopia. Reduction of the plus sphere for the sound eye is an accepted method of enhancing and possibly accelerating the treatment effect. Demonstrating additional value of the plano lens in terms of speed of improvement will shorten the treatment period, possibly improving child and parental compliance, leading to improved overall outcomes for patients with amblyopia. If the plano lens leads to greater improvement, then there will be less permanent visual impairment in patients with a history of amblyopia. It also is important to determine if the use of a plano lens in conjunction with atropine has a deleterious effect on the sound eye, and if yes, how often this occurs.
Little is known about the pharmacologic treatment of severe amblyopia. This study will provide important prospectively determined outcome data at little additional expense.
In a study conducted by the Pediatric Eye Disease Investigator Group, A Randomized Trial Comparing Daily Atropine Versus Weekend Atropine for Moderate Amblyopia, the use of weekend atropine for moderate amblyopia was as effective as daily treatment. Intermittent atropine use (such as using it only on the weekends) has the theoretical potential benefit of the sound eye having some time each week during which cycloplegia is only partial. It is possible that allowing some loss of the cycloplegic effect over the course of each week may be safer for the sound eye.
The study has been designed as a simple trial that, other than the type of amblyopia therapy being determined through the randomization process, approximates standard clinical practice. The two treatment regimes for the 18 week primary treatment period are: 1) Atropine 1% once each weekend day in the sound eye and 2) Atropine 1% once each weekend day in the sound eye plus a plano lens for the sound eye.

The purpose of this study is:
* To compare the effectiveness of weekend atropine plus near activities and daily patching plus near activities for moderate amblyopia (20/40 to 20/100) and severe amblyopia (20/125 to 20/400) in improving vision in the amblyopic eye of 7 to \<13 year olds.
* To determine the maximum improvement in vision of the amblyopic eye with each treatment.
* To determine whether amblyopia is associated with structural abnormalities of optic nerve fiber layer.

Although there is consensus that amblyopia can be treated effectively in young children, many eye care practitioners believe that treatment beyond a certain age is ineffective. Some clinicians have believed that a treatment response is unlikely after the age of 6 or 7 years, while others have considered age 9 or 10 years to be the upper age limit for successful treatment. The American Academy of Ophthalmology Preferred Practice Pattern for amblyopia recommends treatment up to age 10 years. The opinion that amblyopia treatment is ineffective in older children may have arisen because the age of 6 to 7 years is thought to be the end of the "critical period" for visual development in humans. This belief, however, was not based on adequate prospectively-collected data.
To address this issue of the response of amblyopia to treatment in children 7 years and older, the Pediatric Eye Disease Investigator Group (PEDIG) conducted a randomized trial of 507 patients (aged 7 to \<18 years) with amblyopic eye visual acuity ranging from 20/40 to 20/400. Patients were provided with optimal optical correction and then randomized to a Treatment Group (2 to 6 hours per day of prescribed patching of the sound eye combined with near visual activities for all patients plus atropine one drop per day in the sound eye for 7 to \<13 year olds) or an Optical Correction Group (optical correction alone). Patients whose amblyopic eye acuity improved 10 or more letters (2 lines) by 24 weeks were considered responders. In the 7 to \<13 year olds (N=404), 53% of the Treatment Group were responders compared with 25% of the Optical Correction Group (P\<0.001). In the 13 to \<18 year olds (N=103), the responder rates were 25% and 23% respectively overall (adjusted P=0.22), but 47% and 20% respectively among patients not previously treated with patching and/or atropine for amblyopia (adjusted P=0.03). Most patients, including responders, were left with a residual visual acuity deficit.
The use of multiple modalities (patching, atropine, near visual activities) in the treatment regimen for the 7 to \<13 year olds in this trial (ATS3) was an effort to maximize the therapeutic response. Patients age 13 years and older were prescribed patching but not atropine because of concern that the continual optical blur from the atropine could have a deleterious effect on their ability to drive and perform other activities. Prescribed patching was 2 to 6 hours a day to limit patch wear to non-school hours and because our prior studies of 3 to \<7 year olds demonstrated that as little as two hours of patching a day (when combined with near visual activities) is as effective as a greater number of hours. Instructing patients to perform at least one hour of near activities while wearing the patch was based on the unproven clinical opinion that near activities can augment the effect of the occlusion therapy. A PEDIG pilot study suggested that near activities are beneficial and this question of benefit of near activities is currently being studied in another randomized clinical trial. Atropine placed in the sound eye once a day and two days a week has been demonstrated in younger children to be beneficial to the acuity of the amblyopic eye, presumably due to its cycloplegic effect of blurring vision in the sound eye especially at near fixation. In a study comparing daily and weekend atropine, daily atropine was not found to be superior.
The unanswered question from this completed clinical trial is whether prescribing patching or atropine alone could have produced a response similar to the combination therapy, or whether in this age group, one treatment is better than the other. A poll of PEDIG investigators at an investigator meeting on January 15, 2005 indicated that very few are following the treatment regimen used in the prior study (ATS3); rather, most are prescribing monotherapy-either patching or atropine-as the initial treatment for amblyopia in the 7 to \<13 year age range. Thus, a trial comparing atropine and patching as amblyopia treatments in 7 to \<13 year olds is needed.
The study has been designed as a simple trial that, other than the type of amblyopia therapy being determined through the randomization process, approximates standard clinical practice. The two treatment regimes are: 1) Atropine 1% once each weekend day in the sound eye plus near activities for at least one hour every day without the aid of reading glasses (with increase to daily atropine at 5 weeks if acuity not improved by at least 5 letters) and 2) Patching 2 hours per day plus near activities for one hour while patching (with increase to 4 hours per day for moderate amblyopes and \> 4 hours per day for severe amblyopes at 5 weeks if acuity not improved by at least 5 letters).
Optional Ancillary Study As part of the optic nerve imaging ancillary study, retinal nerve fiber layer imaging using optical coherence tomography will be performed on some patients. This will be optional for patients at participating sites. The procedure is not part of standard care. The subject's pupils will need to be dilated, if not already dilated as part of the exam. Testing of both eyes can be completed in about 15 minutes.

