NCT07097142
This phase III trial compares the effect of decreased number of radiation (ultra-hypofractionated) treatments to the usual radiation number of treatments (hypofractionation) with standard of care chemotherapy, with cisplatin, gemcitabine or mitomycin and 5-fluorouracil for the treatment of patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a short period of time. Ultra-hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers radiation over an even shorter period of time than hypofractionated radiation therapy. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks the cells from making DNA and may kill tumor cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as mitomycin-C and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), 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 ultra-hypofractionated radiation may be equally effective as hypofractionated therapy for patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer.
NCT01217931
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare 6 different 2-drug "sequences" of everolimus, bevacizumab, or pazopanib to learn how they may affect metastatic kidney cancer. For the 2-drug sequence, participants will receive 1 of these drugs and may start taking another of these drugs after that. Researchers will also study the safety of these 2-drug sequences.
NCT05888727
The goal of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to examine the feasibility and initial efficacy of undertaking and delivering a novel, stakeholder-informed exercise training program for wheelchair users with multiple sclerosis. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the study feasible as measured by participant recruitment (24 participants total), retention (80%), and safety (adverse events)? * Is the study acceptable as measured by participant satisfaction and perceptions using an evaluation survey and semi-structured interviews? * Is there significant change in following the 16-week study in metabolic health outcomes, MS symptoms, and exercise behavior change? Participants will be randomized to complete the 16-week SPIN exercise training program or WellMS attention/contact wellness program. Researchers will compare the SPIN and WellMS groups to determine if there is a significant difference in metabolic health outcomes, MS symptoms, and exercise behavior change.
NCT00709033
Patients on this study have a type of lymph gland cancer called non-Hodgkin Lymphoma or chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. Their lymphoma or CLL has come back or has not gone away after treatment. Because there is no standard treatment for the cancer at this time or because the currently used treatments do not work fully in all cases, patients are being asked to volunteer to take part in a gene transfer research study using special immune cells. The body has different ways of fighting infection and disease. No single way seems perfect for fighting cancers. This research study combines two different ways of fighting disease: antibodies and T cells. Antibodies are types of proteins that protect the body from infectious diseases and possibly cancer. T cells, also called T lymphocytes, are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill other cells, including cells infected with viruses and tumor cells. Both antibodies and T cells have been used to treat patients with cancers. They have shown promise, but have not been strong enough to cure most patients. The antibody used in this study is called anti-CD19. This antibody sticks to lymphoma cells because of a substance on the outside of these cells called CD19. CD19 antibodies have been used to treat people with lymphoma and CLL. For this study, the anti-CD19 antibody has been changed so that instead of floating free in the blood it is now attached to T cells. When an antibody is joined to a T cell in this way it is called a chimeric receptor. These chimeric receptor-T cells seem to be able to kill tumors, but they don't last very long and so their chances of fighting the cancer are limited. Investigators found that T cells work better if they also attach a protein called CD28 to the T cells. This protein makes the T cells more active and survive longer. Also they found that T cells that are also trained to recognize the virus that causes infectious mononucleosis (called Epstein Barr Virus or EBV) can stay in the blood stream for many years. These CD19-CD28 chimeric receptor T cells and CD19 chimeric-EBV specific T cells are investigational products not approved by the FDA. The purpose of this study is to find the biggest dose of chimeric T cells that is safe to administer, to see how long each of the T cell populations (CD19-CD28 and CD19-EBV-specific) last, to assess what the side effects are, and to evaluate whether this therapy might help people with lymphoma or CLL.
NCT07153939
This study will evaluate the Velocity Percutaneous Arteriovenous Fistula (pAVF) System, a new minimally invasive method for creating dialysis access. People with kidney failure often require dialysis, which depends on having a reliable arteriovenous fistula (AVF). Traditionally, AVFs are created with surgery, but surgery can involve incisions, longer recovery, and sometimes additional procedures before the AVF can be used. The Velocity System is designed to create an AVF through a small puncture in the skin using a catheter-based approach, without open surgery. This pivotal study will assess how safe the procedure is and how well it works for patients who need dialysis. The study will take place at multiple centers in the United States and will enroll adults with kidney failure who are candidates for fistula creation. Participants will undergo the Velocity procedure and then be followed closely with exams, ultrasounds, and dialysis assessments for up to five years. Taking part is voluntary. Patients may benefit from a less invasive approach to dialysis access, but the main goal is to collect information that could improve future care for people with kidney failure.
