L-citrulline Injection in Patients Aged 6-21 Years Old With Sickle Cell Disease Presenting With Vaso-Occlusive Crisis (VOC)
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to determine if intravenous L-citrulline can abrogate an active vaso-occlusive crisis in sickle cell disease, resulting in decreased pain, reduction or elimination of opiate usage, and reduction or elimination of hospital admission. The applicant is developing intravenous L-citrulline (Turnobi™) for treatment of sickle cell disease (SCD). The current development program targets treatment of sickle cell-associated vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) specifically. The aim of P... Read More

Comparing the Outcome of Immunotherapy-Based Drug Combination Therapy With or Without Surgery to Remove the Kidney in Metastatic Kidney Cancer, the PROBE Trial
Recruiting
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding surgery to a standard of care immunotherapy-based drug combination versus a standard of care immunotherapy-based drug combination alone in treating patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, ipilimumab, pembrolizumab, and avelumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow an...

Standard Systemic Therapy With or Without Definitive Treatment in Treating Participants With Metastatic Prostate Cancer
Recruiting
This phase III trial studies how well standard systemic therapy with or without definitive treatment (prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy) works in treating participants with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Addition of prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy to standard systemic therapy for prostate cancer may lower the chance of the cancer growing or spreading.