There is a bimodal distribution to the new onset seizures with one peak occurring in the very young and the second peak occurring in persons over age 65 years. The presentation of seizures in the elderly may vary from that of younger patients and the diagnosis may be confused with other conditions such as transient ischemic attacks. However, the consequences of epilepsy in the elderly can be severe leading to impaired cognition, increased falls, and a decreased quality of life. The treatment of epilepsy may be complicated by pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic changes occurring in the elderly.

However, the consequences of epilepsy in the elderly can be severe leading to impaired cognition, increased falls, and a decreased quality of life. The treatment of epilepsy may be complicated by pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic changes occurring in the elderly.
Three Veterans Cooperative trials evaluating antiepileptic drug (AED) therapy in the elderly demonstrated that the ability to tolerate the AED is a more determining factor for long term success than the ability to suppress seizure activity. In general, elderly patients appear more intolerable to medications. This may stem from co-morbid conditions, concurrent medications, pharmacokinetic changes, and/or pharmacodynamic changes. Therefore, it is important to study the efficacy and tolerability of AEDs in the elderly.
Valproic acid has been available for the treatment of partial and generalized seizures since 1978. Sodium divalproex is metabolized in the gut to valproic acid. Depakote and Depakote-ER (extended release)are among the dosage forms of sodium divalproex. Depakote is an enteric coated tablet that is designed to dissolve in the more alkaline milieu of the small intestine rather than the more acidic milieu of the stomach. This helps the drug to bypass the stomach and reduces gastrointestinal distress. Once the enteric coating dissolves, the sodium divalproex is metabolized to valproic acid and rapidly absorbed. Depakote is administered twice a day. Depakote-ER is a controlled release drug delivery system designed to release drug over a 22 hour period which allows for once a day dosing. The efficacy and tolerability of Depakote-ER has not been described in elderly patients with epilepsy.

Memantine is a therapeutic agent that represents a unique class of Alzheimer's disease (AD) treatment options. A once daily (QD) dosing regimen in an AD population would simplify administration for the caregiver. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of modified release memantine taken once daily in outpatients with moderate-to-severe AD on a concurrent AChEI.

Oxaliplatin will be used instead of cisplatin in well-known salvage regimen of etoposide, methylprednisolone, cytarabine and cisplatin (ESHAP). Clinical efficacy and toxicity of this ESHAOX salvage regimen will be evaluated in refractory or relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients.
|
Patients with aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) are known to have a malignancy considered curable in many cases. However, diagnosis of refractory or relapsed disease is devastating and the treatment is difficult because regimens of chemotherapy used as salvage therapy are available only in limited numbers. ESHAP, consisting of etoposide, methylprednisolone, high-dose cytarabine and cisplatin, is one of commonly used salvage regimen, and showed its efficacy and feasibility. But it often requires discontinuation of the treatment due to its myelosuppression, neuropathy and renal toxicity, which can also impede further treatment. Oxaliplatin, a platinum coordination complex with an oxalato-ligand as the leaving group and a 1,2-diaminocyclohexane carrier, possesses higher cytotoxic potency on molar basis than cisplatin and carboplatin, and was reported to be active in patients with NHL as a single agent. In addition, the substitution of cisplatin by oxaliplatin in the DHAP regimen, another commonly used one in relapsed or refractory NHL, showed meaningful anti-tumor activity with favorable toxicity profile. Based on preclinical and clinical findings, we will conduct a multi-center phase II study of ESHAOX, which substitutes oxaliplatin with cisplatin in the ESHAP regimen, to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity profile in patients with recurrent or refractory NHL.

The standard treatment for PTCL is CHOP (cyclophosphamide (C), adriamycin (H), vincristine (O), and prednisone (P)) chemotherapy. This study is attempting to determine whether adding other treatments to CHOP therapy will improve the chance of the disease going into remission or staying in remission. Because other drugs for T-cell lymphoma have not yet been given with CHOP, this study is looking at combining CHOP with ONTAK. ONTAK has been FDA approved for treatment of Cutaneous T cell Lymphoma and works by specifically binding to a protein on the surface of the tumor cells and killing the cell without causing damage to other types of cells in the body. Studies have shown that ONTAK has helped patients with PTCL who have failed chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of clonidine and adenosine on nerve pain.
|
This study is part of a pain center grant that focuses on how pain, especially chronic neuropathic pain, alters the response to traditional and non-traditional analgesics (pain medications).
Clonidine-a drug commonly used to treat high blood pressure-has been shown to effectively treat neuropathic pain, is FDA-approved for administration via epidural (an injection given in the lower back), and is the third most commonly prescribed drug for chronic intrathecal (an injection into the cerebrospinal fluid) use in people with chronic pain.
Adenosine-a drug commonly administered intravenously (into a vein) to treat certain types of abnormal heart rhythms-has been found to reduce areas of allodynia (pain caused by a stimulus that does not normally cause pain) after intrathecal, but not intravenous administration in people with neuropathic pain.
Intrathecal clonidine relieves pain by actions on a2-adrenoceptors in the spinal cord, whereas adenosine relieves pain by actions on A1 adenosine receptors. Researchers believe that intrathecal adenosine and clonidine may prove to be excellent painkillers for nerve pain. Therefore, the goal of this study is to determine the effects of clonidine and adenosine on nerve pain.
After initial screening, baseline measurements, and training to learn to estimate pain accurately using thermal heat testing, a sample of spinal fluid will be taken from each participant. Participants then will be randomly chosen to receive either clonidine, adenosine, or placebo. After receiving the study medication, participants will be monitored, with their vital signs checked at 30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 minutes.
Duration of the study for participants is 2 weeks, and includes two visits to the research center, each lasting approximately 6 hours.

This is a Phase 4 randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, single-center, double-blind study to evaluate the effects of mometasone furoate nasal spray (MFNS) in subjects with Sleep-disordered Breathing (SDB) associated with perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR) using Peak Nasal Inspiratory Flow (PNIF), Embletta device home-monitored cardiopulmonary evaluations, and rhinitis evaluations and questionnaires. Approximately 30 subjects 18 to 60 years of age with symptomatic PAR (with or without SAR) will be selected and randomized at one study site. The anticipated duration of subject participation in the study is approximately 39 days. Subjects who qualify at the Screening Visit will complete a 10-14 day run-in/screening period. Following the run-in period, subjects who meet the qualifications at the Baseline Visit will be treated with study medication for 4 weeks.

