Filter by:This is an open label Phase 1b clinical trial of IV administration of OKN-007 in a pilot cohort of human recurrent malignant glioma patients. All patients will have been previously treated with the standard-of-care treatment which includes surgical resection, radiation and chemotherapy, and in some cases treatment for recurrent disease with investigational agents or bevacizumab (Avastin). Patients with unequivocal recurrence (first or greater) established by MRI with and without contrast (e.g., Gd-DTPA (Gadolinium-diethylene triamine pentacetic acid) and meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria, will be eligible for OKN-007 treatment on this protocol.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of romidepsin in treating patients with lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or solid tumors with liver dysfunction. Romidepsin may stop the growth of cancer cells by entering the cancer cells and by blocking the activity of proteins that are important for the cancer's growth and survival.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of vandetanib and everolimus when given together in treating patients with cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Vandetanib and everolimus may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of bevacizumab and temsirolimus alone or in combination with valproic acid or cetuximab in treating patients with a malignancy that has spread to other places in the body or other disease that is not cancerous. Immunotherapy with bevacizumab and cetuximab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as valproic acid, 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. It is not yet known whether bevacizumab and temsirolimus work better when given alone or with valproic acid or cetuximab in treating patients with a malignancy or other disease that is not cancerous.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of BTK inhibitor PCI-32765 when given together with rituximab and bendamustine hydrochloride in treating patients with recurrent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). BTK inhibitor PCI-32765 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as bendamustine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving BTK inhibitor PCI-32765 together with rituximab and bendamustine hydrochloride may kill more cancer cells.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of recombinant interleukin-12 when given together with cetuximab and to see how well they work in treating patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck that has come back, spread to another place in the body, or cannot be removed by surgery. Recombinant interleukin-12 may stimulate the white blood cells to kill tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread Giving recombinant interleukin-12 together with cetuximab may kill more tumor cells.
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common primary brain tumor in adults. The treatment comprises maximal safe resection followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Despite appropriate management, 90% of the patients will develop relapse or progression. After progression, the median survival is 5.2 months (Stupp, 2009). The treatment of GBM relapse remains investigational. Reirradiation is an option in selected cases. The objective of this study is to compare 2 schemes of stereotactic hypofractionated radiotherapy in the management of recurrent GBM.
PRINCIPAL OBJECTIVE: Evaluation of effectiveness in terms of survival without metastases to 10 years, of adjuvant hormonal treatment with leuprorelin acetate (Eligard® 45 mg) for 24 months after radical prostatectomy in patients with high risk of recurrence. SECONDARY OBJECTIVE(S): - PSA evolution - Evaluation of testosterone level - Specific survival - Overall survival - Tolerance - Quality of life (QLQ-C30 questionnaires)
The prevalence of tobacco use in the military is too high. This study is designed to take advantage of the 8.5 weeks of forced tobacco cessation during Basic Military Training and develop effective interventions to prevent tobacco relapse. Hypotheses or Research Questions: - Are there differences in the rate of relapse between three groups participating in a tobacco abstinence maintenance intervention? - Do the tobacco abstinence maintenance interventions delay relapse?
The aim of the study is to evaluate whether tamoxifen at a low dose of 5mg/d reduces in the long term the incidence of invasive breast cancer and ductal carcinoma in situ, DCIS (DIN 1c, 2, 3) of the breast, in woman operated for lobular intraepithelial neoplasia (LIN1, 2 and 3) or ER-positive ductal intraepithelial neoplasia (DIN 1b, DIN2, DIN3, 1a excluded) of the breast. To improve the risk-benefit ratio, the use of lower doses of the drug has been proposed. Biomarker trials revealed that 5 mg/d was noninferior to 20 mg/d in inhibiting proliferation of breast cancer and normal endometrial tissue. By contrast, the risk of endometrial cancer si dose-dependent, and the dose reduction can lead a substantial decrease. Morover a dose of 5 mg/day is associated with an overall decrease of the estrogenic activity of tamoxifen on insulin like growth factor (IGF-I), sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and antithrombin-III, with a decrease of venous thromboembolic events. Moreover, tamoxifen exhibits a high tissue distribution, so that a dose of 5 mg/day attains at the breast tissue level a concentration 10 times higher than that needed to inhibit cell growth in vitro. A prospective cohort study also showed that 10 mg on alternate days halves recurrence of DCIS in postmenopausal women. It has been shown that the treatment of dysplasia or pre-cancer drives the reduction of the invasive neoplasms onset. This is a chemoprevention trial designed to validatate the low-dose Tamoxifen in women with diseases at high evolutionary risk. The demonstration of efficacy and safety of such a treatment for the prevention of the invasive breast cancer would lead improvements in term of survival and quality of life for the patients at increased risk.
