Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate how effective lower doses of CPX-351 are in older participants with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not eligible to receive intensive chemotherapy and in participants with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) after Hypomethylating Agents (HMA) failure.
To assess the efficacy and safety of 0.5mg Fingolimod (Gilenya) in Chinese patients with relapsing relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS)
Safety and Effectiveness of the PXL-Platinum 330 System for Corneal Collagen Cross-linking in Eyes With Corneal Thinning Conditions
Establish a cardiovascular biomarker profile to help screening for congenital heart disease in infants and children as well as use non-invasive cardiac imaging in combination with such profiling to better predict the need for future cardiac interventions such as open heart surgery or cardiac catheter intervention selected types of with congenital heart disease.
Evaluate the safety and tolerability of pegcrisantaspase in combination with venetoclax (Ven-PegC) and estimate the maximum tolerated doses and/or biologically active doses of Ven-PegC in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML)
For patients with kidney failure the two treatment options are kidney transplantation or dialysis. Transplantation offers longer survival, better quality of life and provides cost savings for the health system (>$60,000/year per patient). Unfortunately, there are not enough organs available and 20% of patients die on dialysis waiting for a deceased donor kidney. Living kidney donation is a safe and proven treatment that leads to even better patient and health system outcomes than deceased donor kidney transplant. The Kidney Health Strategic Clinical Network (KH-SCN) identified increasing living kidney donation as a priority and in 2015 established the Living Donor Kidney Transplant Working Group (LDKTWG) comprised of patients, donors, health care professionals, researchers, and administrators. In an evidenced review published by the investigators, the intervention with the best evidence and greatest impact was personalized support provided by a multidisciplinary team to inform and educate the patients' social network. This intervention increased living kidney donations by 34%. The investigators confirmed through a province wide survey that many patients with kidney failure are unable to find a living kidney donor and find it difficult to approach potential donors due to lack of skills, supports, and resources and these issues are particularly apparent in vulnerable populations. The investigators have developed the Multidisciplinary Support To Access living donor Kidney Transplant (MuST AKT) intervention to support patients in identifying and communicating with their social networks. The investigators will test the effectiveness of this intervention.
This study is being conducted to assess the safety and tolerability of relugolix with other agents approved for use in combination with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for a 12-week treatment period and an additional 40-week safety extension period in men with prostate cancer, either metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) or non-metastatic or metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC or mCRPC).
China with high incidence of esophageal cancer, the number of new cases and deaths account for about 50% of the world every year. In the past few decades, surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other treatments were continuously improved, however, the mortality of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients was not significantly decreased. For patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer, direct surgery is not effective. It is difficult to achieve radical resection by surgery merely, and even if many patients receive surgery, they may eventually have tumor recurrence and poor survival rate. Therefore, it is necessary to explore effective perioperative neoadjuvant treatment to reduce the risk of postoperative recurrence and improve the postoperative survival rate of patients. According to the reports, the expression of PD-L1 in esophageal cancer was about 41.4%. Therefore, PD-1/ PD-L1 immunocheckpoint inhibitor may become a new method for the treatment of esophageal cancer. Preliminary clinical results showed that immunotherapy combined with chemoradiotherapy provided a synergies antitumor effect. Multiple clinical results showed that Carrillizumab provided higher overall response rate for advanced esophageal cancer. However, in patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer, the efficacy of Carrillizumab combined with chemotherapy and apatinib for sequential radical surgery is still unclear. The purpose of this study is to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Carrillizumab combined with chemotherapy and antiangiogenic drugs in the neoadjuvant therapy of resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of atezolizumab plus tiragolumab and atezolizumab plus placebo as first-line (1L) treatment in recurrent/metastatic PD-L1-positive squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) on the basis of confirmed objective response rate. In addition, safety, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity of atezolizumab and tiragolumab will be evaluated.
This phase II trial studies the effect of polatuzumab vedotin, rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide as initial salvage therapy in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Polatuzumab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, polatuzumab, linked to a toxic agent called vedotin. Polatuzumab attaches to CD79b positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide, 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 chemotherapy with immunotherapy may kill more cancer cells in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