This will be a 12-week, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and PK of oral administration of PG-760564 in adult patients with active RA receiving treatment with MTX. Two oral doses of PG-760564 will be evaluated: 25 mg BID and 100 mg BID. The study will consist of a screening visit followed by a washout period for all disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and anti-cytokine therapies except MTX. After the washout period, patients determined to be eligible will be randomized to receive either 25 mg BID or 100 mg BID of oral PG-760564, or placebo for 12 weeks. There will be 6 treatment visits and a follow-up visit 4 weeks after the last treatment visit. The primary efficacy endpoint will be the proportion of patients meeting the ACR 20 response criteria after 12 weeks of treatment.

The study will be conducted in North America and Europe at approximately 50 to 60 sites. Approximately 270 patients will be randomized, of which 189 are expected to complete the study.
The study will consist of a screening visit followed by a washout period for all disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and anti-cytokine therapies except MTX. The washout period will be 4 weeks for sulfasalazine, hydroxychloroquine, azathioprine, D-penicillamine, etanercept, and anakinra, 8 weeks for gold, infliximab, and adalimumab, and 12 weeks for abatacept.
After the washout period, the patients determined to be eligible will be randomized to receive either 25 mg BID or 100 mg BID of oral PG-760564, or placebo for 12 weeks. There will be 6 treatment visits (Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12) and a follow-up visit 4 weeks after the last treatment visit (Week 16). Patients will not initiate new therapies until after the 4-week follow-up is completed. Liver function tests will be evaluated at every visit.
The primary efficacy endpoint will be the proportion of patients meeting the ACR 20 response criteria after 12 weeks of treatment.

The purpose of this 8-week study is to compare the effects of switching from therapy with epoprostenol or Flolan to IV Remodulin. This study will also assess the effect that changing to Remodulin will have on patient satisfaction with their treatment and impact on quality of life.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), which is defined as an elevation in pulmonary arterial pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance, is a severe hemodynamic abnormality common to a variety of diseases and syndromes. Elevation in pulmonary arterial pressure causes an increase in right ventricular afterload, impairing right ventricular function and ultimately leading to inactivity and death. The goal of PAH treatment is to lengthen survival time, to ameliorate symptoms of PAH and to improve health related quality of life (HRQOL).
Remodulin® (treprostinil sodium), a stable analogue of prostacyclin, possesses potent pulmonary and systemic vasodilatory and platelet anti-aggregatory actions in vitro and in vivo. Recently, Remodulin received FDA approval for intravenous therapy based upon bioequivalence of the IV and SC routes of administration. Remodulin is more chemically stable than epoprostenol and may offer potential safety and convenience advantages compared to intravenous epoprostenol that may impact Health Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) and/or patient satisfaction. Unlike epoprostenol, Remodulin does not need to be mixed daily and is stable at room temperature eliminating the need for ice packs. Furthermore, since Remodulin remains in the body longer than epoprostenol (4 hrs instead of less than 5 minutes) there is less risk of cardiovascular collapse from a sudden interruption of infusion, such as a line clog. In an open-label study in Europe, patients who were using a type of portable medication pump called the CADD Legacy pump were rapidly switched from Flolan to Remodulin with no serious side effects. This study will examine effects of switching from therapy with epoprostenol or Flolan to IV Remodulin and compare changes in HRQOL and treatment satisfaction before and after rapid switch from epoprostenol to Remodulin in patients with pulmonary hypertension using the CADD legacy pump.
Participation in this study will last approximately 10 weeks. Study procedures include routine blood tests, medical history, physical exams, disease evaluation, exercise tests and patient questionnaires. Participants will have 4 visits during the study and will spend at least 1 night in the hospital.

The safety profile of the initial tobramycin treatment was assessed during the first 3 months of the study and patients were followed until the end of the study, month 27.
|
This was a multi-center, open-label, two-arm, randomized study. All patients diagnosed with CF and who fulfilled the criteria for early infection with P. aeruginosa initially received tobramycin 300 mg twice a day for 28 days. At the end of the 28-day treatment period, patients who met the inclusion criteria and none of the additional exclusion criteria were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either receive an additional 28 days of treatment with tobramycin 300 mg twice a day (56-day group) or to stop study medication (28-day group).
All randomized patients had regular study visits until a positive P. aeruginosa sample was obtained. Once P. aeruginosa had recurred, the patient entered a follow-up phase where minimal information was collected for 27 months. During the follow-up phase, patients were treated according to their physicians' discretion.
Patients who started treatment with tobramycin but were not randomized (i.e. due to a positive antibody test) and followed up during routine clinic visits. They were allowed to continue their 28-day treatment period and afterwards be treated according to their physicians' discretion.

Participants with Hodgkin's Disease (HD) who have been treated with cyto-reductive chemotherapy, who are to undergo autologous stem cell transplantation, and who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria are eligible to enter this efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) study. The only changes to the standard of care is the addition of plerixafor to a granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilization regimen on each day prior to apheresis. The purpose of this protocol is to determine the proportion of participants who reach a target number of CD34+ stem cells (≥5\*10\^6 cells/kg) after hematopoietic stem cell mobilization with G-CSF and plerixafor. Safety and PK parameters are also collected.

The only changes to the standard of care is the addition of plerixafor to a G-CSF mobilization regimen on the day prior to apheresis and the collection of blood samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis and pharmacodynamics (PD) analysis by CD34+ fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis. Blood samples for PK and CD34+ FACS analyses will be obtained prior to and after the first dose of plerixafor. Participants will undergo mobilization with G-CSF (10 µg/kg daily) and will receive plerixafor (240 µg/kg) on each day prior to apheresis. Participants will be apheresed for up to 5 consecutive days in order to collect the target number of CD34+ stem cells, (≥5\*10\^6 cells/kg). After apheresis, all participants will be treated with high dose chemotherapy in preparation for transplantation. Participants will be transplanted with cells obtained from the G-CSF plus plerixafor mobilization regimen. In the event that a sufficient number of cells for transplantation are not obtained from the collection, cells may be retained and pooled for transplantation at the investigator's discretion.
The primary endpoint is the proportion of HD participants who collect ≥5\*10\^6 CD34+ cells/kg with this mobilization regimen. The secondary endpoints include the safety of this mobilization regimen, the proportion of participants who collect ≥2\*10\^6 CD34+ cells/kg, the change in CD34+ cells circulating in the peripheral blood after a dose of plerixafor, and the number of days of apheresis required to obtain ≥5\*10\^6 CD34+ cells/kg. In addition, success of the transplantation will be evaluated by measuring the time to engraftment of PMNs and PLTs. Participants will be followed for 12 months to assess transplant durability.

