NCT01013649
This randomized phase II-R/III trial studies gemcitabine hydrochloride with or without erlotinib hydrochloride followed by the same chemotherapy regimen with or without radiation therapy and capecitabine or fluorouracil in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that was removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, capecitabine, and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving chemotherapy together with or without erlotinib hydrochloride and/or radiation therapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It is not yet known whether chemotherapy is more effective when given with or without erlotinib hydrochloride and/or radiation therapy in treating pancreatic cancer.
NCT06141486
The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study is to determine the efficacy of frexalimab in delaying the disability progression and the safety up to 36 months double-blind administration of study intervention compared to placebo in male and female participants with nrSPMS (aged 18 to 60 years at the time of enrollment). People diagnosed with nrSPMS are eligible for enrollment as long as they meet all the inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. Study details include: * This event-driven study will end when the target number of 6-month cCDP events is achieved, and the study is expected to last 43 months from randomization of the first participant to the common study end. * The number of scheduled visits will be up to 25 (including 3 follow-up visits) with a visit frequency of every month for the first 6 months and then every 3 months. * If the prespecified number of events for 6-month cCDP is not reached by V21/W180, scheduled visits will continue every 3 months.
NCT03007147
This randomized phase III trial studies how well imatinib mesylate works in combination with two different chemotherapy regimens in treating patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Imatinib mesylate has been shown to improve outcomes in children and adolescents with Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) ALL when given with strong chemotherapy, but the combination has many side effects. This trial is testing whether a different chemotherapy regimen may work as well as the stronger one but have fewer side effects when given with imatinib. The trial is also testing how well the combination of chemotherapy and imatinib works in another group of patients with a type of ALL that is similar to Ph+ ALL. This type of ALL is called "ABL-class fusion positive ALL", and because it is similar to Ph+ ALL, is thought it will respond well to the combination of agents used to treat Ph+ ALL.
NCT02871726
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common non-dermatologic malignancy in U.S. men. Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy is a commonly used diagnostic procedure for men with an elevated serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level and/or abnormal digital rectal examination (DRE). It is estimated that more than 1 million TRUS-guided prostate biopsies are performed annually in the U.S. alone. However, a freehand TRUS-guided systematic biopsy (SB) procedure has significant limitations. First, freehand biopsy cores are often spatially clustered, rather than uniformly distributed, and do not accurately follow the recommended, sextant template. Second, a freehand TRUS-guided biopsy does not allow precise mapping of the biopsy cores within the prostate. Targeted biopsy (TB) using special devices emerged to help the physicians guide the biopsy using multiparametric MRI (mpMRI). TB cores yield a higher cancer detection rate of clinically significance PCa than SB cores, but TB cores also miss a large number of clinically significant PCa that are detected by SB. Accordingly, TB is commonly performed concurrently with SB (TB+SB procedure).
NCT05780814
The investigators propose a randomized controlled clinical trial in 250 women with a history of early stage breast cancer who are overweight or obese with insomnia to test whether a brief, cognitive-behavioral intervention for insomnia (CBT-I) prior to behavioral weight loss (CBT-I+BWL) is superior to a sleep education control (EDU) condition followed by behavioral weight loss (EDU+BWL). The investigators will measure outcomes at baseline, 8 weeks (after completing CBT-I or EDU and prior to BWL), and at 3, 6, and 12 months.
NCT06019182
This observational natural history study will follow individuals with MEHMO (Mental disability, Epileptic seizure, Hypopituitarism/Hypogenitalism, Microcephaly, Obesity) syndrome or an eIF2-pathway related disorder, who have symptoms such as intellectual delay, seizures, abnormal hormone and blood sugar levels, and decreased motor skills. No current treatment for these conditions is available. A major impediment to the testing of potential therapeutic interventions is the lack of well-defined outcome measures. This protocol seeks to identify biochemical and clinical markers to monitor disease progression, and better understand the natural history of these conditions. Any person diagnosed with MEHMO syndrome or related conditions, who can travel to the NIH Clinical Center can participate in this study. The study involves: * General health assessment and evaluation * Imaging studies * Laboratory tests * Collection of blood, urine, spinal fluid, skin biopsy.
