767 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn more about how the study drug alpharadin (Radium-223) works in patients who have CPRC that has spread to the bone.
This study will evaluate baseline uptake on a FDG PET/CT scan in patients with breast cancer that has spread to the bones. A repeat FDG PET/CT scan will be done 4 weeks after the start of new breast cancer hormone treatment and again at 12 weeks after treatment start. The baseline uptake and change in uptake after the repeat scans will be compared to clinical long term outcomes such as time to progression and overall survival. In addition the uptake will be compared to the incidence of skeletal related events that are common occurrences in patients with cancer that has spread to the bones.
The main purpose of this study is to compare genetic markers present on tumor cells before and after chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to monitor fracture risk associated with bone tumors in cancer patients. Previous studies from our lab have suggested that it is possible to compute the mechanical strength of bones with tumors using computed tomography (CT) scans, which are like three-dimensional X-ray pictures of the affected bones. The next step in determining the usefulness of this type of strength analysis is to see if we can accurately predict who is at risk for bone fracture and which patients are at high risk of fractures. This non-invasive analysis may help physicians determine the best treatment to reduce the risk of an impending bone fracture in the future.
The purpose of this study is to assess the performance and safety of Biology-Guided Radiotherapy (BgRT) using the RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System (RMRS) via optimizing F18-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) dosing, assessing the performance of the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging subsystem for BgRT treatment planning and delivery, including its role as an interlock, and validating the dose delivery performance of the end-to-end BgRT workflow.
The goal of this clinical trial was to compare participants with first relapse or refractory Ewing's sarcoma when treated with investigational product (Vigil) in addition to the standard treatment of irinotecan and temozolomide compared to the standard treatment of irinotecan and temozolomide alone. The main question it aimed to answer is "Will participants who receive Vigil in addition to irinotecan and temozolomide have a prolonged time to progression and improved quality of life compared to the participants who receive irinotecan and temozolomide alone?".
This is a phase Ib/II study evaluating the safety and efficacy of zunsemetinib (ATI-450) with capecitabine in patients with hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative (HR+/HER2-) metastatic breast cancer (MBC).
Clinical studies, with a distinct focus on bone cancer, play a crucial role in evaluating the safety and effectiveness of novel treatments for this disease. These trials serve as instrumental means to determine whether new medications surpass conventional therapies, providing substantial evidence for their broader adoption. The primary objective is to meticulously scrutinize trial completion rates and voluntary withdrawals within this specific patient group.
This is a clinical trial studying intravenous infusions of allogeneic gamma delta T cells after receiving low dose radiotherapy in participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer or solid tumors with bone metastases to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combining immunotherapy with radiation therapy.
To determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of CycloSam®, Samarium-153-DOTMP (Sm-153-DOTMP), a radiopharmaceutical that delivers radiation to the bone when injected, given as a tandemly administered pair of doses to subjects with one or more solid tumor(s) in the bone or metastatic solid tumors to the bone that are visible on bone scan.
Patients with a biopsy-proven benign bone tumor for which standard of care is intralesional operative management will receive a weight-appropriate IV dose of indocyanine green (ICG, FDA-approved) the day prior to surgery during their standard pre-operative clinic visit. On the day of surgery, fluorescence images will be obtained using a non-invasive fluorescence camera.
This phase II trial studies the effect of Sn-117m-DTPA on bone pain in patients with prostate cancer that has spread to the bones. Sn-117m-DTPA is a radioactive therapeutic agent that localizes to bones when given to patients. Sn-117m-DTPA may help reduce bone pain in patients with prostate cancer that has spread to the bones.
The purpose of the study was to determine the safety and test the efficacy of the combination of radium-223 dichloride and pembrolizumab in patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with bone metastases who either had not received any systemic therapy for their advanced disease or had progressed on prior immunologic checkpoint blockade with antibodies against the programmed cell death protein-(ligand) 1 (PD-1/PD-L1). In this study researchers wanted to measure tumor shrinkage in response to treatment and how long that shrinkage lasted and gathered information on safety. Pembrolizumab is an immunologic checkpoint blocker that promotes an immune response against the tumor. Radium-223 dichloride is an alpha particle-emitting radioactive agent which kills cancer cells.
This phase I/II trial studies the best dose and side effects of olaparib and how well it works with radium Ra 223 dichloride in treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to the bone and other places in the body (metastatic). PARPs are proteins that help repair DNA mutations. PARP inhibitors, such as olaparib, can keep PARP from working, so tumor cells can't repair themselves, and they may stop growing. Radioactive drugs, such as radium Ra 223 dichloride, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. Giving olaparib and radium Ra 223 dichloride may help treat patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer.
This is a phase IIa, open label, single arm, and prospective study of hormone therapy-naïve men with oligometastatic prostate cancer to the bone. The study will test if treating the primary tumor sites and 5 or fewer sites of bone-only metastasis with external beam radiation with concomitant systemic Radium-223 will reduce the utilization of androgen deprivation therapy, improve QOL and improve OS over a the comparator cohort of SWOG intermittent ADT historic cohort.
