NCT00003700
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have untreated acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
NCT00023751
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 surgery with chemotherapy and radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells and prevent recurrence of the cancer. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of surgery with or without chemotherapy and radiation therapy in treating patients who have stage I rectal cancer.
NCT00063960
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as floxuridine and irinotecan use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Hepatic arterial infusion uses a catheter to deliver chemotherapy directly to the liver. Combining more than one drug and giving them in different ways may kill any tumor cells remaining after surgery. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of systemic irinotecan and hepatic arterial infusion with floxuridine after surgery in treating patients who have hepatic (liver) metastases from colorectal cancer.
NCT00003571
RATIONALE: Analyzing the structure of genes found in a person's cancer cells may help doctors improve methods of treating patients with colon cancer. PURPOSE: Clinical trial to study the genes of patients treated with chemotherapy for colon cancer.
NCT00077324
RATIONALE: Evaluating specific proteins in the blood may be an effective and noninvasive procedure to help doctors determine if a patient has early non-small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying proteomic profiling to see how well it works in diagnosing non-small cell lung cancer in patients who are undergoing resection for suspicious (abnormal) stage I lung lesions.
NCT00072527
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, irinotecan, carboplatin, and etoposide, 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 may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of cisplatin and irinotecan followed by carboplatin, etoposide, and radiation therapy in treating patients who have limited-stage small cell lung cancer.
NCT00003863
RATIONALE: Determination of genetic markers for aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma may help identify patients with this disease and help predict the outcome of treatment. PURPOSE: Diagnostic study to determine the genetic markers in patients who have aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
NCT00048971
RATIONALE: Genetic testing may help predict how patients will respond to chemotherapy drugs and may help doctors plan more effective treatment with fewer side effects. PURPOSE: Genetic study to determine how genes affect the severity of diarrhea in patients with stage III colon cancer who are receiving chemotherapy.
NCT00003381
RATIONALE: Questionnaires that measure quality of life during treatment may improve the ability to plan treatment for patients with esophageal cancer. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the quality of life in patients receiving treatment for esophageal cancer.
NCT00002494
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy and alternating regimens of chemotherapy in treating patients who have non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or acute lymphocytic leukemia.
NCT01513902
Phase 1 study to describe pharmacokinetics of CP-690,550 in pediatric patients 2 to less than 18 years of age with Juvenile Idiopathic Rheumatoid Arthritis (JIA).
NCT00003931
RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as genetic testing, may improve the ability to detect acute myeloid leukemia and determine the extent of disease. PURPOSE: Diagnostic study to try to detect changes in the genes of patients who have acute myeloid leukemia.
NCT00003834
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients with liver metastases from colorectal cancer.
NCT00012025
RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using ICI 182780 may fight breast cancer by blocking the activity of estrogen in the tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ICI 182780 in treating patients who have metastatic breast cancer that has not responded to previous hormone therapy.
NCT00046891
RATIONALE: Chemotherapy may cause memory loss, attention loss, and other problems that make it difficult for patients to think clearly. EGb761 may help maintain mental clarity in patients undergoing chemotherapy. PURPOSE: Randomized clinical trial to study the effectiveness of EGb761 in preventing loss of mental clarity in women who are receiving chemotherapy for newly diagnosed breast cancer.
NCT00025025
RATIONALE: Screening tests may help doctors detect cancer cells early and plan more effective treatment for colorectal cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized screening trial to compare the effectiveness of fecal occult blood testing with that of DNA-based testing of stool and blood in identifying colorectal cancer.
NCT00005850
This trial is designed to test the efficacy of fluoxetine to improve patient's quality of life during chemotherapy. An innovative application of a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor may modulate the effects of fatigue, anxiety and depression which worsen quality of life.
NCT00553501
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as epratuzumab and rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Giving epratuzumab and rituximab together may be more effective in treating follicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving epratuzumab together with rituximab works in treating patients with previously untreated follicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
NCT02126995
This study is a multisite, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2 study of MG01CI (low dose and high dose once daily) for 6 weeks compared with placebo in a 1:1 ratio of 60 adolescent and adult subjects with Fragile X Syndrome (FXS). Following Screening, subjects will be randomized to MG01CI or matching placebo at Baseline (Day 0) and the 6 week Double-blind Treatment Period will begin on Day 1. The first 4 weeks of the treatment period will be a dose-optimization period, All subjects will start with two daily tablets: low dose metadoxine or matching blinded placebo. At weekly visits/phone assessments, the investigator will evaluate the dose based upon the investigator's assessment of safety and tolerability. If the subject demonstrates safety or tolerability concerns with the low dose after 1 or 2 weeks of treatment, then the subject will be discontinued. If there are no concerns about safety and tolerability after 2 weeks of treatment, then the dose will be increased to high dose or placebo. If at the high dose there are concerns about safety and tolerability, then the dose will be either kept the same or reduced to low dose for the remainder of the treatment period. There will be a 2-week Follow-up Period after the last dose of study treatment or early termination.
NCT01578850
To compare the maintenance of efficacy of the combination of etanercept 50 mg once weekly plus methotrexate with or without other disease modifying antirheumatic drugs therapy with that of methotrexate with or without other disease modifying antirheumatic drugs therapy at Week 52 in subjects with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis who have achieved low disease activity after 24 weeks of therapy with open label etanercept 50 mg once weekly plus MTX with or without other disease modifying antirheumatic drugs therapy.
