NCT02279498
Liprotamase powder is a non-porcine, soluble and stable mixture of three digestive enzymes including lipase, protease, and amylase. The purpose of the present study is to provide additional efficacy and safety data compared to approved, porcine-derived, enterically-coated and encapsulated pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy. The primary efficacy endpoint of the study will be comparative efficacy measured as the change in the coefficient of fat absorption (CFA) in Cystic Fibrosis patients with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). Liprotamase is stable in stomach and digestive fluids allowing administration in a variety of convenient formulations and with a number of foods without enteric coating.
NCT02049489
This study will evaluate a type of immunotherapy in which the patient's immune system will be stimulated to kill tumor cells. ICT-121 dendritic cell (DC)vaccine is made from patient's white blood cells. This vaccine will be tested in patients with recurrent glioblastoma to assess safety, tolerability and clinical response. Patient's white blood cells (WBC) will be collected from blood and cultured to yield autologous DC. The DC will be mixed with purified peptides from the CD133 antigen. The DC vaccine will be given back to the patient over several months. The goal is to stimulate the patient's immune system to CD133 to kill the patient's glioblastoma tumor cells.
NCT01597492
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of belimumab on immune response to pneumococcal vaccine in subjects with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).
NCT00282295
New immunization recommendations in the US include vaccination of adolescents against pertussis and meningococcal disease. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that Tdap (Tetanus Toxoid, Reduced Diphtheria Toxoid And Acellular Pertussis Vaccine Adsorbed) and MCV4 (Meningococcal conjugate vaccine against serotypes A, C, Y and W-135) vaccines be administered to adolescents at the same office visit if vaccination with both vaccines is indicated. Therefore, this study is designed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of a booster vaccination with Boostrix co-administered with Menactra as compared to the administration of either vaccine alone in healthy adolescents 11 - 18 years of age.
NCT01607658
The purpose of this study is to assess and compare the effects of 3 dose strengths of TBS-2 intranasal testosterone gel to placebo on the occurrence of orgasm.
NCT01561261
The long-term objective is to develop a tool to aid in making a timely and accurate diagnosis of acute compartment syndrome (ACS). The immediate objective is to develop a model to accurately predict the likelihood of ACS based on data available to the clinician within the first 48 hours of injury (specific clinical findings supplemented by muscle oxygenation measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), and continuous intramuscular pressure (IMP) and perfusion pressure (PP) monitoring). Our primary outcome is the retrospective assessment of the likelihood of compartment syndrome made by a panel of clinicians using the following data: * A physiologic "fingerprint" composed of continuous pressure versus time curve, continuous oximetry values, response of muscle to fasciotomy when performed, and serum biomarkers of muscle injury (CPK levels). * Clinical and functional outcomes at 6 months post-injury including: sensory exam, muscle function, presence/absence of myoneural deficit, and patient reported function using the Short Musculoskeletal Function Assessment (SMFA).
NCT00782626
The purpose of this research study is to learn if the study drug RAD001 can shrink or slow the growth of low-grade gliomas. Additionally, the safety of RAD001 will be studied. RAD001 is a drug that may act directly on tumor cells by inhibiting tumor cell growth and proliferation.
NCT00300781

NCT01907802
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of dabrafenib in treating patients with solid tumors and kidney or liver dysfunction. Dabrafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT00706030
The purpose of this study is to identify the highest tolerable dose of neratinib (HKI-272) in combination with vinorelbine and to assess the safety of the combination of the two drugs as well as to obtain preliminary information on whether the combination of the two drugs has any effect on solid tumors. The study will be conducted in two parts. In the first part, testing will be done on up to 12 subjects to determine the highest tolerable dose of HKI-272 and vinorelbine in patients with advanced solid tumors. In the second part of the study, approximately 60 additional subjects with metastatic ErbB-2-positive breast cancer, with no prior exposure to lapatinib, are planned to be added to better define the tolerability and preliminary activity of HKI-272 in combination with vinorelbine. Up to 20 additional subjects with ErbB-2-positive breast cancer with prior lapatinib exposure are also planned to be enrolled in part 2 for exploratory analyses.
