Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of rosuvastatin that can be given in combination with standard erlotinib treatment in patients with advanced incurable squamous cell cancer and NSCLC.
The purpose of this trial is to improve the clinical management and outcome of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer by using positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) imaging. There is considerable debate worldwide regarding the utility of PET for staging cervical cancer. Although there are studies on the accuracy (sensitivity and specificity) of PET in cervical cancer, there are currently no prospective randomized studies on how PET information affects treatment decisions and outcomes.
Phase: Exploratory Study Objectives: To collect drug bio-distribution data, begin collection of baseline and tumor/background imaging data, acquire experience to improve study design and the conduct of future studies Design: Exploratory, open label, nonrandomized, multi-center study Duration: Three visits - one screening, one imaging, and one follow-up visit at 24 hours post-dose Procedures: Informed consent, collection of demographic information and medical history, physical examinations, vital signs, 12-lead ECGs, routine blood tests to assess major organ functions, complete blood counts and clinical chemistries for safety, blood sample for CA-IX assay, pre-dose and post-dose blood samples for metabolite analysis, dosing with [F-18]VM4-037, PET imaging scan, dosimetry estimation (normals), urine collections (normals), tumor immunohistochemistry with CA-IX biomarker, follow up to imaging to collect adverse events Subjects: Approximately sixteen (16) adult subjects including four (4) healthy volunteers and twelve (12) cancer subjects who have confirmed or highly suspected diagnosis of head & neck, lung, large solitary hepatic and renal cell cancer, as defined by protocol criteria
RATIONALE: Testosterone may lessen weight loss and improve muscle size and strength in patients with cachexia caused by cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase I trial is studying whether testosterone administered during standard of care chemotherapy and/or radiation works by helping patients with squamous cell carcinoma to maintain their body weight and muscle size and strength during treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine the difference of skin carotenoid levels between subjects with previous squamous cell carcinomas (SCC), subjects with previous basal cell carcinomas (BCC) and a control group.
The primary objective of this study is to (1) determine whether local injection of lidocaine used during Mohs surgery will elevate serum lidocaine concentrations to a level that could cause systemic symptoms and (2) determine whether sustained high levels of serum lidocaine occur after intralesional anesthesia on the face and neck. This study is a cross-sectional study of 10 subjects with basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the face or neck requiring Mohs micrographic surgery. The study will consist of a brief questionnaire and blood draws during their Moh's surgical procedure.
Patients were eligible if they had biopsy proven, previously untreated T3 with fixed cord involvement squamous cell carcinoma of the pyriform sinus. The study compare conventional radiotherapy with concurrent cisplatin to induction chemotherapy with cisplatin fluorouracil followed by conventional radiotherapy. The primary end point was the preservation of the larynx. The secondary end points included toxicity, causes of death and survival rates.
This will be a study where all patients will undergo a two-step procedure: Step 1 - Physicians examine the problem area of skin ONLY and record result. Step 2 - Physicians perform TBSE and record result. Eventual lesions suggestive of melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers will be recorded after step 1 or step 2 examination and will be finally biopsied and histopathologically diagnosed. Exceptions to biopsy may include patients with multiple non-melanoma skin cancers (e.g. actinic keratoses or basal cell carcinomas). Each center will be provided with an electronic data sheet for patients record, or alternatively, with a paper record form. Endpoints of the study are new parameters concerning the standard of care for skin cancer screening. We expect to conclude that TBSE enables clinicians discovering an increased number of skin cancers thus resulting in earlier detection.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of pharmaceutical compound 31510 in a topical cream when applied to in situ cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma and to obtain preliminary efficacy data for the treatment of in situ cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma by Compound 31510 topical cream.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new instrument that shines light and takes digital pictures of skin. The goal is to develop a technique that may enable fast and accurate detection of skin disorders and cancers for future clinical diagnosis and surgical use.
