NCT ID: NCT00820157 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Cytoreductive Surgery and Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) Versus TACE for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

TACE
Start date: November 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to compare the surgical outcomes of cytoreductive surgery followed by Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) with TACE alone in patients with MNHCC so as to establish a treatment standard for MNHCC.

NCT ID: NCT00816764 Completed - Ovarian Cancer Clinical Trials

A Phase 1 Study of the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of AGS-8M4 in Subjects With Advanced Ovarian Cancer

Start date: October 2008
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This is the first in human study of AGS-8M4 given every 2 weeks to subjects with advanced ovarian cancer. AGS-8M4 will be administered as an IV infusion until the disease worsens.

NCT ID: NCT00814242 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Hepatectomy Versus Radiofrequency Ablation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Adjacent to Major Blood Vessels

Start date: December 2008
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study will compare and analyze the difference between hepatectomy at deep and complex sites(adjacent to major blood vessels) of patients with HCC and PRFA prognosis, recovery after treatment as well as incidence of complications so as to establish treatment standards of HCC at these sites.

NCT ID: NCT00814086 Completed - Clinical trials for Primary Peritoneal Carcinoma

Cisplatin and Paclitaxel in Treating Patients With Stage IIB, Stage IIC, Stage III, or Stage IV Ovarian Epithelial Cancer, Fallopian Tube Cancer, or Primary Peritoneal Cavity Cancer

Start date: February 2009
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of cisplatin given together with paclitaxel in treating patients with stage IIB, stage IIC, stage III, or stage IV ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cavity cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) and giving them in different ways may kill more tumor cells.

NCT ID: NCT00812175 Completed - Clinical trials for Carcinoma, Hepatocellular

Global Investigation of Therapeutic Decisions in Hepatocellular Carcinoma and of Its Treatment With Sorafenib

GIDEON
Start date: January 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

In this international non-interventional study safety and clinical data concerning the treatment of patients suffering from Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) will be collected.

NCT ID: NCT00807300 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Computed Tomography (CT) - Guided Brachytherapy Versus Transarterial Chemoembolization in Patients With Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma

CEAL
Start date: October 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Percutaneous, image-guided tumor ablation has evolved as a genuine alternative for the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. Published data exploring stereotactic or proton beam percutaneous irradiation have revealed,that hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is radiosensitive to certain protocols. In Phase I and II studies, the investigators investigated the potential role of local irradiation in primary and secondary liver tumors employing a Iridium192 source. The promising results of previous studies indicate that CT-guided brachytherapy might play a role in the treatment of unresectable HCC. Therefore, the investigators started a randomized, controlled, clinical Phase-II study to evaluate the efficacy and survival-benefits of brachytherapy versus transarterial chemoembolization in patients with unresectable HCC.

NCT ID: NCT00805129 Completed - Bladder Cancer Clinical Trials

Everolimus (RAD001) in Metastatic Transitional Cell Carcinoma of the Urothelium

Start date: December 5, 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to learn what effects, good and/or bad, Everolimus has on advanced urothelial cancer. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if the study drug Everolimus can shrink or slow the growth of urothelial cancer. The safety of this drug will also be studied. The patients physical state, changes in the size of the tumor, and laboratory findings taken while on-study will help us decide if Everolimus is safe and effective.

NCT ID: NCT00804128 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Contrast-Enhanced MRI for the Characterization of Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS)

Start date: October 1, 2008
Phase:
Study type: Observational

*REFERRALS TO THIS TRIAL MUST BE THROUGH BREAST CARE CLINICIANS ONLY* RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as contrast-enhanced MRI, may help find and diagnose ductal carcinoma in situ. PURPOSE: This study is to develop and refine magnetic resonance (MR) imaging methods for pre-operative staging of ductal carcinoma in situ, a pre-invasive form of breast cancer, and atypical ductal hyperplasia, a risk factor for developing cancer.

NCT ID: NCT00803062 Completed - Clinical trials for Cervical Adenocarcinoma

Paclitaxel and Cisplatin or Topotecan With or Without Bevacizumab in Treating Patients With Stage IVB, Recurrent, or Persistent Cervical Cancer

Start date: April 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This randomized phase III trial studies the side effects of paclitaxel when given together with cisplatin or topotecan with or without bevacizumab and to compare how well they work in treating patients with stage IVB, cervical cancer that has come back or is persistent. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, cisplatin, and topotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether paclitaxel is more effective when given together with cisplatin or topotecan with or without bevacizumab in treating patients with cervical cancer.

NCT ID: NCT00802555 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Safety Study of ARQ 197 in Cirrhotic Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)

Start date: January 2009
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Multi-center, single-arm Phase 1b study designed to evaluate safety and tolerability of ARQ 197 in cirrhotic patients with HCC.
