NCT01905592
The purpose of this study is to compare progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with advanced/metastatic breast cancer who have a BRCA mutation when treated with niraparib as compared to those treated with physician's choice
NCT04857489
The purpose of this research is to find out how the T regulatory (Treg) cells control autoimmune response in multiple sclerosis. The investigators will identify Treg molecular markers and changes in function in patients with relapse remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). The investigators plan to study T regulatory immune cells in the blood of RRMS patients and control subjects to examine how Treg immune cells' deficient function may be involved in the development of mulitple sclerosis.
NCT03735823
Since the last submission, the investigator have further characterized the potential of IL--11 to induce encephalitogenic CD4+IL--17A+, IL--21+ and GM--CSF+ cells, which upon passive transfer induced severe RREAE with IL--17A+CCR6+ CD4+ cell, neutrophil, CD8+ and B--cell accumulation within the CNS (manuscript submitted for publication). These findings confirmed our hypothesis and further characterization of the IL--11--induced encephalitogenic CD4+ cells will be performed as planned in the grant proposal

NCT01851434
Background: \- Optic neuritis often is a symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS). Many people who experience optic neuritis are later diagnosed with MS. MS disease activity seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans is often greater than that seen in tests given during regular doctor's visits. Even though MRI is a helpful tool for studying optic neuritis and MS, more information is needed on how MS symptoms show up on MRI scans. Researchers want to use MRI scans to track changes in the optic nerve after an optic neuritis episode. This approach will help them study the relationship between optic neuritis and MS. Objectives: \- To collect more information about the relationship between optic neuritis and multiple sclerosis. Eligibility: * Individuals between 18 and 50 years of age who have new optic neuritis. * Individuals between 18 and 50 years of age who have new symptoms of MS other than optic neuritis. * Healthy volunteers between 18 and 50 years of age. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. They may provide blood or urine samples. * Participants with optic neuritis or other MS symptoms will have a baseline study visit. They will have a physical exam and full eye exam. To look for signs of MS, they will have evoked potential tests to see how the body responds to stimulation. They will also have an MRI scan to study any changes in the brain and optic nerves. * After the first visit, participants will have steroid treatment for 5 days for the optic neuritis. * Additional study visits will be given 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after the baseline visit. The tests from the first visit, including the MRI scans, will be repeated at these visits. * Healthy volunteers will have a baseline study visit. They will have a physical exam and full eye exam. They will have evoked potential tests to see how the body responds to stimulation. They will also have an MRI scan to study any changes in the brain and optic nerves. * Healthy volunteers will have additional study visits 2 and 11 months after the baseline visit. The tests from the first visit, including the MRI scans, will be repeated at these visits.
NCT02723864
Background: The drug cisplatin treats certain cancers when given with other chemotherapy drugs. Researchers think combining cisplatin with 2 other drugs could block proteins that support cancer cell growth. The other drugs are ABT-888 (veliparib) and M6620 (VX-970). They want to test if this drug combination slows the growth of cancer and is safe. Objectives: To test the safety and tolerability of VX-970 and veliparib combined with cisplatin in people with advanced refractory solid tumors. To determine the maximum tolerated dose of these drugs. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with: * Solid tumors that have progressed after treatment or for which no treatment exists * Normal organ and marrow function Design: Participants will be screened with: * Medical history * Physical exam * Computed tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) * Blood and urine tests Participants will get the study drugs in 3-week cycles: * Cisplatin in a vein on 1 or 2 days * VX-970 in a vein on 2 days * Veliparib by mouth twice a day on 6 days In each cycle, participants will have 5 physical exams and blood tests 5 times. In some cycles, participants will have CT scans or MRIs. In cycle 1, participants may have 2 tumor biopsies. A small piece of tissue is removed by needle. Participants will keep a study diary. They will write when they take the drugs and if they have side effects. Participants will stay in the study as long as they tolerate the drugs and their tumors are not getting worse. Participants will have a phone call about a month after their last dose.
NCT04730349
The purpose of this study is to first, in Part A, assess the safety, tolerability and drug levels of Bempegaldesleukin (BEMPEG) in combination with nivolumab and then, in Part B, to estimate the preliminary efficacy in children, adolescents and young adults with recurrent or treatment-resistant cancer.
NCT00710970
The major objective of this two-stage phase II study is to determine whether tamoxifen is deserving of further study in metastatic bladder cancer. Tamoxifen is expected to function as a cytostatic (and not cytotoxic) agent, and may produce more disease stability than regression. Sustained stable disease is considered to be clinically important and the more likely event. Hence, 4-month freedom from progression is chosen as the primary end-point instead of response rate. Freedom from progression is defined as the period from start of therapy to the time of objective radiologic progression. A total of 25 subjects will be enrolled, 15 during stage 1 and 10 during stage 2 of a two-stage minimax design phase II study. Pre-therapy evaluation (within 3 weeks of initiation of therapy): * History and physical examination (H and P) * Performance status (PS) assessment * CBC (complete blood counts) * CMP (complete metabolic profile) * Pregnancy test (in women younger than 50) * Computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest, abdomen and pelvis * Bone scan if bone pain or raised alkaline phosphatase * Biopsy (may use previous biopsy specimen) * Samples of plasma from the routine CBC and CMP will be banked indefinitely for future biomarker studies at the Scott Department of Urology. Treatment plan: Therapy will be administered as an outpatient. Tamoxifen is administered at 20 mg/day as a single daily oral dose. Clinical assessment of patients by a history and physical examination will be performed every 4 weeks (one cycle). Objective radiological assessment of response will be made every 8 weeks or earlier if clinically indicated. A CT (computerized tomography) scan of the abdomen, pelvis and chest will be performed at baseline and every 2 cycles. A response is confirmed by repeating the scans in 4 weeks. Bone scan is performed if the patient complains of new bone pain or has raised alkaline phosphatase. A radiologist who is blinded to the treatment regimen reads the scans. The RECIST criteria are used to define response. Tamoxifen is continued until progressive disease or intolerable side effects occur.
