Filter by:This is a 2 arms study concerning patients with primary GIST who followed an Imatinib adjuvant treatment for 3 years after surgery and who have a high risk of recurrence. In the first arm, patients will continue Imatinib treatment for 3 more years, allowing to determine if the continuation of this treatment is efficient for disease control, in terms of Disease Free Survival improvement. In the second arm, patients will discontinue the Imatinib treatment, as standard practice. This arm will allow to determine if the re-introduction of Imatinib at relapse is still an efficient treatment for the control of disease.
The effects colchicine administration for acute pericardial effusion after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) of atrial fibrillation on the recurrences of arrhythmia.
This study will assess the extent of postpartum smoking relapse among Romanian women, the associated risk factors, and will develop, implement, and pilot-test a randomized trial smoking relapse intervention incorporating innovative research concepts in a social and cultural acceptable manner. The primary hypothesis is that the intervention will increase mothers' smoking abstinence rates.
Curcumin, the active ingredient of turmeric, has been used for long term in the treatment of inflammatory conditions. Inhibition of NF-κB is postulated as the main mechanism responsible for the anti-inflammatory effect of curcumin Aim : to study the effect of curcumin, 3g per day, as compared to placebo, combined with thiopurines in the prevention of Crohn's disease post-operative recurrence.
Imnovid in combination with dexamethasone is indicated in the treatment of adult patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma who have received at least two prior treatment regimens, including both lenalidomide (Revlimid) and bortezomib (Velcade), and have demonstrated disease progression on the last therapy. Patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma who have received bortezomib, lenalidomide, dexamethasone combination, considered to be the multiple myeloma optimal treatment, can access to pomalidomide under marketing authorization only as from third line of treatment. In France this combination is not authorized for marketing for a first line treatment and only patient randomized in the IFM/DFCI 2009 trial received it. This study concerns patients previously randomized in the IFM/DFCI 2009 trial who have received bortezomib, lenalidomide and Dexamethasone combination in first line, which at progression/relapse time therapeutic opportunities remained limited and who cannot access pomalidomide under marketing authorization. This study is a multicentre, phase 2, open label, study testing the triple combination of pomalidomide and cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone (PCD) in multiple myeloma patients who are refractory or in first progression/relapse after a first line treatment with bortezomib and lenalidomide, an IMiDs (an Immuno Modulatory Drug and a proteasome inhibitor) according to the IFM/DFCI 2009 trial. In the IFM/DFCI trial, patients in arm A received eight cycles of the Velcade-Revlimid-Dexamethasone combination followed by 1 year of lenalidomide maintenance, patients in arm B received 3 cycles of Velcade-Revlimid-Dexamethasone combination plus melphalan 200mg/m2 with an autologous transplantation followed by 2 cycles of Velcade-Revlimid-Dexamethasone combination consolidation and 1 year of lenalidomide maintenance. This study will contain 3 treatment phases: - Study treatment phase: All patients will receive 4 cycles (28 days) of pomalidomide-cyclophosphamide-dexamethasone combination. - Consolidation phase (depends on the initial randomization in the IFM/DFCI 2009 trial): - For patients previously randomized in IFM/DFCI 2009's arm A: - Melphalan 200 mg/m2 followed by Autologous Transplantation - Three months after, 2 cycles of pomalidomide-cyclophosphamide-dexamethasone combination - For patients previously randomized in IFM/DFCI 2009's arm B: - 5 cycles of pomalidomide-cyclophosphamide-dexamethasone combination - Maintenance phase (identical to all patients) subsequent cycles of pomalidomide and Dexamethasone until progression / relapse or discontinuation for any other reason. For arm B patients, in case relapse occurs at least 12 months after the end of the maintenance IFM/DFCI 2009 trial, they could proceed to a second autologous transplantation and therefore follow the arm A procedure. The decision to proceed to a second transplant will be made by the physician and the patient. In order to have the same amount of patients enrolled in this trial in the initial Arm A and Arm B of the IFM/DFCI 2009 trial, once 50 patients have been included in either arm A or B, subsequent patients will be eligible if they have not been initially treated as the first 50 patients from either arm. The primary endpoint is the response rate (Partial Response (PR) or better) after 4 cycles of the triple combination pomalidomide and cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone (PCD) in the studied population using International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) response criteria.
Alcohol-dependence is a medical condition that can lead to the occurrence of an alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) in case of alcohol drinking cessation. Diazepam is the reference medication for preventing or treating AWS. The recommended average diazepam treatment duration is usually around one week, and this duration is generally not considered to impact the subsequent relapse rate in alcohol drinking. However, several previous studies have found that patients experienced frequent anxious symptoms during the weeks following detoxification. Such symptoms may foster early relapse in alcohol drinking. Furthermore, it has been suggested that this anxiety could pertain to late withdrawal symptoms. The DIAMA study hypothesizes that extending the diazepam detoxification treatment to one month can significantly reduce the cumulated relapse rate in alcohol drinking over the three following months.
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a drug called temsirolimus in combination with a drug called perifosine in treating brain tumors that have continued to grow after previous treatment. Temsirolimus is an intravenous drug approved by the FDA for treatment of other cancers (kidney cancer, certain types of lymphoma) but not for brain tumors. Perifosine is a pill that has not been approved by the FDA which blocks a messenger that tells cancer cells to grow. Research suggests that combined treatment with both drugs is better than either alone, and that it is reasonably safe.
A double-blind, phase 3 study to determine the efficacy of SPL7013 Gel when administered on alternate days for 16 weeks, compared to placebo gel in preventing the recurrence of BV in women with a history of recurrent BV.

This pilot phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of CPI-613 when given together with fluorouracil in treating patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and cannot be removed by surgery. CPI-613 may kill tumor cells by turning off their mitochondria. Mitochondria are used by tumor cells to produce energy and are the building blocks needed to make more tumor cells. By shutting off these mitochondria, CPI-613 deprives the tumor cells of energy and other supplies that they need to survive and grow in the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving CPI-613 with fluorouracil may kill more tumor cells.
