NCT00103844
The primary purpose of this study is to estimate the major cytogenetic response rates of BMS-354825 and imatinib (800 mg/d) in subjects with chronic phase, Philadelphia chromosome positive, chronic myeloid leukemia (PH+ CML) with disease resistant to imatinib at a dose of 400-600 mg/d.
NCT00362375
The purpose of this program evaluation is to determine whether the Health Love Workshop, a group-level HIV behavioral intervention, reduces HIV-related sex risk behaviors and increases HIV protective behaviors of African American women and women of African descent. The intent of this program is to support an evaluation of the efficacy of the intervention and to provide feedback to the implementing organization to increase intervention effectiveness.
NCT00491699
The purpose of this study is to determine the safest dose of XL999 and how well subjects with Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer tolerate XL999. XL999 is a small molecule inhibitor of multiple kinases including VEGFR, PDGFR, FGFR, FLT-3, and Src, which are involved in tumor cell growth, formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis), and metastasis.
NCT00097214
This is a phase II study in previously untreated subjects with histologically or cytologically proven stage IIIB/IV NSCLC designed to determine the efficacy of first line treatment with carboplatin and cetuximab.
NCT00319969
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the objective tumor response rate of amrubicin or standard topotecan therapy when administered as second-line therapy to ED-SCLC patients who have chemotherapy sensitive recurrent or progressive.
NCT00294931
This multicenter phase II trial is designed to study the unique combination of chemotherapy (irinotecan./carboplatin) and bevacizumab in the extensive-stage setting. This clinical setting seems ideal for evaluation of the role of bevacizumab in delaying progression and prolonging survival.
NCT00397293
This is an open label, multicenter Phase I/II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AT-101 in combination with topotecan in relapsed/refractory small cell lung cancer
NCT00070629
Eligible patients will be randomized in a ratio of 2:1 to receive either chemotherapy (a taxane and a platinum compound) plus CPG 7909 Injection or chemotherapy alone. Protocol therapy will be administered until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. CpG 7909 Injection will be administered subcutaneously, on Weeks 2 and 3 of each three-week cycle (days 8 and 15) and chemotherapy will be administered on Week 1 (Day 1). Patients will undergo complete disease evaluation at the end of every other treatment cycle until disease progression.
NCT00113516
The purpose of this study is to find out if SU011248 (sunitinib) provides additional benefit when it is given after treatment with two chemotherapy drugs carboplatin and paclitaxel and also if sunitinib is safe for patients with locally advanced and metastatic Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
NCT00003187
RATIONALE: Bone marrow transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy used to kill cancer cells. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Eliminating the T cells from the donor cells before transplanting them may prevent this from happening. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II/III trial to compare the effectiveness of conventional bone marrow transplantation with T cell-depleted bone marrow transplantation in treating patients who have leukemia, myelodysplasia, or lymphoblastic lymphoma.
NCT00085813
This study was designed to determine how effective and safe Ispinesib is in treating locally advanced or metastatic Non-small Cell Lung cancer in patients who have received a platinum-based chemotherapy and whose disease continues to progress. Treatment involves a 1-hr treatment given intravenously (IV), repeated once every 21 days. A patient may continue treatment as long as they are benefiting from the treatment. Blood samples will be taken at specific times over 24 hr period to measure the amount of drug in your body at specific times after the drug is given. Blood samples will also be taken for routine lab tests such as complete blood counts and clinical chemistries. Physical exams will be performed before each treatment.
NCT00116194
The purpose of this study is to gather preliminary data that will determine the feasibility of conducting a Phase III, randomized, controlled trial (RCT) that will provide definite evidence in the use of physical exercise to prevent mobility disability in older persons.
NCT00445874
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an anti-allergy drug with a contact lens compared to placebo in preventing ocular itching associated with allergic conjunctivitis
NCT00064584
This is the first study of the drug CT53518 when given to humans. The purpose of this study is to determine the highest dose of CT53518 that can safely be given to patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) and to identify the side effects associated with taking the drug. The study will evaluate how CT53518 is absorbed, broken down, and eliminated by the body. Additionally, the study will evaluate the effects of the drug on a specific type of cell in bone marrow and blood, known as a blast.
NCT00026611
The purpose of this study is to see how many people respond to a smallpox vaccine when a sore forms where the shot was given. The world was declared free of smallpox in 1980. General routine vaccinations for smallpox were stopped in the U.S. in 1971. In 1976, the recommendation for routine vaccination of healthcare workers was also discontinued. The only people who presently receive this vaccine are people who work with vaccinia virus or monkeypox virus. Because the world was considered free of smallpox infections, this vaccine was no longer produced; there is a limited supply available in the United States. Because of the limited amount of Dryvax vaccine (vaccinia virus) against smallpox, this study will look at the ability to dilute the vaccine making more doses available in the event of a smallpox outbreak. The study seeks to characterize a strategy of vaccination against smallpox with various doses of Dryvax, followed by revaccination with the same dose, if required, in volunteers 18-32 years of age with a negative history of smallpox vaccination.
NCT00017342
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining bryostatin 1 with cytarabine in treating patients who have relapsed primary acute myelogenous leukemia.
NCT00003079
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of bryostatin 1 and high dose cytarabine in treating patients with refractory or relapsed acute myelocytic or acute lymphocytic leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia or refractory or relapsed lymphoblastic lymphoma.
NCT00363974
The purpose of this study is to determine if the drug, called AEG35156, can be safely given to AML patients and whether it effectively reduces levels of a protein (XIAP) to increase the sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapy (ara-C and idarubicin) in patients with refractory or relapsed AML.
NCT00964132
The purpose of this study is to determine whether NRX 194204 is effective in the treatment of advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
NCT00516100
Pemetrexed is an FDA-approved treatment for advanced lung cancer but the response rate is still very low. Bortezomib is currently approved to treat myeloma in patients who have already been treated. Currently, multiple studies are actively investigating how well bortezomib works with other drugs. This study is testing how much bortezomib can be given to advanced lung cancer patients who have already received one treatment. This study will also see how well bortezomib and pemetrexed work together to treat lung cancer patients.
