Filter by:Obatoclax may stop the growth of non-Hodgkin lymphoma by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Bortezomib and obatoclax may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving obatoclax together with bortezomib may kill more cancer cells. This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of obatoclax when given together with bortezomib and to see how well they work in treating patients with aggressive relapsed or recurrent non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
The aim of the study is to determine the safety and feasibility of giving an adeno-associated viral vector expressing the sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA2a), driven by the CMV promoter (AAV1-CMV-SERCA2a), to heart failure patients that have received a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) for an accepted clinical indication.
Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB) is a severe inherited blistering skin disease caused by absence of type VII collagen. Patients with RDEB develop large, severly painful blisters and open wounds from minor trauma to their skin. In the future, we hope to start a gene transfer study on a specific group of RDEB subjects and we are screening subjects for that potential trial now.
The purpose of this prospective clinical data collection is to document the performance and clinical outcomes of the ExploR® Modular Radial Head. This data collection effort will document the clinical outcomes of the radial head.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of ceftobiprole versus a comparator in patients with fever and neutropenia
We aim to investiagte whether very low dose self management of oral anticoagulation is superior to low dose oral anticoagulation in order to prevent bleeding events in patients undergoing mechanuical heart valve replacement.
This study will examine the safety and effectiveness of ranitidine (Zantac) in patients with Hyper-IgE recurrent infection syndrome, a disease characterized by recurrent infections of the ears, sinuses, lungs and skin, and abnormal levels of the antibody immunoglobulin E (IgE). Patients age 2 and older who have Hyper-IgE recurrent infection syndrome and who have had chronic or frequent infections in the last 12 months may be eligible for this study. Participants are randomly assigned to take ranitidine or placebo in pill or liquid form twice a day for 12 months. In addition to treatment, patients undergo the following procedures during visits scheduled on day 0 of the study (baseline) and at 3, 12, 15 and 24 months. Evaluations at 6, 9, 18 and 21 months are by telephone. - Medical history and physical examination - baseline and 3 and 24 months. - Clinical severity score - baseline and 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 and 24 months. - Dermatology exam - baseline and 3, 12, 15 and 24 months. - Pulmonary function test - baseline and 12 and 24 months. - Chest CT - baseline and 12 and 24 months. - Quality of life assessment - baseline and 3, 12, 15 and 24 months. - Pregnancy testing - baseline and 3, 12, 15 and 24 months. - HIV test - baseline and 12 and 24 months. - Contraception evaluation - baseline and 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 and 24 months. - Missed school/work days assessment - baseline and 3, 12, 15 and 24 months. - Medication adherence - baseline and 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 and 24 months. In addition to the above procedures, participants who are not enrolled in study 00-I-0159 have a baseline scoliosis series and genetic consult.
This study proposed the comparison the overall survival, hematological toxicity, pain reduction score,PSA levels, tumor response, quality of life in two arms of HRPC patients from different parts of India.
RATIONALE: Photodynamic therapy uses a drug that becomes active when it is exposed to a certain kind of light. When the drug is active, abnormal cells are killed. Photodynamic therapy using topical aminolevulinic acid may be effective against actinic keratosis. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well different photodynamic therapy regimens using topical aminolevulinic acid work in treating patients with actinic keratosis.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the noninvasive ventilation is more effective in the treatment of severe comunity acquired pneumonia in comparison with the conventional mechanical ventilation with orotracheal intubation.
