NCT01313650
This is a phase III multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GSK573719/GW642444 Inhalation Powder, GSK573719 Inhalation Powder, GW642444 Inhalation Powder and Placebo when administered once-daily via a Novel Dry Powder Inhaler over a 24-week treatment period in subjects with COPD. Subjects who meet eligibility criteria at Screening (Visit 1) will complete a 7 to14 day run-in period followed by a randomization visit (Visit 2) then a 24-week treatment period. There will be a total of 9 clinic study visits. A follow-up phone contact for adverse event assessment will be conducted approximately one week after the last study visit (Visit 9 or Early Withdrawal). The total duration of subject participation in the study will be approximately 27 weeks. A subset of subjects at selected sites will also perform 24-hour serial spirometry and Holter monitoring during the study and provide serial blood samples for pharmacokinetic analysis. Sparse pharmacokinetic sampling for population pharmacokinetic analyses will be obtained from non-subset subjects. The primary measure of efficacy is clinic visit trough (pre-bronchodilator and pre-dose) FEV1 on Treatment Day 169. Safety will be assessed by adverse events, 12-lead ECGs, vital signs, clinical laboratory tests, and 24 hour Holter monitoring (subset only).
NCT01188850
DNA vaccines, which are small pieces of DNA also known as plasmids, have several advantages over traditional vaccines such as live attenuated virus and recombinant protein-based vaccines. DNA vaccines appear to be well tolerated in humans. Therefore, the investigators have developed our DNA vaccine, VGX-3100, to include plasmids targeting E6 and E7 proteins of both HPV subtypes 16 and 18. The investigators have chosen to deliver our candidate vaccines via electroporation (EP) using the CELLECTRA constant current device to deliver a small electric charge following intramuscular (IM) injection, since animal studies have shown that this delivery method increases the immune response to our DNA vaccine leading to a decrease in the size of tumors caused by HPV 16 and 18. In study HPV-001, the vaccine was given to subjects with a history of CIN 2 and 3 who had been previously treated by surgery. This study is proposed to vaccinate the same subjects with a fourth dose of the VGX-3100 to determine the safety and immune response.

NCT00064337
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as melphalan work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with donor peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving melphalan together with autologous stem cell transplantation works in treating patients with multiple myeloma or primary systemic amyloidosis.
NCT02049489
This study will evaluate a type of immunotherapy in which the patient's immune system will be stimulated to kill tumor cells. ICT-121 dendritic cell (DC)vaccine is made from patient's white blood cells. This vaccine will be tested in patients with recurrent glioblastoma to assess safety, tolerability and clinical response. Patient's white blood cells (WBC) will be collected from blood and cultured to yield autologous DC. The DC will be mixed with purified peptides from the CD133 antigen. The DC vaccine will be given back to the patient over several months. The goal is to stimulate the patient's immune system to CD133 to kill the patient's glioblastoma tumor cells.
NCT00899678

NCT01958281
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sofosbuvir (SOF) plus ribavirin (RBV) for 24 weeks and ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) for 12 weeks, and to evaluate the steady state pharmacokinetics (PK) of SOF and its metabolites and LDV in participants with genotype (GT) 1, 3, or 4 hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who have chronic renal insufficiency (impaired kidney function).
NCT01026142
This randomized, two-arm study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a combination of trastuzumab and capecitabine with or without pertuzumab in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer. The study population consisted of female patients, whose disease had progressed during or following previous trastuzumab therapy for metastatic disease. All patients in Arm A and Arm B received trastuzumab (8 mg/kg iv as loading dose and then 6 mg/kg iv every 3 weeks thereafter) and capecitabine oral twice daily for 14 days every 3 weeks (1250 mg/m2 twice daily in Arm A and 1000 mg/m2 twice daily in Arm B). In addition, patients in Arm B received pertuzumab (840 mg iv as loading dose and then 420 mg iv thereafter) every 3 weeks. Study treatment continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
NCT00777114
This will be a multi-center, Phase I, dose-escalation study of bortezomib in combination with 131I-tositumomab in patients with relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Bortezomib will be administered to patients twice weekly, with the first dose being given two days prior to the treatment dose of 131I-tositumomab, and the second dose two days after RIT for a total of 5 doses. Patients will be enrolled and undergo standard staging studies, including history, physical examination, complete blood count, serum chemistries and LDH, TSH, HAMA, iliac crest bone marrow biopsy, and CT scans of the chest, abdomen and pelvis. All patients will provide written informed consent. Bortezomib will be evaluated at 4 dose levels (0.30 mg/m2, 0.60 mg/m2, 0.90 mg/m2, and 1.2 mg/m2) and 131I-tositumomab at 2 dose levels (50 cGy and 75 cGy TBD). Bortezomib will be administrated the day prior to 131I-tositumomab and twice weekly thereafter for 4 doses in order to provide proteasome inhibition throughout the period of 131I-tositumomab activity. The intention is to use 131I-tositumomab at full dose if possible. Therefore, the 50cGy dose will be used only with the lowest dose of bortezomib in case of unexpected toxicities with the combination. Dose levels will be as follow: 1. 0.30mg/m2 bortezomib and 50cGy 131I-tositumomab, 2. 0.30 mg/m2 bortezomib and 75 cGy 131I-tositumomab, 3. 0.60 mg/m2 bortezomib and 75 cGy 131I-tositumomab, 4. 0.90 mg/m2 bortezomib and 75 cGy 131I-tositumomab, and 5. 1.2 mg/m2 bortezomib and 75 cGy 131I-tositumomab.
