    Drug Therapy for the Treatment of Upper Abdominal Pain

    Location:

    Jacksonville, FL Scottsdale and Phoenix, AZ Rochester, MN

    Trial status:

    Open for Enrollment

    Why is this study being done?

    This study is being done for people with upper abdominal discomfort or pain, early fullness after eating, nausea and/or upper abdominal bloating.

    We propose to investigate whether antidepressant medications are efficacious in functional dyspepsia. The prescription of antidepressants to treat functional dyspepsia is based on three propositions. First, antidepressants could reduce the severity of co-morbid psychological symptoms, especially anxiety and depression. Second, antidepressants have central analgesic actions. Thirdly, antidepressants have been shown to have local pharmacological actions on the gut, and may specifically alter gastric emptying and fundic relaxation based on preliminary data, but the relevance of such perturbations to treatment outcome is not established.

    Interstitial Brachytherapy With or Without External-Beam Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer

    Location:

    Jacksonville, FL Rochester, MN

    Trial status:

    Open for Enrollment

    Why is this study being done?

    OBJECTIVES:

    - Compare the 5-year freedom from progression in patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer treated with interstitial brachytherapy with or without external beam radiotherapy (EBRT).

    - Compare biochemical (i.e., prostate-specific antigen) failure, biochemical failure by the Phoenix definition, disease-specific survival, local progression, and distant metastases in patients treated with these regimens.

    - Compare morbidity and quality of life of patients treated with these regimens.

    - Determine the feasibility of collecting Medicare data in a large RTOG prostate cancer clinical trial for cost effectiveness and cost utility analysis of combined treatment with interstitial brachytherapy and EBRT.

    - Prospectively collect diagnostic biopsy samples from these patients for future biomarker analyses.

    OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to disease stage (T1c vs T2a or T2b), Gleason score (≤ 6 vs 7), prostate-specific antigen (< 10 ng/mL vs 10-20 ng/mL), and prior neoadjuvant hormonal therapy (yes vs no). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

    - Arm I: Patients undergo external beam radiotherapy 5 days a week for 5 weeks. Within 2-4 weeks of radiotherapy, patients undergo interstitial brachytherapy with iodine I 125 or palladium Pd 103 seeds.

    - Arm II: Patients undergo interstitial brachytherapy only, as in arm I. Quality of life is assessed at baseline, at 4, 12, and 24 months, and then annually for 3 years.

    After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at 3-5 weeks, at 4, 6, 9, and 12 months, every 6 months for 4 years, and then annually thereafter.

    Trial status:

    Open for Enrollment

    Why is this study being done?

    PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the CR + CRc + CRi rate of carboplatin and topotecan; flavopiridol, mitoxantrone and cytosine arabinoside and sirolimus, mitoxantrone, etoposide and cytosine arabinoside in adult patients with refractory or relapsed AML. II. To determine the rate of treatment failure of these regimens. III. To determine the incidence and severity of toxicities of these regimens. IV. To analyze the predictive value of blast cell properties that have been suggested to determine response. (Correlative laboratory studies) V. To determine whether pretreatment levels of Bcl-2 or, alternatively, whether a therapy-induced change in topoisomerase I levels correlates with response to this regimen. (Correlative laboratory studies) VI. To assess the impact of clonal evolution by comparing cytogenetic abnormalities at the time of relapse with those at initial diagnosis and correlating these abnormalities and changes with response to the treatment regimens in this protocol. (Cytogenetic and FISH Studies) VII. Panel FISH studies for common AML rearrangements will be performed on relapse AML specimens to determine the presence of these recurrent AML abnormalities and to evaluate for subtle additional abnormalities consistent with clonal evolution in these relapse specimens. (Cytogenetic and FISH Studies) OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, randomized study. Patients are stratified according to disease status (relapse ≤ 6 months after achieving first complete remission [CR] vs relapse between 6-12 months after achieving first CR vs refractory to ≤ 2 courses of initial conventional induction chemotherapy vs refractory to ≤ 1 course of first reinduction chemotherapy). Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 treatment arms. Induction therapy: ARM I: Patients receive carboplatin and topotecan hydrochloride IV continuously over 24 hours on days 1-5. ARM II: Patients receive alvocidib IV over 4.5 hours once daily on days 1-3, cytarabine IV continuously over 72 hours on days 6-8, and mitoxantrone hydrochloride IV over 1-2 hours on day 9. ARM III: Patients receive oral sirolimus once daily on days 2-9, mitoxantrone hydrochloride IV over 15 minutes once daily, etoposide IV over 1 hour once daily, and cytarabine IV over 3 hours once daily on days 4-8 or 5-9. After completion of induction therapy, patients in all arms undergo bone marrow aspirate and biopsy. Patients with persistent leukemia (i.e., leukemic blasts ≥ 10%) are removed from study and are offered alternative therapy at the discretion of the investigator. Patients who achieve CR proceed to consolidation therapy or receive alternative therapy at the discretion of the investigator. CONSOLIDATION THERAPY: Beginning within 2-6 weeks after documentation of CR, patients may receive up to 2 additional courses of the same treatment they received during induction therapy. Courses repeat every 4-10 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study therapy, patients are followed periodically for up to 3 years.

  9. Simvastatin in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Haemorrhage (STASH) a Multicentre Randomised Controlled Clinical Trial Jacksonville, FL View Summary

    Simvastatin in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Haemorrhage (STASH) a Multicentre Randomised Controlled Clinical Trial

    Location:

    Jacksonville, FL

    Trial status:

    Open for Enrollment

    Why is this study being done?

    Intracranial bleeding from ruptured blood vessels (called a subarachnoid haemorrhage -SAH) affects 7000 patients each year in the UK and is a source of considerable death and disability, even in young adults. Recent observations indicate that these bleeds can cause reduced cerebral blood flow which leads to a bad outcome. High rates of death and disability occur, and are particularly prevalent when low cerebral blood flow results in stroke. Prevention of cerebral artery spasm and improvement in blood vessel reflexes are the target of modern therapy. Candidate drugs include statins which have an impeccable safety record and multiple potential beneficial actions (improve cerebral blood flow, reduce inflammatory processes, reduce adverse blood coagulation) following SAH. The investigators plan to use a statin, Simvastatin (40 mg) to improve cerebral blood flow and reduce inflammation. We have already completed a phase 11 study (n=80) which demonstrated potential benefits for acute statin therapy following SAH, and the investigators now wish to conduct a multi-centre phase 111 study to explore any potential clinical benefits in a larger population (n=1600). The purpose is to see whether the positive effects of statins seen in our phase II study translate into clinical benefits - both short term (e.g. reduced need for intensive care) and long term (outcome and wellbeing at 6 months).
