This phase II MATCH treatment trial tests how well sunitinib in treating patients with cancer that has certain genetic changes. Sunitinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It is used in patients whose cancer has a certain mutation (change) in the cKIT gene. I…

This is a study measuring toxicity while making observations about the survival benefits of treating participants with oligometastatic disease using stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR).

The goals of this clinical study are to compare the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of study drug, tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), versus placebo in teens and children with CHB and to learn more about the dosing levels in children.

Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) represents 10-15% of all strokes and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Rapid identification and interventions, e.g. early implementation of care bundles, seem to be critical for improving outcome. Nonetheless, relatively l…

This is a phase Ib, multi-center, open label study evaluating the safety and efficacy of CT053PTSA in combination with gefitinib in patients with EGFR mutation, T790M negative NSCLC who have progressed after EGFR TKI treatment.

In Europe, breast cancer is by far the most common form of cancer diagnosed in women today, accounting for 29% of all cases. The 5-year survival rate is approximately 90%. Surgery is usually combined with radiotherapy (RT), anthracyclines, aromatase inhibitors and/or trastuzumab …

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of adding a new drug, durvalumab (also called MEDI4736), to chemoradiation with either FOLFOX/Capeox or carboplatin and paclitaxel, following initial chemotherapy with FOLFOX. The investigators want to find out what effects, good an…

This randomized phase II trial studies how well modified irinotecan hydrochloride, leucovorin calcium, fluorouracil (FOLFIRI) and veliparib as a second line of therapy work compared to FOLFIRI in treating patients with pancreatic cancer that has come back after a period of improv…

This study is being done to look at the role of continuing palbociclib treatment in combination with another type of hormonal therapy (fulvestrant) after disease progression of palbociclib in combination with an aromatase inhibitor.

The purpose of this study is to see if nab-paclitaxel combined with gemcitabine prevents the formation or growth of tumors in participants with relapsed or refractory osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma and other soft tissue sarcoma and to measure the length of time dur…

The purpose of this study is to learn the long term efficacy and side effects associated with utilizing Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) radiation for prostate cancer utilizing the Elekta Versa or Agility System. SBRT uses advanced imaging techniques to deliver targeted…

In the proposed trial, patients will be administered ribociclib prior to surgical resection of their tumor. Patients will be enrolled in time-intervals sequentially (non-randomized). All patients will be orally-administered 5 doses of LEE011 (900 mg/d) with the final dose occurri…

Plasma half-life has routinely been used to establish the dosing schedule of antipsychotics; for example, it is recommended that agents with a short plasma half-life be administered multiple times per day. However, to date, several randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have shown n…

Brachytherapy as a monotherapy treatment is highly effective for localized prostate cancer, traditionally being delivered to the whole prostate gland. Lately, low dose rate (LDR) brachytherapy has been increasingly replaced by high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy treatment schemes.…

This study is aimed to assess the anti-infective efficacy of D-PLEX over a period of 3 months post operation as well as the safety over a period of 6 months, by preventing sternal infection post cardiac surgery in patients above the age of 18, including high risk patients for inf…

This study involves participants with recurrent glioblastoma brain tumors (GBM). This means that a participant's brain tumor has either returned after being treated by a previous therapy, or has continued to progress despite being treated. The purpose of this study is to provide…
