The primary objective of this sub-study, 2019-01B, is to collect blood specimens for research use in the development and validation of a blood-based test for colorectal cancer (CRC).
NCT02682927
Study 1 and Study 3 are the prospective, merged analyses of 2 identical double-blind, placebo-controlled studies, ZX008-1501 and ZX008-1502, to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of ZX008 when used as adjunctive therapy in pediatric and young adult subjects with Dravet syndrome. Study 1501 and Study 1502 were conducted in parallel; Study 1501 was conducted at approximately 30 study sites in North America; Study 1502 was conducted at approximately 30 study sites in Europe, Asia and Australia. Upon completion of the Baseline Period after initial Screening and Baseline charting of seizure frequency, subjects who qualified for the studies were randomized (1:1:1) in a double-blind manner to receive either 1 of 2 doses of ZX008 (0.2 mg/kg/day or 0.8 mg/kg/day; maximum dose: 30 mg/day) or placebo. Randomization was stratified by age group (\< 6 years, ≥6 to 18 years) to achieve balance across treatment arms, with the target of 25% of subjects in each age group. All subjects were titrated to their randomized dose over a 14-day Titration Period. Following titration, subjects continued treatment at their randomly assigned dose over a 12-week Maintenance Period. Subjects exiting the study underwent a 2-week taper, unless they enrolled in a follow-on study. Subjects were followed for post-study safety monitoring.
NCT06056908
Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS) is a genetic condition characterized by bone marrow failure, medical co-morbidities, and leukemia predisposition. SDS-Like patients share clinical features with SDS but lack mutations in known SDS genes. Since SDS/SDS-Like syndromes are rare diseases, data are sparse regarding the clinical features, natural history, clinical outcomes with current management, and treatment. For this reason, the SDS Registry was formed to collect clinical data from medical records and to bank biological samples with the goal of understanding SDS/SDS-Like diseases to develop better treatments and improve the health of patients with these conditions.
NCT05748288
The Huntington Study Group currently holds the registered trademark for the Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale. The UHDRS® is a research tool which has been developed by the HSG to provide a uniform assessment of the clinical features and course of HD. The UHDRS® has undergone extensive reliability and validity testing and has been used as a major outcome measure by the HSG in controlled clinical trials. The purpose of this research study is to determine if a standard HD assessment (the UHDRS®) is as reliable when conducted virtually as it is when conducted at an in-person visit (vUHDRS)
NCT03302234
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of pembrolizumab given in combination with either ipilimumab or placebo as first-line treatment in participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The primary hypothesis of this study is that overall survival (OS) and/or progression-free survival (PFS) is prolonged in participants who receive pembrolizumab and ipilimumab compared to those who receive pembrolizumab and placebo. With Amendment 6 (effective date: 11-Dec-2020), active participants, investigator, and sponsor personnel or delegate(s) involved in the treatment administration or clinical evaluation of the participants will be unblinded. Participants will discontinue ipilimumab and placebo and participants who remain on treatment will receive open-label pembrolizumab only.
NCT03803761
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well copanlisib works when given together with fulvestrant in treating patients with estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced) and progressing after prior treatment. HER2 and ER are two types of proteins called receptors that can affect the growth of breast cancer cells. Additionally, investigators hope to learn from this study if tumor genetic information is important for predicting whether this type of breast cancer will respond to fulvestrant and copanlisib. Copanlisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Hormone therapy using fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells. Giving copanlisib and fulvestrant may work better in treating patients with ER+ and HER2- breast cancer compared to fulvestrant alone.
NCT03565991
Avelumab in combination with talazoparib will be investigated in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors with a BRCA or ATM defect.
NCT05486520
This research study wants to learn more about improving the attainable image quality for ultra-low field MRI of the breast using new data acquisition methods(also called MRI pulse sequences) and image reconstruction algorithms. For this pilot study, are testing a new method to image breast cancers at ultra-low magnetic field. The findings from this breast imaging technique will be compared with results obtained from standard mammograms, ultrasounds, MRIs, clinical examinations, and pathology evaluations, when available. The ultra-low field breast MRI performed for this study will be for research purposes and will not be used to guide clinical care.
NCT02971956
This research study is studying a targeted therapy as a possible treatment for advanced esophageal cancer. The study intervention involved in this study is: -Pembrolizumab
NCT01586767
The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that 1)intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) or proton radiation therapy would result in improved local control rate and lowered toxicity compared to conventional radiotherapy, and 2) proton radiation therapy would result in equivalent or improved local control rate with similar or lower toxicity compared to IMRT, in the treatment of locally advanced sinonasal malignancy. Data from retrospective studies suggest that IMRT or proton radiation therapy resulted in promising outcome in patients with sinonasal malignancy. To this date, no prospective study has been conducted to evaluate the outcome of sinonasal cancer treated with IMRT or proton radiation therapy. This Phase II trial is the first prospective study conducted to determine the treatment outcome and toxicity of IMRT or proton in the treatment of sinonasal cancer. IMRT and proton radiation therapy are the two most established and most commonly employed advanced radiotherapy techniques for the treatment of sinonasal cancer. It is highly controversial whether one is superior to the other in terms of local control and toxicity outcome. It is also not clear if a subset of patients would benefit more from one treatment technology versus the other. Due to the rarity and heterogeneity of sinonasal malignancies and the fact that proton beam is only available at a few centers in the United States, it is not feasible at present to do a Phase III study randomizing patients between IMRT and proton radiation therapy. In this study, a planned secondary analysis will be performed, comparing the treatment and toxicity outcome between IMRT and proton. The data on the IMRT and proton comparison from this trial will be used to design future multi-center prospective trials and to determine if randomized trial is necessary. In this study, the treatment technique employed for an individual case will not be determined by the treating physician(s), but rather by the most advanced technology available at the treating institution for the treatment of the sinonasal cancer. At the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), proton beam therapy will be used for patients who meet the eligibility criteria. For institutions where protons are not available or institutions where the proton planning systems have not been optimized, IMRT exclusively will be used for the treatment of sinonasal cancer. Patient and tumor characteristics are expected to be comparable between IMRT- and proton- institutions
NCT04171843
This is a Phase 1/2a, nonrandomized, open-label, parallel assignment, single-dose, dose-escalation, and dose-expansion study to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of PBCAR269A, with or without nirogacestat, in adults with r/r MM. Study subjects in Cohort A will receive PBCAR269A and study subjects in Cohort B will receive PBCAR269A and nirogacestat. At each dose level, study subjects in Cohort A and Cohort B will receive the same dose of PBCAR269A. In Cohort B, all study subjects will follow the same dosing regimen of nirogacestat. This study was terminated prior to beginning of Phase II due to lack of sufficient therapeutic effect
NCT04804969
Clinical validation study of the MyoVista wavECG.
NCT05295589
This phase II trial compares copanlisib and olaparib to standard of care chemotherapy in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that did not respond to previous platinum-based chemotherapy (platinum resistant) and that has come back (recurrent). Copanlisib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Olaparib is a PARP inhibitor. PARP is a protein that helps repair damaged deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Blocking PARP may prevent tumor cells from repairing their damaged DNA, causing them to die. PARP inhibitors are a type of targeted therapy. Chemotherapy drugs 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. Giving copanlisib and olaparib may extend the time that the cancer does not progress compared to standard of care chemotherapy in patients with recurrent platinum resistant ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
