NCT02322281
The purpose of this study is to compare the anti-tumor efficacy of oral single-agent rociletinib, as measured by investigator assessment of the PFS, with that of single-agent cytotoxic chemotherapy in patients with EGFR-mutated, advanced/metastatic NSCLC after failure of at least 1 previous EGFR-directed TKI and at least 1 line of platinum-containing doublet chemotherapy.
NCT01537159
The purpose of this study is to investigate if a type of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the bone marrow before the start of standard chemotherapy can predict complete remission of leukemia patients after the therapy. This type of MRI scan, called dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI), measures bone marrow blood flow. For those patients who do not achieve complete remission status after initial therapy and will be treated with additional therapy, the investigators are also interested in determining if the second MRI exam before the additional therapy can predict complete remission. If successfully tested, the MRI exam may be used in the future to help with early identification of patients who are unlikely to respond to standard chemotherapy. This will allow for a personalized therapeutic plan to be developed for these patients at an early stage and prevent them from being exposed to toxic and ineffective therapies.
NCT01846611
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of trabectedin+DOXIL as a third-line chemotherapy regimen (treatment) in patients with platinum-sensitive advanced-relapsed epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer who received 2 previous lines of platinum-based chemotherapy.
NCT01523587
This randomised, open-label phase III trial will be performed in patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the lung requiring second-line treatment after receiving first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. The primary objective of this trial is to compare the efficacy of BIBW 2992 to erlotinib as second-line treatment in this group of patients.
NCT01539512
This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to evaluate the effect of idelalisib in combination with rituximab on the onset, magnitude, and duration of tumor control in participants previously treated for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Eligible patients will be randomized with a 1:1 ratio into 1 of the 2 treatment arms to receive either idelalisib plus rituximab or placebo plus rituximab. Participants who are tolerating primary study therapy but experience definitive CLL progression are eligible to receive active idelalisib therapy in the extension study, GS-US-312-0117.
NCT02179671
Primary objective: To assess the efficacy of various sequences of either a small molecule or an IMT (IMT-A) followed by a IMT-B (MEDI4736) .
NCT02258529
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the overall response rate (ORR) and complete response (CR) rate to treatment with idelalisib in combination with rituximab in previously untreated adults with follicular lymphoma (FL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). An increased rate of deaths and serious adverse events (SAEs) among participants with front-line chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and early-line indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (iNHL) treated with idelalisib in combination with standard therapies was observed by the independent data monitoring committee (DMC) during regular review of 3 Gilead Phase 3 studies. Gilead reviewed the unblinded data and terminated those studies in agreement with the DMC recommendation and in consultation with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). All front-line studies of idelalisib, including this study, were also terminated.
NCT00550992
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also 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 cyclosporine, methotrexate, leucovorin, and antithymocyte globulin before and after transplant may stop this from happening. It is not yet known which treatment regimen is most effective in treating acute leukemia. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well different therapies work in treating infants with newly diagnosed acute leukemia.
NCT01282424
The primary objective will be to assess the overall response rate and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of idelalisib (IDELA; GS-1101) in participants with previously treated indolent Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (iNHL) that is refractory both to rituximab and to alkylating-agent-containing chemotherapy. Eligible participants will initiate oral therapy with idelalisib at a starting dose of 150 mg taken twice per day. Treatment with idelalisib can continue in compliant participants as long as the study is still ongoing and the participants appear to be benefiting from treatment with acceptable safety.
NCT00104858
This phase II trial studies how well fludarabine phosphate with radiation therapy and rituximab followed by donor stem cell infusions work in treating patients with high-risk chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) with low side effects. Nonmyeloablative stem cell transplants use low doses of chemotherapy (fludarabine phosphate) and radiation to suppress the patient's immune system enough to prevent rejection of the donor's stem cells. Following infusion of donor stem cells, a mixture of the patient's and the donor's stem cells will exist and is called "mixed chimerism". Donor cells will attack the patient's leukemia. This is called the "graft-versus-leukemia" effect. Rituximab will be given 3 days before and three times after infusing stem cells to help in controlling CLL early after transplant till the "graft-versus-leukemia" takes control. Further, rituximab could augment the "graft-versus-leukemia" effect by activating donor immune cells and hence improve disease control. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also attack the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening.
