NCT00514943
The primary objective of this study is to explore the efficacy of BIBW 2992 compared with cetuximab (Erbitux) in patients with metastatic or recurrent head and neck cancer after failure of platinum-containing therapy. In addition, the trial aims to clarify the influence of EGFR genotype on tumor response to the treatment regimens.
NCT01913106
The purpose of this study is to conduct a Phase I - II clinical trial to extend preclinical studies involving in situ HSV-tk + Valacyclovir gene therapy in combination with brachytherapy for recurrent prostate cancer. This will provide a novel therapeutic approach to prostate cancer and hopefully impact on the development of metastatic disease and the control of preexisting metastasis.
NCT00448409
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Trovax and GM-CSF in patients with prostate cancer.
NCT02369029
This is the first study where BAY1238097 is given to humans. Impact of the study is to evaluate if patients with advanced cancer show clinical benefit under the treatment with BET(Bromodomain and extraterminal domain family ) inhibitor.Patients with solid tumors (all comers) and lymphoma will receive the study drug treatment in an escalation scheme (no placebo group) to determine the safety, tolerability and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of BAY1238097. the relative bioavailability of Liquid Service Formulation and tablets will be determined After MTD is defined, patients with solid tumors (all comer, hepato cellular carcinoma, lung cancer, NUT(nuclear protein in testis)-midline carcinoma), melanoma and lymphoma will be enrolled A separate escalation scheme will be applied to patients with leucemias, and at the maximal tolerated dose, patients with AML amd multiple myeloma will be enrolled. the study will also assess the pharmacokinetics, biomarker status, pharmacodynamic parameters of BAY1238097 and tumor response to the treatment. BAY1238097 will be given twice weekly as oral application. Treatment will be stopped if the tumor continues to grow, if side effects occur, wich the patient cannot tolerate or if the patient decides to withdraw from the treatment.
NCT02049164
The purpose of this study is to determine the effective dose or dose range of AR08 in the treatment of VMS in menopausal females.
NCT01397747
The primary objective is to determine the sensitivity and specificity of the Exact Colorectal Cancer (CRC) screening test for colorectal cancer, using colonoscopy as the reference method. Lesions will be confirmed as malignant by histopathologic examination. The secondary objective is to compare the performance of the Exact CRC screening test to a commercially available FIT assay, both with respect to cancer and advanced adenoma. Lesions will be confirmed as malignant or precancerous by colonoscopy and histopathologic examination.
NCT00036270
To compare the effects of exemestane for 5 years versus tamoxifen and exemestane given sequentially over 5 years in the adjuvant treatment of postmenopausal women with early breast cancer. This Pfizer sponsored trial is part of an international collaboration of investigators conducting 7 similar yet independent studies in 9 countries. This study is designed to be part of the larger TEAM trial where the data from these 7 studies will be combined. A pre-specified analysis of the pooled data will be conducted.
NCT00042328
The purpose of this research is to study the pharmacology (how the body handles this drug) of valacyclovir in children receiving treatment for cancer. This study will last approximately 7 days.
NCT00044291
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the first line combination hormonal therapy of an experimental drug, atamestane, plus an FDA-approved drug, toremifene (Fareston®), is more effective than another approved drug, letrozole (Femara®), in delaying the growth of breast cancer in postmenopausal patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, and whether the side effects of the combination are different from the side effects of letrozole.
NCT00451451
To determine if treatment with BG00012 can decrease the number of MS relapses during a certain time period. Other goals of the study are to determine if, over time, BG00012 treatment can decrease the number of certain types of brain lesions commonly seen in MS patients and slow down the time it takes for MS to get worse. Other objectives of the study are to determine the safety and tolerability of BG00012, as well as the effect it may have on tests and evaluations used to assess MS. Additionally, glatiramer acetate is being used to compare its benefits and risks with placebo and BG00012.
NCT01600209
The objective of this study is to confirm the sensitivity and specificity of a stool DNA test for detection of colorectal cancer and pre-cancer.
NCT01874145
This is an open-label, randomized, multi-center, parallel-arm study to assess the safety and tolerability of a daily dose of Glatiramer Acetate (GA) 40 mg/mL three times a week (TIW) administered subcutaneously (SC) as compared to GA 20 mg/mL every day (QD) administered SC.
NCT01260168
The objective of this study is to confirm the sensitivity of a stool DNA test for detection of colorectal cancer and pre-cancer. Another objective is to provide anonymous, clinically characterized specimens for a bio-repository for future colorectal cancer-related test development.
NCT01144351
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of ELND002 in patients with relapsing forms of secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS) or relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS).
NCT00786747
The study investigators have developed an interactive multimedia computer program that provides personally tailored education about colorectal cancer screening in the user's preferred language (English or Spanish). In this study, the investigators will examine whether use of the computer program increases the number of Hispanic patients who receive colorectal cancer screening and lessens or eliminates the glaring disparity in screening between Hispanics and non-Hispanic whites.
NCT00526669
The study will determine if changes in expression of markers involved in the 5-FU pathways are associated with response to treatment with the combination of lapatinib and capecitabine independent of tumor erbB2 status.
NCT00272181
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, effectiveness, and recommended dose of Proxinium in North American patients with Squamous Cell Head and Neck Cancer
NCT02159573
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate relapse activity, as measured by the proportion of participants relapsed at 12 months, in participants with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) who transition from Tysabri (BG00002) to Tecfidera (BG00012) in the real-world setting. The secondary objective is to further evaluate relapse activity, defined as annualized relapse rate (ARR), hospitalization and intravenous corticosteroid use, during the first year of Tecfidera treatment following transition from Tysabri treatment.
NCT01064401
The primary study objective is to test the superiority of Daclizumab High Yield Process (DAC HYP) compared to interferon β 1a (IFN β-1a) in preventing multiple sclerosis (MS) relapse in participants with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis. The secondary study objectives are to test the superiority of DAC HYP compared to IFN β-1a in slowing functional decline and disability progression and maintaining quality of life in this participant population.
NCT00417209
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and the safety Larotaxel administered as single agent every 3 weeks to continuous administration of 5-FU every 3 weeks, in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer (non operable in a curative intent, locally recurrent or metastatic) previously treated with gemcitabine based therapy.
