NCT00373256
To compare treatment with SU011248 plus paclitaxel versus bevacizumab plus paclitaxel to determine which treatment works better against breast cancer
NCT01281657
The purpose of this observational study is to collect long-term data on safety and effectiveness of fingolimod, particularly including clinical disease and patient outcome related parameters such as relapse and disability, in patients who have participated in prior trials within the fingolimod clinical development program. Furthermore, this study explores the incidence of selected safety related outcomes of fingolimod treatment during follow-up visits within the context of routine medical practice.
NCT00246571
The purpose of this study is to compare progression free survival for SU011248 \[sutent (sunitinib malate)\] versus standard of care therapy in patients with previously treated, advanced, triple receptor negative (ER, PR, HER2) locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer.
NCT00094055
This is a Phase 2 study being conducted at multiple centers in the United States. Patients having thyroid cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (i.e., metastatic) are eligible to participate. Patients must have disease that was not controlled by previous treatment with radioactive iodine (131I) or not be good candidates for such treatment. The purpose of the study is to test whether the angiogenesis inhibitor AG-013736 is an effective treatment for metastatic thyroid cancer as shown by the number of patients in the study who experience significant and durable tumor shrinkage.
NCT00048633
The primary objective of this phase II study is to assess if XR9576, a selective MDR-1 inhibitor, is able to reverse primary doxorubicin or taxane resistance in advanced breast cancer. Clinical activity will be measured by objective tumor response rates observed after treatment with XR9576 in combination with taxane or anthracycline containing chemotherapy in patients previously resistant to the same agent(s). The secondary objectives of the study are to assess the biological activity of XR9576 and evaluate MDR-1 expression in these tumors. The MDR-1 inhibitory activity of XR9576 will be evaluated by serial sestamibi scans of the tumor. MDR-1 expression will be detected by immunohistochemistry.
NCT00454649
To determine the best dose of this investigational agent AG-013736 in combination with various standard of care treatments for advanced solid tumors.
NCT00436657
There has been no successful treatment of diffuse peritoneal metastasis or carcinomatosis, in childhood tumors. Once this advanced stage of disease is evident, survival is measured in weeks. The selective lethal effect of supranormal temperatures on neoplastic cells and the additive or synergistic effect of combining chemotherapy has been well established in adult clinical trials using continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion (CHPP) for advanced peritoneal adenocarcinoma of gastrointestinal origin, ovarian carcinoma and mesothelioma. This phase I study will evaluate the safety of continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion with escalating doses of intraperitoneal cisplatin in the treatment of children with refractory tumors limited to the abdominal cavity. If tumors are outside the abdominal cavity, the tumors must be able to be controlled. Since CHPP has potential to improve outcome of children with peritoneal and retroperitoneal metastases, this study will evaluate the safety of elevated temperature (40oC) with intraperitoneal cisplatin chemotherapy. Primary Objectives: 1. To determine the MTD and dose-limiting toxicity of intraperitoneal cisplatin given in combination with CHPP as a 90 minute perfusion in children with advanced peritoneal and retroperitoneal solid tumors 2. To determine the safe and tolerable dose of CHPP with cisplatin to be used in Phase II trials 3. To determine the pharmacokinetics of intraperitoneal cisplatin platinum given with CHPP as a 90 minute abdominal perfusion (Optional)
NCT00403221
The purpose of this study is to conduct a Phase I clinical trial involving in situ RTVP-1 gene therapy for prostate cancer. We will conduct necessary safety evaluations on a new adenovirus that contains the human genes for RTVP-1. This virus will then be evaluated for safety in men with prostate cancer prior to radical prostatectomy. Based on the preclinical data, we hope that this treatment will induce not only a local cytotoxic and antiangiogenic effect but also, a systemic antitumor immune response capable of eradicating micrometastatic disease (the reason for recurrence in many of these patients).
NCT00137436
This is a multi-center, open-label, Phase 1/2 study of SU011248 (sunitinib malate, SUTENT) in combination with docetaxel and prednisone for the first-line treatment of metastatic hormone-refractory prostate cancer (mHRPC).
NCT00057720
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate superiority in survival in favor of TLK286 as compared to active control therapy with Doxil/Caelyx or Hycamtin in the intent-to-treat (ITT) populations.
NCT00052065
This is a dose-ranging, open-label, Phase 1-2a study of TLK286 in combination with Doxil in patients with platinum refractory or resistant ovarian cancer.
NCT00906308
This phase 3a study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of MF101 on the frequency of moderate to severe hot flushes in postmenopausal women.
NCT01323933
Analysis of safety, tolerability, and PK data will provide information that will guide future development of AB0024.
NCT00516841
To evaluate the efficacy of voloxicimab when administered at 15 mg/kg qwk in subjects with platinum-resistant, advanced epithelial ovarian cancer or primary peritoneal cancer.
NCT00484536
The objective of the study is to evaluate the effect, safety and tolerability of CDP323 in patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis
NCT00048659
The purpose of this study is to determine if patients who take YM598 in addition to mitoxantrone and prednisone (standard therapy) experience improvement in the pain associated with prostate cancer metastases in the bone.
NCT00031187
SGN-15 is being investigated for therapy of patients with prostate cancer in combination with the cytotoxic agent, Taxotere. The study is an open label, randomized phase II study for patients with documented hormone refractory prostate cancer who have not had any prior therapy with Taxotere or Novantrone. Both SGN-15 and Taxotere will be administered weekly over two 6 week courses separated by a 2 week rest period.
NCT00373113
To compare efficacy and safety of Sunitinib and Capecitabine in subjects with advanced breast cancer who failed both a taxane and an anthracycline chemotherapy regimen or failed with a taxane and for whom further anthracycline therapy is not indicated
NCT00129961
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of sirolimus on the prevention of new non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) in kidney transplant recipients.
NCT00289978
This study assessed the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of 2 doses of oral fingolimod (1.25 mg/day and 0.5 mg/day) compared to placebo in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS)
