The purpose of this study is to better understand why children develop methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) skin infections that require surgical drainage and whether antibiotics are helpful after the infection is drained in the operating room.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of GRN1005 in patients with brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
This is a phase IIIb, interventional, multicenter, multinational, randomised, open-label, comparative trial which primary objective is to generate data on the ovarian stimulation profile obtained when Luveris® is started either on Day 1 or Day 6 in women in advanced reproductive age (36-42) undergoing Assisted Reproductive Technique (ART).
This study is a Phase I/II open label, multi-centre trial. Patients with HER2+ve metastatic breast cancer, following disease progression during, or after, treatment with trastuzumab and taxanes, will be treated with Lapatinib (Tyverb™ 500-1250 mg orally daily - depending on the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) determined in the Phase I part of the study) plus Myocet™, 50-60 mg/m2 i.v q3 weeks). Within the Phase I part, doses are assigned at registration according to the dose escalation scheme. The dose for the Phase II part of the trial will be based on the MTD established in the Phase I part of the study. Clinical and laboratory parameters will be assessed to evaluate disease response and toxicity of study therapy. Safety assessments will be performed every 3 weeks for the first 24 weeks. Efficacy assessments (radiological examination) will be performed on all patients every 8 weeks (± 7 days) for the first 24 weeks. Cardiotoxicity assessments will be performed at weeks 6 and 12. From week 24, safety, efficacy and cardiotoxicity assessments will be performed every 12 weeks and at the end of treatment (disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or patient withdraws consent).
This is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, phase Ib/ II study (two parts) with patients that have locally advanced or metastatic HER2 negative breast cancer. The first part (phase Ib) will investigate the MTD / Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of the combination therapy of BEZ235 twice daily (b.i.d.) and weekly paclitaxel using a Bayesian model. When MTD/ RP2D is established the second part (phase II) will start. Phase II will evaluate the efficacy and the safety of weekly paclitaxel alone compared to weekly paclitaxel plus BEZ235 bid.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and the best dose of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in treating patients with metastatic or recurrent ovarian cancer or primary peritoneal cancer. SBRT may be able to send x-rays directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue.
In particular circumstances T cells can be an effective treatment for malignant disease, for example, donor lymphocyte infusions following allogeneic transplants or treatment of EBV related lymphomas post allograft. However, many common cancers are poorly recognised by the immune system in part because of a lack of suitable T cell targets and in part because of defects in antigen presentation by tumours (Garrido, et al 1997). Genetically modified T cells engineered to express chimeric immune receptors (CIRs) on their cell surface can bypass the need for MHC presentation and thus represent an attractive approach to immunotherapy (Gross, et al 1989).
This study is performed as part of the Marketing Authorisation Holder's post-marketing pharmacovigilance plan to investigate the long-term safety, in particular the diabetogenic potential and immunogenicity of rhGH therapy in short children born small for gestational age (SGA).
The purpose of this study is to study the effect of eltrombopag on chemotherapy induced thrombocytopenia. Thrombocytopenia is when there is a low number of platelets in the blood. Sometimes, thrombocytopenia occurs as a side effect of chemotherapy treatments.
