NCT01829711
Background: \- Moxetumomab pasudotox is an experimental non-chemotherapy cancer treatment drug. It targets CD22, a molecule on the surface of essentially all hairy cell leukemia cells. Moxetumomab pasudotox binds to CD22, goes into the cell, and releases a toxin which kills the cell. In a phase I trial it had activity in relapsed/refractory hairy cell leukemia with safety profile supporting further clinical study (http://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22355053). This is a phase III multicenter trial designed to confirm these results.

NCT01848249
Compared to chronic dialysis, kidney transplantation provides recipients with longer survival and better quality of life at a lower cost. In order to meet increasing demands for kidney allografts, kidneys from older and sicker donors are being procured. This has led to greater discard rates of donated kidneys as well as more complications for recipients, including shorter allograft survival. Available clinical models to predict kidney allograft quality have poor prognostic ability and do not asses the degree of kidney allograft injury. However, allograft injury near the time of procurement can lead to major consequences for the transplant recipient: greater risks of delayed graft function, poor allograft function and premature loss of the transplant. Our proposal is based on the hypotheses that novel biomarkers measured in donor urine and transport media at the time of procurement can assess acute and chronic kidney injury and that distinct biomarker patterns will predict allograft survival. In collaboration with five organ procurement organizations, we will collect urine samples from consecutive deceased donors and samples of transport solution for every pumped kidney. We will measure markers of injury, repair, inflammation and fibrosis. We will determine mortality and allograft survival in all patients by linkage to the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) database (Overall Cohort). Additionally, we will perform a detailed chart review of a subset of recipients (detailed cohort) and will also examine associations between biomarkers and longitudinal graft function over five years after transplant. Early, non-invasive and rapid assessment of donor kidney injury could drive better allocation decisions and potentially reduce the rates of post-transplant complications. Further, these new tools could provide a platform for clinical trials of therapies for allografts and kidney transplant recipients aimed at ameliorating allograft injury.
NCT03651596
The overall goal of this study is to develop and test effectively framed mobile health (mHealth) messages to promote medication adherence in teens with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
NCT01245673
One purpose of this study is to find out if a new combination of immune system treatments (MAGE-A3 vaccine plus activated T-cells) will allow the body to build up protection ("immunity") against the myeloma cells. A second purpose is to find out how well this combination of immune system treatments is able to control the myeloma.
NCT00690131
This 3-year study will involve the design and small-scale clinical trial of a behavioral treatment program for smoking cessation in people with severe mental illness (called Behavioral Treatment for Smoking Cessation in Serious and Persistent Mental Illness or BTSCS) in two psychosocial rehabilitation programs (PRPs) in Baltimore. Our aims are: (1) Develop intervention materials and examine feasibility, acceptability, and safety; (2) Measure the effects of the intervention at post-treatment and 3-month follow-up on rates of smoking cessation, number of quit attempts, rates of smoking reduction and intention/motivation to quit smoking.
NCT02470806
The aim of this study is to compare the clinical efficacy of two types of NPWT systems; the traditional negative pressure wound therapy (tNPWT) system and the single-use negative pressure wound therapy (PICO) system.
NCT02538094
This research is being done to determine whether transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can improve certain mental abilities in individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) or encephalitis. Participants will be asked to come in daily for two full weeks during which time participants will undergo cognitive testing and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) brain scans. In this research, a very weak electrical current is administered to the surface of the scalp while participants complete cognitive tasks. The investigators' aim is to find out whether tDCS will improve task performance in adults with multiple sclerosis or encephalitis.
NCT03367520
Given the high prevalence and great cost of smoking for individuals with serious mental illness, an effective smoking cessation intervention for this group of smokers that begins in the hospital and continues following discharge is needed. The investigators will develop and pilot test StayQuit, a multifaceted smoking cessation intervention for smokers with serious mental illness that begins in the hospital and continues for three months after discharge. StayQuit will provide a personalized and tailored experience for smokers with serious mental illness at different levels of motivation to remain abstinent. In the hospital, StayQuit will include a brief motivational intervention that will help smokers relate sustained smoking cessation to their values and preferences, shore up motivation to stay quit, and gain experience using nicotine replacement therapy. This will be followed by cessation-focused discharge planning to engage Veterans in continued smoking cessation services with StayQuit staff. After discharge, StayQuit will offer 13 weeks (spread out over 3 months) of smoking cessation telephone counseling. The investigators will examine the feasibility of StayQuit by collecting both quantitative data on attendance and qualitative data on participants' experiences.
NCT04118842
This is a phase I, open-label, 3 treatment period, fixed-sequence study in healthy non-Japanese male subjects, aged 18 to 65 years (inclusive), performed at a single study centre. Treatment Period 1 will establish the single dose pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of savolitinib. Dosing of daily rifampicin during Treatment Period 2 will result in maximal induction of the CYP450 enzymes including CYP3A4. Treatment Period 3 will then establish the single dose PK profile of savolitinib under maximum CYP450 induction conditions. Comparison of the PK profile of savolitinib between Treatment Period 1 and Treatment Period 3 will quantify the effect of CYP450 enzyme induction.
NCT00041288
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Peripheral stem cell transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Sometimes the transplanted cells are rejected by the body's normal tissues. Cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil, methotrexate, and tacrolimus may prevent this from happening. PURPOSE: Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of fludarabine plus total-body irradiation with that of combination chemotherapy followed by donor peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
