Filter by:Anti-myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) is a rare autoimmune disorder of the peripheral nerves that presents with weakness, gait imbalance, and loss of sensation. It almost always occurs in the setting of excess protein buildup in the body in the form of immunoglobulin monoclonal (IgM) gammopathy. Anti-MAG neuropathy currently has no established therapies. It is diagnosed through blood tests (anti-MAG and IgM), nerve conduction studies (which showed marked velocity slowing), and clinical exam findings.The efficacy of lenalidomide has been demonstrated in anti-MAG peripheral neuropathy with two separate dosing regimens: 25mg on days 1-21 of each 28 day cycle in conjunction with oral dexamethasone 20mg/day on days 1-4 of each cycle as well as at 5mg on days 1-21 of each cycle without oral dexamethasone. This phase 1 study aims to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Lenalidomide in patients with anti-MAG neuropathy. We will explore preliminary efficacy and postulate that this drug is effective in this subset of patients, using preselected, specifically tailored outcome measures that encompass quality of life, neurologic function, serum protein levels, and focused measures of proprioception.
This study will define the limits of subretinal hemorrhage parameters that are consistent with a good visual outcome with aggressive anti-VEGF treatment in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (NVAMD).
This study will be conducted in adult participants diagnosed with NSCLC who have been previously treated for a minimum of 12 weeks with any PD-1 or PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor. This is a phase 1b/2, multi-center, open label study designed to assess safety and tolerability of grapiprant in combination with pembrolizumab, to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) with pembrolizumab, and to evaluate disease response with grapiprant based on investigator assessments. Pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and response biomarkers will also be assessed.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of IDO1 inhibitor BMS-986205 (BMS-986205) when given together with nivolumab and how well it works as first or second line therapy in treating patients with liver cancer. BMS-986205 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving BMS-986205 and nivolumab may work better in treating patients with liver cancer.
The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the long term safety of PRALUENT in participants with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (heFH) or non-familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) participants at high or very high cardiovascular risk who completed the neurocognitive function study R727-CL-1532 (NCT02957682). The secondary objectives of the study were: - To evaluate the effect of PRALUENT on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) - To evaluate the effect of PRALUENT on other lipid parameters - To evaluate the effect of PRALUENT on gonadal steroid hormones
This is a single-arm phase II study of twenty-one subjects with mucinous adenocarcinoma of the colon, rectum, or appendix with prior systemic therapy with a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan. Treatment will consist of nivolumab 480mg every 4 weeks and ipilimumab 1mg/kg every 8 weeks until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or 2 years of therapy.
Background: The pulmonary rehabilitation effects on various outcomes of COPD are well known. However, they may be lost over time due to poor adherence to therapy with absence of regular exercise maintenance in long term, disease progression, comorbidities, falls incidence and higher exacerbations frequency. Currently, the main focus is to make the patient more active and ensure the benefits maintenance. However, few studies have been concerned with the aim of to investigate the long-term effect of this intervention and the relationship of the change promoted in important outcomes of the disease with its morbidity and mortality. Design: Non-controlled clinical trial, prospective and longitudinal. Setting: Outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation program in Florianopolis, Brazil Subjects: Patients with COPD (GOLD II-IV). Interventions: Pulmonary rehabilitation program (PRP) based on physical training, conducted over 24 sessions supervised, three times a week, including aerobic training in treadmill and resistance training for upper and lower limbs. Main measures: Before, post-PRP, 6 months post-PRP and 12 months post-PRP will be measured Spirometry or Total Body Plethysmography, Triaxial Accelerometry by Dynaport Activity Monitor, Glittre ADL-Test to evaluated functional capacity and functional performance, Six-Minute Walk Test distance on tracks of 20 and 30 meters, muscle oxygenation variables by NIRS PortaLite®, force platform NeuroCom® SMART Equitest®, Timed Up and Go Test, Berg Balance Scale, Activities-specific Balance Confidence, Falls Efficacy Scale - International - Brasil, London Chest Activity of Daily Living score, Modified Medical Research Council score, Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire score, COPD Assessment Test score and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Behavioural Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire-2, Basic Psychological Needs in Exercise Scale, General self-efficacy scale, COPD self-efficacy scale, Pulmonary Rehabilitation Adapted Index of Self-Efficacy. The death cases and numbers of exacerbations and hospitalizations will be measured by monthly phone calls after PRP.
Phase 1: - To confirm the safety and anticipated recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of REGN2810 (cemiplimab) for children with recurrent or refractory solid or Central Nervous System (CNS) tumors - To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of REGN2810 given in children with recurrent or refractory solid or CNS tumors Phase 2 (Efficacy Phase): - To confirm the safety and anticipated RP2D of REGN2810 to be given concomitantly with conventionally fractionated or hypofractionated radiation among patients with newly diagnosed diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) - To confirm the safety and anticipated RP2D of REGN2810 given concomitantly with conventionally fractionated or hypofractionated radiation among patients with newly diagnosed high-grade glioma (HGG) - To confirm the safety and anticipated RP2D of REGN2810 given concomitantly with re-irradiation in patients with recurrent HGG - To assess PK of REGN2810 in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed DIPG, newly diagnosed HGG, or recurrent HGG when given in combination with radiation - To assess anti-tumor activity of REGN2810 in combination with radiation in improving overall survival at 12 months (OS12) among patients with newly diagnosed DIPG - To assess anti-tumor activity of REGN2810 in combination with radiation in improving progression-free survival at 12 months (PFS12) among patients with newly diagnosed HGG - To assess anti-tumor activity of REGN2810 in combination with radiation in improving overall survival at OS12 among patients with recurrent HGG
This research study is being done in people with advanced-stage solid tumor cancer. Advanced stage solid tumor cancer is a cancer that forms an abnormal mass of tissue that usually does not contain cysts or liquid areas. Different types of solid tumors are named for the type of cells that form them. Examples of solid tumors include lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, kidney cancer, colorectal cancer, melanoma and sarcoma. The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety of the investigational study drug, FN-1501, at different dose levels. FN-1501 has not previously been given to human subjects. It is intended for the treatment in this study of patients with advanced solid tumor cancers. This study will determine the effects, good and/or bad, on patients' cancer. The main objective of this study is to define the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of FN-1501. The MTD is the highest dose a person can take without having bad side effects, and the RP2D will be the dose of FN-1501 used in future studies.
