NCT00030589
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Photodynamic therapy uses light and drugs that make cancer cells more sensitive to light to kill cancer cells. Photosensitizing drugs, such as methoxsalen, are absorbed by cancer cells and, when exposed to light, become active and kill the cancer cells. Combining chemotherapy with photodynamic therapy may be an effective treatment for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining different doses of bexarotene with photodynamic therapy in treating patients who have stage IB or stage IIA cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.
NCT00002911
RATIONALE: Marimastat may stop the growth of non-small cell lung cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: Randomized double-blinded phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of marimastat in treating patients who have residual stage III non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT01153009
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of vortioxetine, once daily (QD), compared with placebo in adults with major depressive disorder.
NCT00731653
The objective of this study is to allow patients who have participated in the precursor study of BCI-024 in combination with BCI-049 versus placebo or BCI-024 alone (Protocol #CBM-IT-01) to receive 6 weeks of open-label treatment with an increased dose of BCI-024 in combination with an increased dose of BCI-049. The safety and tolerability of this higher dose of the combination will be evaluated, as will the treatment effect in reducing symptoms of depression in patients with MDD.
NCT01435226
This is a Phase 2 Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of GS-5885, GS-9451, Tegobuvir and Ribavirin (RBV) Compared with GS-5885, GS-9451 with Tegobuvir or RBV in Treatment-Experienced Subjects with Chronic Genotype 1a or 1b Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infection.
NCT00243100
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat and gemcitabine in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vorinostat and gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vorinostat may also 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 more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells.
NCT00005845
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of tipifarnib in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes. Tipifarnib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT01137448
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect that weight loss has on the severity of psoriasis in obese subjects. Fifty obese (BMI equal to or greater than 30) patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis will be enrolled in a weight loss intervention program. The severity of their psoriasis will be reevaluated at month 3 and month 6 of the program to determine what effect weight loss has had on their psoriasis. Serum TNF-alpha will be measured at month 0 and month 6. The hypothesis that will be tested is that weight loss will lead to a significant improvement in the severity of psoriasis and a reduction in TNF-alpha levels.
NCT00679588
The primary objective is to compare the efficacy and safety of once daily (q.d.) subcutaneous (s.c.) injections of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) with q.d. s.c. injections of Enoxaparin for the prevention of Venous Thromboembolic Events (VTE) in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the safety of Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) and to document Semuloparin sodium (AVE5026) exposure in this population.
NCT00359424
The purpose of this study is to compare two different treatment approaches to recanalization started within 3 hours of symptom onset-combined intravenous (IV) and endovascular therapy and standard intravenous (IV) rt-PA alone.
NCT00672958
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of once daily vortioxetine (Lu AA21004) in adults with major depressive disorder.
NCT00672620
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of vortioxetine, once daily (QD), in adults with major depressive disorder.
NCT00003814
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known if eflornithine is more effective than no further therapy in treating bladder cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of eflornithine in treating patients who have newly diagnosed or recurrent bladder cancer.
NCT01021891
Trial will include 40 subjects and consists of 3 visits: Screening, Treatment and Follow up. A euglycemic clamp procedure and Technosphere®/Insulin (T/I) administration will occur at Visit 2 for both COPD and non COPD subjects.
NCT00882726
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of CNTO 3649 following a single dose in healthy adults and following multiple doses in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
NCT00262067
This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone in subjects with previously untreated metastatic breast cancer.
NCT00017524
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of AG2037 in treating patients who have advanced, metastatic, or recurrent solid tumors.
NCT01536821
The PROGENI Family Study is part of a larger consortium that is studying a gene shown to be important in Parkinson's disease, called LRRK2. People who have a defect in the LRRK2 gene will often develop Parkinson's disease. Eligible participants will be asked to complete a single Study Visit at an affiliated research facility closest to their home.
NCT00597038
The purpose of this study is to: Phase I Objectives: * Find the most tolerated dose to use for Phase II * Collect information on how the body responds to this combination of study drug Phase II Objectives: * To determine the overall response of participants using this combination of study drug The expression of proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase (Src), a substance present in a significant proportion of melanomas plays a role in the growth, multiplying, and dividing of cancer cells. Melanoma cells appear to be sensitive to these agents that block the action of Src in concentrations that can be achieved in patients. We suggest that Src inhibitors (such as Dasatinib) may be a good choice for treatment of melanoma in combination with Dacarbazine (a chemotherapy drug that can cause the shrinkage of melanomas). We wish to to evaluate the Src inhibitor Dasatinib in combination with the chemotherapy drug Dacarbazine. The novel oral Src inhibitor Dasatinib may be able to increase the effectiveness of chemotherapy for melanoma compared to chemotherapy alone. Dacarbazine is a standard treatment for melanoma currently. The effectiveness of this chemotherapy drug may be increased by combination with Dasatinib. Dacarbazine has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating melanoma; Dasatinib has been approved by the FDA to treat leukemia, but it has not been approved alone or in combination with Dacarbazine to treat melanoma.
NCT00631540
