Dexamethasone Treatment Options in Florida

The study had the following primary objectives: * Phase 1: to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of once-weekly (QW) carfilzomib and dexamethasone for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who have received 1 to 3 prior therapies * Phase 2: to estimate the overall response rate (ORR) for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who received 1 to 3 prior therapies treated with carfilzomib and dexamethasone QW at the MTD established in phase 1.

The primary objective was to compare progression-free survival in adults with relapsed multiple myeloma who are receiving CRd vs participants receiving Rd in a randomized multicenter setting. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to determine whether the addition of Elotuzumab to Lenalidomide/low-dose Dexamethasone will increase the progression free survival (PFS) Read Less

ACTT-4 will evaluate the combination of baricitinib and remdesivir compared to dexamethasone and remdesivir. Subjects will be assessed daily while hospitalized. If the subjects are discharged from the hospital, they will have a study visit at Days 15, 22, and 29. For discharged subjects, it is preferred that the Day 15 and 29 visits are in person to obtain safety laboratory tests, oropharyngeal (OP) swabs, plasma (Day 29), and serum for secondary research as well as clinical outcome data. However, if infection control or other restrictions limit the ability of the subject to return to the clinic, these visits may be conducted by phone, and only clinical data will be obtained. The Day 22 visit does not have laboratory tests or collection of samples and is conducted by phone. The primary objective is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of baricitinib + remdesivir versus dexamethasone + remdesivir as assessed by the mechanical ventilation free survival by Day 29. Read Less

This is a Phase Ib study to evaluate the safety and preliminary anti-tumor activity of pembrolizumab in combination with pemetrexed with or without oxaliplatin in patients with chemo-refractory microsatellite stable (MSS) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) without any further standard treatment options.

RATIONALE: Androgens can cause the growth of prostate cancer cells. Hormone therapy using drugs, such as leuprolide, goserelin, flutamide, or bicalutamide, may fight prostate cancer by lowering the amount of androgens the body makes. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and prednisone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet known whether giving hormone therapy and radiation therapy together with chemotherapy is more effective than giving hormone therapy together with radiation therapy in treating prostate cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying hormone therapy and radiation therapy followed by docetaxel and prednisone to see how well it works compared to hormone therapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with localized prostate cancer.

This prospective, open-label, single-center, randomized, investigator-sponsored clinical study seeks to compare patient-reported and clinical outcomes with DEXTENZA versus topical steroid or antihistamine treatment in patients with allergic conjunctivitis Read Less

Despite the recent introduction of novel anti-multiple myeloma (MM) agents, high risk MM remains with poor prognosis and a therapeutic challenge. Elotuzumab (ELO) is a humanized monoclonal antibody that recognizes CS1/CD139, a molecule highly expressed in MM cells. The ELO (10 mg/kg), lenalidomide (LEN) and dexamethasone (DEX) combination achieves high overall response rates (ORR) and long progression-free survival (PFS) for patients with relapsed/refractory disease (RR) MM and those with impaired renal function. However, its efficacy for MM patients with high risk characteristics is still unknown. Pomalidomide (POM) is a recently approved immunomodulatory agent (IMiD) that produces response rates for high-risk RRMM patients when used in combination with DEX and other agents, including the proteasome inhibitor (PI) bortezomib (BTZ). POM has also demonstrated activity for LEN refractory patients. Carfilzomib (CFZ) is a potent second generation PI that has shown to be efficacious for IMiD and BTZ refractory patients as well as high risk patients carrying cytogenetic abnormalities. In this study, we propose to evaluate efficacy and safety of ELO in combination with POM, DEX and CFZ for high-risk RRMM patients. Read Less

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of AR-1105 (dexamethasone implant) for the treatment of macular edema (ME) due to retinal vein occlusion (RVO). A more durable intravitreal implant containing a low dose of dexamethasone may result in less frequent retreatments, and potentially lower the incidence of steroid-related side effects without compromising efficacy.

This Phase 2/3 trial evaluates four treatment strategies for non-critically ill hospitalized participants (not requiring ICU admission and/or mechanical ventilation) with SARS CoV-2 infection, in which participants will receive NA-831 or Atazanavir with or without Dexamethasone. Read Less

This randomized phase III trial is studying melphalan and dexamethasone to see how well they work with or without bortezomib in treating patients with previously untreated systemic amyloidosis. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as melphalan and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of plasma cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Bortezomib may stop the growth of plasma cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether giving melphalan together with dexamethasone is more effective with or without bortezomib in treating systemic amyloidosis. Read Less