This study uses the cholesterol lowering drug atorvastatin, also known as lipitor, to show reduction of avascular necrosis in steroid treated lupus patients. Avascular necrosis is a disease resulting from the loss of blood supply to the bones which can cause the bone to collapse. The collapse of bone may require a surgical replacement of the joint and can be disabling for life. Avascular necrosis is presently not preventable but research has shown that lipid lowering drugs such as lipitor can reduce or prevent avascular necrosis in animals. We therefore hypothesize that lipitor will reduce the incidence of avascular necrosis in lupus patients taking high dose steroids.
|
If you have started on prednisone 30mg or greater and expect to be on it for greater than two weeks you may be a candidate for the study. Also, you would need to be enrolled in the study within three days of starting prednisone. If you are eligible you will receive lipitor 40mg per day or pills which look exactly like lipitor but do not contain any medication (called placebo). During the time of the study, you will not know if you are taking lipitor or the placebo. The period of time that you will receive lipitor or placebo is 9 months and you must be willing to return for 5 follow up visits during this time which include blood tests, physical exams and 3 MRI studies of the hips, knees and ankles.

Primary Objectives:
1. To evaluate the efficacy of Glucarpidase (Voraxaze) in increasing the rate of methotrexate (MTX) clearance following high dose MTX treatment in patients with a delayed MTX clearance.
2. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of Glucarpidase following high dose MTX treatment in patients with a delayed MTX clearance.
3. To evaluate the safety profile of Glucarpidase following high dose MTX treatment in patients with a delayed MTX clearance.
Secondary Objectives:
1. To evaluate the effect of Glucarpidase on the incidence of neutropenic fever and use of intravenous (IV) antibiotics.
2. To evaluate the effect of Glucarpidase on the length of hospitalization.
3. To evaluate the effect of Glucarpidase on renal function.
4. To evaluate the effect of Glucarpidase on Quality of Life (QOL).
5. To evaluate the anti-glucarpidase antibody response.
6. To evaluate the efficacy of Glucarpidase following its use in repeated cycles of high dose MTX treatment.
|
Researchers want to learn how glucarpidase may impact patients' length of stay in the hospital, kidney function, and quality of life. Also, researchers want to learn if glucarpidase may decrease the incidence of neutropenic fever, which may decrease the use of antibiotics by vein to treat this kind of fever.
MTX is a high-dose chemotherapy drug that reduces the supply of an important vitamin (folate) required for the growth of cancer cells. In patients with delayed clearance of MTX from the body, there is a risk of more frequent or severe side effects from the drug.
Glucarpidase is a drug that breaks down MTX in the blood, causing the drug to be less toxic and decreasing levels of the drug in the blood.
Before you can start treatment on this study, you will have "screening tests." These tests will help the doctor decide if you are eligible to take part in this study. Your complete medical history will be recorded. You will have a physical exam, including measurement of your vital signs (temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure). You will have blood drawn (about 3 teaspoons) for routine tests. You will also have blood drawn (about 1 teaspoon), right before treatment starts, 28 days after the first dose of study drug in each cycle, and at the end of the study to see if you have any antibodies (proteins in the body that help fight infections and foreign substances in the body) to the study drug. Women who are able to have children must have a negative blood pregnancy test. The blood used for the pregnancy test will come from the sample taken for routine tests. (There is no additional blood draw for the pregnancy test).
You may be given either glucarpidase or placebo (a drug that looks like glucarpidase but is not active). Neither you nor the study doctor will know if you have been given glucarpidase or placebo. This is called the blinded phase of this study. Before you can begin on this study, if you are already suffering from side effects (because of difficulty with MTX clearance), such as kidney toxicity, severe mucositis (redness and painful ulcers in the mouth), and/or you have extremely high MTX levels, you will not be randomized and will receive glucarpidase, not placebo. If this is the case, your doctor will know that you have been given glucarpidase.
If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study, you will be assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups, which will be based on the dose of MTX you received. You will then be randomly assigned (as in the toss of a coin) to one of two treatment groups. Participants in one group will receive glucarpidase. Participants in the other group will receive placebo. There is a higher chance that you may receive glucarpidase than placebo because for every patient that receives placebo, 2 patients will receive glucarpidase. The glucarpidase or placebo dose that you may receive will be given by vein within 12 hours after you have been found eligible to participate in this study. Glucarpidase or placebo will be given during the first study cycle (after MTX treatment is completed, if after 72 hours your MTX levels are found to be high). You may receive additional doses of glucarpidase (depending upon the level of MTX in your blood) up to a maximum of 2 doses. If this is the case, the second dose will be given at least 24 hours after the first dose you received.
Regardless of the treatment group that you are assigned to, you will continue to receive standard treatment (fluids by vein with sodium acetate or sodium bicarbonate and leucovorin) for high MTX levels. In future cycles of MTX, you may receive glucarpidase, if you continue to experience a delay of MTX clearing from your body. The glucarpidase dose may be repeated a maximum of 2 times in a given cycle of chemotherapy. The length of a cycle of chemotherapy will vary, depending on the dose of MTX and the regimen the patient is receiving. One cycle of treatment with glucarpidase is at least 24 hours apart.
You will be asked to fill out several questionnaires regarding your quality of life. These questionnaires will ask about your level of pain, fatigue, nausea, sleep disturbances, etc. They will be given during the first study cycle only (before the study drug is given and daily during the first study cycle). They will take about 5 minutes to complete each time.
You will also have blood drawn (about 3 teaspoons each), at different times, so that study doctors can monitor your kidney function and liver function, depending on your clinical condition. These blood samples will be drawn at least twice a week while you are on this study. You will again have blood drawn for the presence of antibodies 14 days after treatment with glucarpidase, before every cycle of MTX treatment, and at the end of this study.
You will be taken off this study if your disease gets worse, you experience intolerable side effects, or you completed planned therapy (a maximum of 6 cycles of study drug). At the end of this study, your complete medical history will again be recorded. You will have a physical exam, including measurement of your vital signs. You will also have blood drawn (about 1 teaspoon) for routine tests.
This is an investigational study. Glucarpidase is not FDA approved or commercially available. The M. D. Anderson Institutional Review Board (IRB) has authorized the use of glucarpidase for research only. The IRB is a committee made up of doctors, researchers, and members of the community. The IRB is responsible for protecting the participants involved in research studies and making sure all research is done in a safe and ethical manner. Glucarpidase and placebo will be provided free of charge during this study. Up to 46 patients will take part in this study. All patients will be enrolled at M. D. Anderson.

