Filter by:A pharmacodynamic study to evaluate the effect of AV-299 on exploratory pharmacodynamic markers in subjects with advanced solid tumors who have liver metastases. To evaluate safety and tolerability of AV-299 administered IV in subjects with advanced solid tumors who have liver metastases.
RATIONALE: Lapatinib ditosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving lapatinib ditosylate together with capecitabine may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving lapatinib ditosylate together with capecitabine works in treating patients with stage IV breast cancer and brain metastases.
Radiotherapy with or without adjuvant chemotherapy represents an important column of modern therapy in advanced squamous cell originated tumours of the head and neck. However to date no studies are available which study the effectiveness of radiotherapy in patients with resected small tumours (T1, T2) and concomitant ipsilateral metastasis of a single lymph node (pN1) for general treatment recommendation. The present study is designed as non-blinded, prospective, multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) for comparison of overall-survival as primary clinical target in patients receiving radiation therapy vs. patients without adjuvant radiation following curative intended surgery. Aim of the study is to enroll 560 adult males and females for 1:1 randomization to one of the two treatment arms (radiation/non-radiation. Secondary clinical endpoints are as follows: Incidence and time to tumor relapse (locoregional relapse, lymph node involvement and metastatic spread), Quality of life as reported by EORTC (QLQ-C30 with H&N 35 module) and time from operation to orofacial rehabilitation.
Approximately 4 to 5 million men in the U.S. are testosterone-deficient. Enclomiphene (trans-clomiphene) citrate (Androxal) was evaluated to determine if Androxal increased serum testosterone levels in men with secondary hypogonadism. Subjects were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 treatments groups. Appropriate amounts of medications were dispensed at each visit. Subjects took their medications orally or by rubbing it onto the skin (depending on the treatment assignment) once daily for up to 6 months. Treatment visits occurred at approximately 4-week intervals for Months 1, 2, and 3 and then at 6-week intervals for Months 4, 5, and 6.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of OXi4503 in subjects with relapsed or refractory carcinomas with hepatic tumor burden.
This phase 0 trial studies whole body fluorine F 18 sodium fluoride positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scan and whole body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in finding bone metastases in patients with prostate cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as whole body fluorine F 18 sodium fluoride PET/CT scan and whole body MRI, may help find and diagnose bone metastases.
In this phase III, multicenter study, 1200 patients with lung, breast, gastrointestinal (stomach, colon-rectum, pancreas), ovarian or head and neck cancer undergoing chemotherapy will be randomly assigned (at the beginning of cytotoxic therapy) in a 2:1 ratio and in double-blind conditions to a treatment with subcutaneous low molecular weight heparin (nadroparin calcium, one injection/day) or placebo for the overall duration of chemotherapy or up to a maximum of 4 months (+/- 10 days).
The purpose of this study is to describe the safety and tolerability of denosumab administration as measured by adverse events, immunogenicity, and safety laboratory parameters in subjects who previously received either zoledronic acid (Zometa®) or denosumab.
The investigators will test whether narrative life review and web-based social networking for middle aged adults with advanced cancer will improve: 1. existential well being (and reduce psychological distress) 2. generativity and relationship quality, thereby mediating the intervention effects The investigators will also conduct exploratory process analyses of each participant's social network.
The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of vorinostat given concurrently with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLCA) brain metastases in patient with 1-4 lesions.