NCT06507748
Background: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a genetic condition that causes tumors to grow along the nerves in the skin, brain, and other parts of the body. People with NF1 often have pain and may experience other abnormal sensations like itching, numbness, or tingling. These symptoms can affect their daily life. Researchers want to learn more about these symptoms and find better ways to measure pain in people with NF1. Objective: To learn if a device called the AlgometRx Nociometer(Registered trademark) is effective in measuring pain or other abnormal sensations in people with NF1. Eligibility: People aged 1 year and older with NF1. Design: Individuals can have up to 3 assessments completed in person. Each assessment may last up to 1.0 to 1.5 hours. Individuals will be screened. They will complete questionnaires about their health and how bad their pain is. If participants are having blood drawn for other reasons, some additional samples may be used in this study. The AlgometRx Nociometer includes an electrode that will be placed onto a finger or a toe. The electrode will send non-painful electrical signals to activate nerves in the finger or toe. At the same time, a camera will be used to record changes in the pupil of the eye. The test will be done on all 4 of the participant s limbs; however, researchers may skip 1 or more limbs for various reasons. This test takes about 10 seconds to complete with at least a one-minute rest between testing different limbs. Individuals will be asked to do a 2nd assessment with the AlgometRx Nociometer that may be done 1 hour later but no more than 72 hours after the first assessment. Participants who will be returning for another visit can opt to do a 3rd assessment that will be done at least 4 weeks but not more than 18 months after the 1st....

NCT02942264
Background: Zotiraciclib (TG02) is an investigational drug that penetrates the blood-brain barrier and might treat brain tumors. Temozolomide (TMZ) is a drug used to treat brain tumors. Objective: To find out if Zotiraciclib (TG02) is safe, and to find out if it in combination with TMZ is as effective as TMZ alone in people with brain tumors. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with a brain tumor that has progressed after standard treatment Design: In phase I part, the Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design will be used to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Zotiraciclib (TG02) for Arm 1 (dose dense TMZ) and Arm 2 (metronomic TMZ) independently. Then a randomized cohort expansion compared progression free survival at 4 months (PFS4) of the two arms for an efficient determination of a TMZ schedule to combine with Zotiraciclib at MTD. In Phase II part, a Bayesian design based on posterior probability will be used to monitor efficacy. Participants will be screened with: * Medical history * Physical exam * Blood and urine tests * Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain if they have not had one in 14 days * Heart test * Tissue sample from prior surgeries Participants will take Zotiraciclib (TG02) plus TMZ by mouth in 28-day cycles. * Some will take TMZ for 7 days on and 7 days off. Others will take it every day. * They will all take Zotiraciclib (TG02) three days before Cycle 1, and then on four days during every cycle. * They will all get treatment to prevent vomiting and diarrhea before and for 24 hours after each Zotiraciclib (TG02) dose. * They will all keep a diary of when they take the drugs and their symptoms. Participants will have study visits. These include: * Physical exam, heart test, quality of life questionnaire, brain MRI, and urine tests every 4 weeks * Blood tests every 2 weeks Participants will continue treatment until their disease gets worse or they have intolerable side effects. Participants will also be enrolled in another protocol to test molecular markers for their brain tumor.
NCT06546553
The purpose of this study is to learn about the: * safety (the effect of the study medicine on the participant's body), * effects of the study medicine alone or in combination with sasanlimab - * the best amount of the study medicine. This study is seeking participants who have solid tumors (An abnormal mass of tissue) that: * have advanced (cancer that does not disappear or stay away with treatment) or * are metastatic (has spread to other parts of the body). This includes (but limited to) the following cancer types: * Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): It's a type of lung cancer where the cells grow slowly but often spread to other parts of the body. * Colorectal Cancer (CRC): This is a disease where cells in the colon or rectum grow out of control. * Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC): This is a cancer that starts in the kidney. All participants in this study will receive the study medication (PF-07826390) as an IV infusion (given directly into a vein) at the study once every four weeks in 28 day cycles. The study participants depending on the group enrolled in, will receive the study medication (PF-07826390 alone or in combination with other anti-cancer medications (sasanlimab). Sasanlimab is given as a shot under the skin every 4 weeks. Participants can continue to take the study medication (PF-07826390) until their cancer is no longer responding. Participants who are taking sasanlimab may receive it for up to 2 years. The study will look at the experiences of people receiving the study medicines. This will help see if the study medicines are safe and effective. Participants will be involved in this study for up to 4 years. During this time, participants will have a study visit every week. The participants after stopping the study medicine (at about 2 years) will be followed for another two years to see how the participants are doing.

NCT05891496
The study is being conducted to understand how the medicine, semaglutide, affects the immune system and other biological processes in people with Alzheimer's disease. Semaglutide is a medicine that doctors can prescribe in some countries for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and excess body weight. This study will help us understand whether semaglutide can also be used for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The study will last for about 77 weeks. In the first 12 weeks of treatment, participants will either get semaglutide (active medicine) or placebo (inactive dummy medicine). Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. In the following 52 weeks of treatment, all participants taking part in the study will get semaglutide. Participants must have a study partner, who is willing to take part in the study. Participants will get study medicine in a pen injector. The study partner will need to inject the study medicine into the skin of participant's stomach, thigh or upper arm once every week.