To evaluate the response rate (Complete Response \[CR\] and Partial Response \[PR\]) to dasatinib in patients with relapsed, refractory or plateau phase multiple myeloma whose serum paraprotein levels are \>0.5g/dL or urine paraprotein levels are \>1.0g/24 hours.
|
Studies have confirmed the ability of dasatinib to inhibit numerous kinases (76 of 148 kinases tested in one series).13 Overexpression or dysregulation of a number of kinases have been implicated in the pathophysiology of MM and could serve as potential targets for inhibition by dasatinib.
Fibroblast growth factor 3 (FGFR3), which is not normally expressed in plasma cells, is aberrantly expressed in 15 % of multiple myeloma patients. Its expression results from the translocation t4;14.14 Dasatinib weakly inhibits FGFR3.13
Another target for inhibition in multiple myeloma is the epidermal growth factor receptor family, particularly ErbB4. In vitro, ErbB4 was expressed in 4 of 9 myeloma cell lines, and a panErbB inhibitor induces apoptosis in myeloma cell lines.15 Dasatinib has been shown to have moderate affinity for ErbB4.13
Members of the src family of protein-tyrosine kinases are also potential targets for therapy in multiple myeloma. Hematopoietic cell kinase (Hck) is a src family member whose expression is restricted to hematopoietic cells of the myeloid and B-lymphoid lineages. Hck mediates IL-6 induced proliferative signals, which are potent growth and survival factors in multiple myeloma.16 Lyn and Fyn are two additional src family protein-tyrosine kinases that may serve as targets for therapy in myeloma. Lyn is strongly expressed in myeloma cell lines, while Fyn expression is variable. Activation of Lyn and Fyn appears requisite to IL-6-induced proliferation.17 Selective inhibition of Lyn in vitro suppresses IL-6 induced proliferation.18 Dasatinib has high affinity for both Fyn and Lyn, and inhibition may reduce IL-6 induced proliferation.13
The receptor tyrosine kinase c-kit is overexpressed in one-third of cases of multiple myeloma. 19 Inhibition of c-kit with imatinib results in inhibition of proliferation in vitro.20 Unfortunately, in a phase II clinical study of imatinib in relapsed/refractory myeloma, there were no responses.21 However, dasatinib binds c-kit with greater avidity than does imatinib.13
Myeloma cells are heterogeneous in their biological characteristics, such as their proliferative response to IL-6, as well as their immunophenotypes, including CD45 expression. The promiscuous nature of kinase inhibition by dasatinib may tolerate small changes in the kinase and remain able to inhibit mutant kinases.
In addition to potential antimyeloma effects of dasatinib, there are potentially additional benefits. Src plays an essential role in osteoclast function and bone resorption.22 As a Src inhibitor, dasatinib inhibits bone resorption in vitro. 11 Src inhibition by dasatinib in patients with multiple myeloma could produce beneficial effects on bone density.
We propose a single-arm, phase II, open-label study of dasatinib in patients with relapsed or plateau-phase multiple myeloma.

The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and effectiveness of replacing vincristine with a drug called bortezomib (also known as "Velcade"or PS341) in the standard therapy vincristine, doxorubicin (not limited to, but formerly referred to under the tradename Adriamycin) and dexamethasone (VAD) in patients with multiple myeloma. Multiple Myeloma is the second most common cancer of the blood. Bortezomib is the first approved cancer treatment in a new class of medicines called proteasome inhibitors. It disrupts the cell cycle of the cell, affecting numerous biologic pathways, including those related to growth and survival of cancer cells. The treatment will be used as second line treatment, which means either the disease has returned after a period of improvement (relapse) or the disease did not respond to the initial treatment (refractory). Patients will receive either bortezomib (PS341), doxorubicin (Adriamycin) and dexamethasone (PAD) or the VAD standard therapy.
|
Bortezomib, has been approved for use in patients with multiple myeloma, who have already received at least one prior treatment and whose disease is worsening on their last treatment and who have already undergone or are unsuitable for bone marrow transplantation. Bortezomib has significant activity in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma, its efficacy is increased with the addition of dexamethasone and it demonstrates synergy with doxorubicin. The VAD combination has been widely used in multiple myeloma and has demonstrated to be effective in relapsed patients. Based on previous trial results, it is hoped that bortezomib, in replacing vincristine in the VAD standard therapy, can improve the response to treatment of patients with multiple myeloma, with manageable side effects. This is an international, multicentre, randomised, open-label, parallel group study. About 212 patients will take part in the study. Patients will be treated with either bortezomib (PS-341), Adriamycin and Dexamethasone (PAD) or Vincristine, Adriamycin and Dexamethasone (VAD). There will be an initial 14 day screening period to evaluate if the patient is suitable for the study. After screening, eligible patients will be randomised to receive either PAD or VAD. Patients will receive therapy for up to 8 treatment cycles of 28 days each. After the treatment period, there will be a long-term follow-up period with monthly visits until disease progression or relapse. Thereafter follow-up will be continued by at least a phone call every other month. This long-term follow-up period will be performed for all patients until the last patient was treated and followed up for 1 year. Response to treatment will be assessed according to the European group for blood and marrow transplant criteria (EBMT). Disease burden will be monitored by measuring M-protein concentration in serum and in urine every 4 weeks until disease progression or relapse. Thereafter follow-up for survival will be continued every other month by at least a phone call. Safety will be assessed by monitoring of adverse events (AEs), vital signs, physical examination and clinical laboratory tests. Treatment with PAD or VAD will be for up to 8 cycles of 28 days each. Treatment beyond 6 cycles will be discussed on individual basis. Proposed dosages are: bortezomib 1.3 mg/m² intravenous (IV) bolus on Days 1, 4, 8, and 11; vincristine 0.4mg IV push on Days 1 to 4; doxorubicin 9mg/m² IV push on Days 1 to 4; dexamethasone in 1st cycle 40 mg daily on Days 1 to 4, 9 to 12 and 17 to 20, orally (or equivalent parenteral dose) and on subsequent cycles as 40 mg daily on Days 1 to 4 and 17 to 20 only.