NCT01473420
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate therapeutic equivalence of subcutaneous (SC) Epoetin Hospira compared to SC Epogen (Amgen), based on maintenance of hemoglobin (Hb) levels and study drug dose requirements in patients treated for anemia associated with chronic renal failure and on hemodialysis.
NCT01188850
DNA vaccines, which are small pieces of DNA also known as plasmids, have several advantages over traditional vaccines such as live attenuated virus and recombinant protein-based vaccines. DNA vaccines appear to be well tolerated in humans. Therefore, the investigators have developed our DNA vaccine, VGX-3100, to include plasmids targeting E6 and E7 proteins of both HPV subtypes 16 and 18. The investigators have chosen to deliver our candidate vaccines via electroporation (EP) using the CELLECTRA constant current device to deliver a small electric charge following intramuscular (IM) injection, since animal studies have shown that this delivery method increases the immune response to our DNA vaccine leading to a decrease in the size of tumors caused by HPV 16 and 18. In study HPV-001, the vaccine was given to subjects with a history of CIN 2 and 3 who had been previously treated by surgery. This study is proposed to vaccinate the same subjects with a fourth dose of the VGX-3100 to determine the safety and immune response.
NCT00255801
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as liposomal doxorubicin and bexarotene, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Bexarotene may also cause cutaneous T-cell lymphoma cells to look more like normal cells, and to grow and spread more slowly. Giving liposomal doxorubicin followed by bexarotene may be an effective treatment for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving liposomal doxorubicin followed by bexarotene works in treating patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.
NCT00777114
This will be a multi-center, Phase I, dose-escalation study of bortezomib in combination with 131I-tositumomab in patients with relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Bortezomib will be administered to patients twice weekly, with the first dose being given two days prior to the treatment dose of 131I-tositumomab, and the second dose two days after RIT for a total of 5 doses. Patients will be enrolled and undergo standard staging studies, including history, physical examination, complete blood count, serum chemistries and LDH, TSH, HAMA, iliac crest bone marrow biopsy, and CT scans of the chest, abdomen and pelvis. All patients will provide written informed consent. Bortezomib will be evaluated at 4 dose levels (0.30 mg/m2, 0.60 mg/m2, 0.90 mg/m2, and 1.2 mg/m2) and 131I-tositumomab at 2 dose levels (50 cGy and 75 cGy TBD). Bortezomib will be administrated the day prior to 131I-tositumomab and twice weekly thereafter for 4 doses in order to provide proteasome inhibition throughout the period of 131I-tositumomab activity. The intention is to use 131I-tositumomab at full dose if possible. Therefore, the 50cGy dose will be used only with the lowest dose of bortezomib in case of unexpected toxicities with the combination. Dose levels will be as follow: 1. 0.30mg/m2 bortezomib and 50cGy 131I-tositumomab, 2. 0.30 mg/m2 bortezomib and 75 cGy 131I-tositumomab, 3. 0.60 mg/m2 bortezomib and 75 cGy 131I-tositumomab, 4. 0.90 mg/m2 bortezomib and 75 cGy 131I-tositumomab, and 5. 1.2 mg/m2 bortezomib and 75 cGy 131I-tositumomab.

NCT01026142
This randomized, two-arm study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a combination of trastuzumab and capecitabine with or without pertuzumab in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer. The study population consisted of female patients, whose disease had progressed during or following previous trastuzumab therapy for metastatic disease. All patients in Arm A and Arm B received trastuzumab (8 mg/kg iv as loading dose and then 6 mg/kg iv every 3 weeks thereafter) and capecitabine oral twice daily for 14 days every 3 weeks (1250 mg/m2 twice daily in Arm A and 1000 mg/m2 twice daily in Arm B). In addition, patients in Arm B received pertuzumab (840 mg iv as loading dose and then 420 mg iv thereafter) every 3 weeks. Study treatment continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
NCT01911325
This is a multi-center, open-label Phase Ib dose escalation part followed by a randomized double-blinded placebo controlled Phase II part. The Phase Ib part will determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)/Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) of buparlisib in combination with docetaxel. Subsequently the MTD/RP2D will be investigated in a Phase II randomized trial in patients with advanced or metastatic squamous NSCLC.
NCT01923311
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability and steady-state PK and confirm the dose of EVG/r in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment-experienced children 4 weeks to \<18 years of age.
