NCT ID: NCT00465491 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Small Cell Lung Cancer

Study of Picoplatin Efficacy After Relapse

SPEAR
Start date: April 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Picoplatin is a new type of platinum drug that has been investigated in several clinical trials, and may provide an improved safety profile over current treatment options. This study is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of picoplatin plus Best Supportive Care (BSC) with BSC alone. Best Supportive Care includes care and treatment to optimize the comfort of patients and their ability to function, as well as to minimize the side-effects of anti-cancer treatments.

NCT ID: NCT00448734 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Hormone Refractory Prostate Cancer

A Study of Picoplatin and Docetaxel in Subjects With Prostate Cancer

Start date: June 2006
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study will review the safety of picoplatin, a new type of platinum drug, with docetaxel, a drug commonly used in the treatment of prostate cancer. Patients who are eligible for this study will have had a diagnosis of hormone-refractory prostate cancer that has metastasized to other areas of the body, and have not been previously treated with chemotherapy drugs. Picoplatin will be administered in combination with docetaxel and prednisone to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Patients will receive IV treatments of picoplatin with docetaxel every 3 weeks, with prednisone, 5 mg orally, twice daily.

NCT ID: NCT00434369 Active, not recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

5-Fluorouracil Combined With CoFactor (5-10 Methylenetetrahydrofolate) in Treating Advanced Breast Cancer Patients

Start date: February 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

A multi-center, open-label, single-arm Phase II trial assessing the efficacy and safety of weekly bolus infusions of 5-fluorouracil combined with CoFactor (5-10 methylenetetrahydrofolate) in advanced breast cancer patients who failed anthracycline and taxane chemotherapy regimens.

NCT ID: NCT00410761 Active, not recruiting - Thyroid Cancer Clinical Trials

An Efficacy Study Comparing ZD6474 to Placebo in Medullary Thyroid Cancer

Start date: November 30, 2006
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to learn how hereditary or sporadic medullary thyroid cancer patients, treated with ZD6474, react to the drug, what happens to ZD6474 in the human body, about the side effects of ZD6474, and if ZD6474 can decrease or prevent the growth of tumors.

NCT ID: NCT00405756 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma

A Study to Compare MPR With MP in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Subjects 65 Years Old or Older.

Start date: January 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether lenalidomide is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed Multiple Myeloma who are 65 years of age or older.

NCT ID: NCT00358150 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Gaucher Disease, Type 1

A Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Eliglustat Tartrate (Genz-112638) in Type 1 Gaucher Patients

Start date: June 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Gaucher disease is a genetic disease that results in a deficiency of an enzyme acid beta-glucosidase, also known as glucocerebrosidase. This enzyme is needed to digest a substrate (lipid) called glucosylceramide and, to a lesser degree, glucosylsphingosine. In participants with Gaucher disease, the liver, spleen, bone marrow and brain show increases in lipid concentration, specifically in cells derived from the monocyte/macrophage system. Eliglustat tartrate (Genz-112638) is an oral drug that may regulate the Gaucher disease process by decreasing the synthesis of glucosylceramide. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of eliglustat tartrate, administered as an oral dose of either 50 milligram (mg) twice daily (BID) or 100 mg BID, to men and women with Gaucher disease Type 1 for 52 weeks.

NCT ID: NCT00351286 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Peripheral Arterial Disease

Efficacy Study of Oral L-Citrulline in Patients Taking Simvastatin With Peripheral Arterial Disease

Start date: March 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

To prove the combination of L-citrulline with simvastatin leads to greater improvement in the symptoms of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) than simvastatin alone by evaluating oral L- citrulline or placebo against simvastatin for improvement in treadmill walking distance in patients, 40–75 years of age, who have PAD with intermittent claudication.

NCT ID: NCT00294996 Active, not recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Trial of Myocet in Metastatic Breast Cancer

Start date: January 2006
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the study is to examine the safety and effectiveness of the drug combination of Myocet, paclitaxel and trastuzumab compared to paclitaxel and trastuzumab without Myocet, as first line treatment for patients with metastatic HER2+ breast cancer.

NCT ID: NCT00262067 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Metastatic Breast Cancer

A Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Bevacizumab in Combination With Chemotherapy in Untreated Metastatic Breast Cancer (RIBBON 1)

Start date: December 2005
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone in subjects with previously untreated metastatic breast cancer.

NCT ID: NCT00251849 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Intermittent Claudication

PROVIDENCE-1: Study of Rifalazil in Chlamydia Pneumoniae Seropositive Patients

Start date: November 2005
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to determine whether rifalazil can significantly increase peak walking time (PWT) in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
