NCT00499811
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors or lymphoma and liver dysfunction. (closed for accrual as of 04/05/2010) Vorinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Vorinostat may have different effects in patients who have changes in their liver function.
NCT00028899
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as gemtuzumab ozogamicin can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Combining monoclonal antibody therapy with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining gemtuzumab ozogamicin with combination chemotherapy in treating children who have relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.
NCT00070174
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy before a donor bone marrow transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. Also, monoclonal antibodies, such as gemtuzumab ozogamicin, can find cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well gemtuzumab ozogamicin works in treating young patients who are undergoing remission induction, intensification therapy, and allogeneic bone marrow transplant for newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT00002756
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one chemotherapy drug and giving them as induction intensification may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well induction intensification works in treating infants with newly diagnosed acute lymphocytic leukemia.
NCT00002485
RATIONALE: Taking part in a clinical trial may help children with cancer receive more effective treatment. PURPOSE: Determine why patients who are eligible for protocols made available through the Pediatric Oncology Group do not enroll in them, and develop strategies to increase enrollment on these clinical trials.
NCT01273090
RATIONALE: Imetelstat sodium may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. PURPOSE: This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and best dose of imetelstat sodium in treating young patients with refractory or recurrent solid tumors or lymphoma.
NCT00644163
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a risk-reduction program in preventing the transmission of HIV and sexually transmitted diseases among African-American heterosexual couples, with one partner having been previously diagnosed with an HIV infection.
NCT00782379
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy, such as fludarabine, busulfan, and cyclophosphamide, before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving high-dose cyclophosphamide together with tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil after transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy works when given together with a donor stem cell transplant, followed by tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and high-dose cyclophosphamide, in treating patients with high-risk hematologic cancer.
NCT00363116
The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and efficacy of two dosing regimens of daclizumab in simultaneous kidney/pancreas transplant recipients.
NCT00897039
RATIONALE: Collecting samples of tissue from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors predict how well patients will respond to treatment with certain chemotherapy drugs and plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at tumor tissue samples to predict response to chemotherapy in patients with ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer.
NCT00457392
This study will test whether treatment with erlotinib plus SU011248 is better than erlotinib alone in patients with advanced/metastatic lung cancer who have received previous treatment with a platinum-based regimen.
NCT00828841
This study is testing the investigational drug, cetuximab, in combination with different chemotherapy drugs for lung cancer. The aim of the study is to determine which of the drug combinations looks most promising and should be tested further. The study will also look at what side effects may occur.
NCT00004064
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of monoclonal antibody therapy in treating patients who have ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer.
NCT00003634
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known whether giving monoclonal antibody therapy is more effective than a placebo in treating patients with ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer who have responded to surgery and chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of monoclonal antibody therapy in treating patients with residual disease from stage III or stage IV ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer following surgery and chemotherapy.
NCT00282581
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and immunogenicity of two MVA smallpox vaccine injections in healthy adults that are 18-35 years of age with HIV infection
NCT00112554
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and VNP40101M, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying cytarabine and VNP40101M to see how well they work compared to cytarabine alone in treating patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT00600821
To determine if the addition of AG-013736 to chemotherapy is beneficial in patients with advanced lung cancer who have not been previously treated.
NCT01306630
This is an open-label, multi-center, dose-finding study of tivozanib administered in combination with capecitabine. During the dose-escalation portion, sequential cohorts of subjects with advanced solid tumors will be enrolled in order to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). If the MTD is not reached, the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) will be determined. In the expansion cohort, subjects with locally advanced or metastatic breast or colon cancer will be enrolled at MTD (or RP2D) to further evaluate safety and activity of this combination in these tumor types.
NCT00633529
To evaluate the safety of the proposed Phase II dosage of the investigational drug IMO 2055 when combined with erlotinib and bevacizumab in patients with previously treated advanced NSCLC.
NCT00053508
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and the effectiveness of a new vaccine for the prevention of the disease, smallpox.
