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
NCT01126502
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and the best dose of alvespimycin hydrochloride in treating patients with relapsed chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), or B-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (B-PLL). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as alvespimycin hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
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.
NCT00247312
The purpose of this study is to determine the most appropriate radiation implant dose for palladium-103 monotherapy. Radiation dose is related to potential cure. From previously published studies, it appears that the prescribed radiation dose can be reduced by 14-20% without any difference in potential cure (in this study, the dose is being decreased 10%). Although most patients tolerate brachytherapy well, complications to appear to be related to radiation exposure to normal structures (i.e. urethra, rectum and proximal penis). By reducing the prescribed dose, it is conceivable that fewer patients will experience side effects and complications.
NCT01856881
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics following ascending multiple doses of AMG 876 in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
NCT01644474

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.
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.
NCT02443090
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of fispemifene in men with secondary hypogonadism and sexual side effects.
NCT00075023
This study was designed to be conducted in 2 parts. The first part is a pilot study to test the effects of topical thalidomide gel 20mg applied to up to 3 oral ulcers in patients who have developed oral chronic graft-versus-host-disease (cGVHD)-related ulcerative stomatitis following allogeneic bone marrow/peripheral blood stem cell transplant (HSCT). Chronic GVHD may be related to increased levels of a cytokine called TNF-alpha (TNFa) following HSCT. Thalidomide's anti-inflammatory effects may lower TNFa levels, lead to healing of these oral ulcers, and decrease oral pain. If the pilot study is successful, the second part of the study will be done. This will test the effects of a 0.1% (20mg) thalidomide mouthwash in treating oral cGVHD-related stomatitis in patients following allogeneic HSCT. Applying thalidomide directly to the GVHD-related mouth ulcer in gel form or to the entire oral cavity in mouthwash form rather than taking it in pill form may reduce the amount of drug that enters the blood stream and cause less side effects. In the pilot study, participants will be randomly assigned to receive thalidomide gel 20mg or placebo (identical gel with no thalidomide) to use 4 times a day for 4 weeks. In the mouthwash study, participants will be randomly assigned to receive 0.1% 20mg thalidomide mouthwash or placebo (identical mouth rinse with no thalidomide) to use 4 times a day for 4 weeks. Participants will undergo the following procedures before beginning experimental treatment, then once a week for 4 weeks, and then approximately 8 weeks after the first visit: * Interview about current medications and use of alcohol and cigarettes * Self-report of mouth and throat pain * Oral examination for stomatitis rating, and oral ulcer(s) measurement * Quality of life questionnaire (repeated only at week 8 of the study) * Mouth photography to measure and record the oral ulcer response to treatment * Saliva sampling to look for proinflammatory cytokines (small proteins), including TNFa * Oral ulcer exudate collected by filter paper to obtain fluid for measuring TNFa levels * Gentle swabbing of oral ulcers to culture for virus, fungus, and bacteria that may be present * Small punch biopsy of the area near the ulcer or affected area to check for presence of TNFa (repeated only at week 4 of the study) * Blood sampling to monitor TNFa levels * A urine pregnancy test for women who are able to have children (repeated at weeks 2, 4, and 8)
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.
NCT01830205
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of renal function impairment on the single dose pharmacokinetics of Daclatasvir.
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.
