A Phase 3 Study of Siltuximab or Placebo in Combination With Velcade and Dexamethasone in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma
Withdrawn
The purpose of this study is to determine if there is an improvement in progression-free survival (length of time during and after treatment in which a patient is living with a disease that does not get worse) when siltuximab is added to VELCADE and dexamethasone in subjects with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Intravenous And Oral Casopitant (GW679769) For The Prevention Of Chemotherapy Induced Nausea And Vomiting
Completed
This is a Phase III trial designed to demonstrate that casopitant (GW679769) plus dexamethasone and ondansetron is more effective in the prevention of vomiting than dexamethasone and ondansetron alone following the administration of moderately emetogenic chemotherapy.

A Multicentre, Single-arm, Open-label Safety Study of Lenalidomide Plus Dexamethasone in Previously Treated Subjects With Multiple Myeloma
Completed
This is a multi-centre, single-arm treatment study combining lenalidomide plus high dose dexamethasone. Subjects who qualify for participation will receive lenalidomide plus high dose dexamethasone in 4 week cycles. Subjects will be seen every 2 weeks for the first 3 cycles of therapy and then every 4 weeks after the third cycle until disease progression is documented, study drug is discontinued for any reason or lenalidomide becomes commercially available for this indication.

An Open-Label Study to Assess the Effect of CYP3A4 Induction on the Pharmacokinetics of VELCADE (Bortezomib)
Completed
The primary purpose of this Phase I study is to evaluate the effect of the co-administration of CYP3A4 inducers on the pharmacokinetics profile of VELCADE (bortezomib). Rifampicin will be used to assess the effect of a strong CYP3A4 inducer and dexamethasone to assess the effect of a relatively weak inducer. This study is also to evaluate the impact of CYP3A4 inducers on the pharmacodynamics (PD) of VELCADE and the safety profile of VELCADE.

Determinants of Corticosteroid Insensitivity in Smokers With Asthma
Completed
Smokers with asthma display a relative insensitivity to inhaled and oral corticosteroids. The causes of this phenomenon are currently unknown. The investigators will perform a number of blood \& breathing tests to try to discover the cause/s behind this phenomenon with the aim of producing leads for further investigation and possible new treatments for smokers with asthma.
