NCT ID: NCT05025748 Completed - Clinical trials for Stage IV Breast Cancer

Ask Questions (ASQ):Implementation of a Communication Intervention

Start date: August 25, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial implements a communication intervention to improve patient-oncologist communication in the outpatient medical oncology setting. A communication brochure called the ASQ brochure may help patients prepare for the doctor visit by thinking through the questions that patients and patients' family want to ask the doctor.

NCT ID: NCT04670445 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Stage IV Breast Cancer

Improving Patient and Caregiver Understanding of Risks and Benefits of Immunotherapy for Advanced Cancer

UPLIFT
Start date: January 23, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to refine and pilot test educational material developed to educate and support patients receiving immunotherapy for advanced cancer. The intervention is an educational video and question prompt list (QPL) to promote communication between patients, caregivers, and the oncology team about the risks and benefits of immunotherapy.

NCT ID: NCT04267575 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Stage IV Breast Cancer

Canady Helios Cold Plasma Scalpel Treatment at the Surgical Margin and Macroscopic Tumor Sites

Start date: July 30, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study designed is to evaluate the safety of Canady Helios™ Cold Plasma Scalpel (CHCPS) in patients with solid tumors with carcinomatosis scheduled to undergo surgical resection for cytoreduction. Patients with stage 4 resectable tumors as decided by a multidisciplinary disease management team may be included if the metastatic disease is non-synchronous (e.g. recurrent colorectal carcinoma with hepatic metastasis amenable for surgical resection).. Plasma is an ionized gas typically generated in high-temperature laboratory conditions. Plasma coagulators are currently used routinely as surgical tools with multiple applications that create temperatures between 37° C to 43°C and cause thermal injury. Earlier studies demonstrated the non-aggressive nature of cold plasma. As evidence accumulates, it is becoming clear that low-temperature cold plasma has an increasing role in biomedical applications.

NCT ID: NCT03229278 Completed - Lymphoma Clinical Trials

Trigriluzole With Nivolumab and Pembrolizumab in Treating Patients With Metastatic or Unresectable Solid Malignancies or Lymphoma

Start date: October 3, 2017
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of trigriluzole in combination with nivolumab and pembrolizumab in treating patients with solid malignancies or lymphoma that has spread to other places in the body or cannot be removed by surgery. Trigriluzole may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving trigriluzole in combination with nivolumab and pembrolizumab may work better at treating patients with solid malignancies or lymphoma.

NCT ID: NCT03154190 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Health Care Coach Support in Reducing Acute Care Use and Cost in Patients With Cancer

Start date: August 8, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This randomized pilot clinical trial studies health care coach support in reducing acute care use and cost in patients with cancer. Health care coach support may help cancer patients to make decisions about their care that matches what is important to them with symptom management.

NCT ID: NCT02316548 Terminated - Clinical trials for Stage IV Bladder Cancer

Surgery With or Without Postoperative Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Urothelial Bladder Cancer

Start date: February 2015
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This randomized phase II trial studies the side effects and how well postoperative intensity modulated radiotherapy works after surgery in treating patients with urothelial bladder cancer. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells left behind in the pelvis after surgery. It is not yet known whether surgery followed by radiotherapy is more effective than surgery alone in treating patients with urothelial bladder cancer.

NCT ID: NCT02122172 Terminated - Clinical trials for Stage IV Bladder Cancer

Afatinib in Advanced Refractory Urothelial Cancer

Start date: September 13, 2017
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial studies how well afatinib dimaleate works in treating patients with urothelial cancer that cannot be removed surgically and has grown after treatment with standard first-line chemotherapy. Afatinib dimaleate may turn off the function of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) receptors, which may slow the growth of cancer cells or cause some of the cells to die.

NCT ID: NCT01954173 Terminated - Bladder Cancer Clinical Trials

Adjuvant Radiation for High Risk Bladder Cancer

Start date: July 22, 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial studies how well modern, conformal radiation therapy after surgery works in treating patients with high-risk bladder cancer. Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue.

NCT ID: NCT01938573 Completed - Clinical trials for Stage IV Bladder Cancer

Sirolimus, Cisplatin, and Gemcitabine Hydrochloride in Treating Patients With Bladder Cancer

Start date: October 2013
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of sirolimus when given together with cisplatin and gemcitabine hydrochloride and to see how well they work in treating patients with bladder cancer. Biological therapies, such as sirolimus, may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin and gemcitabine hydrochloride, 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. Giving sirolimus together with cisplatin and gemcitabine hydrochloride may be an effective treatment for bladder cancer.

NCT ID: NCT01846520 Completed - Clinical trials for Psychosocial Effects of Cancer and Its Treatment

Family Caregiver Palliative Care Intervention in Supporting Caregivers of Patients With Stage II-IV Gastrointestinal, Gynecologic, Urologic and Lung Cancers

Start date: October 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This randomized clinical trial studies the Family Caregiver Palliative Care Intervention in supporting caregivers of patients with stage II-IV gastrointestinal, gynecologic, urologic and lung cancers. Education and telephone counseling may reduce stress and improve the well-being and quality of life of caregivers of cancer patients.
