NCT ID: NCT02312258 Completed - Multiple Myeloma Clinical Trials

A Study of Oral Ixazomib Maintenance Therapy in Participants With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma (NDMM) Not Treated With Stem Cell Transplantation (SCT)

Start date: April 9, 2015
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of ixazomib maintenance therapy on progression free survival (PFS) compared with placebo, in participants with NDMM who have had a major response (complete response [CR], very good partial response [VGPR], or partial response [PR]) to initial therapy and who have not undergone SCT.

NCT ID: NCT02310061 Completed - Clinical trials for Kidney Failure, Chronic

Lung Water by Ultrasound Guided Treatment in Hemodialysis Patients (The Lust Study).

LUST
Start date: March 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Volume overload is a leading risk factor for death and cardiovascular events in end stage renal disease patients maintained on chronic dialysis, particularly in those with myocardial ischemia and heart failure which represent a substantial fraction of this population. Early identification of volume overload may prevent cardiovascular sequel in these patients but clinical signs of volume expansion are unsatisfactory to reliably identify patients at risk and to monitor them over time. On the other hand, however reliable, standard techniques for measuring extracellular or circulating (blood) volume do not convey information on fundamental heart function parameters that determine the individual haemodynamic tolerance to volume excess and the response to ultrafiltration, i.e. left ventricular (LV) filling pressure and LV function. Extra-vascular lung water is critically dependent on these parameters and represents a proxy of both, circulating volume and LV filling pressure and function, and may therefore be a better criterion to identify patients at a higher risk of volume-dependent adverse clinical outcomes and to monitor the effect of therapy aimed at preventing these outcomes. A fast (< 5 min.), easy to learn, simple and non-expensive technique which measures extra-vascular lung water by using standard ultrasound (US) machines has been validated in dialysis patients. Whether systematic measurement of lung water by this technique may translate into better clinical outcomes in End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients has never been tested. The aim of this randomized clinical trial is that of testing a treatment policy guided by extra-vascular lung water measurements by ultrasound to prevent all-cause death, decompensated heart failure and non-fatal myocardial infarction in high risk dialysis patients with myocardial ischemia (a history of myocardial infarction with or without ST elevation or unstable angina, acute coronary syndrome documented by ECG recordings and cardiac troponins or stable angina pectoris with documented coronary artery disease by prior coronary angiography or ECG) or overt heart failure (NYHA class III-IV).

NCT ID: NCT02307513 Completed - Behçet's Syndrome Clinical Trials

A Phase 3 Randomized, Double-blind Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Apremilast (CC-10004) in Subjects With Active Behçet's Disease

Start date: December 30, 2014
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apremilast in the treatment of oral ulcers in adults with active Behçet's disease (BD).

NCT ID: NCT02304861 Completed - Cataract Clinical Trials

Viscoat Versus Visthesia. A Comparative Study of Post-cataract Endothelial Cell Loss

Start date: January 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Objective of this study is the comparative assessment of the beneficial impact of the Viscoat viscoelastic (OVD) and Visthesia OVD on endothelial cells and corneal edema following torsional-ip cataract extraction surgery. Participants will be recruited from the Cataract Service of the University Hospital of Alexandroupolis (UHA) in a consecutive-if-eligible basis. Eligibility criteria include diagnosis of senile cataract with stage 3 nuclear opalescence according to the Lens Opacities Classification System III (LOCS-3) grading scale. By means of a custom computer randomization program all participants will randomly populate two study groups according to the OVD used (ie. viscoat or visthesia).

NCT ID: NCT02304484 Completed - Clinical trials for Hypercholesterolemia

Open-label Extension (OLE) Study to Assess Safety and Efficacy of Evolocumab

Start date: November 24, 2014
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study was to characterize the safety and tolerability of long-term administration of evolocumab in adults with known coronary artery disease and hypercholesterolemia.

NCT ID: NCT02303444 Completed - Thyroid Neoplasms Clinical Trials

An Observational Study in Differentiated Thyroid Cancer Which is Radioactive Iodine (RAI) Refractory to Assess the Use of Multikinase Inhibitors

RIFTOS MKI
Start date: April 8, 2015
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of the study was to assess the use of Multikinase Inhibitors (MKIs) in the treatment of patients with a progressive differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) refractory to radioactive iodine (RAI) who do not have any symptoms.

NCT ID: NCT02302807 Completed - Bladder Cancer Clinical Trials

A Study of Atezolizumab Compared With Chemotherapy in Participants With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Urothelial Bladder Cancer [IMvigor211]

Start date: January 13, 2015
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a Phase III, global, multicenter, open-label, two-arm, randomized, controlled study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab compared with chemotherapy in participants with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial bladder cancer (UBC) who have progressed during or following a platinum-containing regimen. The anticipated time on study treatment is based on continued clinical benefit, i.e., until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The target sample size is 931 participants.

NCT ID: NCT02302638 Completed - Infertility Clinical Trials

Embryo Development Using Two Commercial Single-step Media

Start date: November 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This prospective study with sibling oocytes will evaluate the efficiency of two commercial single-step media, namely Sage 1-step and Continuous Single Culture Medium (CSCM), in terms of embryo utilization rates, blastocyst formation rates, embryo quality and pregnancy rates. Embryos will be cultured continuously for up to 6 days under identical conditions.
