NCT00050960
This study evaluates the use of Targretin capsules (bexarotene) in combination with standard chemotherapy for the treatment of metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) in patients who have not yet received chemotherapy for their lung cancer.
NCT00849654
The purpose of this study is to establish the safety and optimal dose of orally administered PCI-32765 in patients with recurrent B cell lymphoma.
NCT00003624
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Chemoprotective drugs, such as amifostine, may protect normal cells from the side effects of chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of amifostine in reducing the risk of side effects caused by cisplatin and paclitaxel in treating women who have ovarian, peritoneal, cervical, fallopian tube, uterine, or endometrial cancer.
NCT00777309
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind phase 2 study designed to compare treatment with ARQ 197 plus erlotinib to erlotinib plus placebo in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. The study will enroll patients who have had one prior chemotherapy regimen (other than erlotinib) for NSCLC.
NCT00520208
This is a Phase II, open-label, non-randomized study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of tamibarotene in adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) following treatment with all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide (ATO). Patients must have received and failed therapy with ATRA and ATO. Treatment may have been administered either as combination therapy or sequentially as single agents. Patients who are intolerant to either drug are eligible for this study.
NCT00464633
Multicenter, open-label, study of alvocidib in previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients. Primary objective is to determine overall response rate. The secondary objectives are: * to assess overall safety, * to assess duration of response, progression free survival, and overall survival. Clinical benefit and pharmacokinetics parameters are also evaluated.
NCT01265199
The main purpose of this study are to determine the maximum dose of AT-406 that can be safely given in combination with cytarabine and daunorubicin to humans. Other purposes are to determine how the drug is broken down in the body, and to see if there are any molecular interactions that can help determine how AT-406 works. Side effects will also be studied in an effort to make sure that this drug is safe to take.
NCT00288275
Chemoresponse assays (lab test) measure the effect that chemotherapy treatment has on a patient's cancer cells in the lab. This test has shown success in a retrospective study in predicting how an individual patient's tumor will respond to a given chemotherapy and how treatment utilizing an agent that the test said that a patient's cells would be sensitive too corresponds to a longer progression free interval. This study will determine the ability of two tests used to predict the success of chemotherapy in recurrent, persistent, or refractory cancer of the ovaries, fallopian tube(s) or peritoneum by measuring how long patients live without progression.
NCT00780598
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tosedostat in elderly patients suffering from refractory or relapsed AML.
NCT00530764
The purpose of this study is to determine the effective dose range and to demonstrate a non-effective dose range of Sativex in patients with advanced cancer, who experience inadequate pain relief even though they are on optimized chronic opioid therapy.
NCT00756847
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of XL147 in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin in adults with solid tumors. XL147 is a new chemical entity that inhibits PI3 Kinase. Inactivation of PI3K has been shown to inhibit growth and induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) in tumor cells. In clinical practice, the combination of paclitaxel and carboplatin is an accepted treatment regimen for various solid tumors, including ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
NCT00953147
This is a 6-month multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, efficacy and safety study of ciclesonide HFA nasal aerosol administered once-daily to male and female subjects 12 years or older diagnosed with perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR).
NCT00088556
The purpose of this trial is to study the efficacy and safety of the triplet combination of TLK286, carboplatin and paclitaxel as first-line therapy for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT00854360
This is a phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, 2-week, multi-center, dose-range-finding study in male or female patients (12 years and older) with SAR.
NCT00517595
The primary objective is to determine the progression free survival with pemetrexed, and gemcitabine plus bevacizumab as first-line chemotherapy in elderly patients with Stage IIIB/IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The secondary objectives are to determine the overall response rate; overall survival; chemotherapy induced toxicity profile of this combination; time to progression; and patient reported symptom burden.
NCT00004934
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known whether receiving paclitaxel and carboplatin with epirubicin is more effective than paclitaxel and carboplatin alone for ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of paclitaxel and carboplatin with or without epirubicin in treating patients who have stage IIB, stage III, or stage IV invasive ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer.
NCT00829517
This project seeks to demonstrate that computer kiosks in a clinic waiting room can improve access to hormonal contraception and screening for sexually transmitted infections. The study will be a randomized controlled trial which will evaluate the use of a computer kiosk module to compare the proportion of women of reproductive age who receive a prescription for hormonal contraception when computer-assisted provision of hormonal contraception is offered (intervention) to encounters when the study clinic provides standard contraceptive care (control). Subjects will be contacted approximately 3 months (range 2-4 months) after the clinic visit to complete a follow-up phone interview. The study population will include English and Spanish-speaking women ages 18-45 who seek care at this clinic. Our hypothesis is that computer-assisted provision of hormonal contraception (intervention)will increase the proportion of women of reproductive age who receive a prescription for hormonal contraception versus standard contraceptive care(control).
NCT00060372
This phase I trial is studying how well ipilimumab works after allogeneic stem cell transplant in treating patients with persistent or progressive cancer. Monoclonal antibodies can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells.
NCT00886496
RATIONALE: Recombinant human mannose-binding lectin (MBL) may be effective in preventing infection in young patients with fever and neutropenia receiving chemotherapy for blood disease or cancer. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of recombinant human mannose-binding lectin in treating young patients with MBL deficiency and fever and neutropenia.
NCT00003361
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of decitabine in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome.