NCT00910910
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of lenalidomide as a first line therapy in treating patients with B-cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. This study will compare the effects (good and bad) of lenalidomide with chlorambucil.
NCT02993783
The purpose of this study is to assess the initial activity, tolerability, safety and to identify a recommended dose and regimen of vedolizumab intravenous (IV) administered for treatment of steroid-refractory acute intestinal GvHD in participants who have undergone allo-HSCT.
NCT02306291
This study will evaluate GMI-1271, a specific E-selectin antagonist, in acute myeloid leukemia in combination with standard agents used to treat this disease.
NCT01875874
This phase 2 study is developed to evaluate the effect of ELAD on overall survival (OS) in subjects with acute liver failure (ALF) compared to matched historical controls.
NCT01729845
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of decitabine followed by mitoxantrone hydrochloride, etoposide, and cytarabine and to see how well they work in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome that has returned after a period of improvement or does not respond to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as mitoxantrone hydrochloride, etoposide, cytarabine, and decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells.
NCT02399267
The requirement for invasive mechanical ventilation is a defining feature of critical illness. Liberation or weaning is the process during which the work of breathing is transferred from the ventilator back to the patient. Approximately 40% of the time spent on mechanical ventilation is dedicated to weaning. Limiting the duration of invasive ventilation has been identified as a key research priority in critical care. Studies support the use of screening protocols (once daily vs. usual care) to identify weaning candidates and the conduct of tests of patient's ability to breathe spontaneously (SBTs). While once daily screening is the current standard of care in national intensive care units (ICUs), it is poorly aligned with the 24/7 ICU care environment wherein a critically ill patients' status can change from hour to hour. Only one large trial has compared alternative SBT techniques \[T-piece vs PS (Pressure Support)\]. No trial has compared a strategy of more frequent screening to once daily screening or alternative SBT techniques. The presence of respiratory therapists (RTs) 24/7 in North American ICUs presents a unique opportunity to screen more frequently, conduct more frequent SBTs, and determine the optimal strategy to liberate critically ill adults from invasive ventilation. The investigators propose to conduct a pilot randomized trial in 100 critically ill adults comparing 'once daily' screening to 'at least twice daily' screening and PS vs. T-piece SBTs in 12 Canadian ICUs. In the proposed trial, the investigators will (i) assess their ability to recruit critically ill adults who can breathe spontaneously or initiate breaths on one of several commonly used modes of ventilation into the trial, (ii) evaluate clinician's ability to implement the trial as designed, (iii) assess current practices in sedation, analgesia and delirium management and timing of patient mobilization prior to conducting screening assessments, (iv) identify barriers (clinician, institutional) to enrolling patients, (v) characterize trial participants based on weaning difficulty, and (vi) obtain preliminary estimates of the impact of the alternative screening and SBT strategies on clinically important outcomes.
NCT01372787
This clinical trial studies the quality of life and care needs of patients with persistent or recurrent ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or peritoneal cancer. Studying quality of life in patients with cancer may help determine the effects of gynecologic cancer and may help improve the quality of life for future cancer survivors.
NCT01754038
This registry will perform prospective surveillance of participants attending collaborating Integrative Medicine clinic sites for clinical services. All decisions about medication use, treatments, visit frequency, assessment of tolerance, and other aspects of patient management will be left to the clinical providers' discretion. We will attempt to follow the participants in the PRIMIER Registry for up to 2 years. Essential data elements that capture patient-reported outcomes and measures of clinical activity will be obtained at approximately 2-month intervals for the first 6 months, then every 6 months through the end of year 2.
NCT00586924
A dose-escalation study to identify the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD), defined as the highest dose that can safely be given to a participant and establish the safest dose based on the highest tolerated dose for clinical testing.
