NCT01580696
Folate binding protein (FBP) is highly over-expressed in breast, ovarian and endometrial cancers and is the source of immunogenic peptides (E39) that can stimulate cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) to recognize and destroy FBP-expressing cancer cells in the laboratory. The purpose of this study is to test whether a peptide-based vaccine consisting of the E39 peptide mixed with the FDA-approved immunoadjuvant granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is safe and effective at inducing an in vivo peptide-specific immune response. Furthermore, the investigators intend to determine the best dose of the vaccine to utilize to produce this immunity most efficiently. The investigators will determine whether immunity to FBP will prevent clinical recurrence. Additionally, the investigators will compare these results with results from a trial utilizing the E75 peptide (from the HER2/neu protein) in ovarian and endometrial cancer patients in preparation for studying a combination vaccine.
NCT02333058
The primary goal of this study is to evaluate an alternative myeloablative, but reduced toxicity conditioning regimen in children, to describe the safety and efficacy of intravenous (i.v.) Treosulfan administered as part of a standardised Fludarabine-containing conditioning and to contribute to the current pharmacokinetic model to be able to finally give age (or body surface area) dependent dose recommendations. The treatment regimens given in the protocol MC-FludT.17/M are based on sufficient clinical safety and efficacy data. Considering the vital indication for allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation of the selected patient population, the risk-benefit assessment is therefore reasonably in favour of the study conduct.
NCT03436771
This study will provide long-term follow-up for patients who have received treatment with a Juno CAR T-cell product in a Juno-sponsored clinical trial. In this study, patients will be followed for up to 15 years after their last dose of Juno CAR T cells for evaluation of delayed adverse events, presence of persisting CAR T-cell vector sequences, presence of replication-competent retrovirus (RCR) or lentivirus (RCL), and survival.
NCT02236936
Prevention of critical weight loss. In patients with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck (SCCHN) weight loss is a relevant clinical problem during radiotherapy and might result in higher treatment related toxicity and discontinuation of a potential curative treatment. Thus the investigators want to evaluate the efficacy of overnight parenteral nutritional (PN) support in patients with SCCHN treated with curative radiotherapy (RTX) in combination with Cetuximab (E) or Cisplatin (P).
NCT02731898
A prospective, international and multicenter, non interventional single-cohort study, which will enroll consecutive adult patients who have received mechanical ventilation (invasive and noninvasive ventilation) for at least 12 hours during a 1-month period, and will follow each patient for the duration of mechanical ventilation, up to 28 days. The main objectives will be to analyze the mortality and clinical outcomes in ventilated patients and secondly, to evaluate the practices of liberation from mechanical ventilation, the failure of non invasive ventilation in the ICU, and to analyze the clinical outcomes in specific populations of critically ill patients with the need of mechanical ventilation.

Objective. Evaluate the miR-126 expression and its target VCAM-1, in the skin of patients with ACD to nickel. Methods. Fifteen patients with positive patch test to nickel were included, and the expression of miR-126 and VCAM-1 was evaluated by RT-qPCR.
NCT02783651
A retrospective chart review study of Philadelphia chromosome-negative R/R ALL patients in the US.
NCT03417427
It is often impossible to find therapeutic target in intermediate-risk AML, so it is very important to select appropriate chemotherapy protocol to eliminate minimal residual disease (MRD) in these AML patients. Recent studies demonstrated that leukemia microenvironment is the shelter nich for leukemia stem cells and the essential reason for impossibly eliminating MRD. Demethylation drug not only prove the effect of chemotherapy, but also change leukemia microenvironment through epigenetics modification. Both of them will result in eliminating MRD in patients with AML. The investigators designed a multicenter randomized control clinical trail to evaluate the effect of demethylation drug combined with chemotherapy in AML patients with intermediate-risk factors after hematological complete remission. Efficacy will be evaluated through MRD detected by flow cytometry every 1 month. Continuous negative MRD indicates a good prognosis. The patients with continuous negative MRD can select auto-HSCT or consolidation chemotherapy, those with continuous positive MRD should be considered as candidates of allo-HSCT. Overall survival and relapse free survival will be recorded after follow-up every 3 months. It will provide a basis for precision therapy and a new way for designing a novel protocol for intermediate-risk AML. This clinical trail will benefit to the AML patients with intermediate-risk factors.
NCT04351022
This is a single center, open-label phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of targeted CD38 chimeric antigen receptor engineered T cell immunotherapy (CART) in the treatment of CD38 positive relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT00966472
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of rosuvastatin that can be given in combination with standard erlotinib treatment in patients with advanced incurable squamous cell cancer and NSCLC.