NCT00706030
The purpose of this study is to identify the highest tolerable dose of neratinib (HKI-272) in combination with vinorelbine and to assess the safety of the combination of the two drugs as well as to obtain preliminary information on whether the combination of the two drugs has any effect on solid tumors. The study will be conducted in two parts. In the first part, testing will be done on up to 12 subjects to determine the highest tolerable dose of HKI-272 and vinorelbine in patients with advanced solid tumors. In the second part of the study, approximately 60 additional subjects with metastatic ErbB-2-positive breast cancer, with no prior exposure to lapatinib, are planned to be added to better define the tolerability and preliminary activity of HKI-272 in combination with vinorelbine. Up to 20 additional subjects with ErbB-2-positive breast cancer with prior lapatinib exposure are also planned to be enrolled in part 2 for exploratory analyses.
NCT01923311
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, tolerability and steady-state PK and confirm the dose of EVG/r in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment-experienced children 4 weeks to \<18 years of age. The study consists of 2 parts: Part A and Part B. Part A will enroll participants with suppressed viremia (HIV-1 RNA \< 50 copies/mL) or failing a current antiretroviral (ARV) regimen (HIV-1 RNA \> 1,000 copies/mL only for participants in Cohort 2, Part A) to evaluate the steady state PK and confirm the dose of EVG. Part B will enroll participants who are failing a current ARV regimen (HIV-1 RNA \> 1,000 copies/mL) to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of EVG. The study consists of 4 age cohorts with each cohort including 2 parts (Part A and Part B) with the exception of the adolescent age cohort (Cohort 1: 12 to \< 18 years old) containing Part B only.
NCT01690143
This study is for patients that have multiple myeloma that has come back or relapsed and their condition indicates a procedure called an Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (AHSCT). AHSCT is a procedure when stem cells from bone marrow or blood are removed before high-dose chemotherapy. Afterwards, the removed stem cells are put back into the patient's body to form a new population of blood cells. The high-dose chemotherapy administered before the AHSCT is called "Conditioning Therapy." The FDA has approved the use of the drug melphalan as a conditioning therapy. This research study will look at whether adding the study drug called carfilzomib will improve participant outcomes. Carfilzomib is considered investigational and is not approved by the FDA for the treatment of relapsed multiple myeloma. This study is divided into two phases. Phase I: Dose Escalation Phase: The main purpose of Part I of this study is to examine the safety of the study drug, carfilzomib, and determine the safest amount of the study drug that can be given to subjects who have multiple myeloma. Subjects on this study will receive different dose levels of the study drug. If you are one of the first three subjects to receive the study drug, it will be at what is called the 'starting dose' for the study which is the lowest dose that is expected to be tolerated based on prior research. After the first set of participants receive the study drug, the study doctor will review their health to see how they are tolerating the treatment. This will decide if the study drug dosage will be increased or decreased for the next set of subjects who join the study. It is anticipated that 12- 18 participants will enroll in the Phase I portion of this study. Phase II: Safety Confirmation Phase: Once the study doctor has discovered the highest possible dose of study drug that subjects can tolerate, up to 28 more subjects may be enrolled at that dose level. The main purpose of the Phase II portion of the study is look at how effective the combination of carfilzomib and melphalan when given before your stem cell transplantation is in treating multiple myeloma. This expansion phase will also include evaluation of two single agent carfilzomib maintenance therapy regimens for patients without disease progression at day 100.
