NCT00388453

NCT02463409
This study will test an investigational drug, theophylline, in children with pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1a (PHP1a). This study involves a 3 day visit to the Vanderbilt Clinical Research Center.
NCT01701037
This phase II trial studies how well giving dabrafenib alone and in combination with trametinib before surgery works in treating patients with advanced melanoma that can be removed by surgery. Studying samples of tumor tissue in the laboratory from patients receiving dabrafenib and trametinib may help doctors learn more about the effects of these drugs on cells and help identify biomarkers that determine which patients will respond to these drugs best.
NCT01774851
To determine whether the combination of MM-111 plus paclitaxel and trastuzumab is more effective than paclitaxel and trastuzumab alone
NCT00503776
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Amifostine may decrease the side effects caused by chemotherapy and radiation therapy. It is not yet known whether chemotherapy and radiation therapy are more effective with or without amifostine in treating head and neck cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying amifostine to see how well it works compared with standard care in reducing side effects in patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapy for stage III or stage IV head and neck cancer.
NCT01768572
Primary Objective: To assess, in the same study, the safety of sarilumab and tocilizumab in participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who were inadequate responders to or intolerant of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) antagonists.
NCT02057250
Primary Objective: To collect real-use data of the sarilumab auto-injector device (AID) used by rheumatoid arthritis (RA) participants. Secondary Objective: To compare the pharmacokinetic (PK) exposure of sarilumab administered by AID versus prefilled syringes (PFS).
NCT00856492
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Colony-stimulating factors, such as pegfilgrastim, may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help the immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some find tumor cells and kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Others interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Bevacizumab may also may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving these treatments before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. It is not yet known which treatment regimen is more effective in treating women with breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and pegfilgrastim to compare how well they work when given with or without bevacizumab in treating women with inflammatory or locally advanced breast cancer.
NCT02121210
Primary Objective: To evaluate the immunogenicity of sarilumab administered as monotherapy. Secondary Objectives: * To evaluate the other safety aspects of sarilumab administered as monotherapy. * To assess the exposure of sarilumab administered as monotherapy.
NCT00100984
The main objective of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of an enfuvirtide containing regimen to a nucleoside combination regimen. Resistance information will also be collected.
NCT01967342
Chronic pain is a significant public health problem that affects over 116 million Americans, costs $600 billion annually, and is unequally borne by people in low-income brackets, especially ethnic minorities. Many individuals also have health literacy deficits (difficulty understanding their illness and difficulty navigating the health care system for treatment) putting them at a greater disadvantage. Treatment usually relies on expensive medical interventions that often have negative side-effects. Psychosocial treatments, like Pain Education and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), show promise, but are usually unavailable. Clinicians are poorly equipped to provide psychosocial treatments to patients with low health literacy. CBT has not been adapted and supported for use in individuals with low health literacy, and even educational materials are often poorly adapted for their needs. To address this problem, the PI completed a small trial showing benefits from health literacy-adapted pain education and CBT groups for chronic pain in a population with low income and low health literacy. Patients in both treatments reported lower pain by the end of treatment, and the effects were maintained at one year. Patients in the CBT group also reported less depression. The current study uses a larger sample, and directly compares these psychosocial treatments to medical treatment-as-usual to seek better evidence for or against their widespread use in community settings. Our research questions: 1. In people with chronic pain and low income and/or low literacy, does participating in a health-literacy-adapted psychosocial treatment improve their pain and interference in daily activities due to pain by the end of treatment when compared with a group receiving typical medical care, and are these effects maintained 6 months later? 2. Does participation in the CBT pain management group improve symptoms of depression better than a pain education group by the end of treatment, and are these effects maintained 6 months later? In partnership with a federally qualified health center, we will enroll 294 patients with chronic pain. Main outcomes will be patient-reported pain intensity, pain interference, depression, and perceived change. From an earlier trial, we expect that our participants will be \~75% female and \~70% African American, and will have low literacy and low income (\~60% in the low 15% nationally on word reading, and 90% at or below the poverty threshold).
NCT01584531
The primary objectives of this study are to determine if rigosertib sodium, given orally in the form of soft gel capsules, is safe and is associated with a reduction in the number of blood transfusion units that are needed in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) classified as Low or Intermediate-1 (Int-1) (any cytogenetics) or trisomy 8 Intermediate 2 (Int-2) in the International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) who are transfusion-dependent. Rigosertib will be taken on days 1 to 21 of a 21-day cycle.
NCT00048022