NCT04070807
This is a multi-center retrospective observational study. Every patient with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) treated with anti-B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) treatment outside clinical trial from 1st January 2015 up to 01 April 2019 may be included in this study. No additional drug/procedures/patient visits in comparison with the usual clinical practice are planned for the study. The decision to treat patient with ant-BCL2 inhibitors is made by the physician based on his clinical judgment, independently from the decision to include the patient in this study.
NCT04355806
This project is to assess the immunogenicity, safety and overall survival impact of intramuscular injection of trivalent influenza vaccine in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor treatment.
NCT04352088
This study aims to investigate immune mechanisms and phenotypes and endotypes of allergic airway diseases - allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma. Pathogenesis of these diseases are not fully investigated yet. Patients with the same disease have different dominant symptoms, course of the disease and response to treatment. Moreover, there is a hypothesis about united airway disease suggesting that allergic rhinitis and allergic asthma is different manifestation of the same disease. This led to assumption of phenotypes and endotypes. This classification which still is not unified can let to prescribe personalized treatment for every patient.
NCT03130192
Worldwide, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most common causes of cancer mortality. Also, the first leading cause of death is lung cancer in Taiwan 2012. Most patients are diagnosed at advanced stages and their median survival with supportive care is only 3-6 months. The common regimens used on advanced NSCLC treatment consists of platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, the survival benefit of which is able to extend the survival to approximately 10 months. However, disease and treatment-related toxicities in cancer patients may result in fatigue and interfered quality of life (QoL). According to the others reports, eight QoL areas including physical functioning, fatigue, pain, and appetite loss have been showed a statistically significant association with survival rate of NSCLC patients. Cancer-related fatigue (CRF), an indicator of QoL, has been reported as the most frequent and distressing toxicity of lung cancer chemotherapy. Proposed criteria for CRF have been adopted for inclusion in the International Statistical Classification of Disease and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM). Therefore, more in-depth researches on CRF are needed in Taiwan. In addition, electrolyte disturbance like hyponatremia has been reported to be counted as one of the many contributing factors for fatigue in palliative care patients and associated with poorer overall survival rate (OS) in lung cancer. Thus, the correlation between CRF and electrolyte possibly would be a strong link for physician to improve the QoL and survival rate of NSCLC patients. The objective of this observational study is to evaluate the correlation between CRF, survival and physiological factors in NSCLC patients under chemotherapy. The study will compare the effect of QoL and CRF on survival with or without CRF treatment and investigate the correlation between the variation of CRF and physiological factors which have been examined and recorded on medical record under clinical practice. These results will supply physicians with more understanding about CRF, and help them to enhance the quality on lung cancer care to being perfected in the future.
NCT03499834
In this study, whole blood is drawn from the patient to be used to grow Immune Killer Cells (IKC). After proliferation, the IKC will be infused back into the patient to treat the cancer for a total of 24 weekly treatments. Possible adverse reaction can include slight fever and headache.
NCT01698580
This study is a clinical trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of a multifactorial falls prevention program in reducing the rate of falls. A multifactorial falls prevention program consisting of an individualized medical management of the modifiable risk factors, a progressive on-site body balance exercise plus a home-based exercise program, an educational/behavioral intervention and a fall prevention booklet will reduce the number of falls and fall rates when compared with usual care.
NCT01636609
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of cytarabine and azacitidine and how well they work when giving together with tosedostat in treating older participants with acute myeloid leukemia or high risk myelodysplastic syndrome. Tosedostat and azacitidine may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine, 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. It is not yet known whether giving tosedostat and cytarabine or azacitidine may work better in treating participants with acute myeloid leukemia or high risk myelodysplastic syndrome.
NCT02573363
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of selinexor when give together with standard chemotherapy, high dose cytarabine and mitoxantrone hydrochloride, in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Selinexor may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and mitoxantrone hydrochloride, 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 selinexor together with standard chemotherapy may be a better treatment for patients with acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT01829711
Background: \- Moxetumomab pasudotox is an experimental non-chemotherapy cancer treatment drug. It targets CD22, a molecule on the surface of essentially all hairy cell leukemia cells. Moxetumomab pasudotox binds to CD22, goes into the cell, and releases a toxin which kills the cell. In a phase I trial it had activity in relapsed/refractory hairy cell leukemia with safety profile supporting further clinical study (http://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22355053). This is a phase III multicenter trial designed to confirm these results.
NCT00562328
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab and alemtuzumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Colony-stimulating factors, such as GM-CSF, may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood. Giving monoclonal antibody therapy together with GM-CSF may be an effective treatment for early-stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving rituximab and alemtuzumab together with GM-CSF and to see how well it works in treating patients with early-stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
