Study Objectives
Oncological home-hospitalization might be a patient-centred, cost-effective approach to deal wiht the current challenges in cancer healthcare.
The primary aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate patient-reported quality of life of patients receiving (partial) oncological home-hospitalization and to compare this outcome with patients receiving standard ambulatory hospital care.
Secondary endpoints that will be evaluated and compared between both randomized groups are: Quality of life related endpoints (i.e. distress, depression \& anxiety and general health-related quality of life); Costs; Safety; patients' reported Satisfaction \& Preferences and Efficiency for the hospital day care unit.

Study Objectives
This randomized phase II trial studies how well cabozantinib-s-malate works compared with temozolomide or dacarbazine in treating patients with melanoma of the eye (ocular melanoma) that has spread to other parts of the body and cannot be removed by surgery. Cabozantinib-s-malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide and dacarbazine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether cabozantinib-s-malate works better than temozolomide or dacarbazine in treating patients with melanoma of the eye.

Study Objectives
This phase III trial is studying combination chemotherapy to see how well it works in treating young patients with newly diagnosed acute promyelocytic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells.
Conditions: Childhood Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia With PML-RARA, Myeloid Neoplasm
Intervention / Treatment:
DRUG: Arsenic Trioxide, DRUG: Cytarabine, OTHER: Diagnostic Laboratory Biomarker Analysis, DRUG: Idarubicin, DRUG: Mercaptopurine, DRUG: Methotrexate, DRUG: Mitoxantrone Hydrochloride, DRUG: Tretinoin

Phase: PHASE3
Primary Purpose: TREATMENT
Allocation: NON_RANDOMIZED
Interventional Model: PARALLEL
Masking: NONE | Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients must be newly diagnosed with a clinical diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia initially by morphology (bone marrow or peripheral blood); bone marrow is highly preferred but in cases where marrow cannot be obtained at diagnosis, peripheral blood will be accepted; APL is considered a hematological emergency and treatment should be initiated as quickly as possible without waiting for molecular or cytogenetic/fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) confirmation; for patients who are unable to begin receiving ATRA in a timely manner following a presumed diagnosis of APL, consideration should be given to initiating ATRA and proceeding with treatment outside of the AAML0631 protocol; if the RQ-PCR results are known at the time of study enrollment, the patient must demonstrate PML-RARA and/or RARA-PML transcripts by RQ-PCR to be eligible; patients without evidence of APL by bone marrow or peripheral blood morphology but with isolated myeloid sarcoma (myeloblastoma; chloroma, including leukemia cutis) are eligible provided that the t(15;17) translocation is documented on either marrow or tumor tissue by cytogenetics, FISH, or PCR prior to study enrollment; in this situation, touch preps from the tumor site can be evaluated by FISH with PML-RARA probes; NOTE: A lumbar puncture is not required to be enrolled on study; if the diagnosis of APL is known or suspected, extreme caution must be exercised in performing a lumbar puncture during active coagulopathy; in addition a computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) should be considered to rule out the possibility of an associated chloroma if central nervous system (CNS) disease is suspected or proven; if CNS disease is documented, patients are still eligible
* No minimal performance status criteria
* The patient must not have received systemic definitive treatment for APL or other suspected leukemia, including cytotoxic chemotherapy, retinoids, or arsenic; prior therapy with corticosteroids, hydroxyurea, or leukopheresis will not exclude the patient; if a patient received intrathecal cytarabine prior to the diagnosis of APL being known, the patient will still be eligible as long as they meet all other eligibility requirements
Exclusion Criteria:
* Pregnant women or nursing mothers are excluded; treatment under this protocol would expose an unborn child to significant risks; patients should not be pregnant or plan to become pregnant while on treatment; women and men of reproductive potential should agree to use an effective means of birth control; there is an extremely high risk of fetal malformation if pregnancy occurs while on ATRA in any amount even for short periods
* Patients with a pre-existing prolonged QT Syndrome will not be eligible for this protocol due to the use of arsenic trioxide which can prolong the QT interval | NCT_ID

