Filter by:The primary objective of the study is to evaluate changes in weight short and long term with bifeprunox and quetiapine. Study participation for the subject is 57 weeks.
RATIONALE: Exercise and dietary counseling may affect weight loss and improve the quality of life of obese endometrial cancer patients and may help them live longer and more comfortably. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying the effects of exercise and dietary counseling on weight loss and quality of life of obese patients with stage I or stage II endometrial cancer in remission.
RATIONALE: Collecting information on how craniopharyngioma is diagnosed and treated may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment. It may also help identify the intermediate- and long-term effects of treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is collecting information on diagnosis, treatment, and quality of life of young patients who are undergoing surgery for craniopharyngioma.
The purpose of this study is to assess a possible predictor for weight loss seen in epilepsy patients treated with topiramate.
It is hypothesized that the use of a partial supplement diet, which includes the use of meal replacements, will result in significantly greater weight loss after three and six months compared to an isocaloric diet that does not include supplements. It is also hypothesized that the partial supplement diet will result in larger improvements in body composition, disease biomarkers, and health parameters (blood pressure, lipids) compared to the non-supplement diet. Finally, it is hypothesized that subjective ratings of satiety will be significantly higher, and ratings of hunger lower, in the group consuming a partial supplement diet.
The purpose of the study is to determine if the combination of recombinant human growth hormone plus rosiglitazone (an insulin-sensitizing drug) is safe and more effective than either drug alone (or no active therapy) for the treatment of fat accumulation in people with HIV infection and insulin resistance.
The primary purpose of this study is to compare the affects of aripiprazole and olanzapine on weight change.
RATIONALE: It is not yet known whether the supplement creatine is effective in increasing weight and improving appetite and quality of life in patients who have cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying how well creatine works in increasing weight and improving appetite and quality of life in patients with weight loss caused by cancer.
RATIONALE: Oxandrolone and megestrol may help prevent weight loss and improve quality of life in patients with cancer. It is not yet known whether oxandrolone is more effective than megestrol in preventing weight loss and improving quality of life in patients who are receiving chemotherapy for solid tumors. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying oxandrolone to see how well it works compared to megestrol in preventing weight loss and improving quality of life in patients who are receiving chemotherapy for solid tumors.
RATIONALE: A home-based exercise and/or diet program may improve the quality of life of breast cancer patients by preventing an increase in body fat and weight and a loss of lean body tissue. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying the effectiveness of three home-based diet and/or exercise programs in preventing weight gain and loss of muscle tissue in women who are receiving chemotherapy for stage I, stage II, or stage IIIA breast cancer.
