Filter by:To investigate whether nasal high frequency oscillation ventilation (nHFOV) immediately after extubation reduces the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (paCO2) at 72 hours after extubation in comparison with nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) in very low birth weight infants (VLBWs).
This is a phase II, open-label, nonrandomized, prospective study to evaluate the activity, safety, and feasibility of administration of moxetumomab pasudotox in the pre-allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) setting to patients with B-lineage Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) who are in a morphologic complete remission and have pre-transplant minimal residual disease (MRD) > 0.01% (detected by flow cytometry). The primary objective of this study is to determine if treatment with moxetumomab pasudotox in the MRD positive setting is able to lead to MRD negativity (< 0.01% by flow cytometry) or at least a 1-log10 reduction in MRD prior to allogeneic HCT.
This pilot clinical trial studies how well vismodegib works in treating patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease that did not respond to previous steroid treatment. Chronic graft-versus-host disease can cause a build-up of scar tissue under the skin and lead to symptoms such as sclerodermatous skin changes, dry mouth, dry eye, narrowing of the esophagus, or vaginal graft-versus-host disease. Vismodegib may work against the build-up of scar tissue and be a better treatment for chronic graft-versus-host disease caused by a hematopoietic stem cell transplant.
This pilot phase II trial studies how well vincristine sulfate liposome works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that has returned after a period of improvement or has not responded to previous treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vincristine sulfate liposome, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Liposomal encapsulation prolongs bioavailability (proportion of drug that enters the circulation when introduced into the body) of vincristine sulfate, and may increase its delivery to cancer cells with fewer side effects.
This clinical trial studies giving radiation therapy to the liver in patients with uveal (eye) melanoma who have a specific chromosome loss (monosomy 3) or are DecisionDx Class 2 and therefore more likely to have their disease spread from the eye to the liver. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Early radiation to the liver may reduce the development of tumors in the liver and the overall risk of disease recurrence.
This multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the safety of a single infusion of tocilizumab versus placebo, administered in addition to standard premedications (antipyretic, antihistamine, and corticosteroid) prior to the first infusion of obinutuzumab administered in combination with oral chlorambucil to participants with previously untreated B-CLL who have comorbidities. All eligible participants will be treated with a total of 6 cycles of obinutuzumab + chlorambucil (cycle length = 28 days).
The purpose of the study is to investigate the extent of ischemia and left ventricular function in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), as well as patency of coronary arteries and grafts in coronary computed tomography angiography at 12 months follow up in patients with advanced coronary artery disease treated with percutaneous coronary intervention with the implantation of bioresorbable scaffolds or coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Additionally, the clinical results of the two methods of revascularization will be carried out annually up to 5 years.
This multicenter phase II trial will evaluate palbociclib (PD-0332991) in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC) with cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A) (also referred to as p16) loss and positive Retinoblastoma (Rb) expression after failure of first-line chemotherapy.
This pilot clinical trial studies how well ganetespib works before surgery in treating patients with stage I-IVA squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck that can be removed by surgery. Ganetespib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Studying samples of blood and tissue in the laboratory from patients receiving ganetespib may help doctors learn more about the effects of ganetespib on cells. It may also help doctors understand how well patients respond to treatment.
The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety of using the combination of decitabine and a cancer vaccine plus Hiltonol. The vaccine will be made from the subject's blood cells and is designed to interact in the subject's body with cells that are programmed to fight specific tumor proteins NY-ESO-1, Melanoma Antigen Gene-A1 (MAGE-A1) and Melanoma Antigen Gene-A3 (MAGE-A3). The decitabine will be given to increase the amount and activity of these cancer proteins on the surface of tumor cells to increase the possibility that the vaccine will stimulate cells to act against the tumor cells. Subjects will be assessed to determine how these tumors respond to the treatment.
