Active clinical trials for "Acute Disease"

1.1 Primary Objectives To determine the feasibility, tolerability, and toxicities of administering the selective CDK 4/6 inhibitor PD 0332991 prior to the combination of ara-C and Mitoxantrone for adults with relapsed and refractory acute leukemias and high risk myelodysplasias (MDS), including primary refractory disease To determine the direct cytotoxic effects of single agent PD 0332991 on malignant blasts To determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of PD 0332991 in timed sequential combination with ara-C and Mitoxantrone To determine if the timed sequential combination of PD 0332991 with ara-C and mitoxantrone can induce clinical responses in adults with relapsed or refractory acute leukemias and high-risk MDS 1.2 Secondary Objectives: To determine the ability of PD 0332991 to directly induce apoptosis in malignant cell populations in vivo To obtain pharmacodynamic (PD) data regarding the ability of PD 0332991 to arrest malignant cells in the G 1 phase of cell cycle, followed by synchronized release of those cells into S phase upon discontinuation of PD 0332991 and resultant enhanced ara-C cytotoxicity

N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is described as having mucolytic and antioxidant properties. It is widely prescribed for patients with chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD), particularly for those who have accompanying symptoms of chronic cough and sputum production. Compared to placebo, high-dose NAC will improve Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire scores in patients with COPD and chronic bronchitis.

The main objective of this randomized trial is to compare disease-free survival (DFS) in high risk leukemia patients who underwent haploidentical HCT followed by an add back strategy of HSV-Tk donor lymphocytes or standard haploidentical HCT

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of ION-827359 on forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) in participants with mild to moderate COPD with CB.

[Updated]: To assess the safety and tolerability of ONO-7475 monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia or relapsed or refractory myelodysplastic syndromes and to assess: i) safety and tolerability and ii) preliminary efficacy of the combination of ONO-7475 and venetoclax in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

This is a phase I study of vincristine, doxorubicin and dexamethasone (modified VXD) plus MLN9708 in adults with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma, lymphoblastic lymphoma or mixed phenotype acute leukemia.

Study objectives: to document the clinical efficacy of telithromycin(800 mg per day for 5 days) at Test Of the Cure (TOC)visit (D12-D19), in acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis. to assess the long-term clinical efficacy of telithromycin by telephone at D25-D35 (V3) to assess the safety of telithromycin

Identifying the role of antibiotics in the treatment of subjects with a microbiologically documented acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis (AECB) is the purpose of this clinical trial. The trial has been designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of faropenem medoxomil versus placebo in the treatment of subjects with microbiologically documented AECB.

MiRNAs are noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) that drive post-transcriptional negative regulation of gene expression by promoting the degradation or translational blockade of their target mRNAs. MiRNAs are 21-24-nucleotide-long RNA molecules that are processed from longer RNA precursors (pri-miRNAs) , and either the 5' or the 3' strand of the mature miRNA duplex is loaded into the Argonaute (AGO) family of proteins to form a miRNA-induced silencing complex (miRISC) When bound to AGO proteins, mature miRNAs destabilize or inhibit the translation of partially complementary target mRNAsMiRNA-124 has been shown to be a tumor suppressor, and a decrease in its expression level is typical of tumors of various localization, but there is no evidence of the role of miRNA-124 in the development of NHL . There are a number of studies reflecting the involvement of miRNA-124 in hematopoiesis. Liu et al. showed that miRNA-124 regulates Tip110 that is involved in the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cellsThe let-7 family has been shown to influence the pathogenesis of a variety of hematological malignancies through the changing expression of a number of oncogenic pathways, particularly those related with MYC and that might affect hematopoietic carcinogenesis through the modulation of inflammatory pathways

The purpose of the study is to compare alfuzosin GITS once daily versus placebo in achieving a successful TWOC after AUR due to BPH, among Chinese males in Hong Kong, and in delaying or avoiding a TURP.