* Pregnant or nursing women may not participate on this study because OSI-774 is an epidermal growth factor inhibitor with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects based on the data suggesting that EGFR expression is important for normal organ development; there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with OSI-774; women/men of reproductive potential may not participate unless they have agreed to use an effective contraceptive method
* No other prior malignancy is allowed except for the following: adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, in situ cervical cancer, adequately treated stage I or II cancer from which the patient is currently in complete remission, or any other cancer from which the patient has been disease-free for 5 years
* If day 14, 21, 28 or 42 falls on a weekend or holiday, the limit may be extended to the next working day; in calculating days of tests and measurements, the day a test or measurement is done is considered to be day 0; therefore, if a test is done on a Monday, the Monday two weeks later would be considered day 14; this allows for efficient patient scheduling without exceeding the guidelines
* All patients must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and must sign and give written informed consent in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines
* At the time of patient registration, the treating institution's name and ID number must be provided to the Data Operations Center in Seattle in order to ensure that the current (within 365 days) date of institutional review board approval for this study has been entered into the data base | NCT_ID

Study Objectives
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well white blood cells taken from person's own (autologous) cluster of differentiation (CD)8+ antigen-specific T cells, cyclophosphamide, aldesleukin, and ipilimumab work in treating patients with melanoma that has spread to another place in the body. Autologous CD8+ antigen-specific T cells are white blood cells that are designed in the laboratory to find melanoma cells and may kill them. Biological therapies, such as aldesleukin, use substances made from living organisms that may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving autologous CD8+ antigen-specific T cells with cyclophosphamide, aldesleukin, and ipilimumab may be an effective treatment for patients with metastatic melanoma.

Study Objectives
The primary objective of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of unesbulin in combination with dacarbazine for the treatment of advanced LMS and determine the overall safety profile of unesbulin in combination with dacarbazine.
This study will employ the time-to-event continual reassessment method (TITE-CRM) for dose finding. Treatment will be initiated at dose level 2 (DL2) (Dacarbazine 1000 milligrams per square meter \[mg/m\^2\] intravenously \[IV\] every 21 days in combination with unesbulin 200 milligrams \[mg\] orally twice weekly) for the first participant. This dose level represents the investigator's best assessment of the MTD based on available toxicity data for both agents. For subsequent participants, the dose level at which treatment is initiated will be selected based on the TITE-CRM using the most up to date dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) information from all participants previously treated. To enroll additional participants at the RP2D, the study is amended to include an expansion cohort of up to 12 participants (some of whom could be ongoing participants who reconsent).
Treatment will continue for each participant until evidence of unacceptable toxicity, disease progression, or treatment discontinuation for another reason.

Study Objectives
Regorafenib is a novel oral multi-kinase inhibitor which targets angiogenic, stromal and oncogenic receptor tyrosine kinases. It is currently registered for GIST and mCRC. When regorafenib is co-administered with an acid suppressive agent, the intra-gastric pH increases, and as a result the equilibrium of ionized/non-ionized regorafenib may shift to the less soluble non-ionized form which reduces regorafenib bioavailability and exposure. Since proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are often used during regorafenib therapy, this drug-drug interaction (DDI) confronts pharmacists and oncologists with challenges in clinical practice. In this study the investigators will therefore evaluate the impact of PPI-induced intra-gastric pH elevation on regorafenib pharmacokinetics in patients with GIST and mCRC.

Study Objectives
Oral contraceptive therapy is routinely used for the treatment of menstrual disturbances of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
To date, the cardiovascular risk (CVR) of the oral contraceptives (OC) are known but no data are available on the CVR in PCOS patients treated with OC or physical exercise.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of OC to physical exercise on the CVR of PCOS women and show the hormonal and metabolic effects of these two different treatment.
We hypothesize that physical exercise has the same beneficial effects of OC therapy on hormonal and metabolic features of PCOS women with less cardiovascular consequences.

Study Objectives
Skin cancers and pre-cancerous growths (called actinic keratoses, "AKs"), that aren't melanomas, develop in patients with a kidney transplant at excessive rates. When these pre-cancerous AKs, and "non-melanoma" skin cancers occur in kidney transplant patients, they tend to be aggressive, and require frequent medical procedures, often surgery, for the removal of the skin cancers. If not removed adequately the pre-cancers can develop into skin cancers, and the skin cancers, if not removed, may spread, and even cause death. Reducing the occurrence and complications of these skin cancers and pre-cancers in kidney transplant patients with a safe, effective, well-tolerated treatment taken by mouth would be an important medical advance.
We are testing oral nicotinamide (NAM)-a B-vitamin compound-for that purpose. Approximately fifty kidney transplant patients who have had at least one non-melanoma skin cancer in the past, will be given randomized to receive NAM, 1 gram twice daily by mouth, or identical pills without NAM, and followed for 1 year to see if NAM treatment reduces the numbers of pre-cancerous AKs, and non-melanoma skin cancers they develop. Patients will be asked to come to the clinic for 3 follow up visits (every 4 months for up to 12 months). They will receive a full body skin exam by a dermatologist, have detailed counting of AKs and biopsies for any suspicious lesions as standard of care. Blood will also be drawn as well as a urine sample obtained at each visit for safety assessment and storage. We will also ask them to answer a series of questions about dietary patterns and intake of whole foods and supplements.