NCT04170153
This is an open-label, Phase I, first-in-human (FIH) multicenter, clinical study conducted in multiple parts to establish the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profile (with and without food) and early signs of efficacy of Tuvuseritib (M1774) as monotherapy and in combination with the poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor niraparib.
NCT07377747
The aim of the study is to collect prospective data on the treatment outcomes in patients with first localized, resectable recurrent retroperitoneal well-differentiated and/or dedifferentiated liposarcoma undergoing curative intent treatment. Patients enrolled in this study will form a validation cohort of the TARPSWG recurrent RPS nomogram. The treatment decision (surgery alone, or preoperative RT +/- chemotherapy followed by surgery) is per the institutional multidisciplinary team recommendation.
NCT07023354
This study is open to adults aged between 18 and 80 years of age with a body mass index (BMI) of 18.5 to 42 kg/m². People with or without liver problems can take part in the study. The purpose of this study is to find out how much of a medicine called BI 1291583 gets into the blood of people with and without liver problems. BI 1291583 is being developed to treat people with bronchiectasis, a chronic disease of the lungs. People living with this condition often also have liver problems. Therefore, it is important to find out whether liver problems influence the amount of BI 1291583 that gets into the blood. Study participants receive a single dose of BI 1291583 as a tablet taken by mouth. Participants are divided into 4 groups based on how well their liver works: 1 group without liver problems, and 3 groups with mild, moderate, and severe liver problems. Each participant without liver problems is matched with participants from the other groups based on factors such as age, sex, smoking habits, and body weight to ensure accurate comparisons. Participants are in the study for about 3 months. They stay for 3 days at the study site and also visit the study site up to 9 times. During these visits, the doctors collect information about participants' health. To assess the study endpoints, the doctors regularly take blood samples from the participants. The doctors regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
NCT05588843
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, dose-ranging Phase 2 study. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SAR443122 compared to placebo in participants with moderate to severe UC. Dose selection for further clinical development will be based on the multiple efficacy, safety and PK parameters. The study consists of 4 parallel arms (3 dose groups of SAR443122 vs placebo) to assess the efficacy and safety of SAR443122 in participants with moderate to severe UC. All participants will receive a total of 52 weeks (a 12-week induction treatment phase and a 40-week maintenance phase) of study treatment, except if treatment should be discontinued per investigator's assessment. At the end of the first 12 weeks of induction treatment, all participants in clinical response or remission will be offered study treatment up to 40 weeks and will continue with the same blinded treatment that was assigned. Participants who do not achieve clinical response or remission at the end of the initial 12 weeks induction treatment will roll over in an open-label treatment arm and will be treated with SAR443122 at the highest tested dose. In addition, participants from the maintenance treatment that lose clinical efficacy at any time up to V10/Week 40 (Week 28 of maintenance) will be offered to roll over in the open-label treatment arm with SAR443122 at the highest dose.
NCT03295227
This phase I trial studies the sides effects and best dose of pembrolizumab in treating participants with thymoma or thymic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
NCT06983041
The objective of this study is to determine clinical cure rate and safety of a proprietary Vaginal Cooling Device (VCD) in women with VCC. In addition, the safety, mycological cure rates, the speed and efficacy of symptom resolution, vaginal hyphae and polymorphonuclear (PMN) scores, and Quality-of-Life (QoL) parameters will be determined.
NCT05929235
The goal of this clinical trial is to study the safety and tolerability in all advanced solid tumors, including advanced urothelial carcinoma. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Is FX-909 safe and tolerable, as a monotherapy and in combination with Pembrolizumab * What is the right dose level for patients Participants will be asked to take FX-909 daily in tablet form, or FX-909 daily and Pembrolizumab every 3 weeks, and record any outcomes from taking the drug. Participants will also be asked to return for multiple site visits for various blood tests and to collect blood and tumor samples as well as have regular CT/MRI scans.
NCT04391049
This phase I trial studies the side effects of OBP-301 when given together with carboplatin, paclitaxel, and radiation therapy in treating patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal cancer that invades local or regional structures. OBP-301 is a virus that has been designed to infect and destroy tumor cells (although there is a small risk that it can also infect normal cells). Chemotherapy drugs, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, 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. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving OBP-301 with chemotherapy and radiation therapy may work better than standard chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal cancer.
NCT05590377
The main aim of this study is to determine safety and tolerability of modakafusp alfa given together with daratumumab to find out the best treatment dose. Another aim of this study is to learn more about the characteristics of modakafusp alfa.
NCT05462145
