NCT00719862
The Purpose of this study is to determine if one allergy medication (0.15% azelastine hydrochloride) is more effective than Placebo alone
NCT00074048
RATIONALE: The BL22 immunotoxin can locate tumor cells and kill them without harming normal cells. This may be an effective treatment for hairy cell leukemia that has not responded to treatment with cladribine. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying BL22 immunotoxin to see how well it works in treating patients previously treated with cladribine for hairy cell leukemia.
NCT00003913
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Umbilical cord blood transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy or radiation therapy that was used to kill cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of umbilical cord blood transplantation plus combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have hematologic cancer or nonmalignant hematologic disease.
NCT00103844
The primary purpose of this study is to estimate the major cytogenetic response rates of BMS-354825 and imatinib (800 mg/d) in subjects with chronic phase, Philadelphia chromosome positive, chronic myeloid leukemia (PH+ CML) with disease resistant to imatinib at a dose of 400-600 mg/d.
NCT00423254
The present clinical trial is a dose comparison of a multi-component active immunotherapy designed to stimulate an immune reaction to specific tumor associated antigens which are highly expressed on a large number of solid cancers.
NCT00026611
The purpose of this study is to see how many people respond to a smallpox vaccine when a sore forms where the shot was given. The world was declared free of smallpox in 1980. General routine vaccinations for smallpox were stopped in the U.S. in 1971. In 1976, the recommendation for routine vaccination of healthcare workers was also discontinued. The only people who presently receive this vaccine are people who work with vaccinia virus or monkeypox virus. Because the world was considered free of smallpox infections, this vaccine was no longer produced; there is a limited supply available in the United States. Because of the limited amount of Dryvax vaccine (vaccinia virus) against smallpox, this study will look at the ability to dilute the vaccine making more doses available in the event of a smallpox outbreak. The study seeks to characterize a strategy of vaccination against smallpox with various doses of Dryvax, followed by revaccination with the same dose, if required, in volunteers 18-32 years of age with a negative history of smallpox vaccination.
NCT00003289
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of UCN-01 in treating patients with advanced cancer that has not responded to previous treatment.
NCT00064285
RATIONALE: Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for cancer cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy such as flavopiridol use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining imatinib mesylate with flavopiridol may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of flavopiridol and imatinib mesylate in treating patients with hematologic cancer.
NCT00004871
RATIONALE: Azacitidine plus phenylbutyrate may help leukemia cells develop into normal white blood cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining azacitidine and phenylbutyrate in treating patients who have acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.
NCT00006042
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Bone marrow transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy used to kill cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of cyclophosphamide plus bone marrow transplantation in treating patients who have hematologic cancer.
NCT00113516
The purpose of this study is to find out if SU011248 (sunitinib) provides additional benefit when it is given after treatment with two chemotherapy drugs carboplatin and paclitaxel and also if sunitinib is safe for patients with locally advanced and metastatic Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
NCT00238342
RATIONALE: Finding specific proteins in the blood may help doctors tell whether a patient has ovarian cancer. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well proteomic profiling works in diagnosing ovarian cancer in patients who are undergoing surgery for an abnormal pelvic mass.
NCT00097214
This is a phase II study in previously untreated subjects with histologically or cytologically proven stage IIIB/IV NSCLC designed to determine the efficacy of first line treatment with carboplatin and cetuximab.
NCT00017342
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining bryostatin 1 with cytarabine in treating patients who have relapsed primary acute myelogenous leukemia.
NCT00003187
RATIONALE: Bone marrow transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy used to kill cancer cells. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Eliminating the T cells from the donor cells before transplanting them may prevent this from happening. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II/III trial to compare the effectiveness of conventional bone marrow transplantation with T cell-depleted bone marrow transplantation in treating patients who have leukemia, myelodysplasia, or lymphoblastic lymphoma.
NCT00003079
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of bryostatin 1 and high dose cytarabine in treating patients with refractory or relapsed acute myelocytic or acute lymphocytic leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia or refractory or relapsed lymphoblastic lymphoma.
NCT00516100
Pemetrexed is an FDA-approved treatment for advanced lung cancer but the response rate is still very low. Bortezomib is currently approved to treat myeloma in patients who have already been treated. Currently, multiple studies are actively investigating how well bortezomib works with other drugs. This study is testing how much bortezomib can be given to advanced lung cancer patients who have already received one treatment. This study will also see how well bortezomib and pemetrexed work together to treat lung cancer patients.
NCT00491699
The purpose of this study is to determine the safest dose of XL999 and how well subjects with Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer tolerate XL999. XL999 is a small molecule inhibitor of multiple kinases including VEGFR, PDGFR, FGFR, FLT-3, and Src, which are involved in tumor cell growth, formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis), and metastasis.
NCT00397293

NCT00544960
This is a double- blind, multicenter, randomized Phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AT-101 in combination with docetaxel in relapsed/refractory non-small cell lung cancer
