NCT00005087
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Colony-stimulating factors such as filgrastim may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a person's immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of paclitaxel, cisplatin, and filgrastim combined with radiation therapy in treating patients who have locally recurrent head and neck cancer and have received previous treatment with radiation therapy.
NCT00003417
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Computer systems that allow doctors to create a 3-dimensional picture of the tumor in order to plan treatment may result in more effective radiation therapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of radiation therapy that has been planned with a computer plus chemotherapy in treating patients who have glioblastoma multiforme.
NCT00003162
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. It is not yet known which radiation therapy regimen is more effective for bone metastases. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare different radiation therapy regimens in treating patients who have bone metastases from breast or prostate cancer.
NCT00003139
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Drugs such as pilocarpine may protect normal cells from the side effects of radiation therapy. It is not yet known if pilocarpine may be effective in preventing mucositis and dry mouth in patients receiving radiation therapy for head and neck cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized, double-blinded, phase III trial to study the effectiveness of pilocarpine in preventing mucositis and dry mouth in patients receiving radiation therapy for head and neck cancer.
NCT00075868
RATIONALE: Octreotide may be effective in preventing or controlling diarrhea in patients who are undergoing chemoradiotherapy for anal or rectal cancer. It is not yet known whether octreotide is effective in treating diarrhea. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying octreotide in preventing or reducing diarrhea in patients who are undergoing chemoradiotherapy for anal or rectal cancer.
NCT00011999
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 following surgery may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of chemotherapy plus radiation therapy in treating patients who have undergone surgery for stage III or stage IV head and neck cancer.
NCT01962675
The study investigates the effect of using transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and skilled stepping training versus skilled stepping training with sham-tDCS in improving ankle and leg motor control in persons with ambulatory persons with spinal cord injury. Hypotheses H1: Participants will display greater improvement in stepping function following tDCS combined with training compared to sham-tDCS and training. H2: Participants will display greater gains in cortical excitability, as evidenced by lower cortico-motor threshold (MT) associated with the TA muscles following tDCS and training compared to following sham stimulation and training. H3: Participants in the tDCS+training group will show greater increases walking speed in a timed 10 meter walking trial. H4: Participants in the tDCS+training group will show be able to perform a greater number of toe-taps test.
NCT01679184
Donor-Specific Antibody (DSA) (HLA) levels and non-HLA antibody levels in recipients prior to living kidney transplantation and randomize these individuals into a desensitization protocol in order to evaluate shifts that can occur with the Luminex and XM-One assay after treatment and up to 6 months post transplant. If desensitization is needed prior to transplantation in individuals with a negative crossmatch but positive DSA and/or XM-one - patients will be evaluated clinically with routine lab tests (serum creatinine levels, spot urine protein and spot urine creatinine levels) as well as protocol biopsy evaluations.
NCT01358526
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of OXN compared to placebo in opioid-experienced subjects with moderate to severe pain due to chronic low back pain who require around-the-clock opioid therapy.
NCT01644175
Alirocumab (SAR236553/REGN727) is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9). Primary Objective of the study: * To demonstrate the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) by alirocumab as add-on therapy to stable maximally tolerated daily statin therapy with or without other lipid-modifying therapy (LMT) in comparison with placebo after 24 weeks of treatment in high cardiovascular (CV) risk participants with hypercholesterolemia Secondary Objectives: * To evaluate the effect of alirocumab in comparison with placebo on LDL-C at other time points * To evaluate the effect of alirocumab on other lipid parameters * To evaluate the safety and tolerability of alirocumab
NCT00477490
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of several doses of the melt formulation of desmopressin in a broad population of adult patients with nocturia.
NCT00397683
The purpose of this study is to test MK0822 on disease activity in patients with osteoarthritis in the knee. Disease modifying activity of MK0822 will be assessed by measurements of knee cartilage using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the knee. This is an early phase trial and some specific protocol information is proprietary and not publicly available at this time. (Full information is available to trial participants).
NCT00233883
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability of a subcutaneous needle-free injection device used to administer Fuzeon, compared with the standard needle/syringe supplied with commercial Fuzeon. The anticipated time on study treatment is \<3 months, and the target sample size is \<100 individuals.
NCT01856881
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics following ascending multiple doses of AMG 876 in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
NCT00625612
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of one dose strength of Denufosol compared to placebo in patients with CF and a predicted FEV1 of greater than or equal to 75% but less than or equal to 110% predicted.
NCT00002850
RATIONALE: Giving antibiotics may be effective in preventing or controlling early infection in patients with multiple myeloma and may improve their response to chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying antibiotics to see how well they work compared to no antibiotics in preventing early infection in patients with multiple myeloma.
NCT00471445
RATIONALE: Topical cream containing amitriptyline and ketamine may help relieve pain, numbness, tingling, and other symptoms of peripheral neuropathy. It is not yet known whether topical amitriptyline and ketamine cream is more effective than a placebo in treating peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying the side effects and how well topical amitriptyline and ketamine cream work compared with a placebo in treating peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapy in patients with cancer.
NCT00879333
This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of RAD001 monotherapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer which has progressed after one or two lines of prior chemotherapy.
NCT00802841
There is no available data on the clinical benefit of dose escalation for patients with suboptimal response to imatinib, and patients may still improve their response with continuation of therapy at the standard dose as shown in the IRIS trial after 5 years of follow-up. However, there is no data yet regarding the potential benefit of using nilotinib in the group of patients with suboptimal response. In this study, the efficacy of nilotinib 400mg BID will be compared to imatinib 600mg QD.
