Pomalidomide With Melphalan and Dexamethasone for Untreated Systemic AL Amyloidosis
Terminated
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of pomalidomide that can be given in combination with melphalan and dexamethasone that can be given to patients with AL amyloidosis. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied. Pomalidomide is designed to change the body's immune system. It may also interfere with the development of tiny blood vessels that help support tumor growth. This may decrease the growth of cancer cells. Melphalan is designed to... Read More

A Study of Aflibercept Versus Placebo in Patients With Second-Line Docetaxel for Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer
Completed
The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate overall survival improvement for aflibercept + docetaxel compared to docetaxel + placebo as second line treatment for participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The secondary objectives were to compare other efficacy parameters, to assess the overall safety of the two treatment arms, to assess the pharmacokinetics of intravenous (IV) aflibercept in this participant population and to determine immunog...

Iontophoresis Delivery of Dexamethasone Phosphate for Non-infectious, Non-necrotizing Anterior Scleritis, Phase 1 Dose-varying Study
Completed
This is an initial clinical trial evaluating whether different doses of iontophoresis for delivery of dexamethasone phosphate can be tolerated by eyes of patients with non-infections, non-necrotizing scleritis. A secondary goal is to get preliminary information about whether the treatment is likely to be an effective treatment for scleritis. If the results are favorable, further trials evaluating the treatment may be pursued. Funding sources: FDA OOPD, Eyegate Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Ph3 Safety/Efficacy Study of Rolapitant for the Prevention of CINV in Subjects Receiving Highly Emetogenic Chemotherapy
Completed
This is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, active-controlled study of rolapitant in subjects receiving HEC. Rolapitant or placebo will be administered prior to initiation of chemotherapy on Day 1 with granisetron and dexamethasone. Subjects will record all events of emesis and use of rescue medication for established nausea and/or vomiting, and will indicate the severity of nausea they experienced in each of the previous 24 hours in the Nausea and Vomiting (NV) Sub...

Eclampsia and Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES):
Terminated
This is a double blinded, placebo-controlled trial to determine if IV dexamethasone more quickly than placebo assists resolution of Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES) encountered in eclamptic patients. All patients regardless of assignment to placebo or steroid will receive standard therapy to include magnesium sulfate, blood pressure medications and diuretics. We hypothesize that the addition of dexamethasone to standard therapy will accelerate CNS recovery more quickly than st... Read More

Fosaprepitant + 5HT3 Receptor Antagonists + Dexamethasone in Germ Cell Tumors
Completed
The hypothesis is that the substitution of multi-day oral aprepitant with (intravenous) IV fosaprepitant, in combination with a 5-HT3 receptor antagonists (5HT3RA) + dexamethasone will provide comparable protection from 5 day cisplatin chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting, compared to the results of our prior study of aprepitant. This study will be the first clinical trial evaluating fosaprepitant in patients receiving multi-day cisplatin. This will be a single arm, phase II study. The inves... Read More

Low-Dose Melphalan and Dexamethasone Compared With High-Dose Melphalan Followed By Autologous Stem Cell Transplant in Treating Patients With Primary Systemic Amyloidosis
Completed
RATIONALE: 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. Having an autologous stem cell transplant to replace the blood-forming cells destroyed by chemotherapy, allows higher doses of chemotherapy to be given so that more plasma cells are killed. By reducing the number of plasma cells, the disease may progress more slowly. It is not yet known whether combin... Read More
