Active clinical trials for "Neoplasm Metastasis"

The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of cinacalcet after a single oral dose in children aged 28 days to less than 6 years with chronic kidney disease receiving dialysis.

The current clinical trial shall clarify the efficacy, safety and biologic effects of neoadjuvant treatment with natural interferon-α (Multiferon) in patients with locoregional metastases of melanoma in stage IIIB/C.

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an experimental workflow that may result in a faster way to plan and deliver radiation for the treatment of pain caused by metastatic bone tumors (tumors that originally came from another organ and have spread to bones causing pain) or multiple myeloma (a type of cancer that begins in white blood cells that produce antibodies). The current standard of care radiation treatment planning and delivery takes 2 to 3 weeks from start to finish. The investigators have developed an experimental workflow: a radiation treatment planning and delivery workflow called "STAT RT" (STAT means "right away", and RT means radiation therapy). This experimental workflow may shorten the time it takes to plan and treat painful bone metastases to 1 week or less. All steps in this process will be performed within the current standard of care but in a shorter time frame to allow treatment to start sooner. The investigators will evaluate effectiveness by requesting patients to complete pain and quality of life questionnaires before and after treatment. The investigators will also be collecting additional information from their treatments that will help us make future workflows even more efficient.

The study will determine the effects of three doses of Androxal(enclomiphene citrate)on morning testosterone versus AndroGel(approved topical treatment)in men with low testosterone (<350 ng/dL)after 6 weeks of continuous dosing.

The main purpose of this first human study with CC-115 is to assess the safety and action of a new class of experimental drug (dual DNA-PK and TOR kinase inhibitors) in patients with advanced tumors unresponsive to standard therapies and to determine the appropriate dose and tumor types for later-stage clinical trials. The bioavailability of tablet and capsule formulations under fasting and fed conditions will also be evaluated in some patients.

Skin infections may complicate the treatment of atopic dermatitis.The use of topical ointments has become very important to avoid the use of oral antibiotics. There is little supporting literature regarding the use of topical antibiotics in secondarily infected atopic dermatitis. This study will investigate the safety and effectiveness of Altabax ointment use in treating secondarily infected atopic dermatitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes.

Background: - A protein called HIF is believed to be involved both in forming cancers and helping them to grow after they are formed. EZN-2968 is a new type of cancer drug that goes into the cancer cell and switches off the production of the HIF protein. Researchers are interested in testing EZN-2968 in people who have liver cancer because studies have shown that this drug travels to the liver and stays there when the drug is given through a vein. Objectives: - To determine the safety and effectiveness of EZN-2968 on liver cancer. Eligibility: - Individuals 18 years of age and older who have been diagnosed with liver cancer that has not responded to standard treatments. Design: Participants will have an initial screening visit with a physical examination, blood and urine tests, and imaging studies to assess tumor size. Tumor biopsies may also be taken for research purposes. Participants will have an undefined number of 6-week treatment cycles of EZN-2968, given once a week for 3 weeks followed by 3 weeks without the drug. During each cycle, participants will have additional blood tests and imaging scans to assess tumor response to treatment. Cycles of treatment with EZN-2968 may continue until the treatment is not effective, illness requires participants to stop taking the study drug, or the participant chooses to withdraw from the study.

This study will evaluate zoledronic acid's anti-cancer effects and Circulating Tumor Cell (CTCs) measurements in patients with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer without bone metastasis.

Study CXBA is a multicenter nonrandomized, dose escalation, open-label, Phase 1 study of intravenous LY2624587 in patients with advanced or metastatic cancer for which no treatment of higher priority exists.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and tolerability and efficacy of multiple ascending doses of etelcalcetide in hemodialysis patients for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (HPT).
