Active clinical trials for "Recurrence"

This phase I trial investigates the side effects and best dose of abexinostat and palbociclib when given together with fulvestrant in treating patients with breast or gynecologic cancer. Abexinostat may prevent tumor cells from growing and multiplying and may kill tumor cells. Palbociclib may prevent or slow the growth of tumor cells when used with other anti-hormonal therapy. Estrogen can cause the growth of breast and gynecologic tumor cells. Fulvestrant may help fight breast or gynecologic cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells. Giving abexinostat, palbociclib, and fulvestrant may work better in treating patients with breast or gynecologic cancer.

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of loncastuximab tesirine in combination with carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan (BEAM) chemotherapy regimen in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has come back (recurrent) or has not responded to treatment (refractory). Loncastuximab tesirine is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy with loncastuximab tesirine may kill more cancer cells.

This pilot clinical trial studies short-infusion ziv-aflibercept in treating patients with metastatic colorectal cancer receiving combination chemotherapy. Ziv-aflibercept may stop the growth of colorectal cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving the drug over a shorter infusion time may result in improved efficiency and patient satisfaction.

The purpose of the first part of this study or the dose escalation portion of the study is to determine what dose of BKM120 and Abraxane is safe to give when the two drugs are used at the same time in patients who are diagnosed with a solid cancer. A solid cancer is a cancer that does not involve the blood, bone marrow or lymph nodes. Dose escalation determines the least toxic and most effect dose of this drug combination for treatment. Once this dose is established, it will be used for the dose expansion phase of the study where we will determine the effect of BKM120 and Abraxane in women diagnosed with a recurrent endometrial or ovarian cancer. We will see whether the combination of both drugs improves the response and survival of patients treated on the two drug regimen. Also we will try to find out whether there are changes in tumors that can help us determine what patients are more likely to respond to BKM120 and Abraxane.

This phase II portion of the trial is studying the side effects and best dose of temsirolimus when given together with sorafenib and to see how well they work in treating patients with metastatic, recurrent, or unresectable melanoma. Sorafenib and temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Sorafenib may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib together with temsirolimus may kill more tumor cells.

This clinical trial studies nanoscale artificial nose (NA-NOSE) in monitoring response and detecting recurrence after surgery or radiation therapy in patients with stage I or stage II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Using the NA-NOSE breath test may be an effective way to monitor response and detect recurrence of NSCLC after surgery or radiation therapy.

Using the subject with hepatocellular carcinoma in the conventional therapy to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ginsenoside Rg3 (20mg BID) and placebo in prevention and treatment of postoperative recurrence of liver cancer,respectively

This study is about two chemotherapy study drug combinations (regimens) that are used for urothelial (bladder or upper urinary tract) cancer. Both study drug regimens, gemcitabine (gemcitabine hydrochloride) plus cisplatin, and high-dose-intensity MVAC (methotrexate, vinblastine, doxorubicin plus cisplatin), are standard chemotherapy regimens. Both regimens are used to treat people with urothelial cancer that has spread to other organs. Both study drug regimens have been proven to be effective in lowering the risk of the cancer coming back, but it is not known which regimen is the best. This study hopes to learn whether there is a difference in the effectiveness and side effects of these two study drug regimens when they are given to people who have had their urothelial cancer completely removed.

Anorexia Nervosa inpatient treatment has often a short-term success as weight is restored to a healthy level, but high percentage of patients relapse during the first year following the discharge. The development of strategies to overcome this problem represents a priority for clinicians. Aim of this trial is to evaluate the effects of a relapse prevention program based on cognitive dissonance theory developed for hospitalized patients.

Main objective: To determine the optimal molar doses of the biospecific antibody TF2 and 68 Ga-IMP-288 and the optimal time for pretargeting for immuno-PET in patients with breast carcinoma. Secondary objectives: To study the sensitivity of the immuno-PET, compare its performance to standard imaging methods, evaluate the safety of 150 MBq of 68 Ga-IMP-288; study the development of immunization against TF2 or complex TF2-IMP-288;