This 2 arm study will compare the efficacy of monthly Mircera and epoetin alfa in peritoneal dialysis patients who self-inject at home or receive in-centre injections. The safety of subcutaneous (sc) Mircera and injection site reactions and patient satisfaction will also be assessed. Eligible patients will be randomized either to receive monthly sc injections of Mircera (and will be switched from sc epoetin alfa) at a starting dose of 120-360 micrograms, or to remain on standard of care sc epoetin alfa. Dose adjustments will be permitted to reach/maintain a hemoglobin level of 10-12g/dL. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 380 individuals.

arm 1: Eligible participants will be administered RO0503821 (methoxy polyethylene glycol-epoetin beta \[Mircera\]) subcutaneously (SC) every month for eight months (6 months of titration period \[TP\] and two months of evaluation period \[EP\] and 15-days following the final study visit (9 months post randomization). The first dose of Mircera (120, 200, or 360 mcg) will be based upon the dose of epoetin alfa received 1 to 2 weeks prior to administration of study drug, while subsequent doses will be adjusted to maintain haemoglobin (Hb) concentrations within target of \>=10.0 gram per decilitre (g/dL) and \<=12.0 g/dL. Participants who self-administered/visited to clinics for erythropoiesis stimulating agent (ESA) dosing prior to randomization will continue to do so. arm 2: Eligible participants will be administered epoetin alfa SC as per the standard of care for eight months (TP and EP), and will be followed-up for 15 days following the final study visit. Participants who self-administered/visited to clinics for ESA dosing prior to randomization will continue to do so.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of enteral iron supplementation for improving anemia, decreasing the risk of blood transfusion, and decreasing mortality in patients who are hospitalized in the intensive care unit. This study will also address any relationship between enteral iron supplementation and risk of infection.
|
Critical illness is characterized by the anemia of inflammation, which is partially caused by sequestration of iron from bone marrow sites of erythropoiesis into storage within the reticuloendothelial system as ferritin. Also the majority of critically ill patients are hypoferremia, the efficacy of iron supplementation remains unknown. Furthermore, several retrospective studies have found an association between iron overload and infection. However, the relative risk/benefit profile of enteral iron supplementation with respect to infection has not been studied. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of enteral iron supplementation in critically ill patients. The hypothesis is that enteral iron supplementation will result in both an improved hematocrit and a decreased need for blood transfusion, without increasing the risk of infection.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of lacosamide (LCM) 400mg/day in treating the signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis of the knee.
|
LCM is an investigational drug that is being studied as a treatment in male and female patients who are diagnosed with osteoarthritis of the knee and require therapeutic doses of NSAIDs, COX-2 NSAIDs and/or paracetamol. This trial will be conducted exclusively in Europe.
The study has an adaptive 3-stage group sequential design.
The trial will last a total of 17 weeks. There will be a 2 week period to wean off current medication, followed by a 4 week period where the patient will receive placebo (inactive drug) or gradually increasing doses of LCM up to the target dose of 400mg/day. The target dose or placebo will be maintained for 8 weeks followed by a 1 week reduction period then a 2 week safety follow up period.
The last subject is expected to be enrolled in December 2007.
The study was terminated based on the outcome of the planned first interim analysis, which was performed as defined in the protocol in a subset of patients. It was decided not to continue the trial. No safety concerns were identified.

The aim of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and tolerance of Ambroxol lozenges 20 mg in the treatment of sore throat in patients with acute viral pharyngitis.
|
Male and female ambulant patients complaining of a sore throat caused by acute viral pharyngitis. Every patient may be included in the trial only once. A total of 250 male and female ambulant patients between the ages of 18 and 65 years will be enrolled. Approximately 8 centers will be recruited each enrolling approximately 30-32 patients.
Study Hypothesis:
The two-sided test hypothesis, that the results of the active treatment group with 20 mg Ambroxol and the placebo group do not differ with regard to the primary endpoint (null hypothesis (H0) will be tested against the alternative (H1) that they are not equal.
Comparison(s):
PRIMARY ENDPOINT:
Indication of pain on the VRS (PI)-verbal rating scale (pain intensity)-in the first 3 hours (the patient rates his/her pain on a six-point verbal rating scale).
SECONDARY ENDPOINT (S):
1. Patient's assessment of effectiveness and tolerance. The patient assesses the effectiveness and the tolerance of the test medicine for treating his sore throat at the end of the first and second day of treatment, by means of a verbal rating scale.
2. Participating doctors assessment of tolerance.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of ceftobiprole versus a comparator in patients with fever and neutropenia
|
This study is being discontinued due to issues regarding the comparator, cefepime. In Nov 2007 FDA issued a MedWatch regarding cefepime and the trial was suspended. As of May 14, 2008 the FDA was still evaluating the data on cefepime and final follow up is pending. There were no safety issues with ceftobiprole in this study based on the enrollment of 2 subjects in September of 2007. The study is being discontinued for administrative reasons. Ceftobiprole medocaril is a cephalosporin antibiotic with anti-MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) activity. Ceftobiprole is not yet approved, but undergoing regulatory review for treatment of skin infections. This is a randomized (patients are assigned to receive the different treatments under study based on chance), double-blind (neither the patient nor the physician knows whether the drug being investigated or the comparator agent is being taken), multicenter study of treatment with ceftobiprole medocaril versus treatment with a comparator in patients 18 years of age or older, who have fever and neutropenia after chemotherapy for cancer that requires intravenous therapy. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive either ceftobiprole medocaril or comparator. In addition, patients in the comparator group who are at risk of serious infections due to gram-positive pathogens (disease-causing bacteria) may also receive an antibiotic with MRSA activity. The study will consist of the following 3 phases: a prerandomization phase (includes screening and baseline assessments); a treatment phase, and a follow-up phase consisting of a primary efficacy visit and a late follow-up visit. The primary endpoint is the clinical cure rate. The total duration of of the study is determined by the time to resolution of fever and neutropenia and the conditions associated with the episode of fever and neutropenia. This is followed by the primary efficacy visit (7 to 10 days after the end of therapy) and the late follow-up visit (28 to 35 days after the end of treatment). Cultures (samples of blood or other suspected sites of infection) will be collected during the study as well as blood samples for hematology and chemistry (safety assessments). All adverse events will also be reported throughout the study and for about 4 to 5 weeks after the last dose of study drug. Patients will be randomized to either ceftobiprole or comparator for approximately 7 to 14 days.

