NCT00003854
RATIONALE: Biopsy of sentinel lymph nodes and bone marrow may improve the ability to detect and determine the extent of cancer. PURPOSE: Phase III prognostic study of sentinel lymph node metastases and bone marrow metastases in women who have stage I or stage IIA breast cancer.
NCT00151164
The investigators hypothesize that injecting donor bone marrow cells into the recipient thymus gland at the time of heart transplantation in children will prove to be feasible and safe. They further hypothesize that recipients receiving donor bone marrow will experience less acute rejection events with reduced long-term requirements for immunosuppressive medications when compared to controls who do not receive marrow but who are managed under an identical immunosuppressive protocol.
NCT00336856
Research Hypothesis: Subjects in the study population who are treated with cetuximab in combination with irinotecan will have higher response rates than subjects treated with irinotecan alone.
NCT00177307
This is a Phase II study of the drug combination of Oxaliplatin, Avastin and capecitabine. This is an open-label study.
NCT01993888
To evaluate the safety and hemostatic effectiveness of EVARREST® Fibrin Sealant Patch (EVARREST) versus standard of care treatment (SoC) in controlling parenchymal bleeding during hepatic surgery.
NCT01064401
The primary study objective is to test the superiority of Daclizumab High Yield Process (DAC HYP) compared to interferon β 1a (IFN β-1a) in preventing multiple sclerosis (MS) relapse in participants with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis. The secondary study objectives are to test the superiority of DAC HYP compared to IFN β-1a in slowing functional decline and disability progression and maintaining quality of life in this participant population.
NCT00377247
The primary goal of this study is to determine if the vaccine can be safely given to subjects, and to see what side effects occur (both good and bad) when they are given this experimental tumor vaccine. During this study, investigators intend to watch for tumor response while examining the effects of this vaccine on the body's immune system after it is given.
NCT00769704
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with talimogene laherparepvec compared to subcutaneously administered GM-CSF in patients with unresectable Stage IIIb, IIIc and Stage IV melanoma. The efficacy endpoints of the study aim to demonstrate overall clinical benefit for patients treated with talimogene laherparepvec as compared to GM-CSF.
NCT01747538
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of gevokizumab in reducing the risk of recurrent uveitic disease in subjects with non-infectious uveitis whose disease is currently controlled with systemic treatment.
NCT00003674
RATIONALE: Dalteparin may be effective in inhibiting the growth of blood vessels in tumors, decreasing the risk of metastatic cancer, preventing the formation of blood clots, and improving quality of life in treating patients with advanced cancer that has not responded to previous treatment. It is not yet known if standard therapy is more effective with or without dalteparin in treating advanced breast, lung, colorectal, and prostate cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized double blinded phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of standard therapy with or without dalteparin in treating patients who have advanced breast, lung, colorectal, or prostate cancer that has not responded to previous chemotherapy or hormone therapy.
NCT00006214
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs such as flutamide to try to prevent the development of cancer. Flutamide may be effective in the prevention of prostate cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized clinical trial to study the effectiveness of flutamide in preventing prostate cancer in patients who have neoplasia of the prostate.
NCT00006483
RATIONALE: Colony-stimulating factors such as sargramostim may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may be an effective treatment for patients with kidney cancer that has spread to the lung. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of sargramostim in treating patients who have kidney cancer that has spread to the lung.
NCT01659138
Primary Objective: To assess the efficacy of SAR339658 Secondary Objective: To assess the safety of SAR339658
NCT01979861
The purpose of this study is to determine if the AEGEA Vapor System for endometrial ablation is safe and effective for reducing menstrual blood loss in women with excessive uterine bleeding (menorrhagia)
NCT00003077
RATIONALE: Omega-3 fatty acids are used by the body for energy and tissue development and may be an effective treatment for patients with advanced cancer who are unable to maintain their body weight. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of omega-3 fatty acids in treating patients with advanced cancer who have significant weight loss.
NCT01260779
This compassionate use protocol provides expanded access for investigational use of PV-10 in cancer patients who are not eligible for an existing PV-10 clinical trial, for whom there is no comparable or satisfactory approved alternative therapy and whom, in the opinion of the investigator, may benefit from PV-10 administration.
NCT00529061
Sickle cell disease (SCD), also known as sickle cell anemia, is an inherited blood disease that can cause intense pain episodes. The purpose of this study is to gather medical information from children and adults with SCD and establish a database so that researchers can contact people to participate in future SCD research studies.
NCT02465320
The purpose of this study is to determine if COL-1077 (10% lidocaine vaginal bioadhesive gel) will be effective as an acute-use anesthetic and can decrease the pain intensity associated with gynecologic procedures using endometrial biopsy as a representative procedure.
NCT01111292
This pilot, randomized phase I/II trial studies how well inositol works in preventing colorectal cancer in patients with abnormal cells (dysplasia) associated with inflammation of the colon (colitis). Patients with colitis-associated dysplasia may have an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer. Inositol is a vitamin-like substance that may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
NCT01365481
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability profile of valsartan and valsartan-based treatments in children with hypertension, with or without chronic kidney disease.
