A listing of District of Columbia, District of Columbia clinical trials actively recruiting patient volunteers.
This multicenter prospective study seeks to determine if daratumumab given, prior to HLA-identical sibling donor transplantation using alemtuzumab, low dose total-body irradiation, and sirolimus, can prevent pure red blood cell aplasia with an acceptable safety profile in patients with anti-donor red blood cell antibodies, achieving an event-free survival similar to …
Background Cisplatin is used to treat head and neck cancer. People who take this drug are at risk for hearing loss. Atorvastatin is a drug used to treat high cholesterol. It might reduce the risk of cisplatin-induced hearing loss. Objective To find out if atorvastatin reduces hearing loss in people …
Background Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a disease caused by disrupted immune function. People with HLH are prone to fevers and illnesses, which can be fatal. Some people develop a genetic form of this disease (pHLH), but researchers do not understand why some other people develop a nongenetic form (sHLH). They …
Background Small cell carcinoma of the bladder (SCCB) and other high-grade neuroendocrine tumors (HGNET) of the urinary tract are rare but aggressive cancers. Average survival for people diagnosed with SCCB or HGNET is about 1 year. Lurbinectedin and avelumab are drugs that are approved to treat other cancers. Researchers want …
This study is a phase IV, pragmatic single-arm prospective, open label study in pediatric (1 years or older) and adult study participants with rare BRAF V600E mutation-positive unresectable or metastatic solid tumors for whom a decision has already been made to be treated with dabrafenib and trametinib, irrespective of the …
Background \- The blood-brain barrier separates the brain from the rest of the body. Epilepsy is a neurological disease that causes seizures. It can affect this barrier. Researchers think a contrast agent called mangafodipir might be better able to show areas of the brain that epilepsy affects. Objective \- To …
Background Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are rare cancers in the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, lungs, adrenal glands, and other areas of the body. Many of these cancers have a high risk of relapse and a low chance of survival. Better treatments are needed. Objective To test a new drug, ADCT-701, in people …
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of GIGA-564 and identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) level(s) of GIGA-564 in participants with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumor malignancies.
This phase II trial studies how well inotuzumab ozogamicin works in treating younger patients with B-lymphoblastic lymphoma or CD22 positive B acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Inotuzumab ozogamicin is a monoclonal antibody, called inotuzumab, linked to a toxic agent called …
Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited disorder of the blood. SCD causes red blood cells (RBCs) to die early. This can lead to a shortage of healthy cells. SCD and other blood disorders can be managed with drugs or cured with a bone marrow transplant. Researchers want to …