Study Objectives
The purpose of the study is to learn about the safety and effectiveness of treating follicular lymphoma with bendamustine and rituximab followed by radioimmunotherapy (RIT) using 90-yttrium (Y) ibritumomab tiuxetan.
The researchers will also test blood and bone marrow for the BCL2 gene-Jh that is a commonly found in people with follicular lymphoma (FL) and look at how the BCL2 gene-Jh responds to the study treatment.
Bendamustine is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) that has progressed during or within six months of treatment with rituximab or a rituximab-containing treatment regimen. Bendamustine is not approved by the FDA to treat follicular lymphoma.
Rituximab is approved by the FDA for the treatment of relapsed or refractory, low-grade or follicular, CD20-positive B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
90-yttrium (Y) ibritumomab tiuxetan is approved by the FDA for the treatment of relapsed or refractory, low-grade or follicular B-cell NHL, including rituximab refractory follicular NHL. It is also approved for the treatment of follicular NHL that is previously untreated with radioimmunotherapy and that achieved a partial or complete response to first-line chemotherapy.
Study participants will will receive bendamustine and rituximab for up to 16 weeks. If participants' cancer responds well to the treatment with bendamustine and rituximab, they will receive up to 12 weeks of radioimmunotherapy (RIT). After the RIT is complete, participants will be asked to return to the clinic every 3 months for a maximum of 10 years for follow-up visits.

* Diagnosis of MMM is acceptable if the following combinations are present
* The two necessary criteria plus any other two optional criteria when splenomegaly is present OR
* The two necessary criteria plus any other four optional criteria when splenomegaly is absent
* Patients may have had prior chemotherapy or radiation therapy including splenic irradiation; prior therapy with erythropoietin, GCSF or androgenic steroids is also permitted; there is no limit to number of prior regimens received; at least 4 weeks must have elapsed since prior chemo, radiation or other therapy

* Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
* Pregnant women are excluded from this study because STI-571 is an agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects; because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with STI-571, STI-571 should not be administered patients who are breastfeeding
* HIV-positive patients receiving combination anti-retroviral therapy are excluded from the study because of possible pharmacokinetic interactions with STI-571; appropriate studies will be undertaken in patients receiving combination anti-retroviral therapy when indicated
* Because warfarin is metabolized through the CYP450 system, and since gastrointestinal bleeding may occur with STI-571, no therapeutic anticoagulation with warfarin will be permitted in patients participating in this study; as an alternative, therapeutic anticoagulation may be accomplished using low-molecular weight heparin (e.g. Lovenox) or heparin | NCT_ID

Study Objectives
In this study it will be determined whether the rate of severe toxicity associated with fluoropyrimidine treatment (capecitabine or 5-fluorouracil) can be significantly diminished by individualized dosing of fluoropyrimidines based on upfront genotypic assessment of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency.
In addition to the genotyping, the DPD phenotype of all patients will be determined by measuring the baseline dihydrouracil/uracil (DHU/U) ratio, in order to investigate whether phenotype-guided treatment can further improve patient safety. In a subgroup of patients, other phenotyping methods will be tested: measuring the plasma levels of uracil after a uracil test dose and a uracil breath test after a dose of \[2-13C\] -labeled uracil. To validate these tests, these phenotyping results will be compared with the results of a DPD activity assay (which measures DPD enzyme activity in peripheral blood mononuclear cells), which is considered the gold standard in measuring DPD phenotype.

Study Objectives
This phase II trial compares how well gallium 68-labeled PSMA-11 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) works compared to fluciclovine F18 PET/CT in imaging participants with prostate cancer after surgery that has come back. PET is an established imaging technique that uses small amounts of radioactivity and CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in the body. Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/CT with gallium 68-labeled PSMA-11, may work better than PET/CT with fluciclovine F18 in helping find out how far the prostate cancer has spread.

Study Objectives
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with paclitaxel and bevacizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with metastatic breast cancer and/or breast cancer that has recurred in the chest wall and cannot be removed by surgery. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some find tumor cells and kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Others interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving vorinostat together with paclitaxel and bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.

