Filter by:Of all emergency room patients, persons presenting with encephalitis/meningitis syndrome of a potentially infectious nature are among those of greatest concern. Routine clinical and laboratory evaluation of such patients involves screening for known infectious disease agents, selection of which is nonstandardized. Progress in diagnostic technologies, especially molecular techniques based on genetic characteristics of potential pathogens, has greatly expanded the investigators capacity to evaluate specimens from patients for a much wider range of potential pathogens (bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic agents). Use of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technology offers the possibility of identifying causative agents for the approximately 50% of all such presentations which go un-diagnosed. The investigators propose a study involving a collaboration between the EMERGEncy ID NET, a network of 10 geographically diverse university-affiliated urban emergency departments (coordinated by Olive View-UCLA Medical Center) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), to use these new technologies to address this issue.
This study will evaluate the safety, preliminary efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of momelotinib (MMB) and erlotinib, as well as define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of momelotinib (MMB) combined with erlotinib in adults with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated, EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) naive metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Participants will be sequentially enrolled to receive progressively increasing doses of momelotinib (MMB) in combination with erlotinib. Escalation of momelotinib (MMB) doses will proceed to the MTD, defined as the highest tested dose associated with dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) during the first 28 days of combined erlotinib and momelotinib (MMB) treatment. There will be four dose levels and each treatment cycle will consist of 28 days.
Myocardial necrosis is relatively frequent after percutaneous coronary intervention and is associated with higher mortality during the follow-up. Since anti-inflammatory properties of statins have been demonstrated and the benefit of statins in acute coronary syndromes have been proven, this study aims at testing the hypothesis that the pre-procedural intensive statin treatment reduce the extent of peri-procedural necrosis.
Initial evaluation of safety and performance of FibroFix™ Meniscus scaffold
Study is a multicenter, two-part, open-label phase II study in adults, evaluating the safety and long-term efficacy of PF-06473871 one year after surgical revision and treatment with PF-06473871.
This was an open-label, phase Ib, multicenter clinical trial to determine the MTD/RDE of the orally administered c-MET inhibitor INC280 in combination with cetuximab. This combination was to be explored in c-MET positive mCRC and HNSCC patients whose disease progressed on cetuximab or panitumumab treatment. The dose escalation part was to be guided by a Bayesian Logistic Regression Model with overdose control. At MTD/RDE, additional mCRC and HNSCC patients who progressed on cetuximab or panitumumab treatment were to be enrolled in two expansion groups to further assess the anti-tumor activity and the safety and tolerability of the combination of INC280 and cetuximab. Patients were to receive INC280 on a continuous bid dosing regimen and cetuximab every week. A treatment cycle was defined as 28 days with no scheduled break between cycles. The trial was terminated because of difficulties in identifying patients who met the eligibility criteria.
Study ALD-103 will be a multi-site, global, prospective and retrospective data collection study that is designed to evaluate outcomes of allo-HSCT in male subjects with CALD ≤17 years of age.
This study will investigate whether pazopanib can reduce epistaxis and improve anaemia in subjects with hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) at a dose that is well tolerated. The study will have 2 parts. Part A will be an open label, dose-escalation study in which up to 4 cohorts of approximately 6 subjects each will receive increasing doses of pazopanib for a maximum of 12 weeks. The dose in the first cohort will be 50mg per day and the maximum dose in a cohort will be 400 mg per day. Dose escalation will not occur as planned if the predefined safety stopping criteria are met or at least 4 subjects in a cohort have demonstrated efficacy (as measured by epistaxis, haemoglobin, transfusion or iron infusion requirements). If efficacy is demonstrated in Part A with an acceptable safety profile, Part B will be initiated to further define the optimal dose(s) including dose duration/schedule and to provide further support for the proof of mechanism. Approximately 15 subjects will participate and will be randomised to active or placebo in a ratio of 3:2. This part of the study will be double-blind.
A multi-center Phase Ib/II study of the combination of RO5479599 with carboplatin and paclitaxel once in every 3 week (q3w) regimen to evaluate the safety and tolerability.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Ceftaroline Fosamil versus Vancomycin plus Aztreonam in treatment of patients with complicated bacterial skin and soft tissue infections.
