There are about 173942 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in United States. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The purpose of this study is to test how well the drug works, safety and tolerability of an investigational drug called Ruxolitinib in gliomas and glioblastomas, when combined with standard treatment for brain cancer, temozolomide and radiation. Ruxolitinib is an experimental drug that works by targeting proteins in cells and stops them from growing. Ruxolitinib is experimental because it is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of gliomas or glioblastomas Temozolomide works by damaging the DNA of tumor cells so that they cannot divide properly. Some tumor cells can repair that damage and therefore be resistant to temozolomide.
This phase II trial studies how well atezolizumab when given with glycosylated recombinant human interleukin-7 (CYT107) works in treating patients with urothelial carcinoma that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), cannot be removed by surgery (inoperable), or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. CYT107 is a biological product naturally made by the body that may stimulate the immune system to destroy tumor cells. Giving atezolizumab and CYT107 may work better in treating patients with locally advanced, inoperable, or metastatic urothelial carcinoma compared to atezolizumab alone.
This phase II trial studies how well venetoclax and ibrutinib work in treating participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and have developed genetic mutations after previously being treated with ibrutinib. Venetoclax and ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
The purpose of this study is to find the appropriate dose of the study drug nintedanib when combined with azacitidine and the associated side effects of the combination in older adults with AML characterized by HOX gene overexpression who are not interested in or not considered fit for standard intensive chemotherapy. The use of the study drug nintedanib in this study is investigational. Investigational means that this medication has not yet been approved by the FDA to treat this type of cancer. Azacitidine received FDA Approval in 2004 for myelodysplastic syndrome (a blood cancer related to AML) and has a National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guideline recommendation for treatment of older adults who are not candidates for or decline intensive remission induction therapy. We expect participation to continue in this study based on each participant's response to the drug, and ability to tolerate treatment. Participants may continue to receive study treatments for 6 cycles (one cycle is 28 days long). If the 6 cycles of treatment is completed, participants may be moved on to a maintenance phase of treatment. Treatment will continue until the participant's leukemia gets worse, or they experience serious side effects, have a break in treatment for more than 56 days or the study doctor feels it is best for study treatments to stop.
This is an open-label extension study for patients previously enrolled in the AB2 Bio Ltd. ongoing Phase III clinical trial NLRC4/XIAP.2016.001 (IND N° 127953). This OLE study will evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of Tadekinig alfa in patients suffering from pediatric monogenic autoinflammatory diseases harboring deleterious mutations of NLRC4 and XIAP.
This study investigates molecular and physical biomarkers of headaches in order to better understand mechanisms of these diseases. There are 3 main parts: 1. Use of capsaicin (active ingredient in hot chili peppers) to trigger release of calcitonin gene related peptide - the hypothesis is that this will be different in headache subjects compared to controls (and if so might be used to predict how these patients will respond to certain medications that modulate calcitonin gene-related peptide). Subjects will be given capsaicin as a cream applied to the forehead or the inner nostril, or a hot sauce that is ingested. 2. Use of capsaicin to trigger eye watering - the hypothesis is that oxygen gas will slow down the amount of eye watering. Cluster headache patients respond very powerfully to oxygen gas but to very little else. The mechanism for oxygen is unknown but in rodents there is data that it works on the parasympathetic / lacrimal gland system. This study translates rodent data into humans in a non-invasive way to confirm the mechanism of this very effective treatment. 3. Use of ice water to trigger headaches - brain freeze causes a very short-lived but intense headache that may cause similar biomarker release as other headache disorders. This may be a useful human model for other headache disorders.
The proposed studies are aimed to measure Tau and P-Tau levels in pre- and postoperative blood, urine, feces and saliva, as well as to assess pre- and postoperative neurocognitive function in children (3 to 5 years old) who will have surgery under general anesthesia (single versus multiple exposures). The studies will establish a system to study biomarkers of the anesthesia/surgery-associated neurocognitive impairment in children and generate hypothesis that Tau or P-Tau serves as the biomarker of such neurocognitive impairment in children.
Patients will be assigned to receive either Depo Medrol or Acthar treatment. A synovial biopsy, blood draws, synovial fluid aspiration, and physician assessments will be performed before and after initiating treatment.
This is a one year, prospective, randomized, open-label trial examining once versus twice daily tacrolimus dosing regimen using two preparations, extended-release Tacrolimus (Envarsus XR) versus twice daily Tacrolimus (Prograf). It will examine kidney function between the two groups using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and also examine one-year kidney outcomes, including graft loss and patient death. Patients will be followed for up to 1 year during the open-label study period.
The purpose of this study is to provide participants diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and completed one of the active study protocols at the Rodriguez Lab, with open/aftercare treatment.
