Filter by:The main objective is to determine the efficacy of Gammaplex by measuring the number of serious acute bacterial infections during treatment with Gammaplex over a 12 month period. The secondary objectives are to assess the safety and tolerability of Gammaplex and to compare the data collected from adult subjects with PID from the GMX01 study
The purpose of our study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a lifestyle program for women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). The investigators want to assess the effect of a pulse-based diet (i.e. a diet that contains lentils, chick-peas, peas, and beans) and aerobic exercise for improving PCOS disease features and risk factors for metabolic syndrome. We would like to determine the therapeutic effects of a lifestyle program that combines a pulse-based diet and exercise on the multiple disease measures of PCOS and metabolic syndrome.
RATIONALE: Caspofungin acetate may be effective in treating fungal infections in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome who are receiving treatment for their cancer. It is not yet known whether caspofungin acetate is more effective when treatment starts after development of a fever or after the infection is shown in laboratory test, chest x-ray, or CT scan. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying the best time to start caspofungin acetate therapy in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome that is newly diagnosed or in first relapse.
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term outcome in a cohort of Gardner-Syndrome patients receiving prophylaxis and treatment for intestinal and non-intestinal tumors.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of eltrombopag in people who have myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with thrombocytopenia who have progressed or are resistant to decitabine or azacitidine. (These are the only 2 drugs approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration [FDA] which can improve platelet counts). The investigators (the study doctor, study staff, and sponsor) want to find out what effects, good or bad, eltrombopag (study drug) may have on people with low platelet counts due to MDS. The investigators will also be testing how well eltrombopag may work at different doses in these diseases.
Severe sepsis/septic shock is a serious condition associated with high mortality rate. Hydrocortisone has been recommended as a useful treatment to decrease mortality in hemodynamically unstable septic shock patients, not response to fluid and moderate dose of vasopressor. During the progression of severe sepsis/septic shock, multi-organ dysfunction can develop. Acute lung injury (ALI) and its more severe form, acute respiratory syndrome (ARDS) is one of the common organ dysfunction associated with septic shock. Information from a meta-analysis suggested that moderate dose of hydrocortisone may improve the ARDS patients' outcome. Whether hydrocortisone can effectively prevent disease progression and death in severe sepsis/septic shock patients who complicated with ALI/ARDS has not been proven.
Identification of the pathophysiology associated with Eisenmenger's syndrome has led to the evaluation of targeted therapies. Iloprost, a prostacyclin analogue, is one such targeted therapy used in patients with Eisenmenger's syndrome. The purpose of our study is to assess the effects of inhaled iloprost on patients with Eisenmenger's syndrome.
To explore the efficacy, safety and tolerability of STX209 (arbaclofen) administered for the treatment of social withdrawal in adolescents and adults with fragile X syndrome (FXS)
This study is designed to determine whether levodopa will lead to an improvement in the development and tremor in children with Angelman syndrome (AS). It has been suggested that levodopa, a medication that is usually used to treat Parkinson disease in adults, may help children with AS in their overall development and reduce the tremor that some of them have. If levodopa is found to be beneficial for children with AS, this could lead to a new treatment for AS. Funding Source - FDA-OOPD
TRACE is a Multicentre Retrospective Study planned to gather follow up data for a period of 1 year in order to understand anti-thrombotic management patterns and outcomes of Acute Coronary Syndrome patients in India. This retrospective study is designed to provide a rapid and quick analysis of the existing database of ACS patients. So as to ensure quality check in the study, a pilot study will be conducted with around 500 patients at 10 centres across India and based on the meaningful results of the pilot study, full retrospective multi-centric study will be initiated at various selected centres across India. This study will use available registry data from a defined time period of Jan 2007-Dec 2009.
