Filter by:Hypothesis of the study: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with Bevacizumab impairs postoperative outcome after resection of colorectal liver metastases.
RATIONALE: Gathering information about how often osteonecrosis of the jaw occurs in patients receiving zoledronic acid for bone metastases may help doctors learn more about the disease and provide the best follow-up care. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying osteonecrosis of the jaw in patients with cancer who are receiving zoledronic acid for bone metastases.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether MBP8298 is effective and safe in the treatment secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. Dirucotide is generic name for MBP8298.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether TAC plus FOLFOX4 are able to improve resection rate and overall survival in patients receiving primary colorectal tumor resection than given FOLFOX4 only.
This randomized phase III trial studies two different schedules of zoledronic acid to compare how well they work in reducing bone-related complications in patients with breast cancer, prostate cancer, or multiple myeloma that has spread to other places in the body and have bone involvement. Bone-related complications are a major cause of morbidity in patients with metastatic prostate cancer, breast cancer, and multiple myeloma. Zoledronic acid may stop the growth of cancer cells in the bone and may help relieve some of the symptoms caused by bone metastases. It is not yet known whether giving zoledronic acid more or less frequently is more effective in treating patients with metastatic cancer that has spread to the bone.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of adecatumumab alone or following FOLFOX in patients with R0 resected liver metastases from CRC (colorectal carcinoma) and to compare the effect to FOLFOX alone.
This is a Phase I/II study to investigate the feasibility of creating a personalized therapeutic cancer vaccine within the body. A vaccine contains a source of tumor antigen and an adjuvant. In this study, tumor antigen is generated by freezing a tumor by a minimally invasive percutaneous (through the skin) cryoablation procedure. The study drug, AlloStim, is injected into the ablated tumor to promote development of an anti-tumor immune response.
The aim of the investigators study was to determine whether 8 Gy in a single fraction provides equivalent pain and narcotic relief compared to 30 Gy in 10 fractions for patients with painful bone metastases. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the frequency, duration of pain relief, narcotic relief, toxicity and the effect on quality of life measures for each of the two treatment arms.
This study will examine genes in three different tissues and look for similarities and differences between normal cells and cancer cells. The tissues to be studies come from blood, lymph node and cancer.
This clinical trial is studying how well giving fludarabine phosphate and melphalan together with total-body irradiation followed by donor stem cell transplant works in treating patients with hematologic cancer or bone marrow failure disorders. Giving low doses of chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells or abnormal cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer or abnormal cells (graft-versus-tumor effect)
