NCT00710970
The major objective of this two-stage phase II study is to determine whether tamoxifen is deserving of further study in metastatic bladder cancer. Tamoxifen is expected to function as a cytostatic (and not cytotoxic) agent, and may produce more disease stability than regression. Sustained stable disease is considered to be clinically important and the more likely event. Hence, 4-month freedom from progression is chosen as the primary end-point instead of response rate. Freedom from progression is defined as the period from start of therapy to the time of objective radiologic progression. A total of 25 subjects will be enrolled, 15 during stage 1 and 10 during stage 2 of a two-stage minimax design phase II study. Pre-therapy evaluation (within 3 weeks of initiation of therapy): * History and physical examination (H and P) * Performance status (PS) assessment * CBC (complete blood counts) * CMP (complete metabolic profile) * Pregnancy test (in women younger than 50) * Computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest, abdomen and pelvis * Bone scan if bone pain or raised alkaline phosphatase * Biopsy (may use previous biopsy specimen) * Samples of plasma from the routine CBC and CMP will be banked indefinitely for future biomarker studies at the Scott Department of Urology. Treatment plan: Therapy will be administered as an outpatient. Tamoxifen is administered at 20 mg/day as a single daily oral dose. Clinical assessment of patients by a history and physical examination will be performed every 4 weeks (one cycle). Objective radiological assessment of response will be made every 8 weeks or earlier if clinically indicated. A CT (computerized tomography) scan of the abdomen, pelvis and chest will be performed at baseline and every 2 cycles. A response is confirmed by repeating the scans in 4 weeks. Bone scan is performed if the patient complains of new bone pain or has raised alkaline phosphatase. A radiologist who is blinded to the treatment regimen reads the scans. The RECIST criteria are used to define response. Tamoxifen is continued until progressive disease or intolerable side effects occur.
NCT04362813
This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of canakinumab plus standard-of-care (SOC) compared with placebo plus SOC in patients with COVID-19-induced pneumonia and cytokine release syndrome (CRS).
NCT02740127
During penile prosthesis surgery, patients are given general anesthesia in combination with other pain drugs. A caudal nerve block (CNB) is a local anesthetic injected near the tailbone, in addition to general anesthesia, which can lower the need for pain drugs. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn how effective CNBs are in patients who are having penile prosthesis surgery compared to patients who only have general anesthesia by studying how long you stay in the hospital and the level of pain you have after surgery. This is an investigational study. The general anesthesia and CNB used in this study are FDA approved and commercially available. It is considered investigational to compare the effectiveness of CNBs in penile prosthesis surgery to general anesthesia alone. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 104 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
NCT02410343

NCT01945775
The purpose of this open-label, 2:1 randomized phase III trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of talazoparib (also known as BMN 673) versus protocol-specific physician's choice in patients who have locally advanced and/or metastatic breast cancer with germline BRCA mutations.
NCT02046096
This prospective, multicenter, double-arm clinical study further evaluated the safety and effectiveness of Cook's commercially available inferior vena cava (IVC) filters (specifically, the Günther Tulip® Vena Cava Filter and Cook Celect® Vena Cava Filters) in patients in need of temporary or permanent IVC filter placement for the prevention of pulmonary embolism (PE).
NCT00562497
This is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the efficacy and safety of Prochymal® versus placebo in combination with corticosteroids as initial therapy for acute GVHD. Corticosteroids have been the primary therapy for patients with previously untreated acute GVHD and the historical published data define an expected 35% complete response (CR) at Day +28 using this therapy.
NCT03953079
Phase 2b, multicenter, visual examiner-masked, randomized active-controlled, parallel-arm design study to evaluate the safety and duration of repeated IVT injections of 3 dose levels of GB-102 compared with aflibercept.
NCT01986933
To assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of CIM331, compared to placebo, in atopic dermatitis patients who are inadequately controlled by or intolerant to topical therapy
NCT01899144
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, single-dose, 5-treatment, 5-period, 5-way crossover study in pediatric patients with persistent asthma. The primary purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Albuterol Spiromax with that of ProAir HFA in pediatric asthma patients at 2 delivered dose levels equivalent to 90 mcg and 180 mcg of albuterol base.

NCT04069585
This is a randomized, controlled, double-blinded, within-subject (split-face), multicenter, prospective study to investigate whether RHA® Redensity with new anesthetic agent is non-inferior to RHA® Redensity with lidocaine in terms of injection site pain felt by the subject during injection. At screening, the Treating Investigator (TI) evaluated subjects' perioral rhytid severity (using the Perioral Rhytid Severity Rating Scale; PR-SRS) to confirm eligibility and to establish a pre-treatment score for assessing aesthetic improvement. At Visit 1, RHA® Redensity with new anesthetic agent was administered in a random sequence (first or second injection) and side of the mouth (left or right) and RHA® Redensity with lidocaine was administered to the other side. Study subjects and the TI injecting study devices were blinded. Immediately after injection of an upper perioral quadrant, subjects rated the injection site pain experienced during injection using a 100 mm Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Injection site pain in each side of the mouth was also assessed at 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes after injection of the upper quadrant. Safety evaluation consisted of AE assessments, a 30-day CTR (Common Treatment Response) diary and a follow-up call performed by the study site at 72 hours after injection. Subjects attended Visit 2 (30 days post-injection) where efficacy and safety assessments were conducted. Subjects who presented with an unresolved clinically significant device related AE at Visit 2 received a optional follow-up phone call no later than 30 days after Visit 2. If the clinically significant AE remained unresolved, the Investigator requested that the subject attended the optional in-clinic follow-up visit (i.e., Visit 3) within 5 working days. Follow-up of the clinically significant AE continued until the AE was resolved or the TI determines that additional follow-up was not necessary.
