NCT00003666
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of irofulven in treating patients with relapsed or refractory non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT00003812
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining more than one drug and giving them before and with radiation therapy may be an effective treatment for limited-stage small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of chemotherapy plus radiation therapy in treating patients who have limited-stage small cell lung cancer.
NCT00033696
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining chemotherapy and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients who have limited-stage small cell lung cancer.
NCT00022087
RATIONALE: Zoledronate plus calcium and vitamin D may prevent bone loss in patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer. It is not yet known which regimen is more effective in preventing bone loss. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing two regimens of zoledronate plus calcium and vitamin D to see how well they work in preventing bone loss in women who are receiving adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer.
NCT00026130
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients who have locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
NCT00002575
RATIONALE: Less invasive types of surgery may help reduce the number of side effects and improve recovery. It is not yet known which type of surgery is more effective for colon cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of laparoscopic-assisted colectomy with open colectomy in treating patients who have colon cancer.
NCT01590888
Huntington disease (HD) is an inherited neurodegenerative disease which affects over 30,000 people in both the United States and Australia. HD is characterized by brain cell death that usually begins between the ages of 30 to 50, and results in motor, cognitive and behavioral signs and symptoms. While there are medications to help relieve some of the disease symptoms, there is no known treatment to address the cognitive impairment associated with HD. Normally occurring metals in the brain play a significant role in diseases such as Alzheimer disease and HD. PBT2 is a drug designed to interrupt interactions between these biological metals and target proteins in the brain, to prevent deterioration of brain cells. PBT2, has shown in animal models, and as well as in a small group of patients with Alzheimer's disease, it may improve cognition. There is some indication in animal models of HD, that the drug may improve motor function and control and reduce the amount of brain cell degeneration. PBT2-203 will evaluate how safe and well tolerated PBT2 is at a dose of 100 mg or 250 mg a day administered as oral daily capsules compared to a placebo over a six month treatment period. The trial will also measure whether there is an effect on cognitive abilities as well as other HD symptoms including motor and overall functioning of individuals with HD.
NCT00004183
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of capecitabine in treating patients who have malignant mesothelioma.
NCT00113620
The purpose of this study is to determine whether dextromethorphan (Neurodex) and quinidine are effective in the treatment of pain of diabetic neuropathy.
NCT01888965
This study is for patients with stage 4 colon cancer who have had initial chemotherapy or had surgery to remove metastases and patients with pancreas cancer, which has been surgically removed and are receiving adjuvant chemotherapy or is locally advanced and have already received chemotherapy and radiation. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of oral dovitinib in patients with advanced stage colorectal and pancreas. Effects include biomarker changes, progression-free survival and safety. Dovitinib will be taken by mouth for 5 days out of every week for up to 2 years.
NCT01597050
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, efficacy and tolerability of topical R333 ointment in Discoid Lupus Erythematosus (DLE) and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) patients with active discoid lesions.
NCT00058331
RATIONALE: Epoetin alfa may stimulate red blood cell production and treat anemia in patients with solid tumors. It is not yet known whether epoetin alfa given once a week is more effective than epoetin alfa given once every 3 weeks in treating anemia. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to study the effectiveness of epoetin alfa in treating anemia in patients who have solid tumors.
NCT01528917
This is a Natural History study to characterize key aspects of the clinical course of late onset Lysosomal Acid Lipase (LAL) Deficiency/ Cholesteryl Ester Storage Disease (CESD).
NCT00002676
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Combining radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells and may be an effective treatment for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy and whole-brain radiation therapy in patients with primary central nervous system non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
NCT00027573
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Peripheral stem cell transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy used to kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of chemotherapy followed by donor peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have metastatic or unresectable kidney cancer.
NCT02515994
Randomized, double-masked, controlled, 2-arm parallel group, multi-site, 3-month dispensing study of Johnson \& Johnson Vision Care, Inc. (JJVCI) Investigational contact lens, compared with a marketed, monthly replacement contact lens. Subjects will wear the JJVCI investigational contact lenses on a daily wear basis.
NCT02369705
Subjects with cardiac disorders will be tested in the sleep laboratory with a conventional full-night PSG recording along with WP 200/WP200U ambulatory sleep diagnostic device in a synchronized manner. The PSG data will be scored manually by a trained polysomnographic scorer, according to standard criteria for this clinical routine. The data obtained by the WP200/WP200U will be analyzed automatically for RDI, AHI, sleep stages, snoring (optional) and body position (optional), in addition to parameters specific to cardiac subjects. The analysis will be performed by the WP200/WP200U software (zzzPAT) and will be compared to the PSG's manual scoring which serves as a "Gold Standard".
NCT01325428

The study will include patients who have and have not failed prior trastuzumab treatment.
