NCT ID: NCT00785122 Completed - Clinical trials for Colorectal Carcinoma

IMA910 Plus GM-CSF With Low-dose Cyclophosphamide Pre-treatment in Advanced Colorectal Carcinoma Patients Following a Successful 12 Week First-line Treatment With Oxaliplatin-based Chemotherapy (IMA910-101)

IMA910-101
Start date: June 2008
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study is being conducted in order determine whether IMA910 as single agent with GM-CSF as adjuvant following pre-treatment with low-dose cyclophosphamide is safe and shows sufficient anti-tumour effectiveness in patients with advanced CRC to warrant further development. Secondary objectives of this study are investigation of immunological parameters and additional effectiveness endpoints. Furthermore, safety, immunological parameters and effectiveness of IMA910 as single agent with GM-CSF in combination with imiquimod following pre-treatment with low-dose cyclophosphamide will be investigated in a 2nd cohort of patients. The regular study duration for individual patients in the 1st and 2nd cohort comprises regularly 18-42 days of screening (excluding HLA-typing), 33 weeks of treatment (16 vaccinations) and 4 weeks follow-up. Thus, the period between start of screening and end of trial is about 10 months per patient. Patients will be followed for response to subsequent treatments (chemotherapies with or without targeted agents) and survival every 2 months after EOS visit until death. Patients in the 1st and 2nd cohort will be withdrawn from study treatment once a progress according to RECIST is noted. An enrolment plan for the first 6 patients included into the 1st cohort will be part of this study to ensure maximum safety of the study participants. The enrollment of the first 6 patients into the 2nd cohort will also follow an enrolment plan to ensure maximum safety.

NCT ID: NCT00781391 Completed - Stroke Clinical Trials

Patients will be randomized to one of three treatment groups: High Dose Regimen, Low Dose Regimen, & Warfarin. The expected duration of the study is 24 months.

NCT ID: NCT00777296 Completed - Cystic Fibrosis Clinical Trials

Multidose Safety and Tolerability Study of Dose Escalation of Liposomal Amikacin for Inhalation (ARIKACE™)

Start date: February 22, 2007
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

A major factor in the respiratory health of cystic fibrosis (CF) subjects is acquisition of chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections. The infection rate with P. aeruginosa increases with age and by age 18 years, 80% of CF subjects in the U.S. are infected. Liposomal Amikacin for Inhalation (Arikace™) is a sterile aqueous liposomal suspension consisting of amikacin sulfate encapsulated in liposomes. This formulation of amikacin maximizes the achievable dose and delivery to the lungs of subjects infected via a nebulizer. Because liposome particles are small enough to penetrate and diffuse through sputum into the bacterial biofilm, they deposit drug in close proximity to the bacterial colonies, thus improving the bioavailability of amikacin at the infection site. The clinically achievable doses of amikacin in the LAI formulation can effectively increase the half-life of the drug in the lungs, and decrease the potential for systemic toxicity. LAI offers several advantages over current therapies in treating CF subjects with chronic infection caused by P. aeruginosa.

NCT ID: NCT00777101 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Study Evaluating Neratinib Versus Lapatinib Plus Capecitabine For ErbB2 Positive Advanced Breast Cancer

Start date: February 4, 2009
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a study of an experimental drug (neratinib) versus a combination of drugs (lapatinib and capecitabine) in women who have erbB-2 (HER-2) positive metastatic or locally advanced breast cancer. The goal of this study is to compare the two regimens in shrinking tumors and extending the lives of women with erbB2 (HER2) positive breast cancer. The study will also compare the safety of the two regimens and to compare quality of life of patients taking the two regimens.

NCT ID: NCT00776984 Completed - Asthma Clinical Trials

Evaluation of Tiotropium 5 µg/Day Delivered Via the Respimat® Inhaler Over 48 Weeks in Patients With Severe Persistent Asthma on Top of Usual Care (Study II)

Start date: October 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The trial is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 5 µg tiotropium over a 48-week treatment period as compared to placebo. Tiotropium inhalation solution delivered by the Respimat® inhaler will be examined as add-on controller therapy on top of usual care in patients with severe persistent asthma. The primary objective of each trial is to evaluate the long term efficacy of tiotropium over placebo on top of usual care in patients with severe persistent asthma as determined by pulmonary function testing, effects on asthma exacerbations, effects on quality of life, on asthma control and health care resource utilisation. The secondary objective of each trial is to compare the long term safety of tiotropium with placebo in this patient population.

NCT ID: NCT00775138 Completed - Bronchiectasis Clinical Trials

Safety and Tolerability Study of 2 Dose Level of Arikayce™ in Patients With Bronchiectasis and Chronic Infection Due to Pseudomonas Aeruginosa.

Start date: June 24, 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a study to determine the safety and tolerability of 28 days of daily dosing of two doses (280 mg and 560 mg) of Arikayce™ versus placebo in patients who have bronchiectasis and chronic infection due to Pseudomonas infection.
