The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of reactive neuromuscular training on muscular endurance test.
The purpose of this study is to assess the time for patients to relapse when switched from an oral antipsychotic to one of two doses of long-acting risperidone injection (shots). Risperidone has been used successfully to treat schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder.
The primary aim is to determine the rate of major bleeding and blood clots when using enoxaparin as a bridge to oral blood thinning medication in patients who have undergone mechanical valve replacement.
This is an open-label, randomized, multiple-dose, multicenter Pharmacokinetics drug-drug interaction study in patients with advanced solid tumors, including non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, who are in need of anti-tumor therapy. In addition, the impact of omeprazole on the pharmacodynamics of VELCADE will also be evaluated.
The goal of this study is to develop a safe, well tolerated, and highly efficacious azithromycin combination treatment for uncomplicated falciparum malaria. Azithromycin is a drug that has shown potential for malaria treatment. It will be combined with other malaria drugs currently approved for treatment in Thailand. About 120 people, ages 20-65, will be enrolled in Thailand. Participants will have severe cases of malaria and they will be hospitalized 28 days for treatment.
The purpose of this study is to compare PEG-interferon alfa-2b and two different doses of rivavirin for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C in previously untreated adult subjects
Patients with aggressive Non−Hodgkin−lymphoma treated at first diagnosis with chemotherapy alone or combined chemo-radiotherapy can achieve high response rates. However, patients with relapsed lymphoma still have a poor prognosis. High dose chemotherapy (HDCT) followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is the treatment of choice for these patients. An ASCT allows patients to receive much higher doses of chemotherapy than usual, to improve the chances of curing the disease. The high−dose of chemotherapy destroys the cells in the patients bone marrow and then the patients own cells from either the bone marrow or peripheral blood are used to rescue the patient from intensive treatment. High−dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell (either bone marrow or peripheral blood) transplantation is used in the treatment of Intermediate/High grade NHL with poor risk disease and in second remission at the Royal Marsden Hospital. The purpose of the present analysis is to determine independent prognostic factors correlated with the long−term outcome of patients with NHL who received an ASCT between January 1991 and June 2005. Accrual of eligible patients currently under follow−up will be performed in clinic at the time of next appointment. All patients accrued will give informed consent to participate in the study for retrospective case note review, after discussion with a study investigator and after receiving a study information sheet. The results of the analysis will be published in a peer−reviewed medical journal. This will include patients treated at the royal Marsden Hospital only.
There has been considerable international /national interest in the GEM−P regimen for treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory lymphoma. Currently, there is no accepted standard therapy for these patients. Since the publication of our experience with this regimen (Study with CCR ethics number 1857 closed to recruitment in July 2003:Ng M, Waters J, Cunningham D et al, Br J Cancer 2005;92:1352−7), we have treated relapsed/refractory lymphoma patients with this regimen and would like to undertake a retrospective review of a sub−group of these patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Patients treated with GEM−P with or without Rituximab prior to March 2005 for refractory/relapsed DLBCL will be included in the analysis. Accrual of eligible patients currently under follow−up will be performed in clinic at the time of next appointment. All patients accrued will give informed consent for retrospective case note review, after discussion with a study investigator and after receiving a study information sheet. All eligible patients identified from the pharmacy database, and will be consented at the time of the next clinic appointment, if they are agreeable for the retrospective case note review.
The majority of patients with Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL)are cured with radiation therapy and/or combination chemotherapy. However, patients who relapse after attaining a complete remission with chemotherapy and those with primary refractory disease have a poor outcome with conventional chemotherapy regimens. Treatment results with standard−dose second−line regimens produce low complete remission rates and minimal survival benefit. Single institution studies have shown better outcome after autologous stem cell transplant in this group of patients when compared to historical controls receiving conventional treatment. In this retrospective review, we aim to analyze outcome and determine independent prognostic factors which would correlate with the long−term outcome of patients with HL who received an autologous stem cell transplant in the past at the Royal Marsden Hospital Eligible patients (those on current−follow−up) identified from the transplant database will be eligible for the study. Accrual of eligible patients currently under follow−up will be performed in clinic at the time of next appointment. All patients accrued will give informed consent to participate in the study for retrospective case note review, after discussion with a study investigator and after receiving a study information sheet. The results of the analysis will be published in a peer−reviewed medical journal.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of OROS*methylphenidate/CONCERTA* vs. immediate release methylphenidate as a treatment for ADHD specifically for those children who have behavioural difficulties in the afternoon/after-school and evening periods.
