NCT00553202
RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant using stem cells that closely match the patient's stem cells, helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also stops the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving antithymocyte globulin before transplant and cyclosporine, tacrolimus, and methotrexate before and after transplant may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: Natural Killer (NK) cells from the donor's bone marrow may be important in fighting leukemia. Bone marrow donors can be selected based on the type of NK cells they have, specifically the killer immunoglobulin receptor (KIR) type. This study provides information on KIR type from potential donors, which can be used in selecting the bone marrow donor. This phase II trial of unrelated donor stem cell transplant in patients with high risk AML (monosomy 7, -5/5q-, high FLT3-ITD AR, or refractory or relapsed AML) in which KIR typing of the patients and potential donors will be available to the treating transplant physician at the time of donor selection.
NCT03335059
This study will determine whether Synergo® RITE + MMC treatment is efficacious as second-line therapy for CIS NMIBC BCG-unresponsive patients with or without papillary NMIBC, through examination of the complete response rate (CRR) and disease-free duration for complete responders. The study will also explore progression-free survival time, bladder preservation rate, and overall survival time. The study will address an unmet need to identify a treatment effective in both ablating the disease and providing a prolonged disease-free period for patients. Ideally, the treatment will delay progression to invasive disease, thus preserving the bladder.
NCT02753673
The purpose of this study is to develop a questionnaire to measure patient expectations of breast-conserving therapy (breast-conserving surgery and radiation). This questionnaire will assist both surgeons and patients by helping provide valuable information to patients about what to expect during and after surgery.
NCT03229265
Hyperkalemia (high potassium in blood) is a common condition found in kidney transplant patients. Risk factors include poor kidney function and exposure to various drugs. Regardless of the causes, current treatment options are limited. Previously, the only available potassium binder for lowering potassium in the blood is sodium polystyrene sulfonate, which has unknown drug interaction profile with transplant medications. Patiromer is a newly approved potassium binder indicated for the treatment of hyperkalemia. Kidney transplant patients with hyperkalemia may benefit from patiromer. However, the interaction of patiromer and transplant medications has not been studied. The goal of this study is to look into the drug interactions between patiromer and transplant medications.
NCT01045499
Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) has been used worldwide to help selected morbidly obese adults to lose weight. The FDA has approved LAGB only for patients 18 years or older. Our hypothesis that LAGB can be used to assist selected adolescents between 14 and 17 years lose weight and that the procedure can be performed safely in this age group. We are also evaluating the effects of weight loss after LAGB on known comorbid conditions such as sleep apnea syndrome and insulin resistance, and also on psychological health.
NCT01628159
The purpose of the study is to collect additional safety and efficacy information on the Lutonix (formerly Moxy) Drug Coated Balloon for treatment of stenosis or occlusion of the femoral and popliteal arteries.
NCT01848249
Compared to chronic dialysis, kidney transplantation provides recipients with longer survival and better quality of life at a lower cost. In order to meet increasing demands for kidney allografts, kidneys from older and sicker donors are being procured. This has led to greater discard rates of donated kidneys as well as more complications for recipients, including shorter allograft survival. Available clinical models to predict kidney allograft quality have poor prognostic ability and do not asses the degree of kidney allograft injury. However, allograft injury near the time of procurement can lead to major consequences for the transplant recipient: greater risks of delayed graft function, poor allograft function and premature loss of the transplant. Our proposal is based on the hypotheses that novel biomarkers measured in donor urine and transport media at the time of procurement can assess acute and chronic kidney injury and that distinct biomarker patterns will predict allograft survival. In collaboration with five organ procurement organizations, we will collect urine samples from consecutive deceased donors and samples of transport solution for every pumped kidney. We will measure markers of injury, repair, inflammation and fibrosis. We will determine mortality and allograft survival in all patients by linkage to the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) database (Overall Cohort). Additionally, we will perform a detailed chart review of a subset of recipients (detailed cohort) and will also examine associations between biomarkers and longitudinal graft function over five years after transplant. Early, non-invasive and rapid assessment of donor kidney injury could drive better allocation decisions and potentially reduce the rates of post-transplant complications. Further, these new tools could provide a platform for clinical trials of therapies for allografts and kidney transplant recipients aimed at ameliorating allograft injury.
NCT02384460
The aim was to assess the efficacy and safety of SD-101-6.0 cream versus Placebo (SD-101-0.0) cream in the treatment of skin lesions in participants with Epidermolysis Bullosa. Funding Source - United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD).
NCT02728934
The purpose of this study is to compare the proportion of patients with an infusion reaction in Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients treated with Golimumab Intravenous (IV) or Infliximab.
NCT00041288
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. Peripheral stem cell transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Sometimes the transplanted cells are rejected by the body's normal tissues. Cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil, methotrexate, and tacrolimus may prevent this from happening. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of fludarabine plus total-body irradiation with that of combination chemotherapy followed by donor peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
NCT02790606

NCT03477214
Urinary incontinence (UI) and overactive bladder (OAB) in women has high prevalence which is increasing with the age. In adults aged 40 and older in the US demonstrated prevalence rate of 27.2% among man and 43.1% among women, respectively. Urine Incontinence was reported to affect 15% of women ages 40 to 49, 25% ages 60 to 69, and 38% of women age 80 and older.
NCT00227903
The purpose of this study is... To assess whether a behavioral treatment that combines motivational enhancement and cognitive skills training therapy (MET-CBT) is more effective than brief advice in: 1) decreasing use of a full range of psychoactive substances (e.g. marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamines, alcohol, nicotine, opioids) in pregnant substance using and dependent women; 2) decreasing HIV risk behavior; 3) improving birth outcomes (longer gestations and greater birth weight).
NCT01557790
Phase II study using Proton radiation therapy to treat males, aged 18 years or older, with Stage I, IIA and IIB Seminoma. This research study will be done in conjunction with the Robert H. Burr Proton Therapy Center at the Mass. General Hospital and the Department of Defense. In the feasibility portion of the study patients will be evaluated to determine acute toxicity. If the study is deemed feasible the principal investigator (PI) hopes that proton RT will reduce the lethargy rate as compared to photon radiation therapy (RT).
