Filter by:The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and toxicity including quality of life of two types of low-dose interferon alpha compounds (PegIntron and Pegasys) with hydroxyurea (Hydrea), and to investigate the occurence of neutralizing antibodies against recombinant interferon.
In this study, BYL719 will be administered to adult patients with advanced solid tumors whose disease has progressed despite standard therapy or for whom no standard therapy exists. The trial will investigate the safety and tolerability and determine the MTD of BYL719 in Japanese patients.
The overall objective is to estimate the actual or potential benefit of deep inspiration breath holding (DIBH) treatment in the context of proton radiotherapy as compared to 3 dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT) and intensity-modulated x-ray therapy (IMXT), as it relates to variability in tumor localization, treatment margins, target volume definition, doses to organs at risk and variations with treatment planning.
The purpose of this study is to see whether giving azacitidine before each cycle of chemotherapy prior to surgery is safe.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the direct mailing of fecal occult blood testing (FOBT) kits to patients who are due for colorectal cancer screening is an effective way to improve colorectal cancer screening rates within a low income and racially/ethnically diverse population.
The overall objective of this pilot study is to determine whether multispectral imaging increases the diagnostic accuracy of the current standard of high-definition white-light endoscopy for the detection of Barrett's-associated neoplasia (high grade dysplasia or cancer). The investigators goal is to develop a multispectral endoscopic platform that can be used to survey a large surface area and, potentially, serve as a 'red flag' for microendoscopic imaging of small areas. The goal of this pilot study is to preliminarily determine the accuracy of these modalities during the endoscopic surveillance of Barrett's esophagus.
Monoclonal antibodies can transport and deliver radioactive elements capable of releasing sufficient amounts of energy to destroy tumor cells. In this clinical trial, we will study alpha particle radio immunotherapy using lead-212 (²¹²Pb), an isotope with a short path length targeted to malignant cells by the trastuzumab antibody, as a potential treatment for metastatic diseases. This Phase I trial is designed to determine the toxicity profile of ²¹²Pb-TCMC-Trastuzumab, its dose-limiting toxicities, and its anti-tumor effects in patients with HER-2 positive intraperitoneal cancers.
This multicenter, open-label, multiple ascending dose study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and efficacy of RO5458640 in patients with advanced solid tumors. Cohorts of patients will receive ascending doses of RO5458640 intravenously, either weekly or every 2 weeks or every 3 weeks, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.
The primary objectives are: Dose escalation: 1. To determine the MTD and DLT(s) of TH-302 when used in combination with sunitinib. Dose expansion: 1. To make a preliminary assessment of the efficacy of TH-302 in combination with sunitinib as determined by the response rate and the progression-free survival in subjects with advanced RCC treated at the RP2D 2. To assess the safety of TH-302 in combination with sunitinib and determine a recommended Phase 2 dose of the combination. The secondary objectives are: Dose expansion: 1. To make a preliminary assessment of the efficacy of TH-302 in combination with sunitinib as determined by stable disease or better rate, duration of response and overall survival in subjects with advanced RCC treated at the RP2D. The exploratory objective is: 1. To explore the association of serum hypoxia biomarkers with efficacy endpoints.
This phase I study in adult patients with advanced solid tumours is designed to evaluate toxicity, drug exposure (pharmacokinetics) and drug action (pharmacodynamics) of a new molecule, PDM08, administered twice a week cycles of 4 weeks. This drug has shown antitumoral activity in several murine cancer models.
