Filter by:This study will examine the efficacy and safety of lapatinib in patients with ErbB2 positive ovarian, gastric/esophageal adenocarcinoma, uterine serous papillary, or bladder cancers.
Therapy-associated diarrhea during radiation therapy of small pelvis (including enteritis as a result of radiation therapy and enteritis as a result of radiation- and chemotherapy) is a common problem in multimodal cancer therapy. We investigate the therapeutic effect of either loperamide or tinctura opii in therapy- associated diarrhea in patients who receive radiation therapy of the small pelvis with or without chemotherapy.
The development of clots is a potentially deadly complication in many cancer patients. The current optimal treatment is unknown. Evidence supporting the effectiveness of the use of Inferior Vena Caval Filters is lacking. This study will compare the two standard of care treatment options: anticoagulation with or without a inferior vena cava filter. The anticoagulation medication chosen will be Arixtra and it will be given once a day as an injection. Patients will be called at various intervals to monitor their signs and symptoms of new thromboembolisms.
This is an open label, dose escalation study of ARQ 171 administered via intravenous infusion (IVI) into a peripheral vein weekly. Patients with advanced solid tumors, who are refractory to available therapy or for whom no standard systemic therapy exists, will be enrolled.
Phase 1 Open-label treatment with MPC-2130 for subjects with refractory cancer.
The purpose of this study is to compare hemoglobin response rates between two PROCRIT (epoetin alfa) doses and ARANESP (darbepoetin alfa) in anemic cancer patients receiving chemotherapy
The purpose of this study is to assess the analgesic efficacy of flexibly-dosed pregabalin in the adjunctive treatment of subjects with cancer-induced bone pain.
This is a post-approval, multi-center, single-arm study (n=950) designed to address the relationship of the LUMA device performance to patient age, patient human papillomavirus (HPV) status and colposcopist experience.
The purpose of this Phase II study is to determine the feasibility of the dose titration and assessment protocol in the outpatient population before conducting an appropriately powered phase III study. Thus the primary purpose of this study is to determine the proportion of patients who are successfully titrated to an optimal dose of sublingual (Under the tongue) methadone and then studied at that optimal dose with successive episodes of breakthrough pain.
The purpose of this Phase II study is to determine the feasibility of the dose titration and assessment protocol in the impatient population, in the clinical setting of preventing or managing breakthrough pain, before conducting an appropriately powered phase III study. Thus the primary purpose of this study is to determine the proportion of patients who are successfully titrated to an effective dose of sublingual methadone.
