NCT00326898
This randomized phase III trial studies sunitinib malate to see how well it works compared to sorafenib tosylate or placebo in treating patients with kidney cancer that has been removed by surgery. Sunitinib malate and sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sunitinib malate or sorafenib tosylate after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It is not yet known whether sunitinib malate is more effective than sorafenib tosylate or placebo in treating kidney cancer.
NCT02248805
The primary goal of this Phase 1 study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of MGD007 and establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and schedule of MGD007 administered to patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma. Pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and the anti-tumor activity of MGD007 will also be assessed.
NCT01391143
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of MGA271 when given by intravenous (IV) infusion to patients with refractory cancer. The study will also evaluate how long MGA271 stays in the blood and how long it takes for it to leave the body, what is the highest dose that can safely be given, and whether it may have an effect on tumors.
NCT00321958
The purpose of this study is to confirm the effectiveness and safety of a new medical device which sprays liquid nitrogen through an upper endoscope (cryotherapy) to treat Barrett's esophagus with high-grade dysplasia and early esophageal cancer. It is hypothesized that this treatment will remove the abnormal lining of the esophagus and allow the normal esophageal lining to return.
NCT00617708
This randomized phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of monoclonal antibody therapy when given together with gemcitabine hydrochloride and erlotinib hydrochloride and to see how well they work compared with giving gemcitabine hydrochloride and erlotinib hydrochloride alone as first-line therapy in treating patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Giving erlotinib hydrochloride and gemcitabine hydrochloride together with monoclonal antibody therapy may kill more tumor cells.
NCT04015115
Opioid addiction, also referred to as opioid use disorder, among young people is a growing health concern for patients and their families. Overdose deaths related to opioids have been steadily increasing in number and are at an all-time high. Opioid addiction has serious consequences such as getting HIV, legal problems, relationship problems, and unemployment. Currently, there are two standard of care office-based medications available to treat opioid use disorder, buprenorphine and naltrexone. Naltrexone has been available for several years as an extended-release monthly injectable formulation, and more recently buprenorphine is as well. Both of these medications are typically administered in the medical office setting. Long-acting injection medications like these help people that may otherwise forget doses, skip doses, and relapse. MAT that are FDA-approved such as these paired with counseling can help sustain recovery, but retention to treatment is a concern, especially among young adults. Many barriers arise for attending office-based treatment (e.g., transportation) often resulting in falling away from treatment and relapsing. Involvement of family members is often challenged by health care provider concerns about patient privacy, and existing relationship strain between patients and their families. The Youth Opioid Recovery Support (YORS) treatment delivery model hopes to address barriers to retention to substance treatment among those with opioid use disorder who have already decided to get treatment with either extended-release naltrexone or extended-release buprenorphine. The YORS model involves: 1) home-delivery of standard-of-care medication and individual/family counseling services; 2) assertive outreach efforts by the treatment team; and 3) contingency management incentives upon receipt of treatment. This service model has already shown promise in addressing barriers to treatment retention particularly difficulties with medication adherence in patients who were prescribed monthly injectable extended-release naltrexone. Now that extended-release buprenorphine is also available, broader MAT options provided in an assertive service delivery model may maximize treatment retention and recovery outcomes. Further, transitioning participants from home-based receipt of treatment to clinic-based care begins the translation to sustainable health care.
NCT04599725
This pilot study is designed to obtain data on the safety, acceptability, and feasibility of providing abortion by direct-to-patient telemedicine and mail.
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.
NCT02982941
This study is a Phase 1, open-label, dose escalation and cohort expansion trial designed to characterize the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, immunogenicity and preliminary antitumor activity of enoblituzumab administered IV on a weekly schedule for up to 96 doses (approximately 2 years) in children and young adults with B7-H3-expressing relapsed or refractory malignant solid tumors.
