The purpose of this investigational study is to determine if a study medication is safe and effective in reducing the symptoms associated with endometriosis; if the study medication reduces the need for pain medication for endometriosis symptoms; and if the study medication improves a participant's ability to carry out daily activities. Qualified participants will receive no cost treatment, which may include study-related examinations, diagnostic procedures including a Pap smear, laboratory testing, and a mammogram (aged 40-45). Qualified participants will also receive study medication at no cost. As a participant, the study volunteer may also experience the satisfaction of knowing she is helping the advancement of women's health care.
NCT02346812
Healthy individuals (n=18) will participate in 2 controlled-feeding study periods that are 3 weeks each in length: 1) Control diet 2) Brassica diet. The control diet will consist of typical American foods and will be free of Brassica vegetables and free of glucosinolates and isothiocyanates. The Brassica diet will contain the control diet plus glucosinolate/isothiocyanate treatment foods. There will be a break of 3 weeks in between study periods. Blood, urine, and fecal samples will be collected at the end of each study period. Eligible participants will be selected based on genotype for glutathione S-transferase (GST), which has been shown to influence the potential protective role of dietary Brassicas. Half the participants (n=9) will be GSTM1-positive individuals and half (n=9) will have the GSTM1-null genotype.
NCT01996618

NCT00045500
RATIONALE: UCN-01 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for cancer cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining UCN-01 with prednisone may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining UCN-01 with prednisone in treating patients who have refractory solid tumors or lymphoma.
NCT00020462
RATIONALE: Vaccines made from a person's cancer cells may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Combining vaccine therapy with interleukin-2 may be a more effective treatment for follicular lymphoma . PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of vaccine therapy plus interleukin-2 in treating patients who have stage III, stage IV, or recurrent follicular lymphoma.
NCT01843491
This is an open label Phase 1 study of the Ad-PfCA vaccine designed to 1) provide reagents for the development and refinement of cell-mediated immunoassays for measuring the human immune response to candidate malaria vaccines (especially protective malaria vaccines such as DNA/Ad-PfCA where better assays are needed to identify the correlates of protective immunity) and 2) to provide a repository of antigen-specific PBMCs that can be used as positive and negative controls in cell mediated immunoassays.
NCT00006981
RATIONALE: Immunotoxins can locate tumor cells and kill them without harming normal cells. Immunotoxin therapy may be an effective treatment for advanced cancer. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of immunotoxins in treating patients who have advanced cancer.
NCT00074243
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CC-8490, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of CC-8490 in treating patients who have recurrent or refractory high-grade gliomas.
NCT00085150
RATIONALE: LMB-2 immunotoxin can locate cancer cells and kill them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of LMB-2 immunotoxin in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory leukemia or lymphoma.
NCT00020410
RATIONALE: Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of monoclonal antibody therapy and kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of radiolabeled monoclonal antibody followed by peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have relapsed or metastatic breast cancer.
NCT00087425
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bryostatin 1, work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Bryostatin 1 may help rituximab kill more cancer cells by making them more sensitive to the drug. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving bryostatin 1 together with rituximab works in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia that has not responded to previous treatment with rituximab.
NCT00042861
RATIONALE: UCN-01 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining UCN-01 with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining UCN-01, fluorouracil, and leucovorin in treating patients who have metastatic or unresectable solid tumors.
NCT00039585
RATIONALE: Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for cancer cell growth. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to determine the effectiveness of imatinib mesylate in treating patients who have refractory or relapsed ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer, or ovarian low malignant potential tumor.
NCT00019058
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Drugs such as pentoxifylline and hydroxyurea may make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of radiation therapy plus pentoxifylline and hydroxyurea in treating patients who have high-grade astrocytoma or glioblastoma.
NCT00005057
RATIONALE: Inserting a modified herpesvirus gene into a person's melanoma cells may make the cancer more sensitive to the antiviral agent ganciclovir. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of gene therapy in treating patients who have stage IV melanoma.
NCT00019825
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 decitabine in treating patients who have unresectable lung or esophageal cancer or malignant mesothelioma of the pleura.
NCT01411280
The purpose of this study is to assess whether methylphenidate is effective in enhancing the cognitive performance of children with the HbSS or HbSC genotype of SCD who have sustained neurological complications on laboratory-based measures of sustained attention, reaction time, and executive functions, and indirectly, verbal short-term and long-term memory.
NCT00353587
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active comparator-controlled phase 2/3 study of three dose levels of MBX-102 (200, 400, 600 mg) given orally to patients with type 2 diabetes receiving concomitant therapy with insulin. Eligible patients will be adults with type 2 diabetes who are taking intermediate- and/or long-acting insulin or pre-mixed (e.g., "70/30") insulin, or a combination of insulin and one or two non-TZD hypoglycemic agents including sulfonylurea, metformin, acrabose or Byetta, but who are poorly controlled on their existing therapy. Preference for enrollment will be given to patients on insulin monotherapy. Patients treated with a combination of insulin and other hypoglycemic agent(s) must be willing and able to discontinue and washout of the hypoglycemic agent(s) for the entire duration of the study (in toto, approximately 28 weeks). Patients who are taking fixed doses of a short-acting insulin (e.g., not a "sliding scale") in combination with intermediate-acting insulin may qualify for the study if both the patient and investigator are willing to either change to pre-mixed insulin (e.g., 70/30) or discontinue use of the short acting insulin for at least 26 weeks. Patients treated with a sliding scale of short-acting insulin will not be eligible for enrollment.
