Dexamethasone Treatment Options in Memphis, TN

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

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of ISV-502 compared to AzaSite® alone, Dexamethasone alone, and vehicle in the treatment of subjects with Non-bacterial Blepharitis. Read Less

This is a prospective, comparative, open-label, single-center, randomized, investigator-sponsored clinical study and seeks to investigate clinical outcomes with standard of care and high dose DEXTENZA treatment compared to standard of care topical dexamethasone in patients undergoing trabeculectomy, trabeculectomy Ex-PRESS, Xen Gel stent, and Ahmed Valve surgery. Patients will be followed through 6 months. After screening a given patient for inclusion and exclusion criteria, and gaining informed consent, eyes of n=30 patients will be randomized to one of the following two groups (n=15per group) and followed from Baseline through Month 6.

The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of OTX-DP as a dexamethasone ophthalmic insert when placed in the canaliculus of the eyelid for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad, of a standard chemotherapy regimen for AML that includes the drugs daunorubicin and cytarabine combined with or without midostaurin (also known as PKC412), to find out which is better. This research is being done because it is unknown whether the addition of midostaurin to chemotherapy treatment is better than chemotherapy treatment alone. Midostaurin has been tested in over 400 patients and is being studied in a number of illnesses, including AML, colon cancer, and lung cancer. Midostaurin blocks an enzyme, produced by a gene known as FLT3, that may have a role in the survival and growth of AML cells. Not all leukemia cells will have the abnormal FLT3 gene. This study will focus only on patients with leukemia cells with the abnormal FLT3 gene. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to look at subjects who receive Lenalidomide, Dexamethasone, and Elotuzumab and determine if they will have lower surface CS1 expression on malignant plasma cells at the time of progression than those who receive Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone without Elotuzumab Read Less

Retrospective study to provide clinical outcomes with DEXYCU (dexamethasone intraocular suspension) 9%. Read Less

The purpose of the study is to assess the safety, tolerability and activity of a once-weekly regimen of carfilzomib in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone for the treatment of multiple myeloma. Read Less

This is a pilot study using decitabine and vorinostat before and during chemotherapy with vincristine, dexamethasone, mitoxantrone, and peg-asparaginase in pediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Read Less

The primary objective is to estimate the overall event-free survival of children at least one year of age at diagnosis who are treated with risk-directed therapy and to monitor the molecular remission induction rate. Read Less

Leukemia cells grow and divide fast and out of control. In normal cells, certain proteins called CDK4 and CDK6 control cell growth. The study drug called palbociclib works by blocking the CDK4 and CDK6 proteins. Palbociclib has been shown to kill leukemia cells in the laboratory and in animal studies. Palbociclib will be added to other chemotherapy drugs, such as dexamethasone, that are known to be effective in treating childhood ALL. This study will be done in two parts: Part 1: Dose Escalation and Part 2: Dose Expansion. The goal of Part 1 of the study is to find the highest tolerable combination of palbociclib and chemotherapy that the investigators can give to patients with leukemia. Once those doses are determined, the investigators will enroll patients on Part 2: Dose Expansion. This phase will enroll additional patients that receive the highest tolerated dose of palbociclib as determined in part 1, in order to better understand the side effects and how effective this treatment approach is. With this research study, the investigators hope to meet the following goals: * To find the highest tolerable dose of palbociclib in combination with chemotherapy that can be given without causing severe side effects; * To learn what kind of side effects palbociclib in combination with chemotherapy may have; and * To learn more about the biology effects of palbociclib on the cells in the participant's body. Up to 40 children, adolescents and young adults will participate in both parts of this study at St. Jude only. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of Lenalidomide plus low dose dexamethasone to that of the combination of melphalan, prednisone and thalidomide. Read Less