Study Objectives
This randomized phase III trial is studying gemcitabine and bevacizumab to see how well they work compared to gemcitabine alone in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as bevacizumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of tumor cells by stopping blood flow to the tumor. Combining gemcitabine with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether gemcitabine is more effective with or without bevacizumab in treating pancreatic cancer.

Study Objectives
This phase I trial studies how well autologous NY-ESO-1-specific CD8-positive T lymphocytes (modified T lymphocytes \[T cells\]), chemotherapy, and aldesleukin with or without dendritic cell-targeting lentiviral vector ID-LV305 (LV305) and immunotherapeutic combination product CMB305 (CMB305) work in treating participants with sarcoma that has spread to other places in the body (advanced) or that has come back (recurrent). Modified T cells used in this study are taken from participants, are changed in a laboratory, and may "kill" some types of tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Cyclophosphamide may help the body get ready to receive the modified T cells. Interleukins, such as aldesleukin, are proteins made by white blood cells and other cells in the body and may help regulate immune response. LV305 and CMB305 may help stimulate the immune system. Giving modified T cells, chemotherapy, aldesleukin, LV305, and CMB305 may work better in treating participants with sarcoma.

Study Objectives
Anaesthesia and surgical stress during craniotomy can lead to brain damage and activation of inflammatory response. Consequently inflammatory cytokines (IL6, IL8, IL10) are released. Cell mediated immune balance can increase postoperative complications (infections, wound healing, multiple organ dysfunction). Many studies have shown that volatile anaesthetics reduce systemic and local inflammatory response during major surgery, but animal studies have shown that volatile anaesthetics can induce neuroinflammation (IL6, NF-κB) that leads to decline of cognitive function in rodent and possible human.
Our aim was to investigate how anaesthetic technique for craniotomy influences the release of inflammatory cytokines. Our hypothesis was that when optimal neuroprotective strategies are followed during surgery intravenous anaesthesia attenuates inflammatory response comparing to inhalational anaesthesia.
The investigators included 40 patients anaesthetised with remifentanil based anaesthesia with sevoflurane (S group) or propofol (P group).
Plasma levels of IL6, IL8, IL10 were measured during preoperative, perioperative and postoperative periods of both groups of patients. The investigators also noted emergence parameters, postoperative (pain, shivering, vomiting) and neurological complications after surgery.

| 3,528 |
Study Objectives
This randomized phase II trial studies how giving a drug called levocetirizine to patients with colorectal cancer affects their tumor response to capecitabine and bevacizumab. Capecitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks tumor growth by disrupting DNA and RNA synthesis and repair (cell division and survival). Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody that blocks the ability of tumors to grow and spread by inhibiting the growth of blood vessels that feed them. Patients with colorectal cancer can develop a resistance to the effects of bevacizumab. Levocetirizine may decrease tumor resistance to bevacizumab. Giving bevacizumab, capecitabine, and levocetirizine dihydrochloride together may be an effective treatment for refractory colorectal cancer.

Study Objectives
Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of gemcitabine, paclitaxel, and radiation therapy with or without tipifarnib in treating patients who have locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Tipifarnib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth. Combining chemotherapy and radiation therapy with tipifarnib may be an effective treatment for pancreatic cancer.

* A life expectancy of at least 12 weeks
* Able to comply with the study and its follow-up procedures
* Female participants had to be postmenopausal (24 months of amenorrhea), surgically sterile or agree to use a physical method of contraception. Male participants had to be surgically sterile or agree to use a barrier method of contraception. Women with an intact uterus (unless amenorrhoeic for the last 24 months) had to have a negative pregnancy test (urine or serum) within 3 days prior to erlotinib treatment initiation in the study. Male and female participants had to use effective contraception during the study and for a period of 90 days following the last administration of erlotinib. Acceptable methods of contraception included an established hormonal therapy or intrauterine device for females, and the use of a barrier contraceptive (i.e. diaphragm or condoms)
Exclusion Criteria:
* Pregnant or breast feeding women
* Granulocyte count <1.5 x 109/L and platelet count <100*10^9/L
* Serum bilirubin >1.5 upper limit of normal (ULN)
* Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and/or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 2 * ULN (or >5 * ULN if clearly attributable to liver metastasis)
* Serum creatinine >1.5 ULN or creatinine clearance <60 mL/min
* Known allergy or other adverse reaction to study drug or any other related compound
* Any significant unstable systemic disease (including active infection, grade 4 hypertension, unstable angina, congestive heart failure, hepatic, renal or metabolic disease)
* Prior systemic anti-neoplastic therapy with HER1/EGFR inhibitors (as small molecule or monoclonal antibody therapy)
* Newly diagnosed or not yet definitively treated (i.e. stable disease >= 2 months) CNS metastases or spinal cord compression
* Any significant ophthalmological abnormality, especially those likely to increase the risk of corneal epithelial lesions (the use of contact lenses is not recommended during the study)
* Participants who could not take oral medication, who required intravenous alimentation, had had prior surgical procedures affecting absorption, or had active peptic ulcer disease
* Active cancer other than NSCLC, except for basal cell or squamous cell carcinomas of the skin that have been excised and cured | NCT_ID

