The study evaluated the safety and efficacy of nilotinib versus current treatment in adults with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) who have either progressed or who were intolerant to the first and second line treatments.
NCT01273064
Placebo controlled, double-blind, multicenter study utilizing standard of care (SOC) treatment (ribavirin plus pegylated interferon) in combination with CTS-1027 in genotype 1 chronic Hepatitis C (HCV) patients who were null-responders to previous SOC therapy(ies). Null-responders are defined as patients who failed to achieve a greater than 2 log drop in HCV-RNA (Hepatitis C Ribonucleic acid, also known as "viral load") levels after 12 weeks of treatment (know as an "early virologic response", or EVR) during previous SOC therapy. If, during previous SOC treatment, a patient had a less than 2 log decline in HCV-RNA at Week 12 but greater than 2 log decline in HCV-RNA at any time from Week 12 to Week 24, that patient is not a null-responder, and is excluded from study participation. If, during previous SOC treatment, a Week 12 HCV-RNA was not obtained, the post Week 12 response must have been \< 2 log decline (and still HCV-RNA positive) in order for the patient to be defined as a null-responder. Patients will be screened and have up to 4 weeks to qualify for study entry. During this screening period, clinical and laboratory tests will be performed. At Week 0/Day 1, patients will undergo centralized, stratified (based on ethnicity), randomization to one of four treatment arms: SOC + one of three doses of CTS-1027 or SOC + placebo. Study treatment will last 24, 48, or 60 weeks, based on each patient's response to study treatment. SOC + placebo patients who do not show a virologic response after 12 weeks of therapy will be rolled onto SOC + 15mg CTS-1027, while maintaining the study blind.
NCT00640042
The purpose of this study is to provide information in a broad, "real world" population of chronic pain patients assessing both pain control with AVINZA as well as the potential risk for misuse and abuse.
NCT00697827
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the In-Space compared to the X STOP Interspinous Process Distraction (IPD) device ("X STOP") for the treatment of patients experiencing intermittent neurogenic claudication secondary to moderate degenerative lumbar stenosis at one or two lumbar levels.
NCT00292864
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of one-hour infusions given once daily for 5 consecutive days in a 21-day treatment cycle; to define a recommended phase 2 dose; and to learn more about the clinical activity of SNS-032.
NCT00312975
The purpose of this trial is to study how long patients can remain progression free when they receive CP-675,206, compared to how long patients can remain progression free when they receive best supportive care. If you choose to take part, you will be randomized to receive either CP-675,206 as maintenance therapy or best supportive care. Best supportive care means you will not receive any study drug or other treatment for your cancer. Best supportive care could include treatment with antibiotics, analgesic drugs (medicine for pain), blood transfusions or psychosocial and nutritional support, depending on your needs. You have a 50% chance of being randomized to receive CP-675,206.
NCT00003669
RATIONALE: Estrogen can stimulate the growth of endometrial cancer cells. Hormone therapy using arzoxifene hydrochloride may fight the endometrial cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well arzoxifene hydrochloride works in treating women with recurrent, advanced, or metastatic endometrial cancer.
NCT00953147
This is a 6-month multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, efficacy and safety study of ciclesonide HFA nasal aerosol administered once-daily to male and female subjects 12 years or older diagnosed with perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR).
NCT00003127
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 II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients with metastatic, recurrent, or refractory endometrial cancer.
NCT00150397
This is an initial proof of concept, phase to study to assess the safety and efficacy tofimilast for the chronic maintenance treatment of adults with persistent asthma
NCT00895115
RATIONALE: Vitamin E supplements may stop or delay the development of prostate cancer in patients who are at risk of prostate cancer or who have prostate cancer. It is not yet known which vitamin E regimen is more effective in preventing prostate cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase I trial is comparing vitamin E supplement regimens to see how well they work in preventing cancer in patients at risk of prostate cancer or who have prostate cancer.
NCT00496600
This is an unblinded, dose escalation study of patupilone in combination with RAD001 in subjects with advanced cancer to find the maximum tolerated dose of each drug. The purpose of this study is to see what doses of RAD001 and patupilone are safe to use when the two drugs are used at the same time. Other goals in this study are to learn about the effect of RAD 001 and patupilone on tumor growth; to find out what amount of RAD001 is present in the blood when it is combined with patupilone; to learn about proteins in the blood that may predict or show an effect of RAD001 or patupilone and to learn if any changes are seen in the tumor with the type of test called a PET scan.Subjects will be assigned to a dosing group. The dose of patupilone and RAD001 a subject gets depends on when they enter onto this study. The initial subjects in the study will take the lowest doses of RAD001 and patupilone. At least 3 subjects will be treated in each dosing group starting with the smallest dose. If there are few or easy to handle side effects, the next group of at least 3 people to enter in the study will get the next higher dose. This continues until the highest dose of the study drug is found that does not cause serious or hard to treat side effects. Both the subjects and the study doctor will know which dose is assigned. In this study, RAD001 will be given as tablets to take with water. RAD001 will be taken for either 7, 14, or 21 days of each 21 day cycle depending on which dosing group is assigned. If taking RAD 001 and patupilone on the same day, then RAD 001 will be taken with water however prior to receiving patupilone.Patupilone will be given by an intravenous injection (through a vein) for 20 minutes on Days 1 or day 6 of the 21-day cycle. The patupilone dose will be based on height and weight. Blood tests (approximately 1-3 teaspoons) will be done every week. Every six weeks a CT scan or MRI will be done to assess the tumor size. Subjects will continue to receive RAD001 and patupilone as long as the tumor is stable or shrinking, and not having too many side effects from treatment.
NCT01012076
Eighty parent-child dyads will be recruited and randomly assigned to either the experimental intervention or an active control condition. Subjects assigned to the experimental group will participate in 12 home-based intervention sessions.
NCT00012363
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 II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating patients who have metastatic or recurrent cancer of the esophagus.
NCT00412412
The goal of this clinical research study is to study the drug CNF2024 as a single agent or in combination with trastuzumab in patients with advanced breast cancer and to: * find the highest dose of the drug CNF2024 as a single agent or in combination with trastuzumab that can be given safely * measure levels of CNF2024 as a single agent or in combination with trastuzumab in blood * determine if CNF2024 as a single agent or in combination with trastuzumab can stop breast cancer cells from growing
NCT00510419
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate an investigational auto-injector system for delivering sumatriptan under the skin for a single migraine attack. The study could take approximately 5 weeks and will include about 3 office visits to the study doctor, the patient will be contacted every 2 weeks until the patient experiences a migraine and uses the auto-injector. The last visit will be done by a telephone follow-up call.