Study 20140114 will continue to follow participants with GCTB who were treated in Study 20062004 and remained on the study at the completion of Study 20062004 for an additional 5 years on long-term safety follow up.
The purpose of the clinical study is to investigate whether the local delivery of bisphosphonate as a surgical adjuvant can decrease the chance of a giant cell tumor of bone coming back to the same location. The hypothesis is that the local administration of bisphosphonate will decrease the rate of the tumor returning compared to traditional aggressive surgical removal of the tumor.
The purpose of this study is to look at the amount of cancer cells in the blood of participants who are being treated with denosumab. The other purpose is to look at how long it takes for cancer to get worse when participants are being treated with denosumab. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the blood of patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) have been associated with shorter survival than when CTCs are absent, especially in patients whose cancer has spread to their bones. In this study, we want it see if denosumab (the study drug) will decrease the number of CTCs measured in patients with MBC and cancer that has spread to their bones. We also plan to get blood from participants to study other research markers of interest.
This clinical trial tests next generation sequencing (NGS) for the detection of precursor features of pre-myeloid cancers and bone marrow failure syndromes. NGS is a procedure that looks at relevant cancer associated genes and what they do. Finding genetic markers for pre-malignant conditions may help identify patients who are at risk of pre-myeloid cancers and bone marrow failure syndromes and lead to earlier intervention.
This clinical trial studies how well supervised exercise works in improving physical fitness before surgery in patients with bone cancer that can be removed by surgery. Supervised exercise may provide better short-term physical fitness in patients with bone cancer.
Newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer subjects with bone metastases will be accrued to this stratified randomized 2-arm Phase II trial. Subjects will be randomized 1:2 to ADT or ADT with Radium-223 dichloride respectively.
Background: Cancer-induced bone pain (CIBP) is common in people with cancer. Bone cancer can also lead to anxiety, depression, and reduced mobility and quality of life. Researchers believe a research drug called resiniferatoxin (RTX) may be able to help. Objective: To learn whether RTX is safe and can reduce cancer induced bone pain. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with CIBP that is not relieved by standard treatments Design: Participants will have up to 6 outpatient visits over about 7 months. These will include: Medical history Physical exam Blood and urine tests. Thermal testing: a disk placed on the skin to test ability to sense temperature in and around the area of pain Chest x-ray EKG: stickers are placed on the chest to measure heart signals ECG: measures electrical activity of the heart Participants will have 1 inpatient visit lasting 2-4 days. This will include: Catheter inserted into a vein in the arm. They are given anesthesia, sedation, and x-ray contrast. A needle is passed through the skin of the back to inject the RTX. Participants will keep a log of the pain medications they take after surgery. Participants will be called 1 week and 2, 3, and 4 months after the injection. Participants will be mailed surveys and questionnaires to complete 2, 3, and 4 months after the injection.
In this study patient's will receive the medicine Xofigo which is a radioactive drug that is FDA approved to treat prostate cancer that has spread to the bones. Xofigo has not previously been tested to treat lung cancer that has spread to the bones. Your doctors are studying the effects, good and bad, of Xofigo when used to treat lung cancer that has spread to the bones.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of daily subcutaneous administration of 5 μg/kg tbo-filgrastim in infants, children and adolescents with solid tumors without bone marrow involvement.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if denosumab in combination with a hormonal drug can help lower the number of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with breast cancer that has spread to the bone. The safety of this combination will also be studied. This is an investigational study. Denosumab is FDA approved and commercially available to prevent bone-related events caused by breast cancer that has spread to the bone. Using denosumab to lower CTCs in patients with breast cancer that has spread to the bone is investigational. You may have the option of continuing denosumab after the study ends. Up to 35 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.
Eligible subjects must have completed 6 doses of treatment of radium-223 dichloride and experienced no radium-223 dichloride-related SAEs (serious adverse events) or CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) Grade 3 or 4 adverse event during or after the initial course of radium-223 dichloride that led to the discontinuation of treatment. 40 Subjects will be enrolled and will receive up to 6 doses of radium-223 dichloride 50 kBq/kg IV every 4 weeks. The subject will be evaluated for AEs (adverse events) and laboratory tests at each visit every 4 weeks, prior to receiving radium-223 dichloride. After the end of treatment visit the subjects will enter the active follow up period. Related AEs and SAEs and Lab tests will be evaluated at each visit every 4 weeks for the first 12 weeks, then every 12 weeks for up to 2 years after the last dose of radium-223 dichloride. After the 2 years of active follow-up, subjects will enter the long-term follow-up period and will be followed via telephone follow-up at 6-month intervals for late toxicities and survival up to 7 years after the last dose of radium-223 dichloride or until death. Joint safety reviews will regularly take place to oversee safety of the subjects conducted at regular intervals. An interim analysis of the safety data will be conducted during the study.
The purpose of this enhanced surveillance study ("ESS") is to collect information regarding chronic adverse events that are possibly related to the ExAblate® System ("ExAblate") that are received by InSightec ("InSightec") following PMA approval. This study will examine adverse events reported in patients undergoing the device procedure for the first two years of commercial experience. Other relevant data may be collected as well.