NCT00698815
This randomized phase II trial studies pemetrexed disodium and sunitinib malate to compare how well they work when given alone or together as second-line therapy in treating patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as pemetrexed disodium, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Sunitinib malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether pemetrexed disodium and sunitinib malate are more effective when given alone or together in treating non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT03445520
In this study, the investigators will randomize 20 families per site (across 4 sites) to be in the BBB Transition Passport Only Group or BBB Intervention Group. Both groups will receive the BBB Transition Passport, which include the Transition Checklist, Student Snapshot, Parent/Caregiver Guide, and Student Guide. In addition to receiving the Transition Passport, the BBB Intervention Group will also receive coaching support to implement these resources. This coaching will include a member of the research team assigned as a coach for each family. This coach will introduce the resources to the family, briefly teach them fundamental information about the transition process, provide brief coaching phone calls, and guide parents in using the tools and requesting help from the child's provider(s). The investigators will be testing the differences between these two groups in terms of: 1) quality of the transition as reported by the parent and teacher, 2) self-efficacy of the parent during the transition process, 3) child school engagement and behavior during the transition as rated by the teacher and parent, and 4) the quality of the child's team to communicate about information important to the child's transition.
NCT03180307
This is a phase 3, randomized, multi-center, single dose, open label, pivotal study in patients diagnosed with, or with high clinical suspicion of, ovarian cancer scheduled to undergo primary surgical cytoreduction, interval debulking, or recurrent ovarian cancer surgery.
NCT02021279
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of MatriStem Pelvic Floor Matrix as compared to native tissue repair for the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse. Patients are evaluated throughout a 3 year follow-up period.
NCT00096200
Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth and by stopping blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving sorafenib together with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving sorafenib together with paclitaxel and carboplatin works in treating patients with recurrent ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer. (Sorafenib only group closed as of 10/10/2008).
NCT03669588
A randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, multicenter Phase 3 trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, quality of life and impact on normal daily activities of ARGX-113 in patients with gMG.
NCT01660243
This study is being conducted to investigate the efficacy of MT-9938 compared with placebo after 2 weeks, to continue to evaluate efficacy for an additional 6 weeks, and to explore the effect of a reduction in itching intensity on health-related Quality of Life(QoL) domains, especially those which recent research suggests have a positive correlation with overall survival for this patient group. The study will consist of the following phases: Screening (1 to 2 weeks), Run in (1 week), double-blind Treatment (8 weeks), Washout (1 week) culminating in a Follow-up Visit (1 week after the last dose).
NCT02381314
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of enoblituzumab (MGA271) in combination with Yervoy (ipilimumab) when given to patients with B7-H3-expressing melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other B7-H3 expressing cancers. The study will also evaluate what is the best dose of enoblituzumab to use when given with ipilimumab. Assessments will also be done to see how the drug acts in the body (pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics) and to evaluate potential anti-tumor activity of enoblituzumab in combination with ipilimumab.
NCT02626507
This is a dose-escalation Phase Ib clinical trial in 18 patients with newly diagnosed Stage I-IV ER+/HER2- breast cancer, with the primary cancer in place. These patients have not received prior therapy for their breast cancer and intend to undergo surgery after four cycles of therapy. This is an open-label study, and investigators and subjects are not blinded to the treatment. The reason for using an open-label study design is because this is a dose-escalation trial, and the investigators need to determine the potential toxicity before a decision can be made to continue the dose escalation procedures. The assignment of patients will not be randomized, as this is a dose-escalation trial.
NCT02370706
This is a phase Ib study with the primary purpose is to estimate the MTD and/or RDE for the triple combination of PIM447, formerly LGH447, plus ruxolitinib and LEE011 as well as for the doublets, PIM447 plus ruxolitinib, and LEE011 plus ruxolitinib, in patients with myelofibrosis (MF). Each regimen will be assessed for safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamic effects, and preliminary anti-myelofibrosis activity, including changes in spleen volume, JAK2V617F allele burden, and hematologic response.
