View clinical trials related to Cancer.
Filter by:1.) To integrate discharge planning into an intervention provided by advanced practice nurses (APRNs)for patients with advanced cancer, 2.) To evaluate the effects of the intervention, and 3.) To explore the reach, adoption, and implementation of the intervention to facilitate the transition of patients from surgery/biopsy/chemotherapy to medical oncology in a comprehensive cancer center.
Phase I dose finding study in solid tumors.
The primary objective of this project is to examine the impact of providing cancer patients with audiovisual information about clinical trials on attitudes towards clinical trial participation. It is hypothesized that patients provided these materials will have more favorable attitudes toward clinical trial participation compared to patients not provided these materials. Participants will be randomized to either: (1) an intervention condition in which they will be asked to view a short video and read an accompanying brochure about clinical trials developed by the investigative team; or (2) a control condition in which they will be asked to read the National Cancer Institute's brochure entitled "Taking Part in Cancer Treatment Research Studies." Self-report data will be collected at two timepoints: 1) in person following study enrollment, but before receipt of material related to intervention assignment (baseline/Time 1), and 2) by telephone interview between 7 and 28 days following study enrollment (follow-up/Time 2). In addition, data will also be collected from medical records six weeks after study enrollment.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the tolerability and safety of E7080 up to 24 mg when administered orally on a once daily continuous dose schedule in cycles (4 weeks as 1 cycle) in subjects with solid tumors
The purpose of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetic and safety characteristics of European Taxotere® and American Taxotere® with Hospira Docetaxel injection in patients with cancer.
The purpose of this trial is the characterization of the long term safety profile and long-term dose requirements of tapentadol PR (prolonged release) in patients with malignant tumor-related pain. In the United States the prolonged-release formulation is also referred to as the extended-release formulation.
The study is a Phase 1, open-label study designed to characterize the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of GSK2118436 following administration of a single oral 14C labeled dose of GSK2118436 as a suspension in subjects with BRAF mutation positive tumors.
This study will be a Phase I/II, open-label, non-randomized, dose-finding trial conducted at multiple clinical centers. The study is designed to determine the safety, tolerability and PK of TKM-080301 in adult patients with solid tumors or lymphomas that are refractory to standard therapy or for whom there is no standard therapy. After the determination of the maximum tolerated dose this dose will be utilized in an expansion cohort or subjects with refractory neuroendocrine tumors (NET) or adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) tumors.
The purpose of this study is to compare 18F-Fluoride PET bone scans to traditional 99mTc-MDP bone scan to determine if one is better for diagnosing bone metastases.
UC San Diego researchers conducted a study to develop and evaluate an internet and text message based weight loss study for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) survivors. We hypothesized that those study participants randomized to the intervention will demonstrate greater reduction in BMI-z score as compared to the control group.
