This single arm study will assess the feasibility of using Avastin plus platinum-based chemotherapy (cisplatin-gemcitabine or carboplatin-paclitaxel) in patients with advanced or recurrent squamous non-small cell lung cancer who have not received prior chemotherapy. Patients will receive preventive radiation, followed by one cycle of chemotherapy alone and 5 cycles of chemotherapy in combination with Avastin (15mg/kg iv on day 1 of each 3 weekly cycle), followed by Avastin alone for a maximum total treatment period with Avastin of 12 months. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
The purpose of this study is to assess the analgesic efficacy of flexibly-dosed pregabalin in the adjunctive treatment of subjects with cancer-induced bone pain.
Prevention and treatment of the severity of symptoms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.
This study is being conducted to compare the safety and effectiveness of the investigational medication LdT (telbivudine) used in combination with adefovir dipivoxil (a drug currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration [FDA] for the treatment of hepatitis B virus [HBV]) versus adefovir dipivoxil used alone. The results for patients taking the combination therapy will be compared to the results for patients taking adefovir alone.

Secondary To evaluate the tolerability and safety of satavaptan on top of diuretic drugs over a 52-week treatment period in patients with cirrhosis of the liver and recurrent ascites. The one-year double blind placebo controlled period is extended up to 2 years in a long term safety study (PASCCAL-2).
We have recently demonstrated that pentoxifylline (PTX) has the potential to treat severe glomerular inflammation in a rat model of accelerated anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) glomerulonephritis. This study aims to investigate the therapeutic effects of combined PTX and conventional immunosuppressive regimens on patients with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis.
