Alkylating agents
Chemotherapy +/− Bevacizumab for Breast Cancer
This trial is testing doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, and paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab to see how well they work in treating patients with lymph node-positive or high-risk, lymph node-negative breast cancer.
Trials for Breast Cancer Patients
Alkylating agents
Chemotherapy +/− Bevacizumab for Breast Cancer
This trial is testing doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, and paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab to see how well they work in treating patients with lymph node-positive or high-risk, lymph node-negative breast cancer.
Kinase Inhibitor
Lapatinib + Herceptin for Metastatic Breast Cancer
This trial is testing the effects of combining lapatinib with Herceptin for treating breast cancer that has spread outside the breast. They are also investigating if PET/CT scans could predict who would benefit from the treatment and studying genes and proteins in the tumor tissue that could make the cancer sensitive or resistant to Herceptin and the combination of Herceptin with lapatinib.
Phase 3 Trials
Corticosteroid
Budesonide for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
This trial tests if a triple medication inhaler can improve heart and lung health in high-risk COPD patients better than a dual medication inhaler. Using a single inhaler with three medications has been shown to improve lung function and reduce flare-ups in COPD patients compared to using two medications, but it may increase the risk of pneumonia.
Hormone Therapy
Androgen Ablation Therapy + Chemotherapy for Prostate Cancer
This trial is studying androgen-ablation therapy and docetaxel to see how well they work compared to androgen-ablation therapy alone in treating patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
Alkylating agents
Chemotherapy +/− Bevacizumab for Breast Cancer
This trial is testing doxorubicin hydrochloride, cyclophosphamide, and paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab to see how well they work in treating patients with lymph node-positive or high-risk, lymph node-negative breast cancer.
Trials With No Placebo
Behavioral Intervention
Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy + Psychosocial Treatment for Bladder Pain Syndrome
"This trial aims to understand how different subgroups of patients with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome respond to two common treatments - pelvic floor physical therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy. The goal

Hepatic Arterial Infusion + Chemotherapy for Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases
This trial is testing a new cancer treatment for people who have had part of their liver removed. It's a combination of two drugs given through an IV, plus a third drug given through a pump that goes directly to the liver. The goal is to find the best dose of each drug to give, based on how well the patient tolerates the treatment.
Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor
Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors for Hypereosinophilic Syndrome
This trial is for patients with a rare blood disorder called hypereosinophilic syndrome, who have not responded to standard treatment. The study will test whether the drug imatinib mesylate (Gleevec) is safe and effective in reducing blood eosinophils in these patients.
Corticosteroid
Budesonide for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
This trial tests if a triple medication inhaler can improve heart and lung health in high-risk COPD patients better than a dual medication inhaler. Using a single inhaler with three medications has been shown to improve lung function and reduce flare-ups in COPD patients compared to using two medications, but it may increase the risk of pneumonia.