This is a Phase I/IIa randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and efficacy of Retapamulin ointment, 1% applied twice daily for 3 or 5 days to the anterior nares of healthy adult subjects who are nasally colonized with S. aureus. Approximately 57 healthy subjects who are nasal carriers of S. aureus will be enrolled and stratified in a 2:1 ratio so that at least 38 persistent carriers and 19 intermittent carriers complete the study. Each eligible subject will participate in three screening visits, a treatment period, and two follow-up visits. Each subject's participation in the study will be approximately 6 to 10 weeks from screening to the last follow-up visit. Subjects will participate in up to three screening visits to determine S. aureus culture positivity and colonization status.

Estrogen and progesterone are two main female sex hormones. When a woman goes through menopause, the body's production of estrogen and progesterone significantly decreases. Recent studies have shown that the breakdown of fatty acids in cardiac muscle is important in maintaining a healthy heart, and that estrogen may enhance this process. Also, cardiovascular disease (CVD) occurs more frequently in postmenopausal women than in premenopausal women. This study will determine in postmenopausal women whether estrogen increases the heart's ability to use fats as energy and whether progesterone decreases this effect.
|
Menopause is a natural event that generally occurs in women between the ages of 45 and 55. During menopause, the body starts producing less estrogen and progesterone until menstruation eventually stops. Estrogen and progesterone are involved in many important functions in a woman's body, and the drastic decline of these hormones in menopause leads to significant changes in the body. Along with such changes, postmenopausal women are at a higher risk than premenopausal women for certain health problems, such as CVD. Previous studies have revealed that alterations in the breakdown of fatty acids in cardiac muscle play a key role in a variety of cardiac disorders. In studies involving human skeletal muscle, estrogen has been shown to increase the breakdown of fatty acids, while progesterone lessens this effect. This study will determine in postmenopausal women whether estrogen increases the heart's ability to break down fats for energy use and whether progesterone decreases this effect. This study will also analyze ovariectomized mice to determine if the candidate specific estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) raloxifene and tamoxifen increase the heart's ability to use fats as energy and whether the increase is similar to that seen with estrogen. Study investigators will also create estrogen receptor knock-out mice (mice with estrogen receptors removed) to further explore the roles of estrogen and SERMs in heart metabolism.
Participation in this double-blind study will last up to 1 month and will include three study visits. During Visit 1, participants will undergo three standard clinical evaluations. The first evaluation, a medical screening, will include a medical history exam and blood tests to measure estrogen and progesterone levels, liver and kidney function, cholesterol levels, and blood sugar and insulin levels. For the second evaluation, participants will undergo a body composition study to measure total body fat and muscle content using a dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan. During the third evaluation, participants will undergo an electrocardiogram (ECG) and an echocardiogram (ECHO), each performed immediately before and after walking on a treadmill. The ECG will measure electrical activity of the heart, and the ECHO will involve imaging the heart with an ultrasound.
Visits 2 and 3, occurring 3 days apart, will each include two imaging tests of the heart: a positron-emission tomographic (PET) scan and a resting ECHO. Throughout both tests an ECG and blood pressure cuff will be used to monitor heart rhythm and blood pressure, respectively. During the PET scan, participants will lie flat in an imaging machine for three 45- to 60- minute intervals. Blood will be drawn and radioactive tracers will be injected via intravenous lines placed in the arms. The ECHO test will also be done during the PET scan.
Between Visits 2 and 3, participants will be randomly assigned to one of two hormone replacement therapy (HRT) regimens: estrogen plus placebo or estrogen plus progesterone. All participants will wear a patch containing estrogen and take a pill of either placebo or progesterone for the 3 days leading up to Visit 3. All participants will be asked for permission to store a sample of their blood for up to 10 years to be used in future research studies.

To evaluate changes in coagulation (blood clotting) factors and platelet function in multiple myeloma participants undergoing VELCADE treatment for the first time.
|
Cardiovascular complications during the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma are not uncommon, (10%) and the frequency clearly increases with the use of regimens containing thalidomide in combination with glucocorticosteroids or chemotherapy especially adriamycin. Even with prophylactic anticoagulation, DVT still occurs in 10% of such patients. The use of full anticoagulation raises considerable concern of bleeding especially during the post chemotherapy thrombocytopenic period. We observed no thromboembolic episodes when Velcade was added to thalidomide and adriamycin containing chemotherapy.
Therefore, we would like to investigate this protective antithrombotic effect of VELCADE in a malignancy associated with a hypercoagulable state in a group of 10 patients with Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma.

Ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke patients transferred by Air Care helicopters to the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics (UIHC) for further care will be invited to participate in a research study testing the following: 1) feasibility of beginning a research study while the patient is in transit to UIHC, and 2)test efficacy of a low risk medication called, Ranitidine, to help lower the chances of developing chemical pneumonitis in patients that have had a stroke.
Patients will be randomly assigned to receive a single dose injection of either Ranitidine (50 mg) or placebo (normal saline). Independently of the study injection, the patient will continue to receive the usual standard medical care for their stroke. The patient will be cared for by a team of doctors in the stroke service. Some of these doctors and nurses are investigators for this study and will assess the patient's neurological status to see how much the stroke has affected the patient. They will also determine by the patient's symptoms and the results of a chest x-ray (if that test becomes necessary due to fever) whether the patient has developed chemical pneumonitis They will also administer a questionnaire to the patient or their relative prior to discharge about their thoughts on doing clinical studies while being transported by the helicopter and to collect any thoughts they may have had about improving this process. Completing the questionnaire is voluntary, and the patient is free to skip any question that they would prefer to not answer.
Three months after the patient has had the stroke, they or their relative will be contacted by phone to determine the patient's long-term outcome after their stroke. After the follow-up telephone conversation the participation in the study will end.

