Dexamethasone Treatment Options in Indiana

Randomized subjects will receive CC-5013 plus high-dose dexamethasone or placebo appearing identical to CC-5013 plus high-dose dexamethasone in 4-week cycles. Each subject will participate in a treatment phase and a follow-up phase. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to assess the concentration of Elotuzumab in Myeloma patients with very low kidney function including patients on dialysis. Read Less

The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose of carfilzomib given twice weekly in combination with cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone for patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. Read Less

This randomized phase III trial is studying different chemotherapy regimens given with or without radiation therapy to compare how well they work in treating children with newly diagnosed Hodgkin's disease. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving the drugs in different combinations may kill more cancer cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. It is not yet known if chemotherapy is more effective with or without additional chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy in treating Hodgkin's disease. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to determine if Thalidomide + Dexamethasone or DOXIL (doxorubicin HCl liposome injection) + Thalidomide + Dexamethasone is more effective in treating newly diagnosed patients with multiple myeloma. The number of patients whose multiple myeloma disappears for a period of time (complete Response) will be studied to make the determination of which treatment is more effective. Read Less

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage cancer cells. Giving combination chemotherapy together with radiation therapy may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well giving chemotherapy together with radiation therapy works in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has relapsed in the CNS and/or testes. Read Less

This randomized phase III trial is studying APF530 and dexamethasone to see how well they work compared with palonosetron and dexamethasone in preventing nausea and vomiting in patients receiving chemotherapy for cancer. Read Less

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug and giving them in different ways may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which regimen of combination chemotherapy is more effective for acute lymphoblastic leukemia PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare different regimens of combination chemotherapy in treating children who have newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Read Less

The trial will be performed to evaluate if BIBF 1120 in combination with standard pemetrexed therapy is more effective than placebo (inactive capsule) plus standard pemetrexed therapy in patients with stage IIIB, IV or recurrent NSCLC. Safety information about BIBF1120/pemetrexed will be obtained. Read Less

The primary study objective is to demonstrate the superiority of APF530 500 mg given subcutaneously (SC) compared with ondansetron 0.15 mg/kg given intravenously (IV) (up to a maximum of 16 mg) in the delayed-phase (\> 24-120 hours) complete response (CR) rate (defined as no emesis and no use of rescue medications) in subjects receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC) as defined by the 2011 ASCO CINV guidelines Read Less

RATIONALE: Thalidomide may stop the growth of cancer cells by stopping blood flow to the cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplant may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more cancer cells. Giving thalidomide before and after peripheral stem cell transplant may be effective in treating newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving thalidomide with chemotherapy and peripheral stem cell transplant work in treating patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. Read Less

This phase II trial studies how well carfilzomib works in treating patients with multiple myeloma in first relapse or refractory to first-line therapy. Carfilzomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Read Less
