The Effects of Early and Late Injection of Botulinum Toxin Type A on Upper Limb Function in Patients...
StrokeThe aim of this study is to determine whether early use of OnabotulinumtoxinA is more effective to improve functional outcomes of upper limb in patients with stroke.

PLX3397 Plus Sirolimus in Unresectable Sarcoma and Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors
SarcomaMalignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath TumorsThe purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with PLX3397 and Sirolimus will be tolerated and result in shrinking of the cancer or stopping the cancer from growing. In the phase I portion, the maximum tolerate dose of the study drug will be determined. In the Phase II portion, progression free survival will be assessed at the dose level found in Phase I. Participants will continue to take the study drug until they experience an unacceptable side effect or their disease progresses. Funding Source - FDA OOPD

Germ Cell TumorThe purpose of this study is to determine whether accelerated BEP chemotherapy is more effective than standard BEP chemotherapy in males with intermediate and poor-risk metastatic germ cell tumours.

Intravenous Iron for Treatment of Anaemia Before Cardiac Surgery
AnaemiaThis randomised double-blind, controlled phase IV trial will compare the efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness of preoperative IV iron with placebo in patients with anaemia before elective cardiac surgery.

A Safety and Effectiveness Study of Pre-operative Artesunate in Stage II/III Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal CancerBowel CancerThis study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of pre-operative artesunate given orally once a day for 14 days prior to surgery in patients with Stage II/III colorectal cancer. Artesunate is an established antimalarial drug with an excellent safety profile, is well tolerated and affordable. A number of laboratory studies and one small pilot clinical study in patients with colorectal cancer have shown that artesunate can reduce the proliferation and growth of cancer cells. Two hundred patients diagnosed with Stage II/III operable colorectal cancer will be randomly allocated to receive oral artesunate 200mg daily or a matching placebo for 14 days prior to surgery. Patients will be followed up closely for 5 years to see if giving artesunate preoperatively reduces the risk of cancer recurring after surgery.

Phase 2 Trial of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (MiSLE)
Systemic Lupus ErythematosusThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) obtained from umbilical cords for the treatment of adults with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The goal of this study is to determine if patients receiving an MSC infusion plus standard of care respond better than patients receiving placebo infusion plus standard of care.

Brain Computer Interface: Neuroprosthetic Control of a Motorized Exoskeleton
Traumatic Tetraplegia With Cervical Cord InjuryThe BCI project falls within the very broad field of brain machine interfaces. Its multiple applications include the compensation of motor deficits. The subject of the present protocol is the first test of the system in man on the compensation of motor deficits by an epidural brain implant enabling an electrocorticogram (EcoG) to be recorded.
