| NCT00126503 ↗ | Sorafenib Tosylate and Bevacizumab in Treating Patients With Advanced Kidney Cancer | Completed | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | Phase 1/Phase 2 | 2005-05-01 | This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of sorafenib tosylate and bevacizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with advanced kidney cancer. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth by targeting certain cells. Bevacizumab and sorafenib tosylate may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib tosylate together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells. |
| NCT00182091 ↗ | Effects of Growth Hormone Administration on Cardiovascular Risk in Cured Acromegalics With Growth Hormone Deficiency | Completed | Massachusetts General Hospital | N/A | 2004-08-01 | The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effects of growth hormone (GH) replacement in men and women with a history of acromegaly and who are now growth hormone deficient. We will compare them to persons with a history of acromegaly who have normal GH levels. Acromegaly results when an area in the brain, called the pituitary, produces too much growth hormone. When an individual is cured of acromegaly, the growth hormone levels may be normal or low (that is GH deficiency). Growth hormone deficiency means the body no longer produces as much growth hormone because the pituitary/hypothalamic region was damaged by a tumor or by treatment received. We will study the effects of growth hormone replacement on the health of the heart and blood vessels of GH deficient persons by looking to see if this therapy: 1. has effects on cardiovascular risk markers (special blood tests which indicate how healthy your heart and arteries are) 2. affects the stiffness of the arteries 3. affects your heart rate and the capacity of your heart to respond to changes in body position 4. has different effects depending on whether you are taking estrogen / testosterone. We will assess these measures of health on one occasion in persons with cured acromegaly and normal GH levels and in persons with cured acromegaly who have GH deficiency and a contraindication to receiving GH. GH deficient individuals with no contraindication to receiving GH, will participate in the study for 12 months. Individuals with normal GH levels, or who are GH deficient and have a contraindication to receiving GH, will be asked to return for one more visit (without any interventions). |
| NCT00223704 ↗ | Bradykinin Receptor Antagonism During Cardiopulmonary Bypass | Completed | Vanderbilt University | Phase 2/Phase 3 | 2006-05-01 | Each year over a million patients worldwide undergo cardiac surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). CPB is associated with significant morbidity including the transfusion of allogenic blood products, inflammation and hemodynamic instability. In fact, approximately 20% of all blood products transfused are associated with coronary artery bypass grafting procedures. Transfusion of allogenic blood products is associated with well-documented morbidity and increased mortality after cardiac surgery. Enhanced fibrinolysis contributes to increased blood product transfusion in the perioperative period. The current proposal tests the central hypothesis that endogenous bradykinin contributes to the hemodynamic, fibrinolytic and inflammatory response to CPB and that bradykinin receptor antagonism will reduce hypotension, inflammation and transfusion requirements. In SPECIFIC AIM 1 we will test the hypothesis that the fibrinolytic and inflammatory response to CPB differ during ACE inhibition and angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonism. In SPECIFIC AIM 2 we will test the hypothesis that bradykinin B2 receptor antagonism attenuates the hemodynamic, fibrinolytic, and inflammatory response to CPB. In SPECIFIC AIM 3 we will test the hypothesis that bradykinin B2 receptor antagonism reduces the risk of allogenic blood product transfusion in patients undergoing CPB. These studies promise to provide important information regarding the effects of drugs that interrupt the RAS and generate new strategies to reduce morbidity in patients undergoing CPB. |
