Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well durvalumab and epacadostat work in treating patients with Epstein-Barr virus positive nasopharyngeal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), has come back (recurrent), or has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Epacadostat blocks the enzyme, IDO1, from working. Blocking this enzyme may allow for a stronger immune response against cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body?s immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving durvalumab and epacadostat may work better in treating patients with nasopharyngeal cancer compared to durvalumab alone.
Planning to study urine microbiota at baseline and after administration of bactrim antibiotics in healthy volunteers. Will intermittently collect voided urine specimens for 16 s DNA analysis over a period of 6 months after 2 weeks of bactrim or placebo.
The goal of this study is to perform a first-in-humans trial of a fully integrated, automated, closed-loop blood glucose control system designed for inpatient use. The GlucoSTAT was designed for use by patients with diabetes while they are in the hospital, and others who may develop high blood sugar as a result of their medical problems.
BB-OPMD-202 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of IV trehalose for treatment of OPMD. The study includes a 4-week screening period, a 24-week blinded treatment period during which patients will receive weekly infusions of trehalose or placebo, followed by a 24-week open-label extension period during which all patients will receive weekly infusions of trehalose. Patients will undergo a safety follow-up assessment 4 weeks after their last treatment.
ReTEECA Trial. Rescue TransEsophageal Echocardiography for In-Hospital Cardiac Arrest. This trial is aimed at studying the utility and interventional outcomes of rescue transesophageal echocardiography (RescueTEE) to aid in diagnosis, change in management, and outcomes during CPR by using a point of care RescueTEE protocol in the evaluation of in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA). This is an interventional prospective convenience sampled partially blinded phase II clinical trial with primary outcomes of survival to hospital discharge (SHD) with RescueTEE image guided ACLS versus conventional ACLS.
This phase II trial studies how well vorinostat and combination chemotherapy before donor stem cell transplantation work in treating patients with aggressive B-cell or T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back (relapsed). Vorinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as busulfan, gemcitabine, and clofarabine, 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. Giving vorinostat together with combination chemotherapy before donor stem cell transplantation may help to control lymphoma.
Researchers are trying to determine if the use of software called VIVO, made by Catheter Precision, Inc. can shorten the length of time it takes to perform an ablation procedure for either premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) and ventricular tachycardia (VT).
Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is a haematological malignancy primarily driven by the fusion oncogene BCR-ABL1, resulting in a constitutively expressed tyrosine kinase. CML is treated very effectively by the tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) resulting in almost undetectable levels of disease. However, some patients show resistance to first line treatment, requiring second and third generation TKIs. Such resistance is due to the presence of tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) mutations, however TKDs do not appear to be present in all patients who do not respond to treatment. The aim of this project is to utilise gene expression arrays to identify transcriptomic profiles associated with resistance to TKIs in the absence of a demonstrable TKD mutation. The presence of such profiles may allow for a more targeted approach to treatment, if non-responders can be identified earlier in the disease management pathway. Being able to predict those that will not respond to first line treatment will allow for better stratification of patients.
The purpose of the study is to assess timing of TTFields use as well as safety, feasibility and preliminary efficacy of treatment with TTFields in elderly patients with newly diagnosed GBM simultaneous to RT/ CRT. The primary aim of the trial is to establish a safely conducted therapy rate higher than 0.8 in the treatment arm.
To evaluate safety, immunogenicity and anti-tumor responses of intradermally delivered SNS-301 in patients with ASPH+ high risk MDS and CMML.
