NCT00243503
The current study is to evaluate: Overall response rate for the combination of trastuzumab and SU011248 in metastatic or locally recurrent breast cancer; evaluate safety and tolerability of the combination; measure duration of tumor control and survival; assess patient reported outcomes; assess PK in combination with trastuzumab and compare efficacy and safety.
NCT00616980
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intramuscular injections of adult stem cells in patients with Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI).
NCT00040677
ICA-17043 is being developed for the chronic treatment of patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) in both adults and children. ICA-17043 is a potent and specific inhibitor of a channel in human red blood cells (RBCs) that blocks RBC dehydration. ICA-17043 is expected to inhibit RBC dehydration and thus should prevent or delay the sickling process. By reducing sickled cells, an improvement in anemia, a reduction in painful crises, and ultimately, less end-organ disease is anticipated.
NCT00804986
A multicenter, multinational, randomized,double-blind, placebo-controlled study in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Patients with inadequate glycemic control using diet and exercise alone, or in combination with metformin, will be enrolled. The primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that LY2428757 given to patients with T2DM inadequately controlled with diet and exercise alone, or metformin monotherapy, produces a significant decrease in the mean hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline to endpoint at 12 weeks as compared to placebo. Trial consists of 12 weeks of double-blind treatment and 4-week safety follow-up.
NCT00757237
The purpose of this study was to assess the comparative safety and effectiveness of aztreonam for inhalation solution versus tobramycin inhalation solution in adult and pediatric patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and pulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) infection.
NCT00044356
The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine if Allovectin-7®, an experimental gene-based immunotherapy, can shrink melanoma tumors. The trial will also examine if this treatment can improve the time to disease progression.
NCT00035841
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of TLK286 in treatment of metastatic breast cancer.
NCT00047801
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of TLK286 given intravenously once every three weeks in combination with docetaxel (Taxotere) in the treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer that is resistant to platinum-based chemotherapy.
NCT00003646
RATIONALE: Injecting allovectin-7 into a person's melanoma cells may make the body build an immune response that will kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of gene therapy in treating patients who have stage III or stage IV melanoma that has not responded to previous treatment.
NCT00768339
AEG35156 has shown early evidence of activity in patients with advanced indolent B-cell lymphomas in Phase 1 trials and merits further evaluation in this disease. This trial is designed to determine the recommended dose of AEG35156 in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and indolent B-cell lymphomas.
NCT00089427
This Phase 1 study in patients with newly diagnosed malignant glioma is designed to determine the highest dose of IL13-PE38QQR that can be safely administered by Convection Enhanced Delivery (CED) to the area around the tumor site after the tumor is surgically removed (resection). In addition, the patient will receive radiation therapy and may or may not be treated with oral temozolomide.
NCT00143715
Excessive prolongation of the international normalized ratio (INR) occurs frequently in patients taking warfarin; in fact, about one in six INR values is above the desired range. Excessive prolongation of the INR is clinically important because the risk of bleeding approximately doubles for each one point increase in the INR beyond the usual therapeutic range. Thus, treatment strategies which rapidly and reliably lower an excessively prolonged INR into the desired range have the potential to reduce bleeding. When taken by patients with INR values between 4.5 and 10, a small dose of oral vitamin K (1 mg to 2.5mg) reduces the INR into the desired INR range in about 75% of cases within 24 hours of its administration. If warfarin is simply withheld, and no vitamin K is given, about 25% of patients will have an INR in the desired range at 24 hours. However, vitamin K is rarely given to such patients. In a recent survey carried out by our group, less than 20% of such patients would have been given low dose oral vitamin K by a group of physicians who regularly supervise warfarin therapy. The most common treatment for excessive prolongation of the INR is to simply withhold warfarin and allow the INR to fall into the therapeutic range. Although this strategy is effective its safety has never been adequately examined. In fact, recent evidence suggests that patients with INR values of more than 6.0 who are treated with simple warfarin withdrawal have a risk of major bleeding of 4% in the two weeks after they develop their prolonged INR. When asked why they did not give oral vitamin K to a non-bleeding patient who has an excessively prolonged INR, physicians generally give one of three reasons: (1)They are not convinced that oral vitamin K reduces bleeding. (2) They are concerned that oral vitamin K may cause thrombosis. (3) In contrast with simply withholding warfarin, giving oral vitamin K requires a patient to visit the physician, and the physician must have a supply of vitamin K. The investigators hypothesize that the routine practice of not administering oral vitamin K to patients with excessively prolonged INR values is causing patients to have major, life-threatening and fatal bleeds. To convince physicians that oral vitamin K should be administered to all non-bleeding patients with INR values of more than 4.5, the investigators propose a study which the investigators anticipate will demonstrate that oral vitamin K reduces bleeding, does not cause thrombosis, and can be administered at home without direct physician supervision. To accomplish these goals, the investigators propose a multinational, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The investigators will randomize patients with INR values between 4.5 and 10.0 to receive 1.25 mg of oral vitamin K or placebo and follow them for bleeding and thrombosis. Patients with INR values of more than 10.0 will receive a single 1.25 mg dose of oral vitamin K. Successful completion of this study will establish a treatment standard supported by clinical data which will, in turn, change the way that patients taking warfarin who present with an excessively prolonged INR are treated.
NCT00369447
This is a Phase I-II study designed to investigate nimotuzumab (TheraCIM h-R3) in combination with external radiation in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. The purpose of the Phase I portion of the study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the administration of nimotuzumab with palliative radiation in patients who are unsuitable for radical therapy and to select the optimal dose for the Phase II component of the study. The primary objective for the Phase II portion of the study is to examine the efficacy of this combination treatment. The Phase I component of this study has been completed. The Phase II is now closed to recruitment.
