Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess pharmacokinetic concentrations of multiple probes alone followed by assessment of the same drug pharmacokinetic concentrations when the patient has steady-state exposure to rucaparib followed by cycle-by-cycle treatment with rucaparib continuing until disease progression or other reason for discontinuation.
During penile prosthesis surgery, patients are given general anesthesia in combination with other pain drugs. A caudal nerve block (CNB) is a local anesthetic injected near the tailbone, in addition to general anesthesia, which can lower the need for pain drugs. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn how effective CNBs are in patients who are having penile prosthesis surgery compared to patients who only have general anesthesia by studying how long you stay in the hospital and the level of pain you have after surgery. This is an investigational study. The general anesthesia and CNB used in this study are FDA approved and commercially available. It is considered investigational to compare the effectiveness of CNBs in penile prosthesis surgery to general anesthesia alone. The study doctor can explain how the study drugs are designed to work. Up to 104 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will take part at MD Anderson.
Bupivacaine is a drug that is traditionally given as an injection to numb surgical sites. Liposomes are molecules that are similar to fats. Sometimes drugs are combined with liposomes to make them able to stay in the body for longer periods of time. This has been done with bupivacaine to create liposomal bupivacaine. The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the effects of bupivacaine to those of liposomal bupivacaine when given to patients who are having gynecologic surgery. Researchers want to compare how long the drugs work to numb the wound and how long patients take to recover from surgery.
Among patients with a first episode of unprovoked venous thromboembolism (VTE), the contemporary one-year risk of detecting occult cancer is approximately 4% to 7%. Of these cases, 30% to 60% are missed by routine limited screening for cancer. RNA profiling of platelets is a promising, highly accurate biomarker for cancer detection, but its clinical utility in patients with unprovoked VTE is unknown. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of platelet RNA profiling in detecting occult cancer in patients with unprovoked venous thromboembolism. Secondary objectives include evaluation of other biomarkers for cancer, prediction of bleeding, and prediction of recurrent VTE.
The primary objective of this study is to provide idelalisib to participants receiving GS-9820 in Gilead-sponsored Study GS-US-315-0102 at the time of study closure.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well liver surgery and chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy alone work in treating patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver (liver metastases) that can be removed by surgery and that has spread to the lungs (lung metastases) that cannot be removed by surgery. Liver surgery removes a portion of the liver affected by the tumor. Chemotherapy drugs 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. Liver surgery and chemotherapy may work better than chemotherapy alone in treating patients with colorectal cancer which has spread to the liver and lungs.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and the maximum tolerated dose of of pbi-shRNA™ EWS/FLI1 Type 1 lipoplex in patients with advanced Ewing's sarcoma.
The aim of this phase I-II study is to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of PRRT with 177Lu-DOTATATE (Lu-PRRT) associated to metronomic chemotherapy with Capecitabine in patients affected by aggressive FDG-positive gastro-entero-pancreatic NET. Moreover to analyze the effects of the capecitabine metronomic schedule on the level of circulating angiogenetic factors.
This is a Phase I, non-randomized, open-label, multiple dose study of pexidartinib in Asian subjects with advanced solid tumors. The study will be conducted in a dose escalation to assess the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary antitumor activity of pexidartinib.
By obtaining clinical specimens from participants with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), colorectal cancer (CRC), high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), and other select tumor types to establish and profile as freshly implanted tumors in mice, the aim of this study is to identify agents with predicted activity in the host patient while also potentially providing them with personalized cancer treatment options
