Filter by:The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 3 doses of Somatuline Autogel 60mg to control the muscle infiltration and edema, eyelid retraction and extraocular muscular contraction in patients with active thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy of moderate intensity.
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of fenretinide and to see how well it works when given together with rituximab in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fenretinide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some find cancer cells and kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Others interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving fenretinide together with rituximab may kill more cancer cells.
Diabetic Retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness in the world. Previous studies have documented beneficial effects of physiologic administration of pulsatile insulin on a variety of diabetic complications such as nephropathy, hypertension, glycemic control, etc. Similar pathogenetic mechanisms have been postulated for diabetic retinal disease. This study examines the effect of pulsatile insulin on patients with varying stages of diabetic retinal disease.
This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel groups study to determine whether prosptide is effective in relieving pain in patients who have sensory neuropathic pain related to their HIV infection or the drugs used to treat it.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of the combination of the two drugs, docetaxel (Taxotere®) and carboplatin (Paraplatin®) followed by radiation directed at the tumor in treating your endometrial cancer.
This study is testing if a medication called domperidone will help women produce more milk so that they can keep breastfeeding and not use formula. The study is also testing what dose of domperidone works best to increase breast milk production.
RATIONALE: A peripheral stem cell transplant or an umbilical cord blood transplant from a donor may be able to replace blood-forming cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Giving an infusion of the donor's white blood cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) after the transplant may help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Methotrexate, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, or methylprednisolone may stop this from happening. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well a donor stem cell transplant or donor white blood cell infusions work in treating patients with hematologic cancer.
This is an open-label, two-arm, multicenter Phase IA/II dose-escalation study of PTK787 in combination with Pemetrexed alone (Cohort 1) or Pemetrexed and Cisplatin (Cohort 2). This study is designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of PTK787 when administered in combination with Pemetrexed or Pemetrexed and Cisplatin, and to characterize the safety, tolerability, biologic activity, and PK profile of PTK787 in adult patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancers and mesotheliomas.
A randomized controlled trial compared the clinical outcomes of transported pediatric patients monitored with an oscillometric blood pressure device versus those monitored with a near-continuous, noninvasive blood pressure.
The purpose of this pilot is to initiate a program of research into the development of effective medication techniques to treat those children with ADHD who are referred because they are "partial" or "non-responders" to standard stimulant treatment.
