NCT01228890
In this 5-year, two-site randomized clinical trial, we propose to test the efficacy of the CATCH-IT primary care/Internet based depression prevention intervention against Attention Monitoring Psychoeducation (AMPE) in preventing the onset of depressive episodes in an intermediate to high risk group of adolescents aged 13-17. We plan to (a) identify high risk adolescents based on elevated scores on the PHQ-A, a screening measure of depressive symptoms; (b) recruit 400 (200 per site) of these at-risk adolescents to be randomized into either the CATCH-IT or the AMPE group; (c) assess outcomes at 2, 8, 12, 18, and 24 months post intake on measures of depressive symptoms, depressive diagnoses, other mental disorders, and on measures of role impairment in education, quality of life, attainment of educational milestones, and family functioning; and (d) conduct exploratory analyses to examine the effectiveness of this intervention program, moderators of protection, and potential ethnic and cultural differences in intervention response.
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.
NCT00094055
This is a Phase 2 study being conducted at multiple centers in the United States. Patients having thyroid cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (i.e., metastatic) are eligible to participate. Patients must have disease that was not controlled by previous treatment with radioactive iodine (131I) or not be good candidates for such treatment. The purpose of the study is to test whether the angiogenesis inhibitor AG-013736 is an effective treatment for metastatic thyroid cancer as shown by the number of patients in the study who experience significant and durable tumor shrinkage.
NCT00048659
The purpose of this study is to determine if patients who take YM598 in addition to mitoxantrone and prednisone (standard therapy) experience improvement in the pain associated with prostate cancer metastases in the bone.
NCT00129961
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of sirolimus on the prevention of new non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) in kidney transplant recipients.
NCT00034957
The primary goal of the study is to evaluate an investigational drug's effectiveness as a treatment for Non small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
NCT00454649
To determine the best dose of this investigational agent AG-013736 in combination with various standard of care treatments for advanced solid tumors.
NCT00246571
The purpose of this study is to compare progression free survival for SU011248 \[sutent (sunitinib malate)\] versus standard of care therapy in patients with previously treated, advanced, triple receptor negative (ER, PR, HER2) locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer.
NCT01228760
The purpose of this dose escalation study is to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the recommended Phase 2 dose of ASG-5ME in subjects with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).
NCT00076011
The primary purpose of this protocol is to determine the activity of AG 013736 in patients with metastatic renal cell cancer who have received 1 prior cytokine-based therapy.
NCT00097721
The purpose of this study is to determine if E7389 is a safe and effective treatment for advanced/metastatic breast cancer.
NCT01323933
Analysis of safety, tolerability, and PK data will provide information that will guide future development of AB0024.
NCT01234701
The purpose of this multicenter study is to evaluate the agreement among expert radiologists in interpreting magnetic resonance images (MRI) assessing common primary liver tumours in non-cirrhotic patients.
NCT00592839
This is a multi-center study to evaluate the effects of SCE-B on nocturnal vasomotor symptoms. Study duration will be approximately 16 weeks; this includes a 4-week screening period and approximately 5 scheduled clinic visits. Participants will receive one of two strengths of SCE-B tablets plus matching placebo or placebo only, and will have a physical and gynecological exams that may include transvaginal ultrasound, endometrial biopsy and a pap smear. Participants will be asked to wear a monitoring device for a portion of the study and be asked to complete a daily dairy.
NCT00067314
This international study will study how metastatic breast cancer responds to the investigational drug treatment, what are the side effects of the investigational drug when given to women with metastatic breast cancer and how often do these side effects occur. The study will also analyze how fast investigational drug and its breakdown products are cleared from the blood in these patients.
NCT00313781
To test the efficacy of CP-751,871 combined with docetaxel and prednisone in the treatment of prostate cancer that is refractory to hormone therapy
NCT00319254
The purpose of this study is to determine if SKI-606 (Bosutinib) is effective in the treatment of advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Patients must have current Stage IIIB, IIIC or IV breast cancer and have progressed after 1 to 3 prior chemotherapy regimens.
NCT00046800
The purpose of this study is to estimate the efficacy and safety of OSI-211 and topotecan in patients with relapsed epithelial ovarian cancer.
NCT00083187
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as VNP40101M and hydroxyurea, work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Hydroxyurea may help VNP40101M kill more cancer cells by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drug. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving VNP40101M with hydroxyurea works in treating patients with acute myelogenous leukemia or high-risk myelodysplasia.
NCT00600535
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (how the drug concentrations change over time) of capsule and tablet formulations of CB7630 (abiraterone acetate) taken with and without food in patients with prostate cancer.
