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.
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.
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.
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
NCT02443090
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of fispemifene in men with secondary hypogonadism and sexual side effects.
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.
NCT01211691
This is a global, multicenter, open-label, repeat-dose, Phase 1/2 study consisting of a Dose Escalation Phase (Phase 1) and a Cohort Expansion Phase (Phase 2). In both phases, KB004 will be administered by IV infusion once weekly as part of a 21-day dosing cycle.
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.
NCT01382836
As part of ongoing efforts to determine the causes of asthma and the progression of the disease, this study will gather data to explore the interaction of genetic and environmental factors in the cause and severity of asthma in inner city children.
NCT00103948
This is an 18-week, prospective, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, (1:1) parallel-group study.
NCT01052077
This is a Double-blind study wherein patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) will receive either from 1 to 3 mg a day of study medication (OPC-34712)or placebo (an inactive substance) in addition to an FDA approved antidepressant in order to determine if the study medication is effective as an add on treatment of MDD.
NCT01637064
By creating a registry, physicians will have the opportunity to understand the clinical outcomes of Myositis patients treated with Acthar. Despite the availability of clinical exams, muscle biopsies, and other testing, it is surmised that there may be a more important classification of myositis that physicians are not diagnosing which could possibly lead to improper treatment due to inaccurate diagnosis. There may be several types of immune and inflammatory myositis (IIM) that do not fit well into the typical sub classifications of myositis.
NCT01298401
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as ganitumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride and capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Specialized radiation therapy, such as 3-dimensional conformal radiation therapy, that delivers a high-dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of ganitumab when given together with gemcitabine hydrochloride followed by radiation therapy, ganitumab, capecitabine, and maintenance therapy in treating patients with locally advanced cancer of the pancreas.
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.
NCT01406912
A multicentre, randomized, two parallel group study comparing virtual reality using Wii gaming technology versus Recreational activities in patients receiving conventional rehabilitation after an ischemic stroke. Primary Hypothesis: Virtual reality using the Wii gaming system is more efficacious in improving motor function than recreational therapy among patients receiving conventional rehabilitation following a recent ischemic stroke.
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.
NCT01644474
Alirocumab (SAR236553/REGN727) is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9). Primary Objective of the study: To demonstrate the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) by alirocumab in comparison with ezetimibe after 24 weeks of treatment in participants with hypercholesterolemia. Secondary Objectives: * To evaluate the effect of alirocumab in comparison with ezetimibe 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
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.
