NCT00326898
This randomized phase III trial studies sunitinib malate to see how well it works compared to sorafenib tosylate or placebo in treating patients with kidney cancer that has been removed by surgery. Sunitinib malate and sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sunitinib malate or sorafenib tosylate after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It is not yet known whether sunitinib malate is more effective than sorafenib tosylate or placebo in treating kidney cancer.
NCT00617708
This randomized phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of monoclonal antibody therapy when given together with gemcitabine hydrochloride and erlotinib hydrochloride and to see how well they work compared with giving gemcitabine hydrochloride and erlotinib hydrochloride alone as first-line therapy in treating patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies 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 tumor-killing substances to them. Giving erlotinib hydrochloride and gemcitabine hydrochloride together with monoclonal antibody therapy may kill more tumor cells.
NCT00096200
Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth and by stopping blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving sorafenib together with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells. This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving sorafenib together with paclitaxel and carboplatin works in treating patients with recurrent ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer. (Sorafenib only group closed as of 10/10/2008).
NCT03669588

NCT02021279
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of MatriStem Pelvic Floor Matrix as compared to native tissue repair for the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse. Patients are evaluated throughout a 3 year follow-up period.
NCT00698815
This randomized phase II trial studies pemetrexed disodium and sunitinib malate to compare how well they work when given alone or together as second-line therapy in treating patients with stage IIIB or stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as pemetrexed disodium, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Sunitinib malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. It is not yet known whether pemetrexed disodium and sunitinib malate are more effective when given alone or together in treating non-small cell lung cancer.
NCT01057121
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide and to see how well it works in treating patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related Kaposi sarcoma (KS). Lenalidomide may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
NCT02982941
This study is a Phase 1, open-label, dose escalation and cohort expansion trial designed to characterize the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, immunogenicity and preliminary antitumor activity of enoblituzumab administered IV on a weekly schedule for up to 96 doses (approximately 2 years) in children and young adults with B7-H3-expressing relapsed or refractory malignant solid tumors.
NCT02723864
Background: The drug cisplatin treats certain cancers when given with other chemotherapy drugs. Researchers think combining cisplatin with 2 other drugs could block proteins that support cancer cell growth. The other drugs are ABT-888 (veliparib) and M6620 (VX-970). They want to test if this drug combination slows the growth of cancer and is safe. Objectives: To test the safety and tolerability of VX-970 and veliparib combined with cisplatin in people with advanced refractory solid tumors. To determine the maximum tolerated dose of these drugs. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with: * Solid tumors that have progressed after treatment or for which no treatment exists * Normal organ and marrow function Design: Participants will be screened with: * Medical history * Physical exam * Computed tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) * Blood and urine tests Participants will get the study drugs in 3-week cycles: * Cisplatin in a vein on 1 or 2 days * VX-970 in a vein on 2 days * Veliparib by mouth twice a day on 6 days In each cycle, participants will have 5 physical exams and blood tests 5 times. In some cycles, participants will have CT scans or MRIs. In cycle 1, participants may have 2 tumor biopsies. A small piece of tissue is removed by needle. Participants will keep a study diary. They will write when they take the drugs and if they have side effects. Participants will stay in the study as long as they tolerate the drugs and their tumors are not getting worse. Participants will have a phone call about a month after their last dose.
NCT04599725
This pilot study is designed to obtain data on the safety, acceptability, and feasibility of providing abortion by direct-to-patient telemedicine and mail.
NCT01391143
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of MGA271 when given by intravenous (IV) infusion to patients with refractory cancer. The study will also evaluate how long MGA271 stays in the blood and how long it takes for it to leave the body, what is the highest dose that can safely be given, and whether it may have an effect on tumors.
NCT02248805
The primary goal of this Phase 1 study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of MGD007 and establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and schedule of MGD007 administered to patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma. Pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and the anti-tumor activity of MGD007 will also be assessed.
NCT04195854
This is a retrospective chart review performed at multiple clinics aimed at providing real-world evidence of the use and safety of the P4HB scaffold. Data on patient demographics, relevant medical history, product and procedure used, product safety, and outcome measures will be collected as available.
NCT03764072
This study will evaluate the dose-response relationship and safety of VX-150 in treating acute pain following bunionectomy.
NCT03711799
There has been a lack of research on the unique needs of families with autism in the African-American and Latino communities. The process of screening, evaluation and treatment for children with autism can be long and arduous, especially in these communities. This often means that the best interventions for children with autism are not reaching minority communities. For many families, the complexity of the services system leads to a long wait after the initial diagnosis before accessing intervention. This means that the children have delayed access to treatment. Mind the Gap is a study that seeks to provide immediate and culturally appropriate support for families who have just received diagnosis but have yet to receive treatment. This support will be provided in families' native languages and, through the use of phone and video sessions, can accommodate busy schedules. Mind the Gap participants will be randomized to receive one of two conditions, which are 1.Resources only (online training modules and paper or on line resource lists, but no peer coaching) 2. Peer coaching (will receive all online training access). The peer coaches will be recruited from local parent support agencies. They will not be professionals in the field of ASD, but they will be trained by the research group on how to access the online tools and how to work whith families. They will contact the participants via phone or video conference on a weekly basis and an in- person visit per month for 3 months. Peer coaches will have a monthly call with participants for an additional nine months.We hope that this study will help the African American and Latino communities receive services sooner than currently reported. We also hope that in the future, parent organizations will use these tools to help families that have recently received an ASD diagnosis will us navigate the complex system of attaining services.
NCT03531632
The primary goal of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MGD007 when combined with MGA012. Pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics (PD), and the anti-tumor activity of the combination of MGD007 and MGA012 will also be assessed.
NCT02370706
This is a phase Ib study with the primary purpose is to estimate the MTD and/or RDE for the triple combination of PIM447, formerly LGH447, plus ruxolitinib and LEE011 as well as for the doublets, PIM447 plus ruxolitinib, and LEE011 plus ruxolitinib, in patients with myelofibrosis (MF). Each regimen will be assessed for safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamic effects, and preliminary anti-myelofibrosis activity, including changes in spleen volume, JAK2V617F allele burden, and hematologic response.
NCT02381314
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of enoblituzumab (MGA271) in combination with Yervoy (ipilimumab) when given to patients with B7-H3-expressing melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other B7-H3 expressing cancers. The study will also evaluate what is the best dose of enoblituzumab to use when given with ipilimumab. Assessments will also be done to see how the drug acts in the body (pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics) and to evaluate potential anti-tumor activity of enoblituzumab in combination with ipilimumab.
NCT02626507
This is a dose-escalation Phase Ib clinical trial in 18 patients with newly diagnosed Stage I-IV ER+/HER2- breast cancer, with the primary cancer in place. These patients have not received prior therapy for their breast cancer and intend to undergo surgery after four cycles of therapy. This is an open-label study, and investigators and subjects are not blinded to the treatment. The reason for using an open-label study design is because this is a dose-escalation trial, and the investigators need to determine the potential toxicity before a decision can be made to continue the dose escalation procedures. The assignment of patients will not be randomized, as this is a dose-escalation trial.
NCT03111992
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and identify the recommended doses of single agent CJM112, and of CJM112 or LCL161 in combination with PDR001, in patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma.
