NCT00055705
RATIONALE: PV701 may be able to kill tumor cells while leaving normal cells undamaged. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of PV701 in treating patients who have advanced or recurrent ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal, colorectal, or other cancer found primarily within the peritoneal cavity.
NCT00005860
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 I trial to study the effectiveness of oxaliplatin with or without floxuridine and leucovorin in treating patients who have metastatic cancer of the peritoneum.
NCT00002411
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety of didanosine plus stavudine plus nelfinavir (NLF) with that of zidovudine plus lamivudine plus NLF. This study also examines how long these drug combinations are effective in lowering viral load (level of HIV in the blood).
NCT00587912
The purpose of this study is to obtain clinical specimens from pathologists and physicians involved in the diagnosis and care of patients with AIDS and non-AIDS associated malignancies.

NCT00700167
Cancer cells make proteins called antigens that act as markers for the tumor cells. These antigens cannot cause the cancer itself. Special white blood cells, called T cells or T lymphocytes, recognize and respond to antigens. In many diseases, these and other cells in the immune system help your body get rid of the disease. However, T cells are normally resting, and they need other proteins on the diseased cell surface to begin working. Unfortunately, cancer cells do not usually make all the other proteins that T cells need to work. Therefore, T cells do not normally work against the cancer cells. We think this is one of the reasons that cancers grow and are not rejected by the body in the first place. Another white blood cell, called a dendritic cell, does have most if not all of the special proteins needed to make T cells work to destroy cancer cells. However, dendritic cells do not normally have the cancer proteins on their surface. The challenge then is to combine the cancer markers (antigens) with these dendritic cells to make a vaccine. We think that the body's T cells might then react against the tumor and help destroy it. This study will see if putting tumor antigens made in a lab onto dendritic cells will make T cells work against tumor cells. We want to answer this question by injecting you with dendritic cells loaded with the antigens. Then we will check for a response based on lab studies and your own clinical course. We will compare your response against melanoma with your response against a common antigen, to which almost everyone has already been exposed. Flu, for example, is a common antigen to which most people have been exposed. We also need to test your response to an antigen that your body has not likely seen before. For example, we plan to use KLH (keyhole limpet hemocyanin), which is a pigment or color protein made from a sea creature known as a keyhole limpet. Each of these, the flu and KLH antigens, which should be harmless to you, will be used along with the dendritic cell-tumor vaccine. This will help us find out if the vaccine is working, based on the lab studies we will check before and after the vaccinations.
NCT00615095
The goal of this study is to find out if some people are more likely to get melanoma, a form of skin cancer, than others. People respond to the environment in different ways. Some may be born with genes that make them more likely to get this type of skin cancer. Genes are made up of DNA. DNA damage is one of the first steps in developing cancer. Each person has many ways to repair normal damage to their genes. Some people may have a lower level of this repair and that may make them more likely to get cancer. Some genes are important for DNA repair. The genes we want to test are thought to affect the rate at which DNA can be repaired. We also want to find out if sun habits are related to these levels of DNA repair or genetic mutations.
NCT00696436
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of azilsartan medoxomil, once daily (QD), compared to placebo, valsartan and olmesartan in participants with essential hypertension.
NCT01323608
The purpose of this pilot study is to determine the effect of various doses of vitamin D supplementation on vitamin D stores and calcium excretion in the urine in subjects with Thalassemia Major (TM). Subjects with TM are routinely placed on vitamin D supplements because they frequently have osteoporosis (a condition in which bone tissue thins and loses density and strength) and low vitamin D stores. The amount of vitamin D supplementation that is required to raise vitamin D stores in optimal levels is not known in TM, and will be determined in this study. Finally, a recent study in TM has linked blood vitamin D levels to urine calcium excretion, which is a risk factor for kidney stones. Therefore, we want to determine changes in calcium excretion with various vitamin D doses and with increasing vitamin D stores. We plan to test 3 doses of vitamin D for 3 months in children and adults with TM. Changes in vitamin D blood levels and urinary calcium will be determined. The results of this pilot study will be used in future studies that will examine the effect of various doses of vitamin D supplementation in the treatment of osteoporosis in TM.
NCT00443820
This study is designed to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of a topical formulation of terbinafine solution applied daily in patients with toenail fungus. This trial will study patients with mild to moderate toenail fungus disease of the big toenail and their responses to two treatment durations, 24 or 48 weeks.
NCT01202149
This is an investigator-blinded, bilateral comparison study in 30 subjects with atopic dermatitis. It is designed to assess and compare the efficacy of Elidel® (pimecrolimus) cream 1% and Hylatopic™ Plus Emollient Foam™ in subjects with atopic dermatitis. Subjects will apply Elidel® (pimecrolimus) cream 1% twice daily for four weeks on a chosen target eczematous area located on one side of the body and then apply Hylatopic™ Plus Emollient Foam™ three times daily on a symmetrical target eczematous area on the opposite side of the body. A randomized list will be created to determine which side the subject applies each medication. Subjects will be consented prior to any study evaluations or procedures. After signing the consent and meeting all inclusion/exclusion criteria, qualified and enrolled subjects will apply study medication (Elidel® and Hylatopic™ Plus Emollient Foam™) to chosen affected areas for four weeks. Photography will be used to record the location of target lesions at the baseline, week two and week four/final visits. Subject's disease status will be assessed by two methods: 1) Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) and 2) Target Lesion Symptom Score (TLSS) (see sections V.B.2 and V.B.3). PGA as well as TLSS will be made at baseline (Day 0), week two (Day 14 +/- 2 days) and week 4/final visit (Day 28 +/- 2days) visits for each of the target lesions. Half scales (i.e. 0.5, 1.5) will not be used. The presence or absence of skin atrophy and telangiectasias will be noted at each study visit as well. Additionally, subjects' self-assessments of their perception of degree of disease and itching severity control will be collected at each visit for each target lesion. This assessment will be made using a four point scale and Itch Severity Scale (visual analogue score) respectively (see section V.B.4). Lastly, subjects will take a Product Preference Survey at week 4/final visit (Day 28 +/- 2days). Parents (or guardians) will moderate Product Preference Surveys for subjects that are younger than 12 years of age.
NCT00002224
Didanosine is an effective anti-HIV drug, but it can cause stomach upset. This study tests a new form of didanosine, ddI EC, a coated pill that passes through the stomach more easily and hopefully will prevent stomach upset. The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of ddI EC versus the standard form of ddI. Both forms of ddI will be given with stavudine (d4T) plus nelfinavir (NLF).
NCT00116415