The purpose of this study is:
* To find out if the chemotherapy treatment using Pemetrexed (Alimta) and Oxaliplatin (Eloxatin) given together will kill the cancer cells in the patient's body and shrink the size of their tumor. This may allow patients to live longer or decrease the frequency and/or severity of the symptoms caused by the cancer. Pemetrexed has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat Lung Cancer. Oxaliplatin has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of Colon Cancer. The combination of these two drugs has been used to treat patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer in Italy but not yet in the USA
Other purposes of this study are:
* To better detail the toxic effects of this chemotherapy combination.
* To determine whether the level of specific gene and/or gene products (genes are genetic material that allows cells to make proteins such as enzymes) are useful to predict if this chemotherapy combination will work or not.

Treatment Plan:
This is a non-randomized, two stage design, open-label Phase II trial in newly diagnosed patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have previously received and failed adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy for early stage, resected NSCLC.
Correlative Studies; Molecular correlative studies (genomic and proteomic) are included in this protocol. Prior to chemotherapy, all patients will undergo a biopsy of the safest and/or most accessible site of tumor in order to obtain tissue for mRNA measurements. Additionally, patients will undergo blood sampling prior to the start of chemotherapy and after 2 and 4 cycles of therapy in order to obtain plasma for the mass spectrometry analysis.
Patients, whose second and/or third specimen cannot be collected for any reason, will remain in the trial, and treatment will continue as outlined in the protocol.
Expected Number of Patients:
The number of patients was calculated according to the procedure described in the Sample Size Calculation section of the protocol. It is estimated that up to 50 patients will be enrolled to obtain the 43 evaluable patients needed to meet the statistical design of the study.
Method of Treatment Allocation:
A patient number will be assigned sequentially to each patient upon registration. The patient number and the patient initials are to be entered on each page of the Case Report Form.
Duration of Study for Each Patient:
All patients will be treated with up to 6 cycles of chemotherapy. However, at the discretion of the treating physician and principle investigator, patients may continue chemotherapy, beyond 6 cycles, until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or the development of any study removal criteria. Patients will undergo an evaluation for extent of disease after every other treatment cycle.
Patients will be considered to be on-study for the duration of their treatment and during the 30 days following treatment discontinuation. Treatment discontinuation is defined as the last day of study treatment. All included patients will be followed up until recovery or stabilization of all adverse events or return to baseline condition. Patients who discontinue from the trial prior to experiencing disease progression will be followed monthly until demonstration of progressive disease.
Study Centers:
The H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center will conduct this trial through the Moffitt Clinical Research Affiliate Network. Patients will be evaluated and the biopsy will be performed at the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center. Since all the chemotherapeutic drugs used in the protocol are FDA approved, and phase I and II safety data regarding this regimen has been published30,31, the chemotherapy may be administered at the patients' primary (referring) oncologists' office. Documentation of the administration of the chemotherapy will be obtained for record keeping purposes.

Acetaminophen is commonly used to treat fever or pain. Your body clears acetaminophen by processing it in the liver. During the processing, some of the acetaminophen may bind to proteins in the liver. The protein-acetaminophen product is called an "adduct." After a large acetaminophen overdose, the liver has to process a lot of acetaminophen, so large amounts of adducts are formed. However, we have found that lower levels may be formed even when people take recommended doses. The purpose of this study is to measure the amount of adducts formed when healthy people who do not drink alcohol take normal doses of acetaminophen for 10 days.

The objective of this study was to obtain preliminary open-label data on the efficacy and tolerability of memantine, an anti-glutamatergic medication with a unique pharmacodynamic profile, in individuals with OCD and individuals with GAD. Because glutamatergic hyperactivity in frontal and frontal-subcortical circuits may play a role in the symptomatic expression of OCD, and possibly GAD, agents that reduce glutamatergic neurotransmission should provide unique anti-stress and anti-obsessional benefits. Memantine is a specific, uncompetitive antagonist at the NMDA receptor that blocks sustained activation of the NMDA receptor by high concentrations of glutamate under pathological conditions but rapidly leaves the NMDA channel upon transient physiological activation by low concentrations of glutamate.
|
Several case reports and an open-label trial have reported efficacy of anti-glutamatergic medications for the treatment of OCD. In an open-label trial of riluzole, a glutamate release inhibitor, seven of 13 adult patients with OCD improved, and five were categorized as treatment responders. Another open trial found riluzole to be effective for four of six children with treatment-refractory OCD. N-acetylcysteine, an agent that likely attenuates glutamate neurotransmission, was effective as an augmentation in one patient with OCD. Two case reports described memantine treatment of OCD. Poyurovsky et al. reported improvement with memantine augmentation in one patient with treatment resistant OCD, while Pasquini and Biondi noted improvement in one OCD patient with checking compulsions but not in one with contamination obsessions. There have been no controlled or open-label trials of memantine in OCD reported thus far.
Few studies have examined the efficacy of anti-glutamatergic agents in GAD. In an open-label trial of riluzole treatment in 18 patients with GAD, twelve patients responded and eight achieved remission. A double-blind, controlled study found that LY354740, a metabotropic glutamate receptor 2/3 (mGlu2/3) agonist, was significantly more effective than placebo for GAD. No studies of memantine in GAD have been reported thus far. We hypothesized that treatment with memantine would result in significant symptom reduction in both OCD and GAD.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether an experimental fluoridated dentifrice is effective in the treatment of dental caries
|
Topical fluorides have been proven to be clinically effective in the prevention of dental caries. It is generally agreed that anti-caries effect of fluoride (F) is mainly by decreasing the rate of enamel demineralization and enhancing the rate of enamel remineralization. An in-situ Surface Micro-hardness (SMH) test is widely used to evaluate enamel demineralization and remineralization during the caries process. Determination of fluoride uptake in-situ also provides better estimation of true fluoride bioavailability of fluoride dentifrice products. In this study, an in-situ remineralization fluoride uptake model will be used to compare the efficacy of experimental dentifrice with a marketed dentifrice and placebo dentifrice. Participants wore partial dentures containing two partially demineralized enamel specimens for two weeks- 24 hours per day, except when brushing (twice daily) with test dentifrice. Following each treatment period, the enamel specimens were analyzed for SMH recovery and fluoride uptake through microdrill enamel biopsy technique.