Study Objectives
TRX-818 is a new small molecule chemical entity being developed as a potential anti-cancer therapeutic by TaiRx, Inc. TRX-818 is a potent anti-cancer agent in numerous human cancer cell lines. The objectives of this study are to determine the safety profile of TRX-818 including identification of dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and determine the recommended dose and regimen(s) to initiate Phase 2.
Conditions: Carcinoma, Advanced Cancer
Intervention / Treatment:
DRUG: TRX-818 capsules
Location: United States
Study Design and Phases
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
Phase: PHASE1
Primary Purpose: TREATMENT
Allocation: NA
Interventional Model: SINGLE_GROUP
Masking: NONE | Inclusion Criteria:
* Tumor eligibility:
Histologically confirmed advanced malignancies refractory to standard of care therapy, or for whom no standard of care therapy is available.
* Solid tumors must have measurable or evaluable disease as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v. 1.1). Target lesions that have been previously irradiated will not be considered measurable (lesion) unless increase in size is observed following completion of radiation therapy. Leukemia, lymphomas and multiple myeloma must have measurable disease as per response criteria.
* Female or male, 18 years or older.
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0 to 2. Resolution of all acute toxic effects of prior therapy or surgical procedures to grade 1 (except alopecia).
* Adequate organ function as defined by the following criteria:
* Serum aspartate transaminase (AST) and serum alanine transaminase (ALT) <=3 x upper limit of normal (ULN), or AST and ALT <=5 x ULN if liver function abnormalities are due to underlying malignancy
* Total serum bilirubin <=1.5 x ULN (except for patients with documented Gilbert's syndrome)
* Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1500/µL
* Platelets >= 90,000/µL
* Hemoglobin >= 9.0 g/dL
* Serum creatinine <=2.0 x ULN
* Signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the patient (or legally acceptable representative) has been informed of all the pertinent aspects of the trial prior to enrollment.
* Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.
Exclusion Criteria:
Patients presenting with any of the following will not be included in the trial:
* Major surgery, radiation therapy, or systemic anti-cancer therapy within 4 weeks of starting study treatment.
* Prior high-dose chemotherapy requiring hematopoietic stem cell rescue except for patients with lymphoma or myeloma.
* Current treatment on another clinical trial.
* Brain metastases, spinal cord compression, carcinomatous meningitis, or leptomeningeal disease unless appropriately treated and neurologically stable for at least 4 weeks.
* Any of the following within the 12 months prior to starting study treatment: myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina, coronary/peripheral artery bypass graft, congestive heart failure, or cerebrovascular accident including transient ischemic attack; within 6 months prior to starting study treatment for pulmonary embolus. However, upon agreement between the investigator and sponsor, the 6 month post-event-free period for a patient with a pulmonary embolus can be waived if due to advanced cancer. Appropriate treatment with anticoagulants is permitted.
* Hypertension that cannot be controlled by medications (>150/100 mmHg despite optimal medical therapy).
* Current treatment with therapeutic doses of warfarin (low dose warfarin up to 2 mg Per oral (PO) daily for deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis is allowed).
* Known human immunodeficiency virus infection.
* Pregnancy or breastfeeding. Female patients must be surgically sterile or be postmenopausal, or must agree to the use of effective contraception during the period of therapy. All female patients with reproductive potential must have a negative pregnancy test (serum or urine) prior to enrollment. Male patients must be surgically sterile or must agree to use effective contraception during the period of therapy. The definition of effective contraception will be based on the judgment of the principal investigator or a designated associate.
* Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric conditions or laboratory abnormalities that would impart, in the judgment of the investigator and/or sponsor, excess risk associated with study participation or study drug administration, which would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study. | NCT_ID
