NCT03556384
Funding Source - FDA OOPD FDA-approved products for patients with unresectable or metastatic GIST include therapies such as imatinib and sunitinib. Although there are FDA-approved products for the treatment of advanced/metastatic GIST, these therapies are known to be ineffective in the SDH-mutant/deficient subtype and no known effective therapies exist. The purpose of this study is to investigate SDH-Mutant/Deficient Gastrointestinal Stromal cancer's response to the drug Temozolomide (TMZ) and aim to improve patient outcomes. Temozolomide is approved by the FDA for the treatment of newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and refractory anaplastic astrocytoma cancers. Temozolomide is considered experimental because it is not approved by the FDA for the treatment of SDH-Mutant/Deficient Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor.
NCT00306098
SPECIFIC AIMS: 1. To reverse hyperglycemia and insulin dependency in patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus by islet cell transplantation; 2. To eliminate the incidence of hypoglycemia coma and unawareness in patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus by islet cell transplantation; 3. To assess long-term safety and function of successful islet cell transplants in patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus; 4. To determine whether the natural history of the microvascular, macrovascular and neuropathic complications of Diabetes Mellitus are altered following successful transplantation of islet cells; and 5. To assess the effect of infliximab in preventing early islet destruction, and thereby eliminating the need for a second donor's islet cells. 6. To assess the effect of etanercept in preventing early islet destruction. 7. To assess the effect of exenatide to improve islet graft function and survival in subjects that have returned to using exogenous insulin. 8. To assess the ability of exenatide to improve islet survival at time of transplantation.
